The Love of the Former

The Love of the Former
DCSM chapter 53



I was determined and really wanted to forget. Forgetting everything that happened in the past. No longer want to feel like I betrayed Valdi who was too good for me. He who daily spoils me with his affection.


Like tonight, we who are both morning shifts of course in the afternoon have been contracted. Valdi's taking me down the street downtown. At 7pm we leave. With a bang we travel casually while telling stories.


I love her, I still love her. I'm still trying to let go of everything that's stuck in my heart. Especially letting go of my memories and trying to build new memories with my husband.


There are a lot of things we talk about. Neither me nor Valdi tried to be open. Whatever we told you without anyone missing. But I, of course I still keep one story that I can't tell him yet.


The Imam's story about Mas Pri did disturb my mind a little, only a little. Because I don't want to know more about him. Old wounds should heal and return to normal.


There is nothing wrong or to blame. Neither me nor Mas Pri, nor our love. It's never wrong because everything is on the right track. But circumstances and time make everything go wrong.


"Yank, what do you want to eat?" Valdi parked the bike we were driving.


We were still on the road because we had not yet reached the city center which was our destination to spend the night. A night together like this is very difficult for us to get. Most of my shifs are noon and come home around 10 p.m.


In the moments when there was a chance then we could play spend the night. I looked around, there lined the usual 5 foot traders. No one interests me. I shook my head while tightening my arms around her waist.


He took my hand and brought it to the front of his mouth, kissing it affectionately. Luckily, not many people were there, because our position was still on the bike near the parking lot.


"habit." I pinched his waist and my husband just laughed.


"Yes, sneak yuk. I want to see the bubbles, usually if there's still a game at this hour."


The motor drove, towards a large park located in the city center. This place is always crowded especially if the weekend arrives. And sure enough, the park has been crowded by visitors. After parking we immediately entered and looked for a place where the bubble players were.


Joining the teenagers dating, we walked while throwing jokes at each other.


"There, yank. Let's go there!!"


Valdi pulled me to the place he was pointing at. And sure enough, there were 3 young men playing bubbles. The circle is made of soap foam like I used to play as a kid. Bubble bubbles are scattered with the highlight of the garden lights from a distance make them look shiny.


I cheered happily, Valdi hugged me from behind and placed his chin on my shoulder. I who was as tall as his shoulder immediately disappeared when he grabbed me.


"Likes?" I'm nodding.


Arguably our two dates were done after marriage. A very short courtship period was only 3 months before we decided to get married. We just ate and talked about it. It's rare that we can go out together like tonight.


"I love you." His whisper in my ear with a small peck on my cheek after his.
