Forced to endure
Chapter 41



I silently listened to Likha tell her grief. I understand his feelings now.


Is there something wrong with that girl? Why is it always the husband of the person he is after? If he really intends to find a partner, that is not the way. She is not ugly, her body is good of course many single men who want to be her husband.


"Go home ... Poor son's gonna be looking for you."


"I'm afraid Win ... If I go home I can't control my emotions. I could fight with my husband in front of my son. Ever since that incident I've been trying to hold my emotions in front of my son. But the more I hold on I feel my chest getting tighter. I need to get this whole load off my chest."


Not only me and Likha alone, I think all parents do not want their children to see their parents noisily in front of them.


"Then you want how? Do you want to stay here?"


"Give me a minute ... I just want to calm myself down. After that I will go home. You don't mind if I stay here any longer?"


I just nodded. We were silent for a long time. I don't talk to Likha either. We dissolved in each other's thoughts until I finally reopened my voice.


"Maikha ... I know this is not the right time. But I want to ask you something."


"Ask me."


"Why did you change for me? What's my fault that you look like you hate me?" I finally asked what was going on in my heart.


Likha.


"I just want to know why."


"I'm sorry about that Win. I know I've been so mean to you."


"Yes, and I want to know why. Because I never felt wrong for you."


"It's not your fault, you're not wrong ... I ... I'm just envious. I feel like you're a very lucky person. Ever since you were a kid, people liked you. Your parents love you too. When you get married you get a handsome husband and spoil you very much."


"You also don't have to tire of working, your husband gives you everything you want. I see your life as perfect."


"See me ... I have to work hard to buy what I want. My husband is not as handsome as your husband, and neither is his career as good as yours."


"Where are you acting like that to me?"


Likha nodded. "Maybe."


"Somehow I feel a little happy when I hear your household is in trouble. It felt like I had finally found a blemish in your life. Even I'm happy to see you looking for work because you finally feel what I feel. I'm sorry ... "


Likha grabbed my hand. Her tears came back when she looked at me.


"I know I'm so bad to you. A friend will not be happy when he sees his friend in trouble, but I just the opposite. I'm sorry Win ... "


Actually I want to get angry hearing Likha's explanation. It felt really upset considering how he had behaved to me back then.


"That's also one of the reasons that brought me here. I think this is the karma I have to accept. Now my house is also in trouble." Likha kept sobbing and I didn't have the heart.


"Easy ... It's over."


"You forgive me Win ... " Likha clasped my hand tightly.


I just nodded. How else would you like? Revenge will not make my life calm. I'm living happily now. There is no need to remember anything and make me feel hurt again. I can forgive Mas Adji, so I can also forgive Likha.


Me and Likha were silent again.


"Have you eaten?"


Likha. "I don't have appetite."


"I ordered food. We have to eat, you'll get sick."


"No need to Win .. no need. I really don't want to eat."


"All right ..."


The mood was silent again.


"You used to how to Win?"


"You mean?"


"Your husband's affair ... What are you doing to him? Did you meet him? You talk to him?"


People do hear Mas Adji cheating, but they don't know who the woman is.


"No ... I'll just shut it up."


"Are you not angry?"


"Of course I'm angry. But my case is different with you. I didn't see my husband cheating on me, nor did I have any proof. So I can't do anything."


I finally spoke to Likha like I used to, when we were still close friends.


"Yesterday when I saw the two of them in the room, I immediately caught fire. I grabbed Eva's hair and dragged her out of my house."


I glared in disbelief. "really?"


"I feel unconscious. It felt like I wanted to beat him to death but I was afraid to go to jail." I laughed when I heard this one. And Likha saw me.


"How else would you like to win? I was really burning with emotion. Good thing my son is in school."


"Didn't anyone see your neighbor?"


"There ... but they dare not approach. I'm like a possessed man. If they're gonna interfere, maybe I'll get their hair too."


I chuckled at the thought of that incident.


"Kok laughs the hell Win?"


"I can't imagine you screaming with people's hair. Don't you think crazy?"


Likha laughed.


"Want .. yesterday when I bought vegetables, mothers on talking about husbands who were caught cheating. They talk about you again."


"Huh ...??? Seriously ...???"


"Yes ... I'm already rich people bego think they're this again talking who. Until I feel like they're fucking me again."


"Means I've gone viral in the village?" tanyanya did not believe.


"Yes," I replied without being able to help but laugh.


Now Likha is chuckling.


Finally we continued talking like friends who had not met for a long time. We're not talking about our household anymore, making us dizzy. We're talking about artists, if not Korean movies or dramas.


"I think I'm ready to go home." Likha's face already looked fresher, not as glistening as before when she came.


"Thank you Win ... I've been willing to accept you after what I did to you. Thank you for forgiving me. Thanks for comforting me too. Anyway thanks for tonight, thanks for everything."


I smiled and nodded.


"We're friends again?"


I nodded back. Then we hugged. I drove Likha to the front of the stall.


"Can I come back here?"


"Of course."


"Again thanks. See you soon."


I waited in front of the stall until Likha was nowhere to be seen from my sight. Then I went back into the stall.


I remembered my phone that I had hidden in the desk drawer and hurriedly picked it up. Mas Adji must have called because I haven't been home yet.


Right, when I opened my phone I saw Adji calling me several times.


"Darling ... You don't want to go home or what? What time is it?"


Mas Adji surprised me. Suddenly he was standing behind me. He immediately hugged me from behind and resuscitated his chin on my shoulder.


"That's why I didn't pick up the phone?" Mas Adji looked at the phone that was in my hand.


"So I was so excited to talk to Likha that I didn't know you called."


"Oh ... Aye ... She went to your nyari's house."
