MARRIED
Beautiful Memories
As time goes on, Julia goes through her days with a sense of anxiety. He was calmly waiting for what Ben would do. But Ben like to stay away from Julia, even messages or calls are not received by Julia.
Though Julia really hopes Ben immediately act and say what he means to have taken a photo of his togetherness with Theo.
And so far, it seems Karel doesn't know about the photos.
This morning, Julia helped Karel prepare the items to be brought on duty out of town.
"Karel, are you sure you're leaving? Your face looks pale. If you are sick do not force yourself, first allow yourself to rest a day." Julia expressed her concern because in the days since Karel returned home from duty before, Karel looks weak and does not have an appetite.
"I'm okay, baby. You take it easy, maybe I'm doing too much work."
"But you're now like no appetite. Is my cooking bad?"
"It feels so good, baby. But you know that my stomach is relapsing again. Hopefully after this assignment, I'll be back to what I was. Always spend the food at home" Karel smiled. She didn't want Julia to worry about her.
"But ... "
"There you go to work, it's too late. Today there is an important event." Karel wants to end his conversation with Julia, he is afraid that Julia will suspect if she is sick.
Julia took her bag, put in her phone and wallet. Today is indeed an important event in the office, the anniversary of his office is filled with various events.
He must arrive before the opening ceremony starts. Actually Julia was sad because she could not always take Karel away, but how else? He has a responsibility to carry out.
"Karel, I'm sorry I couldn't take you to the airport" Julia said with a sad face.
"Oh, no problem. There's a car for the invitation. It might be another hour" said Karel to calm Julia.
"All right, I'm leaving first, baby."
"Yes, be careful on the road. I pray today's event is a success yes" said Karel kissing Julia's cheek.
"You're careful too, honey. If you get there do not forget to tell ya and often videocall yes," said Julia while kissing Karel's hand.
He always kissed Karel's hand before he left
Julia walked out of the house. When he wanted to get into the car, he saw Karel standing on the terrace with his trademark smile. His hands were waving as a sign of farewell.
Julia looked at Karel's face, for some reason her heart rippled. Her feelings said that this was the last time she saw Karel smile at her.
Julia lowered her head and closed her eyes, dispelling the sudden feeling of unease within her chest.
Why does my heart suddenly feel bad like this?
Julia let out a rough breath, expelling her unpleasant feelings. He looked at Karel, smiled back and waved his hand.
Julia threw away her thoughts about Karel. He has to concentrate on the task of the event today, because Julia is the one in charge.
The event was opened by an important official who will be present. Continued with a bazaar filled with the provision of assistance in the form of basic food, free treatment and performing arts until night. Bazar held for 2 days.
Julia drove her car to the office because the event was held in the office yard. When she arrived, Julia quickly checked to make the event run smoothly.
Meanwhile, after taking Julia away, Karel sat on the terrace chair. He endured the pain in his head. His eyes closed and felt his head throbbing violently.
After her illness was somewhat reduced, Karel went inside the house and took the medicine. He quickly swallowed the pills prescribed by the doctor.
Doctors do give these pills as pain relievers for a while. After waiting for a while, gradually the pain in Karel's head disappeared.
Karel walked into the bedroom, knowing that this might be the last time he would be here. Gently touched the bed that had been a silent witness of his happiness with Julia.
Tears fell onto his cheeks. Karel slumped in bed, roaring in tears of sorrow alone. He knew that he would not be able to fight this disease.
But he could not tell Julia everything, he did not want to be a burden to his wife. Even her parents don't know.
Karel calmed himself down when he saw the clock had shown at 08:00. The pick-up car is coming soon.
Karel came out of the bedroom with a sadness that he could not shake. The bag he was going to carry, was placed in the living room.
Karel slowly walked to the back garden, kitchen and all the rooms in the house.
He just wanted to remember the beautiful memories he had felt while in this house.
Julia's laughter echoed in her ears, as well as Julia's voice when calling her name. Karel closed his eyes, only to remember the beautiful memories of his dream home with Julia.
But his heart feels sad when remembering if until now Julia has not been pregnant. Actually he really wants to have a baby, his flesh and blood with Julia.
Maybe if he is no longer there, his baby can continue to accompany Julia. Expel the feeling of loneliness if he is no longer able to accompany Julia again.
However ... Looks like God hasn't allowed him to have a baby with Julia.
Karel inhaled a deep breath, lingering to feel the distinctive smell of this house. Once satisfied, Karel walked out of the house, locked the door and sat on the terrace, waiting for his pick-up to come.
A white car stopped in the yard. Karel stood up and took his bag. He knew it was time to leave. He saw once again the house that bore witness to his beautiful wedding journey with his wife.
A man is seen exiting the car and helping Karel put his bag in the trunk.
After everything was done, the white car slowly moved away from the house.
"How are you doing, Karel?"
"I can still survive. Don't worry" said Karel, leaning his head.
"Your situation is so bad you still force it" the man grumbled.
"Don't be chatty! We go straight to the destination" said Karel who was upset with his friend.
"Okay, we're going straight to my house. I've prepared a special treatment room for you and a nurse who will take care of you until you recover."
"Don't joke, I know how I'm doing" said Karel calmly.
"Then how long are you gonna keep all this from Julia?" ask the man.
"And I told you that Julia wouldn't see me in pain. Let only good memories be remembered." Karel said confidently because he loved his wife very much.
"As far as you are. Oh yes, for tomorrow's operation is already prepared. I'm sure this surgery will work and you'll be cured."
"I've decided I won't have surgery."
"Why?" ask the man confused.
"Once, I know it's time for me to stop. The success of this operation is not more than 50%. I just want to go quietly" explained Karel.
"Don't do it, man. You have to be optimistic and keep fighting."
"I'm ready to go. I'm just asking you one more favor, take care of Julia. I have her" said Karel sincerely.
The man was silent, knowing that his love was only for Julia. But ...
"Buddy, I've explained all our plans. I think it's time you acted. I only trust you to take care of and love Julia sincerely" Karel said.
"alright, buddy. I promise I will always look after and love Julia" the man said sincerely.
