Lack of emotion, yes, still fasting because. Or read it when it is open.
Happy reading^^^^
“From the many people you can meet, and you choose to meet me?” tanya Nabila couldn't believe it.
In front of him now there is Richard who said he had just returned from Germany and said he would settle again in Jakarta. This man should have met Dimitri or any friend he knew, instead of meeting Nabila like this. It's nothing, it's just that he wasn't that close to talking to Richard, and Richard was Reno's best friend.
“Please let me take responsibility for all that Reno sells to you.”
“If you want responsibility, you have to pay for my life and my children until they grow up,” said Nabila without guilt.
“That's much? You duitan eyes or what?”
Nabila heard a reply from Richard. Indeed, in these circumstances who does not need money, it seems almost everyone needs money to survive. Nabila was also one of them, he had to return to work hard to finance his life and his two children. He still has savings, but will continue to erode if he does not start to work.
It's been almost four months since her divorce, things haven't improved very much, she's still in this state. Sometimes still lamenting his own choices, but he also begins to accept them all and begins to live a good life. It is not good if he constantly complains, he does not want to be defeated just by life.
“So how is your boyfriend or fiancee in Germany?” ask Nabila.
“We broke up, especially what to expect? I also couldn't possibly kneel before him so he could accept me again.”
“Ah, so this is why you found me I'm not Dimitri or Liliana. You're afraid they'll do you.”
Richard just nodded his head in resignation. He will still meet his best friend, but later, his mood is not good at this time. Actually he also did not want to leave Kate just like that in Germany, his heart would not be able to lie if he still loved the woman very much.
He also has no choice but to release Kate, he also knows why. Michelle, his sister can be very troublesome at times and yes, Richard hates the fact that he loves his only sister so much. What is very dear is, why Kate gave up so easily. Could've been, right, if Kate had said that she loved Richard so much and would have made Michelle change her mind?
It should be like that, if Kate did love him, it felt like all this time only Richard struggled desperately in their relationship. As for Kate, she only received what Richard gave her for free, and they survived three years of it all.
“So you've found the reason behind the breakup of your relationship?” ask Nabila.
“Yes, and Kate herself who chose not to fight this relationship. I don't think he's as loving as I am,” replied Richard.
“He can love you, but he is too afraid to start it all. Women's minds are that complicated, and you should be willing to understand their feelings better.”
“It's complicated, yes?”
“Varies by who their personality is, maybe Kate-Kate is like that.” Nabila bribed the fries in front of him. He was getting his break after lunch.
“But if you think this is your best decision, yes, don't be too disappointed. If you say Afgan, ‘mouse must meet’,” said Nabila amused.
Yes, of course a soul mate will surely meet. How to find a soul mate if they don't meet, right? Such trivial things are also worth taking into account. For once, Nabila has managed to make his widow status a joke, and sometimes he also makes jokes about men and his women's collection.
She no longer wants to take her status and questions about her ex-husband too seriously. His mind was very dizzy to think about many things, do not add to the things that do not want to talk about.
Indeed, what is wrong with being a single mother and also a widow, maybe God has indeed predestined his life like this, all he needs to do is to enjoy his life in the moment and learn to accept whatever he gives. Sometimes, this can also be an alternative, the path that God shows that Reno is not the best for him. Just like when lovers who have been in a long relationship, but must end too, Richard for example.
Farewell is always happening to every human being, it's just that the way is different for everyone.

Liliana covered the Eagle's body, then kissed the boy's forehead. “Good sleep, Eagle,” says Liliana.
“Good sleep too, Mom,” reply Eagle with a smile. Soon, the boy closed his eyes to sleep.
The night routine that Liliana always did with her son always made Liliana smile broadly. Delivering the Eagle to his dreamland, then accompany Dimitri who may be currently still working on some of his work. His life is too perfect for him to enjoy alone, he is afraid if too
enjoying this, he will be back in the face of the harsh reality like a few years ago.
“You haven't slept?” liliana asked Dimitri who was still struggling with his laptop on the bed.
“Waituin you, Eagle has slept?”
“Just slept, you don't know your job anymore? Usually it can also be until midnight,” said Liliana. He immediately got on the bed and leaned on the head of the bed.
“It seems that if I do that again, this sensitive wife could be even more sensitive.” Dimitri closed his laptop, and placed it on the nightstand next to their bed. He stretched out his hand and brought Liliana into his arms.
“I'm really cute, yes, if I like that again? But it was really unintentional, kok.”
“Al, I feel that what I'm receiving right now is too perfect. What if it turns out that the incident like before will repeat itself?”
“Why do you think that?” ask Dimitri.
Liliana played the tip of the pajamas that Dimitri wore, nor did she know why she could always think of such things. But, his thoughts about it also never came off and sometimes always passed through his head. It is not good if you think too much, especially for something that is not necessarily the case, all of this starts from the relationship Nabila who ended just like that.
“Maybe because I saw what is now in Rasain Nabila. I know Nabila is not okay, he just tries to be strong and always laugh. I can understand how desperate he is right now,” replied Liliana.
“You're afraid I'm back to admit my mistakes first, or you haven't fully believed me?” Dimitri fondly stroked Liliana's hair, fearing that she might disappoint Liliana and her children as Reno did. But that wouldn't happen if we didn't allow something like that to happen, would we?
“If I answered yes, would you be angry?”
Dimitri smiled at the top of Liliana's head. How many times has Dimitri let Liliana down and this woman kept coming back to him? Either God is too generous to her or how, but Dimitri is always grateful for all that. Dimitri has no right to be angry or not accept if Liliana says that she does not fully believe in him.
“What am I angry for? You have the right to answer ‘iya’ regardless of whether I will be angry or not. With you back the same as me, it's already the best gift I've ever received, Li, so don't think too much about things. Focus on your pregnancy.”
Liliana smiled. To be honest, he did not fully believe in Dimitri. Not many people can accept to return to a broken relationship, but Liliana decides to return for various reasons that she has, and that happens to them also due to misunderstandings. There's no reason for Liliana
reject Dimitri again, because he still loves this man.
“I will not promise that our household will always be smooth, there must be problems that we will face later. All you have to know is I'm not going to make the same mistake I did before. I will still love you and the Eagle, and also our future child here.” Dimitri now stroked the belly of Liliana who already had a bulge not too big, indicating there was life there.
“You can fully trust my love for you, that's the thing you have to trust,” Dimitri said again.
Liliana had heard this phrase very often, but it was calming when she returned to listening to it directly from Dimitri. He hoped that Dimitri could continue to say those words to him at all times.

Reni agrees to her father's decision to match her to the son of one of his colleagues. Not fully agree because Reni herself can not refuse the decision of the father, not if she does not want to be scribbled from family members. So, he sat in one of the cafes where their agreement was made, Reni arrived first so he could string up a sentence to reject the man later.
It's not about the guy being ugly or so, his father's choice is always the best, Reni knows that. But if he doesn't like it, what can he do? Reni herself will make sure if the man rejects her.
“Hai, am I late?” greet a man.
Reni looked up, and found a man with glasses standing before her. His face was exactly like the one his father showed in the photo yesterday, not bad indeed, the original was even more handsome. And Reni was also very confident that this man was the kind of good guy who was very learned. Surely later Reni will feel very guilty for hurting a man as good as this.
“Not too late, really, I am also new nyampe,” said Reni with a smile.
There was a red tinge appearing on the cheek of this man before him. It looked quite adorable indeed, but it was a pity because this man was not the Reni type, and there was no excessive heartbeat when he saw this man. Debaran, the joy is needed in a relationship prefix, Reni is quite a jerk, but she also has a heart like most women.
His name is Aldo, already a young prosecutor in the government. Aldo is one of the children of Reni's father's closest colleagues, and becomes Reni's father's favorite as well. Who wouldn't want a nice guy like this to be his daughter-in-law? If he became a parent, Reni would definitely immediately choose a man like this without a second thought. But, this time he was the victim, he would not make both parents win just like that.
Almost an hour they chat with each other, about likes, hobbies, work, and basic things in introductions. At least Aldo was a little connected to be invited to talk about things like this, and yes, quite fun. Reni is eager to say if she used to be fired from her job for cheating on her husband, but she did. At least he still has his pride.
If Reni had said all that, it would have been confirmed if Aldo would have immediately rejected this matchmaking, at the risk of Reni's father being enraged. The choice was not the best, there was still another way for Aldo not to like it.
“I invited one of my best friends here, no problem, right?” ask Reni.
“Ah, no problem. It would be nice if I could get to know your best friend too.”
Shortly after, Reni waved her hand at someone who had just entered the entrance of the cafe. This was the last weapon he had for Aldo to refuse this match willingly.
“Hai, No,” says Reni.
Yes, the friend in question is Reno. He had made a deal yesterday with his best friend, and Reno gladly agreed. Of course Reno agreed, because the content of the deal was ‘Reni would stay away from Reno gladly if Reno managed to get Aldo to reject her’.
Reno gave a faint smile to Aldo, inwardly, he felt a little pity for the man. The man looked very kind-hearted and there was nothing wrong with this man if only Reni would accept it.
“So, you will be betrothed?” ask Reno.
“Not until that stage, we are only asked to know each other first,” replied Aldo with a red tinge on his cheek.
Reno could not bear to say this to Aldo, he was afraid that there would be karma approaching them if Reno hurt the gentleman as Aldo. “So it doesn't matter if I straighten out the misunderstanding here, right?” ask Reno again.
Aldo just raised his eyebrows, curious and also waiting for a misunderstanding what Reni's best friend was talking about. “Actually me and Reni are not best friends, we are lovers. Our family has not given us blessing, therefore Reni's father started to match her.”
Aldo's face could not hide if he was very surprised, he looked at the two people before him alternately. “Sorry, Al. I didn't mean to hurt you, you're a good man but I love Reno,” Reni said. Trying to convince Aldo with that face.
There was no sentence that Aldo said anymore, he immediately got out of his chair and left the two friends or lovers just like that. Reni looks relieved, but Reno feels a little guilty. Whether what makes Reni turned into like this, in the past, Reni was very different and always cheerful at every opportunity. He only hoped that God would return to forgive his many sins because of Reni.
