Still Max POV's.
I immediately started the car engine and immediately slid towards the big market. With full speed and worry that I can't hold anymore.
Once I got to the big market, I immediately parked the car after turning once because I could not find a car that was used by my wife, children and mother.
On the other side I met Igo who took his team to enter the market, looking for the whereabouts of the psychopath.
"Why come here? We're not saying you're here directly." Igo rebuked me because I showed up in this market.
"Mom, Shilla, my son was saying goodbye to go to this market too, he said," I said with eyes that kept looking around.
"What are you really?"
I nodded in response to a question from Igo without staring at him. Then Igo spontaneously contacted his partner through a tool, asking his friend to immediately get out of the market.
Suddenly, my phone rings again.
πΆ
My location unknown tryna find a way back home to you again
I gota get back to you gota get back to you
My location unknown tryna find a way back home to you again
I gota get back to you gota get back to you
πΆ
I quickly reached out, took the thin object out of my pants pocket and saw my wife's name appear on the screen, and received the call.
"Hallo, where are you?" manya panic.
Then on the other side Shilla replied casually, if he and mamah did not go to a big market but to a supermarket. Because when it reached the market, suddenly Iceland cried because it could not stand the smell of a large market that was quite stinging the nose.
As soon as I heard all that, I felt like I could breathe with great relief. My heart felt like it could return to normal. Then I immediately sent Shilla home when she was done shopping.
"Where?" ask Igo after I'm done disconnecting the phone with Shilla.
"They turned out not to be here, now again at the supermarket deket house," I said while holding Igo's shoulder which then he patted my shoulder.
"Go home, let this be my business." Igo said with his voice, making me stare more and more at him. "I made sure to catch him."
As soon as I heard all that said from Igo's mouth, I was able to breathe with great relief. He is Reza's number one confidant. Whatever Reza assigned to him was always right and done. Even Reza dared to pay dearly for his performance in the black world.
But not only that. The way Igo does everything is very organized and neat. To make an accuracy point on each mission he worked on right with the target.
Then Igo received news from his men and immediately said goodbye to me. "Go home, I'll tell you about the progress."
Igo ran into the big market and disappeared in the middle of the crowd of other humans who were doing their trading activities.
I can now breathe deeply and then step back into my car. Turn on the car engine and then go out of the market area. Leaving Igo and his men in the market.
I paused my intention to go to the office this morning, after a long time I thought I had finally decided to put myself off. Immediately I sent a short message that I addressed to my office receptionist. To inform my absence at the office today.
Ever since Reza went to London and settled there to take care of the company there, I never again had a secretary. I can only trust my own instincts, to do all my work. Reza helped me from there. Distance has never been an excuse for not helping each other. Therefore, for the meeting schedule and others, I leave it to the office receptionist.
Once I got home, I was again surprised by a car perched parked in front of the house. Not the car that Shilla used, but rather a car someone I thought he wouldn't dare to come to this house.
Yeah, who else if not Alex's car that automatically there will be Lisa. And sure enough, as soon as I entered the house, Alex was already sitting inside in the living room. I greeted him.
"Hi, how are you? Long time no look," I said mince words.
"Yes, sorry to be here." Alex welcomes my hand that crucifies him. Then I sat down next to him. I looked back into the backyard and I saw Lisa sitting next to Tika.
βββββ
Tika POVs.
This morning was so bright. The sun seemed timid to reveal itself. But I still insist on bringing my two children to sunbathe. Accompanied by Max's second child, Feli. Because her mom put it to me. Yes, Shilla wants to go to the market with mama and also Iceland.
Jefri had also left for his office after finishing breakfast with me earlier. So did Max, we had a chat for a while, before he finally decided to go to his office.
I haven't reprimanded him in a long time. More precisely since I lived in this mama house. Not because I was angry with him, not because I was disappointed in him. But because of myself.
I feel guilty for him. Even if it's just his past. But still, I was a barrier to their feelings. That makes Lisa have that kind of personality.
As I got more and more dissolved in my own mindset. Suddenly bi Mince came to disperse all my daydreams. Then give me a glass of sussu. A drink I drank two hours after eating.
Tinctong!
Bi Mince immediately walked towards the front door to see who was coming. Left me drinking sussu earlier. After the drink ran out, I went back to check on the state of the three children in front of me, in their respective stroller. They are still sound asleep.
I began to take back the Sherlock Holmes series of novels that I had not yet finished reading. To keep me company with the three of them this morning.
Suddenly the voice of a woman I knew called my name. Slowly, even impressed very heart-wrenching. How not, the sound he let out was followed by a sobbing.
"Relope ...."
Then suddenly both of his hands grabbed me from the side.
To this extent, I actually already knew who that woman was. It's just, it seems my eyes are reluctant to see it, let alone just to ascertain the truth who the owner of the voice is.
Again, my eyes cannot lie. I put the novel I read next to me. With a little mix of feelings that involved me to do that. I saw his face leaning on my shoulder.
"Sorry, I don't know if you were in an accident that night. And sorry, I never showed up to see you in the hospital," I said slowly.
That woman is Lisa. She hugged me tighter, complete with sobs that accompanied her every breath.
I don't want to be an angel or something that's forgiving. But that doesn't mean I shouldn't be generous, right?
I don't want to think of myself as always right. But at least I can admit that I have a mistake, right?
For me, our story is too complicated. Too difficult to describe, finding the root or origin of this problem is not an easy matter.
But believe in one thing. A true friend is not a friend who is always with us without problems. But he still chose us to get through his problems.
"I'm the one who should be apologizing. I don't deserve to live like this. The envy that blinded my heart. You sacrificed your life for me. I'm sorry."
My tears heard him say sentence after sentence that shook from his cries. Lisa had never uttered an apology this sincerely.
Even when I slapped him, he forgave me. When I had a misunderstanding with my husband, he helped me. He also always accompanied me, when I had a schedule to check-up content. So right now, is it worth it that I don't forgive him?
After all, I only have her who deserves to be my best friend.
I stroked her hand that was holding me tightly. "Don't you wanna try carrying your niece? They have been waiting for the onty to come" I whispered.
Lisa let go of her arms and raised her face to look at me. Now it is seen if his innocent face has been wet due to the tears he released earlier. The rest of his sobbing was also still heard occasionally. I smiled and took the tissue under my son's carriage and gave it to him.
"Jek knows that it's so crying," my god mocked him.
Lisa immediately returned to throw her arms at me. Now even tighter than before. I returned the trap. Then put my chin on his shoulder, while stroking his back.
Honestly, I miss the hug of a friend like her. From his life, I learned many things. Maybe he can't learn from his own life, but I can. Maybe he can't be grateful for his life, but I can. And because of all that I forgive him.
"Don't cry anymore." I tried to calm him down again, because suddenly I heard him sobbing again.
"Sorry, don't stay alone" Lisa said.
Then suddenly my tears fell upon me hearing him say that sentence. I asked him not to leave her. Maybe I'm not as strong as I used to be at hiding my own feelings.
"You can get your happiness if you're not as bad as yourself. You don't have to apologize to anyone. Apologize to yourself," I cried more and more as I felt her nodding her head.
It feels good to be back with Lisa through my day. Because I know, there's an apology that doesn't need to be said with words. There is also an apology that will disappear by itself with the passage of time. There is also an apology that can be lost with just smiles and tears.
