RTB 2: I Want You Back

28

. Avril turned her gaze, she did not expect Alvi would come back again after almost 15 minutes Alvi departed. Obviously Avril heard the sound of a car that was lit and also heard that the car had departed. When Avril was about to dispose of the remaining contraceptive pills that she had not consumed anymore, Avril was surprised to see Alvi who was about to open the door with her. Although Avril tried to hide the pill behind her body, it made Alvi even more curious. After Alvi snatched the object, the look in his eyes became sharp, looking disappointed look he showed after seeing an object that he never imagined would deal with his wife.

"If you can't accept me, that's not how it works." Said Alvi who turned around with a flat voice and a cold demeanor. It seems Avril was with Alvi in the past. All this time, Alvi was very warm and never acted this cold.

"Al. let me explain first." Persuaded Avril to get out of her seat and tried to approach Alvi.

"Lantas, do I have to believe in your explanation or in what I see now? I can understand if indeed we have not been trusted as parents. But, if your path is deliberately delayed, I'm honestly disappointed. You know I really wish I was a whole dad. But.. hah already. I was in vain to speak. Because the truth is you still love Aldi, right?"

"Why do you think so Al. If I still love her, there's no way I'd accept being your wife now. Many opportunities have come for me and Aldi to be together. But not with destiny. In fact you're my next door Al."

"Is that just an excuse for me to forgive?"

"Al. I said listen to me first."

"OKAY. I'll listen to you." Alvi turned around and seriously looked at Avril who was trying to hold back her tears. However, Avril did not explain directly. He only wiped the dew in his eyes a few times until finally Alvi sighed heavily without speaking leaving her alone in the room.

"Why am I silent?" He muttered softly who sat on the floor while covering his face. "Stupid.why am I so stupid." Avril kept cursing herself and her breathing grew even more congested. He beat his chest hard while starting to sob in frustration. Shortly after Alvi passed, Bu Rumi came and approached Avril. Bu Rumi immediately grabbed Avril who continued to blame her.

"Mom.... Alvi's angry." Lirih Avril hugged Bu Rumi tightly.

"It will be good again." Persuade Bu Rumi while rubbing Avril's shoulder to calm down.

. "Master today there-"

"Cancel all my schedules today." Alvi interrupted Ray before he actually finished his sentence. Seeing Alvi's attitude that is not good, Ray can only obey Alvi's will at this time.

"Bright sir." Ray opens the car door for Alvi. I don't know what's going on, Ray himself felt astonished because just a moment ago, Alvi was still fine. And why the ring was left behind, but when it came back it showed great disappointment.

"Maybe your wedding ring is missing. So he's disappointed." Inner Ray slowly drove the car away from the house.

. All day, Avril just stayed in the room. He refused to go out even to eat. Reifan was with him at this time he had not touched at all. I heard only a loud laugh from downstairs. Every now and then Reifan cried probably because he wanted to be with Avril. But, the crying subsided, it can be guessed that Siska could already control Reifan.

Avril glanced at the clock on the table beside her. It's home hours. His inner. However, Alvi had not yet arrived home. He tried to contact but Alvi's phone was not activated. Then, Avril tried to call Ray's number.

"Ray... Is Alvi with you?" Ask Avril when the call is connected.

"L-yes, miss." Answer Ray.

"Has he eaten?"

"Not yet." Ray's voice sounded lethargic.

"What time do you go home? I'll make him eat."

"Don't bother miss. Tu-muan is about to finish his meeting and will be eating soon." Avril heaved a heavy sigh hearing Ray's panicked reply.

"Yes already. Say sorry Ray." Said Avril later. The sound of her trembling voice held tightness if she remembered Alvi's disappointed face.

"I-iya miss. I'll tell you." After that, the call was interrupted. Avril throws her cell phone quietly on the bed, and she passes out of the room.

"Miss looks pale. Is miss sick?" Siska asked who was getting closer to looking at Avril's face.

"No. I'm fine." Avril answered with a smile. Even though his head felt throbbing at this moment.

"But...."

"Mother's in the kitchen, right?" Avril asked interjected and diverted her conversation.

"L-yes, miss." Siska replied that she could not hide her anxiety. After rubbing Reifan's head, Avril sauntered towards the kitchen. And soon something fell.

"Mommy.." cried Reifan immediately ran and grabbed the lying Avril. Not only Siska, Rumi's mother immediately approached and frantically tried to contact Alvi. However, Alvi's phone still can not be contacted.

. "Hallo." Ray said as his phone kept ringing. Ray immediately got up from his seat after hearing the news from Siska. Ray immediately tells Alvi about this, but the response is not as usual. Alvi who used to always panic when she heard Avril was sick, and now Avril fainted even Alvi just glanced at Ray.

"I'm tired Ray. I'm not going home." Alvi surprised Ray.

"But sir. lady..."

"It's Ray, most Avril just wants to get my attention." Ray was stunned by Alvi's attitude all day. He just stayed in the room and didn't do anything, but now he says he's tired?

"What's wrong with them?" Ray's mind grew more and more fixed on Alvi who had passed into his private room.

. "Mommy..." Call Reifan in a hoarse voice as he ceaselessly wept for Avril who was lying in the living room. Slowly Avril opened her eyes and she glanced around. Instantly her tears flowed because she did not find Alvi there. His chest is getting crowded.

"Miss awake? Is anyone sick?" Avril shook her head while smiling lightly.

"Is my mistake too big? I just don't want this kid to be away." His mind grabbed Reifan's face lying in his arms. Unknowingly, the other hand reached for a flat stomach which somehow he was so sorry for.

"Mommy's sick?" Reifan asked tightly around Avril and felt a different warmth.

"Mommy... sister." he said then made Avril wide-eyed.

"You want a sister?" Reifan just stared at Avril with a plain look, obviously Avril did not know what Reifan was thinking.

"Dad?" Hearing that short question, Avril again cried without a sound. Just staring blankly at the ceiling of the room.

"Dad works baby. Go home later." Avril answered trying to convince.

. Day after day passed, Alvi did not come home for 3 days. The news was heard by Aldi.

"Can I go home?" Aldi asked when Noah checked. 'Plak' Aldi grimaced as his arm was hit softly by Noah.

"You're crazy."

"Oh clear. I'm crazy about Avil." Aldi replied loudly. It was as if Aldi had forgotten the existence of Dinda in his life.
