Not Just a Status

Not Just a Status
48. Pardon me!



"Don't be here, Yang! We're talking in the cafe up front, yuk! Please, just a minute!"pinta Yudha is hopeful.


"OKAY. But not for too long, yeah! I haven't left my son for too long," said Kahyang after thinking for a while. However, Kahyang indeed had to talk to Yudha so that the young man who seemed still hoping their relationship could return could soon move on.


Soon they were sitting in a cafe in front of the campus. They were sitting in a corner of the cafe that not too many were sitting there. Because more choose to sit near the front glass wall, in order to see the situation outside the cafe.


"Say," said Kahyang as they had just sat down.


"We order something first for a chatter buddy" Yudha said as she reached for the menu book on the table.


"I don't have much time, Jud! I have to get home!"press Kahyang who is indeed worried about his son. Because only this time Kahyang left his son for a long time.


"All right, I'll just order a drink. Not good, right, if you just sit around don't order anything?"yudha's words made Kahyang sigh. A cafe waiter approached them and asked for their order.


"What do you want to order, Yang?"ask Yudha.


"You alone, I don't need to," said Kahyang who looks unsettled because he wants to go home soon.


"Then, lemon tea is two," Yudha said to the cafe waiter.


"Say!"pinta Kahyang after the servant had left, looked impatiently waiting for Yudha to speak.


"Sorry before. During my cafe's birthday, I overheard your quarrel with your husband in front of my cafe toilet. From there, I know that you and your husband are married only by status. Just for the sake of the child in your womb.I also heard that you will get divorced after you give birth. Is that true?"yudha asked cautiously, fearing Kahyang being offended.


Kahyang was surprised to hear Yudha's words, but immediately hidden her. Kahyang did not expect if his quarrel with Mandala at that time heard Yudha. Kahyang looked at Yudha, the man he had once loved. But for some reason now there is not the slightest taste in Yudha, other than the awkward feeling of meeting.


"I'm sorry, it's my personal business with my husband. I don't want to clarify anything to others about my household" replied Kahyang who somehow felt dislike for others knowing his agreement with Mandala, even though that person was Yudha.


"Excuse me!"said the waiter put down a drink ordered by Yudha, "Please drink it!"the waiter said it was polite.


"Thank you!"yudha and Kahyang said at the same time, and the servant left immediately.


"I still love you like I used to. If it's true that you're going to divorce your husband, I'm willing to marry you, Yang! I'm willing to be the father of your son. I can't forget you, Yang. I still love you" said Yudha, grabbing Kahyang's hand and holding it.


Kahyang pulled his hand slowly, making Yudha feel disappointed. The woman then let out a long sigh,"Sorry, Yud! I don't want to be separated from my husband. I love him, "say Kahyang honestly, "If there's nothing to talk about anymore, I'm gone,"kahyang then moved from his seat without waiting for a reply from Yudha and rushed out of the cafe without touching the drink that Yudha had ordered.


Although Kahyang knew that these words would hurt Yudha deeply, Kahyang had to say them anyway. Kahyang did not want Yudha to continue to hope in him. He no longer loved Yudha, but he loved Mandala. Although the day he and Mandala parted will soon come, Kahyang cannot take Mandala out of his heart. Therefore, Kahyang could not accept Yudha's feelings anymore, let alone accept Yudha as her husband to replace Mandala. Kahyang did not want to make Yudha his place of escape.


Yudha was stunned for a while. It seemed that Yudha could not believe that Kahyang currently loved her husband and did not love her anymore. How quickly did Kahyang forget himself who had been his girlfriend for several years? And love someone he's only known for a few months? Yudha got up from her seat, then placed the blue money on the table and rushed after Kahyang.


"Yes! Wait!"call Yudha running after Kahyang and holding Kahyang's hand, "Do you not love me anymore?"asked Yudha with an indecipherable look.


"Sorry! My heart no longer loves you. I love.my husband. Pardon me! Find another woman who is more worthy of you and loves you. I can no longer love you. Sorry!"kahyang let go of Yudha's hand and walked away from Yudha.


"I still love you? You can come back to me whenever you want!"yudha shouted still not giving up.


Kahyang did not look back or answer Yudha's question. The young woman just lowered her legs, leaving Yudha. While Yudha was silent in his place staring at Kahyang's departure with a broken feeling. It turns out that the person she loves no longer loves her.


Tinn! Tinn!


The sound of the car horn made Kahyang raise his face. The woman saw a Mandala car parked on the side of the road. Kahyang also ran a small approach to the Mandala car and rushed in.


"That car again? Is that Kahyang's husband's car? Is it true that Kahyang no longer loves me and now loves her husband?"murmured Yudha who saw Kahyang get into the car he knew often drove and picked up Kahyang.


Kahyang immediately put on his seat belt and Mandala immediately drove his car. Mandala just shut up and focused on seeing the highway without saying a word to Kahyang.


"Man, that was me and Yudha. "say Kahyang was nervous, feeling guilty and confused about what to say. Kahyang felt like he was having an affair when he met another man without Mandala's knowledge.


"It's okay," Sahut Mandala turned a glance towards Kahyang while smiling faintly.


But is it really okay? Actuallyno. When Mandala wants to pick up Kahyang, Mandala first sees the position of Kahyang from the GPS installed in the Kahyang ring. Mandala can make sure if Kahyang is in the cafe in front of the campus where Kahyang studied. When Mandala was about to call Kahyang, Kahyang suddenly came out of the cafe. Mandala was surprised when Yudha also came out of the cafe chasing Kahyang, even holding Kahyang's hand. Of jealousy? Sure oes. But Mandala held him back, even covering him from Kahyang. Mandala realized, soon she would not be able to keep Kahyang. Soon she will marry a woman who is betrothed by her parents. Therefore, Mandala will not prohibit Kahyang from connecting with anyone.


All the way home, Kahyang was silent. Confused as to how and what to say. Same with Mandala. Every now and then Kahyang glanced at the Mandala who was driving quietly. The man's expression seemed ordinary. Eventually they arrived at their apartment.


Kahyang rushed to clean up before touching his son who was in Bik Mar's car. While Mandala waited for Kahyang finished bathing while working with his laptop. After Kahyang finished bathing, Mandala rushed into the bathroom.


When Mandala came out of the bathroom, Kahyang seemed to be holding Rayno who had just finished breastfeeding. The one-month-old baby appears to start sleepy after the feeding earlier.


"Man, it was me and Yudha..."


...🌟"True love should not have.🌟...


...🌟That sentence sounds poetic and romantic. But make the chest feel tight and the heart cry."🌟...
