The widow is my wife
There's No Chance

"Son Darius knows Luna, brother?" Jenifer asks Chandra after Luna complies with Darius' desire to speak together on Chandra's porch.

"Know.. They used to be neighbors." replied Chandra flatly.

"Ooh.." Jenifer and Emily round their mouths together.

***

Sitting on a different chair with the bulkhead of a small table in the middle is where Darius and Luna are now silent.

The small table was like the bulkhead now built by Luna, to not look as much as possible at the man who had once filled the recesses of her heart.

In fact, her husband told her this afternoon that he still expected her to be his wife.

What exactly did Darius want with him? Why did she tell this to her husband.

Luna looked straight ahead, where the house guards were passing by.

"Luna." called Darius after a long silence.

"What, Brother?" asked Luna while looking down at the link of her fingers.

"I'm sorry." Darius continued to look at the woman who had not looked at him at all.

In Darius's mind, Luna behaved like that because she had left before.

When the truth happened, Luna like that because she wanted to keep the heart of her husband, who is none other than her own best friend.

"Make what, brother? Brother has nothing wrong." Luna said with a fixed bow.

"I have a big mistake with you." Darius said standing up and sat down in front of Luna to reach for the beautiful face of the woman who still fills her heart.

"Stand up, brother, please.. Don't be like this." Luna still did not want to look at Darius, the beautiful woman turned to the side to avoid meeting Darius.

Darius clasped Luna's hand and turned first to the entrance of Chandra's house, worried that his best friend would see him. "I'm sorry, Lun." she asked.

Feeling her hand held so gently but also firmly by Darius, Luna immediately took it off and hid her hand under her thigh.

She didn't want her husband to misunderstand.

"I'd be sorry if Big Brother wants to sit in the chair that Big Brother was sitting in." firmly Luna kept looking to the side.

Darius sighed softly, then stood up and sat down on the chair where Luna was staring at the chair.

His hope was shattered as he sat down and it turned out that Luna looked down.

"If you forgive me, look me in the eye, Lun. I want to see you." asked Darius in his weak voice, weak because he had lost to having a beautiful woman sitting next to him.

"Didn't you just see me?" Luna asked sarcasm.

"It's not like this, Lun. I want to look at your clear eyeballs which always amaze me a long time ago." urged Darius with his weak voice which finally made Luna not have the heart to look at him.

The two did not realize that Chandra was now standing beside the door, hearing Darius's weak voice filled with pleading tones.

In Chandra's current mind, did his wife not respond to Darius' words to make him so pleading?

In his silence hearing the conversation of his wife and best friend, Chandra smiled wryly.

"Give me a chance, Lun." Darius said that when he could see Luna's clear eyeballs, the eyeballs could always make him think of nothing but wanting to have them.

"What chance did you mean?" ask Luna flat.

"That will never happen, sister." said Luna and stood up.

"Why, Lun?" Darius asked by blocking Luna's hand.

"Remove my brother's hand from mine. Brother forgot where is Brother now? Whose sister's house? And why am I here? If you know the answer, you will not be able to say something like that with me." replied Luna sarcas then took Darius' hand off her arm and walked into Chandra's house.

The hand of Darius that was released by Luna hung in the air, along with his heart that seemed to be out of shape to find the fact that the woman had not loved him at all let alone give him the opportunity to always be together.

"Let's go in, Ri. Mom was waiting." said Chandra from the side of the door to throw Darius from the daydream and his broken heart was staring at the door that had been passed by Luna.

Darius was seen rubbing the edge of his eyes, then flatly touching. "Yes, Ndra." The man stepped inside Chandra's house.

***

"How long have you been in Indonesia, Us?" Emily asked after Darius sat down on the available chair next to Jenifer.

Back to Luna. And the woman again did not want to look at him.

Luna was seen serving her husband so well and dearly, until he smelled something from the cuisine that made him seem to want to nausea but as much as possible he could bear to remember the rules of eating set by Chandra while in Bandung first, to him.

"If I were to be your husband, maybe I would be happy to get that kind of attention from you, Lun." Darius' inner self unblinkingly looked at Luna who was not paying any attention to him at all.

"us?" call Emily back when she sees the man always staring at his daughter-in-law.

"Yes Aunt.. What's up?" darius asked shortly after waking up from his daydream.

"How long have you been in Indonesia?" Emily repeated her question.

"I'm in Indonesia looking for the woman I always loved and still loved long ago, Tan." she replied guiltlessly and her gaze turned to Luna.

Luna's head suddenly felt stiff to just look up to hear a statement from Darius.

Chandra who had seen the direction of Darius's gaze also sighed, wanting to scold his best friend, but he really appreciated his friendship.

Moreover, the woman who had been his wife who had long been loved by his best friend, said firmly if she had loved him.

So, what's he to be afraid of?

"Oh yeah? Who's that woman, Us? Have you found it?" ask Emily again when Bi Asih is still preparing dinner for her.

"Already, Aunt. That woman I've found after all these years." replied Darius with a fixed lead to Luna.

"Wow.. For years. Then you love her so much, sister?" jenifer asked who looked amazed by Darius who loved women that deep.

Jenifer who has never loved a man like Darius loves his woman, making her a little curious.

And they did not see Chandra's reddened face holding back anger.

"Very.. I love her so much, Jen. And maybe he will continue to love her. Because it was only with him that I felt what love was." explained Darius, fixedly staring at Luna.

"Lwuuuhhh.. I want you to get a guy like Kak Darius who loves women so much.." Jenifer chattered which made Chandra sigh slowly.

"Not to dream like that, Jen

Because it'll just be your imagination. The true person loves. He will let go of his woman if the woman already has her own way. Because Love doesn't have to have." asserted Chandra who made everything quiet and Luna, the beautiful woman looked down deeper and Chandra who seemed to know his wife was not okay, stretched out his hand to hold the hand of his wife under the table to simply strengthen it.

Seriate..
