Celine*
My phone rang, I looked at the phone screen and it turned out that someone had unexpectedly contacted me. He was my best friend when I was a kid. Her name is Siane Robert. He is currently abroad. He pursues his ideals as high as the sky.
Slide the green panel on my phone screen. I got a call from him. We talked.
Talk on the phone*
"Hallo" I answered, shortly after receiving his call.
"Chelle, Celine. You're not at your house, yeah. I stopped by there and Auntie said you've moved into your husband's house. That right? can we meet? there's something I want to tell you," he said long. He immediately told me his purpose.
I smiled, "It could be. We met at .. "I gave him the address of the hospital where I was treated. "Don't ask me anything first. Just come, I'll explain directly." I continued.
Siane was silent for a moment, "Alright. I'll go straight there." he replied.
"Yes, be careful." I asked.
"Ok" he answered briefly. He ended our call.
I'm a little surprised. We did not meet for long. Last time I met him was before I got married. Unlike my other friends, Siane is a typical friend who does not convoluted. If he's happy he'll say happy, if not then he's not.
Since childhood, he has always helped me in trouble. His nature to Ibuan made me comfortable. He's always nagging, if he finds out I'm sick. I don't know what he's going to say, knowing my condition is like this. I can imagine a horn that would be a body on its head.

Long wait, Siane also datanh. He brought my favorite dessert. When Siane arrived in the room, she just kept silent and did not speak. He stared at my face, with his forehead wrinkled.
"So, I .." I said. I'm confused, where to talk from.
"Me, what?" connect Siane. "Speak just relax. Tell me what you want to say. From anywhere, there's no need to think I understand or not. I'll tell your story myself" he said.
I also started telling stories. I'm telling you about my married life with Hezkiel. I told you everything, up to the smallest thing.
" ... that's it." My story stopped.
"Then, how did you get to this hospital? tell me," she asked, still with the same facial expression.
"Ok," I replied, telling him again.
I told you about Monna, too. Monna I thought was Hezkiel's mistress. Monna suddenly revealed her own secret, and also Hezkiel who did not deny the fact that the two were married before Hezkiel married me. Again, I told Siane everything. I'm whistling the truth, but strangely I can't hide anything from Siane.
" ... Maybe because I'm not careful. I fell down and it was something unwanted. Until I had to lose my baby candidate" I said.
"Celine, can I be honest?" Ask.
I nodded my head, "maybe, why not." I replied.
"Maybe you think I'm evil. Whatever, what do you want to think. It's just my personal opinion." he replied. He took a deep breath then, exhaling slowly. "After hearing your story. I'm just thankful you're experiencing this. I'm sorry, I'm mean to be so glad you lost your future son. But, think about it. If you're still with your son. Can you be free from the shackles? once you're targeted, your next target must be your son. You don't know for sure, she has a side. He alone dares to say things that directly attack your mentality. Isn't this better? your son will not feel tormented and uncomfortable I speak like this also from experience. You'll live with Lidya, the witch. Do you feel comfortable? nope, kan. You happy? definitely not. He is just insulting you. You want your son to be treated like that? no, right." at length he spoke.
His words made me think. After I think about it carefully. What he said has a point.
Siane rubbed my head, "My advice, leave your husband and live happily to be Celine completely." she continued speaking by giving me directions.
"Can I?" muttered.
"Why not?" tanya Siane widened her eyes.
"I ... "I was then, speechless.
"You doubt, because you have no purpose? you're confused, what to do? right, right." said Siane.
I nodded my head. Because that's what I thought from the beginning. I doubt it, I am confused too.
"Want me help?" siane said suddenly.
Siane smiled, "You want to come with me? yeah, even though I'm not as rich as your Papa or that rotten man. If only to accommodate you, I'm quite capable" he said again.
"You, hold me?" muttered.
"Yes, I'm holding you. If not me, who else? you got someone you can back up right now?" he said, answering my murmur.
"Is it okay?" I honestly doubt. My mind hasn't gone that far.
"Celine, listen to me. Do you want to continue like this? or, don't you want to go back to that crazy guy? there's no way you're going back to your family's house. You have no choice, my friend." Siane spoke with great confidence to me.
I was silent for a moment to think. If I just leave, will everything be fine? how, huh? at least there should be someone who knows my purpose of leaving so that there are no misunderstandings. I need support too.
"Ok, let's do it as you say. But, before we go. I want to talk to my two in-laws first. They're very kind to me, at least I don't want to go without saying goodbye. Yes, yes." I replied. I finally agreed to Siane's idea.
"of course. Very good, you have always been a good boy, yes." he smiled.
Yeah, maybe this is the best. I'm going to leave, leave everyone who makes me suffer. I'm not like a coward running from trouble, am I?

After I called and asked Papa also my mother-in-law came. Both came in the evening. Mama brought me dinner, as usual she was very attentive to me. Papa and Mama I introduced Siane.
At the time we had dinner together, I also expressed my intention and purpose of calling the two to come. At least I should say goodbye.
"Hm, Pa, Ma .. "call me.
"Yes, honey. Tell me, what's up?" answer Mama.
"Why, Celine?" ask Papa.
"Umh, I .. I want to say goodbye." I said slightly lowered my head.
"Pamitan? you're going?" ask Mama. I answered with a nod of my head.
"Celine, can Papa know. Where are you going?" ask Papa.
"I'm going to live with my friend, Siane. Yes, this does sound crazy and absurd, because I'm just going to disappear. But I want to forget everything. Whether it's family or marriage. Papa and Mama certainly understand what I mean, without me explaining in more detail." I try to explain everything I can.
I see, Papa and Mama-in-law looked at each other. My mother-in-law was crying, she looked sad.
"Alright, if that's your will. Then, leave. Find happiness. Breathe in relief without anything and someone pressing on you" Papa said.
Beyond my expectations. Papa talks to me like that. I felt like I was in the wind and my body was cold.
"Is it really okay?" ask again.
"Lie if we're not sad, Celine. You're like my own daughter. Since the beginning of seeing you, I did know and already felt, if you pressured your family. Including Mama. But, we have no right to interfere too deeply, because we don't want you to get hurt." Papa explained.
"Papa .. "call me, I cry. It's really stifling. I was sad, also moved. Apparently, there are still people who secretly care about me.
Mama held my hand and then, grabbed me. He rubbed my back. My tears did not stop dripping, it felt like what I was harboring had all come out. Everything that worries me is gone.
"But before you go. We want you to completely recover. Ok." said Papa.
"Yes, Pa. That must be." I replied.
"Celine, Mama and Papa will support whatever your decision is. Don't think we're just your father and mother-in-law. But, think of us as your real Papa and Mama, son." said Mama.
I know, This guy's Second Heart must be very sad. They had no other children besides Hezkiel. Although this is strange, I actually feel closer to my Papa and Mama-in-law, compared to Papa himself.
