NO DIGAS ADIOS (Don't Say Goodbye)

NDA - 55-S

Mr. Fendi enjoyed a cup of coffee while reading the newspaper in the front room. Today he contacted Go Clean to help him some and pack up some unused items at his house. They said they'd be here in an hour.

"Mbak Selenia seems to be at home, sir lives with her husband" said Mang Komar while wiping some furniture in the living room.

Mr. Fendi smiled from behind his newspaper. "Hopefully so, Mang. Yesterday as long as I was there, they were also like ayem."

"But did Ms Selenia not want to come here sir? Ever since she got married, she never came here again."

"He really wants to come here Mang, too" Mr. Fendi closed his newspaper. "But you know, she's pretty close to Miss Kalila. Fear is sad he said."

Mang Komar fell silent and resumed his activities. He understands what Mr. Fendi means. Selenia was the hardest hit when her mother died. Not to mention the addition of his last request that incriminates Selenia. Mang Komar who has known Selenia since she was a child, knows her nature. Selenia is a jolly person. He had even considered Mang Komar like his own family. Selenia used to often ngerecokin Mang Komar when she was several houses. But ever since Mama started going in and out of the hospital, Selenia's jolly nature slowly disappeared. He often locked himself in his room. Sometimes Mang Komar also likes to see Selenia daydreaming while looking at family photos hanging on the walls in some rooms of the house.

"Which, later if there's a Go Clean Dateng, call me huh?" Mr. Fendi got out of the chair. "I'm going upstairs first."

"Oh, yes sir. Okay," Mang Komar lowered his head.

Fero, Tony's classmate, throws a paper ball at Tony when he finds the boy buried his face at the table while the lesson was going on. That morning their class was receiving Chemistry lessons from Mr. Nino. The man, who had just graduated from college a few months ago, seemed busy standing on the classroom podium and writing down many formulas on the board.

Tony straightened his body, looking for the paper ball thrower. Fero grinned as Tony stopped looking at him. Unwilling to respond to what Fero did, he again bent his body lazily on the table. Fero shook his head at Tony's unusual attitude. Strange, tired of it, he thought.

"How's Dam? Are you complete with construction documents?" Mr. Anton walked into Adam's room while carrying some sheets of paper that he immediately put on Adam's desk.

"Live a little more, sir" said Adam as he continued to stare at the computer screen. "I'm still checking, but it looks like it's done."

"It's good then" Mr. Anton threw his body in the chair. "So I've also reminded Irham about heavy equipment and some other materials."

Adam shuffled from the file in front of him. He smiled and breathed a sigh of relief at having successfully completed the documents that these few days were enough to keep him very busy. But then the smile disappeared as his eyes stared at the sheet of paper Mr. Anton had just put on his desk. While pulling the paper, he glanced doubtfully at Mr. Anton who smiled meaningfully.

"That's your study form to Frankfurt" Anton said.

Adam's forehead shriveled. On that paper there were countless empty columns that had to be filled with his complete identity.

"I have chosen you and Galuh (marketing) who will join the program," Mr. Anton added.

Adam no longer thought about this offer. Why did Mr Anton remind him? The file at home has also been museumed into the drawer.

"Why are you quiet, Dam? You still intend to join the program, right?" Mr. Anton folded his hands on the table.

"Ehmm. Yes sir..."

"But what's Dam?" cut Mr. Anton impatient. "That's the shortest program you can take in just 1 year. But if you want to extend, even good. I'm very supportive."

Adam took a long breath. In this case he is so salute to superiors like Mr. Anton who are so concerned and concerned about the future of his employees. But still, this time Mr. Anton's offer was quite heavy for him to decide.

"There's still a few months left, sir" Adam rereads some of the pages. "I'll make sure before that day comes, I've made a decision."

Mr. Anton mangosteen heard the answer from Adam.

"Alright then" Mr. Anton stood up. "May you not make the wrong decision yes" he said meaningfully before leaving Adam's room.

At the end of office hours, Renata packed up and left the room. He passed through Adam's room and saw that the man also appeared to be packing.

Renata stopped in front of the building, pulled out a cell phone from inside the bag and called the driver. Since getting a letter from her ex-husband's child custody request, Renata has not calmed down for a long time to leave the house. Moreover, he asked for the hearing to be postponed because next week still had to go out of town for an office event that could not be left-attending the opening ceremony of the construction of the rukan with Irham and Adam. He's afraid because of it, Devan will be reckless. Renata himself is still finding out why after a long time, suddenly her ex-husband asked for custody of his child.

"What about dong sir? Oh... that's it. yes already if so let me find a taxi online only," he said lethargic when he heard from his driver if his car was still in the workshop.

"Your car is still in the workshop?" a familiar baritone voice jerked at him who was just about to order a taxi online.

"Eh, Mr. Adam..." Renata. "Yes sir, said my chauffeur should wait a few more days."

"Yes, then you go home with me" Adam offered.

Renata fell silent. He could hardly believe what he had just heard. He was happy to hear the offer. It's okay, their main road is indeed unidirectional. But the intersection that leads to Renata's house is different from the road to Adam's house. That means, Adam will turn around if he wants to go home from driving himself.

"Not even dumb?" Adam glanced at his watch.

"Aren't you talking about me?"

"Ck, you're rich, just like Ren. Yes, I have the heart to leave you who clearly need help? Let's go home, hunt for the afternoon."

"Oh e. i-iya Sir. previously thanks for the offer," replied Renata. He patted his own lips which suddenly stuttered.

"No pa-pa no sir," Renata shook his head while looking down.

Adam shook his head and walked out of the building.

Renata set her breath before finally catching up with Adam in the back with a flowery feeling.

"What Dam???" Selenia sat languidly on the sofa they used to chat every night - in the living room. They just finished enjoying dinner. This afternoon Adam sent a message to Selenia asking her not to bother cooking, because she would buy fast food after home from the office.

And tonight with a heavy heart Adam was forced to tell about the study program to Frankfurt to Selenia. He also showed me his registration form from Mr. Anton.

"I'm really confused about Cell..." Adam hung up his words. There was a lot he wanted to say, but he was confused where to start.

"Why confused?" selenia Sahut. "That's a good offer" he said, pretending to be tough. "It's also for your future, Dam."

Adam smiled a little. He looked at Selenia's face and stroked her hair gently. "Are you sure you can let me go?" tanyanya.

Selenia did not answer. He only glanced at Adam at a glance and threw his gaze at the television that was displaying the music show. It's hard for him to say yes, but it's selfish for him to say no. After all, he had no right to keep Adam from pursuing his dream.

"Why are you diem?" Adam pulls Selenia's chin.

Selenia's lips formed a small smile, but not with her eyes. "If I didn't want you to go, would you stay here?"

"Sure!" adam answered with confidence.

"Don't Dam.." said Selenia. "You can't do that. I know you really want to join that program, right?"

"Cell..dengerin I said yes," Adam cupped Selenia's face and looked into her eyes deeply. "I really wanted to join, and it was a really good program. But I have you, my wife. I wouldn't have gone if you hadn't ngizinin me."

"But that's for your future, Dam."

"Hey..." Adam still cupped Selenia's face. "My future is you."

"Daaaam...." Selenia brushed Adam's hand gently. "You don't talk about it. You should really think about this. Don't let you mrs. Opportunity doesn't come twice."

Adam's head held up hearing Selenia's statement. Why is it the same as Mr Anton once said? Opportunity does not come twice. But even though Selenia said all that, Adam could still feel that his wife was feeling heavy. Seen from the look of his eyes that look nanar and glare.

"You're ngizininin me?"

Selenia smiled wryly. And then nod. He lowered his head for a while until Adam raised his chin again.

"Are you serious?" along with the question thrown from his mouth, Adam saw a clear droplet flowing down Selenia's cheek. "Cell.... You cry?" she moved her body to Selenia and again cupped the tiny face with her hands.

Selenia wiped the tears with the back of her hand and then smiled half forcefully. "I really know about that Dam."

"What?"

"I've seen the file in your room when you were sick. And I also never accidentally heard your chat with Mama in the hospital. You guys are talking about this. You told Mama you were waiting for the right time to say this to me? And now you're finally talking to me."

Adam slowly regressed his body. Eyes squinting. Selenia knew and kept quiet?

"Why didn't you take that from the beginning Dam?" ask Selenia.

"Then you know my reason, right?" Adam held Selenia's hand.

Selenia's tears were already unbearable. The person he once hated for no reason, was willing to give up his dreams just for his sake. Although the dream has not been destroyed, and he still has a chance, but it is precisely the circumstances that make it seem difficult to step. Now that Selenia was aware, she shouldn't be a hindrance. She wanted her husband to keep his dream in sight.

"I'm not leaving if you don't let me, baby."

The word 'dear' that came out of Adam's mouth made his cry even more. Always sounds the sincerity of the word.

Selenia. "But you have to pursue your dreams Dam." he said.

"Udah stop," Adam pulled Selenia into his arms. "I talked about this which finally makes you sad. I'm not going anywhere, baby, I'll always be there for you."

"Daaam. but you have to think carefully, don't just make a decision."

Adam shakes. "Seeeel, yes, no more talking," Adam glanced at the form on the shifting table as it blew the wind from the window vents. "For now, the most important thing is me, you and our lives. Our future," he kissed Selenia's forehead several times.

Selenia did not speak anymore. She sank deeper into the depths of her husband's arms. The One That Got Away Katty Perry song slow reverb on television makes her feel more sad.
