Scratches of Past Wounds

Waiting tomorrow

 Doni swallowed his sense of disappointment after the rejection of Light . The light did not want to be approached because his heart was still very wounded. Doni was intending to explain but stopped him from doing so considering the Light had just awakened from his subconscious.

Doni finally called the doctor to check the condition of the Light even though the night was late. There is nothing to worry about, Light only needs the assistance of psychologists so as not to dissolve in his own thinking.

Both Doni and Light ended up just as silent as each other's thoughts. The light only looked at the sky of the hospital sky while recalling the journey of his life. While Doni did not stop looking at the Light.

" Dear, sleep. Don't think too much. Tomorrow I'll explain everything to you. Now you rest, yeah. " Said Doni who could not bear to see the Light was still silent as if thinking of something.

Without replying to Doni Light's words tilted his body back at Doni. Light still doesn't know what happened to him and why he got here. But Light could feel his body weak and helpless. Doni was right, the Light needs rest to recover itself. There is a baby in her womb that she must take care of.

" You need a hug brother ? " Tanya Doni. And the Light answered him with a slab. Doni was disappointed.

" You usually can't sleep if you're not in her stomach. Want ya...? " Donis has not given up.

" No, from now on I will get used to it myself. " Soft, cold and piercing. That's what Doni feels. No longer is there a spoiled voice calling "Aya " . Now it's changing "me ".And what was it, get used to it yourself, Oh no...!!

" And you're not gonna let that go, honey. Brother has an explanation. Can't right now because you need proof not to talk nonsense. You can only be angry because of the stupidity of your brother who does not listen to your words. But don't think you've betrayed. Not everything is as it seems. Wait till tomorrow. " Doni immediately moved and soon heard the bathroom door open and then closed .

Doni ran his frustration into the bathroom. Wash his face many times until his shirt is wet with splashing water from his face. Not angry at the Light, but with the circumstances that cornered him. Regrets that have no solution. Everything feels stifling. Moreover, the rejection of Light and its utterance that implies separation.

Doni's been locked in guilt for days. Who cannot sleep and eat well. Coupled with an unbearable sense of anxiety mixed with longing. Now it feels even more agonizing, when the Light refuses its touch.

Want it to feel like Doni is forcing to just hug, but the psychic Light is fragile. Doni doesn't want to make it worse. Therefore Doni can only vent his tightness in the bathroom. With his face and head . At least Doni is a little calm now.

The light can only cry in silence. Doni's words became a big question in his mind. He was too quick to assume. Given that Doni always rejected Marinda's presence all this time and how obsessed she was with her husband.

I don't know, tomorrow there's going to be clarity. The light wiped away her tears . Trying to think positively so that his head is a little light. As Doctor Nadya said that she always remembered. "Suggest yourself and don't overthinking the "light trying to calm down in order to get some sleep tonight. Until the light finally fell back.

Doni came out of the bathroom, and changed his shirt for a new one. Removing the remaining water on her face and hair with a towel. But his eyes were not the slightest bit sidetracked from the back of the Light that was seen descending up and down regularly. The light has gone to sleep.

Slowly but surely Doni peeked at the face that now looks peaceful in his sleep. With the slightest movement Doni climbed into the bed and embraced Light from behind. No matter what the Light will say tomorrow that surely Doni let go of this stifling longing first.

While at a nightclub Marinda is gathering with her friends. It was like they were having a party. By renting a VVIP room with various types of drinks that are expensive.

" Hi Beib. tumben ngadain party, in what order. " Ask one of Marinda's friends, a diamond magnate named Jean.

" No, nanya. Enjoy this night with happiness. " Continue another friend.

Finally they no longer asked because Marinda just smiled in response without explaining. Parties among women entrepreneurs are different. They spent the night just dancing and drinking until his sanity vanished . No exception Marinda.

When he was half drunk, a friend approached him. She's Laura, who owns a parfume import business and has her own lab. Creating his own parfume concoction so that no one would be able to replicate it except stealing his formula.

" Don't drink too much, Rin. You will get drunk and not be able to control yourself. " Turkey reminded Marinda.

" Come sit down, enough of the party. Let them party . " Laura pulled Marinda back to the semicircular Sofa.

Marinda would not sit with Laura. His body still felt like he wanted to move, so he still shook his body while sitting. Until his eyes caught a figure he did not like to walk closer.

" Hey, brother, I'm not drunk. I thought it was just a hallucination. It turns out you are. "

" Why sit here. Go... ! I don't like having my party ruined because of an uninvited guest. " Snapped Marinda to a woman younger than her.

" I just wanted to say hello not interrupt. " Say that woman again.

" Mom and son are the same. His presence carried a dark aura and a foul smell. " Ejek Marinda with a slanted smile.

" You can hate me, I don't intend to like you either, don't worry. " The woman poured the drink into a glass and took a slow sip without asking for permission.

" Oh, Amelia. Taking someone else's drink without permission in front of the owner. " Marinda again chuckled mockingly.

" To be an actor and a con artist must indeed be thick-faced, Brother. If it doesn't work. Aren't you also shameless, for trapping Lord Aksa to sleep with you ? " Amelia smiled obliquely looking at Marinda's face flushed in anger.

" You...

" Be calm, brother, fellow actors I do not like to drop each other. As long as we have different prey. Can I learn from you ? All this time I got prey easily because he was a stupid man. But right now my prey is too cold and hard to touch. Come on, brother, give me the recipe. " Amelia seemed to have also been on the verge of her consciousness. He continued to sip the red drink casually.

The two women's conversation was heard by Laura without interfering. Laura only noticed the two arguing and condescending to each other.

" Who you want to conquer, Amelia. Don't tell me it's Max. " Marinda said as if she didn't.

" Why if you are, don't be greedy. Let go of Max for me. " Say Amelia said without sin.

" You won't make him love to die to me. Go. I don't have time to serve you. "

" You're so stingy, come on. Help me. Give her something that makes her sleep with me and can't let go of me afterwards. " Rayu Amelia's.

" Go... ! "

" Alright, next time I'll come to you for that. Have a good time, brother... "

Amelia stepped slightly unsteadily towards the toilet. He has to refresh himself immediately or he can't get home safely from here. But when she was about to get out Amelia was surprised by the presence of the woman who had been with Marinda. Laura...

" Hi. I'm Laura. Marinda's friend, who was sitting next to her. " Said Laura introduce herself.
