Aryo frowned when he saw who pressed the doorbell of his house. A man he knew was standing there. The man he had not seen for a long time is back.
" Samsul, is that you. Please sit down."
Samsul sat on a chair on the terrace. Along with Aryo, he also sat there. The two are silent. It was as if Samsul was confused to start the conversation.
" Sam, how are you. It's been a long time, yeah, last time I wasn't married." Aryo started the conversation. He could see Samsul like there was something important to say.
" I'm good Yo, how are you?"
The conversation lasted a little longer. Aryo asks a lot about Sam and vice versa. And, not long after Sekar came out to bring a tray containing drinks and food.
" Yo, I'm actually here to~"
Samsul's sentence came to a halt as Sekar put down two cups of hot tea and invited the two.
" Please enjoy."
" Ahh Sekar wait. I'll introduce you to my friend. He is Samsul, my old friend. And Samsul, this is Sekar my wife."
Glug
Samsul swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. With a little clumsy, Samsul thanked for the dish given by sekar.
He is married again, do I have to say the existence of Rima to Aryo, Samsul said in his heart while drinking his tea slowly.
" Oh yes Sam, what did you say? What are you here for?" ask Aryo.
" Ahh, there's nothing Yo. I'm just playing. We haven't seen each other in a long time, have we?" answer Samsul clumsy.
Aryo returned Samsul's forced smile. Actually the purpose of Samsul coming to Aryo's house is to tell the man about Rima. Rima who currently needs support after being left by the child. And, Samsul felt Aryo was the right person.
However, it did not seem to fit his plan. Aryo just introduced his wife. Samsul finally felt hesitant to say his initial intentions.
30 Minutes passed, Samsul said goodbye to go home. Aryo actually feels awkward with the arrival of Samsul. Because, he knows exactly that Samsul is a friend of Rima. And since he separated from Rima, Samsul also never showed the trunk of his nose.
" Mad, let's talk."
" Eh, come on."
The sound of sekar disperse the daydream of Aryo. He immediately followed Sekar who had already walked beside the swimming pool on the left side of the Suseno residence.
" What do you want in this marriage? Your answer will determine my attitude. I know, we're both forced into our marriage this time. You and I don't know each other. You and I don't love each other either. We were met by the betrothal of our parents."
Aryo listened word by word Sekar said carefully. He then asked himself what he wanted with a marriage that was already religiously and legally valid.
" If I say, let's go through this marriage, then how will you behave?" aryo hatch.
" I will behave like a wife in general" replied Sekar.
Aryo threw out his rough breath. I don't know what he's gonna do now. But this is a legitimate marriage. Right now, the woman sitting next to him was his wife.
" All right, let's go through this. But I can't promise you a romantic marriage because I'm not that kind of guy."
" Yes it was cold, like ice," Sekar sibir was so slow that Aryon did not hear what he said.
The two returned to their rooms after the conversation. A decision that both of them took to accept and live their marriage together.
Not going to sleep right away. He asks permission to use Aryo's desk to check on her work. And, Aryo chose to sleep first.
" Don't be too late. Get to sleep when you're done."
" Yes, okay. A good start."
Sekar said his last sentence very slowly. She smiled faintly as she looked at the cold husband's attention. Although his attention was only as thin as a tissue but Sekar was happy. At least this is a good start for both.
Sekar struggled with financial statements that are a lot of irregularities. He made sure that this was an act of corruption. And, apparently done not once or twice, but very often.
At 23:00, Sekar began to yawn. He felt his eyes begin to sting as well. Signs it's time to rest.
" Hoaaa. All right, looks like we should go to bed soon."
He tidied up some report paper and put it back in the bag. After making sure everything went in the bag, so that tomorrow no one was left behind, he walked towards the bed and went up there.
Before laying down her body beside Aryo, Sekar looked at Aryo's face for a moment. No he denied., Aryo has a handsome face. His facial lines show the handsome men of his time. Black eyeballs, hefty hair, a pointed nose, and a thin whisker under his nose. If you can say, Aryo is like the actor Rano Karno when he was young.
" Beautiful too, but it's cold. Haish, a question that is currently lodged in my head. Why would a man as handsome as this have the heart to let go."
Sekar spoke softly, he was about to touch Aryo's face but urung. He chose to lay down his body and began to fall asleep going to dreamland.
" I don't know why Rima left me Kar?"
Apparently when Sekar spoke and looked at his face, he did not sleep at all. Aryo listened to everything Sekar said.
The man got up from the bed and walked out of the room slowly. He lit a cigarette and smoked it.
Aryo is not an active smoker. He only did that once in a while if his mind was in a frenzy. Like tonight, his mind is not lost. Aryo thought back to the conversation he had with Sekar.
" I don't know if my decision was right or not, I don't know."
