THE WOMAN (END)

•80

Even in a matter of seconds, things can change drastically and unexpectedly.

In one second there can be thousands of terrible events that do not cross our minds.including in my mind.this is not a great fight, this is also not a very fatal problem. it's just that maybe because we started too fast, it made us feel unprepared for each other.

I'm standing at the doorway of the apartment. It's still morning, and even to get back home from here, pretty far away.

With a chaotic thought I stepped gamang down the stairs and walked out of that place.

"Loh, you're not Sandy's boyfriend, are you? who was here at the time?" hana's voice surprised me, so I could not wipe the tears that had already fallen soaked the cheeks.

I looked at him. Hana looks shocked when she sees me falling apart and crying.

"OMJ! what's happen?" approached me.

I shook my head slowly, wanting to cry but I also knew myself if she was someone else. Honestly, right now I am really upset and it feels like I want to collapse instantly.

"You quarreled? where's Sandy sir?" ask again.

"I want to go home!" I poked while wiping my tears.

"No! can't you go home crying like this? we better sit there!" Hana pointed to the security post.

Because I don't know what to do. I also agreed and followed his advice to take a short break there.

"Sit down!" his orders were gentle as he poured me a glass of water.

A security man parked the car and saw the two of us.

"What's wrong?" the question was to throw a glance at me and then turn to Hana.

"It's a woman's business! go there!" drive out Hana who seems to want to keep me from gossip.

I gulped down the fresh water slowly, even to swallow it I had difficulty. It felt like there was a strange object blocking my throat.

"It's okay, if you don't want a story? but at least, you calm your mind here. After that, you can go!" Hana looks at me pity.

Luckily I still find good people in places like this. People who really care about the condition of others.

"What time does a bus usually pass?" I finally felt better after I felt better.

"There is rarely a public vehicle passing by. if you want you can go to the first stop, and it's quite far to the east. do I need to order a taxi." Hana reached into her phone.

"No need! I just took the bus, thanks for the drink!" I got up and walked quickly to the east. I waved at Hana who still looked worried about me.

I walked alone, my left and right sides were apartments and luxury shops.it still looked quite quiet as it might still be early morning. busy people will usually be in this place late in the afternoon.

I may not be the only stranger here, but somehow I felt alone.Even some people were seen in the store throwing astonished looks at me.

I looked back. there was really no bus passing. Even taxis were still seen rarely. more private vehicles that passed since then. in this chaotic condition, even in this case, sometimes it even seems to laugh at us.

"Taxi..? " the voice of the fat man from inside the taxi car called out to me while stopping the speed of his car.

I shook my head softly. Seeing her bearded face just made me shudder in horror.Even she did not look friendly. I have to avoid the weirdest people as much as possible in order to get back home safely.

Fortunately my legs are very strong, so walking far enough is not a problem for me. And finally I found the stop, there was no one to be seen waiting for the bus there, but it's okay, hopefully I can get the bus today.

I sat on the side of the bench made of iron.circulating the look around me that felt foreign.

I bowed, thinking back to the incident in the apartment earlier, and once again it was able to make me want to cry.

Shouldn't I be strong? why am I so crybaby? even this is not a big problem when compared to my usual quarrel with Rizal mas.

Why Eyebrows??? I questioned my weak attitude.

Can I go through my days without her? maybe I can even if I'm not sure.

What about Andi? what if he asks about her? what should I answer?

I let out a soft breath.

I shouldn't have dared to love him.

Even though our relationship will definitely be very difficult to establish.Mu Ayu even blatantly asked me to stay away from him.

What about Lis? are you not aware? is that how you are because of love? to put your logic aside? I do condemn my stupidity.

SKIITT...

a bus suddenly stopped in front of me. unloading an elderly passenger and a small child who I thought was his granddaughter.

I reached into my bag to get my wallet, and know what happened? my wallet isn't there? how come? I scrambled the contents of my small bag.

"Where is this?" my heart started to panic.

Why did I forget my wallet? I'm not usually this stupid! I snorted in annoyance.

"Non't you?" ask someone I think is a kernet.

"Sorry sir, am I not going up?" I looked at him resignedly.

"Relatedly? the second bus came in the afternoon!" shouted the driver.

I stared at the giddy.but how, I felt my pants pocket as well as my shirt pocket.no money there. couldn't pay the bus with my phone? or my watch? looks so stupid.

"No sir, I'm still waiting for a friend!" I reasoned to cover up the shame.

The driver immediately drove his car leaving the only stop at the place.

I retreated slowly, then crouched down and came back crying. annoyed and angry at my own carelessness.

God is really showing my stupidity.

Long enough I bowed, before finally a faint sound could be heard walking towards me. For a few seconds I was silent, ashamed that someone was passing by and seeing me like this.

I opened my eyes slowly, and to my surprise, I knew the owner of the shoe, who was standing right in front of me.

"Why is he still here? Can't go home?" tanyanya cynic.

I looked up slowly.

I stared at her face that looked red and also so worried that I stood with a body that felt weak.

"I forgot my wallet!" I looked at him regretfully.

Mas Sandy was seen sighing violently.he pulled my body into his arms.

"Stupid!" he hugged me tightly.

"It turns out you can't do anything without me!" he was half-mockery but also anxious.

I could feel it as his embrace clenched me tighter
