Allow Me to Be Happy

Chapter 2

Dewi and Briggita walk side by side to Julian's house. Julian was Briggita's lover for two years. Currently they have to undergo a Long Distance Relationship because Julian works in one of the private offices located in the city of Zurich.

The goddess enjoyed the surrounding scenery. Iseltweld is a dream place that he has visited so far. Along the way to Julian's house, Dewi's eyes are spoiled not only from the Alps, but also the farmland of the citizens. At the end also seen a castle that became a famous icon in Iseltwald that must be visited.

Actually the Goddess wanted to come to this place in a state of calm and peaceful heart, but fate said another. He even visited here in a state of a wounded heart. And he hopes that after this, he will return to his former self.

After a ten-minute walk, they arrived at Julian's house. Julian lives with his mother and grandmother.

“Halo guten morgen dear (good morning),” greet Briggita when seeing Julian out of his house.

“Guten morgen ach (good morning too) babe.” Julian kissed her lover's lips.

“Oh I didn't see him before.”

“She's a Goddess, Lian. What I often tell you is,” Briggita said.

“Hi I'm Julian. Briggita used to tell me about you. Said he made a new friend here who is from Indonesia.”

“Hi also Julian, I'm Goddess. I'm sure Briggita must have told you that I wasn't nice to you, right.”

“Yes I told him about you who never wanted me to take the road and always looked pensive or read a book in your home. I was afraid at any time you even jumped into the lake,” joked Briggita.

Dewipun. “Does my face look like a very desperate person?”

“Indeed. On your face is illustrated if you just lost a lover.”

The goddess smiled at Briggita.

“Huust has been daritadi you two just fuss,” rebuked Julian. “Baby invite Goddess in. There's my mom inside.”

Inside the house looks a middle-aged woman who still looks beautiful is arranging her flowers. This house also looks warm and pleasant when entered.

“Hi aunty's. I came to bring breakfast for aunty, Julian and grandma. Oh yeah grandma where aunty?”

“Hi is also dear. Grandma's in her room. Grandma is not well,” replied aunty Maria.

“I'll see grandma in her room.”

After Briggita died, Maria saw a hijab woman standing staring at Briggita's departure.

“Are you not the Indonesian who rented Alex's house?” ask aunty Maria when she sees the Goddess.

“Halo aunty's. My name is Goddess. It is true that I rented the house uncle Alex,” said Dewi.

“Iya aunty I have often asked her but she does not want to. Whether there is a storm what he wants me to take today,” cried Briggita from the direction of the dining table. The woman came straight out of the grandmother's room after seeing the sleeping grandmother in her bed and went straight to the dining table to arrange the food she brought as their breakfast

“Let's have breakfast first. Come Goddess you come too,” invite aunty Maria.

“I had breakfast at home before Bri picked me up,” said Dewi.

“Colah Dewi eat again. Won't make you fat,” Briggita.

There was doubt on the Goddess' face and it was seen by Julian.

“I have packaged orange juice and bread from my friend who is from Turkey. I know you can't eat just like that. My friend is also a Muslim just like you,” said Julian who came from the direction of his room.

“Danke schon (thank you very much) Julian.”

“Bitte (same-same).”

The breakfast was filled with laughter from them all. The goddess occasionally responded to their chatter. He now realizes he must quickly recover and prepare himself to return to his life in the country. Many people are waiting for his return. Mami Lisa and Papi Arya, her friends Candra, Tania, and Leo, her students, and of course her patients.

That person, does he also want his return? Is that guy still thinking about it? Hmm I don't know. The goddess did not think about it anymore.

While elsewhere, thousands of kilometers from Iseltweld precisely in the capital Jakarta is currently at midnight. A man is seen lying next to his two children. Although the clock shows the number two in the morning, his eyes still can not sleep. This series of annual events crossed his view.

Regret for the sake of regret felt it continues. Today is exactly two months away from the woman who has given her two handsome and beautiful children. The woman he loved so much. The woman who gives color to her life. The woman who had been faithfully with him for six years.

Regretting for never paying attention to his wife's health, the woman had to leave because of her illness. Regretting for her stupidity too she had to lose three people she cared about in the time that was close by. I don't know what sin he ever committed so God gave him a very severe trial for him to bear.

Perhaps if there were no sons and daughters, he would choose to go with his wife. Too embarrassed for him to face this world again. This man also has no face to meet with om and tantenya which they as a substitute for his parents since his father and mother died.

“Rena, why did you have to leave so soon? Is it so sickening to live with me that you choose to leave me? Don't you want to see our sons and daughters grow up and become successful?” inner Reza.

“Ren, is he healthy? Has he forgiven me, Ren? I beg Ren to take care of her from there, Ren. I really wanted to apologize to her, Ren. I hope he will forgive me.

My dear Renu, why can you love a stupid man like me, Ren? A stupid man who can't take care of the people he cares about? Please ask God, Ren what my sins are to the extent that I have to lose you.

Rena I missed you. Come in my dreams tonight, Ren. I want to hug you even if it's just in a dream.” Reza began to fall asleep with teardrops that soaked both cheeks.
