MARRIED DUREN ANSA

Want Yourself

Ary left the mall at once the hotel. Ary was really disappointed with Alex. Ary left the place without anyone noticing. Even now Ary is on the bus to Solo. Ary turned off his HP that was commonly used for everyone. While the other HP is left active, special HP for bucket gangs and nearby families only.

"Just starting to open your heart, why is this sick? Maybe I should keep my promise to you, Bang. Can you feel what I feel? Brother, how should I do?!" inner Ary felt tight.

At a time like this, Ary always remembered Rendy. Her husband who died. Rendy never made her cry, except for her illness. Anyone does not want to get sick, but all of that has become a way of life for someone.

"Had Abang still been around, Ary wouldn't have been caught up in a situation like this. Brother!" Ary kept calling her late husband.

Ary began to calm down after the bus he was riding entered the area of Jogja. Along the way, Ary continued to recite to connect his heartbreak. As soon as the bus entered Giwangan terminal, Ary sent a message to Rommy.

"Rom, pick me up at Janti! At the bus stop!" Rommy read the message in wonder.

"Tumbens! On weekdays, midnight again, ask for a pick-up at the bus stop. Where is the driver's car?" mummy Rommy astonishment

"Ready boss!" rommy answered with a message.

"Now yes!" reply Ary.

"Ok 👌!" answer Rommy.

After reaching the destination, Ary got off the bus was already greeted by Rommy.

"Wow there's an angel getting off the bus!" chirps Rommy, as soon as he saw Ary get off the bus majoring Solo.

"What the hell, lebay!" ary replied with a smile.

Although Ary smiled, his smile could not cover his eyes. Ary was crying too much, so her eyes were swollen.

They walked hand in hand to Rommy's car not far from the place. Rommy opened the car door for Ary.

"Why are your eyes so swollen? What's up, hmm?" rommy asked as soon as she sat behind the wheel.

Ary answered with a head, without answering Rommy's question.

"If Rendy were alive, she wouldn't let tears fall on your smooth cheeks." continued Rommy.

"If Rendy was still alive, maybe right now I wouldn't ask you to pick me up." replied Ary still with a sweet smile.

"You don't have to be like that, pretend to be okay! If you want to cry, cry! Take everything out, so that your heart is relieved." said Rommy advising Ary.

Ary's eyes begin to dew, indicating that he's not okay. There was a heavy burden on him.

"Where are we going? Basecamp us or home?" ask Rommy later.

"Anyone in Basecamp?" ary asked while looking at Rommy.

Rommy who felt being stared at Ary also turned forward towards Ary.

"As usual, it's just me. Brandon's abroad." replied Rommy after the sight met with Ary.

"We're going there! But I slept in Rendy's room. It's still like old times, right?" ary replied sure.

"Still! How dare we change it without your permission, as the owner!" so Rommy.

Ary wants to be alone, he doesn't want to be bothered by anyone. Only in Basecamp is the option at the moment. Because only the bucket trio knows the place. Rommy and Brandon must have taken good care of Ary, according to Rendy's message.

"Wokayeh! Slide up!" rommy shouted loudly.

Finally they headed to the place where the three of them had gathered together. A quiet place, a small house bought by Rendy, as a hiding place from her parents at that time.

Two-story house with 4 master bedrooms and 1 maid room. Two rooms below and two others above. Ary occupies Rendy's room upstairs with a spacious balcony. Rommy and Brandon occupy the rooms downstairs.

The house has been occupied by Brandon and Rommy, along with a married couple who work cleaning and maintaining the house.

"Because it's quiet, we chose this place. This place is still fresh, because the environment is still clean. People are rare here, so be calm. Suitable for people who want to be alone." replied Rommy.

"You're not far from the office, if you live here?" ary asked as soon as they sat in the living room.

"I rarely come here. Just fitting in here." Java Rommy.

"Oh, can you please too huh?!" ledek Ary's.

"Everybody can be stressed, Ary! The work that builds up sometimes makes us stressed. So let's not stress me out here." replied Rommy.

"You'd better sleep, it's night! If you are still upset, you better just vent. Let's relax!" rommy advises before leaving Ary alone.

Ary just nodded his head, hearing the advice from Rommy. Then Ary stood up and walked towards his room upstairs.

The house was bought by Rendy on credit, with his big DP motor. The installments are paid for by income from the sale of computers. Rendy was angry with her parents. So he left the house given by his parents, the house that now belongs to Ary.

Ary scanned the entire room in that room. He has only been in this room twice. Before getting married, Rendy had brought him here. But it was only a few minutes away, just picking up the missing files.

"Nothing has changed." muttered Ary as he continued to enter the room.

After being satisfied around, Ary went into the bathroom to clean himself up. After finishing, Ary began to complain his fate to the Most Merciful. He believes more in pouring out all his complaints on God, compared to humans. Because God must have kept his secret tight.

****

The next morning Ary starts reactivating his HP which he had turned off when he left Alex's mall. While active, many messages came in from Alex asking for his whereabouts. There were some missed calls from Alex. Ary turned off his HP again, because it felt nothing important.

"To her heresy Rendy!" greet Rommy as soon as Ary walks near the dining table.

"Morning too!" ary replied with a smile etched on her lips.

"You look fresh! Did you sleep well last night?" rommy asked while sitting in front of Ary.

"Thank God, as you see. My sleep was very good, it felt like last night I was hugged Brother." replied Ary with a joke.

"Abang is already in heaven, where it might be able to hug you!" answer Rommy.

Ary took toast and smeared it with his favorite chocolate jam.

"You?" bargain Ary on Rommy.

"Thank you, I had breakfast. I'm picking up Brandon at the airport, you want to come?" rommy said while tapping the table with her finger.

"No! I'm just here!" ary replied as she brought the bread to her mouth.

"All right, I'll go first. If you need anything, call me or Brandon!" Rommy told Ary.

"Snipp!" ary answered with a thumbs up his left hand.

After getting an answer from Ary, Rommy leaves Ary alone in the house. The housekeepers who were there were busy with their jobs.

A suitable place for Ary to be alone, contemplating all that he has been through with Alex. Right now Ary just wants to be alone without being disturbed by anyone.
