THE DEEP WOUND
38.NICE GUY?
Ilene was already at Audrey's house, their eyes were both equally swollen and red.Audrey could already endure her cries but not with ilene, her tears were always flowing and without sobs
"already len's brother"Audrey stroked Ilene's back
"when did you leave?"ask Ilene
"2 days after Lino's death" Audrey replied
"how can you bear this sorrow?"
"what we can do, len, death must happen to everyone and we must be ready to let go of the one called by the almighty, especially the one we love"ilene said and the sentence struck Ilene
"how can you be this strong, I'm so proud of you, unlike myself who blamed Lino's death on others, I'm indeed evil" Ilene was aware of her actions on Ariel
Ilene raised her head that had lowered her head "oh yeah, why are you moving?" ask ilene
"there was a kind man who helped us out" Audrey said
"who?" ilene curious
"He helped Kk Lino and took her to the hospital, he also gave you a home so we could live properly,not only that the orphanage that you often visit on the beach is now in the suburbs, the city,and he always gave us some food and he said he wanted to give me a lecture but I refused because I wanted to work,and when I said that he also wanted to give me a job but I refused because he had given us so much and maybe I wouldn't be able to repay his kindness" Clearly Audrey was smiling because of the kindness of the man she was talking about
"who's that nice guy? I wanted to see him and say thank you" Ilene said
"i don't know for sure, but he always wears formal clothes, and he's also very handsome" Audrey said
"He doesn't come often but he always tells other people maybe he's his secretary or his bodyguard I don't know for sure, he comes every Sunday or Saturday,he didn't come earlier maybe he will come tomorrow because tomorrow is Sunday" Audrey said
"really? then brother will come tomorrow to see him and brother must also return his kindness to you" Sahut Ilene who was impatient to meet who the man was
Audrey smiled "oh yes brother, what brother's husband? is he good?" ask audrey
"well, a lot of people like it but I don't" Ilene said honestly
"why is that brother?"
"I can't say it, he's nice but I never thought it was good, I don't know why and I can't explain it"
"I know why, it must be because my brother thinks about Lino's sister, right?" guess Audrey
"mmm" ilene smiled wryly and Audrey smiled
"forgetting about Lino is not easy, especially by her nature, if only she ever scolded me I would not miss her this big, I regret never seeing her angry,even when I bullied her and insulted her she remained patient and only smiled, never a word of complaining in her" No more crying appeared in Audrey's eyes instead she just threw out her beautiful smile
***********
The next morning, Ilene prepared to go to Audrey's house and meet the good man Audrey meant.Ilene combed her hair and she looked at her mattress from the mirror reflection,she stopped combing her hair because she was wondering why Ariel didn't come home last night
Ilene realized "why am I thinking about her anyway, do I need to apologize to her?"
Ilene went downstairs in the elevator, she saw Valen sitting on the sofa
"len" call ilene
Valen smiled as he was called by Ilene "what's the matter? or maybe you miss me?" valen Tombal
Ilene chuckled, "I want nanya, that's why Ariel didn't come home last night?" Asked Ilene with a heart that was deg degan, how not to be this was the first time Ilene asked Ariel's whereabouts
Valen who was smiling now had his smile faded because ilene asked Ariel
"why?" Ask Valen
"nothing, I just want to know" ilene said
"no, I never said" ilene said it quickly but after saying that she became speechless like she was unaware of what had just been said
"She's gone, I don't know for sure where she is" Valen replied in an unreserved tone
"where did he go?" ask ilene
"you're his wife why don't you just ask him directly" Valen suggested with annoyance
Ilene is silent and confused as to whether she should call Ariel and say where she is
"ilene is what's wrong with you, why are you looking for Ariel anyway, what cares if she leaves aren't you happy if she's gone" Ilene said to herself
Instead of calling Ariel, Iilene would rather go to Audrey's house and meet the good man Audrey meant because Ilene wanted to adapt to her new environment, she told her personal driver to drive her,actually while Ilene was staying at Ariel's house, Ariel had prepared a car and a private driver so that Ilene could leave safely, but because of ilene's selfishness she became averse to the offer
In the car, Ilene was sitting behind the driver and she was opening her phone, she opened contact and called her best friend Amanda
"hello" Sapa Ilene
"yes, what's up Len?"
"man, you know what?"
"no"
"i found Lino's family"
"seriously? whereabouts? how are they doing?" ask manda worried
"they're good anyway, mum has died"Lilene's voice was low
"Died? geez kasian once they, if so invite me when to go there ya"
"i'm going there again"
"why don't you jump?"
"heheheheh I'm sorry, you don't get mad when we go okay"
"hmm, I've been busy,byee"
Ilene turned off the call and she focused on the streets
At last Ilene had arrived at Audrey's house, she got out of her car and knocked on the door of Audrey's house and before long Audrey appeared, from the look of her face she looked happy when Ilene came to visit her
"entering len" Audrey let Ilene in and Ilene entered
"ilene wants to see that guy, right?$ guess Audrey
"yes, I don't want to know who he is, he's Lino's friend?"
"it looks like he didn't, the situation was the first time I saw him" said Audrey who seemed to remember the look of Lino's friend
"that's what"
"sister wait here yes, Audrey will dry the cloth first, soon she comes anyway" said Audrey and replied by a smile from ilene, then Audrey went out to dry clothes
Ilene sat down casually, she saw a photo of Lino on the wall, she approached the photo of Lino, she touched Lino's face in the photo especially the picture was not too high so ilene could reach her
Ilene smiled as she stroked Lino's face
"forgive me for missing you so much"
