Why Breakup?
Ep.51: Overthinking
“What do you say Bella?”
Mentari looked up, smiled at Angga who had just completed his therapy and was currently Bella's turn so they waited now.
“You know not, yes?” Mentari tapped his index finger on his chin, seemed to joke with Angga who immediately cut him made.
Mentari chuckled, handing over the pieces of fruit he had prepared for Angga. “Sto be eaten, yes.” Angga nodded, starting to enjoy the fruit.
“So, what are you talking about?”
“I didn't say anything. I'm just convinced Bella that she has to be strong and be able to get through this.”
“Bella complains to you?”
Mentari shook his head, “Not complaining actually, but maybe he again felt down aja and I think the decision he made to do ngutarain uneknya it was the right decision because if he was just silent, looking at everything ourselves, we don't know what he can do. And, I don't want anything bad until it happens.”
Angga smiled happily to hear it, he could not be separated to look at Mentari with admiration. “Still, yes, Tar you already care about Bella.” Angga grabbed Mentari's hand, grasped it.
“I've known Bella for a long time and she's like a real sister to me. I can't possibly dong barin he slumped alone, so as much as possible I've always been there for him at times like this.”
Angga nodded, “What happened to me?”
“Yes, that. If not, how could I be here now.”
Angga smiled happily to hear it, “Still, yes. Thanks because you always accept me with all my shortcomings.” said Angga who replied with a smile by Mentari.
“I will always be there for you, Ga. Whatever your condition.”
“I believe it.”
***
The days passed so quickly, all kinds of therapy for the recovery of Angga and Bella was done, but no significant results were seen, the condition of the two is still the same, more precisely, the state of Angga. I don't know for what reason, even though the therapy they do the same but the effects that occur in Bella are much more pronounced. Little by little, there began to be a little movement in Bella's legs, there was a little sense that began to be felt when the paralyzed leg was touched.
“Kak Dance, look!”
Mentari turned her head, approached Bella and rested before the woman, staring fixedly at something that Bella was showing her. His feet began to move.
Bella smiled broadly, looking at Mentari as well as her toes which she moved enthusiastically. “Can be tight motion, sis.” says Bella happy.
“MasyaAllah... Oh, right, Bell. Little by little his nerves start working again and I'm sure you'll soon recover.”
Bella could not hide her sense of hilarity, she immediately hugged Mentari who just made the woman surprised to make, almost disgusted because not ready with Bella's sudden embrace.
“Bell?” Mentari rubbed softly on Bella's back which shook quite violently.
Bella sobs, “Still, brother. Thank you for never stopping to convince me that I can heal. Thanks for being there for Bella. Thanks brother..”
Smiling knots, he opened his eyes which were heating up. He's not crying right now, just enough Bella and she's gonna calm him down.
Mentari nodded her head, she broke the embrace slowly, smilingly looking at Bella. Her hands stretched out to wipe away the woman's tears and hugged Bella again. “Yakin continue, yes, Bell. Miracles from God must exist. You have to believe it.” said Mentari who is owned by Bella.
Bella is sure of that.
And, while Mentari was happy with Bella's confidence that over time grew, he was now made sad by the situation that Angga was facing. Bella who has shown there is progress, but not with Angga who is still the same. This of course makes Angga sad and pessimistic.
“Ga, what else is it?”
Mentari approached Angga who was sitting on the balcony alone staring at the expanse of the sky so bright today.
Angga smiled faintly welcoming Mentari, she shook her head slowly. “Gak ngapa-ngapain.”
Mentari shows what she brought, “I made a soes cake, you try it, yes.” Mentari gave one to Angga.
“Enak, but your expression is like that. Lie, yes.” Mentari said, he pursed his lips sadly.
Angga smiled forcefully, “No, I did not lie. The cake is delicious.”
“But, how is that expression?”
“Yes, how should I express?”
“Smiles? Glad to do it because the food is good.”
Angga showed his smile.
“Fake.”
“No, Tar... The cake is really good, I did not lie.”
“No smile but,”
“Smiles.”
Mentari let out a rough sigh, she kept her food on the table and looked at Angga back. In the hand of Angga, he stared fixed the eyes of the man.
“I know you're sad again now and I know what causes it.”
Angga was only able to pull the flat corners of his lips.
“Ga, but you should believe. If Bella can be cured, there is progress, you can also.” said Mentari, he tried to reassure the confidence of the man.
“But, my feet are totally unfeelable, Tar. Whereas, Bella?”
“Ga—”
“If I'm paralyzed forever, how about?”
Mentari frowned, she did not like the question. “Kok you said that anyway?”
“Yes, I just thought the odds were bad. And, if that happens, mending you..” Angga paused his words, he was not ready to actually make this painful request.
“Mending me what?”
Angga staring at the eyeballs Mentari, “Mending you look for other men only. A normal guy. I'm sure he'll be very happy with you. Than you tormented should live the same paralyzed man as I.”
Angga thought, Mentari will be angry or act something because of his words. However, the woman asked an unexpected question.
“So, if I'm in your position. You're gonna sell that?”
Angga's eyebrows swooped sharply, “Now.”
“Yaudah, why are you forcing me to do it?”
“I just don't want you to finish your time so just wait for me that the possibility to heal is small. I don't want your life to be tormented because I have to have a paralyzed partner like me.”
Mentari stood up which made Angga think that the woman was upset and angry.
“Udah talk?” mentari asked, he raised next to his eyebrows while Angga frowned confusedly.Mentari walked to the back of Angga's wheelchair, turning it. “Mending us a walk to the park, so you can refresh your brain that is always over thinking it.” said Mentari while pushing Angga wheelchair.
“Tar..”
“Do not want to hear anything if what you are talking about is nonsense.”
And, in the end they chose the park as a place to refresh the mind that had scattered just because of one bad prejudice in the mind that continues to cross.
