Dusk Limit Towards the Morning (Rain)

Small Quarrel

After the wedding Leandricho did not respond well at all. I lived my life like a stranger to her. He was often overtime and rarely went home. I always prepare her favorite meal, waiting for her to come home to welcome her. But it was all a waste, even though he never ate with me. Sometimes he comes home just to change his clothes and then back to the company. The thing that confused me the most was when he met Dad, Papa and Mama his attitude changed. It's like our relationship is okay.

"Leandricho's? What time are you coming home? I'll prepare your favorite dinner." My speech.

"Sorry Gea. I can't go home because I'm overtime. In the company there's still a lot of work to be done tonight." Reply Leandricho from across the phone.

I bit my dry lips and uncontrollable tears began to flow down my cheeks. The phone call was switched off by Leandricho. I recovered my frustration, took a deep breath.

When I got married I shouldn't have expected much from Leandricho. I was too naive to think that she would change and love me.

I have done my duty to be a good wife to her, but Leandricho's heart and mind are not my own.

Ever since I was in school and since that match, it's been nine years. I'm satisfied even if Leandricho doesn't love me. The cold air makes me tremble, my daily activities are still the same watching TV alone, sleeping alone and eating alone. The house is a gift from my father for our wedding. But after the wedding most of the time I was alone. Although there was a slight fear of losing Leandricho. With the current Leandricho, it was possible that he could have turned to Mitha.

The feeling of being carried to bed. Then I woke up, the house still quiet and did not feel the presence of Leandricho.

"It's very late. Why I can wake up. I just want to fall asleep tonight when I wake up it's morning. I'm too lonely to wake up in the middle of the night." Mumbles.

This morning I prepared Leandricho's favorite breakfast of fried rice with half-cooked beef-eye eggs. Very early in the morning I prepared this so that when Leandricho arrived home I had prepared everything perfectly.

Geck... Geck... Geck..

The sound of the door being knocked.

"Ah. That must be Leandricho." I murmured with excitement.

I opened the door with great enthusiasm.

"Have you come home?" I asked with a big smile.

But there was no response from Leandricho.

"Let me carry the bag." I took the bag he was holding.

Leandricho walked into the house, an expression that was still the same as before. It's cold!

"I've prepared your favorite breakfast. You better wash your face and wash your hands and have breakfast first." My love.

Leandricho walked towards the bathroom without a word.

"Let's sit here and have breakfast soon." I pulled up a chair to sit down.

I took the rice on her plate and gave her a half-cooked beef-eye egg.

She started wearing it, even though she didn't respond to anything I said I was happy if she wanted to eat with me.

"You said all night that you work late but why when you come in the house do I smell the perfume of a woman from your clothes?" I was curious and broke the silence between me and him.

Leandricho was suddenly seen losing interest in eating and wiping his lips with a paper napkin.

"I married you because everything was a family wish. And it's just a wedding on paper, even though I never really thought about being by your side. So don't interfere faithfully in what I do and do enough of your duty as my wife. Don't let me hate you more and more and more." He wanted an angry face full of hate.

He walked off the dining table.

I just lowered my head. My heart hurts like it was pierced. I knew very well that Leandricho didn't love me from the beginning, he just pretended that he loved me in front of everyone.

"Are you still thinking about Mitha?"

"Do you want Athagea?"

"We're married now, but you're acting like you don't think I exist. I know and understand this marriage is just the will of two families. But can you be nice to me just a little bit. At least assume I exist and consider me your wife."

"Have enough yet?" Leandricho's eyes were filled with hatred and anger.

"Athagea from the start you didn't realize it or just pretended? You should know I don't like this and in the slightest I'll never assume you exist!"

"That sucks!" Continue leaving me.

My heart really hurts, my life is ruined.

From the cupboard were taken blankets and pillows, Leandricho prepared to sleep in the guest bedroom. I can only be silent with worry. Clasping both hands tightly with his gaze fixed on Leandricho.

After overtime, usually in the morning go home for a short break and leave again to the company.

My head suddenly felt dizzy and heavy, feeling warm flowing from my life.

"Blood?"

"Ah. I have to be like this again." I muttered with annoyance and headed for the bathroom to immediately clean the blood flowing from the nasal cavity.

Drett... Drett.....

My phone's ringing.

"Who called me this early in the morning?" I took my phone out of my pants pocket.

"Well, what's wrong Mama?" I said after picking up the phone that turned out to be from Mama.

"Sorry Athagea. Mama bothers you early in the morning. Mom and Dad are going overseas this morning. Mama Leandricho but no answer from him." My mother explained.

"Oh. Leandricho is resting Ma. He just got home from the company because last night he had to be late." My answer is to find a reason.

"Had to be so hard to call. Later news him that Mama and Papa will be out of the country for a while." Pinta Mom.

"OK Ma later I will tell you." Reply understand.

"Alright then we'll have something to go for." Mom turned off the phone.

"Huh.."

I took a long breath.

"What country did Mom and Dad go to see Charles?" Mumamku.

My footsteps moved towards the living room, looking at Leandricho who had begun to fall asleep. "Leandricho's? Have you slept? Richo?" I asked many times but there was no answer.

The position of the henchmen. His face that looked handsome with disheveled hair but still looked handsome.I approached him who was sleeping. Squat down by her bedside and caress her hair. His face that seemed to be getting clearer up close left me stunned and fascinated.

"What are you doing?" chanted Leandricho immediately dodged from near me.

"sorry. I'm. I was not intentionally. I just, just wanted to say that mom is going abroad. Mama called and you..." I was stammered with nervousness when I was caught by Leandricho's sight.

"It's enough. I don't want to hear any excuses from you. You better get out of here. I will rest and not be disturbed. Out!" Leandricho cut my conversation.
