POV NARA'S
We got out of the place I lived in since coming back from Korea. As there were no motorbikes or other vehicles, we exited the house on foot, until we arrived at a bridge. My feet are tired. I decided to stop and sit on the side of the bridge. I kept quiet, without talking to M. He didn't say anything either, and just followed me with his bag plus my suitcase. We sat on the road carrying a lot of stuff. I was confused what we were going to do, until I heard M's voice.
“Nara, you can see right. There are a lot of men interested in you. You do not need to go back to the man who always hurt you,” M said his dislike of my intention to keep the oath I made with Pradipta. I don't know, maybe he felt disappointed in me for wasting what I sacrificed. Another reason, moreover? It's impossible because he's jealous. I tried to dive into M's heart. I looked at him directly in his eyes.
“You angry?”askinya. Maybe he thinks I'm mad at him, and I feel like he's mad at me. Probably because I almost never looked at him like that. I bowed my head and tried to shift my thoughts and guilt. But M seems to have been mistaken. He seems to be the one who is angry. I also felt the same, that the situation between us was uncomfortable.
“Oke, it's up to Nara. Whatever Nara wants, just go for it. Right now all I need is a Pradipta and July wedding that is off,” he said. Then he took me away from the sidewalk.
the time. Not to mention the existence of M beside me. Is M crazy? Is it not easier to stay in a hotel? I looked at M with a pus. If it's prank, I really don't like it.
“You want to stay here right?” ask M when he arrived in front of the Hermawan residence. I still don't understand M's mind. Was he so angry and did this to me? Whether he'll leave me here with Pradipta and his family, who I don't know will react to when I find out where I am. Is he going to leave me now? Realizing M could have left me tonight, my heart ached. I'm not ready to lose him. Even I think I'm more prepared to lose my husband than I am to lose M. Pain and tightness felt my chest. I unconsciously hugged M while crying. I'm like
looking for comfort while in the chest of the man. I can't lose it now. I continued to cry until I finally realized I was sitting on M's lap while hugged tightly. I put my eyes around. Apparently I was at the patrol post when I last cried and saw all the reality about Pradipta and July in the car a year ago. I looked at M and stood up while wiping my tears. We both said nothing. M's large hand gently stroked my head, calming. After I calmed down he stood up extending his hand to me.
I'm holding M. He nodded as if to convince me. I took her hand and then pulled me up. After that he led me to walk on the street lit by street lights. The sky from earlier had already blackened. We stopped at a beautiful little house not far from the residence of Hermawan. M opened a small fence there that was unlocked. M opened the door and entered the house. He put our stuff in the living room that seemed to have just been cleaned. Still looks like there's a pile of coversheets in the corner. This house looks long uninhabited but is quite clean and complete. M didn't say anything. He just took me to a pretty big room and put my stuff there, saying it's my room now. He showed me the bathroom and asked me to rest.
