The Steel-Cared Rose
Absurd
The elevator door that was about to close opened up again.
“You?” Ask Haliza.
“Why are you here?”Ask Ahkam cynically.
“Can I log in?”
“You better wait for the next elevator.” Tukas Ahkam.
“Lift is still empty just filled with four people. Five with me. Why am I waiting for the next elevator?”
The man entered the elevator and pushed the door shut. Squeeze the floor where the breakfast buffet is located.
Suddenly silent atmosphere. The angry and uncomfortable look on Ahkam's face.
“You're following us?” He said with a fierce tone.
“What am I doing following you? Less work.”
“Then why are you here?”
“It looks like anyone who can afford the price of a hotel here. Can stay here.”
“What? You stay here?”
“One coincidence!” Ceplos Haliza with her charms.
“Yeah, what a coincidence.” Dylan smiled.
“You stay in what room?” Ask Haliza.
“What are you asking for her room? We met by accident. Accidentally a hotel. And that doesn't mean anything!” Ahkam ketus.
“306.”
“I 303. Jeez is only three rooms apart?”
Elevator door opens. They had arrived at the dining room floor which provided a buffet breakfast.
“It's not strange that we don't eat together.” Haliza said, “like don't know each other.”
“You just calm down. Can you not anyway?” Ahkam.
Haliza walked away from Ahkam and tried not to think about anything.
Go to breakfast buffet. Take food and drink. Leaving Ahkam with their children.
Choose a rather hidden table. The corner. The corner of the room with the view is beautifully spread in front of it.
“Can I join you?”
Haliza turned and nodded her head.
“Thank you.”
“Sama-sama.” Haliza said while drinking her cold orange juice drink.
“We meet again. Coincidence.”
“Yeah.” Sahut Haliza. Biting toast that has been smeared butter and fruit jam. Chew it out while enjoying the view in front of him.
“Why are you sitting alone?”
“Gak nothing.”
“Gak join Ahkam and your children?”
“I and Ahkam are fighting.” Haliza.
“But why?”
“Because of you.”
“I?” Dylan looked at Haliza's face.
“We accidentally met And everything went awry.”
“Ahkam feeling distracted?”
“How do you think?” Haliza bit her toast. Slowly chew.
Dylan bribed his chicken porridge. Drink the warm sweet tea.
“Why don't you let Ahkam be with his kids?”
“You mean?”
“I'm sorry if it made you guys quarrel. It might be uncomfortable for you to spend time with him.”
“Yeah. I can't stand his cynical attitude. Passive aggression. His anger at me.”
“Maybe his anger was directed at me. How about we take a walk?”
Haliza barely chokes, “what?”
“I will save you from circumstances that make you uncomfortable and wrong.”
“Will Ahkam not be angry if I take a walk with you.”
“You are divorced. You are free to do anything and there is no obligation to obey let alone follow it. Especially if you don't feel comfortable.”
“I just want him to understand me more.”
“If he really understands you. You will not get divorced. She won't fall in love again with Hana.”
“You mean, Hana understands it better than me?”
“At least he can more freely decide according to his own will compared to you.”
“Yeah, you're right. Hana doesn't mind being polygamous. He also freed Ahkam to spend time with me and our children. But he also often jealous me.”
“That's because she loves Ahkam so much. You're not stupid!”
Haliza was stunned to hear Dylan's words.
“Why is jealousy synonymous with love? Could it be because it is too possessive?”
“Love it is a taste. It's the same when you say why is chili spicy? Is there a chilli that is not spicy? Is there love without jealousy?”
“They're at Sinta's house with Dean and Emier. I feel alienated. If only, there were you, the atmosphere would be more comfortable. I feel like a sickle between the two of them.”
"Dean and Sinta were very kind, friendly and warm. They won't be uncomfortable with you.”
“They are very good. Our relationship is like a brother. It's just that I feel like a thorn in the flesh in the middle of them all.”
“Your children seem to have forgiven her mother. They also feel very comfortable with Sinta.”
“Yeah, for Sinta his children are everything. My relationship with Dean can be adjusted. With the existence of Emier certainly can not Sinta come back to me again. I also will not have the heart to compete with children as sweet, handsome and smart as that.”
“Yeah, Emier is stunning. Humble, friendly and considerate. Like both his parents.”
“Me and Sinta were over when Dean took it back from my side. All the more impossible once they have Emier. To me, Sinta is my sister. I told Dean once when I was his lawyer. I thought, that's how our relationship is.”
“Why are your feelings changing so quickly? You can't be trusted.”
“What do you mean can't be trusted?”
“You said that you love her and do not know whether to forget her or not.”
“Sinta is a very good woman, attractive also smart. Mother and wife are almost perfect. I think I love him very much. I like his perfection. Maybe it's more precisely.”
“I can't understand what you mean? I thought you were curious about my attitude that just changed.”
“You're like a kid. Not having a firm and easily changing attitude. I also don't know why I like you.”
“Because you feel rejected. Don't you have a Narcissistic personality?”
Kontan Dylan laughed, almost melting his tears.
“Am I manipulative?” Tanya spent her laughter.
“Unfortunately not.”
Dylan laughs again, “suka lied?”
“Precisely you are too honest.”
Dylan's laughter broke back.
“I wish you'd flipped me. I don't know your true feelings. Maybe I won't return our engagement ring thinking you like me.”
Dylan clasped Haliza's hand. Haliza's face was red. Staring at his face until it makes Haliza to be careless.
“You know every change in my feelings is not a fabrication let alone a trick. I was completely unaware of my feelings for you because I thought I still liked Sinta.”
A pair of eyes from a distance looked at the two with a huffed face.
“I'm afraid you'll be like Ahkam. What if you betray me or change back?”
“My feelings don't change like a chameleon. Don't you misunderstand me. We met when you were hurt by Ahkam's betrayal. And make me your escape.”
“I bother you. You've never had lyrics with women. And if you want, there will be a lot of women who like you. Be your girlfriend or wife. But you're still loyal to your ex-wife. Put on horse glasses. You're like an oasis in the middle of the desert. In the middle of the trust issue I experienced. You are the antidote. The hope that a real man who has true love is not a delusion.”
“Yeah, I thought Sinta was my true love until I realized my feelings.”
“I don't want to talk about this.”
“Yeah, I know. All this confuses you.”
“Yeah.”
Sharifah came to his mother's desk.
“Halo, om!” Sweep friendly.
“Join with us.” Take Dylan to Sharifah.
“Om only join us. Invite mom to join.” Take it to Dylan.
“You guys are here.”
“Bu, are you coming with us? Why did you just leave? You're mad at dad?”
“I want to go for a walk myself. You're going for a walk three. My mood has become damaged.”
“Bu! Why are you always so emotional?”
“Already! I don't want to discuss this.”
“You don't have to worry, sweet boy. I'll accompany your mother.”
“Om will accompany mom?”
“Yeah.”
“Good.” Sharifah turned her body. Walk towards his father and sister. Speaking to his father, the three of them moved out of their seats. Then walk out.
