LOVE WITHOUT SPACE

I DON'T WANT TO BE THE THIRD PERSON

From SEDAYU ~ JOGJAKARTA, YANKTIE congratulates reading this simple story.

Mukti woke up. Both of his parents thought he was too tired to drive. Though because he could not sleep due to reminiscing about the beginning of the approach period until he was close to Vio.

"What time is the plane?" ask Mukti.

"Hour 12.05.

"I'll drop by 10:00. I'll be out for a while. I have business meeting my friends" said Mukti.

"Siiip," said Sonny.

Mukti looking safe first, Sonny has left just he asked to meet with Vio at the Cafe near the airport.

\*\*\*

After Sonny's death, Mukti heads to the cafe where he made an agreement with Vio.

The woman who ruined her life.

Mukti sipped his coffee. Lunch time, but while waiting for Vio, Mukti orders coffee first.

"*I saw Yaka yesterday at the abortion clinic*," Mukti heard her friend's Panji talking to Made in the school cafeteria. Panji did not know at that time Mukti was behind him.

"*Maybe you saw it wrong*" Made tried to dismiss Panji's words.

"*No. And this isn't the first time. This is already the second*," replied Panji.

Hearing that Mukti immediately looked for Vio to talk.

As a man Mukti felt unappreciated. He can't possibly be irresponsible.

"I just don't want you not to make it to your goals." That's why Vio dropped the womb without talking to Mukti.

"I'll wait for you to succeed and come propose to me." Vio again persuaded Mukti who was very angry at having lied to Vio twice.

Mukti remembers that time he felt underestimated by Vio. From that day on, he would not talk to Vio until he graduated high school and went to Paris.

Returning from Paris Mukti tried to find Vio, dear did not meet.

Mukti finds out her aunt Vio has died so she returns to Kediri after finishing college. Then do not know where Vio is in the city until yesterday saw the girl who will be his sister-in-law is Vio.

Mukti's daydream comes to a halt when from afar he sees Vio coming to the cafe and looking for himself.

"Hi," said Vio.

"Hallo," Mukti replied with an indeterminate feeling.

"How are you?"

"good. Please order lunch. My time is not much. I have to go back to Bali. My parents are waiting at the hotel" Mukti said to the point.

"I don't eat" replied Vio.

"You have an ulcer, you don't have it," Mukti calls waitress to record their lunch order.

'*Mukti is still as attentive as ever. Still firm too. I wish I could love him like I love him that I can never reach*, Vio's inner self.

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Why didn't you see me when you got back from Paris?" Vio looked Mukti in the eye.

"still needed? You never appreciated me as a man. You decide everything yourself. Do what else. I mean, I mean nothing to you?" 

"I just love you. How can you say you mean nothing to me?" Vio answered while holding the back of Mukti's hand.

Mukti does not think that Vio said love for him. Ever since they were together, Vio never said love.

"I never loved Mr. Sonny. We have no feelings whatsoever. Wait for me in six months. I'll break up with him."

"We're back together or not, in six months I'll make sure I part with Mr. Sonny."

"How is it possible"

"I have a mission. After this mission is over, my relationship with Mr. Sonny is also over." Vio assures Mukti that in his heart there is never Sonny's name.

Mukti who always could not resist the charm of Vio did not ask what the mission of the girl.

"How do you want to do now?" Ask Mukti.

"Please trust me. My love is only you. I haven't had a boyfriend since you didn't want to talk to me in high school."

"I don't want to have a boyfriend on campus either because I'm sure once you get back to Indonesia, you're going to propose to me."

"I was desperate when you didn't come to propose, and then two months ago Mr. Sonny came to the office. Without any approach he said he wanted to apply. Yes, I accept."

"I promise that even if we're fiancee I'll never sleep with her. Only you've ever done it" Mukti sees the same honesty Vio has told Sonny's story.

"Where did you get my phone number?" Mukti is curious.

"I work in Mr. Sonny's office. I know Imelda's mom. So I asked him for your number" Vio replied.

'*He can get my number immediately*.'

"I don't want to be the third of you. I better give up." Disconnect Mukti.

"You or not, in six months I'll leave Mr. Sonny. So you're not the cause of our breakup later."

"How is it possible? If you were decided yesterday to get married how?"

"There's no way we're getting married. My parents will definitely ask for a fiance first because I do not want to marry Mr. Sonny," replied Vio.

'*If we get married, of course, different story*, ' Vio's inner self.

"Now I ask you to wait. I won't be long. I've been waiting for you five years without getting bored. And when you came back two years ago you weren't looking for me."

"Who said I wasn't looking for you?"

"Two years ago I was looking for you, I knew that your aunt was dead. You college secretary then disappeared without a trace."

"If only yesterday I hadn't participated in Sonny's application, I wouldn't have known where you were either." Mukti Reply.

"Graduated High School I studied secretary D2 in Jakarta. I'm with Aunt Imelda because she's a friend of Aunt Diandra's. Then after graduation I worked in printing." Vio told about his condition after Mukti left for Paris.

"Six months ago Aunt Imelda recommended I work for Abu's company."

"Then two months ago I met Mr. Sonny."

Mukti doesn't believe the girl he's been looking for is actually close to the link. Since graduating High School Vio lives with his own tant.

Imelda is the son of Menur. Mukti Tantenya.

If he had known for a long time he was not frustrated and maybe the one who did the proposal was not Sonny.

"So what do you want next? I certainly don't want to compete with Sonny's mas."

"There was never any competition. You're just in my heart. Believe this. Let me be this year's man I'm fiancee, Mr. Sonny. But we both know who I really am."

"In public I will act like Mr. Sonny's fiancee. Remember, the engagement is also not made massively so no problem about my engagement."

"I'm still yours and always yours" Vio persuaded. Mukti smiles happily finding her old love.

Although he is still heartbroken to remember their two children have been aborted Vio without discussion with himself as the father of the fetus.
