The Sanctity of Tarnished Love

Finding Out About Adara

"Reply answer! What's going on with you guys?" alvin asked in a slightly high voice.

"What do you mean by the question, we're fine Vin, there's nothing between us." replied Fajar with a crisp laugh.

"I'm talking seriously, I saw Dusk's eyes carelessly, he cried last night right?"

"No Vin, you don't misunderstand me. Last night I took her to a partner's wedding, and we got home late. We're newlyweds, so you can cut down, what we do before bed. Dusk is just tired, and sleep deprivation. Sorry maybe I was a little overdone, but how else, we love each other." said Fajar at length, he tried to convince Alvin that the household was fine.

Alvin stared fixedly at Dawn, sighing deeply. This time he chose to believe in the words of Dawn.

"Alright, I believe you" said Alvin, folding his hands to his chest.

"That's great."

"But remember yes, even if you are my best friend, I will never forgive you, if you hurt Dusk. I won't let you make him cry." said Alvin, reaching into his pocket, and picking up a pack of cigarettes he had brought from home.

Alvin lit his cigarette, and sucked it hard, as his eyes glanced at Dawn who was still silent without a word.

"I take care of, and look after Dusk with great affection. I always guaranteed her happiness. So I wouldn't be willing, if the marriage bond only made him hurt." continued Alvin as he stared at Dawn.

"Ap...what did you say Vin? I love Dusk, I won't hurt him. He must be happy with me." Dawn said quickly, but a little nervous.

"I'm not saying this without reason. I've known you for a long time, I know very well how you are with Adara, and how you feel about her. Adara is much more perfect, than Dusk. So how could I possibly believe that if you really loved my sister." said Alvin.

"Love is not only of likeness, or treasure, but also of Vin's heart. Twilight's personality is much better, than Adara's, it's what makes me love her." replied Fajar firmly.

"Adara is beautiful, but she plays dirty tricks for her career, and stupidly, I am also caught up in her savagery" Fajar said in her heart.

"Thank God then. I've entrusted Dusk to you, please don't even tarnish my trust!" alvin said as he patted Dawn on the shoulder, and looked at her sharply.

At the same time, Dusk came from the kitchen room. He looked at the two men with a little anxiety.

"Sister Alvin! May she not be suspicious of my marriage." Inner Twilight in her heart.

"Let's have breakfast!" bring Dusk while approaching the two of them.

"Dear on, Vin, let's have breakfast!" word Dawn.

"Come on!" alvin replied as he moved from his seat.

Then the three of them stepped together towards the dining table.

Moments of time just keep rolling. Quickly leave the day, week, and also month. It did not feel like the wedding of Dawn, and Dusk had been running for six months. The more here, the more trials that test their households.

Bu Rani who always cornered Dusk, and said it barren. On the other hand, Dawn has not changed. He has never touched Dusk, let alone anything else, touched his lips only Dawn never. Dusk is in invisible sorrow. He did not understand at all the mind of Dawn, who never touched him just because he did not want a child.

The attitude of Dawn is still the same as before, loving, and loving Dusk with full tenderness. But for that intimate thing, Dawn is often emotional, every time Dusk brings it up. Does Dawn have any abnormalities? Or does he have another woman out there? Two questions that always disturb the heart, and the mind of Dusk.

Currently Dusk was sitting alone at the dining table. Stare at the rest of the breakfast, and also the dirty dishes that are still cluttered on the table. Dawn just left for work, maybe now he is not far from his apartment.

Dusk held his head which felt very dizzy. All this is hard, and hard for him. He kept the burden of his life alone, he had nowhere to share his grief. Nina, a friend who used to be very close to him, is now close to Alvin. Dusk did not dare to talk much about his marriage to Nina, he was afraid that Alvin would find out.

"What really happened to Kak Fajar. I was confused to face his erratic attitude, he always loved me, but never wanted to touch me." said Dusk in his solitude.

Lazily Dusk moved from his seat, and began to clean his dining table. The dishes he just piled in the kitchen, still lazy to wash it now. After he finished putting down his plate, Dusk returned to his room.

Dusk opened the door of his room slowly, then he waltzed in, and sat down on the sofa. Dusk grabbed his phone lying on the table. Dusk played it for a while, and accidentally his eyes stared at the one name that made him smile.

Sella, she was a close friend when they were in college. Sella is a smart girl who was born in the middle of a rich family, currently she is in Jakarta, taking care of her family's business there.

"Adara will live in Jakarta, maybe I can find out about it through Sella" said Dusk with a deep smile.

Adara's family did come from Surabaya, but about a year ago, when the business was growing, they and their family moved to Jakarta. And to this day, it looks like they still live there.

Without thinking long, Dusk began to call Sella's number. He must really find out about Adara, however perfect he is, Dusk will not let him ruin his household.

"Hallo Sella!" greet Dusk when the phone connection starts to connect.

"Hallo Nja, how are you?" sella replied from across the street.

"I'm a good Cell, how are you?" Twilight asked.

"If the news is good Nja, but the matter of romance is still as gloomy as it used to be." replied Sella with a crisp laugh.

"From the beginning you were always like that Cell, even though there were so many men in line who wanted to invite you." sibir Dusk.

"There is nothing suitable for Nja, mostly just mode, I will look for the sincere" Sella replied.

"Whatever, mmmm Cell."

"Can I ask for help?"

"Solicit what please? Just tell Nja, as long as I can I'll help you." Sella said seriously.

"I want to find out about someone, he lives in Jakarta, but I don't know where the full address is yet" said Dusk.

"Who?" ask Sella.

"His name is Adara Victoria, daughter of Jhon Victory, a big businessman who used to live in Surabaya, but now has moved to Jakarta" replied Dusk.

"Jhon Victory, isn't that the owner of the Golden Star Group?" ask Sella.

"Yes, you know Sel, you know him?" Twilight asked.

"I don't know, but I do. The company is quite influential here Nja. The office is also not too far from my office" Sella explained.

"really? So you also know with Adara, she's Sel's first daughter."

"Mmm Adara, actually." said Sella.

"What is Cell?" ask Dusk quickly. Maybe Sella knows something.

"Actually I know his son is not Adara Nja, but Alex, Alex Victory said he was his only son" Sella replied.

"Single son, why can it be like that, Adara is his son, I know that" said Dusk.

"When I was in Surabaya I didn't know about them, I started to know when they lived here. And from the news that I heard, her son is just Alex" said Sella.

"That can't be Sel, Adara's her son. And Alex, she must be her sister. There's no way Alex is an only child!" the night started to panic.

"Look at Nja, later I will tell people to find out about their time in Surabaya. Just calm down, don't panic, and wait a minute. I'll definitely help you." said Sella to calm Dusk down.

"Thank you Cell, I don't know who else to ask" Dusk said quietly.

"Don't worry, we're friends. But Nja, if I may know who Adara is? You got a problem with him?" ask Sella carefully.

"He's my ex-husband." replied Dusk quietly.

"What's? Mmm but they've got nothing to do with it anymore, right?" ask Sella.

"Of course, I'm also confused Cell, at this time I'm still figuring it out." replied Dusk.

"Oh so, the important thing is to remain patient, and calm yes. Don't hesitate to ask me for help, I will help you."

"Thank you for the cell."

"Yes. How's your relationship with Ken anyway?" ask Sella.

"Our relationship is over, he's betrayed me, I don't want to forgive him. Now he is in Japan." replied Dusk.

"Destiny is difficult to guess, Nja, I did not expect if you will split up, considering your relationship was very romantic, I thought it would end up in the guarantee" said Sella.

"Not Cell soul mate. Mmm yes I closed yes, I want to clean the house" said Dusk.

"Yes, fine over there huh Nja."

"Yes." Yeah."

Then Dusk put back his phone, he let out a long sigh, and exhaled it violently. Ken, he remembered the man again. He was furious when he found out Ken betrayed him. But now, it persisted even though the attitude of Dawn was very suspicious. Is that how he feels about Dawn? Love, sometimes it does not make sense, and cannot be measured by logic.

When Dusk is still late in his daydream. Suddenly her phone rang, it was Farah who called her.

"Hallo Fa!" greet the Twilight with a little laziness.

"Hallo Kak Dusk, there is no show tonight?" ask Farah.

"It doesn't seem like, why?" Twilight asked.

"Mama told you to come here. We'll have dinner together. Come on, brother?" answer Farah.

"Yes." replied Dusk briefly, while turning off his phone connection.

Coming to the house of in-laws, always adds to his heartache. Ms. Rani always cornered him, and compared him to Adara. Especially about grandchildren, Bu Rani always considered him barren. As for Dusk, he could not answer anything. There was no way he was telling the truth, it could destroy his pride.

"Ahh everything sucks!" shouted Dusk while hitting the table in front of him quite loudly.

Seriate......
