It was not as easy as turning the palm. Xhena was already feeling hurt and neglected. Although Joe has apologized repeatedly does not necessarily make his heart melt and forgive him just like that. Xhena started to act indifferent. Joe's getting confused not knowing how to. Want to tell Grego and Eva but he doubts whether it is the right way or even will aggravate the situation. But Joe also could not stand having to linger in this kind of miserable state.
Wasn't it from the beginning of this marriage Joe was expecting happiness. But is happiness like this? There is even hatred. Joe who began to feel frustrated feeling unable to survive like this chose to ask for help to Via. It feels heavy on its own. And also he did not want to always trouble Grego and Eva with the problems he faced.
Joe also called the Via number which fortunately is still stored on his phone. The first ring then the second ring and the third ring just heard the answer from across.
" Yes hello! sapa Via's.
" Hello Via! reply Joe.
" This is Joe? ask Via.
" Yes, it's Joe!
" Ohh. How's Joe doing. Tumben you called me! the slightly astonished Via asked as Joe suddenly contacted him.
" I'm sorry, if I might bother you. Are you busy again? Joe sounded bad at delivering his point.
" no. I'm not busy anymore.!
" I want to talk to you about something. Do you have time? ask Joe without further ado. Although Via felt a little strange with Joe's request but his little heart seemed reluctant to refuse him.
" Okay all right. Where we meet, I'll go straight there! answer Via assented.
" Thank you Vi. I'll send you the address. I'll see you around!
" okay. See you soon.! Via hung up. Joe sent me the address where they met.
Not until 1 hour later, Via had already arrived at the address that Joe had sent him. Joe was waiting for him there. A cafe that Joe usually visits if he wants to enjoy his solitude while tasting his favorite bitter coffee.
" Hi Joe! greet Via after just arriving and see Joe sitting alone. Joe stood up and welcomed Via.
" Hey Vi, let's have a seat! Joe greeted Via with a warm and gentle demeanor. Gives comfort to Via.
" What do you want to order Vi? ask Joe.
" What aye! greet Via.
Joe called waitress and ordered two glasses of cappucino and a few snacks.
" What's up Joe? Tumben tumbenan you want to invite me to meet.! asked Via out of curiosity with Joe's sudden attitude.
" I need a chatter buddy. And I don't know who to talk to? I only remembered you because of that I tried to contact you! joe was honest.
" What problem makes you all that? But by the way congratulations on your wedding. Last party I didn't even get to congratulate you! via.
" Thank you. I was confused where to start! Joe looks uninspired.
" What's the problem? It seems so heavy that you don't seem excited.! guess Via.
" It's actually our marriage! Joe is trying to be more open.
" What happened to your marriage? Via became more curious.
" Sorry yes Joe, but I will answer it in my own mind. If I had been in your wife's position, I might have acted as well. How could I possibly be calm if my husband paid more attention to others than his wife. It should be a priority that your wife is not someone else even if it is your own family.! said Via quite long.
Hearing Via's words, Joe felt even more guilty. Because indeed his attitude all this time must have hurt his wife. As a woman, though she looks strong but her heart is fragile.
" I was wrong, inattentive and did not understand his heart. But I've apologized many times, he won't forgive me! sorry Joe.
" What do Grego and Eva think about this? ask Via.
" I haven't told them. I've been troubling them too much. So I'm trying not to bother them for a while! said Joe.
" But you have to tell me, after all they're part of your family! However, if they know you are in trouble and they cannot help, they will be very disappointed.! Advice Via.
Joe was silent, bowed in confusion. He thought after this marriage his life would be happier. His suffering will first end. But it was not as beautiful as he had imagined.
" Why does this suffering always end? What exams do I have to pass this time?
Via doesn't know what to say anymore. Remembering their old stories that also hurt. And mostly by himself. Although now Via has changed still bad stigma about him is still inherent in him. He is just more mature and wise now. Being able to be more calm when facing a problem.
And now Joe who has the biggest influence in his life is experiencing life problems that are not complicated but also not easy. He was confused about what kind of advice or advice to give, because if he is faced with this problem he is not necessarily able to overcome it.
Meanwhile, Grego and Eva who were sitting together at the dinner table also told each other.
" Dear, these few days since the day we failed to go on vacation, Joe never came to our house again. What's up, huh? For several days Grego did notice that Joe did not show up again. I don't know what's going on, though,
" Yes, I have also been called to his number but not appointed. Is there a big problem, huh? Eva asked worriedly.
" I hope not. Everything must be fine! grego said to calm his heart and mind and his wife.
"But I still haven't calmed down. I'll call Joe again. If necessary, I will visit their homes. Whatever happens my heart will calm down if I see it directly and hear from them myself! said Eva.
" What's up, Mother? Um Joe why? asked Gio who suddenly appeared.
" Mom and Dad don't know either. Your Joe has no news at all since a few days ago. That's why Father and Mother are a little worried! answer Eva.
" Is it necessary if Gio goes to Om Joe's house and sees the situation there? gio's Proposal.
" Not baby. Not necessary. If anything happens, Joe will be sad! Eva reminded.
" You don't have to think too much about Om Joe's problems. Later Daddy and Mommy will try to help your Om! grego.
" Okay, Mother. Then Gio will take his leave first. Gio has a friend's appointment! pamit Joe's.
" Where's your sister Gia? ask Eva.
" It looks like it's in Bund's room, it hasn't been out since. It's in the room! answer Gio.
"All right then. Be careful, baby! eva said attentively.
" Okay Bund. Gio pamit's. Dad, bye Mother.! Gio was too pampered. And now there are Grego and Eva.
