Choosing Love !?!?

Farewell I...

" Are you looking for me? " ask Alex when he's in Mr. Radit's room.

"Alex I'm sorry, I can explain everything." Chris got up from his seat and walked over to Alex.

"What explanation can you give me so I can forgive you. There aren't. It's not a misunderstanding like the one I had with Madeline," Alex said, trying to suppress her voice that was rising in anger.

Chris stood still. What Alex said was true. He's absolutely guilty of this, but he doesn't want to lose Alex.

" I admit it's my fault, a very big mistake. I'm really sorry, can't I get one more chance to make amends? " said Chris lirih.

"I'm sorry I can't" Alex said, his voice trembling withholding emotion.

"I hope you stop looking for me and beg like this. My decision is round. I was also wrong for forcing myself too much to get into your way of life. We both force ourselves too much to get into each other's lives. It's both of us's fault, and it's enough to get here before we suffer more than this. Excuse um. " Alex passed out.

Alex's tears have fallen. Mr. Radit who was standing near the Bar area immediately approached Alex and took him to the back through the back door of the Bar closest to his office.

" Alex you better go home and rest, I've called Jane to replace you. Calm yourself at home yes," said Mr. Radit.

"Thank you sir" Alex said.

It seems Mr. Radit's advice is correct. There was no way he could continue working with tears that kept flowing.

"Change your clothes, let me take you home."

"Thank you once again sir, but I don't want to trouble you" Alex refused.

" This is an order, it is not ashamed already big gini cry, later people on your train, "said Mr. Radit a little funny so that Alex a little entertained.

On the way home Alex managed to stop her tears, but she was only dumbstruck with a blank look, as if her soul was not in her body.

Mr. Radit looked at him with pity. He doesn't know how to. Had I had the chance to be Alex's first lover, you would never have been hurt like this. Mr. Radit's mind in the heart.

Yes it is true, since the beginning of the opening training Black Grill in Paradiso Radit has been interested in Alex, especially it turns out he is very enterprising work and always professional. His make-up is always natural and his polite attitude makes Alex look as a dream wife in the eyes of Mr. Radit.

Unfortunately the plan that was about to approach Alex slowly dashed when he heard the rumors of the scandal that circulated lately. Mr. Radit had to swallow a bitter pill because his ideal wife-to-be already belonged to his superior. Well, even though it seems like their relationship has now ended, it does not mean that he can immediately offer himself as a substitute for his superior position.

"Alex, we've arrived" said Mr. Radit patting Alex's shoulders still daydreaming.

"Sorry sir, I'm dumb. Thank you sir." Alex immediately got out of the car, nodding once more towards Mr. Radit before stepping into his house.

I must have caught up with Dad. Alex thought when he saw the house was empty. He went straight to the room and cried out, blurting out all his mixed emotions. Trying hard is not easy.

Andre who came home from work that afternoon was shocked to see his sister at home, especially with swollen eyes.

"Did that jerk bother you at work?. That's where he's got it, at will. The manager there can't say don't bring personal business to work," said Andre upset

Alex also explained that Mr. Radit, his superiors have helped as much as possible.

" Yes already, you should take a leave of absence first, until your condition is stable. Free also work but until there he was crying again," said Andre gave advice to his sister.

"Yes, I called my manager. I'm on leave for a week" Alex said.

"If you want to go where the anther brother does not have to go alone," said Andre again, at the mouth with a nod by Alex.

Alex was home more often. A thousand times Chris called him none of Alex replied. The message was not read either. His four best friends Ratna, Stefi, Nayla and Bimo visit him occasionally. Ryan often calls her on video calls. Even some of the other fellows in the Black Grill also gave her some spirit. If you are with family or friends Alex can be a little comforted, but when himself the cry immediately broke.

"Are you sure you can go back to work tomorrow?" asked Nayla who had come to visit.

"I've made Nay's decision that I'll quit my job there" Alex said with a wry smile.

Although still crying like a weak person all this time Alex thought about everything seriously. The sadness and pain may take a long time to heal, but Alex does not want to fall too long. He will learn to enjoy his sadness and make friends with his pain to move on with his better life.

"I don't want you to go, Lex, but if that's what's best for you, I'm sincere."

"What the hell is Nay, lebay ah. If there is a meatball brother through you, there could be a misunderstanding. I'm rich talking to my boyfriend," said Alex joking. They're in a room where maybe a meatball brother passed by.

"I want to entertain you, but I'm the one who makes me laugh" Nayla said, chuckling.

********

As planned, the next day Alex came to the restaurant and directly faced Mr. Radit to submit his resignation letter.

"I understand you're Lex, but you know the rule, if you have to hand in a letter a month earlier than your last day at work. If you want to resign on the same day as the submission of the letter you have to pay a penalty," said Mr. Radit explained.

" I accept the risk, sir, "said Alex who has made his determination.

Mr. Radit asked Alex to bring all the attributes of the restaurant that had to be returned to Joyce, assistant manager for the check.

After all, Alex returned to Mr. Radit's room to find out how many penalties he had to pay.

"OK, now you're signing here as proof that you've met all your resignation requirements," mr. Radit said, handing over a paper listing all the resignation requirements in 24 hours and all of them were grass-ticked.

" But sir, I haven't paid his penalty, "said Alex confusedly.

" Alas tomorrow when I announce who won your award there is no yes, but it is not what matters you are happy" said Mr. Radit.

" Remember Lex you have to be happy" she shook Alex's hand tightly.

If next time your wounds heal we meet again, and we are both alone, I will no longer buy time to approach you. That's the meaning of Mr. Radit's close position.

After saying goodbye to his co-workers and promising that they will keep in contact and become friends, Alex then said goodbye.

******

Alex preoccupies her idle life by helping her brother prepare for his engagement. Although only attended by the extended family of both parties and closest friends it turns out quite a lot of things that need to be prepared.

Chris never contacted him again, but he still sent Alex an apology, and none of Alex read.

" Dad, Mother, Brother Andre, someone wants Alex to talk about it" Alex said as they relaxed while checking back all the preparations that had been completed for the engagement tomorrow.

"Alex wants to continue studying abroad" he continued.

At once his family members seemed shocked to hear Alex's words. Indeed they know that Alex really wants to continue college and all this time he saved up for it because he did not want to bother his family, but they did not expect if Alex chose to study abroad.

"Can't it be here, in another city, or where your uncle is?. There's a lot of great colleges, right?" said Mother who was worried if her only daughter lived in a distant and foreign place.

"Are your savings enough to go to college there? I will help you as much as I can, but is that enough. This is Lex's college, not just a vacation," his father told Alex to rethink his decision.

"Sister will certainly help you, but Brother does not want if the reason for your choice is only to avoid the man," said Andre seriously.

Alex also explained to his family if his decision was unanimous and he had sought information about all the things he needed. Actually ever since he met Chris at the restaurant for the last time, he had already thought things through to the smallest thing. There was also a lot of advice he got from his best friend, and he eventually chose to continue his dream of earning a college degree.

Alex also wants to find a new atmosphere so that his mind can be more distracted. He also does not want to always look sad and cry in front of his family, so it is better to go as far as possible.

"But then out there you don't have anyone Lex, if it's still easier here, want in another city is also okay. We can still go there after you. It's a tough out of the country, isn't it." I tried to persuade Alex.

"There's Ryan, Mom. I'm going to the state of NY on campus with Ryan. All of them will help, so I'm not alone" replied Alex.

Indeed, since deciding to go to school abroad, Alex immediately asked Ryan for advice, and his friend was very supportive of his decision. Ryan searched for all the information about the university that Alex might like, including proposing the university where he went to college, where he lived and the rental price, until internship vacancies are often filled by college students to increase pocket money.

Seeing Alex's determination, his family could not say anything. Although still worried, but at least there is Ryan who is willing to help.

"When do you plan to go, son?" ask Dad.

"Another month Well. Actually everything is sorted out, I stay re-registered later once I get there, my study visa is also next week already so. If it wasn't for my dear brother's wedding maybe I left next week," Alex replied in shock.

They thought it would take a long time to process everything.

" Well, Mom, Andre got married next year anyway, "joked Andre.

" Hus, you don't talk carelessly. Pamali, "mom's reprimand.

Inevitably his family must defend the chest to accept Alex's decision. Maybe this is the best, and hopefully their little girl can come back cheerful and excited.

* ** **

"Buuuu, these two guests were not invited" Alex said, pointing at Ratna and Stefi.

They are not both relatives of the bride and groom, nor friends or close friends of the bride and groom, so Alex calls the two friends un invited guests.

"Yeeee, Andre's brother we already think his own brother knows," Ratna protested supported by a nod from Stefi.

"Is there anything we need to help Auntie?. Here let Stefi help you." said Stefi while taking over the tray containing dirty glasses from the hands of Alex's mother.

"It's a dong sometimes useful little as a guest," said Alex continued his joke.

Those who had laughed happily suddenly fell silent to see a figure passing through the door of the building where the engagement was held.

Chris looked handsome with a black suit immediately greeted by Pak Jaya, the father of the woman. It is not surprising that if they know each other and relate well, both are rich people who are equally influential in the business world, so it is certain that Pak Jaya invited Chris.

Ratna invites Alex to enter the back room where food and drinks are prepared, but Alex refuses. He wanted to show Chris that he was okay, even though his heart was hurting.

Alex is actually more worried about his brother Andre, lest this event be damaged because his brother can not control his emotions.

Fortunately what Alex feared did not happen, even though his brother did not smile, but at least he still returned Chris' hand. And even more profitable, Chris did not have time to approach Alex, because the invitees of the women were mostly business people and they always invited Chris to chat. Every time Chris was about to approach Alex there must be another guest greeting him, and then Alex used to make the distance as far as possible from Chris.

I'm sorry Chris, I still can't look at you anymore. Alex said to heart.
