OPEN MARRIAGES
Part 45's
Coffee shop near the playground so their choice to sit around.
After ordering three cups of coffee and a snack, they started chatting there.
Dinda could not help her curiosity.
"What was that?" ask Dinda to Mita
"Aren't you married to Dovi?" ask Dinda again.
Mita breathed her heavy.
"I got married to Dovi." replied Mita.
"Well, what are you doing?" ask Dinda again
Mita looked at Dinda and Laura's eyes in turn.
"I found Dovi cheating. So rather than divorce, Dovi and I agreed to open marriage" Mita replied.
Dinda massaged his forehead. He remembers Billy, it's Mita again.
What's with these people? why choose this strange wedding concept? why does marriage seem meaningless, just a note on paper? Chief Dinda was full of questions.
She looked at Laura.
As if understanding Dinda's intentions, Laura simply shrugged her shoulders. He doesn't know.
Dinda did not want to think too much about it, her head was dizzy.
"When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me?" tanya Dinda switched the conversation.
"I arrived this morning. I went to your house this afternoon, but there was only Inah's mom, she said you went to work. I thought later tonight after taking my boyfriend out last night, and then I went to your house again" said Mita
Dinda is still confused about what else to say, in her head still thinking about the concept of open marriage, which is chosen by people close to her.
Not yet Dinda said anything else, Mita's boyfriend approached, and whispered something in Mita's ear.
"I go first! Later if I come home not too late, I stop at your house. Or gini, I'll contact you later. Here's your phone number! Your old number that I saved, is no longer active," said Mita in a hurry.
"Huh? Uh, jerk!" Dinda.
After Dinda told Mita her phone number, Mita stood up and walked away with the man.
Dinda saw the man embrace Mita's waist. While Mita leaned in the arms of the man. They both look good.
Dinda took a long breath.
"Open marriage?" ask Laura.
"It's exciting, anyway!" said Laura lightly.
"Huh? You kidding?" ask Dinda wonder.
"Gini loh Din, you see me, right? As long as you know me, have you ever seen me close to another man, other than Eko?" ask Laura.
Dinda shakes.
"Eko has always been around in my life. I never got a chance to know another man. Later, I used to come with my Papa out of town.
Without Eko around me, I met several other men who quite caught my attention.
I'm not cheating, I just feel like I'm in too much of a hurry to choose Eko. There are still many other men who seem to be much better than him.
This makes me feel hesitant to get married, but I also have no intention of parting with Eko forever...
I still love him, even though I can feel attracted to other men" Laura explained
"If I am now married to that concept, I can get to know other people without having to separate from Eko" he continued.
Dinda speechless. His head feels more dizzy. A little in Dinda's heart there was a sense of understanding with Laura's wishes, but still she still felt strange.
Dinda was raised by her parents who loved each other, completely faithful until the end of their lives. Dinda felt that the concept of marriage was unnatural.
"Trus?! Now how do you want?" ask Laura.
"Hmmm... I don't know" Laura replied.
They drank their coffee orders earlier while eating snacks. They enjoyed the live music at the venue, without chatting anymore. Both locked their mouths tightly.
When it felt late enough, Dinda then took Laura home.
"If I go fittings again, you can accompany me right?" laura asked as she got out of Dinda's car.
"Yes. You'll call me later, okay?!" answer Dinda
Laura then got into her car. They both split up the road.
Dinda arrived at her house. Her body just felt tired. Drown into his room and lie down. I think he took a shower. But as her body felt sticky with sweat, Dinda finally went to clean up.
Still in his bathrobe, Dinda sees his cell phone ringing, a call coming in from Billy. There was no long call from Rudi. The call from the two people was like alternating, but Dinda did not ignore.
Mita's on the street of a housing complex. Mita said that she would come straight to Dinda's house.
Dinda hurriedly put on her clothes. He was wearing a shirt and shorts.
When Dinda opened the front door, a car light was seen shining on the street in front of Dinda's house.
The car stopped, Mita got out of the car and waved her hand. The car passed away.
Mita turned to face Dinda's house.
Dinda followed up to the gate. The two walked together into Dinda's house.
In Dinda's room, Mbok Inah delivered two glasses of juice placed on a table beside the bed.
"How are you?" mita asked open their conversation in the room.
"I'm fine." answered Dinda flatly.
"I'm sorry I didn't get here when your parents died" Mita said.
The girl already knows what happened to Dinda's parents. Mita's parents have told Mita, when Mita was still in Australia.
"Neverything... Don't talk about it, I know! Your parents came here. They've explained it to me" said Dinda
"How are you with Dovi now?" ask Dinda
"Hmmm..." Mita muttering
"Do you want a story?" ask Dinda.
Mita nodded.
"A few months after we left, we got married there, while still in college. The show is simple, just the closest family. It was okay at first.
Until about two years passed...
Dovi suddenly changed. He often found a reason to be angry with me. He always provoked a fight between us" Mita let out a long sigh.
"At first, I didn't think he was cheating. I really didn't know intentionally. I missed my book in the study room on campus. I came back to get it.
I heard a sigh*h sound from the balcony above me. When I saw her, Dovi was smirking another woman's neck, "this time Mita's tears began to flow on her face. Mita wiped her tears.
"I shouted to Dovi, he saw me. But still, he continued to do so, even though he knew I was there. When he met me at the apartment, he apologized...
He said he was under the influence of drugs, which the woman gave him" Mita took a deep breath. Her tears stopped flowing.
"I still love him, I don't want to part with him. So I forgive him. He cheated many times, I know. But I still don't want to take it off...
"About a year ago, I met Billy. I told you about Dovi. Billy told me about his wedding." said Mita suddenly stopped, she looked at Dinda.
She looked back at Mita.
"Continue?" ask Dinda.
"Do you know Billy's married?" Mita asked back.
"It's over!" answer Dinda
"Have you met Billy or not? He came back here a few months ago" asked Mita again.
"It's over!"
"Did he tell you about his wedding? I followed that concept, rather than getting divorced from Dovi. I'm not ready!"
Dinda just stared at Mita.
"The guy that was with me, it was just a distraction. Just for s*x," said Mita.
"Your parents know?" ask Dinda.
"No, they don't know. Now they're out of town, next week they're back. Later, I also returned to Australia. I'm just here to refresh,"
Dinda was silent for a moment. Something was going on in his mind.
"You said you get s*x with him. Trus are you still making s*x with Dovi?" finally, he could ask what made him curious.
Mita laughed, looking at the timid Dinda as she asked.
"Still! Even with the current situation, we never fought again. Dovi became more friendly, and excited when he did it with me" Mita said
***
Mita's gone home. They promised that tomorrow afternoon Mita would go to Dinda's house again
Dinda still thinks about what Mita said.
Ahhh... Stupids. Dinda turned off her cell phone power, she still didn't want to be bothered again that night. He then fell asleep.
