Convince Yourself



..."Linda wants to talk to Romi. Does Romi have time?"...


..."Of course Deck, when? Brother has no work and no busyness. So, anytime you're ready."...


..."Brother can come this afternoon?"...


..."Lt could. Brother could definitely Deck. Still waiting for noon, huh? not just now?"...


Linda smiled faintly, hearing question after question, which was asked by Romi over a phone call.


Currently, Linda is contacting her future husband. To talk seriously.


Linda and Romi, indeed, have officially tied back the relationship between the two of them, with a proposal. There is no official game show yet.


Because last night, when his Uncle Romi came to Linda's house, Romi asked himself, to be a representative of his family to propose to Linda.


Fortunately, his Uncle Romi has not had time to know, if the decision taken by Linda last night, it was driven by his own arrival.


And Romi doesn't know that either. Because Linda herself hasn't told me.


..."It's up to Brother. Importantly, Brother was not interrupted by his show."...


..."Oh no Deck. Brother will be coming home soon huh!"...


..."Yes Brother. Linda wait a minute!"...


..."Ready Honey. Hehe..."...


Click!


Linda smiled again, hearing the affectionate call spoken by Romi.


He became ashamed of himself, when he remembered the events in his past. When she was romi's lover.


It was as if he were a natural stone. And he could still feel enough of his heart beating fast.


"Can I still be in love?" linda asked herself, holding her left breast.


Feeling the happiness of his heartbeat beating fast, when he remembered with Romi.


But not long after, Linda immediately shook her head. When he remembered about his uncle Romi, who had not been able to disappear from his memory until now.


Memories of events in his childhood, even though it has been decades.


"Can I, overcome all the pain in the head. If I meet the uncle?" Linda asked herself again, about the trauma she had suffered so far.


He never thought that, the person who had once hurt him as a child, was the closest person to Romi himself.


Although actually Linda never knew for sure with the face of the person, but she remembered the voice of the man.


His memory of the male voice that night, was very strong in his memory.


And he can shut down that, his memory is not wrong. Especially if you remember the behavior and habits of his uncle Romi. He currently has two wives.


What a clear example of the character of men being greedy. And never satisfied with what you have.


Linda wants to talk about her fear to Romi, so Romi can take a stance in the future, after they are officially married.


But Linda was also hesitant, if only Romi did not believe the story, so would blame Linda herself.


"What should I do if Romi doesn't believe my story?" Now, Linda actually became frightened herself, so her body trembled.


He didn't want to, if Romi was going to leave. After knowing the true story in his past.


"Shall I keep quiet and not tell you about his uncle?" linda asked again, whose sword game was confused.


Linda shakes her head a few times because she wants to start a new life. By not feeling fear, over the events in his childhood.


That's how Linda's determination is at the moment. To be able to step up and look into his future. Without having to imagine the unpleasant events in his past.


Actually, Linda already has the intention to go to the spikiater. So that he could be free from his fear all this time.


He felt very disturbed, with his trauma.


Trauma is the emotional response of the body, to a terrible event such as an accident, rape or natural disaster. It can also occur in response to events that are physically or emotionally harmful. Trauma can occur after an event, or over a long period of time.


*****


Right now, Romi is listening seriously, about what Linda is telling him.


Romi's hands clenched tightly, restraining the emotions that suddenly appeared after knowing the true story. About the fear and dizziness that Linda experienced last night, and also Della's application time first.


"Why are you quiet, Dek? You should be able to tell this to anyone you think can keep a secret."


Romi regretted Linda's attitude, which had been silent, and did not want to tell others about her situation.


He also condemned the actions of his own uncle, who had traumatized Linda. Or it could be, there are other victims, the same as Linda also in the past.


"But Brother. Linda won't, if Big Brother goes to rebuke her uncle. Linda was afraid, if her uncle's sister would be more reckless later."


Romi nodded in agreement with the proposal put forward by linda.


Now, she also tells about her uncle's intentions, who wants to make Linda his third wife.


"Linda already knew her uncle's intentions Romi. That was why, Linda directly decided to accept Brother. Sorry, sister, if what Linda decided was impressed in a hurry. If Big Brother doesn't accept it, Linda's okay too. If only you had no intention of continuing our relationship."


"What do you mean Deck?" ask Romi quickly.


She had no idea what Linda was thinking right now. So that I can talk like that.


"Sorry Brother. Linda just doesn't want to, if Big Brother feels that Linda is just taking advantage of Sister's presence."


But it turns out Romi smiled at Linda's confession.


"Silver sister Dek, finally you can express honestly, what you feel. That means, you don't want any misunderstandings or lies ahead."


Linda lowered her head, as she felt embarrassed, had taken advantage of Romi's presence. To avoid his Uncle Romi as well. Who had the intention to find a way, so that he could make Linda his wife.


"Then, what will you do? if you know now, brother already knows. At the core of the problems we'll face, if we get married later."


Romi was silent for a moment, hearing the question given by Linda.


"You'll take me to the big city with Erli as well."


Hearing the answer given by Romi, Linda looked at her future husband's face intensely.


He never thought, if Romi had the intention to take him to the big city.


Linda herself did not actually have a problem, where they would live after getting married later.


He just wanted to never see his uncle again. Once they are officially married, Linda will automatically become part of her uncle's family.


But Romi tries to convince Linda not to think about her uncle. He's gonna keep Linda from that uncle.


"Believe with Brother Dek. Brother will never allow uncle to approach you. I also don't want to if uncle still has malicious intentions towards you."


Linda pulled the corner of her lips, hearing the words and explanations given by Romi. She wanted to believe with all her heart what her future husband had said.


"Ma... Mama!"


From the porch of the house, Erli was clamoring. Adahil. Which is currently in the living room.


He came home from school cheerfully, typical of school children who did not have the burden of strange thoughts.
