The Marriage Order

S2 We're Crazy

The atmosphere in the waiting room became tense. There were no other waiters there, as the ICU patient of the day was only Kak Baruna.

Brother Reza looked at Mr. Reynand with fiery face, so infuriated beyond measure. I've never seen him up to this. Even Kak Dita looks afraid to see her lover angry.

"Rey, you better get out of here!" Reza's sister drove the man away.

She smiled faintly in response to her words, "Only Sheryl has the right to expel me."

Reza's sister looks closed her eyes. His hands were clenching to raise fists. However, I immediately prevented my brother from acting further.

"Sister, don't make a fuss again. I'll talk to him." I looked at Brother Reza's face while shaking my head. Reza's sister gave a handkerchief from behind her pocket.

"Well your tears with it. I don't want to see you cry anymore. Especially in the man's arms" he said.

I just nodded, then took her to the cafe in the first-floor lobby. Mr. Reynand walking beside me said nothing. His face looked expressionless.

The man pushed the entrance made of thick glass and let me enter first. I went to an empty table in the corner of the room.

"What did you order?"

"Orange juice," I replied while sitting down.

"All right," he said and went to order.

Suddenly a song from a famous singer, Pinkan Mambo titled 'Himself' is soft.

When I first looked inside you

I'm so sure this is love

Look at him, I think I'm the same

I love you and love him

I don't want to live without happiness

I am happy when I have so much love

For you to be faithful, yet live a feeling of emptiness

Not that I'm a bastard

I'm just looking for pleasure

My heart can't lie

This love is for you

And for himself

And when we disappear between us

Not back forever

I can't be alone looking for it anymore

I'm not gonna waste any time

Without love I languish

My heart can't lie

This love is for you

And for himself

And if between us .…

I was silent waiting for Mr. Reynand to bring my order. Swallowing saliva heard word for word that flowed melodiously.

Why should there be such a song? It made me go crazy thinking about the man in front of me and my death-defying fiancee.

Not long ago Mr. Reynand returned with a glass of orange juice and a glass of ice americano. The man then sat in front of me. He sighed and looked at her with his gentle face.

"So, how?" tanyakanya.

"What how is it?" I asked back while sipping orange juice.

"Where are we going to get our relationship?" ask again.

"As I said before, we haven't even started any relationship yet" I said.

"Yes, and now I'm waiting for your decision."

"My decision remains the same. I just want to be happy with Baruna" I replied.

Mr. Reynand sighed, "But you have to take responsibility for my feelings."

"Because later in your womb there will be our child."

"Remain assured?" I smiled grinning.

"of course. You how? Are you sure that Baruna will take you back? Your honor I've taken away" he said with a smile. He then sipped his ice americano.

He could have said that so easily. I don't know what his head is made of.

"It's my risk" I said.

"What about the deal? Surely your father will not be able to pay his debt. If you can, your company will be in danger of bankruptcy. At least, if you choose to be with me, I will help ease the burden on your family" he explained.

I swallowed spit. His words are nothing wrong. However, I stayed in my stance. Either way, my happiness is only with Kak Baruna.

"Why silence? Just thinking? Your position is not strong at all. People will think how low the Kusuma family's daughters are. Give up her honor while drunk with her fiance's half-brother." Mr. Reynand smiled.

I took a deep breath and exhaled, trying to think clearly.

"I haven't thought about it. Baruna's recovery is paramount."

"Well, you can think about it slowly. I'll keep waiting" he smiled.

Her smile, which was so sweet, hypnotized me for a moment. I immediately turned my eyes in another direction. Afraid that he'll get bigger.

"Sher ...," he called.

I turned towards Mr. Reynand, "What else?"

He suddenly stood up, slightly bent down, and brought his face closer to mine, with the distance of the small table in the way. A brief kiss landed on my forehead.

"Hey, what are you doing?!" angry seruku. He began to dare to do such a thing.

"Just a kiss baby" she said with a smile.

I shook my head and put on my lips, very angry at him__rubbing my forehead with my sleeves.

"Basic crazy!" I said, immediately stood up and stepped out of the cafe leaving the man.

Goddamnit! Mr. Reynand fucking! Basic don't know yourself! Perverted men!

I went back to the ICU waiting room. Brother Dita and sister Reza are still there. Their faces look sad.

"Hows it? Is there progress?" my many.

Reza shook his head. I sighed, always feeling disappointed when my hope was always dashed knowing that he had not woken up from his sleep. Then immediately sat my body next to Sister Reza.

"That guy, is he home yet?" ask Reza.

"It."

"You talk about anything?"

"Eitherway. He's crazy!"

"Huf .... Don't let him come near you and never let down our family and the Baruna family. You know, they love you so much" he said, staring intently at me.

"Za, don't put too much pressure on Sheryl." Suddenly, Dita interjected.

"Honey, he should be told. My sister can't be firm on anything!" reply Brother Reza.

"Let them do their own thing. You know, your sister's an adult. He must be able to take responsibility for his life" said Kak Dita again.

Brother Dita is right. I have to take responsibility for my own life. But what if it is like this?

"Dek, look Dita's defending you. You must take responsibility for your life carefully. I really don't like Reynand. After all, you have to remember about the agreement. The dead life of the company is in your hands."

Reza's words made me even more confused. When the options of forward and backward go awry. I don't know what to do next. Can only hope Kak Baruna who is aware and healed from his coma.

"Can we not talk about it? Even Kak Baruna was not aware of his coma. My brother should understand my feelings. I'm still so sad about my fiancee. Brother's got me depressed."

"What makes your heart depressed? Is it because your love is divided in two?" brother Reza's question is so striking right about my heart.

"Reza!" Dita tried to interrupt.

"Let me talk, Dit. I've been wanting to say this for a long time. Ever since that guy came into my sister's life. She became an unbiased woman."

My tears suddenly came back. I think I'm being tried by my brother. He was still staring hard at me. Waiting for an answer to what I will give him.

"Look, it's usually just crying. Seeking forgiveness!" he added when he saw me shed tears that were getting louder.

"You're outrageous, Za!" Dita got up from her seat, then hugged me and calmed me down.

In Kak Dita's arms, I cried so much, so sad to admit one hundred percent of what Kak Reza said was the truth. How evil I am to Baruna. Imagine my life would be doomsday if he didn't forgive me.
