Cidro (Between Love And Wounds)

Chapter 86

The image looked at the video footage with mixed feelings. He did not expect that Karin still had a grudge against him. I don't know what Karin had in mind until she could do that.

"Where? What are you going to do after this?" ask Anne.

The image took a long breath. Then he shook weakly. Honestly, Citra has no intention at this time. He just wants peace without debate.

"Do you still want to give me a chance after seeing that video, Citra?" tian suddenly said.

The image turned its head and looked towards Tian. His feelings grew chaotic upon hearing Tian's words just now. He wanted to start over but his heart refused. His heart refused to be together again.

"I'm sorry, I can't!" answer Citra.

Tian frowned. "Why?" tanyakanya.

"We better be like this. We live our lives without any bond between us. Instead of going forward we hurt each other if we force it to continue together" Citra replied.

Anne was surprised to hear the reply of Citra. Answers that sound firm but are able to leave a scar in the look of the eyes of Citra.

"But we don't hurt each other, Citra. I never hurt you and you never hurt me" Tian said. He is still trying to get back to Citra.

"We hurt each other with our selfishness. We hurt each other with our jealousy. We hurt each other with suspicion" he said.

"But, Image! I-i-"

The image raised one hand. Gesticulating for Tian to be silent without a sound.

"Me or Dad may not feel hurt. But our little hearts are often hurt with or without us knowing it" Citra said.

"Now, ask each of our little hearts. Are there feelings of love and affection? Is there a mutual understanding and love?"

"If there is, God's way will lead us back. But if it's not there, God's way will lead us to the right heart for us" he concluded.

After saying so, Citra immediately passed away from that place. Leaving Tian with all the questions without any answers in his mind.

Anne who saw it became astonished. He's never seen this angry image. He had also never heard Citra speak this loud. Even when she was taken for granted by Azwan, Anne did not see the anger in her eyes. But now.the glint of anger was so apparent in the look in his eyes.

"Are you sure of your decision?" Anne who managed to catch up to Citra's steps ventured to ask the girl.

The image took a long breath. "Honestly, I still hold dear to Mr. Tian. But---"

"If it's still a pity why break up anyway?" cut Anne fast.

The image looked at Anne sharply. It was as if she was offended when Anne interrupted her words. Stared like that by Citra, Anne hurriedly apologized to the girl. He was so excited that he unintentionally interrupted the words of Citra.

"I don't want to hurt him with my jealousy and my stigma. I don't want to hurt him with my selfishness. He has the right to make his choice. He deserves to be close to anyone out there" Citra said.

"But it'll hurt you, Cit!" said Anne.

The image sighed once more. "I've never been hurt. He never hurt me. It was I who hurt him with excessive jealousy. Suspicion is not approximately," replied Citra.

Anne just kept quiet to hear the image's answer. For him Citra is a unique and also rare girl. He never felt hurt even though the surrounding always tried to hurt him.

...****************...

Time keeps rolling fast. It was not felt that Tian was now standing in the pelaminan with a radiant face. His face glowed happily as he stood among the guests.

"Thank you. You want to keep my days" he told Citra.

Tian let out a long breath. "Now you are happy. You deserve to have that happiness. Congratulations on your marriage" Tian said.

The image nodded while smiling. The man who accompanied Citra at the pelaminan also looked happy when he saw Tian willing to come.

"Jaga Citra well. She's the most special woman in my life. Even though we can't be together. I just want to make sure his happiness is with you" Tian said. He greeted the groom who stood boldly beside Citra.

"Thank you, Sir. Thank you for coming. I will remember your message forever. I will take care of Citra with all my soul and body" said the groom who is none other than Angga.

Tian smiled. He then shifted his body to greet the bride's family. After that he hurriedly got off the stage.

There was a pinch of pain when I saw Citra smile. There is a feeling of unwillingness when seeing Citra together with other men. But he can't do anything. He could not force his love on the image.

"Ikhlas yes, sir!" exclaimed Azwan who suddenly stood beside Tian.

"Well, even if we can't be brothers-in-law. It's as if we can still mabar." Azwan said while raising his eyebrows.

"Ehem... Ehem..."

The sound of darkness made Azwan look to his left side. A beautiful woman with an enlarged stomach seemed to be standing beside him. He stared at Azwan.

"Eh Honey. Not mabar. My dear, my beauty, my love!" Azwan.

Tian could only smile seeing that. Then he looked back at the door. He still wanted to enjoy the smile of Citra for the last time. A smile that makes him happy. A smile that could treat the wounds in his heart.

On the stage, Citra appeared to be taking pictures with Maria and her husband. Mary brought with her the three-month-old child.

"Hello, Kanzen! You are big yes. It's getting funnier you." The image touched the little boy's hand gently.

"Yes, aunt. Mommy I'm a diner. So I was told to eat the same Mommy. That's why I'm round now." Maria said as if it was Kanzen.

Citra and Angga laughed at Maria's funny behavior. "Are you not a lover, too, dear?" whispered Angga.

The image turned and looked at him sharply. "Don't fuck around. Put it first after the event is over" Citra whispered.

Angga just grinned to hear the words of the wife. He was happy because he finally had the image. He can smile and always be there for her.

"Where's anne, Cit?" ask Maria.

Hearing that, Citra circulated her gaze. He looked for Anne's invisible figure everywhere.

"So it's here the same Ustaz Haydar. But there is no right now" he said.

"Go to the room like that, honey. Understandably pregnant young," said Angga.

Maria Manggut-mangut heard Angga's reply.

Now everyone has found their happiness. They found each other's happiness. There are no more sad cries like before. No more pain and disappointment ever inflicted by the past.

"Now, enjoy your happiness, Citra! I will always pray for you from afar!" tian said inwardly.

After that he walked out of the building. Although his heart throbbed pain, but he was happy to see the former happy.
