The Last First Love
CHAPTER 117
Today is exactly 2 years of marriage Fandi and Laura. Unlike other couples who celebrate the anniversary of their marriage, Fandi and Laura are busy with their respective affairs. As usual Laura will spend the whole night with her Australian lover Samuel. While Fandi chose to communicate with his best friend Riko in Indonesia. Fandi decides to enlist Riko's help taking care of her divorce with Laura, as it happens that Riko is a lawyer. Fandi entrusts Riko to take care of all her divorce proceedings.
“Fandi, I go first.” Laura said as she left the house.
“Oh yes, I have registered our divorce lawsuit to the religious court in Indonesia.” Said Fandi remained focused staring at the screen of his phone.
“Good. By the way who are you chatting with? So serious. Have you got a new wife?” Ask Laura a little probing.
“What is your business?” Fandi replied flatly still without looking at Laura.
“Huuftt.. Have we not made peace? What's wrong the hell are you being nice to me a little?” Laura asked again to sing her lips to hear Fandi's answer that was still sniffling at her.
“Alright, I don't want to argue. I was chatting with my best friend Riko. Coincidentally he's a lawyer who will take care of all our divorce proceedings.” Obviously Fandi stopped his activities.
“Okee.. Then I'm walking now. I'm gonna spend the night with Sam weekly. You're fine at home, my husband Fandi. Do not forget to wash your face, hands and feet! Brush your teeth before going to bed too! Hahaha.” Ledek Laura as she waved her hand leaving Fandi.
“Basic!” Reply Fandi grunts.
Laura came out of the house laughing mischievously at Fandi. Laura then got into her car and drove her car away from her residence.

“It turns out like this is finally my wedding. Marriage not based on love.” Celoteh Fandi while keeping her phone in a pants pocket.
Fandi then went into his room to rest. As usual, Fandi always spends her own week nights at home. Despite having a wife, he still passed her alone.
“And Orange is my wife. Maybe it won't be this lonely. Every night, huufft.. I miss you Orange. Although now you've forgotten me and are happy with your little family. I still can't kill this love.” Fandi. He lay down while staring at the screen of his cellphone which is still displaying photos of Orange.
Every day every night even every second Fandi still remembers Orange. The years that Orange left her were never enough to make her stop loving Orange. Even his 2-year marriage meant nothing to Fandi. He was still thinking of the orange.
Orange is Fandi's first love. The only love that ever came into his life. Love always motivates him. And that love also makes him numb to feel another love.
“So, I always hope to have a chance to see you again. Even though it's too late. But I want to straighten out all the misunderstandings that happened between us 6 years ago. I know that nothing will change everything. Even if there's no chance to talk to you again. At least I want to see your face and make sure that you really live happily without me.” Fandi's voice is getting raucous. He began to cling to the tightness in his chest.
“I love you Orange. I still love you. I still love you so much. I don't know when? I never wanted this love to go out of my heart. I want to love you always. Always like this.” This time Fandi closed his eyes while imagining his Jingga face.
