HALF MY SOUL
TRAGEDIES



Viera was looking down and crying in her room. Of course there was William next to him who was trying to calm him down.


"You agreed to the match?" said Viera brick-styled.


"Of course not, honey. I may have betrayed you. You know I love you."


"But what is the evidence now? You'll get engaged soon and when you graduate, you'll get married. Leaving me. Maybe I should just follow Mama to her hometown."


Mama Viera has returned to her hometown. It is all on the advice of doctors who ask that patients get a calm atmosphere and clean air. It just so happened that his hometown was like that and he still had a little sister there who could take care of him.


"No! No, honey. Hear me. I will always be yours, and so will you, will always be mine. Trust me, I will definitely cancel this match. It's just that I need time for that."


William clasped Viera's hand and stroked her, "Trust me, only you will be my wife."


Viera stared fixedly into William's eyes. Then William brought his face closer to Viera's face and kissed her gently. Viera was finally washed away and as usual, a heat struggle occurred between the two, in Viera's room.

King began to renovate 2 pieces of shophouses 3 floors that he will make as his office. He opened a company engaged in import exports.


"I want the room here to be rather large, and put the meeting room next to it," king told the contractor working on the renovation project while pointing to a picture held by the middle-aged man.


"good. Then, what would you like the meeting room to use glass?"


"Yes, I agree. Like this, right?" point King at one of the pictures.


"Yes right."


"Alright, the rest do as shown in the picture, only this 2nd floor is all I want a little change" said King.


"Yes, don't forget for this 2nd floor, every room is made soundproof" King continued.


"Ready."


King looked at the window, staring at the building across the street, right in front of the shophouse he was going to make an office in. He smiled to himself, laughing that his heart was still unable to turn away.


He accidentally bought a shophouse right in front of Ben's clinic. When he returned to Jakarta, King took the time to go to Ben's clinic. He just stood in front of a Psychiatry clinic with the words Doctor Frank Benjamin.


What possessed his heart and mind until he did that. Now he gazes at Ben's clinic, hoping he can see Hanna there. Yes, you can only see it. But, he saw another scene, Ben came out along with a nurse dressed, even they looked so very close. King could see how Ben was embracing the woman's waist.


"Yail!!! is he playing behind Hanna?" king was upset. He also clenched his hands.


King keeps watching Ben open the door for the woman and then drives the car away until it is not seen.


"Ahh, why should I care about him? Perhaps this is karma for what he did to me first," King finally left the place and drove towards his residence.

"Dad!! I don't want to!" william said up.


"Your engagement is only 1 week away. Hurry up and meet Kimberly and take her to your Mommy acquaintance's boutique."


"But Dad, I have an appointment today."


"Promise. More important which? your future fiancee or your promise?"


William grunted in annoyance. She did not expect Kimberly to accept the proposal.


"Or was he deliberately trying to upset me?" inner William.


William changed his clothes, then he grabbed the car keys and wallet, and his cell phone. He walked to the next house. He still has to carry out his Daddy's orders or he will face problems, yes.


"William."


"Om ..., does Kimberly exist?"


"Wil wants Kimberly to find a dress for the engagement next week, Om," William said.


"Sit down, call Kimberly first."


William looked around, looking at the house that used to be a place to play, eat, and even stay overnight. He longed for that time, when Kimberly became his best friend, a friend of his sense of brother.


Before long, Kimberly gets off. He wore a knee-length shirt and had his hair draped. He looked at William and smiled. For a moment William looked at it. Honestly, he never saw Kimberly in such clothes. William has never paid too much attention to Kimberly. 3 years is quite a lot to turn her into a beautiful and mature woman.


"I'm ready, Wil. Let's go!" take Kimberly.


Kimberly was ready when Alan called her, of course it was because Elena, Mommy William, had called Kimberly and told her to prepare because William would ask her to find a dress.


"Oh, yes."


Because their house was next to each other, William returned to his house quickly and immediately pulled out his car.


Kimberly got into the seat next to the steering wheel after William's car stopped in front of the fence.


In the car, they were still standing. William focused on driving, while Kimberly looked out the window. Kimberly glanced at William, the corner of her eyes still watching William. Kimberly could see that William was focused on driving, but like his soul wasn't there. His view is empty.


Kimberly looked ahead, she immediately shouted towards William.


"Wil, stopp!!!"


Kimberly's scream was like waking William up from his sleep, he immediately stepped on the brakes of his car. Fortunately, the distance of William's car with the car in the back is quite far, so there was no collision.


William looked ahead, he realized that in front of him was a middle-aged woman crossing with a small child. William sighed deeply, touching his forehead at the wheel and hugging it.


"You're okay?" ask Kimberly while stroking William's back.


William took his breath back and threw it away slowly. He pulled his car over because the horn of the back car had started to sound.


"Thanks to Kim. If you hadn't yelled at me, maybe I would have been ..."


"Already, don't keep in mind anymore, the important thing is that it didn't happen," Kimberly patted William on the back of the hand to calm him down.


William drove back to his Mommy's friend's boutique. Once there, William asks Kimberly to get off first, while he parks his vehicle.


Kimberly went inside the boutique,


"Welcome, miss. Is there anything we can help you with?" ask one of the shopkeepers.


"I'm looking for a party dress."


"Ooo, if I may know the details, for what party and event is held indoor or outdoor?"


Just as Kimberly was about to reply, William walked in and looked directly at the shopkeeper, "I'm looking for Aunty Anne."


"The lady's upstairs, but there's a guest. Please wait a moment, please sit here first. I'll tell the lady. Oiya, if I may know with whom?"


"William, son of Elena Smith."


"Well, for a second" the guard reached for the phone at his reception desk, then contacted Anne's room, the boutique owner.


The guard returned, "Mrs Anne asked you to go straight up to her room, sir."


"Come on!" william told Kimberly. Since the tragedy that almost happened, William is not too stiff on him, although there is still no smile etched on his face.


Kimberly and William climb upstairs, but just as they're about to step foot in, they're reunited with someone,


"You?!"
