AT THE CROSSROADS OF DILEMMA

Section 16. The heart that is hurt

Yumna hugged Ken tightly when she jumped at him, Yumna looked shocked as if she had a heartbeat. A few seconds later, Yumna immediately let go of her hand and slumped down.

“Are you crazy?” yep, Ken's upset.

Yumna did not say much, again walking back towards Melisa like a model who wags her hair. Melisa and Brian are still gawking at what Yumna did to Ken. In front of Melisa, Yumna slightly jumped the sign he managed to do the challenge he gave then took the bag he threw.

Melisa called out to him, Yumna clenched her body. Melisa tells her gel bra to fall. Yumna glared in shock at the sight of her bra falling on right at Ken's feet and holding her bare chest without a bra.

He recalled that when he jumped his brain and immediately floated, Melisa and Brian held back laughter. Yumna walked while covering her embarrassed face until in front of Ken immediately rushed to pick it up and ran away.

Ken looks confused, Yumna immediately leaned against the wall away from his house while holding a gel bra that loosely swearing at him if very embarrassing. 

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Ken fell asleep in his room, his eyes closed but his lips were smiling. Finally he could no longer hold back his laughter and immediately laughed out loud considering the previous events.

Yumna lying on her bed with her eyes closed could hear Ken's laughter, looking annoyed to directly cover her head with a blanket. Ken was still laughing until he woke up and hit a pillow.

"Stop laughing!” yumna yelled annoyedly getting out of her bed, Ken Masi continued to laugh nonstop.

“But This is the first time I heard you laugh.” Yumna also said in surprise. Ken laughed until his tears came out. 

Yumna hurriedly went to the office, while eating peanut porridge ran to go to the office. Ken drives his car back and then stops right beside Yumna, taking her in because he will take her to the train station. Yumna did not refuse, got into the car and put on her guard belt.

“Tract me dinner, 'cause I made you laugh I want an expensive treat, 'cause I made you laugh a lot. Show with a falling gel bra. That rarely happens. On top of that, I am so ashamed.” Yumna said as she chewed on her green beans that she brought from home. Ken laughed again when he remembered last night.

"Stop laughing. You once told me that you are not the type of person who laughs easily.” said Yumna, Ken laughed again.

“Stop thinking about it.” firmly Yumna, Ken tried to stop but couldn't because he came back laughing. Both of them laughed with the car glass open with very bright spring air and cherry blossoms. 

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

In office.

Yumna looked at the report file with a graph, feeling that there was a huge sales gap between their company and the other companies in the business. Glassy-eyed men make the company very careful to form this new team.

“They are worried whether we should just try to keep second place. But Director Melisa is in big trouble.” explained the man with glasses, Yumna thought Melisa was like that nature.

“Do you not think it will be too difficult for us to strive to be number one?” said the female officer.

“Have you ever had moments like this? You think, Maybe it's time to give up. Time to give up. Then you can support from others, who encourage you.” Yumna said as she stared at the window.

Flash Back's

Yumna recalled that while running the marathon looked exhausted, her mind floated when calling Ken who revealed that he was happy because his ex-girlfriend still remembered his name.

“This is why people do not do good to each other. How you? You think I'm a slap? You're the only one who's gonna call me and make it all runnin' again. Do you know that?” said Ken.

“I miss you.” said Yumna. Ken immediately cursed Yumna was crazy and shouted hysterically while throwing his phone.

“Maybe I shouldn't have contacted you back then. You think, maybe ending it like this is the thing to do."

Yumna who looks discouraged, heard the cry of someone from inside the car, “Yumna! Fighting!”

“At the most unexpected moment, you gain strength from the support of others. It feels like the whole planet is cheering me on so I don't give up.” At that time Yumna was again excited to continue running the marathon. 

End.

Yumna tries to call Ken from his phone but turns out his phone is off, after which he calls her office. Ken had just returned to his office and had his cell phone tainted, messages coming in from the next door neighbor, Yumna.

“Delicious and expensive food. Why don't you reply to my WhatsApp? Buy me dinner. I want greasy food. A lot of meat." Ken smiled and read it and saw the note on his monitor.

"At 7pm eat steak at a restaurant. From Yumna. I'll wait for you."

Yumna just returned to her desk reading a message from Ken with a smile, “Jam 7 is too fast, better Jam 7 :30 only.”

“Where to be the place?” yumna reply.

“Didn't you want to meet at the Steak restaurant ?” reply Ken, Yumna who read it can smile because the place is very expensive.

Yumna immediately ran when she just got out of the elevator, a happy smile on her face. Ken also just got out of his office and got in the car to go to a steakhouse.

While beautiful Yumna seemed to wait for someone to restlessly see the clock on her phone was already at 7 o'clock past 20 minutes. Yumna walked into the restaurant, the beautiful Yumna smiled at her office friend and came over. Yumna doesn't look so comfortable there should be one restaurant with the beautiful Yumna.

“I think we're connected specifically, do you want to meet someone here?” said the beautiful Yumna, Yumna justifies if he is waiting for someone.

“Who? What is it with Girlfriend?” ask the beautiful Yumna. Yumna claimed to be just an ordinary guy friend.

“Did you two start dating?” seduced by the beautiful Yumna, Yumna could only respond

“Yes so.”

“It's great to hear it. You know courtship is a wonderful time. I want to know what kind of person he is and I am sure he is a very good person because you are also a good person.” said the beautiful Yumna look excessive.

Yumna asks back who her former high school friend will meet, the beautiful Yumna says A man too but doesn't seem to come so feel like he's been dumped, according to him, even though the man did not come, he will try to come to his house because he knows where the man lives. Yumna commented that her theme was still very confident.

The beautiful Yumna seemed not to realize that she was very confident, but felt happy because there were people who said that she was confident, then hugged Yumna while saying thanks to Yumna. The two then parted ways and Yumna chose to sit on the row of back benches, the beautiful Yumna turned her head while saying good-bye. 

Ken's car goes into the parking lot, the beautiful Yumna seems to be in disbelief seeing Ken come to the restaurant. Ken entered the search - find Yumna, when Yumna immediately raised her hand to tell her where to sit. Ken also walked closer to Yumna who was already standing, suddenly a voice called him, “Kakak.”

At that time Ken also remembered the name on his cellphone, the next door neighbor woman and the note attached was Yumna then only realized the reality of a different person. The beautiful Yumna looked at Ken with glassy eyes. Ken also invited Yumna to go elsewhere, because he knew that his next door neighbor was not the type of person who ate in a place like this. The beautiful Yumna called Ken with the name of brother without being able to get in the way. 

Finally, the beautiful Yumna approached a high school friend in disbelief that the one she was dating was Ken. Yumna seems silent and looks confused, the beautiful Yumna is not familiar with the strange situation as it is now.

“I left him a message and asked him to meet here. He must have thought it was from you so he was confused because of our names. It seems like this keeps happening well?” comments by beautiful Yumna.

“Then How did you two know each other?” ask Yumna.

The beautiful Yumna had not had time to answer him, because Ken went back into the restaurant and immediately pulled Yumna's hand to leave. The beautiful Yumna was in shock because Ken pulled Yumna's hand instead of her. 

Ken put Yumna in the car. The beautiful Yumna chased after him and apologized for admitting all her mistakes. Ken hasn't been in the car and stopped to listen.

"You can curse me. I cannot blame you even if you hit me. I beg Wait.” said the beautiful Yumna while pulling Ken's hand, but Ken chose to leave but then turned back around. Yumna could only see from inside the car.

“You think I'll come see you as soon as you ask me? Don't fantasize. I came to see the woman, not you.” cried Ken.

“Call it. Why the restaurant he chose was different. You eat the steak alone, with grace.” Ken quipped that made Yumna bulged in shock and then walked back into his car.

“I miss you really, I miss you so much. Every day, every time, every moment that is in my heart and brain is only you.” said the beautiful Yumna.

Ken directly hit the car glass very hard, Yumna and the beautiful Yumna screamed while covering their faces in fear. There are blood spots left on the car glass cracks, Ken entered his car and Yumna looks scared immediately put on her seatbelt. The beautiful Yumna could only quietly see Ken's attitude was really angry at her. 

In the car there was a tense atmosphere, Yumna glanced at Ken's injured hand from hitting the window and holding the car's steering wheel very tight. When stopped at the red light, the two were still silent without saying much.

Yumna recalled Ken's earlier words while recounting the failure of marriage

“How can it not be a big deal? It felt like the world had given me the death penalty. I feel like I've been exiled from the universe. It was like saying good things and asking for mercy from a world that had alienated me. How is that not a big deal? I got dumped on my wedding day.”

Ken's mind again remembered with the togetherness of the beautiful Yumna on the edge of the river, listening to the sound together, Yumna gave a kiss on her cheek. Then take a photo of his face when he lies together and kisses very friendly.

Yumna just looked at Ken who continued to drink alcohol nonstop, until in the third bottle her mouth began to talk that the beautiful Yumna was the person. Ken who was about to drink suddenly stopped and his hands seemed to tremble. Yumna drank a beer and immediately laughed out loud - bahak while holding her stomach.

“This is really very annoying.” said Yumna then both the same - the same spent drinks in a glass

“From the beginning I thought it was strange, seeing from the way you looked at me.” Yumna said remembering the moment they collided and made her nose nosebleed.

“I finally understand now. The woman who had the same name as the woman we loved to death. It must be uncomfortable for you. But why do you stay calm whenever I tell you about the beautiful Yumna? Why are you just listening to me? Why didn't you tell me that the woman who disappeared on your wedding day was beautiful Yumna?” yumna was angry.

“Why should I tell you?” reply Ken.

“Why do you make me look like a fool? I've been babbling myself like an idiot. Is that funny to you? Every time I tell you about the three painful years I went through when I was in high school because compared to the beautiful Yumna, are you satisfied?” yumna said, Ken just kept silent without being able to say.

“You must be thinking, it is true that the woman I love is an extraordinary woman. Did you enjoy it?” yumna said, Ken seems annoyed that he thinks it makes no sense.

“So why didn't you tell me?” yumna shouted, Ken grew angry and did not want to look at Yumna's face.

“What have you done at that restaurant?" yumna said, Ken asked what he was doing in an angry tone.

“You held my hand. Am I some kind of property for your love life? It's my wrist! What is my hand this property to make the ***** that angry?” yumna shouted with glazed eyes holding back anger, then after that walked closer to Yumna.

“Do you want me to tell him we love each other? Do you want me to drive him crazy and make him so desperate?” yumna said in a mocking tone and the distance of her face was very close.

“Sorry that I've grabbed your heart and your feelings. I'm really sorry!” ken shouted and walked away.

“Don't try - try you using me like that again! You must apologize! Because it's so childish - kanakan!” yumna shouted and let Ken go from her. 

*************

Yumna sat in the room without turning on the lights, in front of her was a laughing doll but still her face was sad without being able to laugh in the slightest. Even until the doll fell rolling around, Yumna did not laugh.

In Ken's room is still empty, the shoes in front of Yumna's room door are still lined up neatly. Yumna saw that it was already three in the morning, finally he called Ken like he left a message.

“Why don't you go home? Are you here to show your anger? Why are you like this? Go home.” pinta Yumna.

Moments later, Yumma exits the house as if waiting for Ken to come home, Ken's car is driven by an office driver. Yumna also saw Ken sitting behind as if unconscious after being drunk.

“Log into your house and sleep there.” said Yumna knocked on the car window but Ken appeared unconscious.

When Yumna opens the door, Ken's leaning body falls down and Yumna can hold him back from falling while leaning back on his car seat. He ran into his room and pushed the shelf to get into Ken's room.

Arriving on the bed and laying down Ken's body, Yumna tried to open the jacket. In Ken's eyes it was like seeing the shadows of Yumna helping him, even removing his shoes. Yumna made a hot water compress and put it on Ken's back while asleep.

“You will get cold. Stay warm even though you are sleeping.” said Yumna staring at Ken who was lying down,

Finally Yumna lying next to Ken because of fatigue, Ken tilted his body with his legs hugging Yumna's legs, his eyes like seeing the shadow of Yumna. Then Yumna managed to kick Ken's leg away, then sat down and looked at Ken's injured hand. 

Morning

Yumna crouched down in front of the sleeping Ken, Ken opened his eyes and could see Yumna right in front of his face. Yumna smiles seeing Ken finally wake up and leaves Ken's room.

Ken cleaned his body in the bathroom, when wearing a spreader for his face realized that the wound had been covered by plaster, then looked towards Yumna's room, could guess the next door neighbor must have done it.

Yumna in her room was busy cooking touge soup with eggs and chives and giving chili slices on top. After finishing with the tray, Ken invites him to breakfast together, while commenting that Ken usually does not drink because he has low blood. Ken only looked at Yumna who was cleaning the table while babbling.

“When you are dizzy from drunkenness, then you have to vomit, sleep in a warm place, eat hot, and reminisce. After that you will feel better. This is the advice of a woman who during her life drank alcohol.” said Yumna then invited Ken to eat quickly, both of them sat down to eat soup touge together.
