Not the Bride of Choice

End of Story

The age-eaten dried leaves fell on the ground, the wind blowing cools everyone who is now standing around the still-wet vortex.

The sound of Nara and Hesti's cries continued to echo, still not expecting that the Queen had left them all.

But since then a guy just fell silent in silence, lowering his head to hold back the crying so as not to break. Mama Medina continued to stroke Gavin's shoulder to give him strength.

The toughest thing in Gavin's life is losing the woman he cares about so much, he never even dreamed of losing Queen so soon.

"I'm sorry, Papa ! Papa hasn't even made up for all Papa's mistakes, but you've gone very far" Aaron's voice trembled, trying to put on a painful smile as he sprinkled roses onto the still-wet earth mound.

"Now you will not be sick again, and now you have met your mother, please apologize Papa for not being able to take care of you" Aaron opened his voice, making everyone there drift in sadness.

On the other hand, Nesti chose silent a thousand languages, Queen was his favorite child all along. And he knew very well how Aaron tortured the woman while she was alive. It felt like he had cursed Harun at this moment, but as much as he could bear it..

"You must be strong, boy ! your wife is calm there" Mama Medina muttered softly beside her son's body.

Gavin did not answer, his head kept his head down and his hands tightly grasped the signboard that read QUEENARA GANTARI. The woman he once hated so much and now managed to make Gavin love die.

"Learn to be sincere, son!, Mama know this is heavy, but you must know that every human being will return to the creator" said Mama Medina again.

Gavin shakes his head, it's not easy for him to shake Queen. There are still many dreams and dreams that have not been achieved with the woman.

A few seconds later, the originally bright sky had now turned gray. Rain spots one by one fell soaking up the new soil. Everyone was already standing about to leave the cemetery, except for Gavin, the man was still sitting next to the wife's navel.

"Let's go home, it will soon rain heavily" asked Mama Medina.

Again and again Gavin did not answer, as if he cared for the ear of every word that everyone said.

"Truely said your Mama Vin ! tomorrow here again, now go home first because it will rain hard. Queen will definitely not like to see you kek gini" said Nara using a raucous voice.

Gavin looked up, staring at everyone's faces one by one. A thousand times he explained how the pain everyone would not understand.

Taking a deep breath, Gavin stared at the signboard again. His index finger stroked the carving of that beautiful name.

"No one will be able to replace you dear" he said in a hoarse voice.

"Whatever perfect woman is out there, to me you're still the best"

"Wait for me there, I'll definitely catch up"

Time passes so quickly, days change. It doesn't feel like 3 months have passed. Such a pleasant day had now turned into nothingness for a Gavin.

Since the departure of his wife 3 months ago, the man has more often locked himself in the room. Even the company has never. He currently lives in the home of his parents.

When she saw the condition of Gavin who looked thin and unkempt, Mama Medina brought her only son to the main house. He could not bear to see Gavin's condition like this.

"Dear dear, it's so hard to let go of you"

Gavin's fingers again swiped the phone's screen, reading every message Queen had ever sent. Even not infrequently Gavin sends a message to the number, although it will never get a reply but for Gavin this way to let go of longing.

Tock-tock.

The door to the room was knocked from the outside, then pushed to show Mama Medina standing up while carrying a tray filled with food for Gavin.

The middle-aged woman walked over, and placed the tray on the nightstand, and sat down on Gavin's bedside.

"Eat first son !" mama Medini.

"I'm not hungry yet Ma, today I want to take Queen for a walk" Gavin replied.

Mama Medina took a deep breath, and her heart felt pain at Gavin's response.

"You don't forget that Queen doesn't exist"

In that instant the clear liquid dripped down Gavin's cheeks, he sometimes forgot that his wife was gone. The departure of Queen completely ruined her life.

"I miss Ma with Queen" said Gavin

"Dear Mama knows, but you don't keep going, you have to keep going"

It's easy to talk, but to go through is very difficult. Queen is a precious treasure in Gavin's life, the woman managed to turn her hatred into a great love.
