NO DIGAS ADIOS (Don't Say Goodbye)

NDA - 66-S

Adam awoke from his sleep when he heard a phone ring in the living room. He just realized that he fell asleep on the sofa last night. And when he opened his eyes this morning, he found his body wrapped in a thick blanket. It must be Bi Iyah, because it was impossible for Selenia to suddenly come home and do this to him.

"Hello" said Adam with a heavy voice. His head feels a little dizzy.

"Dam, where are you going? Why can't your number be reached?" bu Lisa's voice sounded excited at the end of the phone which immediately made Adam widen his eyes.

"Eee. Yes Ma. Last night my phone fell from the second floor and broke, "Adam replied lying.

"Oh my God Dam. How can ? Why aren't you careful?!"

"Name was unintentional, too, Ma. I will not be too busy to buy again. What's the matter Ma?"

"It's Mama's just trying to make it up if.... oh yeah, which Selenia?" Miss Lisa suddenly deflected the conversation.

Adam glanced at the large clock in the room. At 7:35 minutes.

"Selenia. e. she's gone to Ma's school, '" Adam lied again.

"From last night Mama related that she wasn't lifted at all."

"I-iya last night after dinner Selenia went straight to sleep. He said he didn't feel well, Ma" Adam bit his lips because he was forced to lie many times to his mother. "What is there to do?"

"Oh so. Jagain Selenia Dam. Be careful not to let him eat late, sick or anything. Drink lots of water."

Adam could only nod. Why does it feel like there is an inner bond. Mom called him at a time like this. Although the mother did not know the problems that were happening, but her message seemed to confirm that Adam had neglected to look after Selenia and instead made her hurt and cry.

"Mama just wanted to tell you, if the possibility of Mama and Papa will be much longer in New York. Yesterday Mama just signed a contract with one of the famous designers here, and maybe Mama will go home in about 4 or 5 months. No pa-pa, right?"

Adam took a heavy breath. His heart said 'Yes' to Miss Lisa's decision. But how else? He could not get in the way of his mother's wishes because this was also his greatest wish long ago. Working with famous designers in the Superpower is a dream that has been realized.

"Important Mama and Papa are also fine there. Take care of your health."

"Definitely darling. Yes, if so now Mama wants to dinner first with Papa. Keep seeing you."

Adam glanced back at the big clock. Oh yes, there now is night.

"Yes Ma, be careful."

"Daaagh darling. Greetings to Selenia."

Miss Lisa ended the call.

"Yes Ma" replied Adam, who was no longer heard by Lisa.

Adam was just about to get back on the couch, when the phone rang. He clucked though finally returned to answer the call that turned out to be from Mr. Anton. Just like Miss Lisa, she also asked why her number was off and again Adam had to lie by saying that his phone was damaged by falling from the second floor.

"I also want permission for this day, sir. I'm a little unwell."

"But tomorrow you have to go in. Dam. We have an important meeting with a Singapore client."

"Yes sir, fine."

After which, Adam immediately headed towards the second floor lazily. Today he does not want to do anything. Just the one he wanted so badly, talking to Selenia. But it's impossible to do it now. If you remember how Selenia reacted last night when she found out she was fighting Devan at Renata's house, it was so painful.

Tong! Tong!

The doorbell sounded when Adam reached the end of the stairs. He looked up and looked down.

"Bus!" adam called Bi Iyah. "Bukain the door Bik..!"

There is no word, while the bell keeps ringing. Finally inevitably, Adam was forced to go down and open the door. He was so excited when he saw who was coming. Mr. Fendi, in his well-groomed clothes, smiled wryly at him. How could he not even hear the roar of his in-laws car engine entering the courtyard? This matter really made his mind mess up.

"Just woke up Dam?" asked Mr. Fendi when he saw Adam who was a little messy. He also had some scars on his face, but he certainly knew the cause.

Adam was wrong. He just nodded and shook his head in confusion. "Yes... Yes, Dad. Go in first, Dad..."

Mr. Fendi entered the house along with Bi Iyah who ran scattered from the back room.

"I'm sorry Mr. Adam. Bibik was again in the toi....." Bi Iyah did not know that Mr. Fendi was coming so she immediately stopped her speech. "....let.." he continued softly while bowing respect to Mr. Fendi.

Adam gestured with a nod of his head so that Bi Iyah immediately returned to the back to make a drink.

Mr. Fendi sat on the living room sofa, followed by Adam who looked awkward and misbehaved.

"eeee.. Dad, I'm gonna go upstairs for a second, I'm gonna come back."

Mr. Fendi nodded and let. Adam then walked to his room in a hurry. Not to forget he also answered his blanket scattered on the sofa. He wants to change his clothes and wash his face. Very embarrassed to meet in-laws with a condition that is still a pillow face.

Feeling Adam said, if the arrival of Mr. Fendi here would definitely discuss the problems of his household with Selenia. Although he felt groggy, confused, and afraid, but he thought the sooner the better. Adam hopes that his father-in-law can be a mediator for himself and Selenia.

Adam went back to meet Mr. Fendi who was opening his automotive magazine. Two cups of hot tea were on the table.

"Why don't you go to Dam's office?" Mr. Fendi closed the magazine.

Adam did not answer. She's confused. Seeing that, Mr. Fendi just chuckled softly then sipped his tea a little.

"Indeed, no household trip is always smooth" said Mr. Fendi began the topic of conversation. "But that's the reality that every married couple has to face. It's not like I'm praying for the bad. But almost every year, big or small, there must be problems that come."

Adam was silent. He realized that all this trouble was happening because of him. He who can not be assertive and finally make Selenia feelings become a victim.

"Either it's an economic problem, third person, an age that may be too far apart and make both difficult to agree with..." Mr. Fendi smiled wryly. "So what's true, did Selenia tell Dad? He even talked to me about Dad. If he wants a divorce from you."

Adam immediately shook his head to hear the question. "That's not true, Dad. I will never divorce Selenia. It's all a misunderstanding. Selenia hasn't even given me time to talk and explain everything."

"Then, you can explain it to Dad right now. It's not Dad's intention to interfere in your household affairs, but...."

"Can, Dad. Sure you can," said Adam.

Adam started telling Mr. Fendi everything. She tells him about Renata's problems facing child custody demands from her ex-husband, which led her to help him get this far. Adam did that because he felt sorry for Renata who no longer had anyone. He even dared to swear that he had absolutely no special relationship with Renata.

"Then why did Selenia say, that night you had a fight with the man in front of her house?" asked Mr. Fendi with a probing look.

Adam looked down avoiding his in-laws gaze. He sighed before finally telling the true chronology.

That night, Adam was planning to knock on Selenia's door and invite her to dinner. She was overjoyed that Selenia had finally given her the opportunity to explain everything, and she did not want to waste any time. The cold war almost made him go. Work is not focused, sleep is not good, eating is also not good.

Arriving at Renata's house, he immediately blocked Devan's back which was still in front of Renata's door and finally they got into a fight. And unfortunately, Selenia knew all that. Selenia looked at the fight with her own eyes to make her assume something else than what she saw.

...🌺🌺🌺...

"Serious Ton?" cia's eyes widened to hear Tony's story. They were chatting in the park during the break "So that means..." Cia dinginukan's. "...the secret of both of them?"

Tony smiled wryly and nodded. "Udah long time."

"Seriously? Know where?" Cia is widening her eyeballs.

Tony pointed to his own eyes and ears. Cia still did not understand that answer and frowned.

"I was horrified and saw Cia myself" Tony made it clear. "You guys have talked about husbands here, right?"

Cia's eyes looked up at the sign of remembering something. And in the end he was only able to remember a little. Not sure when.

"That time if it's not wrong after my birthday, and Selenia told me about Adam's closeness with Renata during the party."

"OK stop!" Cia pointed her palm like she was giving a warning.

"So how's the story going? Is Adam really that rich?!" Cia crossed her hands on her chest with a deep nose. "Pantes aja I WA Selenia not responded at all. Also read not. Turns out his phone was left."

"Yes that's it..." Tony only recounts the moment Selenia got out of the house and met her - he didn't tell her why she went to Selenia's house and stopped there for a long time - then followed Adam until Renata's house came to the end selenia finally saw the fight.

"And he didn't want me to come back to Adam's house. He wants to go to his father's house" he shrugged his shoulders.

"That's Adam!" Cia clenched her fists. "Then what I saw in Greenosh wasn't wrong. So they really have a relationship?" muttered.

"What Ci?" tony's eyes widened. He remembers the events at Greenosh. "Greenosh?"

Cia's lips pouted. "Yes. So that time I accidentally saw him in Greenosh just as Renata again ate together. And I kept making videos, and the video I was taking a look at Selenia," and she suddenly knocked on her own head. "Ogeb isn't it me? Indirectly it means I make Selenia hurt as well.. hhheeeeee.." whining.

Tony mangosteen. Now she knows where Selenia got the video from. It also made Adam think that he was the one who had shown the video to Selenia. Did Selenia get it from Cia?

"You're not wrong Ci. Selenia must know Adam's rot. Let's not be silly!" Tony.

"Eh but if it's not wrong, I think at that time I also saw you there deh. Outside of Greenosh, isn't it?"

"Ohhh yeah, I came home from basecamp, kept laper, kept stopping by. But because it's soaking wet so you can't go in with the officers," said Tony lying.

"And you see them too?"

"Not so attentive," Tony shook his head.

"Ughh! Oh, fuck Adam. I'm so cute!!" Cia slammed her fist into her own palm.

"Where is the story that they got married to Ci?" ask Tony then. "Kasian knew Selenia last night. He seems to be hit hard."

Cia looked at Tony long ago. There was a hint of doubt at the bottom of his heart to tell her the secret marriage. He was afraid that this secret would spread. And if the school finds out, Selenia can be expelled. The pity. They're only a few months away from High School.

"If you don't believe in me, I don't understand Ci" Tony said.

"Not that Ton. e.. yes... so gini..." Cia told me as she knew it. The main reason the marriage happened was because of the last request of Mama Selenia.

Tony mangosteen. "So they're just marrying siri?"

Cia nodded. "Status Selenia is still a student. It may be an official marriage. Can't get Ton yet..."

Pantes only marital status in CV Adam read Tony at that time the description was single. Tony understands now. And he assumed that Adam was abusing his status for his own sake. By being able to date Renata, having fun behind Selenia with Renata and Selenia just as her outlet when at home. So mean!

...🌺🌺🌺...

Mr. Fendi was relieved after hearing the story from Adam. From the beginning he had already guessed that all this was just a misunderstanding.

"Now I think everything is clear, Dam. I believe you won't do that, and I hope you never will." Mr. Fendi finished his tea.

"When can I talk to Selenia Well?" asked Adam with a gloomy face.

"Let me talk to Selenia, Dam. You will know for yourself, a child of Selenia's age is difficult easy to take his heart. But I'm gonna try to explain what you told him."

Adam looked sad. He felt very disappointed. When will he have to wait?

"So Selenia also told me to get her cell phone, uniform, school book and some of her needs."

"Why Dad?" Adam looked at Mr. Fendi gamang.

"Selenia said she'd stay with Dad for a few days. He said he needed time to calm down. No pa-pa, right?"

Adam breathed a heavy sigh. That means he has to hold on to all the longing and wait for the opportunity even longer. Oh my God.. Why is this so?

"B-well Well." he said resignedly.

With the help of Bi Iyah, Mr. Fendi packed some of Selenia's belongings and put them in a suitcase. Bi Iyah even did it while crying. The atmosphere suddenly felt so quiet and silent. Adam was only able to observe the activity of packing his in-laws and aides from the doorway of Selenia's room. It was the hardest day he felt.

It felt very weak to see Mr. Fendi come out of Selenia's room while pulling a suitcase. Along with that, all the memories they had passed through during their stay together in this house were milling around in Adam's head. All of them flashed like endless roll films.

Memories of Selenia and Adam's birthday leave the cake at the door, as Adam enters the hospital and feels Selenia's attitude begins to change, memories of Selenia getting angry are about to attend Tony's birthday party because she knows he's leaving with Renata. Memories of Adam giving Selenia a surprise at the airport when picking up her father. And all the things they've been through together in this house.

"Please Dam," Mr. Fendi patted Adam on the shoulder. "Hope you two get through this."

"Thank you Dad," Adam's voice sounded hoarse. His throat was dry as if he was holding back from speaking anymore.

Just enjoy it all, Dam. It's your own result. A voice from inside his heart sounded faint.

After putting the suitcase in the trunk, Mr. Fendi immediately left Adam's house.

Adam turned to want to enter the house when he found Bi Iyah who was still crying sobbing in the doorway. Several times he wiped away tears with the tip of the negligee he was wearing. Seeing this, Adam's heart became more and more sick. He simply shook his head and immediately passed past Bi Iyah.

Bi Iyah had been quietly listening to the conversation of Adam and Mr. Fendi. He was shocked to learn what had made the two masters of the cold war over the past few days. But he had absolutely no idea that it would all end like today. What happens if Miss Lisa finds out about this? He must be much sadder than he is.
