90 Days Pursuing My Husband's Love

Like a Mad Man (Chapter 8)

My car drove slowly through the streets of the city. I drive aimlessly. Don't know where to go. But one thing is for sure, I have to get the guy who wants to be my girlfriend for three months.

Until finally I decided to go to the park where there would certainly be a lot of people who passed by. Maybe I'll find someone who wants to be my girlfriend.

Today I deliberately look beautiful wearing a long golden dress. I smeared my face with thin makeup but it looked very elegant. I hope there will be men interested and willing to accept my offer. With this 11 billion dollar ATM, I started walking and approached each man I met.

My hair seems to have broken up. I was without any shame asking them if they would be dating me. Surely the one who saw me thought I was crazy. Because in reality I was crazy. Crazy will get affection from someone in my life who only lives 3 months.

Although many refused. But I don't want to give up. I don't care what people say to me. I'll keep looking until I get a man who wants to be my lover, in just 3 months.

I've questioned some of the men I met, but they still refused, even saying I was crazy.

"Mas, introduce my name Velicia. I'm going straight to the point, can't you be my girlfriend? Just three months. I'll give you 11 billion dollars in return if you want to be my girlfriend." I said to a bespectacled man sitting on a park bench reading a book.

To be honest, this guy is not on my criteria at all. But, it's okay. All I need is attention and affection. No matter what it looks like.

The man looked at me from the top of my head to the end of my feet. He looked at me with a strange look.

"This boy is actually pretty. But how can I be stressed, right? It's so sorry." He said, standing up to leave me.

"I'm not stressed or crazy. I'm serious, Mas." I tried to persuade her to agree to be my girlfriend.

"Sorry Mom, I'm still sane." The man left.

I was so desperate that I pulled his hand. I thought this man would help me, because from the look in his eyes he was a good man.

"Mas I'll give you 11 billion Mas. Are you not interested?" I tried to go back to persuade him.

"Once again I say, no. Better find another man. I'm not that kind of guy." Again he refused me and just left.

I sat on the park bench sobbing. Where else should I go? Am I really not able to get a man who can give me attention within 90 days? What good is this money I have?

With staggering steps, I walked through the park and accidentally met Arnold who was walking with his little sister.

"What are you doing here?" Ask Arnold to me.

I didn't answer the question, I chose to be quiet and not push it. I'd better avoid it.

"I feel sorry for you. You really are like a woman who lacks men." Arnold spoke again but this time he insinuated me.

"Sir Arnold why the hell, same wife herself who said that." Protests Angelica, Arnold's younger sister. "Oh yeah Velicia's not coming with us to see the concert." Rose Angelica to me.

"No need to bring him. He better just go home." said Arnold. "Where's your car? You go home." Arnold seemed to be trying to drive me away.

"I didn't bring a car." I was lying, hoping Arnold would take me home.

Dismissed my hopes of getting ushered home by Arnold.

"How about Arnold's brother and Velicia take the bus." Said Angelica who made me excited.

I wanted to jump in and hug Angelica because she gave me an idea that I could be alone with Arnold. But would Arnold agree?

I looked at Arnold's face hoping he would say yes. But, as always. His face always had a cold expression.

"That's it, you two just go home. I can watch my own music concert. There I will also meet my friends. Go away...." Angelica encouraged me and Arnold to leave immediately.

Arnold and I got on the bus together. However, we did not get a seat, so we were forced to stand while holding on to an iron rod that was intended for the handle for the standing bus passengers.

It felt so happy to be able to stand so close to Arnold without any distance separating. I feel like I want time to stop right now, so that Arnold and I are always the two without anyone else interrupting.

Suddenly the bus braked suddenly, making me fall into Arnold's body. It was so warm to touch Arnold's chest. The smell of his body made me crumple. Unknowingly, I hugged her softly.

Like this I'm so happy, how about Arnold accept the deal I made. Especially if he has the same feelings as me.

Ah, I'm a plan. I had intended to forget Arnold and find another man to be my lover.

I realize one thing, even though we're divorced, I'll still love Arnold.

Even if I maintain our marriage relationship longer, or until I die later, everything will remain the same. Arnold just loves Viona. And all of that is uncontested.

"How's your relationship with Viona lately?" I tried to wake myself up by accepting the truth and asking Arnold about his relationship with Viona.

"We're getting married soon, the wedding day is set for February 2nd."

The deg!

Arnold had already decided on her marriage to Viona even before we were officially divorced. Really, my heart hurts so much to hear the truth Arnold said.

"I owe Viona a wedding." Arnold continued his words.

How ironic. But, at least I won't be hurt to see their marriage. Because on February 2nd, I am no longer in this world.

What else I can do, there's no way I'm gonna try to derail their marriage. Now all I can do is let Arnold get his own happiness.

“Congratulations yes.” I said to Arnold with raging feelings.

Arnold seemed to wrinkle his forehead and asked me,

"Why are you looking for people to come and fro to date you?"
