But not Me

But not Me
Smell it again



Over time, although not separated, Bagas and Kamila's relationship deteriorated, there was never again a conversation between the husband and wife, although now Kamila has changed and often stayed at home, he said, fixing all his bad attitude and keep trying to make Bagas want to forgive him and love him again like before, but the smell of Bagas never saw all the changes that Kamila did, he said, even Bagas now chose to stay in his rumh pavilion instead of staying in his main house, in addition to avoiding frequent encounters with Kamila, he also often felt that Dara was present at that place, say Bagas crazy, but his longing for a wife he does not want it makes him a figure that is like losing his mind and spirit.


Losing Dara, who has now been running for more than half a year, made him a worse person than when he lost Kamila first.


Often times the inner Bagas asked, where Dara went, or still live he, what if what the police said at that time was true, that Dara in Tengarai was two-bodied when found, what if what was true, that Dara in tengarai was two-bodied when found, how is the fate of their hearts?


All those thoughts that sometimes make Bagas depressed, so secretly he often met a psychister to pour out all the burdens that only he pendam alone, so secretly he often met with psychister to pour out all the burden that he was alone, he realized that this time the burden was too heavy and therapy was the only way for him to keep a slightly sane mind.


"Where are you going, baby?" tanya Kamila who deliberately intercepted Bagas on the porch of his house because now Bagas rarely enter the main house, while he was also strictly forbidden to enter the pavilion area.


Kamila was unable to resist or resist all the rules that applied to her, nor the sometimes painful coldness that Bagas showed her, for him still stay with Bagas and enjoy all the luxuries and facilities that Bagas still gives him even though it is somewhat reduced, it is enough, still good thing he was not kicked out of the house, because of his affair with the mercenaries, so he thought surviving would be better for him.


"How important is it for you to know my business?" said Bagas cold.


"Ah no. Isn't today your birthday,? I'll cook your favorite meal, I hope you will have dinner with me tonight at home." Kamila replied calmly, she is now used to receiving Bagas' cold treatment, more precisely getting used to.


But Bagas only looked on without answering yes or no, too lazy it seemed for Bagas to interact for too long with the woman who used to be very loved and in his majesties, but now it seemed as if there was no meaning in his eyes since the revelation of his wife's affair, even now he was a fool if Kamila chose to leave his life, it's just that he can't divorce Kamila yet because Kamila always begs and begs him not to divorce her, because he now has no one else, his parents no longer care about him.


For humanitarian reasons, Bagas allowed Kamila to stay in his home, with the status of his wife even though they had never really become husband and wife, even since the marriage was carried out.


Bagas walked the corridors of the capital's largest private hospital, today a routine schedule for therapy, and, every night even he could hardly fall asleep without the help of sleeping pills that he got without the doctor's prescription, his mind was always chaotic after the night before, the shadow of Dara always ruffled his mind brutally.


"Sorry!" said the woman who had just come out of the obgyn room, her already enlarged stomach


looks very difficult when about to take the key that fell from his grasp, so without a doubt he hit Bagas' body.


Bagas who was focused on his steps just took a quick glance and then continued on his way, that is how Bagas is now, cold and indifferent to anyone around him, but at that time his nose was accidentally raised the smell of baby molonge that Dara used to use, Bagas still memorized the fragrance, even he bought a dozen or so molongs and he stocked in his room, sometimes he splashed it on the mattress to feel like there was a figure of Dara in his bed.


But when he turned around and tried to make sure that the woman was not the figure he had in mind, the woman had disappeared, 'so quickly gone?!' Inner Bagas commented, but he only sniffed his shoulders no matter, the colole was sold freely in the market, anyone can wear it, he thought again trying to deny.


After a moment of knocking on Faisal's door, the door finally opened as well, it happened that it was already afternoon, and Faisal had already finished practicing.


"Hi Cal, long time no news, are you still mad at me?" greet Bagas, they are indeed used to quarrel and make up again after, but this time they did not see each other for a long time.


"Ah, no. It's just that the last few months I've been busy there and there's no time to go home" Faisal said.


Again, Bagas's nose seemed to smell the molole again in Faisal's room, as he entered and sat in Faisal's work chair. Bagas nose kembis kempis sniffing to his left and right, it seems his nose is not wrong, he did smell the fragrance, the fragrance is very familiar.


"Are you wearing a baby colonge?" tanya Bagas curious.


"Baby molong? Where's there!" elak Faisal frowned in confusion.


"I smell that fragrance here, I'm so sure!" keukeuh Bagas's.


"Oh, maybe the perfume of my last patient, she brought her baby here" Faisal said.


"Owh,," Bagas was just a mangosteen when Faisal said that.


"Do you want to go out to eat with me? Did you forget I had a birthday today?" bagas.


"Ah yes, happy birthday bro, but sorry, there is still a lot of work to be done today, next time maybe we can eat together!" reject Faisal.


Although the look of his face was disappointed, but Bagas could understand, since his cousin's job did not have working hours, whenever in need had to come soon, eventually Bagsa was ready to go home.


After Bagas' departure from his room, Faisal immediately opened the curtain of his examination room, appearing a large pregnant woman with a pale face silent in fear hiding there.


"Well, are you okay?" faisal asked very worriedly.
