OPEN MARRIAGES
The Part 81
Since the accident that happened to Dinda, somehow Dinda seems not too concerned with the existence of Rudi.
Likewise, Rudi seemed to keep a distance from Dinda, even though she was in the hospital almost every day.
Laura noticed the movements of her two friends lately.
When Dinda wanted to take a walk in the hospital, she asked Laura to accompany her.
"You don't get angry....! I was just wondering, is there something wrong with you and Rudi?" laura asked, while pushing Dinda's wheelchair, walking through the park.
"I don't know. There should be nothing... Indeed, Rudi is like keeping a distance from me, so I can not force him to always be near me as before" said Dinda.
"Is it possible because he still feels guilty about what happened to you?" ask Laura.
"I don't know... He also does not want to talk, but he already knows that something like this that I hate from him," said Dinda, who began to feel upset, considering Rudi's always silent behavior.
"Eh! I haven't seen Billy in days. Do you know why he didn't come?" asked Dinda, who was surprised because Billy was usually the most diligent to disturb him, but now he never appeared in front of Dinda.
"If not wrong... Rudi said Billy was going to Australia. I didn't ask Rudi why Billy was there either" Laura said.
Laura then stopped her steps, then sat down on one of the garden chairs.
Dinda was silent at Laura's words. Billy is always full of surprises. But why won't he tell me? What exactly was Billy thinking? question after question, popped up in Dinda's head.
"Alex is weird?!" chirps Laura.
Dinda looked at Laura.
"Why?" ask Dinda curious.
"He often just appears lost. Not using anything, know he's gone, suddenly it will appear again. Like something was troubling her mind" said Laura, with a sad face.
"Are you really interested in Alex?" dinda asked, furrowing her brows.
Laura nodded her head.
Dinda then smiled.
"Alex is so. At first I thought he was a strange person. But, after yesterday's incident, I found out, that Alex really likes to think about the problem himself, without wanting to tell others," Dinda explained.
"If he's acting like that, then there's something else he's thinking about" Dinda said.
"I wanted to ask, but I'm ashamed. Fearing, he thought, if I was too willing to interfere in his affairs," said Laura.
"You said you weren't interested in Alex. Nah! Can you help me get close to Alex?" Ask Laura. He looked at Dinda closely, as if he was being careful so that Dinda would help him.
Dinda nodded her head.
"Can... But later... Let's find out first what he's got. If he is still busy with his problems, then he will not care about anything we make," said Dinda.
Laura smiled broadly. He completely forgot with Eko who had become a mooring of his love all this time.
Dinda was quite happy to see Laura able to walk forward, without being influenced by the past.
"His entire life!" chirps Dinda.
"Huh? What's?" asked Laura who was confused to hear Dinda's words.
"No! The person has just been talked about, has appeared," said Dinda, pointing with her eyes.
Alex seemed to be walking towards the two girls.
Laura smiled to herself, as she looked at Alex who was getting closer to the two of them.
"Have you been sunbathing here for a long time?" ask Alex.
"Just now...!" answer Dinda.
"Well, tuh! Laura was hot, her cheeks were red" Alex said, looking at Laura.
Dinda was confused by Alex's words. She looked at Laura, then tried to hold back her laughter. It was not because of the heat, Dinda thought.
Laura was embarrassed, and she fell down.
"Where are you from, Lex?" ask Dinda.
"I'm from the police station. There's something I want to find out" said Alex, who then sat in the park seat, next to Laura.
"What?" ask Dinda again.
"No... I'm just curious about your case yesterday" said Alex.
"We don't want to say anything yet... He's still locked his mouth tight" Alex continued, staring at Dinda. He was worried that his talk would make Dinda anxious.
"Oh...! That day the police came to question me. I don't know what to say either. Maybe now Mita is also still in shock," said Dinda lightly.
"Aren't you angry with Mita?" ask Alex wonder.
"No! Billy said Mita may be depressed... So, maybe he was not aware of doing so" said Dinda again.
"So you guys think he's crazy? That so?" Alex raised his voice.
"Ok, if he's crazy. But I feel like he has something to do with the case that dragged me back to Australia... I want him to confess his actions, so I can clear my name" Alex continued, still in a high voice.
Dinda furrowed her brows. He didn't understand what Alex meant.
"Why do you think that?" ask Dinda.
"Anu... You see, I compared the case to the case that happened to you" Alex said.
"I think he hates women who get close to Billy" Alex said
"I'm close to Billy not new now! Mita knows that! It can't be because of that!" dinda said she avoided not believing.
"You know, how did Billy manage to keep Mita in the villa until we got the police on board, without her suspecting?" said Alex.
Dinda did not answer, instead looking into Alex's eyes fixedly.
"Billy let Mita control her body... Billy makes Mita believe Billy wants her!" alex said uncontrollably.
Dinda felt like crying. Mita is in love with Billy. And he thinks of Dinda as a hindrance?
Dinda felt despised for being too greedy with the love of two men. Dinda should have stayed away from Billy a long time ago. Dinda felt very guilty.
The girl bowed. Dinda was disappointed in herself.
Alex sees Dinda getting riled up because of her talk. Immediately regretted talking about it to Dinda. He has no intention of taking down Billy, he just wants Dinda to understand, why he can guess that Mita is ruining his good name abroad.
Alex and Dinda are immersed in different ideas, but no one wants to talk about it.
All were silent, including Laura who had heard Alex's conversation with Dinda. Laura did not respond to anything.
"Come, we're back in the room! I've been sweating!" said Laura, reasoned that their minds could be distracted, while pushing Dinda Wheelchair.
Dinda was just speechless, just as Alex was following them, walking back to Dinda's room.
