When Marriage?
33 #Not a hallucination

"Ma, Pa, Raline's getting divorced"

Raline said as she was having breakfast with her parents.

Papa and Raline's mother also gasped at Raline's words.

"Didn't Papa hear me wrong?"

His father Raline.

"No Pa"

Raline replied briefly. His parents put their spoons on the plate and looked at each other.

"What problems are you having?"

Asked Raline's mother with a face that looked very disappointed.

"Not suitable"

Raline replied, holding back her tears.

"You're not kidding, are you?"

Ask Raline's mother again. Raline just shook her head slowly.

"Jeez Line.."

Raline's father rubbed her face with both palms, then the middle-aged man looked at Raline closely.

"All marriages are not suitable, your marriage is only for corn. That's no excuse..!"

Said Raline's mother. Raline spoke only a thousand languages.

"Is Fandy cheating? so you can't forgive her?"

Ask Raline's dad. Raline shook her head again.

"Not suitable in terms of mana? Don't mess with Raline you just got married to Fandy..! if you're divorced what everyone says..!!!"

Said Raline's mother with an anxious face.

"Mama why the hell...! Anything all what people say..! Here's what people say..!!! What marriages do people say? Divorce what people say? Not pregnant-pregnant what people say..!!!!! All what people say..!! Is Mama more concerned with what others say than Raline's feelings..!!!! Ever thought that Raline was stressed when she asked when to marry? when do you have children? and others..!!! Raline is saturated and fed up with all her..!!!"

Raline hit the table and got out of her chair.

"If Raline always makes Mama and Papa shy, Raline is ready to leave this house..!"

Raline said, then she left the dining room and went to her office.

Mama and her father Raline could only look at each other with a chaotic feeling. They really did not expect, all this time they saw Raline and Fandy are fine and look worthy of her like a very friendly newlywed. Why would they get divorced? This news made the hearts of both Raline's parents become injured.

Raline slammed her car door when she arrived at her office parking lot. Suddenly a feeling of sadness, grief and loss approached him as he crossed the waiting room in his office lobby. Raline is still pictured as Fandy who was sitting waiting for him a few weeks ago. His heart felt very sick and sad mixed into one.

Raline knows this isn't Fandy's fault. Destiny separates the two of them. Raline held back her tears until she reached her office desk. He began to cry in silence, Sinta who saw Raline crying was only able to embrace Raline.

Sinta has received word that Raline is getting a divorce, because a letter from the court was sent to their office. Inevitably, Raline told Sinta. The girl continued to strengthen Raline.

"It looks like I'm just leaving town Sin"

Raline said with tears melting on her cheeks.

"Bak, you don't dong that"

Sinta rubbed Raline's back gently.

"Gue can't handle Sin"

Raline said in a trembling voice. It was obvious that Raline was feeling depressed. Sinta could say nothing more. He just hugged Raline, hoping that his Friend was strong through the trials that Raline was facing.

"Divorce verdict next week Sin. I purposely never came to our court, neither did Fandy. We are not equally strong in facing reality"

Raline said still with her tears flooding both of her cheeks. Sinta just sighed heavily, then hugged Raline tightly.

"Gue's sure you're strong mbak, you're great"

Sinta Whisper. Raline wiped her tears and looked at Sinta with sadness.

"Thank you for the support Sin"

Raline. Sinta simply nodded and hugged Raline back.

Fandy who was in his office just pensively staring at the photos of Raline on his phone. He misses Raline. But Raline didn't want to meet her. Many times Fandy tried to contact Raline, but her messages and calls did not even respond.

Today, that longing is growing. Fandy can't hold it anymore. He decides to meet Raline at the office where Raline works. Fandy snatched his car keys and left the office.

Ask Sinta who is getting ready to go home.

"Slow"

Raline replied briefly.

"Sir, dugem yuk..!"

Sinta said with a seductive smile, Raline just glanced at Sinta lazily.

"My buddy"

Raline said, indifferently.

"Well.. "

Lazily Sinta looked at Raline's gloomy face.

"Yes, I'm home first"

Sinta patted Raline on the shoulder and the girl left their room. Raline was alone in the room. He also tried to find busy by doing his work.

An hour later, Raline was bored. He began to clean his desk and intended to go home. Raline took her bag and stepped towards the elevator.

Raline went back through the waiting room when she just got out of the elevator. Again Raline saw the shadow of Fandy sitting there waiting for her.

"Duh, I'm hallucinating seeing Fandy again"

Raline muttered while shaking her head.

"Come on Raline..! move on..!"

Raline whispered, she tried to strengthen her heart.

He saw the shadow of Fandy standing up and smiling as he looked at himself. Raline tried not to look at the shadow of the man. He felt frustrated with Fandy's images that appeared at will in front of him.

"Home home? I was waiting for you from earlier. I didn't want to bother you, so I decided to wait for you until you came home"

Fandy said as Raline tried to get past him.

Raline stopped her steps and looked at Fandy closely. Then Raline scrunched her forehead and approached Fandy slowly.

"I imagine you can say it anyway..! it's so bad for me..!"

Raline slapped her forehead right in front of Fandy.

Fandy laughed seeing Raline's cute demeanor in his eyes.

"I miss"

Fandy said, looking at Raline's face with longing.

"Oh. My hallucinations are severe..! I have to see a doctor..!"

Raline said, then she left in front of Fandy and went to the lobby exit. Quickly, Fandy held Raline's arm.

"Darling, it's me"

Fandy. Raline was shocked and looked back at Fandy's face carefully.

"Aren't you a shadow?"

Raline's face looks so cute when she can't believe that Fandy standing in front of her is the real Fandy.

Fandy just nodded and gently stroked Raline's hair. Raline was still stunned to see Fandy, then gradually she began to cry and hugged Fandy tightly.

"I thought I was hallucinating"

Raline said while in Fandy's arms.

"I miss, I can't hold her back. I'm sorry if you don't like me seeing you"

Fandy whispered in Raline's ear. Raline was speechless, she just cried and slapped Fandy's chest with a fist many times.

Raline misses, but she doesn't know how to reveal her. His cries, will never lie. He always wanted Fandy to be around him.

"I want to go out with you, just this once"

Fandy said. Raline looked at the man's face with a puddle of her tears. Then he nodded with certainty.

"Let's take a walk"

Raline said excitedly.

Fandy hugs Raline out of his office. Then he took Raline wherever the wheels of his car would take them both.
