"Wait!" Axelle cried out suddenly. The sound of his voice even shocked the people around him.
Instantly, Irene and Zaky's steps came to a halt. Then they both turned around. Axelle rushed over.
He stared intently at Irene and Zaky alternately. With a furious heart held back the upset.
"Why did you suddenly come to the location?" Axelle asked.
"I just want to see you for a second. Naturally a manager pays attention to the performance of his care artist." Answer Zaky accordingly. Although there is actually a purpose tucked in between them.
"Where did you know Irene came with me to the location?" Axelle was curious.
"It's just a coincidence. I was even surprised to see Irene here."
"really?"
Axelle turned to look at Irene. "We need to talk. Come with me." Declared.
But Irene ignored. He turned around quickly, then again stepped away from Axelle and Zaky. Somehow his feelings suddenly changed since seeing Axelle and Clarissa forget themselves in the scene.
"Irene, wait." Axelle shouted.
Irene ignored it again. He accelerated his steps leaving Axelle. Until suddenly a strong pull on the wrist stopped his steps for a moment.
"Listen to me first." Pinta Axelle as soon as Irene turned around, faced her.
"What do I need to hear from you?" Upset Irene.
"If asked again, I really don't want to do that scene. But I have to do it for__"
"I know. I-i understand. Even when you forget yourself, I try to understand. Then what else do I have to hear from you."
"You mad?"
Irene shakes. "No. I'm not mad. I know you can't be trusted. So why am I angry."
From the sound of the sentence, Irene was definitely angry. Angry at seeing Axelle and Clarissa forget themselves. They do not even do it just acting. It was as if they were pouring out all the feelings in the hearts of the two. There was a sense of disappointment, even pain in the chest as he watched it.
Clarissa is Axelle's ex-boyfriend. The relationship that had been established between them was even longer than his relationship with Axelle who had only been a few months. She could replace Clarissa in Axelle's heart. He seems to be starting to glaze over.
"You're angry, Ren. I know you're mad at me." Axelle said slowly.
"So, this is why you asked me to come with you. Because you want to show me that I'm not wa_"
"Enough. I told you, I don't want to talk about Clarissa." Sela Axelle was quick before Irene finished her sentence.
"Axis ... You better ask your heart. Do you really love me, or am I just an outlet for you. From what I see, it looks like you still love Clarissa." Irene said. Without realizing it, the grains of clear water began to fall from his eye fertilizers.
Axelle shook her head slowly. "No. You're wrong."
Irene shook her head. "I'm not wrong. It was very clear from the way you kissed her. Sorry, I better get home. Nothing to talk about anymore." Irene turned back. Then his feet quickly left Axelle.
"Irene ... Listen to me first." Strangled Axelle while trying to catch up with Irene. But his steps came to a halt as Zaky blocked his powerful arm.
"Take me off." Axelle threw his arm from Zaky's grip.
"Let her. You have no right to rule his life. I don't know what happened between you. But all you have to know is that your marriage is a charade. I started it and I'll end it." Zaky said firmly and looked serious.
Axelle looked at Zaky. Trying to digest every sentence that came out of Zaky's mouth.
"What do you mean?"
"I've prepared your farewell scenario."
"meaning?" Axelle.
"Divorce." Brief Zaky.
"More clearly."
"The wedding ceremony you guys did. Now it's time for you to do a divorce charade. You're getting a divorce. Still don't understand? Should I repeat?"
A divorce?
Split with Irene?
Nah!
Axelle would never do that. Other than Zaky, Irene was the only one he had. He really didn't want to lose it. He does not want to return to make friends.
"I don't want to." Strictly Axelle without further ado.
Zaky pulled the corner of his lips. Axelle is joking at the moment.
"I've promised this to Irene before. Before the show began. Now, I want to keep my promise."
"I don't want a divorce." Axelle once again.
"Why?"
"I love her."
Zaky. Again, he did not take Axelle's words seriously. Because he knows very well what the criteria of the ideal woman Axelle. There's no way Axelle would suddenly confess her feelings for Irene. He's not the kid yesterday afternoon who just got to know Axelle. He has known Axelle since childhood. Axelle is his sister. A sister who has no idea where it came from. Although at that time he did not understand anything, but he tried to accept Axelle as his brother.
As she grows up, and understands the meaning of betrayal for a woman, she still tries to accept Axelle wholeheartedly. Although he began to understand what his mother felt like when betrayed. That's why Axelle lives alone. Because the presence of Axelle in the middle of his family is like a wound that never dry. The pain of betrayal will always open old wounds. He really didn't want to see his mother hurt.
But he also did not want to make Axelle feel excluded from the family who did not want it. Until he decided to accompany Axelle to live in this city. Although in fact he is a candidate for the leadership of a large company to replace his father's position later. He was willing to leave it to accompany Axelle. So Axelle doesn't feel lonely.
"That's it. Next time we talk. I have to take Irene home. Irene may not be feeling well right now. He felt dizzy earlier. He almost fell. Good job, yeah." Zaky said as he patted Axelle on the shoulder. Then move on. Leaving Axelle who was still standing.
Axelle shook her head slowly, without realizing it, even her eyes began to tear up.
"Divorce? No, I don't want to." Mumbled wailing.
.
.
In the parking lot, Irene was still standing. Putting his eyes around. Confused as to what he should do at the moment. The sight of Axelle and Clarissa kissing still looms over him. Along with the pain that increasingly pierces the heart. He then wiped away the tears that were still broken without him being able to stem it.
"Ren, let's go home." Take Zaky.
Irene hurried back to wipe away her tears. Take a deep breath, then exhale slowly later. Just shedding the pain that is getting squeezed in the chest. He held his chest, trying to normalize the heartbeat that was racing because of the anger that he was unable to spill. And it ends like thousands of rocks hitting. The more stifling the chest.
Irene was only able to nod her head in response to Zaky's invitation.
"Come, over here." Zaky stepped first towards his parked car not far away. Followed by Irene later.
But Irene had not been able to open the car door, a loud voice of someone was heard again.
"Irene, wait." Axelle exclaimed with a high tone as he stepped towards Irene.
Irene lowered her hand that was preparing to open the car door. He lowered his face, as if reluctant to look at Axelle.
"I'm sorry." Axelle said briefly.
Irene now lifted her face. Looking coldly at Axelle. That sentence seemed to justify what had happened a moment ago. Axelle is not just acting. But devotes his feelings to Clarissa. So it's true, that Axelle still loves Clarissa.
Is Irene's speech entirely correct? Axelle just made it a mere impingement?
Irene needs an answer. Because their relationship has gone too far.
"Please forgive me." Axelle said again.
Not wrong anymore!
The tears rolled back over the cheeks. Irene could no longer hold him back.
