Let's Make Friends

Happy reading & ''Double

Renata's cold attitude continued, even when Fabian underwent his first therapy Renata still silenced him. Not wanting to force Fabian just silently accept.

This afternoon Fabian did a series of therapies to make it back to normal walking. Of course Renata accompanies Andi, a nurse appointed by his mother to help Fabian.

Renata was just busy with flat objects in his hand as if he did not care what Fabian did.

From a distance Fabian's eyes were only fixed on his cold wife.

"Where, all right?" Ask someone who is Jamie's doctor to Fabian.

I swear by whatever doctor Jamie is the one who Fabian doesn't want to meet the most even though he owes him a lot of money.

"As you can see" said Fabian.

"Don't strain, just relax. Let things go better" Jamie's doctor advised Fabian.

It's not that Fabian is feeling tense but that he doesn't like the presence of Jamie's doctor to his therapy room.

"Who are you taking?" Ask Jamie's doctor, and Fabian certainly knows what's behind the question. Makes Fabian even more unhappy.

Jamie's doctor circulated his eyes looking for Renata and then smiled as he looked at her. Fabian clenched his hands as he held back his anger.

"Sister, why is sister still here? Isn't it your responsibility to finish my business?" Fabian asked in a hostile tone.

"The aunt who told me to keep taking care of you until the end of therapy. Although this is not my area of expertise, but because it is not good for your mother, you have already received it" replied Jamie's doctor with a break.

Fabian could not say another word, other than the swearing he made in his heart.

"How much longer ? I'm buying lunch" said Jamie's doctor.

"No brother, I want to go straight home" replied Fabian lazily.

"It's not good to deny sustenance, I wait there with Renata yes," said Jamie's doctor who then stepped foot to where Renata was.

Fabian clenched his hands again and closed his eyes hoping to just disappear from the place.

Fabian was right in front of Renata and Jamie who were walking down the aisle of the Hospital. While he occupied a wheelchair that is now pushed Andi. There was the sound of laughter Renata was talking to doctor Jamie cousin. I don't know what they're talking about but Fabian can hear clearly how Renata is that friendly with other people but not with him. Fabian again endured the pain in his heart.

Despite her refusal, Jamie's doctor insists on having lunch together. Here they are in a cafe, sitting four of them in a circle.

Jamie's doctor seems to care about Renata, how she treats her. Starting from shifting the chair for Renata to sit, asking what she wants and other things Fabian did first. Makes Fabian's heart ache. I don't know how many swearing Fabian made in his heart for Jamie's doctor, his cousin's brother.

"Why Fabian? Don't like eating here?" Ask Jamie's doctor as if there were no sins. The man asked because he saw the look of Fabian's face that was not pleasing to the eye.

"It's okay, actually I want to eat more at home," he replied ketus.

"Would you like to have lunch in take away ? But wait until we finish eating. The responsibility is over the message." This time it was Renata who spoke to Fabian.

Fabian let out a breath that felt heavy. That's not the point, not just want to eat lunch at home, just that he does not like the existence of his cousin. Not that I don't know thank you but Fabian doesn't like seeing Jamie's doctor close to his wife Renata.

"No problem, we'll have lunch here. Just so you guys feel happy that I'm happy to be with you" Fabian replied in a satirical tone.

That afternoon Celia was spoiling Fabian. Sitting on the big sofa watching his favorite cartoon show with a variety of snacks that Renata has provided. While Renata himself was watering plants near the pool but its existence is still within reach of Fabian's eyes.

That's what happened these last few days. The two avoid each other, especially Renata who avoids Fabian more. He often busies himself doing things that his assistant can actually do.

Feeling noticed Renata turned her head towards the large glass that was the barrier between her and the TV room where Fabian and Celia were. For a moment his eyes clashed with Fabian's eyes but Renata immediately decided on the sight first. He turned his head the other way avoiding Fabian's gaze.

The pain back Fabian felt in his heart.

Fabian feels no longer able to stand with Renata's cold attitude. Finally that night Fabian dared himself to approach Renata who was playing with his baby in their bedroom.

"Celia baby do you want ice cream ? If you want to ask aunt Sumi in the kitchen, but not too much" said Fabian persuaded Celia to leave her mother Renata.

"But it's Daddy's night, is mommy ngizinin Celia eating ice cream ?" Celia turned her head to Renata as if asking for approval.

Renata of course understands Fabian's intention for them to have time together, with a heavy heart Renata allows.

" Yes sure dear, but not too much and remember to immediately brush your teeth, yes" said Renata while giving a kiss on the cheeks of his son.

Celia got out of bed by jumping up and down happily and running small towards the kitchen.

Suddenly the air feels cooler even though the AC temperature remains the same.

Renata sat himself on the edge of the bed facing Fabian who was in a wheelchair.

"Do you want Fabian?" Renata broke the silence between them.

"Darling, I can't stand your cold attitude anymore. Do whatever it takes to reduce your hatred just like me, Renata. Hit me Renata ! Caci maki me ! Spit on me ! Do whatever you want, Renata, because I deserve it" Fabian said with emotion.

Renata remained silent and responded coldly.

"Then what's in it for me, by doing all that ? Will this eliminate Fabian's harsh reality? No, no ? I don't want to dirty my hands with unimportant things" Renata said sharply.

Fabian did not expect this to be the response of Renata. In Fabian's shadow, Renata would berate him and vent emotions blindly at him.

"I've also thought, our condition like this will have a bad effect on Celia. So Fabian, let's start over. Let's just be friends" Renata said with a smile on his face.

Fabian gasped at what Renata said.

"A.a.a.what do you mean Renata's friend?" Fabian asked.

"Yes friends, we reconcile Fabian but it does not involve feelings.Isn't this better ?" Renata asked as if there was no burden when saying it.

"No, baby, I don't want to. How can we just be friends when I love you so much" he said.
