Alineo! Whoever You Are, Thank You!

After Aline died, Aura decided to move on. He took the car keys and walked towards the parking lot. His destination is a luxury apartment he lived in before he married Ethan but he often lives in recent times, since his lover married another woman.

Aura drove her car towards the highway, competing with the sheer number of vehicles on this scorching Saturday afternoon. Arriving at the apartment, Aura chose to sit on the balcony of her room overlooking the artificial lake. He sat on the balcony couch, bent his knees and laid his head on his knees.

Aura pondered over the last sentence spoken by the girl. "There is still heaven above." Did the girl mean to rebuke him for his arrogance? The aura really felt slapped. The glimmers of the sentences they were throwing while in the cafe were wandering in his mind. Aura admitted, she changed a lot after marriage. She used to be a happy and friendly girl. But everything changed because of an arranged marriage that he could not refuse. He was angry, very angry, but more to his inability to cancel the match. Makes her a haughty woman, cold and untouchable, even by her own husband. Either because she can't or because her husband doesn't want to. I don't know.

Married with the path betrothed to the man of choice his parents never imagined would approach him. If in the stories of romance novels it is always the woman who is harmed, this time in her real life, she is the one who harms her husband.

Jonathan Prasetya's. A good man chosen by his parents. Handsome and loving man. Good and polite. Always trying to melt his heart even though he knew the man did not love him either. However, his attitude signifies that he is a responsible man with every decision he has taken.

Aura grabbed onto tissue, brushing the snot that flowed along with her tears that were shed without excuse. Aline's right. The girl was right. She turned into a girl with bad temper and also arrogant. Especially when he found out his lover managed to forget himself by marrying another woman. Many times she hurt her husband, but Ethan, the man is still patient with all his bad behavior. Even they slept in separate rooms since marriage and that too at her request. But still he was given a sufficient living and treated like a wife although not as perfect as he hoped.

But perfect which how would he expect from a marriage that he had treated badly from the start? A harmonious and happy home life? Is she treated like a real wife? It is the cause of all these situations. He is the one who does not accept the harsh reality. Married and then married. He fell too deeply into the destiny that God had outlined. How selfish he did not feel that there was a heart that was also hurt there.

The aura was muddled in his regret. There was so much pain that she did to her husband. There were so many wounds in the man's heart. And there are many more mistakes that he believes hurt Ethan. Her sins as a wife are countless. Never once did he treat Ethan like a husband.

A sense of tightness further filled his chest cavity, making it difficult to breathe as another sentence that the girl mercilessly threw struck right in his heart. "The silhouette photo was taken by your husband secretly a moment after I rejected it." Another fact that her man expressed feelings for the girl. A flawless girl who deserves to be loved by Jonathan Prasetya. Is there still room left in the heart of the man himself, an Aura Juliana Dika?

Aura was indeed inflamed when she found out her husband uploaded a photo of the silhouette, which is why he came to Aline to his office. There was a burning sense of pinching her heart that was already hot knowing that her husband loved another girl. Aura fell asleep in sadness and regret that was very much on the balcony sofa.

Meanwhile, either a premonition or a mere coincidence, Ethan opts for a sordid lunch at RCA, the resto of the girl's foster parents who have managed to steal his heart. The girl should be on holiday every Saturday, but not today. Aline became the maid who welcomed her arrival with a sweet smile this afternoon.

"Welcome, Mr. Ethan. Have you booked a table or are you waiting for someone?" his tanya was carefree, typical of restaurant waiters even though he realized it was just the girl's guyonan.

"Not both. But I don't mind if accompanied by enjoying this afternoon lunch," said Ethan accompanied by a smile that was no less sweet.

The girl thought for a moment. Look around the restaurant and nod. "Well, since the restaurant is not so crowded this afternoon, I will accompany you to enjoy the favorite menu of our restaurant." Aline joked, Ethan laughed crisply. "Please select the menu!"

They spent the afternoon chatting lightly enjoying the dishes. Ethan is very happy accompanied by eating by the girl of his heart.

"Thank you, have accompanied me to eat," he said sincerely after finishing his meal.

Aline chuckled at the words. "So happy to eat with me?"

Ethan laughed crisply. "For a long time! But, thanks."

"Hmmmm, how is it? You know, something made me promise not to stay away even though I broke her heart" Aline replied humorously making Ethan laugh.

"Sister," call Aline.

"Hm?" Ethan answered lazily still focus reply chat in his gawai.

"Go home!"

"You're upset with customers?" Ethan's whirling with Aline's strange request. He knew the girl didn't mean it.

Aline shrugged her shoulders in response. "Resto's starting to get crowded and you're late here." If Ethan doesn't know Aline, he'll be offended by the girl's answer. But he only raised his eyebrows, knowing there was another meaning that the girl wanted to convey behind the nonsensical sentence.

"Go home to your wife! He needs you."

Ethan returns his focus to the girl in front of him. "Aura saw you?" tanyanya seriously. "Did he hurt you?" There was worry in the voice of the man.

"No. We just met and chatted normally. It's the female chat. Brother doesn't have to worry." Aline replied in a carefree tone.

Ethan looks at Aline's net, but the girl throws her eyes in any direction. Without a word, Ethan grabs his car keys.

"I'm home. I hope Aura doesn't do anything bad to you!" then he went to the cashier.

Ethan opened his smartphone. Open an app that can find the whereabouts of his wife. Ethan's car turned toward his wife's luxury apartment.

Even though he was Aura's lawful husband, he still knocked on the door first. After all this apartment is the privacy of his wife and he respects that. Long knocking, Ethan finally pressed a line of code and the door opened. Ethan enters a luxury-style apartment with dominant shades of silver and white. His steps swung towards the wife's room. Aura fell asleep on the balcony sofa in a position of concern. Rubbish on the floor and tables. His wife had just cried Bombay.

Ethan picked up and carried the slumbering Aura very soundly to the bed. The woman was not disturbed at all, it seemed like she was very tired. Either physically tired or bathin. Or both. Ethan doesn't know.

Ethan waited for his wife by sitting on the edge of the bed. Aura's small movements made her stare fixedly at his wife.

"You ... are here?" Look at the way Aura greeted her husband! Ethan was inexhaustible, but he nodded.

"There's someone who says I should accompany my wife."

Ethan turned to his wife, folded his legs and raised them to the bed, while the other leg he left remained beside the bed. He stared at his beautiful but untouchable wife. There was a hint of worry in that black netra, as well as the obvious wobble at the end of his eyes.

Ethan took a breath. He did not know what kind of answer Aura wanted. But he chose to be honest.

"She's not that kind of woman." The aura confirmed. Although he had only met the girl twice, but he was sure that Aline was not the type of spoiled woman and complainant.

"Didn't meet at her foster parents' restaurant." Finally that sentence is slipping.

Aura grunting. "Not intentionally said? Though he knew it was the girl's family's resto." Bathinnya rebelled angrily but what power, he had no right to vent his anger. It was worse for that man.

"Is this what it's like when someone you think of ignores you and chooses to pursue another love?" the question frankly made Ethan a little surprised by the question just now. But he remained unmoved, not answering, either by word or by body language. Just looking at his wife.

Aura bent her knees again. Hugged himself. Perhaps it was time for the two of them to speak from heart to heart. Ethan was still staring at her, making a swish in her chest.

"Did she mean so much ... to you?"

Ethan remains tight-lipped. Honestly, he didn't know what to say.

"But he rejected you," chased Aura. Demand explanation.

Ethan took a breath. "You're right. He rejected me."

"What a pity for my husband." Aura tried to joke around, melting the atmosphere. Thank goodness, the effort worked. The man chuckled.

"Well, what a pity to be me. Wife rejected me. Then the woman I love rejects me." There was sadness wrapped in jokes by Ethan when he said it. Her husband is clearly not okay. Aura felt that. But hearing the confession of her husband who loves other women actually makes her more not okay.

Aura reaches Ethan's hand in her lap. Invite the man to go up to the bed and lean himself on the headboard. Then she leaned herself on her husband's arm. Ethan is surprised to get a sweet treatment from his wife. During their marriage, they rarely had any physical contact. Only in front of family. But he still enjoyed the moment. Maybe it's their time to start over. Either start as husband and wife or just be friends later. Ethan is sure, this is what will be the determinant of their steps in the future.

"Tell me about him!" pinta Aura was gentle, yet tucked firmness in her voice.

Unknowingly, Ethan stopped rubbing Aura's hair, making the woman lose.

"I just want to know what kind of woman has captured my husband's heart." Aura asked, looking at her husband's face looking straight ahead.

Ethan was unmoved but Aura kept waiting for her husband to open his voice.

"I met him when he was transferred to Legal. She's a smart, deft, yet mysterious woman, making me curious to get to know her more closely" Ethan paused his story. But Aura did not show any reaction. So he continued.

"Our closeness began when I accidentally ate at a restaurant owned by his adoptive parents. I asked him to come with me for dinner. He also worked there from afternoon to evening. He is a hard worker. That's when I realized how I felt about her. I always find a way to get close to him in the office. Ii'm sorry. I didn't mean to betray you. But at that time your divorce lawsuit was being processed."

"Continue!" pinta Aura because her husband stopped telling stories. Ethan looks at his wife who is trying hard but he still obeys Aura's wishes.

"He was warm but also cold at the same time. He is gentle but also very firm. She's a principled woman. I don't know, there's not much I can tell you because he shut down his identity. How did you meet him?"

Now, it's Ethan's turn to ask. And Aura was intending to answer all the questions that would be asked of her later.

"Caption in the silhouette photo. It all seems to slap me. That night, I opened your HP." Aura confessed, making her face and neck reddened to hold back the shame and dislike of Ethan for his confession.

"The next day I met him at the office, and then we made an appointment for today. Yeah, I asked him to see me today. We met and .. she's not like the woman I met in her office. He's different. He's compensating me for even outperforming me."

There was a frown on Ethan's forehead hearing Aura's last sentence. But he was happy Aura recognized the superiority of her puja girl. Aura waited for Ethan's reaction, but the man calmly stroked his head.

"She's a very frank and intimidating woman with her sharp words. But I was grateful, because her words made me realize that I should not expect a man who is already the husband of men, that I should be a woman of dignity and maintain the dignity of my husband, huhuhu ...." Tergugu aura. But Ethan's elusan on his head made him want to continue. She wants to be honest with herself and her husband.

Aura turned. Facing husband. Grasping those two palms.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry for ignoring you throughout our marriage. I'm sorry if right now I'm being too selfish to expect you to always be by my side. I'm sorry .. I'm sorry .. but please, don't let us get divorced. I want to age with you." Collapsing was already Aura's defense. She was crying in front of her husband.

Ethan pulls his wife's body, clutching her in his arms. "Crsssstttt .... Already, already. I'm not going anywhere." Ethan answered after a long time turbulent with his bath. He decided to defend his ship. Like her girl's request not to allow her ship to shipwreck.

Aura looked at her husband.

"Come, heal these wounds both!" he said softly, stroking his wife's face, "and fixing everything!" making Aura squander into her husband's arms.

Inwardly he thanked the intimidating haughty girl. "line. Whoever you are, thank you!"
