Woman, Don't Go From Me
CH - 28
"What are you doing?"
That sentence was the first Andreas said when they were in the car after successfully crashing into the crowd of news seekers.
"What's? Are we not going to get married? Don't you not want to marry me?" Fiana asked in full detail to hear Andreas' words.
"It's not.. " Said Andreas who lowered his tone, "The situation is not possible." Andreas.
"Not allowing for his safety?" Fiana vented her anger with flowing tears, "Try to explain in terms of what Andreas is not!" Excited Fiana while pulling the collar Andreas.
"I'm sorry.." Andreas gently grasped the hand of Fiana who was holding the collar of her shirt, "Maybe you will be hurt to hear this." Andreas said softly and looked at Fiana with a faint look.
"What do you mean? Explain quickly! Don't make me think that no." Fiana cried in between her tears.
"Fi, actually I …. " Andreas was speechless, hesitant to continue his sentence. But anyway Fiana should know all this, sooner or later, "I'm married."Andreas said weakly.
"WHAT!!!! " Squealing Fiana, both her hands shut her mouth. As if he could not believe what he had just heard.
"No.. No way." Fiana shook her head, "lni you just want my prank. You just want to give me a surprise and arrive at my dream. Andre you don't have to, to the point. " Fiana forced a smile in the middle of her cries.
"Fi. "Andreas clasped Fiana's hand tightly and his eyes stared intently with guilt, "I'm serious." Andreas.
"No.. I don't believe it. Andreas, did you forget your promise five years ago? A promise you made with your own mouth? You really are bren*s*k Andre." Fiana hit Andreas in the chest with an outpouring of emotions that she had been trying to endure.
"FIs.. Shoot me first!" Andreas tried to hold it, "Fi.. My marriage won't be long. I will definitely marry you as I promise." Andreas tried to convince Fiana.
Fiana stopped her punch and looked at Andreas full of disappointment with puffy eyes.
"Now tell me who the fucking woman is?"
"You know him."Andreas Said.
"Say Andreas!" Fiana was impatient.
"Citra Maharani." Andreas said slowly.
"WHAT???" Fiana widened her eyes. This time it was not only disappointment that emanated from the look in his eyes. The overwhelming anger was also very obvious,"Andreas, how could you marry the woman who caused your brother to die? Andreas are you crazy? Already not sane? How can!" Fiana Screeches.
"He's pregnant with my son.. "
Plakkkp!
A loud slap from Fiana's hand for the first time landed on Andreas' cheek.
"I don't want to hear anything else from you." Shouted Fiana as she opened the car door and ran away leaving Andreas.
"Fie.. Fi!" Andreas yells at Fiana's name to try to persuade her, but she speeds up.

Imra sedag sitting dreamy on the terrace of a minimarket. In front of him was a bottle of sealed mineral water and a packet of pop noodles that were being brewed. He looked at the passing vehicle on the highway.
The image wiped away the tears that had without being asked to just fall from her eyelids. Really, actually at this time he did not want to remember the incident and wanted to calm his mind.
"Hey.. Imagery right? We'll see you again." A familiar woman in a black jacket suddenly stood in front of Citra, "What night are you here for?"
"Joice?" Say Citra recognized the woman before him, "No.. I'm just being shitting." The image of Buruh hurriedly wiped away her tears.
"Wait, are you crying?" Tanya Joice looks at the eyes of Citra .
The image shook with his smile. Of course he didn't want people to know his anxiety.
Joice pulls the chair in front of the Citra table then she sits down.
"Partner listen to me." Joice looked at Citra sternly, "You're pregnant, so you don't have too much stress. It is very influential on the baby that is in your womb. Try telling me the same story." Persuade Joice.
Imaged speech.
"I know maybe we're not that familiar yet but you can trust me." Joice said without hesitation.
The image fell silent for a moment then he ventured to stare at Joice.
"Joice, sorry I was presumptuous. But.. Can I stay at your place tonight?" Ask Citra doubtfully.
"Ohh.. Of course." Instantly Joice stood up,
"Come on that! What are you waiting for."

Joice opened a house with a modern design that looks minimalist from the outside but turned out to be so spacious inside.
"People as good as you?" Ask Citra in disbelief.
"Haha.. " Joice chuckles at Citra's question, "Maybe that's what you think." Joice put her bag on the sofa and gave her the image, "Take your own house. Oh, have you eaten? I saw your noodle pop still wrapped in a spoon. "
Imagery shook. How could he eat while his mind was currently in a mess.
"You have to eat a lot. Ehh.but not pop noodles either. This isn't just for you, for your son, either. You gotta think about that!", Joice pulled out her phone, "What do I want to order? I just happen to not eat."
"No need for Joice, I'm troubling you."Reject an unkind image.
"Absolutely not. Besides, I'm confused about what I'm gonna spend my money on." Joice said as she chuckled, "So what do you want me to order?"
"Joice up." Reply Citra finally even though she is still not good at Joice.
"Emmm what is it? You don't do ducks? I have a duck rice subscription that can deliver." Tawar Joice's.
"Can."
"I guarantee you'll be hooked. Black seasoning duck rice. Behh is very steady." Joice gave her thumbs up, "But don't often get cholesterol." Next later.
"Gfttt.." The image tried to hold back his laughter with Joice's silliness. It turned out that the tough lady was quite friendly and kind she thought.
"Laughter don't get arrested."Tempta Joice who occasionally looks at the screen of his phone, "I've ordered." Joice looked at Citra with pity, "You seem very tired. Do you want to rest in my room or in the empty room over there? Later when the food comes I wake you up. "
"No need for Joice. Thanks though. "
"Hmmm.. Consider me your brother. Don't worry. "
"You're so good Joice." Back Image said that.
"Ahh your feelings. By the way, where is your husband? He could have let his pregnant wife wander on." Joice began to be curious as well as upset with Citra's husband.
"He's busy, Joice, business." The image tries to hide the reality.
"What time is each day?" Ask Joice not to believe it.
Imaged speech. Seeing that Joice turns on the tv to break the stillness of the image.
Just a few seconds the television was lit The image was already unable to hold back its cries.
"Hey why are you crying?" Joice was really surprised to see the image that was crying so much.
"Joice me.. " Picture does not continue the sentence.
"Why?" Ask Joice curiously.
"That guy.." The image sighed, "He's my husband Joice." Say Image with sobbing.
"Suckers.. " Joice cursed violently.
"Joice no, he's not wrong. I mean they're not wrong. Me, I'm the third person in their relationship." Buru buru Citra explained.
"Ni what the hell does that mean. Try your story!" Joice grew curious about this woman before him.
"I married that man because I was pregnant with his child. We didn't even know each other before."
"Why can?" Joice furrowed her brows in astonishment.
"It was a misunderstanding and I don't know until now what it means to accuse me of a mistake I never made."
"I'm asking you the same picture. Are you happy with your life now? "
The image shook and sobbed.
"What good are you to hold on to?" Joice asked softly, afraid of hurting Citra, "I'm not willing to interfere with your problems. But I can't bear to see you like this. Remember whatever happened I was here. Ready to help you." Joice clasped Citra's hand and looked at her full of firmness.
Hearing Joice's warm words, Citra who currently does need support immediately hugged the cute woman before her.
"Thank you Joice. Thanks for being there for me." Say Citra lirih.
Tok tok tok tok
The knock on the door of Joice's house made her let go of Citra's embrace.
"Just now, it's like duck rice came."
