THE WOMAN (END)

THE WOMAN (END)
•77


When living life, every human being will definitely get a variety of trials.


Humans are tested with various difficulties, and no one escapes the ordeal.


I just realized, turns out there is also an ordeal wrapped in something so beautiful and fun.


It makes us forget ourselves, makes us lose our way and ultimately get lost.


Angry, disappointed, even desperate.Sometimes so the impingement when we fail to pass the ordeal.and in the end the dead end that we always want to take as the answer.


My meeting with Ms. Ayu today, I keep meetings. Let everything be a secret between me and her.


Although I'm not sure this secret will end well if I keep it hidden.


I know Sandy and Bu Ayu's relationship is not going well.


And when I tell Sandy everything, she's gonna hate her aunt even more. I don't want any of that to happen, I don't want Sandy to be the bad guy just to be on my side.


There are no tears tonight, although I know my heart feels tight and disappointed, but what Ayu said to me this afternoon was the truth.


I do not deserve to be side by side with Sandy mas. Whatever I do, it is still difficult to be equal to him.


I turned to Andi who was sleeping.Today she told me a lot about her school.Make me forget for a moment about the complexity of my love story.


My life I bet for Andi. child just my way, because he was I was still able to survive a life that sometimes makes me almost give up.


It feels like all my problems out there are nothing, as long as Andi's okay.


"We can get through it all!" I promised myself and Andi.


PINGING!


Amidst my confusion, a short message suddenly came in.


I opened my phone listlessly.


#Where is tea? why don't you pick up my phone!


#Please don't make me anxious!"


Seeing that series of messages instantly made my heart ache.


"Come on Eyebrows, don't be weak!" my sigh.


#Sorry mas, back home from work I overslept.


Short reply.


I hope Sandy doesn't suspect my wild answer.


Drrr...


Calm Quiet Eyebrows...


It's just a regular phone call, don't be suspicious.


Be calm...


I adjusted my breath before receiving a phone call from him.


"Assalamualaikum mas," I puked first. I hope my voice does not sound chaotic.


"Moskalamic. Sorry I called this late. I'm worried!" saith.


"I am fine, mas. Sandy doesn't have to worry!" I tried to convince her


"The sound of Eyebrow tea sounds strange! eyebrow tea sure, eyebrow tea alright? need me to go home now?!" jest.


I rubbed my face in a rage.


"Don't make it late. What do the neighbors say if they see Sandy's mas visiting this night!" prevent me quick.


"Sandy's mom is starting to get rich! Better mas Sandy break, tomorrow definitely have to go to the office. I also have to work!" sahutku.


"You mean I sleep, that means you ask me to take a sleeping pill every tea day!" his sigh sounded lazy.


"Sandy's taking sleeping pills?" I was surprised.


"Hm, I'm having a hard time sleeping lately.a day I can only sleep for 3 hours." she explained.


"Mas Sandy don't worry me! all day long Sandy why not sleep but work?" my search.


"Yes think you're tea.What else? if you hadn't worked, I would have seen you every day!"


"Sandy's mom should take a break, don't neglect her health! mas Sandy must remember, many people are dependent on Sandy mas.especially the employees of Sandy mas."


I tried to remind him that his life not only belongs to him, but also the rights of others. People who need help in taking care of work in the office.


"Had the need for me so much was you, I would have taken great care of myself!" goda.


"Mas Sandy's an adult, I don't need to explain how much I need Sandy's mas." I held my breath at the end of the sentence I said, and to be honest, it hurt a lot.


Silent.


For a moment we were preoccupied with our own thoughts without any intention of answering or asking anything.


"I love you so much tea! I'm not kidding! I really love you."


I shut my mouth strong enough to hope my stuffing does not echo and until it is swallowed.


I'm sorry, but loving you is so hard, and I'm not sure if I'm capable of maintaining that love.


Our conversation ended after I lied if I was already very sleepy.


And I finally passed midnight with tears in my eyes.


Must be how I behave to Sandy.


Should I leave my love that just blossomed?


Or I dare to face it, even though I know it will be very painful later.

"Mama why? eyes swollen?" Andi's chirps that seemed to have been watching me since.


"Maybe mom has sore eyes baby!"


I lied to Andi again. I can't even explain what happened to my eyes like this.


"Mama's taking ma'am! Later his eye pain nular loh," he ordered plain.


"Yes son. later after work mom stopped by the pharmacy to buy medicine" I rubbed her cheek gently.


Had it been this easy I lied in front of Sandy, it would have been okay when we met.


THE BIMPP!


The sound of the car horn from the outside made me and Andi turn at the same time.


"Whose car sounds?" Andi kept her breakfast and ran towards the terrace.


"Yeyyy.. Sandy's coming!" shouted enthusiastically.


Instantly I panicked how could Sandy come without telling me first.


I massaged both my eyes nervously.how to hide my eyes that are easy to swell after crying this.


Without a second thought, I immediately ran into the room looking for something.
