My husband's a High School Boy

Episode 58's

Right after the lunch break was over, Ala had already re-entered the office. Ria who had been in the secretary's chair had put on a sumringah face to welcome him.

"How did he.." Ria's sentence was still floating in the air because Ala did not look at her secretary at all and passed into her space. Making Ria frown because in addition to ignoring him, the boss also put on a sour and upset face.

Feeling that something was wrong, Ria immediately turned around following Ala into her room. "Is something wrong?" Ask when I get to Ala's table.

Ala sighed. "It turns out exactly what you think. He lied about the pain."

Ria looks not surprised because she was the one who told the possibility of Hilda lying about her pain. "Certainly? What did you have that for?" Ask Ria enthusiastically.

"I threatened him. If he's still macem-macem with Felix, I won't hesitate for his father to lose his job." The mimic still looks upset considering the conversation earlier this afternoon with Hilda.

Ria chuckled at the sight of her best friend and boss still showing an annoyed face. Not usually a stiff woman like Ala is so upset because hers is disturbed by other women. "Aren't you cleaning him up? Why do you still look upset? I don't usually think of you."

"Where am I not sprained? I don't know why Felix is a girl like Hilda benefits like that. Continue to believe it the same as his father." Ala answered with annoyance.

"You must be calm, lest your anger prevail. Remember that! You're pregnant again, take a breath and breathe slowly."

Ala followed Ria's instructions to take a breath and throw it away slowly. Then Ria handed him a glass of water that she took from her desk.

"La.. Don't forget that your husband is still a high school boy." Ria.

Ala's eyebrows are linked to each other. "Certainly? What's the same relationship with Hilda?"

"Yes something to do dong, there are times when surely the way of thinking is still immature. It's not like we've eaten more of life's salt acid than he." Obviously Ria.

Ala patted her eel. He completely understood the meaning of Ria's words. She forgot that her husband was 18 years old. "I forget.I always assume that we're the same age because sometimes the way he thinks is so mature."

Ria nodded her head. He knew exactly what Ala said. Remembering from the story that Ala often told about Felix. Indeed, the man often thinks more mature in making some decisions than Ala who has more age. "Everything, you don't be too hard on him. I'm glad he doesn't always whine at this or do problems like teenagers in general."

Bak was slapped by Ria's words, the anger and annoyance that Ala had felt in an instant instantly disappeared into shame. Shame because always put forward the ego. Ala covered her entire face with both of her palms. "I felt guilty and ashamed. I who age more than him sometimes always behave childishly. In contrast to him who always gives up."

Ria smiled faintly hearing that. "Sometimes age can't be a benchmark for someone's adult level, La."

Ala took a long breath. Then lean his body into the work chair. Looking at the face of his friend who still smiled thinly. "Thank you, Ria.. I'm so grateful to have a friend as sincere as you."

"I'm only repaying your kindness, La. If there is a problem, tell me the same story. As long as I can help, I will help. But yeah, that's all I can do." Answer Ria. He recalled that when he repeatedly needed money for the care of his parents who were sick, Ala always helped selflessly. Or when her husband was exposed to PHK, Hiromi's family was happy to give him a job even though at that time there were no vacancies at all.

"Your help means so much to me that it's far from the word grown-up." Ala smiled happily looking at Ria. Although now he only had close friends of one person, it was better than a thousand friends who were not necessarily as sincere as Ria.

The school bell was heard in the ears of the students. Felix is one of them. He cleaned his bag and rushed out of class. His heart was already restless because it heard Ala would meet Hilda at her work break. Felix knew that Hilda did not go to school today. Today is the day Hilda reveals she will quit school and return to overseas. Although he was a bit doubtful why Hilda so easily came and returned abroad, but soon he was tepis considering it was not that he should think about.

For now, he was worried about Hilda for fear that his wife would do something to the girl. Given how fragile the mentality Hilda has. Felix immediately propelled his bike to the house of Hilda.

After arriving, his forehead frowned to find Hilda's house that had returned empty like before.

Felix looked at his watch. Still 3 hours and 5 minutes. Hilda should still be getting ready to leave for the airport. Then he decided to knock on the door. There was no reply from inside the house. The sign is empty in the house.

The phone behind his jacket pocket shook. Make him distract for a moment for his hape. Her feelings were relieved when she found Hilda's name calling her.

"Hello.. Where are you? I was in front of the house."

"I was at the airport. My dad bought tickets at an early hour."

"Why don't you talk to me?"

".."

"Hello?"

Felix looked back at the hape screen. Confused because of sudden silence even though the call is still ongoing.

"I'm sorry, Fel." Hilda's voice was heard softly in her hape.

"You mean?"

A moment of silence returned in the middle of their conversation. "I'm sorry that the pain in my wrist is fake."

Felix's forehead frowned. "Fake?"

"Yes, I've actually recovered after receiving treatment from abroad. I haven't done that in a long time, Fel."

".." Felix took a moment of silence to process the information he had just heard.

"I told my father to lie. Threatening to tell you the truth, I'll cut my own hands back. Sorry I'm Fel.." There was a sound across the phone.

"Why did you do all that?" Ask Felix curious.

"I'm desperate after hearing of your marriage, Fel. Honestly I still love you, hoping you're waiting for me to come home from abroad. But.."

"But I turned away?" Felix cuts off Hilda's unfinished speech.

"Maybe I still can't let go of my love for you, Fel. But I'm sure that now I can take you off with another woman. So this time I just wanted to be happy. Wish I could open a new page to forget you."

"Ah, yes.." Felix doesn't know what to say. On the other hand, a sense of relief enveloped his heart.

"Take care of yourself, Fel."

Not yet Felix answered again, the sound of a disconnected call was heard. Felix just looked at his hape screen for a moment. Then put the hape back in his jacket pocket. And take the motor home.
