There's Only You
CHAPTER 70 - I Need Time
Just downstairs, Aurora immediately passed by her mother who looked at her with an indecipherable gaze.
"Ma, I have to see him. I can't let him get rained on because of me. Please let me out" Pinta Aurora pleaded, hoping her mother wouldn't forbid her from seeing her husband.
Divia stroked her daughter's shoulders gently and said. "Mama understands how you feel. After all, he's still your husband. So Mama can't ban you, if you want to see her. Better now, solve the problems between you. You must immediately make the best decision for your household. Don't let this problem drag on"
Aurora smiled with relief at her mother's advice. He also nodded with a sigh. "Yes Ma. I'll do as Mama said" After getting the green light from her mother, Aurora ran out to Alwi.
Lightning and thunder are still very simple and sound very scary, in the midst of heavy rain that flushes the earth at night.
Alwi who was still loyal stood under the cold rain that made his body shiver, suddenly knitted his eyebrows when an umbrella that became a barrier to rain water hit him.
He turned to see who owned the umbrella. A sumringah smile emanated on his wet face, but it did not reduce his good looks to see his wife in front of him, and was holding an umbrella to protect them from the water falling from the sky.
"Thank you dear. I know you will definitely meet me" Alwi smiled looking at his wife full of love and longing.
"You better get out of here, and don't bother me anymore. It's free. Whatever you do, you can't change anything. You have betrayed our marriage" Aurora said coldly, turning her face away. She tried to harden her heart to ignore Alwi, even though her little heart was currently eager to hug her husband.
"Yes you're right. I have betrayed you. I am guilty indeed. I can't keep the promise of loyalty I once said to you. But you should know, everything that happened between me and Delia that night....." Lirih Alwi with a sad face.
"I can't even hear the woman's name anymore. I can't accept the fact that right now, she's pregnant with your child. My heart aches every time I imagine what you've done together" Tukas Aurora, teary-eyed, tried to hold back her tears from spilling over imagining her husband's relationship with the woman until she became pregnant.
"And you won't give me a chance to explain everything?"
"alright. Please explain everything. I'll listen to him. Because I want our problems to be done tonight as well" Aurora looked at Alwi and said firmly.
Alwi lowered his face for a moment, and took a deep breath before starting to tell a story. "That night I remembered nothing. There's someone setting me up. Put some stimulant drugs in my drink. That guy also took me and Delia to the hotel, Delia's room. Until we do. I know, I've touched another woman until she's pregnant with my son. I could swear. My heart has never seen anyone but you. You are the only woman in my heart. Not Delia, nor any woman" Alwi held Aurora's left hand gently, as the woman's right hand was holding an umbrella.
"I don't know if I should trust you or not. Please give me some time to digest all this. I need time to think and reflect. Ask my heart which one I should trust, and what I should do after this. And before that, please don't meet me first. So that I can think clearly. I beg you"
Lirih Aurora with a bright look, then she changed her tone to full of pleading, by fusing her palms together.
Aurora dropped her umbrella. Then he turned around and walked back inside the house, leaving Alwi looking at him with a sad and disappointed look. The rain again hit his body which was no longer protected by an umbrella.
Alwi was still staring blankly. He no longer knows what to do. He explained everything. But it seems that the mistake was too big, so Aurora needed time to believe it.

Since that night, Alwi no longer met Aurora. He was trying to appreciate his wife's request to calm down, and did not want to meet him for any reason.
Alwi realized this was all his fault. If only he had dared to be honest from the beginning. Maybe the situation won't be this chaotic.
Now he can only live his days with his nestapa. Spending his time in the studio room without passion, so he could never finish his training properly. All she had in mind was when Aurora would open her heart and receive it back.
The studio room filled with musical instruments was quiet and quiet. The room used to feel crowded and lively by the music and the laughter of the two of them, while spending hours singing songs in the room.
Reno entered the room. He walked up to Alwi with slow steps and a look of pity at the slump of his best friend. Alwi did not budge as he felt a soft touch on his shoulders.
"Come Ren. Please don't bother me. I just want to be alone now" Pinta Alwi turned her face away. His head was throbbing thinking about his life problems.
Reno sat down next to Alwi. "Al, I understand you're in a lot of trouble right now. But that doesn't mean you have to stay aloof like this, right? You also have a responsibility on our label. Tonight you have to go back to the stage. Your schedule is pretty tight. So please refocus on your work" Reno tried to advise and persuade in a soft and gentle voice.
"Ren, can you not, my schedule tonight is cancelled? Or, just dipending. I can't focus on anything right now" Pinta Alwi expectantly.
"Can't Al. You should keep performing tonight. You haven't performed in a few days. Mr. Wilson has been very good at letting you off for a few days, because he understands you have a problem right now. But now, try to understand us. For a moment, forget about your personal problems. Especially now, the problem between you and Delia has sniffed the media. Fans and netizens continue to question this. Various issues that you have had an affair with Delia whose incident is your duet partner continues to stick out. So you have to appear in public and make a confirmation. Do not let this problem affect your agency and good name. Your career as a superstar could be at stake. And we can all be hit. Please, just stay professional. Okay?"
Reno spoke at length, awakening Alwi to his responsibilities. The manager's mischief made Alwi speechless. Reno's right, he can't keep going like this. He must rise up and complete all his responsibilities. It's time he settled and ended all this mess.
