Love That Pain

Old friend

After taking a shower and getting dressed, Alex went straight into his study. The man is now at home alone, because how much Chelsea is at the house of his parents. After their altercation at Vika and Betrand's wedding that night, Alex and Chelsea haven't spoken to each other.

Chelsea did not deliberately want to avoid Alex, but now Kania is in need of help Chelsea. The woman wanted to take Alex to her home, but Alex refused, citing the many jobs she had to do during Betrand's time off. In fact, that's just the reason Alex, because at home in-laws will definitely only discuss about children. In addition, Chelsea and Alex communication is also tenuous.

Alex leaned back in his chair, he looked at the ceiling of his study, “usually when this holiday, me and Chelsea always go for a walk, but now, why does everything become like this?”

“Am I too jealous? I know between Chelsea and Zaki there is no relationship. But Zaki still harbors his feelings for Chelsea. If Chelsea knew the truth about me, is it possible that she would come back with Zaki and leave me?” Alex scooped his face riled, “I need an impingement to clear all my problems this, but what should I do, I can't go drinking anymore.”

Alex then moved from his seat, the man remembered his one best friend whom he had not seen for a long time. Alex also intends to meet his best friend, he then came out of his study, “what he still remembers me yes, it has been almost 3 years I did not meet him. He was my old comrade-in-arms.”

Alex drove his car at high speed, because his best friend's house was not close, but he lived in Semarang City, where Alex demanded knowledge while sitting in high school. On the way to his best friend's house, Alex stops at the center of the souvenir, he can't possibly come empty-handed.

After a long and very tiring journey, Alex finally arrived at his destination. Alex stopped his car right in the yard of a simple house, after which Alex got out of the car while carrying two paper bags containing the food he had bought.

Alex knocked on the door of the house, not long after that door was open. A beautiful woman came out from behind that door.

“Hai,” greet Alex with a smile.

“Alex!” exclaim the woman was surprised, “sayang, come here, there is Alex here!” again calling someone.

“You haven't changed huh, always just yelling, make my ears hurt!”

The woman smiled, “I think you've forgotten this place,” he said.

“Which I may have forgotten, it was in this place that I spent my youth. Aren't you going to tell me to come in?”

“Sorry..sorry, come on in.” The woman then went inside the house and was followed by Alex, “sit down, I called the fool first,”.

Alex laughs, “tega you yes, husband time alone you call the fool.”

“You know very well how your friend's behavior, until now he has never changed, his work only makes me high blood!” the woman took her foot off Alex.

Not long after, the woman returned with a man and a 1-year-old child.

“I thought you were dead,” said the man then sat on the sofa in front of Alex.

“If I were dead, I wouldn't be in front of you right now.” Alex looked at a little boy sitting on the lap of his best friend, “that's your son?” tanyanya.

The man rubbed the top of his son's head, “ya..after a long wait, we finally blessed a child.”.

“What do you mean? are you guys in trouble?”

“I'm the one with the problem, not Hera. I was almost desperate, two years I struggled but there was absolutely no result. I even told Hera to divorce me, and marry another man. But, Hera continued to support me, until finally she became pregnant, and was born my little hero,” he added while peeping the top of his son's head.

“Jo, actually what you are experiencing is also what I am experiencing at this time,” I am Alex, who suddenly made Hera and Josep round his eyes, “doctor diagnosed me barren,” he added.

“Lex, you are serious!” Josep still does not believe his best friend will experience something similar to him.

“Hem..and that really frustrates me.”

“Lex, since when did you get married, why didn't you tell us?” Hera looked at Alex.

Alex steered a horse, “sorry, after all my marriage is just simple, and only the family is present.” The man then took the paper bag beside him, “sorry, this is all I brought for you,” he said while giving the paper bag to Hera.

“You don't need to bring anything.” Hera then took the paper bag, “if there is more is also okay,” he added.

“Basic! Never changed you.” Alex then looked at the boy in Josep's pocket, “can I hold him?” tanyanya.

Josep then looked at his son, “sayang, knowin, it's a friend of Dad, his name is Om Alex. Does Rino want to play with Alex? Om Alex has a lot of toys,” he said and suddenly made Alex round his eyes. Not that his mother, his father is the same as his mother, Alex thought in his heart.

“Name Rino yes.” Alex then stood up, after that he crouched in front of Josep, “Rino dear, want to maen the same Om Alex, later Om Alex will buy a lot of toys for Rino,” rayunya.

Rino looked at his father, after which he looked back at Alex, the little boy then nodded his head.

“Jo, Her, do you teach your children to matre like you?” ledek Alex while taking Rino from his father's lap.

“We don't matre know, but we just make use of what's in sight, that's all. If you don't offer something to us, we won't ask for it either. Of all our friends, only you were born from a rich family,” said Hera and stepped her feet away from the room, he intends to make a drink and put the food that Alex bought into the jar and also the plate.

Alex kissed both cheeks of the puffer Rino, “Jo, will I also be able to have a child like you?”

“Originally you try, then everything will be facilitated by The Above.”

“From the first time you were like that, did not I ever warn you, one day you will definitely get a strong reprimand from your actions.” Hera who just came along to comment, “makanya do not like to play dipping into all holes, so now you feel the consequences,” he said. The woman placed a tray of drinks and snacks on the table, after which she sat down next to her husband.

Josep laughed at what his wife said, “it's a tea bag, play dipping aja,” he said while continuing to laugh.

“Ya...who knows that Alex is indeed like a tea bag, I don't know how many women he tried, from SMA until now, how many years has it been?” Hera doesn't really like the nature of her best friend, but she can't interfere too deeply either, because it's Alex's personal business.

“I feel sorry for your wife, does she know your nature that often changes partners?” tanyanya.

Nod the head of Alex, making both Josep and Hera's eyes rounded instantly, “wah...would your wife accept all your past?” ask Hera not to believe it.

“If you knew all about the story of me and my wife, maybe you would curse me not to have children for the rest of my life,” said Alex then sat his body on the sofa while holding Rino.

“I used to only use Chelsea to take revenge on her brother, I even dumped her after taking away her chastity. I also insulted her and also her brother,” I'm Alex.

“Crazy you! I didn't expect you to be such a jerk!” exclaim Hera growled.

“Lex, maybe what you are experiencing right now is indeed the karma that you deserve!” exclaimed Josep who was also very furious with the behavior of his best friend.

“I know, that's why I get a punishment like this now. But, I've changed, to get Chelsea again, I've changed all my bad qualities. I'm not the old Alex anymore, now that me and Chelsea are back together, we're happy with our marriage, but only one that we don't have yet.” Alex then kissed the cheek of a bully Rino, “a child. Chelsea really want to have children, but I haven't been able to give that for him,” he said sadly.

“What does your wife know, if you are barren?” asked Hera while staring at Alex's current state.

For Hera, although Alex is very bad in nature, but he is very royal with his friends. Even Alex was the one who paid Hera's tuition, when she had absolutely no money to pay for her school fees.

Alex shook his head, “I purposely hid this from him, because I was scared. I'm afraid Chelsea will leave me if she knows I'll never be able to get her pregnant.”

Josep and Hera looked at each other, Hera then moved from her seat and took Rino from Alex's lap, “I will leave you two,” she said then stepped her legs away.

“Lex, if you want, you can do therapy where I used to do therapy, but it also takes a long time.”

Alex shook his head, “thank you, but if I do therapy here, then I won't be able to meet Chelsea. I also can't leave my job.”

“You just talk to your wife first, who knows she can accept your condition.”

Alex shook his head again, “how could I do that, I was afraid of losing him again, just once I lost him, and I didn't want to until it happened again.”

“Your stubbornness from the first can never be lost, it is up to you, I can not help your problem it. that's the only solution I can give,” said Josep gave up, said, his best friend was very stubborn from the first time.

“I'm here, because I remember you guys, we haven't seen each other in a long time. Do you want to come with me, I'll introduce you to my wife? She is very pretty, even prettier than Mona.”

“It turns out you still remember with your ex-boyfriend it was yes. Wasn't he also the one who took away your first experience, and made you into a jerk. Because he betrayed you with your own best friend.”

Alex smiled, “you remember that, I forgot. It turns out betrayed someone can change someone's attitude yes,” he said.

“Not everyone is like that, but you already love to die with Mona, so the heartache you feel is ingrained.”

Alex leaned her body on the sofa, “Mona, how is she doing now? Is she married to her chosen man?”

“Which I heard, she is pregnant out of wedlock, but her boyfriend does not want to be responsible.”

Alex laughed, “so he also received karma just like me huh, it was indeed worth him. I have no regrets because he betrayed me, because I was the first to take away his chastity,”.

Josep just shook his head, his best friend was crazy, he thought.

“Lex, you seriously want to take me to your house?” asked Josep in a serious tone.

“Why? do you really want to come to my house?”

“Actually I would love to take Hera for a walk. As long as we were married, I had never taken her for a walk out of town, if you don't mind, would I stay at your house for a few days? I want to take Hera around Jakarta.”

Alex smiled, he then nodded his head, “then you pack now, now I will take you, Hera and Rino to Jakarta. Chelsea would be happy to meet you guys,” he said.

Josep nodded his head, “thank you, you have always been an angel to me and Hera,”.

“You are my best friend, you know who Alex used to be,” he said with a smile.
