The Hidden Love

Secret Screens

"What's up, Mom? I have said many times, I do not know the existence of Neng Cinta if Mas comes here to ask that," said Aldi.

"My goal here is not to do that."

"Want to?"

"I'd like to make an offer with Mas Aldi."

"Offer?" Dahi Aldi successfully wrinkled perfectly thinking about what offer William meant.

"Yes. I have high hopes that Mas Aldi will consider my offer" William said.

"What offer?"

"Related ..."

"Please drink the coffee."

Sari came and placed the coffee cup, each in the presence of William and her husband.

"Yes, thank you Ma'am" said William sincerely.

"So what did Mas Willi want to say?" Ask Aldi curious.

"I've bought a large house at twice the price when Mas Aldi bought this house from my ex-wife. I want Mas Aldi and family to move there, I will also return the money that Mas Aldi has paid to buy this house, even with the amount doubled."

"What do you mean by Willi?" Aldi and Sari sat with each other, they were still confused by William's words.

"This house is the only legacy of the parents of Love. I don't want anyone to buy it, I beg you guys, please help me. Move to the house that I have determined, and I will also return the money that Mas Aldi has paid for Love, doubled" William explained.

Aldi let out a long breath, the man seemed to be thinking hard. "Not the money problem Mas, the problem is that I and Neng Cinta have both made a deal" he said.

"I beg you, please think about my offer. I can't live like this. If only I had not been able to find it, but at least by staying in this house makes my longing for him will be reduced. I beg you, Ma'am," asked William to be clear.

"What do you think, Sari?" Aldi asked his wife's opinion.

"If I am up to Akang how good, but if I may propose, we should indeed accept Mas Willi's offer. I don't have the same heart as him" said Sari half-whispering.

Aldi remained silent for a while. The man was really confused. On the one hand he wanted to stay there, but on the other, to be honest, he also felt interested in William's offer. There is a speck of doubt, fearing it if it is said he has reneged on his deal with Love.

"Where are we?" Ask William.

Aldi gasped from his daydream. He looked at his wife as if asking for answers. Only then did Aldi dare to decide as soon as he saw Sari nod her head.

"Well Mas, I accept Mas Willi's offer, but on one condition," Aldi dropped out.

"What's that?"

"Just let my family move into that house, don't give me money because I don't want to be said to betray the deal between me and Neng Love."

"But I keep pushing. Think of it as a sign of my gratitude to you!" Decisive William.

"I'm sorry, but my decision is unanimous. We'll just move into the house you gave me if you want this house."

"alright. I'll give you the keys and the house certificate tomorrow."

"Yes. We also need to get ready to pack our things" said Aldi.

"Again I say a thousand thanks to you. I don't know what to repay your kindness with" said William, wistfully.

"It's okay, Mom. If you still love your ex-wife, then fight! Indeed, a woman will be devastated when she sees a man who persistently fights for her" advises Aldi.

"Yes, yeah."

"Tomorrow at eight o'clock in the morning we're ready to vacate this house, Mas Willi can take it right away."

"Oh yes Kang, later Neng Love's goods how?" Ask Sari.

William sculpting. "Love Items? Meanin?"

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot Sar. Yes Mas, there are some Neng Cinta items that are still left in this house. He said he would take it at any time if he had time," Aldi said.

William mute. He wanders back to think of many things about the girl.

.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

According to Aldi, he and his family moved into the house William bought. The man left and William handed over the keys to the house and the certificate. William also paid the cost of car services to transport Aldi's goods.

Silent.

That is what William can feel when Aldi and his son and wife leave the house.

William set his foot through every part of the house. Love Rooms. Yes, the first place he made as a palace when sipping the sweet honey of love. A place that bears witness when Love hands over her most precious treasure.

William sat down, sweeping his gaze across the room. Absolutely nothing has changed other than just the curtains that have been replaced.

The man again swung his steps as he recalled about the relics of Love. One by one the goods from inside the large cardboard William took out until his eyes were fixed on the thick pink book.

"What's this?" William gasped as a piece of paper that turned out to be a photograph fell from the book.

Again, William's heart beats faster when he sees a photo of him during High School in the book.

William's curiosity was so great that he could not resist reading the entire book.

Over an hour William read every scrap of ink on every page.

"Oh my God, Love ... So you've loved me since you were in high school? Yeah, I remember that time. You're first grade and I'm third grade. You're always bullied kids because you go to elite high school with only student fees. Not to mention when you sell fried foods, but for God's sake ... Why can't I remember you."

William reopened the paper near the end of the book.

"So this is why you accepted my proposal back then? Stupid me who can't see the sincerity of love that radiates in your eyes. It turns out you're the woman who truly loves me sincerely, and I didn't expect that this much you'd keep your feelings for me. You're willing to work part-time to go to college, to work as my secretary, and that's all you do for the sake of your love for me. You idiot! I'm really stupid!"

William looked up, hoping that his defense would not be broken but his efforts were in vain. The puddle in his eye was like an endless flood.

"Now what should I do God? Please ... Find me with him, let me atone for my sins. Don't torture me in this way, I beg you," lamented William.

The man also dissolved in his tears. Hold the pink-bound book while laying down. The book was so close, as if it were Love.

Time keeps going. The night had swept over the earth completely when William woke up. His eyes were puffy after almost a day of crying over the departure of Love is like crazy.

"I must immediately search for your existence, I cannot continue like this" William murmured.

.

.

Love rubbed her belly which began to pattern. A plate of rice with the kale of tauco, a piece of fried chicken of kremes and fried tempeh has made it into his stomach.

"Unfortunately, Mother is full. Now it's time for us to rest, tomorrow we still have to work hard, dear" he said, relentlessly stroking his stomach.

After washing her cutlery, Cinta rushed up to her bed. Look at the ceiling of the room blankly. Love hates moments like this.

William's shadow was always chasing him wherever he went, and that made him sad. Imagine her poor life, getting pregnant alone without a husband or family accompanying her. Weeping had been a loyal friend of Love for as long as she had her brief marriage to William.

But love has no regrets about what happened. He was very happy because he had been a part of William's life.

Honeymoon in Bali at that time, enough to make Love feel happy. Especially with the fetus in the womb at this time, his baby with the man he loved so much. It's okay to part, at least Love has the most valuable treasure with the presence of the future baby later.

Daydreams of Love broke when he heard the ringing of his cell phone flowed beautifully filled the room. Soon he reached for the object that had been neatly stored on the nightstand.

"Mang Asep's? Why is he calling these nights, "the monologue of Love.

"Yes Mang" said the girl so dragged the green icon and put it in her ear.

"Sorry Neng nagging nights break Neng Cinta," said the man across the street.

"Yes, it's okay. Hm ... What's going on at night like this calling me?"

"That's Neng, just want to tell you that Eneng should never come to the house."

"Why is that?"

"I'm afraid Neng Cinta will meet again with Eneng's ex-husband. Aa Willi tea yesterday came to Aldi again, he persuaded Aldi while continuing to beg Aldi to move to a new house that A Willi had prepared. A Willi said he didn't want to lose the only precious place for him because he said there were a lot of memories in that house."

"So?"

"Yes, Aldi finally collapsed, too, Neng. He was the same Sari moved to the house that had been bought by A Willi, continued Neng Cinta's house now occupied by A Willi," said Asep.

Silent love. Breathe as much air as possible, hoping that by doing so he no longer has trouble breathing.

"Miss! Neng Love!"

"Yes Mang, what's wrong?"

"Neng Cinta denger, did Mamang say?" Ask the middle-aged man.

"Yes Mang, Love is horrifying."

"Keep what would Neng Cinta do?"

"There is no Mang. Let everything go according to God's destiny. I've been trying to hide, to avoid the man, but if God finally brings us back together, I can only hope that everything will be okay."

"Yes already Neng if so, Mamang close first yes phone. Sorry to interrupt your break."

"Nothing Mang, thank you for coming. I'm sorry if I often take care of Mamang."

"Yes Neng is okay. Sorry also if Mamang often disturb Neng Cinta."

"It's okay, Mang. Yeah, I hung up on him."

"Yes Neng."

Love put his phone back. It seems like tonight he won't be able to sleep. Many questions have sprung up and are centered on just that one object. Why did William even seem to be on the lookout for him after being cut off from the relationship between them?
