besides the name of the author.
Fauzan photographed the novel, and
the photo was sent to Amanda via WA. [Manda, is this your writing?]
Fauzan waited anxiously.
[Where did you get that novel?]

the density of Amanda's work, not to mention she has to take care of their children, not to mention,

“What's up?” Ask Amanda, Fauzan wants to talk

“Oh yes whatever.” Amanda was kinda
confused why Fauzan asked him.
“What are two cars for

“As of you only.” In Amanda's heart, does Fauzan need money

All speechless. Fauzan started driving the new car,

Apartments
nisa's property is fully furnished so indeed they bring enough clothes and personal needs. They occupied the same apartment before
they left Jakarta two years ago. So, like Deja vu Citra and Bimo already know where their room is. Once they enter the unit, they
know exactly what they are doing. Bimo was immediately busy arranging his clothes in his room, while Citra was busy
by arranging the toys.
Fauzan and Amanda sat down
both in the middle room.
“This is the car key.” Fauzan
the keys to the new car were to Amanda, who handed her important papers

Amanda just smiled.
“The plan is to buy a house in

Amanda shakes. “It looks like the apartment is just an apartment,
because I prefer the deket-deket here only. But look at the change, please,
just according to budget. I don't want to

Fauzan nodded in understanding. “I

“The car wasn't brought?”

Next
the next day Fauzan came back to the unit. Amanda opened the door and let him in.
“Kok quiet?”
“Bimo again go see-men
length, Citra again naps.”
Fauzan sat in the middle room.
Amanda went straight to the kitchen to make
coffee for Fauzan, before long, he returned to the living room and put down
a cup of coffee in front of Fauzan.
“Si Bimo is impatient

Amanda shakes. “Rest first,

himself next year only.”
“Ya pretty much can break two

Amanda smiled in agreement.
At first both are silent. But looks like Fauzan wants to talk
serious. Amanda is silent waiting for the continuation
what Fauzan wants to say.
“Manda, I wanted to say earlier
I love you, so love you. This
heavy for me, but I have to make this decision.”
Hearing that, Amanda's feelings aren't
tastier. Something bad is going to happen.
Sure enough, Fauzan took out
a document. The title of the document is
‘Akta Cerai’. Amanda was shocked to read it.
“You want to marry again?”
Fauzan shook his head steadily. “I've broken up with Elly.”
Amanda was confused, she showed a face
hernia.
“I just feel so guilty
on you. I have ignored you
too long. The more I make you
oscillating is getting unfair to you.”
Amanda still doesn't understand what it means
Fauzanis.
Fauzan sighed, his eyes starting
teary-eyed “I let you off to happy Manda, someday you will meet
a much better man than me.”
“I don't intend to find a man
other.” Amanda really doesn't understand Fauzan's way of thinking.
“I know that. But there's no one
never know when that soul mate will come. Ye
entitled happy Manda.”
“I don't understand. But it's up to you.” Amanda resigned.
“You should know, I love so much
you.”
“If you love me, why
divorce me?”
“Because I'm not fair the same
you.”
“You're quite sorry Fauzan, aren't you
divorce me.” Amanda was really crying.
Fauzan was crying too. She shook her head.
“It's too easy. I'm going back
hurt you, if I don't know what losing.” means
Amanda understands. But she's still crying. How gini so yes, it turns out a storm inside
his life is not over yet.
Fauzan hugged Amanda. “Then later
you don't find the right guy, you go back to me yeah, I'll
wait you!”
Amanda just shut up, she's still
crying out. Try as slow as possible so that Citra does not wake up.
Fauzan's body language asked for permission
Amanda so she can kiss Amanda's lips. Amanda let it go. Last time. Fauzan hugged her again.
