Love And Wounds

Farewell

At exactly 04.00 pm, Aston was already seen inside the house. Even Aunt Ijah was astonished because her master had come home earlier than usual. He had guessed because he might want to meet faster with the woman who was inside this house.

Aunty smiled to herself to see her master more cheerful, her face always looks fluffy after the existence of Alexa in the house. "Master, the food is ready. All of this is handmade by Miss Alexa" said Bibi on Aston who just came down from the top floor. Nearby is Lexa in the living room watching a television show. He heard the words of the aunt that embarrassed him. "Ah, what the hell Bik, no really. I'm just helping Auntie in the kitchen!"

"Here and there let's eat together," Aunt Ijah asked them. Lexa also invites Aunt Ijah to eat together at one table.

All greedy, because it tastes different from the usual aunt Ijah's cuisine. "Wih, steady true taste. So I want to add."

After dinner Aston alluded to their relationship. "Lexa, how, have you thought carefully about your future? Can't you believe I love you? Think carefully about your gestational age that increases every day. What do people say about you?"

Aston said when Aunt Ijah cleaned the dirty dishes, took them to the kitchen. Lexa fell silent, she wasn't ready for all this. 'Has this become the way for me? Married to Aston? This man I don't love at all? But, maybe love will come slowly after I live with her.'

Lexa is still thinking about Aston's words. Lexa tries to learn a little about her past. He wanted to hear himself from Aston's mouth, if what Aunt said was true. "Give me some Aston time, oh yeah. I'd like to ask. Are you really Miller? The man who always gets the bad treatment of child students from the university Suka Maju?"

Aston nodded his head. He smiled blandly. He stared at Lexa, who was close to him. Lexa's a little away. "Yes Lexa, I'm Miller. I'm the little guy who always gets the bully of that one college. And I'm still trying to survive because of you. You were there when I needed help. Thank you for your kindness first. And one thing I always remember, you once said if you liked me, I could somehow interpret love as sincere, but in fact, you're Sean's lover."

The deg!

Alexa was surprised to find the answer from Aston just now. He did not think, if the man who used to be in the word cupu now had changed completely. He even remembers what he said that he liked it.

"I'm sorry Aston, I didn't intend to say that, I just want you to move forward, it's just a word of encouragement for you, so you don't take it lightly. But in fact, before graduation, you left university without saying goodbye to me, since then I have not heard from you again," Lexa said, nostalgic.

Aston was not saddened by the words of the woman beside him. Because now he is by her side. And maybe soon he'll be his wife. But on top of a big lie that he and Dania created.

"Aston, why are you quiet? You're angry, aren't you? Again I'm sorry," said Lexa sadly. He rubbed the back of Aston's hand that was on the dining table.

The man who had a small mole on the chin was smiling faintly. "I'm not angry, you don't deserve to be angry, you were a woman I knew well. Forever you'll be a good woman" said Aston.

That night Lexa could not calm down, thinking between his words that he had to fulfill, and the question of Aston to ask him. During these few days, Sena had not given him any news either. He thinks the man might have been happy with Dania and forgotten about her.

"Then what else am I waiting for, Sean? Wasn't it obvious that he had rebuked me blatantly. He no longer has love for me. Why else would I wait for him? Come on Lexa, wake up. Right now there's an Aston next to you, he'll take care of you, before this big pregnancy, marry an Aston!" tell it to yourself.

That night, Aston took Lexa to dinner, at an expensive and romantic restaurant. Lexa had already said before that she would accept Aston as her husband. Therefore Aston wants to capture the night of the day with candle light dinner.

"Is this not excessive, Aston?" lexa asked, seeing a lot of food in front of her.

Aston shook his head. He told Lexa to immediately enjoy the dish that the waitress had served. "Come, let's eat first, while it's warm." Lexa nodded as well.

While bribing the rice, which was already mixed with processed dishes from shrimp, suddenly something hard hit his teeth. He stopped the spoon that was about to be devoured. And find out what makes it uncomfortable. Lexa pulled the spoon out, and saw a white one-eyed ring.

Lexa smiled and looked at Aston. "the ring? You're the one who fucked this up? If the ring gets swallowed by me how? Danger you!"

"I'm sorry, I can't be romantic. I'm just trying to be a romantic guy, like most guys," Aston replied.

"There's no need to be someone else Aston, be yourself."

"I'm wearing it!" aston Pinta.

Lexa refused. "But this hasn't been washed yet, if my finger is in the ant sheath how is it?"

Aston resigned, because women are always right. "Ah, I'm always wrong in your eyes, Lexa."

****

As Sean's life deteriorates, each night is spent drinking. And he rarely even came home. The company can still be handled by Andrea.

As night falls, Andrea is unable to sleep, she imagines the life of her son which she herself cannot prevent. "Dania, what are you planning to do for Sean's change? Really Mama is very worried about her situation now, mama is afraid her life is made to ruin itself. Mama wants Sean back to the way he used to be. Dania, please make Sean change!"

"Yes, Ma. I'll try, he's in the discotheque again. Dania's gonna take him home with the driver." The woman, who has been locked up in her room for a few days, will act immediately for her husband's sake.

That night, he rushes to where the property owners spend their money at the bar table. By sipping a few bottles of high alcohol content. He sorted out some people who had gone mad, lost consciousness, spoke and behaved inappropriately in that location. It was only when his eyes found Sean sitting on the couch with two women next to him.
