MARRIED DUREN ANSA

Being late to realize

"Abang.." said Ary while sprinkling roses into Rendy's grave.

"Ary's sorry, but now Ary's coming. Ary is busy working, so no time nengokin Abang."

"Ary Kangen Brother, you're not the same as Ary?"

Ary sitting next to Rendy's grave, Ary started sobbing with tears. Shortly after, Ary lay on top of Rendy's grave, wailing for Rendy's departure.

"Why did you leave Ary alone? We haven't gone, not honey, to the place you promised. Brother...!" racau Ary in between her tears.

That's how Ary, since Rendy died Ary often daydreams and suddenly roars crying over the departure of Rendy. Before getting married to Rendy, Ary had a big crush on Rendy.

But as time goes by, without Ary realizing that love is present. Love comes with time, because it is accustomed to the attention and existence of a person. Although at first the taste is not there, but will be present and difficult to be eliminated. The love that comes from being used to one's attention and presence, will be hard to forget. That love will always bloom and eventually flourish.

That's how Ary felt all along, the small attention that Rendy often does and Rendy's ignorance makes Ary bend the knee. Ary finally realized his feelings, but it was too late. Ary regains consciousness after Rendy leaves for good.

After the sky turned orange, Ary rose. He walked with shaky steps leaving Rendy's grave, occasionally he turned his head towards the navel as if reluctant to leave the place.

Arriving at home, Ary went straight to his room. It used to be Rendy's room, after getting married and Rendy died, Ary would rather lock himself up in that room. It was in that room that Ary poured all his yearning on Rendy. In fact, not infrequently Ary wears Rendy clothes, wearing all the items Rendy wears. Rendy's perfume was never far from her either.

After taking a shower, Ary sat on the bed leaning back. He started to unlock Rendy's HP. HP with Ary photo wallpaper, even the gallery contains photos of Ary that was secretly taken by Rendy.

"Abang, it turns out so big your love for me. So many pictures of me you took secretly. Even our chat for months you didn't delete." murmured Ary while wiping Rendy's HP.

As long as Ary held onto Rendy's HP, Ary had never activated that HP for long. If the feeling of longing is unbearable again, then Ary will activate and open the HP.

The next day...

Ary, who had made an appointment with Brandon to talk about Rendy's business, finally went to Rendy's shophouse. Rend's Comp is thus the name of the business, a business that sells and assembles computers, as well as computer service.

"Assalamu'alaikum!" greet Ary as soon as he entered the three-story building.

Ary greeted some of Rendy's employees kindly.

"Wa'alaikum hail, madam! Can we help you?" replied one of the beautiful-faced women.

"Hm... I made an appointment with Brandon. Is he in place?" said Ary developing her sweet smile.

"Oh, wait a minute, ma'am! Sorry about who?" said the girl.

"Ary." Ary replied briefly.

The employee then contacted Brandon.

"Mbak Ary, please! I drove to Brandon's mas room" Yuna said as she walked ahead of Ary.

Ary was escorted to the second floor, because there was Brandon and Rommy's room.

Yuna knocked on the door, then opened it after getting a speech from inside. Yuna lets Ary into the room and leaves him.

"Assalamu'alaikum!" greet Ary while entering Brandon's room.

"Wa'alaikum hail! Uhh, the doctor's here. Please sit!" brandon replied as he approached Ary and pointed to the sofa that was in the room.

"Call Ary, if I'm not a doctor here. This is not a hospital, this is a place to buy and sell computers" Ary replied with a smile.

"It's impossible! The doctor is older than us, however we have to respect the doctor" Brandon replied.

"Why is it not possible? My husband's your friend, which means I'm your friend too, right?" ask Ary.

"We're excited about Ary!" rommy replied that suddenly appeared from behind the table.

Ary was surprised by the voice that suddenly appeared. Because Ary didn't see any Rommy in the room.

Brandon who saw Ary was shocked immediately laughed, because of the look of Ary's funny face.

"Haha!"

"Lo why is it suddenly chuckling, crazy cake?" ask Rommy wonder.

Ary was embarrassed to be laughed at by Brandon, just keeping quiet while playing his HP. Ary is not usually easily surprised, because his mind floated into the past, making him surprised.

"No, nothing!" brandon replied while holding back his laughter.

"Crazy!" rommy replied while putting her index finger to the forehead.

"Hmmm!" Ary cleared his throat to separate the Brandon and Rommy debates.

Brandon and Rommy instantly fell silent as soon as Ary cleared his throat.

"I'm sorry, what exactly am I here for?" ask Ary curious.

"Yesterday you asked me to come here, didn't you? Did something happen?" flocked Ary.

"We plan to expand this business, so that it can develop even more. Because the demand for goods is getting higher, then inevitably we have to establish cooperation with other companies."

"I follow, I've left it to you both. I believe in you, but I beg you very much, lest this venture close due to lack of capital and unsatisfactory service." replied Ary

"It can't be so, Ary!" rommy Sahut.

"We are both here trying to progress the company, even though the founder is no longer there. Rendy's position has been replaced by his wife, Ary! So for the continuity of the company, we must meet often to discuss steps in advancing the business." replied Brandon.

Brandon is in control of the company, after Ary leaves it entirely to Brandon. Ary deliberately leaves everything to Brandon and Rommy. All because Ary does not know about computers and his business.

" I've told you, I'm up to you. The important thing is that this effort continues to grow, if the problem with whom we work together, it doesn't have to wait for my approval. You can decide for yourself without me having to interfere. I have a job that cannot be left behind. My responsibility has taken away my mind and energy." explained Ary.

"Can't be so dong! All this time we worked as subordinates of Rendy. Everything we decided had to go through his approval. Now he's gone, now you're the one" Brandon replied.

"You are more experienced in running this business. I'm blind to business" Ary said.

"What if my decision destroys this business? I don't want to risk the fate of the workers here. So please, you guys don't have to wait for me. Decide what you think is good." continued Ary.

"Ary can actually learn how to take care of this business. How to know someday we have capital and set up our own business" said Rommy.

"It doesn't mean we don't want to continue this effort. But could it be that our thoughts change over time?" continued Rommy.

"Perhaps by taking care of this effort, Ary's mind will be a little distracted. I mean, so that Ary is not lonely because of Rendy's abandonment" said Brandon suddenly because he saw Ary who was silent to hear the words of Rommy.
