Marriage Should Not be Love

Blue Sweeps

She packed all her belongings and made sure none of hers were left behind.She walked out of her room with a short chin and a smile on her lips, as if he had just won a great war.Entah why he actually felt relieved, like the burden that was carried on his shoulders had been reduced.There is no shame or contempt that he felt.

The lunch hour is over.See the employees walk in the hallway to return to their respective rooms.Lala still be friendly when meeting them in the office hallway.This is what people like about Lala, his hospitality.

Adit tried to block Lala's steps.It seems he did not know the incident that happened between Mama and Lala earlier.

"Where are you going?"

"Rome home maybe," Lala replied casually.

"Why? Are you not feeling well?" Adit looked panicked.

"You see I'm fine." Lala kept stepping.

"Why are you being so weird? What exactly are you?!"

Lala stopped her steps. "I want to talk to you? Can you come out for a minute? I'm waiting in the park."

Maybe I should tell Bang Adit everything, what Mrs Andreas has done to me ... I don't want to ruin your relationship with your Mama, but I can't let your Mama do anything to me and my family either.

Adit stood in his place.He did not understand exactly what was going on.From the different directions Mrs Andreas appeared with Denise.They immediately approached Adit.

"Honey add .. Where have you been? We've been looking for you since, look at Denise coming home from London" Mrs Andreas said.

"Hi Adit .." said Denise.

Adit only glanced at the girl for a while then left without saying a word to them.

"Adit .." call Mrs Andreas.But Adit keeps passing.He doesn't pay attention to his Mama.

"Prophey is Honey ... Adit is like that.You also know for yourself, right?" madame Andreas said to Denise.

Denise nodded.

"Ma... What exactly is the relationship of the girl who was with Adit? Lala, who did you introduce me to?" ask Denise.

"She's a nobody.Have ..don't think about what you saw earlier.The girl must be trying to tease Adit."

"Mama should not have to fire him, if indeed the girl tried to tease Adit enough to be given a warning only.Didn't Mama also have introduced me to him as Adit's fiancee? surely he wouldn't dare to mess around" Denise replied.

"Don't underestimate that, dear ... You know that, right? people can do anything to get what they want," replied Mrs Andreas.

These two men walked towards Adit's room.But when Adit arrived there was not in his room.

"Where else is he?!" muttered Mrs Andreas held back her anger.Had since then she and Denise surrounded this office to look for Adit.

Adit set foot quickly to the city park.The distance of the city park and Plaza Z is quite close, can be reached by foot.Until there Adit circulates his view looking for Lala. Adit found Lala sitting by the pool.His view was fixed on the white lotus that filled the pool in front of him.Adit approached him and sat beside Lala.

Lala turned her head to realize that someone was sitting next to her.She looked back at the pool after finding out who was next to her at the moment.

"Why you?" ask Adit flat.

"Look Bang .. The lotus flower is beautiful." Lala looks amazed. "I rarely sit here, I usually sit there and look at the fountain." Lala spoke as her hands busily pointed at what she meant.

Adit only noticed the girl beside him talking.He felt this girl was not the girl he usually knew.

Lala fell silent.The look of her face changed.

Should I tell you everything? He would be very angry with his mother.

"Please promise me you won't be angry!" lala.

"I can't promise," Adit replies casually.He tries to tease Lala.

Lala turned her head, "Bang .. promise me first!" Lala pleads.

"No, I can't promise.You know I'd be pissed if there was anything about you."

"If that's why I don't want to talk," Lala replied that she didn't want to lose.

"Hey ... Why is that so?! All right, I promise I won't get mad." Why do you always make me nervous? You'd be finished if we were just the two of us here.

"From tomorrow I don't work at Plaza Z anymore.Your mama has laid off me." Lala started talking.

"What did you say? That's impossible!" Adit was surprised.

"But that's what happened." Lala sees Adit starting to get emotional.He grabbed her hand. "You promised not to be angry" said Lala slowly while looking into Adit's eyes.He knows this way can relieve Adit's anger.

"Is it because Denise saw us?" ask Adit.

"Maybe" Lala replied."You should know Bang... Your mother has twice met me and warned me to stay away from you.She also met the Father and said the same thing, that's why you had a heart attack" he continued.

Lala still clasped Adit's hand, preventing him from getting angry.Adit was very surprised to hear all this.I guess he did not want to believe what Lala said.But Adit really knows his Mama, he knows Mama is able to do it all.

"I'm sorry .. I'm sorry ..." Those are the only words that came out of Adit's mouth.

"Why apologize? It's not your fault" said Lala, "Look at me. I'm fine.Bapak is also healthy, later in the afternoon you can go home." Lala tries to reduce Adit's guilt because this is not her fault.

"Now can you understand why we should end our relationship? We both know, your Mama can do even further.I can stand with everything she did to me.But I can not accept if something happens to the same Father again, or maybe my other family."

"But I can't.I can't get away from you.Today you're my life." Adit looks desperate.

"Don't be selfish Bang. If you want to see me okay, then stay away from me.And remember, don't be mad at your Mama.If you get angry at her then she will vent it to me.Please promise me!"

Adit turned his face away.He was very ashamed of what his mother had done to Lala.Moreover he also could not let Lala see him shed tears.

"Hey. You're a bad old boy! Don't cry." Lala's voice trembled.She tried to smile but tears also dripped on her cheeks.Lala grabbed Adit's face, making them look at each other.Small hands rubbed Adit's cheeks slowly, wiping away the tears that wet her.

"It's not easy for me either.How many times I wish to be reunited with you long ago, when my heart doesn't belong to anyone else.But this is our path."

Adit's hand also wiped the tears Lala continues to drip.Lala hugged Adit tightly.This moment felt blue for them.

"I'm sorry ..I'm sorry I hurt you.I'm sorry I had to end all this" said Lala. Moments later he let go of his embrace, and again looked at Adit's face.

"Smiling is Bang .. This may be the last time I see you smile.We both know, you can only smile with me," ledek Lala still with her cry.

Adit smiled bitterly.Then Lala kissed Adit right at the corner of her lips, making Adit want to reach Lala's lips entirely with her lips.But Lala immediately pulled her lips back.

"Don't cry big guy !" lala said as she stepped away from Adit.
