FIRST AND LAST

" i want this marriage annulled ."

Everyone there looked surprised, Rey was no exception .It was completely unexpected that Agnes could make this quick decision for their relationship .

" Nes you're serious ?" Ask Nisa surprised .

Agnes nodded .

" but why ...didn't you really want this marriage ?"

" yes ma ..but for whatever reason I married someone who never loved me all this time ." Agnes replied firmly, looking at Rey and seeing the look in her eyes seemed to show her guilt .

" but you always say right, it does not matter ..certainly later after marriage love can grow by itself ."

" no ma ..seems like it's wrong, if I keep forcing to get married, it's the same that in the end I will also be tormented myself ."

Nisa sighed softly ." Yes it's up to you, the important thing is that you're happy ."

Agnes was silent for a while, staring at everyone there , who was staring pity at her .For this time he tried to stay strong, so that everyone here knows, without Rey his life would be fine, even though his heart was broken into pieces .

" Andin .." call him .

" yes ." Andin looked at him .

" we can talk ..Two ."

Andin stared at Vienna and saw a nod there .

He stood up and approached Agnes, then they both went to the back porch .

" why Nes ?" Ask, they're just the two now .

" i'm ..I'm sincere if you want to turn it back to Rey ."

Andin looked at him, his eyes began to glaze over, but the smile on his lips seemed to show that he was fine .

" why did you suddenly change your mind ?" Ask Andin again .

" i've been rethinking ..and it's better this way , will be as strong as I force , love Rey will never be able to have ." His words were stammered, but apparently he was no longer able to hide his heartbreak, the tears were spilled as well .

Andin approached and hugged her .

" i'm sorry, yeah ." He said slowly .

Long enough they hugged , until the moment it missed , Agnes' face looked flushed and puffy .

" i've been waiting for 6 years ..." Agnes began to speak, with her eyes glaring at the green grass in front of her." waiting for Rey to love me.But nothing has changed, there is or is no you , rey's heart never changed ..there was never a place for me there ." Continue, take a deep breath & wipe away the tears that wet his cheeks .

" all this time I tried not to know about it. If Rey always find out anything about you ...even though you never met because I was sure that one day Rey would give up and open her heart to me, but it turned out to be wrong ...once I found out Rey didn't give me the slightest chance to get into her life, even just wearing our engagement ring she didn't do it .."

" you mean ?" Ask Andin curious .

" you must know that our engagement ring is deliberately wanted with the same model as Rey ever loved you .."

" i deliberately asked for all the same .. as given to you, because I want to one day be able to replace your position in Rey's heart .." he said still sobbing .

" but I see Rey always wearing your engagement ring .." replied Andin .

Agnes nodded." but that's not our engagement ring, 'cause Rey's ring has your name engraved on the inside ."

Andin widened his eyes." You're sure ?" Ask her again .

Again Agnes nodded." in surgery at the time of yesterday's accident, I removed the ring from Rey's hand ."

Andin looked at him , felt so guilty by what Agnes was feeling now , then rubbed her shoulders ." Nes , once again I'm sorry yes ..maybe because I am also you become like this ."

Agnes shook her head, then smiled." I should have realized from the beginning, Rey's love is only for you, even though I may have known and been close to Rey longer ."

" Nes ..maybe Rey is not your soul mate, but someday you will find a man who truly loves you sincerely ." Say Andin again .

" yes you are right .." Agnes holds Andin's hand." Maybe it's better for me and Rey to stay the way they used to be, that way our relationship will remain forever as friends ."

Andin nodded steadily .

Agnes is still holding her hand." Can I ask for something with you ?" Ask again .

" yes .. of course ."

" please never stayin Rey again ..he will be destroyed if there is no you, for the last 6 years I can feel it, there is no spirit whatsoever in his life ,very different when you were together ."

Andin just smiled, without answering .

" i saw Rey always happy and able to laugh when you were next to her, it never happened when with me or any woman ...maybe you're the first and last for her and I'm giving up on being able to get her love again now ."

" yes I promise I will not leave Rey ..and also will not leave you alone ...because we are also friends right ?"

Agnes nodded , then they hugged , again .

After that they went back into the living room .

" ma, we go home now ." Invite her, Nisa nods and approaches him .

Riki and Susi also say goodbye home .

Vienna then into the , see Bella in the room .

They were only left alone as Andin held Rey's left hand and removed the ring that was on her finger .

" what's the matter ?" Ask Rey to wonder .

Not answering, Andin immediately took off the ring and read the engraving of the name on the inside of the ring .

Agnes is right .It's called there .
