Married To An Ex

About Love or Obsession

Deon walked into his house. His footrest that sounded firm signified that the man was in a rush of emotions.

Then, a woman suddenly appeared before him.

“Get aside,” Deon said, pushing the woman's body.

“What's with that look on your face?” runa asked, the woman was somehow able to be inside Deon's house.

Deon sighed, ignoring Runa. But then, his steps came to a halt, the man turned to look at Runa.

“How did you get into my house?” deon asked, his forehead wrinkled in wonder.

Runa smiled, then one of her hands hung in the air, she showed Deon the spare key of the house.

“Where did you get it?” pissed Deon.

“Papa-mu,” replied Runa who directly put the key into the bag when Deon walked up to him.

“Give me,” command Deon.

“No,” answer.

Deon snorted, if only Runa was not a woman, Deon would have finished her off in the first place. That woman always pisses him off.

“Go, I have no interest in fighting with you,” Deon told me.

Runa scrunched her forehead, “Shattered mouth?” Runa's mind floated, imagining her kissing Deon.

“What are you thinking? Don't get me wrong with the figurative words I use,” Deon said.

“Cih,” reply Runa.

Deon looked at the woman for a moment, then he left her.

Runa who was suddenly lashed by curiosity, he followed Deon who had entered his room.

“You are very bad,” said Runa, making Deon surprised by the voice of the woman who was still around him.

“Who told you to come into my room, huh?!” deon exclaimed, getting annoyed.

“Out!” tell him with a snarl. But Runa, the woman was used to being snapped by her father, so snapping like Deon did would not scare her.

“You're upset not because of me, are you?” guess Runa, diverting the conversation, the woman then walked over to the curtain of Deon's room which was still tightly closed. Then, both of his hands opened the curtain, until the night sky was seen by his brown eyes.

“Go,” tell Deon.

“Cerita, maybe that way you can calm down,” said Runa while staring at the stars hanging above.

“You take it easy, I am not the type of person who likes to gossip, let alone tell the outpouring of a man like you,” said Runa, he turned his body around, then looked at Deon who was still frozen in place.

“Go,” tell Deon, still put out the same word.

“You know? That love fools us,” Runa ignored Deon's words, he went back to discussing something baseless.

“Just because the person is different, I love him, believe that he will always be there for me. But then, the fact that I got made me realize that love does not exist, all just mirages,” explained Runa while looking far into her past.

“Go, I am not asking you to tell me your story,” Deon said as he stepped closer to his bed.

“That guy, he's very popular, a lot of women like him. I thought he would never know commitment, so I confidently left him, thinking that he would definitely come back to me one day. But, do you know what I get when I get back?” Runa looked at Deon who was sitting on the edge of the bed behind her.

“He changed,” he said as he turned to look at the sky again, “He became an adult male figure with his firm commitment. I don't even believe in him now. She was like a different person,” continued Runa, a drop of tears streaming down her face.

“Can I ask you?”

Deon silent.

“When we force love, and hope that our love is reciprocated by our loved ones, do you think it is really love or an obsession?”

“It's obsession.” Runa continued his story.

“Go!” deon exclaimed, the man was getting emotional. “Go or I force you to leave here?” emphatically.

Runa let out a sigh, feeling good at the man, she knew what Deon was feeling, because, what Deon was feeling was also his own. Loving but not loved.

Runa smiled wryly, she then stepped towards the exit of the room, but before her feet actually stepped out, Runa paused for a moment, she uttered a sentence that seemed to be stuck eternally in Deon's mind.

“Obsession we pursue, will basically only hurt ourselves, and also him, our loved ones,” he said, after which he stepped back, leave with tears in your eyes without anyone knowing.

“Why you?” ask Juna. He was astonished by his wife who looked glum ever since he returned from buying a hand for her in-laws.

Risa was silent, but the woman then turned her head, looking towards Juna who was still waiting for her to speak.

A moment after they were silent and threw a glance. Risa commented on her smile, a smile that made Juna's heart feel strange.

“I'm fine,” replied Risa. He lied, his body was fine but his soul and mind were tormented. His mind floated, remembering the words he had already harshly spoken to Deon.

Stupid, that's how Risa cursed herself, she regretted that she had told Deon like that. Regret touches Risa's heart to the roots.

“Is there a problem? Be honest with me,” said Juna.

“Not there, Honey. I'm fine, seriously,” he said.

Juna nodded, “Alright,” he said, giving in, even though he knew his wife was lying.

“Come,” tell Juna, while patting his thighs. “Sleep here,” Plus.

Risa smiled, then obeyed her husband's words, she slept on Juna's thigh, looking at her husband's face that felt more handsome from her point of view.

“Honey,” call Juna while stroking his wife's hair is soft.

“Hm?”

“You ... would you like to not have a honeymoon?” ask Juna.

“Not was it before?”

“Used us honeymoon just because we had to, now different,” said Juna.

“Oh yes? What difference?”

“If now .. because I want to, I want us to go to a romantic place like you, with nothing to disturb. Just the two, until we feel the world is just us, me and you,” said Juna.

Risa smiled, she messed with her face that looked red. Her husband sounds so romantic, no wonder, an ex-playboy like Juna should be an expert at stirring words until it becomes something sweet to hear by his wife's ears.

“Jadi ... You want us honeymoon where?” ask Risa.

“Maldieves?” juna.

“Where again?”

“There are places I want to visit with you there,” explained Juna.

“What kind of place?”

Juna smiled, he looked at his wife was clingy, a brief kiss landed on Risa's tiny lips, making Risa's heart beat fast, the red hue on her face was increasingly visible.

“Look at it later, you'll love it,” said Juna.

“You know, as long as you are by my side, I never care where we are going, because with you, everything looks fun and is much more beautiful.”. The attack of revenge as a temptation for her husband.
