The Story of a Broken Man

26. The Night And You

Ilyas after eating to his room. It feels so bad for his body all day working. Joseph sat on the porch of his house. The stars tonight are few, mostly hiding behind cloud cover. His eyes were fixed on the charred house . The occupant had gone to his brother's house this afternoon. Joseph was also sad when they left, although only temporarily but it felt there was less.

Usually from the front of his house there was a boisterous sound full of family warmth, but now it was no longer heard. Not to mention the loud laughing voice of his friend while playing, now no more . Although sometimes he feels jealous because he can no longer be like them, but it feels like if there is no them lonely as well.

"Oh yes I called Fitri," While thinking about the neighbor who just had a fire, suddenly remembered his intention earlier to call Fitri. Immediately he went into the room to pick up the cell phone lying on the bed .

Joseph immediately searched for his lover's number. Not long after he finally found it too, he then immediately called him. After three calls, finally appointed by Fitri. Fortunately, he did not give up.

"What did you call?" After saying the greeting Joseph immediately said that.

"Not deliberately squashed earlier," in his ear Yusuf heard a soft woman's voice .

"What time?"

"Yes on?" The woman on the phone said in an annoyed voice.

"Reg . On Sunday we will see you. He said there would be a good film that just aired, you know," Yusuf tried to melt the atmosphere.

"Not interested . Why don't you watch your new boyfriend?"

"New boyfriend? My girlfriend is just you . There's nothing else?" Joseph did not understand the direction of the interlocutor's conversation.

"Your boyfriend is just me? Where was yesterday? The time I got out of the hospital was nothing for you. What's so busy for a minute that there's no time for me?"

Joseph silently heard the words. Actually, he had prepared mentally for this, but it turned out that his mentality was not strong enough to listen to this.

"It's quiet, right? Means I'm really, right? If you're busy with other people let me back off," Fitri feels like he's in the wind right now.

Joseph was silent. No words would come out of his lips. This time it was his fault, whatever Fitri said was not wrong. Maybe if he was in his position he would think the same.

"I have no other boyfriend but you. Whether you want to believe it or not, I'm obviously speaking the truth. If my problem is not telling, I want to have room to myself first. A lot of things happened. And not everything you should know, unless you have become my wife," Joseph finally found the words that he felt fit.

After being turned off, Joseph immediately put his phone on the mattress along with his body slammed into the bed. Though the reason thrown in his ear feels logical. But maybe girls everywhere are the same .

Hugging the pillow he thought how to make his girlfriend not to sulk at him again. He knows he's wrong. But at least there is a logical reason already spoken. It's dealing with women. Whatever he did must be wrong. It feels like eating simalakama fruit, eaten wrong not eaten wrong also wrong .

At that time he remembered when Fitri protested to him for not being able to watch his favorite music group. He was idly looking for the band's gig schedule and coincidentally he got the info that the group he liked his girlfriend would soon play in this city again.

He then got the idea to take him away and fulfill the promise he had said first. A true man is one who always keeps his promises.

If only Fitri had accepted his invitation to get married, surely the story would have changed. Unfortunately at that time he said he was not ready to make a household, but Joseph was very eager to get married. Because it was steady, he finally decided not to find someone else to invite he would wait until Fitri was ready.

Joseph who could not close his eyes at that time decided to just go to see the view of the crowded city. All of you restore his messed up thoughts. He does not want his job tomorrow so it is not because of this problem.

Cold air enveloped his body that was driving his vehicle. The night in the city is so bright. This time he found nothing interesting. I don't know why, when it comes to women he feels very weak. Especially when you see your loved one getting angry. It will definitely keep thinking.

He eventually turned to his friend's house, which once told him about his girlfriend who lost her womb the other day. His man happened to be on the porch of his house. He seemed to be relaxing with a cup of black coffee.

"How's boy doing? It's not bad anymore, is it?" as soon as the vehicle was turned off, Joseph asked.

"Now it's my turn to be upset. My boyfriend was angry, "after sitting next to him Yusuf said so.

"Can't you?"

"It's okay."

"Patiently, bro. Girls are usually very difficult if you are craving. Want some coffee too? It just so happened that my coffee was running out, "His friend made an offer.

A few moments later two glasses of hot coffee were in front of Joseph.

"He can catch why? Tumben the time your girl was sulking," her new friend sat down immediately said.

"When I came home from the hospital, I never contacted him because at that time his brother said tell him to stay away from his parents' attitude was like cold like that of me. So yes his name is person, definitely his mind is macem-macem. So yes, I never contacted him. And he called me, I did not answer because I was sleeping very much," long time Joseph said.

"From curiosity, I called him back earlier. He said I had a new girlfriend. Though it is not. I want to be loyal to one person. I keep telling you I don't have a boyfriend other than her. What else did I say? In fact, it was immediately obeyed with him. It was not clear when he was, "What was holding him back was issued in front of his friend.

"What did you tell me to stay away from?"

"Yes probably because of my boyfriend's illness . I am not told the name of the disease. Anyway he said bad. He went to the hospital only once."

"But I'm not willing if for example. We're going out with his intention to be a wife not for toys. Males if told to go again. Is it easy to open your heart to others? It was not as simple as turning his hands around," Finished saying that Joseph drank black coffee that looked tempting.

"Some of it is better now. Why do I get other people, too. Older age, already want someone who wants to also want to have a baby, finished drinking, Yusuf said again.

"If you're serious lammar aja bro."

"Year of the year . She said she was not ready to be a wife, so it was up to her. Try it first he wants, now I'm the baby."

"Patiently, bro. If it's time you'll have it too."

"Other people have. There are also children who go to school. I think I keep on? Will you be patient until when?"

"Until god allows."

"When did God allow me to marry you?"

"Ask yourself."

"Eitherway. Dizziness me. You're changing girls now?"

"Not . I am still the same as him even though he has no womb. Whatever happens, I'm ready" he replied with confidence. It seems that he can now accept the situation.

"If's your boyfriend?"

"He initially refused, but yes after foaming my mouth he finally wanted to be with me."

"It's good that it's like that. I support you, '" having said so, Joseph immediately finished off the remaining coffee in the glass.
