BEAUTIFUL REUNION IN TWO

25. Always thinking of you

Bimasena is attending a meeting at PT. Pertamina Hulu Indonesia, a subsidiary of PT. Pertamina (Persero) is engaged in the upstream oil and gas field.

The meeting discussed the issue of oil spill in Karawang beach area. The Pertamina Hulu Energi Offshore North West Java (PHE ONWJ) team will work with the FreddCo Energi Team, in synergy with various parties to clean up the remaining oil deposits.

"Routinely we will deploy our team to flyover or aerial monitoring to map the location of the remaining spill" Bimasena said at the meeting.

"We will also deploy several ships to help Pertamina clean up from the sea to the land side" Bimasena continued.

During the meeting, Bimasena was less able to concentrate on the meeting material. He kept thinking about Nadia who was sick. But he had been constrained to contact Nadia, because Tristan had returned from Japan.

Finally Bimasena after the meeting was over, he contacted Tristan, using the excuse of playing chess to extract information on Nadia's condition.

Bimasena: Are you in Indonesia, man?

Tristan: I'm Mr. Bro. Earlier morning.

Bimasena: Chess yuk.

Tristan: May. Entar night. But in your apartment. Not at home. Now for a while I live in Ortu's house.

Bimasena: Why?

Tristan: Nadia has chickenpox. Isolated at home.

Nadia got chicken pox? Maybe that's why he had a fever yesterday. But Tristan isolating Nadia means?

Bimasena: You mean to leave Nadia at home?

Tristan: Yes, anticipate the possibility of contracting Bro.

Bimasena is upset that Tristan left Nadia alone. What if Nadia's condition worsens and she's alone? To him what Tristan was doing was very unreasonable.

Bimasena: If Nadia was the sister of the cave, the cave has been bent lo head on the wall bro.

Fortunately, Tristan was laughing. Because the words just came out of his lips, because his heart was angry at Tristan's attitude to Nadia.

Tristan: Our mindsets are different Bro. I have to prevent the virus from spreading more widely. Anyway I've sent the smallpox medicine from the doctor to Nadia at home anyway. Your heart is sensitive, like a girl.

Tristan is back.

Bimasena grumbled in annoyance after ending her phone call with Tristan. He contacted Tristan to find a way, a reason to come to their home. To ensure the condition of Nadia.

But it turns out Nadia is more worried about the presence of Tristan, because Tristan chose to leave Nadia just for fear of contracting.

Somehow he felt allergic to a man who was unable to end the dignity and dignity of a wife. Maybe because of the experience of seeing his mother's suffering first. Therefore, until now, he has not searched for where his biological father is.

*******

Nadia has received a shipment of chickenpox drugs from Tristan through a courier. But even more make his heart inflamed.

What does the phrase together mean in joy and sorrow?

Is it different from being healthy and sick?

When Tristan was sick he left her alone. He was helpless and needed help.

What kind of husband?

Then what made him hold on to Tristan while his heart had been hurt so often?

The answer is because he does not have any capital if he is separated from Tristan at this time.

The house that was made into a salon belonged to Tristan's parents. The capital of opening a salon business was obtained from Tristan's parents. The house they occupied also belonged to Tristan.

If they parted, Tristan would withdraw all of his possessions, and what could he do?

Back to the modeling world? There's no way he can compete anymore. There are many younger and more beautiful models. When he was in his twenties he failed to compete, especially now, he was thirty years old.

So what about the installment in the bank every month? His brother's debt installment and his car installment?

What about the educational costs of the children? Should he let his parents drop out of school?

Hope to Bimasena?

He still has his pride. It is better to live underrated by Tristan than to drop self-esteem in the eyes of Bimasena.

She doesn't trust men anymore. Tristan used to be a good man when he approached her. Who would have thought that over time Tristan turned into an iceberg?

Bimasena could be like that too. Or maybe, it could be that Bimasena is just playing heart. People like Bimasena are surrounded by beautiful women. There was nothing to be proud of him for a man of Bimasena's class. When the man is bored, he can turn to another woman.

So that He will not take a courageous decision if he is not able to stand on his own feet.

He also still upholds the promise that has been engraved when menilah duku. Comforting themselves that what is happening right now is a test of marriage that they must go through. About Tristan's attitude and about his heart turning to Bimasena, he considered a household tempest to be resolved.

Why is Tristan back? His parents must have asked him to come back.

The pain in his heart made him walk reluctantly to open the door for Tristan. It is better for the man to live with his parents, than to be with him but to always hurt.

"Why come back?" nadia asked as she opened the door. But it turns out he was surprised when he said the question. Because the one standing in front of him wasn't Tristan. But ...

Bimasene.

"Bim!" the cry of not believing.

How'this? His face was very embarrassing, overgrown with watery nodules. Skin too. Bimasena will certainly be disgusted to see it and will be afraid of contracting it when he finds out he has chickenpox.

Nadia took a few steps back.

"Prepare Nadia, I'll take you to the doctor" Bimasena smiled at her.

"No need for Bim. I already have medicine. You better go home. I've had chickenpox, don't let you get it," Nadia refused, further distancing herself from Bimasena.

"I knew Nadia you had chickenpox, so I came here. I'll take you to the best doctor so that your chickenpox will heal quickly."

"Please name and address the doctor only Bim. Let me go alone. Take a taxi online. Don't come near Bim, you'll catch it. You better just go home."

"No Nadia, I'm not gonna get it. Nor is it afraid of getting infected. Pack up. I'm waiting outside."

With teary eyes Nadia looked at Bimasena's back who turned around, climbed on top of the car and waited for her there. Why is it that man is paying attention right now? Not Tristan her husband?

He finally realized, it was not only Bimasena who destroyed his fortress. But because of Tristan's own involvement.

"I'm riding in my own car Bim, if I ride in your car the virus can spread in the air, stay in the car seat, can infect anyone later who rides your car," nadia said as she finished locking the door. Of course he will not forget the words of Tristan, how the virus is easily transmitted.

Bimasena. "You're sick Nadia, where can bring your own car," said Bimasena instead directed Nadia to climb into the car Audy R8.

"I sit in the back seat, we have to keep our distance. Adult chickenpox virus is very contagious. Don't get transmitted to you Bim," Nadia said with a worried face.

But Bimasena ignored his words. Keep asking him to sit next to her.

*******

Ever since leaving her home, the woman had never made a sound, only throwing a glance at the side window. But from the movement of his shoulders, he seemed to be crying.

"He's dead!" Bimasena called his name.

Nadia was silent, not saying. Only his will was heard.

"He's dead!" Bimasena repeated it again.

Nadia still did not reply, instead sitting incongruously towards the side window to her back.

"Hey, why are you crying?" Bimasena tried to grab her shoulder, but stopped touching her. Not polite, right? Nadia wife person.

Nadia is getting sobbing.

"Is anyone sick?"

Nadia shakes.

"Or because ..." Bimasena rather hesitantly mentioned it, "Tristan?"

"I should be with Tristan Bim now, not you." Finally, Nadia's voice was heard despite being soft and restrained.

Bimasena sighed, trying to find the right sentence to relieve Nadia's heartache to Tristan.

"Look at the positive side of Nadia. Tristan avoided getting him infected. Because if he does get it, the people in his office might get it too. If the people in his office get infected, they'll bring it to his family. So Tristan is a good person, think of the health of Nadia's crowd."

Why did he defend Tristan? Doesn't he consider Tristan his rival?

No, he wouldn't wear it that way. Using Tristan's weakness, he stabbed her in the back.

"Then why don't you think of yourself, Bim? Why don't you think about the people in your office? Why don't you think about the crowd?" Nadia instead uses her defense sentence for Tristan to attack her. That means his choice is not right.

********

"Then why don't you think of yourself, Bim? Why don't you think about the people in your office? Why don't you think about the crowd?" He attacked Bimasena who was defending Tristan while looking at the face of a man who was seriously staring at the highway while driving.

The man even laughed. Then take a long breath.

"Ah Nadia, in my brain and heart now there is only you. Without me, I keep thinking about you. Now you control my mind. There was no more room left for anyone else let alone the crowd."

"You know what it's like to fall in love with someone's wife? You know what it's like to miss someone's wife? Worse than chicken pox. More excruciating than chicken pox. So don't be sad Nadia. Because what I'm going through is worse and more excruciating."
