The Marriage of an Old Friend

chapter 25. keep your distance

"Where can you keep your distance from the Dika bang for a while?"

"yes?" dara put back a glass of juice that was just about to drink. stared inside Widya and listened to what the speech meant.

"you know right, me and bang Dika betrothed.I want to know more closely what kind of bang Dika. But you always mess up, sorry yes. bang Dika always goes away suddenly every get a call from you. can't you solve your own problems?.does it always have to bang Dika who solves your problems?," the world of bang Dika is not just pivoting to you, right".

Widya is forced to talk like this, otherwise told the virgin will not understand.she wants to get closer to her future husband, know his habits, the way he gets angry even his favorite movie. Widya wants to know the slightest thing about Dika, but with the virgin who continues to look for Dika if she needs something, she becomes unable to freely and feels disturbed. sounds a little nasty but Widya doesn't care.

dara was silent, her fingers hooked each other in her lap. Widya's speech seemed to slap her completely. Has she been too attached to Dika like a hammer?. little Dika even a small thing like there is a mouse in his room was looking for Dika. his life is more with Dika in appeal to others even his own lover.

"i beg you."

dara felt even more uneasy when she saw Widya clenching her pleading hand to her.

a few moments after his virgin chuckled, making Widya confused.What is with this girl in front of her?.

"ah so geez just relax Widya. from tomorrow I will keep my distance with Dika. you do not have to fear yes. I will not take Dika from you, I will not take Dika from you, Dika is not my level sorry yes I already have a girlfriend hehe." dara replied with a big smile as beautiful as a sunflower.

"ah you've a boyfriend turns out. surely he's a lucky man to be able to get a girl as beautiful as you." said Widya.

"jeez it's too much, I'm not that pretty. Even Dika who is lucky can get a girl as sweet as you." praise dara sincerely.

the two halted the conversation as Dika came, the man looked at the two women in front of him in turn.

"what's wrong with them?"

from the direction of the restaurant door, a masculine voice sounded calling out.

"sad"

Sinta and melody simultaneously turned to the origin of the voice.the melody smiled widely, waving at the owner of the voice.

"honey here." answered the melody.

"Love, introduce her to my husband" said the melody introducing her husband.

the man squinted his eyes, recalling as if he knew the woman in front of him.

"are you Sinta, Soni's wife?" ask the husband melody.

"ex-wife to be exact." replied Sinta briefly.

"ah sorry yes. I'm Doni her coworker Soni used to be in Jakarta. she had a lot of stories about you first. I did not expect you to split up, even though Soni always prides you on us. I'm so sad, yeah." Doni did not think that the couple who had always been his inspiration to dare to marry first even now divorced.

turning to his wife, Doni was astonished since when the melody befriended Sinta.

"sad where's jelita? why isn't he with you?" tanya Doni looked around but did not also find the whereabouts of her daughter.

"it's on the Playground dearly with Ciko and her mother Sinta. we chatted and ate for a while here." replied the melody gently.

"well, you go first I catch up." replied the melody.

"okay, don't be long." Doni got up and left the restaurant, following his daughter who was playing with her new friend.

"Love I have to go, next time we chat again yeah.don't hate me Sinta." melody waved out of the restaurant.

Sinta who is now alone squeezes her hair.why it becomes like this, why should she meet the melody and chat with her.if not meet her she must still not know what happened in the past. accepting the fact that his decision was wrong was the least he wanted.

dara put forward her motor matic softly, staring around the street filled with temaran lights. Widya's speech still ringing in her head. not wanting to go, even more disturbing to the heart.

"the world bang Dika doesn't just pivot on you"

has Dara been too close to Dika?

is it too much trouble?

dara admitted with Dika to make him calm but he did not realize it had been Dika filled his world.

when sad he will run and squander into his embrace.if he is happy virgin will pull Dika's hand and invite her to dance to feel also the happiness that he is feeling. in times of confusion Dika always managed to help him solve the problem.

there is no day without a message to his best friend, but is it all excessive?. does he really have to keep his distance because Dika will soon be engaged?.

can't they still be friends even if they both have their own partners?.

dara pulled over her motorbike, sitting next to the sidewalk.The girl lowered her head, hiding her face between her knees.

dara clucked as the phone rang, seeing Dika's name on her phone screen caused her to stop answering the call.

there were some incoming messages also from Dika, as usual asked if dara had reached home, but the message was only read, as well as, in just ignore and then turn off his cellphone and put it in a bag. Dara wants to be alone, he wants to contemplate everything himself with the night wind that feels cooler tonight.

Dika who had reached the house was astonished to see his message ignored without reply.His call stopped without answer.

"bang, I want to talk." Ms. Rani who saw her son just came home immediately called.

"what's wrong, ma'am?" Dika put his cellphone into his pants pocket, staring at the face of the woman who had given birth to him.

"sit bang."

now the mother and son were sitting in the living room, a rare sight.

"you will be engaged and married, I hope you can be a responsible husband, dear wife. avoid your girlfriend because it can hurt your wife later." Ms. Rani tried to speak as softly as possible so that her son would not be offended.

"what do you mean mother?" Dika asked, trying to guess the direction of his mother's conversation.

"dara, you shouldn't be too close to her. There is no friendship between a man and a woman bang. surely one of them harbors different feelings.is mother right?" asked Bu Rani, he had often noticed the closeness of his son with the virgin.

Dika was silent, he did not know what to answer.
