Supposedly, today is a beautiful day for couples in general. Not with Andrew. This marriage was like swallowing a very bitter medicine for him.
On the left right the family and relatives watched Andrew and Vivian make a sacred promise. The bride cries haru. The family and guests were delighted.
The couple walked to meet the guests. It was indeed a smile that was seen on Andrew's face, but not in his heart.
"Congratulations! You guys are a good couple." a guest shook Andrew's hand.
"Thank you." replied Andrew.
Vivian holds Andrew's hand. As if not for a second. For him, Andrew exceeded his love. Andrew is his life.

The iceberg man was unable to close his eyes, his heart was agitated. His mind was glaring somewhere. It was early morning.
"I guess I can keep cheering from you. It turns out my heart is broken. I'll see you soon." he said softly.
He took a suitcase and put some clothes in it. The plane ticket will be booked for tomorrow morning flight.
"Sister, all the pictures I've emailed. Some days I'll be out of town." text message sent to his boss.
"Ok, happy holiday Tom! For years you have worked too hard. Holidays are perfect for you." text a reply from Tiza Tom's boss.
"Thank you, brother." she replied.
The man was still cool with his cell phone. A name was written there. He typed in a message, not long before it was wiped out. Always like that a few times.
"Sall" finally one short text message was sent to a girl.
"Hi Tom." text message the answer from the girl he received.
Sally hasn't slept either. Or even wake up because of text messages from him. Finally discontinued resume text message.
He hugged both knees.
***
Tonight my throat feels dry. I woke up and I took a glass of water and drank it.
My phone's shaking. There's a new text message there. When I saw it was from Tom. The message is very short, even my name is incomplete.
"Hi Tom." I answered the text.
I waited a while and there was no answer. I'm still sleepy, I put the phone back in its place.
Not long after I continued my sleep.
***
This afternoon I received a text message from Tom. He reported that he was in Contento.
"Suddenly Tom? Oh, last night you sent a text message to let me know, huh?" ask me over the phone.
"Willfully so, let's surprise hahha." Tom replied followed by a laugh.
"Keep if it's here, you had time to meet? If I want to buy it." I said.
"Yes, the time has come a long way not to see my best friend." replied Tom.
"Tom.. But, I'll take Dean?" my many.
"Deans? You mean Dean's our schoolmate? Is he here?" tom asked with a voice that changed not as cheerfully as before.
"Yes, he's here Tom. How's it?" I said.
"Alright." replied Tom resignedly.
"Ok, I'll see you in the afternoon!" I said.
"Yes, I'll see you in the afternoon" Tom replied, ending our conversation.
"Dean, Tom is here. We'll have dinner with him! You haven't seen him in a long time, have you?" text message to Dean.
"Ok, I'll pick you up." replied Dean.
***
Dean and I have been waiting at the diner for more than 30 minutes. There was no sign of Tom's presence.
Did he lie in Contento? What is the reason he lied? His phone is also inactive.
The drink we ordered is almost gone.
"We'll eat first, baby. You'll be sick." Dean called the waiter to order food.
"Ok." I answered uninspired.
I tried calling back. Still inactive too. Tom's.. Tom. You're acting mysterious again.
Until we finished eating, Tom didn't come either. Dean and I decided to go home.
***
6 Hours past 20 minutes, means 10 minutes earlier than the time Tom and Sally agreed. Tom was already sitting at the diner that Sally said. A glass of drink was half gone.
Tom's gaze was fixed on the entrance of the restaurant.25 minutes later, a pair of men and women he knew were there.
The pair of humans looked very familiar, even more so. Their hands are tightly intertwined. Sometimes the man stroked the woman's hair.
Tom felt a great pain in his chest. Especially seeing the couple's friendly gaze.
A piece of money on the table where he was. Got his coat, then infiltrated out among the guests.
He had to leave that room immediately. Again he was late. She would not be strong to face her puja girl affectionately with the other man before her.
A taxi was stopped.
"Sir, to the smurk hotel!" the door to the taxi driver.
Turn off his cell phone. He stared out the car window. It seemed, his decision to this city was the wrong one.
The girl belongs to someone else. The one who always bothers the girl whom he protects with all his heart.
Apparently, his patience of waiting did not pay off. Sally never loved him as a man.
After arriving at the hotel, he checked out.
"Mba, I'd like to check out from room 305" he said on the reservation.
"Good Sir. Wait a minute." replied the staff on duty.
"It's clear all. We look forward to returning to our hotel. Thank you." said the reservation staff.
"Ok, thank you!" answer Tom.
As if nature understood his pain. It rained as he exited the hotel.
By taxi Tom headed to the airport to return to his town.
"Should I hide forever from you Sally!" tom said in his heart.
By looking out there again. Tom finally made his foot into the boarding room.
