Delayed Happy

Chapter 23

Vina brushed aside Devan's hand. The woman was ready to turn around to leave Devan.

“Vina wait, there's something I want to talk to you about.” Devan said as moving forward blocked the woman's move.

“What!” Ketus Vina, her eyes were staring intently at the man.

However, the pain and disappointment of past events is still felt today. Moreover, that person from the past was now appearing before him.

Devan was flabbergasted to see Vina's change in attitude towards him. Once this woman was very gentle and attentive to her, now there was no longer a soft gaze from the woman that there was only a sharp gaze that pierced the heart of the man.

“Quickly say what you want to talk about.” Vina again.

“How are you?” The first question Devan asked.

“Good. Better than when you are with you!” Vina replied by suppressing her every word.

There was a pain that Devan felt in his heart, a sense of being sliced at Vina's answer.

“Oh yes once again thank you for helping my father. You must be busy here, you can leave now. After I get back, I don't want to see you again in that room.”

“I answered your question. Move me through!” Vina was about to leave in front of Devan.

Again Vina's hand was checked by the man.

“I'll let you go. But, after you answer my question this one.” Devan still clumsily held Vina.

“Who is that kid? Why did he call you mother? Are you married?” The man brought out all the questions he had been holding in his mind.

“He called me mother because he was my son. And yes, I'm married.” Vina's lie doesn't want to tell Devan the truth.

Vina is afraid that Devan will take Naya from her.

Can't do. Naya is my life, I won't let anyone take her away from me. Vina firmly in the heart.

“Are you married shortly after we split up?” Ask Devan again. His heart was not ready to accept this.

How could Vina have a child so quickly. A 5 year old child.

Can Vina forget all our memories so quickly. Inner Devan wondered.

On the way back to Devan's puskesmas who somehow felt his heart like something was strange when he saw Naya. Whether what that feeling was, Devan himself was at a loss to explain it.

Devan, who was curious about the age of the child, asked.

It turns out that the boy is 5 years old.

Devan salut with the boy who loved his grandfather so much when his age was still very small.

***

“What do you mean?”

“The child is 5 Years old. And exactly five years ago we parted ways, is that fast you're forgetting everything? Or is there something you're hiding from me?” Devan.

The man's face was so serious. And it scared Vina, afraid that Devan was suspicious.

“But unfortunately your estimate is wrong. My son is not 5 years old but 4 years old.” Elak Vina's. The woman does not know that Devan already knows the age of the child from Naya herself who has told Devan.

Vina thought Devan was just thinking.

“I'm wrong?” Repeat Devan while pointing at himself.

“Ya.” Answer Vina quickly.

For a long time Vina felt uncomfortable being near Devan. The male authority and dominance was too strong.

“The little girl herself said that she was 5 years old. Why are you lying? What are you trying to cover from me.” Devan asked with a full glance.

“Yes. I got married after I separated from you and afterwards I got pregnant and gave birth to the fruit of my love with my husband. Do you think only you can get married and I can't!” For a long time Vina's emotions were getting on the verge of limits.

“So soon you forget everything we've been through together.” Devan shouted while shaking his head in disbelief Vina could quickly forget about it.

“Don't forget! You broke off our relationship, and then you got engaged to another woman. I also want to do the same, looking for a better man and not as jerk as you were then.” Vina said stirring.

“But I did that not of my will. I had to, and you know it.” Devan Emphatically.

“Not my business anymore. Move!” Vina replied as she quickly left Devan before the man held her back again.

Devan was just glued to his place.

Passion to pursue Vina seemed to disappear after knowing the woman had been married and had children with others.

Unfortunately, the woman who for many years could not be forgotten turned out as quickly as it found a replacement.

Devan felt this was unfair.

For years he suffered because he missed the woman, but instead the woman was happy for so long with others.

“Why when all the barriers are not there, precisely the person I want to fight back has become someone else's.” Devan murmured with his life.

“I knew I was wrong at the time. But at that time I was in the middle of a difficult choice, on the one hand there was a woman I loved very much but on the other hand there was also a woman who had given birth to me. I had no other choice, at that time my mom was sick.”

“Argghhh... This is unfair Lord.” Shouted Devan frustrated.

“Why am I the only one suffering here.” Devan said desperately.

Devan stepped into Adi's ward to send the driver home. There was no longer any point in chasing after Vina, the woman already had her own happiness.

Devan was determined to take Vina with others, even though it was difficult.

While elsewhere.

Vina ran and hid under the tree. Her tears had slid out in disrespect.

His heart was not ready to meet Devan, the man who had been with him for quite a while, the man who had been there for him during Vina's wander through the city.

And also the man who had given her a very beautiful little angel.

It is impossible if Vina says she has forgotten the man, in fact her feelings until now are still the same just that the disappointment and heartache are more dominating in her heart at this time.

“Why you should appear in my new life. Why should you help dad.” Murmured Vina spoke to herself.

“I've tried to run away from your life, but why should we be rediscovered. I'm not ready.”

Vina was sobbing under the tree.

Fortunately the atmosphere at that time was quite quiet so Vina could spill all her feelings there without having to be afraid of being seen by people.

After feeling a bit light, Vina stood up and wiped away the remains of her tears.

His feet began to step in search of a nearby stall to buy food for Adi and Naya.
