The Second Woman's Regret
Bang Andre Disappeared

It's too early to go back to Kansas. That's why we decided to take a walk in the mall first without a clear purpose. Sometimes we talk about gifts, dowries and wedding rings. Bang Andre wants to give my best. He had prepared everything because this marriage had long been desired.

"Bang, get in there yuk," I pulled Andre's bang arm towards play ground. Where the kids play. Even though we didn't bring a child, I felt like I wanted to go there, just look around. Those children are a source of happiness, they can make the person who sees them happy. Their laughter was sincere, as well as her smile and affection.

Brucks. Someone bumped into me, a little girl I thought was seven.

"Aren't you okay, baby?" I asked, while helping him stand up.

"Nothing Auntie." she was wailing left and right, like looking for someone.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Papa, Aunt came here as a papa, right?"

"Papa? Oh no, Auntie came here the same ..." it was my turn to wander around looking for the figure of Andre bang. It was like we were walking together, but why did it suddenly disappear now. Now, the boy and I were both looking, but before long because someone called him, it seemed like the nurse was accompanying him, the child immediately passed by without saying goodbye to me.

"Where's the gate?" I asked when the phone call was connected.

"Sorry sorry, there was a call from the office so we had to hurry to leave. Are you going home by yourself? I'll call again." he said, then hung up.

How strange. This was the third time that Andre bang had behaved like this, suddenly disappearing without saying goodbye. It doesn't make sense not to be alone even though the matter is very sudden. How long does it take to talk to me?

I'm going back to kosan. Not directly to my room, but to Giya's room, a college friend who also costs one with me. He was the one who introduced me to bang Andre, not only that, he also betrothed us until finally my heart was open as well.

"Bang Andre, he's done this three times. Suddenly it just disappeared." I said, opening the conversation.

"Where are you going?" ask Giya.

"It has. He said there was an important job, yesterday there was also a sudden important business."

"Well, that already knows the reason. What else is Ra?"

"Sepentient and important what the hell until no time to say goodbye. You know, we're in one place, unless we're in another. That feels so weird."

"So maybe he was busy, didn't have time to say anything. Why the hell is Ra in trouble?"

"Hufffff, I hope that what you and he say is true."

"Then?"

"Is there anything I don't know about him yet? Or something he's hiding. Something important?"

"There's nothing like it, like,"

"You sure?"

"Yep. If you are still wondering why not just do it. After all, you guys want to get married, it should have been open to each other. Aren't you?"

"Yes. Then I'll say hi Gi." I left Giya's room to my room. Trying to calm down like Giya said. Everything's gonna be fine. Bang Andre can not hide something, besides I can not be prejudiced, after all he never did anything wrong to me, he always tried to do his best. If the problem suddenly he left may be true said Giya, there are people who are sometimes in precarious conditions forget to the people around him.

Lunch time is coming to an end, I hurriedly returned to the office. Just about to enter, in the lobby, someone blocked my step.

I was silent for a moment. "Oh yes, Mr. Saka," I said.

"Yep right. I'm so happy that Tira still remembers me."

"What's up, sir? I'm in a hurry, lunchtime's over."

"Oh, sorry if I interfered. I want to ask about the answer mbak to my offer at that time? I've tried contacting mbak but there's no reply."

I deliberately did not answer messages or phone calls from him because he did not want to move work. I'm comfortable here. Besides, only this time I know there is a company director who directly hires directly. Totally suspicious. Maybe the company is not good or just a scam.

"I'm sorry sir, but I don't seem interested because I'm comfortable working here." I said. "But later I will help spread this vacancy to my newly graduated friends. Maybe something's right."

Mr. Saka looks disappointed, but I can't fulfill his wish. Pleasing others at the expense of your own future. It's completely beyond my ability. Not wanting to waste any more time, I hurried to leave him.

"Tira, that's Mr. Saka, right?" mr. Robin, my manager pointed to the man.

"Eh, yes sir. You know?" My toot. Can't believe it turns out he's famous, too., a pack of Robin's only know him. It means it's broad too.

"Where do you know?"

"That time was unintentionally acquaintance, sir."

"Oh, you better not get too close to him Ra."

"Well, why sir? He trickster? Or what?"

"No. It's not. No need to discuss. Oh yes, I want to ask, next weekend you have no event? I want to take you to dinner."

"Sorry sir, I want to go home for the weekend because I want a proposal."

"Huh, proposal? You want to marry Ra?"

"InshaAllah sir." Mr. Robin looked disappointed, he hurriedly left me.

[Actually, is there something you're hiding from me?] I sent a message to bang Andre, actually I've calmed down, but it takes affirmation from him that we will be fine. There's nothing I need to worry about. Maybe this is a test for us ahead of the wedding. People say, towards the marriage there is usually a very great test that becomes a reinforcement or even determination to continue or retreat.

"Ra, you can't believe that I love you so much. I'm not gonna hurt you. I will try to make you happy, Ra. Do not doubt my love, for you are the only woman on earth whom I love. Really Ra." bang Andre called right away after reading my message. He was very worried if I doubted him. That's why I finally became convinced that he really loved me.

No, I'm just making sure. I'm sure you love me, and that's why I can fall in love with you." I said.

"Ra, please don't doubt my sincerity huh. I'm ready to marry you. I'm ready to leave this whole world as long as it's with you. Please Ra."

"Yes bang."

"You don't leave me, if you leave me then I'd rather die."

"Astagfirullah bang, don't be. I'm not leaving brother."

Our conversation is over. I smiled with satisfaction at the statement of bang Andre. Just like her, I love her a lot. Ever since there was her in my life, I've been more and more convinced that love really exists.
