Forgive Me, Love

65. The Former

The day keeps changing. It's been three weeks Boby's been busy with his work. Go to work early in the morning and go home late at night. The intensity of the meeting of a couple was greatly reduced. But Novia tried to always understand. Because her husband is doing a lot of work.

Even Novia had not had time to tell Boby that she was pregnant. Because they rarely meet.

Novia has been busy lately. Begin ahead of the National exam for students of class XII. He had to give extra hours when school hours were over.

Until the day UN Novia remained busy taking care of all kinds of things. Start child payments for UN fees, take care of consumption for exam supervisors, and so on.

Fortunately, Novia's health condition has improved. Even though morning sickness is still felt, but at least now he does not feel lazy to do anything. It is also not easy to get sleepy.

It's been two days that Boby has been in Yogya. As usual, almost every day he would contact his wife if she was out of town like this or when she had to be overtime at the office. Either by phone or just a message.

That day is already late at night. Boby was done with his business that day and he was back at the hotel. He took the phone out of his pocket intending to contact Novia. But only then will he push the name 'EKRU', an incoming message.

** Hi, Bob. How are you doing? fill in that message.

** Sorry, who is this? reply Boby.

** Have you forgotten about me? messages from unknown persons

** Can I call you? he added.

** Please. reply Boby

Not long after, Boby's phone rang. A call came in but it only had an unknown number written. Boby swiped the screen of his phone receiving the call.

" Hello! Who'sis this?" ask Boby

" Hello, Bob. "greet the man across.

Boby was surprised to hear the voice of the person across. He knew that voice very well. The voice of someone who is always in his heart. The voice of someone he had always expected his arrival to.

The atmosphere was quiet for a while. Until the person across the street opens the conversation again.

" Hello, Boby. You still there? " ask the man.

" EHm. " Boby cleared his voice. Right now his heart and mind were raging.

" Don't you remember me? "

Boby did not answer. He's still a little shocked at the moment.

" Karell.." replied Boby.

" Yes, it's me. You how are you? "

" I'm.I'm good. You how? "

" I'm good. I'm glad you still remember me."

" hm. " Boby is still confused as to what to talk about.

" Bob, the day after I'm coming home. "

Boby who heard it, smiled. There was a sense of happiness in his heart hearing the woman he had missed for so many years was finally going home.

" If I go home, can we meet? "

" God willing. If I'm not busy. "

" I'll wait whenever you have time. "

" yes. "

" Yes, I hung up. I'll see you tomorrow. "

" yes. "

" Boby, I miss you. "call is over.

Boby's heart was beating really fast. He forgot he was going to call his wife. After hearing Karell's voice, somehow Novia's name seemed to disappear from her memory.

Boby opened his cell phone gallery. Opening the photos that have been several months never once he opened. Photos with Karell. She recalls the wonderful memories of when they were together. The love that has disappeared since he knew Novia, as if now it has been present again.

Almost overnight Boby couldn't close his eyes. Karell's shadow is like a movie being played.

While at home, Novia is also waiting for Boby to contact her. There was no news from Boby that day. Actually Novia really wanted to call but she was afraid to interrupt. Eventually all night she could only hug her phone.
