Wound Healing Husband

Epis. 52 I'm back

“I'm back, Mia”, he said breaking the silence. “I miss my family, my friends and my life here”. Mia was still unmoved, her hands clenched firmly under the table.

“I no longer want to isolate myself just to avoid you. I'm sick of hiding from you”.

“Why should you hide from me, did you make a mistake with me”. Mia was still reluctant to look at him, her gaze was only fixed on the glass wall that was the border of the cafe with the road in front of her.

“You're right, I didn't make a mistake at all. All I did was an attempt to get what I wanted, and I got it”. the woman seemed to be smiling widely.

“I've given you seven years to forget. Now, my husband and I too our beautiful daughter will live here, in Jakarta”. It was as if someone had pierced his heart when he heard the woman say the words my husband and also, son…

“He's forgotten you, he's long forgotten you, Mia.  So don't ever try to find it or I'll make you regret”. Mia glanced at the woman and their gaze met. Search for what? Mia had even started to forget about it. No, he's trying to get over it by believing his feelings for Donny.

“Why are you afraid I'm looking for him?”. Mia tries as quietly as possible, if Fiona is here now maybe Fiona will grab and scratch this woman.

“Are you afraid he's coming back to me”. The woman's face turned cold, her gaze as if it was going to stab Mia right in her heart. But a moment later the woman again showed her calm face.

“That will never happen, she is already tied to life and death with me”, he said casually.

“I warn you once again, Mia. Don't look for him, if you accidentally meet him stay away from him don't say hello”. This time in earnest.

“If you do I will make you lose once more. You know, I can do anything”. The woman left Mia, she left without touching the drink she had ordered.The woman got into her car, she gripped tightly on the steering wheel of her car. The calm and flat face he showed in front of Mia now turned tense and pale.

She was afraid that her husband could no longer hold back and looked for the girl, which is why he came first to look for Mia and threaten her even though he knew her threat was completely meaningless.

But he has chosen to return to his country, where he was born and raised. Although the possibility that her husband will return to meet the girl he always loved could have happened, she is ready. He had a key card to hold the man by his side, their son.

While Mia was still in her place, her face pias and her entire body felt trembling. Mia is not afraid of the threat of Monika of course, but actually she is not ready to face the past that comes back to disturb the peace of her life.

Let alone step, stand alone he is not capable. His legs could not keep up with his body.

“You're okay, Madam”. Mia looked up, Leo came looking for her. Leo was surprised to see Mia's pale face.

“Please help me stand”. Leo swiftly grabbed Mia's arm and swept her into the car. Leo gave Mia a bottle of mineral water, the girl took it and consecrated half of it. He took a deep breath while closing his eyes.

“Leo, can I ask Al” for help, he said in a weak voice

“What's up, Mistress. Al will definitely help you”.

“I don't want to go back to the office, can Al take care of it”. Mia felt it was impossible to continue the work with such a chaotic heart like now”.

“Of course, Nyam”.

“Tas and my phone are also still on my desk”.

“Good, Nyonya”. Leo then contacted Alfandy to convey Mia's request.

“Are we going straight home?” Ask Leo. Mia still closed her eyes expelling all the thoughts that were bothering her.

Al receives a message from Leo and delivers it to Donny.

“Who did he meet until he made it like that?” Donny put down his pen, he waited for Alfandy's answer. The secretary must know who Mia had met.

“The woman, Sir. Monika”'s. Donny is surprised, he picks up his cell phone to contact Mia.

“The Madam's phone is still left in her office, sir. Madam asked me to take her bag and also her phone”.

“Do I still have an important schedule today Al?”, Al open his tablet. “Only meeting with IT section, tuan”.answer Al.

“What's there again?”

“Nothing, Mr. just some files you should check”.

“Pending it, Al. Follow me, I'll pick up, Mia”.

“Good, Tuan”.

Donny knew right now his wife would need him most. And he wants to be there, when the girl needs him. He would not let her feel his own sadness, he wanted to always accompany her.

Al drove his car at high speed, Donny ordered it. He was already impatient to hug his wife, he wanted to give her his shoulder so that the girl could lean on him.

Leo's car was parked there, where Donny picked him up that night. The place is indeed very good to eliminate sadness, the pounding waves that hit the reef that limits it gives its own peace to someone who does need peace.

Donny goes down first even when Al hasn't turned off his car engine. The girl was sitting there, where she was sitting that night.

“Suchintya you really like this place”. Donny's voice made the girl surprised, between believing and not. And her husband was really next to her now. He was just thinking about it, thinking if Donny had been here, maybe his mood would have felt a lot better.

The corner of his lips was attracted, Donny sat very closely with him. He could smell Donny's perfume from this close distance. And it calmed his mind and heart.

“You haven't answered it yet, why do you like this place so much?”. Donny slipped his wife's hair, which kept dancing in the wind behind her ears.

“This place makes me a little calm”. The answer. ‘And your presence now makes me calmer’.

Mia rested her head on her husband's shoulder, Donny immediately hugged her shoulder. Leo and Al who were behind them smiled. Al even captured the sweet moment with his phone camera.

“Mas still no work?” Donny shakes his head, “No, why”. Mia lifted her head off Donny's shoulders and was now standing in front of him.

“Company me see sunset yah”. The girl tugged at Donny's hand like a little boy who asked his mother to buy him candy.

“Baiklah”. Mia soared in excitement.

Mia was very enthusiastic when the sun was already at sea level, golden jinnga color was clearly visible in the reflection of the rumbling water. He had always admired the twilight, the beautiful scenery that made his heart become calm. It had been a long time since the last time he had seen such a beautiful sight. And now there was someone accompanying her to see that beauty made her mood so much better.

‘Hopefully this happiness is not like twilight, which can only be enjoyed its beauty for a moment.’.
