"You're Nadine, right?" Ask the woman.
"I-yes, I'm Nadine. Sorry, who's it?" Nadine asked the woman in front of her who was wearing formal clothes.
"I am Ria, Heru's wife." Ria reached out to Nadine. Nadine welcomes Ria's hand. They shake hands. Then the hand department switched to Windi.
"I'm sorry yes, we did not invite you to our wedding, because it was not obtained with Heru, he said you were busy. Right so?" Ria took a sitting position facing Nadine. Nadine just nodded her head. It seems ordinary. Almost invisible expression of surprise or even heartache with the presence of Heru's Wife.
But for those who have known Nadine for a long time, like Windi, must understand Nadine's facial expression. That there was an expression of dislike implied on Nadine's face.
"Yes already then, Emmm..Oh yes, at the beginning of marriage, Heru once asked permission for me to keep communicating with you until you can move on from him." Clearly Ria without pause.
Nadine scrunched her forehead. Nadine thought something was wrong with Ria's explanation. It was precisely Nadine who asked Heru to stop contacting her but Heru insisted on wanting to stay in touch with the reason of wanting to stay in a relationship even though he was no longer a girlfriend.
"I agreed when Heru asked for permission that, I understand, the news of our marriage was impromptu, so maybe this is what caused you to need time to release Heru, so, I understand so I allow Heru to communicate with you" explained Ria again.
"But I hope you can move on soon, because if I'm honest, I'm annoyed with Heru's frequent contact with you." Continue Ria, this time with a fierce facial expression. He blatantly shows his dislike expression to Nadine as well as Windi, Nadine's friend.
Meanwhile, Nadine's expression was the same as Ria's initial acquaintance. There seems to be no change, at first glance. Yes, Nadine tried her hardest to control her emotions. Precisely what looks gregetan is Windi. From then on he clenched his hand. But Nadine repeatedly patted Windi's hand as a sign Nadine did not want Windi to act. Because it could be the third war if Windi acts.
"Hi, Nad, Win, it's been a while?" Suddenly Kian's voice came from behind Nadine and Windi's position. They both look. It seemed like a quick step was approaching them.
When it was close, Kian also greeted Ria.
"Eh elo Ri" Sapa Kian then he took a sitting position next to Ria.
"Yes, did you make a deal with Nadine?" Search Ria.
"No, ask doank, but thank God, I'm smiling, meaning Nadine has moved on from Heru" explained Ria accompanied by her nyinyir expression.
"What the hell Lo, if there is no interest mending elo go deh" drive Kian to the point. And yes, Kian's words managed to make Ria immediately move away from them.
Windi stared at Ria's departure. His hands were still clenched and then hit the dining table in front of him. While Nadine, raised her head while sighing. He tried to hold back the tears on his cheeks. But the effort was not entirely successful. Because there was a tear that escaped from his fortress. Yes, Nadine is crying. And Kian saw that.
"Nad, are you okay?" tanya Kian while looking at Nadine inside. But that look was unknown to Nadine.
"It's okay, Bang Kian. Nadine is fine. Oya, Nadine can ask for the book right away" Nadine's pinta. He opened the small bag he was carrying and then counted the sheets of money to replace the money.
"Now, it's free" Kian handed Nadine a book.
"Don't do it, Bang Kian. Howmany? Let Nadine pay for it."
"Pay with you and pass." Answer Kian.
"Yes, thank you very much Bang Kian, Nadine promises this is the last time Nadine ngerepotin Bang Kian"
"It's often okay koq, Nad. Isn't that right, Bang Kian?" Windi suddenly nodded.
"Yes, that's okay" Kian explained as she smiled at the smile she was pointing at Nadine. Unfortunately, Nadine looked the other way. He found a figure he was so familiar with looking at him.
Herus.
Heru, looking at Nadine, fixed.
