The White Age of Biruku
Chapter 36
Home from work Dwi immediately returned to his boarding house without stopping by elsewhere. As usual, he cleaned up and rested. And I haven't checked my phone yet.
After finishing the bath, Dwi immediately lay down in bed but previously he had taken his phone in a small bag that he used to use for work.
As soon as he unlocked his phone, Dwi was silent for a while because there were several missed calls from Lili and one message asking what was happening and why Dwi did not answer his call.
Honestly, Dwi is not ready to be honest with Lili about what she has experienced lately. But inevitably Dwi must also be ready to face it.
Finally, after convincing and venturing, Dwi pressed the video call button on Lili's contact. And after ringing a few times finally saw the face of Lili who was fresh and seen that Lili had just finished bathing.
"Hey.. Busy again, huh? I called you earlier." said Lili as soon as the call was connected. And Lili tried to be ordinary, when in fact she wanted to ask Dwi a lot of things but all those questions seemed unable to come out of her mouth.
"Hm... Yes today I just got home from the shower today." replied Dwi, telling the truth.
Honestly, actually, Lili wanted to ask really? Sure overtime? Overtime where?. But then again it was all just being harbored by Lili.
"It's me taking a shower, it's still wet" said Lili, showing her half-wet hair.
"Yes." Yeah." Dwi only answered briefly accompanied by a knotty smile.
A moment later the two fell silent to each other, no one opened their voices at all. Finally, Lili's deheman's voice made Dwi aware, because before he was a little dreamy thinking about how to talk to Lili about this all.
"Hm.. Look, Lili, I want to talk to you about something."
Dwi sighed for a moment before she continued what she was about to say. While Lili looks like waiting for what will be said by Dwi.
"I'm sorry that I rarely call you lately. Because you know for yourself we are both working and equally busy. So I'm sorry if we..." Dwi couldn't seem to say it.
If I can be honest, Dwi actually still loves Lili, but because of her reunion with Sari, especially the Sari family who seemed to tell them to get married, Dwi could not refuse it. It could be said that Dwi had not been able to move on when she approached Lili while they were in school. And Lili is only a runaway for Dwi as she feels disappointed after Sari and her family move out.
"Sorry.." - Lirih Dwi.
"I can understand kog. From the beginning we dated it has already discussed this, if our beliefs are different. But as long as after the break up later we are still friends huh? At least we can still remember if ever loved each other." said Lili.
"Yes donk, until whenever we remain friends even though I will marry you" replied Dwi, who actually came out of his heart.
"You want to get married?" lili asked, because she heard Dwi's words.
"Hm... I mean later if I uda meet his soul mate." replied Dwi with a little stammering.
"Yes I know kog." said Lili.
"That's what really happened to you. You there have found your soul mate but you don't want to be honest with me." Lili's inner.
"Yes uda I ate first yes, Ibu uda called from earlier hehe." continued Lili because her chest suddenly felt very tight.
"Yes, greetings to Mother and Father yes." replied Dwi.
Their call finally ended. Dwi could breathe a sigh of relief, she thought that it could escape her problems. And grateful that Lili has a legowo heart.
But in contrast to Lili, as soon as she hung up the phone she immediately cried trying to pull out the tightness in the chest that she had just held. Honestly, Lili is very grateful to be close to Dwi all this time. But he could not oppose fate, especially Lili from the beginning decided to establish a relationship with Dwi already knew that someday they would end because of their different beliefs.
