Grasping Taste

Fainted

"What makes you survive. Though clearly Mas Sabda like that, Run." asked Tita when driving Aruna home.

The white car turned towards the complex so calmly. Their meeting which was planned for a while turned out to be far from expected. Tita invites Aruna to see the atmosphere outside so that Aruna can forget a moment of sadness.

"Surely besides your baby candidate, Run? Or are you afraid of what people say? " continued Tita who was still staring at the road ahead.

Aruna shook her head," I love Mas Sabda. It seems excessive for people who do not feel what is being felt by someone who is at the boundary between separation or survival. Because once I make a decision I will not look back again and I will not regret." replied Aruna. Tita can understand, every married person must have no thought to separate.

Tita stopped her car right in front of the nicest house among the ranks of houses with uniformed models.

"Run, if there's anything, please don't hesitate to contact me. I would be happy to help you." Tita said making Aruna smile. At least he felt he was not alone facing everything. Aruna who initially did not want to tell her family problems, finally had to confide with Tita. Tita already knows everything, so there is no other reason to cover up the disgrace of her family to others.

"Thank you, the ice cream" Aruna told Tita. On the way home, Tita bought Aruna ice cream which was dominated by chocolate. Aruna just ate something that smelled of chocolate.

"Tama-sama." replied Tita. The girl finally drove off with her car leaving Aruna still standing looking at her disappearance.

Aruna is gathering all her energy to be able to perform in front of the Word if she is in good condition. Nothing changes from an Aruna, though Sabda ignores him.

It looks like the Word car is lined up with his motorbike in the garage. That means the Word has come home.

Aruna walked with ice cream in her hand and a box of food. As it turned out, Sabda had already opened the door when she almost opened it.

"Run, where are you from? The call back is off." lick Sabda. Seeing the face of the man in front of her looking panicked, Aruna just laughed loudly in her heart.

Her husband is too good to pretend. Her number was inactive.

"Bateku lowbatt, Mas." replied Aruna

"Thank you for remembering me, Mas. At least, Mas Sabda, do not forget that I am still there." continued Aruna then kissed the back of Sabda's hand so reverently. The word that heard the strange answer from his wife was just stunned staring at the passing Aruna.

"Mas Sabda has eaten?" tanya Aruna turned to her husband who had been tailing behind her steps.

"Yet. Mas, waiting for you." answered Sabda looking at his wife who was so calm. But that calmness was clearly like giving her some distance.

"Let's go, eat!" bring Aruna. He no longer changes clothes. He immediately took the plate and placed it on the table, arranging the food he had bought from outside.

"You don't eat, Run?" ask Sabda when he sees Aruna arranging a plate of food. He then sat down with a box of chocolate ice cream that he felt like he wanted to spend if he could cool down the feeling.

"I've eaten with Tita." replied Aruna without seeing the Word. Somehow seeing Aruna like that, Sabda was anxious.

"Don't eat too much ice cream, Run. It will hurt." continued Sabda. The man only saw Aruna smiling with a lowered face. She felt like Aruna was reluctant to see her.

Just as Sabda finished dinner, the phone in front of him rang. He glanced at Aruna who was looking at him.

"Just give it a shot, Mom!" aruna's speech made Sabda stand up and receive a call that Aruna also knew from the woman.

Aruna smiled cynically, laughing at her which was not considered at all by her husband. What else is he here for? thought Aruna.

"Run, Mas, go first!" said Sabda when he found Aruna still in the same place and the same expression.

"Do as you please, Mom. I will never forbid you at all." said Aruna, making Sabda look at Aruna with a look of ignorance. The man was even made agitated by Aruna's attitude.

"Run, you're not angry, are you?" tanya Sabda was still standing in front of Aruna with the car keys and mobile phone in hand. She waited for Aruna to look at her.

"Does Mas Sabda still think of me?" tanya Aruna made the Word snort. The man still had not seen his wife's face. Suddenly there was a sense of indecision in the Word, when he heard Aruna's attitude towards him.

"Runa." the word hangs. The word phone went off again. Anin called Sabda again. But the man did not lift it.

"I've said it, Mas. Do it before I change my mind." continued Aruna. He closed his eyes and heart. Whatever the decision of the Word, he had already turned off the taste.

He will not hold the Word to hold on. He did not want to bind the man's body if his heart was still attached to his past love.

Hearing the roar of the car that was getting away made Aruna cry hysterically. His heart still hurts even though he has rounded the throat but still his heart still hurts. The departure of the Word this time as if stating if he really prefers the woman.

The tiny hand stuck out with the face resting on the table. All his energy just escapes. In fact, to make a sound he was unable to.

Aruna Pov's

This is the point that makes me sick the most. Yes, when I was hoping Mas Sabda would keep this marriage, but the truth is that he chose his past love.

The beginning of a marriage should only be happiness, but it is quite the opposite. I was in pain myself, someone who was supposed to embrace me calmed other women down.

I will not hold Mas Sabda back, not because I do not want to maintain this sacred relationship. Or I don't know how to tie that guy up. But, I just want if Mas Sabda comes back, then he will really come back with his love for me. But if he can't leave his past behind then I'll let him go, let him continue his unfinished love. I don't want to live haunted by my husband's unfinished past love.

The cries that echoed inside the big house continued to recede. He knew crying like anything wouldn't change anything. It turned out that surviving like this also always made him even more sick.

Aruna tried to raise her head and wanted to move into the room, but her vision was blurred as her consciousness began to disappear.
