NO DIGAS ADIOS (Don't Say Goodbye)

NDA - 90-A

Cia patiently accompanied Selenia who went in and out of one store to another store inside the mall. They are looking for what gifts are suitable to be given to three-year-olds. Yes, this afternoon Adam called Selenia, told her about Nola's birthday invitation. Therefore, on her own initiative, Selenia decided to look for gifts after school. Because if you have to wait for Adam to come home from work, it must be a chore. And if the card's nyari is in a hurry, surely it will not be satisfactory. Selenia is indeed a selective person for things that will be given to others.

"It's funny Ci..." Selenia pulls one of the children's clothes with a funny motif.

"If I think mending don't wear a cell suit," Cia took the shirt from Selenia's hand and put it back in place. "Lo will not know for sure the size of his child how, afraid it will not fit or even kegedean not funny."

"Hmmm, okay," this time Selenia nurut. "Yes, we've been looking at another store, yuk" he pulled Cia's hand out of the store.

Cia can only resign and shake his head. Upon entering the pink shop with a wall of typical children's cartoons, he thought this was the last place Selenia made her choice. He's tired of bangeeeet.

And Cia's hope is fulfilled. Just browsing through one shelf, Selenia had already gotten what she wanted. A Little Chef Kitchen Set with complete stuffing in it. After believing that nothing will be purchased again, they then pay at the cashier.

"Sir, can you in the wrapping of wrapping paper?" selenia asked the cashier.

"Oh can mbak. But I have to wait a moment, because my friend is still in the toilet," replied the cashier friendly.

"Alright, if that's what I'm waiting for there huh," Selenia pointed to the empty seat near the entrance of the shop.

Fyuhh.... Cia breathing relieved. The two of them waited on the chair at the end of the shop while observing the passers-by. Shortly after, a shop attendant who had gone to the toilet came with a woman behind him. At a glance, Selenia was so familiar with the woman. He walked in a wooden style while looking around the mall before entering the store. Until finally the gaze of the woman's eyes met Selenia who was actually melengos, avoiding her gaze.

"Lho you know.." the woman was Doctor Lula, the person who handled Selenia at the clinic at the time of the accident. "Eh... This is the sweet kid why is it here?" tanyanya sok familiar. If you are not wearing the typical costume of the doctor like now, it is appropriate that he behaves like this.

Hoek! Selenia felt like vomiting hearing her attitude. But he tried to smile as gently as possible. Cia of course was surprised to see this woman because it was the first time.

"Eh... Doctor Lula, how are you?" ask Selenia.

"I'm good. How about yourself? Why isn't her stomach yet? How many days have we not seen you?" doctor Lula's hand came from nyosor to Selenia's stomach and stroked her for a while.

It made Selenia glare because some people who passed around did not miss her gaze towards them to hear Doctor Lula's curse. How not? Those people must be thinking negativ, right? Where he still makes school uniforms again. Are you still pregnant in school? Maybe more or less like that the meaning of each of those gazes.

And so is Cia. He who doesn't know anything about Doctor Lula can only cry.

"Ups!" Lula's doctor covered her mouth in a wooden style. "I'm sorry, I like this kind of slipping sometimes" she lowered her tone. "So how? Have you talked to your boyfriend?"

Selenia nodded quickly. "Already Doc. I've spoken, "Bodo really should lie to him. Why the hell is this Doctor really kepo.

"When do you want to check? Pregnant people should routinely check you know, let know how the condition and development of the fetus," said Doctor Lula with a hand that returned nyosor to the stomach Selenia. "Your legs are fine too, right??"

Selenia retreated a little. "Eee yes Doc. later I will definitely check. Calm down" he answered. "My legs are also good, the proof is that I can walk here."

Doctor Lula sniggered. So also with Cia, more to because it is funny and ilfil to see the behavior of the middle-aged woman.

"Oh yeah, how did you know in the early days of pregnancy? Nausea? Difficult sleeping? Like suddenly wanting something?" cerocos Doctor Lula without caring for Selenia's expression who already wanted to leave from before him.

"Regular, Doc. Nausea is not fussy."

"Hmmm..." Doctor Lula flicked her hair behind her ear. "I really salute you" he brought his head closer to Selenia's ear and whispered.

"Udah knows pregnant, still reckless school," he added then followed by a laugh.

This is Doctor why? The feeling itself. Selenia bergidig heard her whisper and only smiled half forcedly.

"Mr's everything is ready" a store clerk told Selenia.

Thanks God! Pekik Selenia in the heart.

"So, I'm first!" Selenia goes into the store to pick up her things, then comes out again and immediately takes Cia away from the presence of Doctor Lula.

"Hey.. careful baby..." Lula's doctor twisted the body, watching Selenia and her friend drift apart. "Hmmm basic millennial kids," she shook her head.

Arriving in the car, Selenia immediately flung her body and breathed a sigh of relief. Cia herself still did not stop curious, until finally Selenia told the beginning of the story how she could get to know Doctor Lula-fixed by hiding about her pregnancy because there was Pak Tono who was driving in front. It was only after hearing the story that Cia's laughter exploded inside the car. But still Selenia did not laugh because she still felt arrogant with Doctor Lula's attitude. He could have talked about pregnancy while holding his stomach in a public place. Where more people fit.

They arrived in front of Cia's house just as Selenia's watch hand pointed at the number 03.00. Cia squirms flexing her muscles before removing her seat belt. As his eyes looked at the porch of the house and found his special figure chatting with Aldo, his smile widened.

"Where are you going?" Selenia glanced before Cia came out.

"Not anywhere. Marvin used to play at home. Our house is a cell deck," Cia pointed at the row of Marvin's house in front.

Selenia sneers. "Lying." he wasn't sure if they'd be home today. Marvin looks pretty neat.

Cia grinning the horse. "I went down first, yes" he opened the door and walked out. Before leaving, he tapped on the windshield of the car, which Selenia took down from the inside. "Have fun ya. Byeee.." his hand waved.

"Thanks also yes Ci, already looking for a gift."

Cia nodded and then tiptoed over with a centile entering her yard.

"Hey iakaang? Have you been waiting for long?" there was a gentle and carefree greeting of Cia to Marvin before Selenia passed.

"Bas a boy," muttered Selenia.

...🌺🌺🌺...

Selenia stood in front of the mirror, self-styled in a pair of jeans and a Renata T-shirt. Tonight he and Adam agreed to wear the shirt. After finishing polishing the thin makeup on his face, he then revealed his shirt to the top of the navel and looked at his stomach from the mirror reflection. He could not stop smiling every time he saw that stomach. Getting pregnant? Sometimes he still does not believe that there is a fruit of his love with Adam.

"Are you ready, baby?" Adam suddenly entered the room while Selenia was still asleep with her stomach. That made Adam growl. "What are you doing, baby?" he walked up to Selenia and kissed her forehead softly.

Selenia hurriedly lowered her t-shirt. So surprised. She pretended to comb her hair with her fingers because of her misbehavior. At that moment, Adam hugged her from behind and stared at the mirror. He smiled looking at the two shadows there, making Selenia even more misbehaving. They both looked so harmonious, supported by the T-shirt couple they wore.

"Love you baby" whispered Adam in Selenia's ear.

Selenia closed her eyes, holding back the tickle from Adam's breathing in her ears. "Love you too, Adam." she replied in a whisper.

Adam stretched his arms and twisted Selenia's body. The sweet face was fixed, with both hands cupped on Selenia's cheeks. He loved this ABG girl very much and did not want to lose her. Then gently, Adam pressed his lips against Selenia's lips. They kissed in a calm and old atmosphere....

"Dw...." Selenia hissed after their kiss ended.

"Yes baby?"

Adam smiled and stroked Selenia's hair gently. "Yuk."

They came out of the room with their hands clasping each other.

...🌺🌺🌺...

Although not having a party by inviting many people, Renata house still looks the brightest from other houses around it. When Adam and Selenia got there, there was a car parked in the yard. Adam's forehead shriveled. He knows whose car it is. So Renata invited Devan too?

Shortly after Adam's car engine died, Renata came out holding Nola and waved to Selenia and Adam who just got out of the car.

"Well that's the Oomnya coming," Renata waved Nola's hand and the boy shouted in excitement. "Where did my dear say it? Sheyamat mayam Oom.." her broom mimics Nola's style of speaking.

Selenia giggles at the name Oom addressed to her husband.

"It turns out your husband is Oom-oom, yes" Adam whispered as he grabbed Selenia's shoulder.

Selenia nudged Adam's waist. They walked to Renata and Nola, who were laughing and welcoming them. Then when it was close, Nola raised both hands because she asked Adam to carry them.

Renata smiled bitterly and turned her gaze to Selenia, intending to ask for permission, whether it would be okay if Nola asked Adam's sling. Out of her expectations Selenia turned out to nod.

...With Nola 😊...

...(assume that her hair is not blond, yes 😌)...

Selenia had indeed thrown away her bad thoughts about Renata. There is not a single shred of uncomfortable feeling when seeing Adam's familiarity with Nola. Unlike the past, now he is happy to see Adam who is so Dadyable really when holding Nola. Then imagine how beautiful their little family would be after Adam junior was born. Pssst... resistant Cell.

Selenia always fails to hold a smile every remember that. Fortunately, both Renata and Adam did not pay much attention to his actions.

"It's for Nola yeah.happy birthday sweet boy...!" Selenia gives her card and pinches Nola's gaunty cheek.

The gift was too big for Nola, so Selenia handed it to Renata.

"Welcome to our house." said Renata upon arrival at the party room. "There's my ex-husband inside, too" she whispered later, more to keep Devan from hearing the sentence.

Selenia's breath was restrained when she saw someone who had been sitting on one of the chairs in the Little Pony-themed room. The man threw a pushy smile at him and Adam. She's Renata's ex-husband? Then this guy who used to terrorize me and make me wretched?

Selenia looked away from Devan's look which she thought was creepy. He grabbed Adam's arm even tighter. Heart's pounding. Terror until the accident flashed in his head. Adam who is sensitive to what Selenia feels this time, gives Nola to Renata then rubs Selenia's shoulder slowly, trying to calm down.

So too with Renata. He who saw the look of fear from Selenia's eyes when he saw Devan was here, immediately felt guilty.

"Mr Amiii...." Renata called Baby sitter Nola who was struggling.

"Titip Nola bentar ya mbak," Renata told Mbak Ami. "Yuk come with me to the back for a moment" he asked Selenia.

Selenia releases her gambit from Adam's arm, and walks after Renata.

"Cell, I'm sorry that my ex-husband's whereabouts don't make you comfortable" Renata said. "I know, what he did to you first must have traumatized you. But. for tonight I couldn't if I didn't bring him here. Because..this is his son's birthday."

Selenia gulps. The carcass feels dry and the chest feels a little tight. He was afraid of a pannic attack. But then try to take a deep breath and exhale slowly.

"You don't have to be scared or worried" Renata said. "Devan is a travel hobbyist. So being a city prisoner was the right punishment to keep him a deterrent at the moment. Hopefully."

Selenia just nodded. What else would he say? He came here for his son's birthday, right?

For a while Renata looked at Selenia from top to toe before inviting her back to the party room. She seemed to see a different change from Selenia's body. Selenia looks more. Or maybe because they never met?

"Why do you think I'm rich?" chirper Selenia.

"Ohhh no. You are. beautiful in that T-shirt," replied Renata. Because there's no way he'll say, you look fatter huh. That sentence is a scourge for every woman who always wants to keep up appearances. "Especially the couplean same Mr. Adam, so it looks more harmonious."

"Hhhh. Thanks for the T-shirt."

"Yes ahead yuk," Renata held Selenia's hand. "Later down Nola sleeps to blow up the candle."

When they returned to the room, Devan and Adam were sitting far apart without talking to each other. Seen once the discomfort of both.

...🌺🌺🌺...

"Nyokap you've regretted everything he's done. Will you also stay like this Ton? Stubborn and not open your heart? He's Lo Nyokap, Ton. The man who grieved. And until anytime there will be no such thing as a former child or former mother. I'm not trusting anyone. But you still want what I once said was the same lo, about the use of a friend. I know, I'm not your best friend right now, but at least I've been a part of your past. We used to be a school, a team, playmates. I once knew how disappointed you were when Nyokap lo did not come to your 16th birthday event. And I've also seen you secretly crying in the toilet because of that, right? So now you want to wait especially Ton? Lo misses him but also hates because you think he could leave the family for his ego. Opportunities don't always come twice, Ton. Now please just drown out a little bit of your ego. If Nyokap lo alone can realize all his mistakes and want to apologize to you, why can't you open your heart? Don't be sorry when it's too late. Because it's just gonna be a heartache that never ends."

Tony pondered in his room, clutching a pillow. He remembered every word Marvin said when he talked about his mother this afternoon. Star hill. Did her mother come to that place? Has he been there all this time? Is it true that he never forgot me? But why for almost 10 years has he never come to see me?

"His new husband turned out to be not as good as when they were not married. He has a hidden plan behind his sweet attitude. Bokap you must have told me the same reason Nyokap lo asked for a divorce from him?"

Mama gets less attention from Papa because Papa is too busy working. Your mama met someone who could give you what Papa couldn't. Timing. The words Mr. Anton once uttered ring in Tony's ear.

"She strictly forbids you to meet her ex-husband again, especially to see you. He also casually used almost all the treasures you had for his own pleasure. You know what that means?...... You can ask Cia how the fishermen nyokap lo when telling everything. If you can still open your heart, you can call me. I know where you live."

Tony's tears didn't fall. Is that that bad he? Tony wiped his tears. And then his phone rings. It turns out from Petra who reported that his team only got runners up in online gaming tournaments this season.

"No pa-pa, next time you have to practice again" he said flatly without expression.

This time, the news of his team's defeat was no longer something sad for Tony.

After his chat with Petra was over, he then sent a message to Marvin.

Tony: [Where can I see you?]

Marvin: [Tomorrow home from school I wait in front]
