THE NO-MAN'S LOVE
24. NO MORE HOPE
I just need support and prayer to fight my illness. Didn't expect more than that because I know how our relationship is so far. However, when I wanted to convey honesty to him, he first gave me a surprise that immediately stopped me from doing so. Finally, I decided to no longer harass her, no matter what happened to me and the bond between myself and her.

“Mas Gen?”
Instantly Egidia covered her mouth which had a spontaneous soft voice, when she saw the husband's car which was suddenly seen across the street, entering the apartment area with a large area.
If his vision is not wrong, at first glance he sees the shadow of someone in the driver's side seat. Genio car glass is dark, but with the reflection of sunlight can still show shadows in it.
Why wasn't Mas Gen in the office, and to me he said he was busy and a lot of tasks were piling up?
Not wanting to lose the opportunity to find out the truth, he asked the taxi driver who was boarded to follow the entrance to the parking lot to ensure his expectations.
Luckily, the driver who is a father-father is ready and immediately turns on the turn signal to move to the right lane, so that, because it must rotate the direction on the path provided in front of the modern and present residential area.
Silent traffic accelerates their opportunity to cross and enter the luxury area that provides parking in the basement. As Genio's car descended to the underground floor, the taxi followed the distance of several vehicles that had preceded it.
Egidia searched for the whereabouts of her husband's car which suddenly disappeared. The taxi stopped for a moment at a safe corner. Until finally the driver told Egidia that the vehicle followed stopped at another corner that was still within reach of their current position.
Without turning off the engine, the middle-aged man sitting behind the wheel gave his passengers time to look and pay attention to the intended object. His feelings as an old man felt tempted to help even if only just delivering, after seeing the pale face of Egidia who was wet by tears from the rearview mirror.
From the back seat, the hijab-wearing woman was even more surprised by what she saw later. Her husband got out of the car then turned to the left side and opened the door for someone.
His heart was racing after seeing the figure that descended with the help of Genio's hands, then stood facing each other with a perfectly fluffy smile.
“Monita ...,” murmured very softly with a nanar gaze that increasingly feels hot.
Why did the two of them go to the apartment in office hours like this? Is it for work or personal reasons? Who lives here? Is that woman?
Egidia's tears flowed more and more while she saw the two people she was following walking hand in hand comfortably without any hesitation. In fact, Monita's other hand moved occasionally rubbing Genio's arm spoiled.
Is that how close their relationship has been? Why should they touch when they are not a legal partner? Just friends, said Mas Gen!
However, a little confidence is still left in the heart for the husband, immediately disappeared just like that with his own eyes, Egidia saw the man she loved anchoring a kiss on the cheek of the beautiful woman beside her.
Egidia closed her mouth again, this time without a sound coming out from her lips that continued to tremble violently holding back the still unstoppable crying. It hurt her heart to see the betrayal of her husband, who had no idea how far they were actually related.
Even though their relationship was only limited to black status above white, the woman was still hurt. After all, he had already engaged his deepest feelings in the relationship between himself and Genio.
Why lie, Mom? Why not be honest with me? Maybe it will not be as sad and painful as this if you admit it yourself, not me who caught it.
Until the two different figures disappeared behind the connecting door to the apartment building, then Egidia stopped her crying and tried to regulate her breathing that was still difficult to manage properly and calmly.
He asked the driver to return home, after apologizing for making the order longer. The middle-aged man did not bother about it and had intended to help sincerely.
In fact, he also gave Egidia a bit of encouragement without any intention of patronizing or influencing.
“If a man has dared to play with fire and betray in the back, then consider once again if you want to survive to stay together. Because not only your feelings will be sacrificed, but also your future will be even more bleak if you still choose to continue.”

Staring at the medicines that were taken out of the pouch and laid out on the table, Egidia recalled the verdict that Doctor Kai had given her. About cancer cells that have developed and destroyed parts of the brain little by little, until without realizing it has stepped on an advanced stage.
In fact, from the results of follow-up examinations that have been done completely and thoroughly, it is known that the dangerous cells have spread to other vital organs, including the, so that makes his body's endurance decreases dramatically lately.
He sat behind the desk Genio had bought for him, looking down with his eyes tightly closed. Trying to remember, since when he began to feel abnormalities in his body, especially in the head.
Maybe I can't tell the difference. I only think of it as a regular headache that occasionally appears when the condition of the body is weak and decreased, so susceptible to flu or other mild diseases. It seemed, I had misunderstood the condition of my own body.
Now, regretting his own insensitivity is useless. Everything has happened and can only be done the best and maximum possible treatment. If it can't heal, it can at least extend its life by some time.
Having just calmed down and trying to accept her pain test sincerely, Egidia returned moody as she recalled what she had seen after returning from the hospital. The scenery that was never expected let alone imagined, can be done by her own husband who looks polite and always keeps his eyes let alone touch with the opposite sex.
Is this your choice, Mom? If it is he who can really make you comfortable to ignore me who should be your responsibility completely, I will give up!
I will not hope for you again! I will fight alone to fight this disease of mine, without involving you who have made a choice, to whom to turn and have fun!
