RUMI: The Love of a Paralyzed Man

FAIRYTALES

"Then bees and ants also live in harmony without disturbing each other," said Vivian ended the fairy tale of bees and ants.

"That's it?" Asked Rumi who was now lying on his side facing Vivian who was also lying on the bed.

"Yes, just like that. The story is finished and the story is finished" Vivian replied with a flat look.

"Sounds dull and looks more like a children's fairy tale" Rumi commented as she clucked. Vivian only smiled faintly and immediately confirmed Rumi's blanket.

"You better get some sleep and rest, Rumi!" Vivian's Advice.

"Who's your girlfriend's name, Vian?" Rumi asked suddenly who seemed very curious about Vivian's personal life.

"I don't have to tell you. That's privacy!" Answer Vivian sok selling expensive.

"Ck! No need to keep privacy in front of me! I just don't have any privacy in front of you and you can see my body from toe to head!" Rumi's voice immediately made Vivian laugh.

"That's because I'm your nurse and I've never opened up any disgrace about your body! I'm a professional, okay!" Vivi answered, Reason.

"Aib? I have a disgrace what is it?" Rumi asked curiously and slightly probed.

"There's a black mole on your ass" Vivian replied, holding back a laugh.

"Ck! That all? You just opened it up and exposed it to the dear reader then!" Sergeh Rumi as he clucked.

"Quiet down! They're not buckets the same as me!" Answer Vivian casually.

"I'm not a bucket either! So, can you tell me the name of your boyfriend who always makes you smile at yourself like that crazy guy?" Cerocos Rumi this time a little pushy.

Vivian brought her face closer to Rumi before answering the man's request.

"No!" Vivian replied firmly.

"Ck! I'll extend your sentence then!" Sergeh Rumi. Both of the men's hands were already crossed in front of the chest.

"Which punishment? My sentence is two now?" Vivian asked confusedly.

"Both!" Rumi replied firmly.

"It's so cheap!" Vivian muttered as she clucked.

"Tell me then! What's his name Archie?" Guess Rumi suddenly who instantly made Vivian surprised.

How did Rumi know that name?

"really, right? Called Archie?" Rumi asked once again with a mocking smile.

"You know where it came from?" Vivian asked covering up her misdeeds.

"You mentioned it when you called your brother and I heard it at a glance" replied Rumi who made Vivian come back in shock.

Rumi heard anything about Archie?

"But I was so sleepy that time, so I didn't really notice what you were talking about Archie about." Rumi continued to explain. Vivian breathed a little relieved now.

"So his name is Archie?" Rumi asked once again.

"Yes!" Answer Vivian is lying.

Archie's Vivian's boyfriend? Looks like Rumi is drunk!

"How long have you been with Archie?" Ask Rumi again.

"Six years," replied Vivian again making up the story.

Uh, not making up. Vivian has been with Archie for six years since she was born.

"Six years?" Rumi clucked with lebai.

"Are you dating or housing credit?" Rumi asked in a mocking tone and her typical discordant laughter.

All righty!

It's up to you, Rumi!

"Did Archie not have any intention of proposing to you or marrying you for the six years you were dating?" Rumi asked again which really should make Vivian take a deep breath.

"Just started his education, you say? You're dating a leaner?" Rumi's face turned into disbelief. Vivian wanted to laugh out loud now.

"You can say so! Archie is indeed younger than me," Vivian replied honestly.

Nineteen years younger to be exact!

"Ck!".

"Are you not afraid of being a spinster? Dating in droves and still have to wait for him to finish his education. It's not necessarily you guys getting married either!" Decak Rumi seraya bercerocos as usual.

Amnesia turned out to have changed Rumi who used to be irritable to talk into a brassy and chatty.

After all, why call it a spinster if Vivian alone is no longer a virgin! And don't ask who made Vivian not a virgin anymore! Of course this amnesiac guy next to Vivian!

"The fool is not going anywhere. So why should I be afraid of being a spinster?" Vivian said diplomatically again.

"If I were you, I'd be looking for someone more serious than waiting with years of uncertainty!" Rumi commented again before the man turned around and turned his back on Vivian.

Vivian only sighed and stared at Rumi's blanket-covered back. The woman finally turned around and turned back to Rumi. After all, there was a big bolster in the middle of Vivian and Rumi that was the limiter of their position, and Vivian would also move later if Rumi had fallen asleep.

Speaking of waiting, Vivian seems to have become a record breaker in terms of waiting for an uncertain relationship. Seven years Vivian waited for this amnesiac man next to her, and it turned out that for seven years Rumi did not remember anything about Vivian.

And even more painful, Rumi will soon marry the woman of her family choice. Hopefully the woman who will be Rumi's wife will be a good and loving woman, and not a selfish woman. Didn't Rumi deserve to be happy after these seven years?

"I'll be back in the morning."

"You believe me, don't you? I'm not running away from responsibilities and I'm gonna explain everything to Mama and your Papa."

Vivian wipes away her tears that suddenly come down because she remembers Rumi's sweet promise seven years ago. But it's all over. It's all over...

"Vian, are you asleep?" Rumi's reprimand instantly made Vivian flinch from her daydream. Vivian wiped away the tears once more in both of her eyes.

"Yet. What was? You need anything?" Vivian asked as she turned to face Rumi.

"My drinking water ran out and you haven't picked it up yet" Rumi sniffed her chin at the empty glass on the nightstand.

"Sorry! It seemed like I had forgotten," replied Vivian who had woken up again and circled the bed, then picked up Rumi's empty glass. Vivian filled the empty glass with water from the dispenser that was in the corner of Rumi's room.

"Here, your drinking water!" Said Vivian while thrusting a glass that was full of water on Rumi.

"You've been crying?" Rumi asked before the man gulped the water down the toilet.

"No! I'm just sleepy" Vivian answered lying.

"Missed your Archie?" Rumi who seemed to be feeling jealous.

But you shouldn't be jealous, Rumi! Archie is similar to you and he is a miniature of you!

Vivian muttered inwardly.

"Slightly," Vivian replied, adding a smile.

"Sleep on the couch and don't be noisy! I can't sleep if you're noisy or snoring!" Rumi's murmur while thrusting roughly her empty glass at Vivian. Rumi was back lying down and now the man was lying on his back to Vivian who was still standing near the nightstand.

Vivian simply held back a laugh and shook her head, feeling astonished by Rumi's behavior.

Rumi, Rumi!
