The Story of a Broken Man
74. Dialogue With Ex



As usual, Joseph always enjoyed the twilight which he thought was very beautiful. I don't know since when he was so happy with the twilight looking dazzling yellow. He enjoyed it in front of the boarding house while accompanied by warm coffee that feels very steady.


The first day working in a new place it feels normal, he said, although there are some surprises that are quite unnerved. Maybe because the work done is still the same. It felt like trying new things, but the new thing in question also Joseph did not know. The point is he just wants to try something new even if what he wants also does not know .


When this atmosphere feels incomplete if not a snack. Coffee doang taste like there is less. It just so happened that Joseph did not smoke so yes he decided to buy a snack. Mumpung pas also afternoon-afternoon usually a lot of sales . He brought his coffee in and went for a walk.


He after riding a motorcycle for a long time finally decided to buy a pack of satay that looks quite crowded. From the road seems very tempting. After ordering he sat down at the table provided.


Shortly after sitting down, a woman he once knew came with his son. Seeing him so astonished Joseph, he thought this person like a ghost. Everywhere he appeared, Joseph tried to be ordinary. After all he who used to be left behind, he now does not want to be in contact with him anymore .


"Only alone?" ask the woman who was either intentionally or unintentionally sitting next to him.


"Yes" he answered briefly. In his heart he was very sorry to go there. Know there is a former will come, like it was good to find a snack just like the initial intention. Fortunately, the message had been wrapped, otherwise Joseph would not have imagined it.


"Do you have a partner now?" ask the woman.


"Now" answered Joseph. He doesn't care if he lies or not. It's not important to him either. Want to have or not what is his business?


"Why did you get here? Are you staying here now or seeing a brother?" Joseph asked out of curiosity.


"Move my duties. Actually it's a bit heavy now it has to be LDR, but yes I'm sure he will not play with other guys," Yusuf replied in a somewhat satirical sentence.


"Know my son, his name is Alfian," because he felt insinuated, he looked for another chat.


Joseph felt a little heavy to say hello. I don't know why he doesn't like the boy, but he's completely innocent. He was just a result of his parents' actions. Joseph knew, but still it felt like there was a bit of aversion in him.


"Well handsome times yes," Yusuf said with a smile actually forced too.


"I'm sorry about the old one," with a bit of regret the woman said.


"I'm sorry. Still, I still haven't accepted it. But yes it is destiny gini ya want how again," replied Yusuf.


"Oh yes, my order is ready" Joseph said. He immediately picked up a packet of satay that he ordered and then left.


While riding his motorcycle, Yusuf felt a little relieved. After meeting him a few times, this time he was able to chat together. After a long time finally be able to make peace with the past. It seems very steady. Yusuf can be grateful that he can still feel it after about two years of continuing to remember the times when he got the truth about his ex that he thought hurt him so much.
