Combined In Marriage

It will be a memory

*****

In the morning Dimas and Sarah were already in the kitchen, Dimas seemed to want to make sure if Ajeng did not go on an empty stomach, while Ajeng he lingered in the room because he did not want to get up first. Ajeng went to the kitchen at half-six in the morning, his heart racing when he saw that Dimas was already sitting on the sofa in the living room.

Trying not to make the slightest sound, she walked into the kitchen looking at Sarah who was cooking, she was afraid that Sarah would react unkindly to him. But unlike her expectations, Sarah turned around and smiled sweetly at him.

"Let's go Jeng, we're cooking together" Ajeng nodded his head, thinking that Dimas had told Sarah everything because Sarah was being nice to him. Because now the woman has no rivals anymore, and after all from the beginning all the attention was just pretend or maybe she did it out of pity, Ajeng was getting sadder with all his thoughts.

Helping Sarah prepare the dinner table, Sarah calls Dimas for breakfast. Ajeng looked at Dimas walking but the man did not return his gaze at all. The three sit in their respective seats, Sarah serves breakfast for her husband, Ajeng sees a change in attitude from Dimas.

The man now ignored him, Ajeng now wondered if perhaps such a sincere looking man could pretend, then he thought again, perhaps, even if he did not pretend like he said, Ajeng would still be with his original purpose, he would stay away despite having to harbor his feelings.

He likes the man or maybe he has started to love him, but he realizes that if he will never get the love of the man, his feelings are no more important than the man. Ajeng continued to finish his breakfast, he looked at the watch in his hand but Dimas had not yet stood up from his seat, Ajeng thought of leaving first, because now he also does not need to think about the feelings of anyone in this house.

Ajeng stood up and took his old dinner plate clean for a while then put it on the plate rack, then he rushed out of the house. Today Ajeng ordered the services of an ojek, so he left for the company using the online transportation service.

Dimas stood up from his seat after Ajeng closed the door, he came out of the house when Ajeng was gone. Dimas wanted to see if his wife was really at work or if she was just trying to get out of the house. Dimas followed Ajeng, the woman did not realize it because she was currently also thinking a lot, she did not have time to think about anything else.

When he arrived at his workplace, Dimas also stopped his car a little away from Ajeng's sight, he saw his wife was currently with the woman who was also with him when he ran away from home first. Dimas left after confirming what Ajeng did outside the house.

"Adrian will come later, you want well Jeng, later my husband comes to pick me up, you are picked up with Adrian. Want to go to Jeng?" Ajeng nodded his head in agreement, now perhaps he could give Adrian hope. Even if he has no feelings for the man but he will still try to give it, he does not have to give his feelings to someone who does not reciprocate.

Ajeng thought it should be like that, Adrian is a man who wants to accept it as it is. He would not waste such a man, now he would try seriously with Adrian. At five in the afternoon Ajeng finished his work, Putri was waiting for him in front of the company building with her husband and Adrian.

To see Adrian, the man is still the same as before. That's what Ajeng thought but now that he's not in those moments, things have changed.

Dimas had been waiting for Ajeng to get out of the building for almost twenty minutes, he knew the company's working hours because he was one of the colleagues from the company, he said, he said that if his wife worked there and then he asked about working hours, they were close enough colleagues to talk about such things.

Dimas saw the woman who was his wife's best friend and the two men around him, but he didn't think much about it because he didn't know who they were. But after seeing Ajeng walking towards one of the men he so slightly thought about Ajeng's words yesterday, he wondered if it might be the man that his wife meant, the man he loved?

Dimas was very disappointed, he saw the man taking Ajeng with him. Has Ajeng been doing all that behind his back? Did the woman not feel anything as she started to touch him all this time? Dimas pulled his hair rough, he was banging his head, it seemed like his relationship with the woman did not exist from the beginning.

The innocent woman he had seen all this time, whom he was trying to give her love to, that woman was now truly no longer his. He will miss her dearly, however, her scent, her breath, and every touch they make, even though it may seem like it's nothing to what he's done with Sarah, all of that was a simple and innocent feeling like Ajeng.

Dimas Ajeng's eyes are never bad, maybe he should not give his feelings from the beginning, he will pull all those feelings back even though it will be very difficult because he will see the woman every day. Dimas let out a long sigh and left the woman's shadow, he drove the car so fast.

He came home at nine o'clock in the evening, today he was faster because he felt there was nothing to avoid in the house. When he came in he didn't see anyone, he thought that they might have gone to sleep. Entering his room, he rested all his exhausted body by lying on the bed.

Ajeng looked back at Dimas's face as he closed both eyes, then he opened his eyes back and rushed into the bathroom, Ajeng soaked his body in warm water, he subconsciously recalled Dimas again. Lately he has been thinking very often about the man, whether it might be because he misses him, but this is too soon.

Ajeng threw away all his thoughts, now that he no longer felt strange if he started to remember the man, he tried to accept his heart. Although he will never show it he will probably still love the man until the feeling will disappear by itself. He realized that his feelings were already so deep towards the man.

Ajeng finished his bath and then he put on his clothes, he tried to sleep and forget everything but he remembered it more and could not fall asleep. She reminded herself of what would happen next how she would soon be divorced by the man, thinking about it made Ajeng cry.

She still could not believe that if the man would soon be far away from her, that time maybe the man would forget about her and not remember her anymore, she might never even meet him again, she might never even see him again, Ajeng often experience that when it comes to being away from his friends, we will have our own busy lives, we will not have time to think about each other. Ajeng cried loudly but he tried to hold back his crying voice, until he started to sound as he pleased.
