The Sanctity of Tarnished Love

Meet With Ken

A beautiful woman was staring at her reflection in the mirror. Her petite body, clad in a maroon-red long dress with a ribbon decoration on her waist. His long hair was neatly carried, leaving a little in the front, and left dangling just like that. His oval-shaped face is covered in thin-thin makeup. Looks beautiful, and natural. High hells light brown color, looks adorn his legs white, and smooth.

He is Dusk. He smiled with satisfaction as he looked at his pretty perfect appearance. Then she grabbed her phone on the table, and read a short message from her husband. It turned out that Fajar was already on his way, soon he would arrive at his apartment.

"Isn't my face pretty enough Brother" said Dusk as he watched her face from the mirror.

Round eyes, sharp nose, small and ripe lips, and dimples that adorn his cheeks. Not a bad picture, it's just that his posture is not high slim like the top model. His body was small, and tiny, yet quite wacky, and quite eye-catching.

But suddenly the smile on her sullen lips faded. Now the lips are even manyun, and look pouty. His mind glared away considering about Adara. The face, and posture of the woman was much more perfect compared to her. Again, his confidence began to falter.

When Dusk was still late in his daydream, suddenly the door of the room opened. Seen there, a sturdy, handsome male figure was standing glued to the doorway. He was stunned as he stared at the reflection of Dusk's face from inside the mirror.

The twilight, awakened by the presence of Dawn, looked up, and lifted up his face. Their eyes met, and it was as if each of them were revealing the contents of his heart through a blind look.

"You're so beautiful Dusk. I feel like I want to have you right now, but circumstances force me not to. There's a lot of things in me that you don't know, I'm sorry Twilight. It may hurt you, but how else, it's all gone, and I can't turn back time." Inner Dawn gripped the doorknob tightly.

"I can't interpret the look in your eyes Brother. Sometimes full of love, but sometimes full of turmoil, which I cannot afford to dive into. Actually what happened, is there something you're hiding from me. Since returning home from Singapore, your attitude has begun to change, Brother." Inner Dusk while biting his lips.

"Are you ready, baby?" ask Fajar while stepping closer to his wife.

"So Brother." replied Dusk slowly. His eyes looked at the shadow of Dawn standing right behind him.

Dawn seemed to raise her hand, and was about to caress Dusk's hair. But in just a matter of seconds, Dawn undoes her intentions. He lowered his hand, and turned his face away.

"Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes" said Fajar as he walked away.

Dusk glanced at the departure of Dawn with an erratic feeling.

"That's how bad I was in your eyes, brother, so you have no interest in me at all. Then why did you declare your love for me, propose to me, and marry me? What is really in your heart, Dawn?" inner Dusk while squeezing the end of her dress.

Shortly after, Dawn came out of the bathroom. His good looks look more perfect in trousers, and a dark blue shirt. Dusk turned his face away, trying to hold the clear circle that had piled in his eyes.

"Let's go, baby!" take Fajar while holding the fingers of Dusk.

Dusk turned his head, looking at the handsome face of her husband who was in front of her. Dawn smelled a sweet smile on her lips, then the man lowered his head, and kissed Dusk's forehead long enough.

"You're so pretty!" praise Fajar while rubbing the cheek of Dusk.

Dusk lowered his head, hiding his face that was beginning to blush. Although he was disappointed, but in fact Dusk could not lie to his heart. He still loves Dawn, and it will melt with his gentle demeanor.

"Bag Dawn!" call Dusk while lifting his face, and also get up from his seat. Now Dusk was standing right in front of Dawn, looking at her husband's eyes fixedly.

"Do you like my appearance like this?" tanya Dusk while putting her hand on Dawn's neck.

"Whatever you look like, I've always liked it. I love you so much dear." replied Dawn while clutching the waist of Dusk.

"I love you too Brother, I can't wait to get the fruit of our love" said Dusk as he rolled his eyes.

The body of Dawn froze when he heard the word 'fruit of love' spoken by his wife. His heart started beating faster, and sweat spots began to wet his forehead. Slowly Dawn let go of her grip, and she rubbed her face violently.

"Darling, let's go. It's not nice if we arrive late" Fajar said as he tried to smile. He stared at the circular clockwork in his hand, in order to avoid the glare of the twilight eyes that were very sniffing.

"Come on!" answer Dusk while returning the smile of Dawn. It was as if he was unaware of the change in Dawn's attitude.

***

At exactly 08.00 pm Dawn, and Dusk arrived at the wedding location. Dawn stopped the car in the parking lot that had been provided. Dawn, and Dusk get out of the car together.

Without saying many words, Dawn wrapped her hands around the waist of Dusk. Cuddling him with affection, as if he were telling the world that Dusk was his.

They continued to step up, and joined the many guests who were already present first. A few pairs of eyes, looking at them with a look of admiration. Such a beautiful twilight, coupled with such a beautiful Dawn, is truly a matching couple. But among the many eyes that looked, there was one pair of eyes that looked with envious gazes, or jealousy more precisely.

The owner of the eye was a young man with slightly shaggy hair, looking handsome in trousers, and a short white shirt. Two buttons on the top left open, revealing a necklace with a small shell pendant. He was Kenzo Antonio Putra, the man who had been his lover of Twilight for five years.

Ken stared at Dusk, and Dawn while gripping the glass he was holding. The hand-grip of Dawn at the waist of Dusk really hurt his eyes. In the past, he was the one who always held the hand of Dusk, hugged him, and kissed him. But now, all these are memories. Because of his mistake, Dusk left, and did not want to forgive him again.

Ken took a sip of his drink, imagining that Dusk was making his throat dry, and sick. Suddenly a man came to him. He is Nicko, his best friend.

"Move on Ken, don't be shackled by the story of the past." seduced Nicko as he patted Ken on the shoulder. He laughed while sitting next to Ken.

"He's too perfect Nick, even to forget his memories, I'm having a hard time" said Ken, slipping his hair down his face.

"He's married to Ken, you want to be third" Nicko said.

"If he wants why not." replied Ken with a slanted smile.

"You're crazy!" snapped Nicko.

"I went crazy, a second after she cut her ties with me" Ken said.

"Mistake yourself you were close to Kania!" syndicated Nicko.

"I was just helping him, I didn't mean anything. But Aya misunderstood, and did not want to listen to my explanation" Ken said quickly. Aya is Ken's call to Dusk.

"Any woman would misunderstand Ken. Try to explain it to him first, before you help Kania. It's not going to be like this" Nicko said, staring at Ken.

Ken did not reply, he just smiled as he looked straight ahead. Dawn was talking with her colleague, while Dusk, she sat alone in the corner of the room sipping her drink. Ken got up from his seat, and walked away. He ignored Nicko's screams calling his name.

Ken continued to step closer to Dusk, the woman who had been enthroned throughout the space in his heart. Ken smiled, as he looked at the beautiful face he had always missed.

"Yes!" call Ken while standing right in front of Dusk.

Dusk shocked. Aya, all this time only one person called her Aya. Dusk looked up, staring at the figure of the man standing in front of him.

The twilight Heart beat rapidly as it looked at Ken who was smiling at him, a smile that remained as charming as ever. Long enough never met, but the figure of Ken still does not change. Her hairstyle, dress style, and clam necklace that still hang beautifully on her neck. A necklace once given by Dusk, as a birthday gift.

"How are you, Aya?" asked Ken while raising his eyebrows.

"You loved me long enough, it can't be that easy as you forget me. Tell me, if Dawn is just your escape Aya!" inner Ken while staring at Dusk.

Seriate......
