My Mr's. Virgin

Chapter LXXV

He stared at the hospital phone that was in his grasp. Swim tears. Sebak, but not spilled. The longing gets more tight in the chest, dragging it into the sorrows of the nestapa. Miss the deceased mother, miss the best friend, miss the one she left behind first.

He stepped foot onto a long bench in the waiting room of Mount Elizabeth Hospital. The news is still rife that Hendra is married, while Mariana will follow in his footsteps in a few days. What about her? Is he still faithful waiting for his return?

Such questions often took a toll on his mind. He stared at the two photos he always carried everywhere. Decorative smiles on the lips when remembered the beautiful memories with them first. Will the good times of old repeat themselves? Time has passed, leaving behind a million bitter memories of the sweetness of life, a history that can no longer be repeated.

Now they are different, each having their own life. However, their friendship is still long lasting. They're all he's got. Brother and friend. They are always there in times of trouble and pleasure. People say, 'brother is not necessarily a friend, but, a friend can be a good brother and friend.'

Three Years Ago

Throughout being inside Mariana's room, she was just silent. Want to make a sound, tell about the problems he faced, but undo it when he saw his friends had their own busyness. Hendra is kasmaran with Ita. Faced with his Huawei phone. Occasionally make jokes to comfort the heart of friends who are being overwhelmed by grief. Mariana was crying with tears. Understandably, new people break up. Stare at Daniel and Novi's wedding invitation card, which will last two days.

This morning Mariana received the invitation. Sent directly by Mother Dita, as well as asking the girl to sing for guests on the wedding day of her son later. Indeed his best friend was paid, but money was not the first choice, while he was only able to see his fingernails. Occasionally staring at a Nokia phone as wide as three fingers without a camera aka Nokia elut, the language of the village.

The Nokia phone was deliberately turned off, fearing the loan sharks smelled its existence, but, he was also worried that the lover would contact him. It had been a few days since he ran from the pursuit of loan sharks. However, just as cleverly as the squirrel jumped, it ended up falling to the ground as well. At 20:00 WITA someone called her via Mariana's cell phone.

There was a threat from the caller, if he would come to Mariana's house to get money from the girl or make herself a prostitute. The third option, they will go to his lover's house. These three choices are not wise choices. Mariana is already burdened with her family problems. She became the backbone to bring her family to life even though the girl owned an accessories store.

To ask Hendra for help, the child was not from a rich man. He also hangs his life on both of his parents. The third choice was very undesirable. He did not want to impose his debt problems on the family of the lover. He also did not want the man's family to look down on him or think of him as a girl who attached material importance to the family.

Finally that night, she decides to leave everyone including her lover following an acquaintance who invites her to travel to Singapore without telling anyone. Before going to Singapore, they went to Bali, because the agent who took them there lived in Bali. While in Bali for two or three days, she saw Mariana was there too, and that was where she last met the girl. Without telling me why he was there.

"Regina!"

"Yes, sir," he answered. The call brought him back to the real world.

"Please take care of the grandma!"

"Yes, sir."

"Thank you."

...***...

"Here, Brother. Careful, e!" mariana's directions to some of the men who brought her into the wardrobe.

"Sir Ana, the door is narrow."

"He-he-he! Yes, the door is small. So, love slanted first." Mariana walked in front of the sliding sofa to the side, giving room for them to get younger through the entrance.

"Kribo, where is this closet going?" ask Andreas.

"Just be here" he answered.

That morning some men came with Mariana's wardrobe using store-owned pickups. The cupboard had been in order for a long time, but only between those days.

Once ready, Mariana invites them to drink first, but they refuse because it is not a time of rest. They're still working.

"This new closet is here, and then what do you want to do with that old closet? Your room doesn't fit if you keep two cabinets." Andreas looked at Mariana's new closet.

"Maybe transferred to your mom's house. The cupboard's still good, only one leg's broken."

"Can hold this closet." Andreas gave a compliment.

Mariana nodded. "I've been ordering since March, but tomorrow they're getting married again." Mariana also looked at her new closet. "But I am satisfied with their work. Beautiful," he praised.

Andreas nodded, agreeing with Mariana's words.

"What time did the Maumere family come?" ask Mariana.

"They arrived at 8:00. Now they are at Sipri's house" Andreas replied.

Mariana and Andreas did not allow to meet until the wedding day arrived, which is tomorrow, but, because someone came to deliver her wardrobe, Mariana was forced to go to her house in Larantuka, then I met Andreas.

The man chose to stay at Mariana's house, because he was used to living there. The dance that delivers food for him and prepares his needs, if the man needs anything.

After finishing arranging the cabinets and other furniture in her house, Mariana said goodbye to Andreas to return to the mother's house. Andreas also said goodbye to Om Sipri's house. Mariana locked the door and left the key under the Bougenville flower pot, while Andreas left the house.
