Mato did not let go of his gaze in the slightest to the woman he had hurt. Her heart grew sick to see Lisha who was trying hard even though she was actually very fragile. Wanting to hold her tightly let go of her longing all this time but she did not do it because Lisha would not allow it.
"Already". Lisha releases Mato's hand which has been bandaged.
" thank you.." Said Mato not letting go of her gaze to Lisha. There's no answer.
Lisha was silent, then sat back down on the chair. Rufi put the medicine box back into the room and came out with water and gave it to Mato. While Lita just silently looked at the less friendly situation. Rufi and Lita return to Lisha's room to let Mato and Lisha talk together.
After his two best friends are invisible. Lisha threw a glance in any direction.
"I've heard all the reasons you left me, so it's best that you go home now. I hope I don't think I'm a snatch for somebody's husband". Lisha smiled cynically after saying so, feeling amused by the word grabber husband person.
" no. I don't want to go home if you still don't look at me". Lisha was trying to take her eyes off. Never wanted to meet Mato.
"What's staring at you. You never wanted to see me this whole time".
Mato could no longer speak, only able to stare at Lisha wistfully.
" I'm sorry". That's all he said.
"Today my brain is too full so you go home now I want to rest". Lisha was about to return to her room but Mato held her back.
" I'll be home but I'll come back later".
"As far as you are. I'm tired".
" Yes, I went home. You rest don't mind much". Mato said before returning home, which made Felisha again let out a cynical smile, hearing Mato's words while holding her hands in her chest.
Seeing Felisha's cynical smile, Mato drew her exhaled breath violently. I feel far from forgiven. But he will not give up, determined to melt the heart of the woman he loves and will not let go again without knowing that Felisha already has Ando.
After Mato came home, Lisha was fixated in front of Rufi's room feeling like a dream with the incident just now.
It was very noticeable that Lisha was so hit with the reality she got. After seeing Mato's departure, Rufi and Lita went out to meet her best friend who was just silently daydreaming in front of her room. The two of them immediately led Felisha into the room.
I sat Lisha on the bed and gave her water to drink. Lisha grabbed the glass filled with water and then drank it until it was gone.
Her throat felt very dry considering the incident just now. Lisha never expected to find this reality, because during being with Mato, she never once found Mato's strange attitude. Never saw Mato drunk, never saw Mato close to any woman other than himself. It's hard to believe, but that's the truth.
Slowly Lisha spread her head over the thighs of her best friend Rufi. Instantly the two friends of Lisha looked at each other. Lita saw the fragile Felisha.
No more tears came out, only the look of his face and mind that looked so beaten. Maybe Lisha's logic is still in place so there are no more tears. He thought to what cry for the man who had betrayed him just for the reason of refusing to marry as soon as possible. Doesn't that mean he forced her to marry quickly out of lust? He can no longer stem his lust so look for impingement on other women? Perhaps this was the question Lisha had in mind at the moment.
Too hard to think, Lisha fell asleep in the lap of Rufi who gently stroked the head of her best friend who was still covered in instant hijab to sleep in her lap.
"Sleep". Lita told Rufi without a sound. Rufi immediately looked down to see what Lita said was right, it was fitting that her breathing began to regularly turned out to be sleeping anyway. Rufi smiled looking at Lisha who was asleep like a child with puffy eyes. While Lita looked at him with sadness. Feeling sorry for his best friend.
Lisha's cell phone rang, hurriedly looking for her whereabouts fearing Lisha woke up due to the ringing of her mobile phone, then immediately answered the phone that turned out to be a call from the lover of the friend. Who else if not Ando. Lita was a little away when she was about to speak.
" Assalamu'alaikum. This is Lita, Lisha is sleeping". Lita quickly explained with a little whisper but was still heard by Ando across there.
"Wa'alaikum...Oh Lita yes. Lisha is but all right?" The baritone's voice sounded worried.
" Yes, I'll call you back later".
" Siip kak.lanti pas Lisha nya woke up not telling me that brother Ando abis calling".
"OKAY. Thanks Ta. Assalamu'alaikum..."
"Sama-sama brother. Wa'alaikum..." Lita closed the call from Ando and breathed a sigh of relief because Ando did not ask too much about Felisha.
"Hufftt.Thank you Ando is not Video Calling". Said Lita while stroking the chest.
***
Mato drove his vehicle through the streets that began to be empty. The glance of the clock that circled his wrist was a little surprised, it turns out the clock has shown at 15:00 just right he felt his stomach slightly wrapped around because it had not had lunch since.
Deflecting his vehicle to the restaurant that happened to pass him to the parking lot which also looks empty because the break is over. People are back at work but he is still out of the office. What would the boss say if he found himself not in the room during office hours like this.
Sign in and immediately order food that the process is fast to serve. After that, he grabbed a phone that he had never seen before. There are already 3 missed calls from the number named "Sir Boss". Start thinking about what reason he will say later after meeting the Boss sir.
Upon seeing her hand covered in bandages, her brain immediately responded to the exact reason. Smile thinly while looking at her hand which is on the bandage. " Thank you, thank you. I'm sure you still love me as much as I love you until now and then. I'm sorry I just got to see you now." Inner Mato.
The order came, pretty fast. "Please, enjoy".
"Thank you". Said Mato to the waiter.
" The Same Mas".
After the servant went Mato devoured his food in a bit of a hurry. After his stomach filled, Mato immediately drove his vehicle to the office.
Opening the door of his room, walking towards the sofa that was there, where he used to receive guests. Dropping the p*ntatnya there and leaning release fatigue.
Unaware he fell asleep in a reclined position. Really tired. Tired brain and physical.
"Dad..."
"Dad..."
The call always comes.
"Heh.bun lu. Come play sleep with a child".
Mato opened her eyes and immediately sat up straight. Surprised by the presence of the boss in his room.
" Where did you come from. From there on the phone was not answered. The back of the office is sleeping". Omel the real boss is his own best friend.
Yes, Mato met his best friend before he had trouble with the woman he had been pregnant with. His best friend named Abraham was a friend during High School was the same as Sherly the woman who framed him. They were a class but not class except Abraham. Mato and Abraham are classmates while Sherly is not.
When Mato often visited the billiards first, he accidentally met with Abraham who also has a hobby of playing sodok ball. They then always go together to the billiards until when Mato is trapped by the woman, then Abraham is the one who helps her and helps her apart from Sherly.
