The Charm of the Betrayed Woman

Artha

“huft...” breaths come out of his mouth because his nose is red and clogged.

He couldn't sleep that night. It was the first night he did not reply to a message and said good night to Artha. It felt like there was a void space in his heart. Something is missing while that person is still there.

Still clearly remembered how his first meeting with his former fiancee. At that time they were teenagers and still did not understand how to live the relationship. But they are both committed to being loyal to each other. At least that's what Afa did until the moment of her heart breaking.

The first time they met was also very silly. It was the first time Artha confessed to her parents that she already had a boyfriend. His parents are very happy. Plus the woman who is liked by her child is a beautiful and smart girl.

For the first time she met Afa after a year of dating without face to face. He met Aba with his family. Yes, Papa, Mama and her sister also participated. The meeting was peppered with embarrassment for each other even though they were both very happy.

Artha was the first of two children. Artha and Afa were born in the same month and the same year. It's just the date is different. Artha was born in August 1 while Afa was born in August 2. Back when they were LDRs, they often celebrated birthdays together over the phone. Usually they celebrate at 11pm on the 1st to 12pm on the 2nd. That means in the last hours of Artha's birthday and in the first hours of Afa's birthday.

Their hopes are always the same. They want to live together quickly. But it seems like it's all just false hope. Maybe Artha's real prayer isn't that.

Artha has a height of 170cm with a weight of 195kg while Afa has a height of 155cm with a weight of 45kg. He often told Afa that his weight is not ideal sometimes make him embarrassed. The Afa never demanded more. At times, Afa asked Artha to exercise, but not because she was embarrassed. Afa wants Artha to be healthier, even if Artha wants to. There are many reasons Artha has made. Tired and unable to exercise heavily become one of the obstacles. But back again, Afa wouldn't force it. To be honest in her heart, Artha was the person she loved unconditionally.

Artha was dark-skinned, in contrast to Afa who had white skin. It also often becomes bullyan material for his friends. Coffee milk said. But Afa just smiled. Again, for her Artha was the person she loved for who she was.

Afa often felt that she had many flaws. He was certainly aware that he was not the capital city's slang son. The clothes he often wears are short t-shirts with jackets and jeans. Whereas if Afa was brought together with her friends Artha, Afa saw the women there wearing short skirts or hot pants.

Artha's mother once asked Afa to wear a short skirt. I did it even though it was very uncomfortable. It was all he did for the sake of making the people he loved happy. Actually Artha is also not the type of prosecutor who should wear this or that. It's just that his mother wanted to dress up Afa every time they met. Ask to wear a short-sleeved shirt without a jacket or even tied hair to look like a sweet girl. That's definitely not the way she dresses, Afa.

“Happy birthday Princess. I know your day was tough this afternoon. But remember yes, the problems you face are God's way to mature you more. May you be happy the next day and the next. May God always protect you when Brother's care is no longer up to you.”  The sound of incoming messages from Shane was the first to enter on his mobile phone. I read it with tears. Usually, he was just acting ordinary because in previous years he must have been busy calling with his girlfriend and would just read the incoming message in the morning.

His phone kept ringing. There is an incoming message or just an incoming call. The call came from Artha. He was still reluctant to communicate with the man.

One by one the messages were opened by Afa. On top of Shane's message was a message from Sam.

“Happy Birthdays parrot. Don't be sad, keep going. I know that parrots never want to be eaten. I pray that after Lo single, Lo will accept my love that will never stop fighting. Hahaha.”

As usual, Sam was a little. Smiling, she read a message from Sam. Afa knew that Sam had expressed his feelings, only that besides Afa was afraid to destroy her friendship, she was also not sure that one human was serious. With his often rancid attitude, of course, Afa felt that it might just be a joke.

There were messages from his other friends. Eventually, he finds a message from Artha.

“Happy birthday yes Fa. Sorry if Mas has been wrong a lot with Afa. Sorry I can't keep his love for Afa. Sorry I can't be loyal to Afa. Sorry if I have Afa. Sorry for all that Afa loved but Mas can not reply. Afa knew that Mas loved Afa. But Mas's love is no longer for Afa. I knew that Afa was angry and needed time to be alone. Hope you get better than me. Mas dear same Afa.”

“Bullshyit! Hahaha!” the sound of Afa's laughter boomed after reading a message from Artha.

“Love is not for me anymore? You don't even deserve to love me you bastard! You don't know what it's like to be me because Lo was never in my position. It makes me feel that Lo is everything. But it turns out that the edges of Lo are just like any other guy! Basic cheating man!” aba's curse is then accompanied by a cry.

His heart was completely broken. The sky felt as if it had fallen on him. He was desperate for his life. Sometimes he thinks about ending his life. There was no longer any reason for him to survive. But he also thought about the reward. How could he possibly end his life when those who had many good deeds would not necessarily go to heaven?

Everything becomes a dilemma. The problems seemed to accumulate more and more without anything he solved a single one. Yes, his life has really been very ruined because of a man. A man who doesn't even deserve to be loved.
