The Injured Heart

Chapters. 70. Yanto Upset On Bagas

Andrian just came out of the bathroom while drying his hair with a towel. The phone screen is on. Andrian approached her and saw a short message from Retha.

[Mas Andrian doesn't have to come here. I'll be with Bian.]

Andrian put his phone back. Pupus is hoping to live with Retha. The girl he loved so much chose to turn away from him. Instantly the shadow of the marriage that he dreamed of long ago disappeared.

Andrian groaned in frustration. The relationship broke down in the last days leading up to the wedding. Although Retha has not decided anything, with his attitude alone, Andrian believes Retha has chosen Bian.

Slowly tears began to flow through his face. The tightness in his chest just exploded. As if a curse to her and her mother, always failed in marriage. Andrian bowed. His body slumped to the floor. The destruction haunts him so much.

Geck.. Geck.. Tok

The sound of knocking on the door and the call of Bu Nunik was heard. Immediately Andrian rubbed his face with a towel and rushed to open the door.

"Older le open the door? Why are your eyes red? You sick?" asked Bu Nunik while putting the back of his hand on Andrian's forehead

"Ah, not Ma. Andrian just sleeps less hehe. Most of the time it might be gini." Andrian looked for an excuse

"Oalah Le, the day after you get married. Not good most of them are literate. Ntar pas ijab qobul sleepy again." said Bu Nunik

Andrian smiled in response to Bu Nunik's words.

"Yes Le, you get ready. Later between mama first yes, to the house of Mr. Dhe you want to ask for help to be a witness to your marriage" said Ms. Nunik

"Yes Ma. Andrian get ready first." Andrian said back into his room.

Both of his eyes looked at the room. The room that was supposed to be the beginning of her married life with Retha, now she will live alone again. Andrian stared at the king-size bed he had just replaced a few days ago, some furniture tailored to Retha's wishes. Also, the decoration for the bridal room she prepared would simply be neglected.

Andrian took a deep breath, trying to reduce the tightness in his chest. Not wanting to dissolve in sadness, Andrian immediately prepared to deliver Bu Nunik.

In office...

Andrian just got out of his car when Retha opened the gate. Their gazes met at a glance, before Andrian finally cut off contact with Retha. Andrian passed by as if he had never known Retha.

Retha was stunned, staring at Andrian's back which was getting further away. No more friendly greetings like the beginning he got to this office. There was no joke and casual chatter Andrian could always make him laugh.

Rethah shed tears. He missed Andrian. It was like running and hugging Andrian tightly but he could not do it.

Retha wiped her tears and walked towards the office. Inside the room, he also passed by the Son who passed by him just like that. He exists but it's like there isn't. His world collapsed, turning 180 degrees. The beautiful color he had painted with Andrian became an endless dark gray.

Retha can no longer. He was crying on his desk. His heart ached, as if unable to bear this burden alone. "I have to finish today. I can't delay any more!"

In the afternoon..

Rethas left the office first. It looks like Bian is ready on his bike.

"Where are you going?" ask her with a bright face

"We go to the park City" said Retha briefly.

Bian's motorbike drove to where Retha wanted it. Bian pulled Rethas hands together to hold her tighter. The piggybacked Rethas only complied without protest.

The motor was stopped in front of a pendopo at the end of the park. Looks like the yellow lights are starting to light up. The long chairs lined up neatly arranged beautifully. Give the impression of a romantic young man there.

"Bian, I want to say something." said Retha seriously

"Gue already knows what you want to talk to me about" Bian said with a smile

Retha's forehead frowned. "It is good that you know An. So I don't have to worry about making it clear."

"No need to say anything Tha. I know the answer. It must be, right?" guess Bian

"meaning?" ask Retha back

"Must answer yes. I'm making a choice, right?" bian made sure

Retha laughed bitterly. "Unfortunately that's not what I mean An."

Bian looked at Retha's face looking straight ahead.

"I think it's time for An. I can't keep this up for too long."

Retha turned her head towards Bian who was beside her.

"We've done this charade. Enough of all the pretenses between me and you."

Bian closed his eyes for a moment trying to digest every word Retha said.

"Pretending? You mean what Tha?" bian said in disbelief

"I'm sorry I made you wish I was more. To be honest, everything I did to you wasn't real. I'm trying to give you that chance, I guess it can bring my feelings back to you An. But, as far as I try. I'm sober.."

"This feeling is long gone. There's nothing about you in it at all." said Retha

Bian bowed with all the disappointment on his face.

"Why do you have Tha? You never said it from the beginning. Lu biarin I spent a few days I was in vain! Just for the fake love Lu never had. I don't think there's a girl like Lu!" bian said not to accept

Reth laughed again. Miris. It turns out that's what Bian's original character was. Selfish and unwilling to give up.

"How come you are the same? You rejected me many times An. You just disappeared. You never take my feelings seriously An. And now you're back, when I want to marry someone else. You should be ashamed of An! Shame to come and cancel my wedding plans!" said Retha evaporated his emotions.

"But what is it? You just widened the distance between me and Mas Andrian with your attitude and words! You underestimate him, as if you're just a good man to me." continued Retha

Bian. Observing every word of Rethah. Rtha was right, she was a real coward. The one who fears defeat and regards his love as a competition. He forces to compete with Andrian when Rethah's wedding day is decided. It was a fatal mistake he had made.

"Now I know everything An. This is the most appropriate decision for me. I'll still be married to Mas Andrian. So I beg you. Don't ever come near me again for any reason!" retha tried to stand up

"Goodbye Bian. Hope you can get a better woman than me."

Retha ran away leaving Bian still in the chair. Moans sounded from his mouth. Retha ignored him and stayed away. Her cheeks were wet with tears.

"I can finally finish everything well. I need to see Mas Andrian. I have to explain everything so that he doesn't misunderstand me anymore." she said
