"Naura?" Gerry looked surprised.
The woman named Naura nodded and instead leaned her face to kiss Gerry's left and right cheeks.
"How are you, Gerr?" He asked enthusiastically without seeing me standing next to Gerry.
Gerry was a little awkward and glanced at me.
"Sorry... I didn't expect to see you after all this time" Naura glanced at me and looked at me from the top down "this is your wife?" tanyakanya.
"Wife candidate" he replied indifferently.
What happened, why look Gerry's eyes like that when he saw the woman named Naura. I've seen Gerry's eyes look like that, when I chose to leave him first.
"Who's the mas?" I'm trying to be polite.
"Temen lecture mas first" he replied in a cold tone.
"Naura, this is Caramel my future wife" she said, introducing us.
I stretched out my hand and was greeted with a helping hand without hesitation.
"I'm Naura, Gerry's teacher in college" he said.
"You guys are leaving?" He asked after releasing his hand at me.
"Yes" replied Gerry briefly "First yes..." Her body was in a hurry while holding my hand.
"Gerr..." Call Naura when we're just walking a few steps.
"Next week there is Reunion, the show is 5th once but you never come at all. Can you come this time?" He said half hoping.
"I try" Gerry answered briefly and took me back to walk out of the restaurant.
Why is Gerry avoiding Naura? Did something happen in Masalalu? This time I realized I didn't know Gerry. Moreover, how was his life before marrying Kirana.
***
I dare not ask Gerry anything. Because seeing this unusual attitude of his makes me a little afraid. I was afraid that I would offend her if I asked her about who that woman named Naura was to make her like this.
Let it be, I pendam myself my curiosity. He will tell me if he wants to.
"Where are you?" I asked when I tried on a wedding dress.
"Huh? good.you're so beautiful, dear.." Praise me.
"That's very fine.You're very pretty wearing this bridal dress. The model is not very glamorous. In accordance with the calm bride" said the owner of the Salon.
I don't know what kind of relationship Gerry had with Naura. Until it made him like this. Maybe her body is here with me. But his mind went nowhere.
"Are you not too open?" I ask once again.
I went back into the dressing room. I chose another wedding dress with a simple model and not too open. I pegged myself in the mirror before going out to ask Gerry about the clothes I was wearing right now.
"Mbak.. Could you please loop my hair up? Leave a little on the left and right" I asked an employee who accompanied me to try on a wedding dress in the dressing room.
"Good mbak.." He answered obediently and began to style my hair according to my direction.
When I finished I went back out to ask Gerry. But I saw him sitting dreamy with blank eyes. Again.
I can only take a deep breath and be patient. Because he's not usually like this. Ignored me.
"What is this about?" I walked towards him and held his shoulder.
"Mass?" call me once more.
"Ahhh yes, sorry" She was surprised and looked at me who was already standing before her.
"Good, I love it" he answered briefly.
The owner of the salon named Callista also looked at Gerry with surprise.
"You don't like the one that's a little open, it's a choice that suits you" Callista said.
I even curled my hair so he would notice me. But his mind is not here with me.
"What else with a hairstyle like this, you will be the center of attention when married later" said Callista while standing and holding my shoulder to face a large mirror.
"I'll think about it again.." I was a little disappointed with Gerry's attitude.
Callista looked at my slightly grim countenance and let me back in the changing room without saying anything. I put my shirt back on and walked out to Gerry who was still like that.
"Coc?" He wondered as soon as I sat down beside him.
"Next time we're here again. Later if your mind has gone nowhere" I said and stood up.
Gerry was surprised to see me rush to say goodbye to Callista and apologized because today I have not been able to determine my choice because Gerry is not okay.
He chased me and pulled my hand until I stopped stepping "You why baby?" Ask a little worried.
"Ga knapa-napa mas, just take me home" I took his hand and put him in the car.
He paused for a moment before following me into the car and sitting behind the wheel.
"I'm sorry, baby.." He wants to take my hand. But before I could hold it, I folded my hands in front of my chest and looked out the window.
"Ga pa-pa mas" I said as I closed my eyes pretending to sleep.
And all the way we went through with silence. He's with his own thoughts and I'm with my own.
That's until I get out of the car. He wanted to drive me but I stopped "I'm tired, go home. I want to sleep"
Without waiting for an answer from him I took my foot off leaving him who was still sitting quietly behind the wheel.
