One Bed With Ex

One Bed With Ex
Reminiscing



"Arla, please bring me the blue map in the top cupboard!" satria said as she was busy at work staring at the computer in front of her.


The deg!


Arla's heart thumped when Satria called her name again."My name is Andini" Arla told Satria, who now holds her head with a smile.


"Oh, yes, sorry, I always say your name wrong" said Satria, Arla looking at the handsome face of the man who is still her husband status with a smile.


There was no joking laughter that he saw in Satria. His stingy attitude seemed to disappear in the swallow of the earth. Satria turned towards Arla who was fixated on looking at her.


"Why?" ask Satria softly.


"Eu..., ti-no, where was that map?" arla hurriedly looked for the blue map to any place.


Seeing Arla's wry behavior looking for a random map, Satria smiled. He finished his work, then approached Arla.


"The map is in the upper closet of Andini," Satria told Arla who was still bent on looking for a map in the drawer.


"Oh, hehe, I'm sorry I was so out of focus," Arla scratched her non-itchy nape.


"It's okay, maybe you're not used to working with me yet, I just made you an assistant for a while. Once there's a replacement, I...,"


"No need to find another assistant, I want to work every day, anyway for what just stay at home there is no work," said Arla.


"Well then, it's free huh hehe.," Satria's tease that makes Arla smile again.


"Nothing is free in this world" replied Arla reading out Satria's temptation.


"O, yes, tonight there will be a party celebration Khalisa birthday at home, after going home to work we shop first to buy your equipment, later I will take you shopping." Satria said that she loved Arla as her sister because she was willing to sacrifice her life for her mother.


"Yes," replied Arla with her sad face.


A few days ago was his birthday. But, no one knows. There was no celebration like before. Especially now that his family was no one to contact Arla anymore because the Handphone was lost when the accident occurred.


********


In the afternoon Satria was driving with Arla, who was sitting next to her. Sometimes Arla steals a glance at Satria who is so focused on driving.


"Why see me? Just realized, if your brother is handsome?" asked Satria who now turned her head while smiling at Arla who misbehaved her.


"But what? Don't worry Andini, now that we're family, I'm your brother and you're my sister, just think of me as your biological brother, so you don't hesitate when you talk" Satria explained.


"Who's Arla?" arla asked Satria who suddenly stopped her car.


Ckieett!!!


Looking at Satria who was so surprised, she turned to look at Arla. Earlier his head lowered as if there was such a heavy thing he had to say.


"He's my friend, he's been missing for a long time without any news, no matter where he is now," Satria's eyes dewed, the man smiled, wiping away the tears that had fallen.


Seeing Satria's sadness, Arla also felt it. He is the one who Satria has longed for, the one whom Satria has been thinking about. They live side by side every day but cannot reach each other.


No tears fell on his cheeks. Until the cry of pain is also an unstoppable sobbing again. Arla sobbing makes Satria come closer.


"What's wrong? Why are you crying?" tanya Satria held Arla's shoulder.


Because of such a deep longing as well as the pain in his heart that might not be healed, Arla unconsciously fell into Satria's embrace.


"I'm sorry, I'm sorry I had to pretend to disappear, I'm sorry for making you sad Satria" Arla said in her heart.


"Hey, why are you crying?" ask Satria again.


"I'm sorry, I'm reflexively curled at you, sorry," Arla took off her hug while wiping away tears.


"What's going on? Do you miss your family?" ask Satria again.


Hearing that, Arla nodded. "No, I just remember someone I miss, just like you, I miss someone I can't reach, he's a great person, he's a great person, he is someone extraordinary. But, I will never be able to reach it even if we always meet," Arla replied as she looked at Satria in a fixed and deep manner.


It was very desirable for him to confess that he was Arla, the person whom Satria had been looking for all this time. The man who is best as his wife. She even lost her baby. I really wanted all the pain she was pouring out right then and there.


But, again Arla's lips so heavy revealed it. All for their common good, he remembered how Diana had made a pact with him to never reveal everything.


"Don't cry anymore, I'm sure one day you'll be able to live with the people you care about that you mean you'll never be able to reach, nothing you can't, Andini, it's all just a matter of time, so, never cry again," Satria wiped away the tears that were still soaking Arla's cheeks.


"If only you knew Satria, if all this were not complicated, maybe we would always be together" Arla said.
