THE WOMAN (END)
•113

Protecting our loved ones is not easy. Keeping them safe turns out to be very difficult.

Sometimes the problem lurks from within the relationship itself.

These few days I was busy working, leaving for a moment my relationship with Eyebrow. She must be wondering where I'm going, why I didn't call her, because I honestly did all this to marry her. I wanted to prepare myself as best I could, so that when we were together, I wanted to prepare myself, there will be no more obstacles to disturb us, I thought.

Until one morning, I accidentally picked up Alis to drive her to work.at first I did not suspect until I saw there was a little awkwardness. Eyebrows said she had sore eyes so she had to wear glasses because her eyes were swollen, but I think she kept something else that she was trying to hide from me.

I can't force her to be honest, because it's her right not to tell a story even though I'm really worried about her condition.

Upon arriving at the store, I was surprised by the presence of Ivan who also just arrived there.

And that's when I started to feel weird.

A few days ago, I heard from Ivan's office staff that he was running a business outside the office.

Could this shop be his?

In the end I knew too, if Eyebrows worked in Ivan's tavern.

Angry of course, why didn't he try to be honest with me about Ivan?

I know Ivan, I understand his nature.he always wanted to interfere with what I had and what was by my side. It was enough that my relationship just ended with Vina. I don't want Ivan to get close to Eyebrows either.

Especially if you remember what bi Marni said a few days ago.

Ivan was so attentive to Eyebrows, that he did not even give up his eyes on the woman.Is it possible that Ivan also liked Eyebrows? that's right!

I breathe heavily.

My emotions really couldn't stand it, I dragged Eyebrows into the apartment. Until there was a debate between us, I was really jealous when I found out that Eyebrows didn't dare to be honest with me about Ivan. is he going to act like Vina? hiding their close relationship behind me?

The cantaloupes! I said words that might offend her, so Alis got angry and left my apartment.

I was silent at the end.

The rest of the anger is still hunting me, to hell with the anger! shouldn't I be angry? he's the one who kept all that from me?

I was silent for quite a while, after a few minutes my anger turned to worry.

I turned my eyes to the apartment door that was still open. What if something happened to Alis? he doesn't know this place, what if he gets lost.

"Damn!" I snorted and got out of the apartment and immediately searched for her whereabouts.

I'm sorry, I don't want Alis to think of me as temperamentally like her ex-husband, even though I couldn't control my emotions.

I ran out of the parking lot.

"Surely you'll find a beautiful woman in brown clothes, sir?" the sound of the security guard made me look at him questioningly.

"He just walked that way!" inexplicably.

I immediately ran, hoping the Eyebrows would still be at the stop or on the road.

I spread my gaze around the place that is dominated by the shop.there is no figure that I look for, where does Eyebrow go? there's no way he's taking the bus. The bus is very rare, or maybe he's taking a taxi? my mind wondered with a slow pace as my legs started to hurt.

I stopped my steps, a woman was bowed lethargic at one of the stops that were indeed very quiet vehicle. There was a feeling of relief and also regret without me realizing I had hurt her to this extent.

"Why is he still here? Can't go home?" I ventured to ask in a mocking tone, obviously I'd be proud if he knew I was so worried about him just now.

Eyebrows looked up, his innocent facial look made me feel even more guilty.

"I forgot my wallet" he looked stupid.

Without saying much, I clenched his body tightly.I saw myself who had so badly hurt him.

I'm sorry,.. !

I have been suffering for two months with my sore feet. But I am grateful, thanks to My Eyebrow pain gradually began to improve, some scars on my body was almost disappeared thanks to regular skin care.

It seems that my time wasted yesterday, I must immediately replace it with more productive activities.

The stock market is on the rise lately, even some of my stocks have also soared up. that's how I heard from Nita this morning.

It's time to re-establish relationships with business partners out there. Building business partnerships to re-place my company in the highest caste, just like you ever did.

If he can, I can too.

"Nita, please connect me with Mr. Samuel!" my orders.

While waiting for the arrival of doctor Hasan, I busied myself to do teleconfrens with some clients from abroad.

TOKKS..

TOKKS....

"Lake in!"

"Tumben once, you asked me outside the schedule of the visit? did something happen?!" Doctor Hasan came in and walked towards me.

"Looks like there's a little problem with my legs, doc," I then got up and sat down on the couch.

Doctor Hasan then sat down, watching my legs.

"Try releasing!" his orders asked me to take off the drill pants.

His hands pressed against the area of my knee that was still painful.

"Yes it. Right there it hurts so much!" my moans

"If you're not really strong yet, don't push yourself too much!" he murmured with a fixed gaze focused on my feet.

"I want to marry doc, so I have to work hard" I said casually

Doctor Hasan was stunned for a moment, then looked up at me a little in shock.

"really? is that unlucky woman Eyebrow?" his god in disbelief.

"I forced her to want to marry me. If not Eyebrows, where there are women who want to marry a disabled man like me" I sighed deeply.

"You have to take good care of him. all this time he has suffered a lot with his life." said doctor Hasan as if he knew something.

"Doctors seem to know Eyebrows well?" my search.

"She's only been to the hospital a few times, but she asked me to keep it a secret from you. She's a very nice woman." Hasan's doctor took out some medical supplies to make sure my feet were fine.

"He's going to the hospital? wh why? did he get sick without my knowledge?" selorohku.

Of course I was worried, all this time Eyebrows hid a lot of important things from me. Even the attitude of aunt Ayu who blatantly asked her to stay away from me she kept it a secret from me. It could be that she was sick or something. I looked closely at Doctor Hasan.

"No. she wasn't sick, only when Andi had a fever she came to me once and asked me to keep it a secret from you. She didn't want to make you worry san." she explained.

I stared at the gamang of both my legs.he did that for sure when I was still lying sick, he did not want to make me anxious, so he always hid whatever happened to him from me.

"He did the same thing, too, when aunt Ayu threatened him." I muttered

"Turkey threatened? why?"

I turned my gaze to the open window on the left side. Honestly I was worried about what Aunty Ayu did to Eyebrows. I was afraid her words affected Eyebrows and made the woman hurt.

"Tante Ayu has always considered that Eyebrows are not worth the Hadiwijaya family." I replied

Doctor Hasan got up and kept his equipment.

"He was always like that, never changed. Even when your father was dating your mother.he was always looking for a way to break their relationship." Hasan's doctor's gaze seemed to glare far into the past.

"Hopefully he didn't do anything harmful to Eyebrows" he continued, looking at me confidently, as if warning that what he feared could have happened.

"Hopefully," I replied.

"It looks like your leg muscles are still very stiff, if forced to walk or stand for too long it will be very painful and disturbing.I suggest you work at home only, just, no need to go to the office too often, even if you still want to marry Eyebrows." he said.

"Doctor don't scare me!" hisisku.

"Excuse me, lunch is ready!" bi Marni's voice made us turn at the same time towards the door.

"We better have lunch first. After that, the doctor can curse me again" said I waltzed out of the room followed by doctor Hasan who unraveled his loud laughter.

Our meeting ended with lunch and a casual chat about work.There is nothing more fun than telling stories about what we've been through to people we trust. as if the burden on the shoulders decreases even if only slightly.
