YOUR EYES GAVE ME A SOUL MATE

48. Forget Me

Ega held onto Melody's shoulders, to keep the girl away from her arms. Long hung out with Najwa, making himself know a bit of boundaries with a woman who is not his muhrim. But Ega still admitted, alone with the non-muhrim in the house that does not have other residents, also not justified.

"Melody's. Let go of me, forget me. I'm really sorry, because I've loved someone else and removed you from my heart" Ega said.

"Why do you have Ega. That's where I'm so loyal to you. Is it my fault with you until you get me? is there anything less than me? you just say, I can fix my flaws and mistakes. But please stay with me" Melody said with a tear-filled face.

"No Melody. I will not be able to feed Najwa with anyone anymore. I am also not a prophet who can be fair, if indeed one day we mate. That's why I want our relationship to end here. I don't want to disappoint Najwa anymore, especially I love her so much." Answer Ega.

"Love? how could you say those words of love in front of the girl you hurt with your love. Then what does our relationship during these 3 years mean to you Ega? it's so easy for you to destroy it, just being tempted by another woman?"

"Melody's. She's my wife. I should have loved him and appreciated him. And us? all this time we have always been in a relationship that is not lawful. So Melody, please forget me."

"But you've enjoyed my body for years. Don't you want to be responsible? you have destroyed me" said Melody.

"Sorry Melody. You should not forget either. That the one who did that for the first time to you wasn't me. I've also accepted you as you are during our relationship. I admit I'm guilty of you, the impression I dumped you after getting tired of you. But by God, I never thought so long. But maybe we are not fools. I go home first, Najwa's waiting for me at home,"

Ega moved from his seat. But suddenly Melody ran towards the kitchen and picked up a knife.

"If you dare to step out the door, you will see my corpse before your eyes" Melody said as she placed the knife on her wrist.

"Melody's. What the hell are you doing? are you crazy?"

"I would be crazy if you left me Ga. You have ruined our dreams. I came home because I wanted you to marry me, but you dumped me instead. Sick know it?"

"Melody's. Take off that knife! danger," said Ega in panic.

"Biarin. If I die you can have fun with your wife, right?"

"Can't you not have a drama like this? you want to die or live, I will stay with Najwa. With you like gini, I'm even more convinced that Najwa is the best choice." Answer Ega.

Ega slowly approached Melody, wanting to take the knife out of the girl's hand.

"I know I was wrong with you. But I can what? we can't be together anymore Melody" said Ega.

"could. Make me your second wife." Answer Melody.

"Would never be. I don't want to betray Najwa. I can't explain to you why I can't. Anyway whatever you do, it won't change my decision" said Ega.

"Oh...It looks like you think I'm just bluffing huh?"

Melody then completely sliced through her wrist, though it wasn't too deep. Fresh blood trickled down, and it made Ega panic.

"Melody's. Are you really out of your mind?"

Ega charged towards Melody who was about to fall on the floor.

"I'll take you to the hospital" Ega said in a panic.

"don't want. Let me die! I don't want to be taken to a hospital. I don't want to be ashamed."

"Substantiated what? Don't be stubborn" said Ega.

Ega then carried Melody, to take the girl to the hospital.

"Fortunately the wound is not too deep, and does not need to be sewn," said the doctor.

"of course. My advice is to keep an eye on him, don't make himself a lot of thoughts and become depressed, until he commits suicide again." Answer doctor.

"Well doc," said Ega.

Ega and Melody returned to the apartment. There was no conversation between the two on the way home.

"Ega. Can we really not be together anymore?" melody asked with tears back.

"Sorry Melody. I hope you understand and sincerely accept all my decisions." Answer Ega.

"Well if that's what you want, what can I do? even when you see me wretched, you still insist on leaving me. Now I must try to forget you."

Ega was relieved when she heard Melody's words. The man thought it wasn't too hard to convince Melody.

"As a sign of our farewell, will you obey my request?" ask Melody.

"Request?"

"Yes. But promise me you'll grant all my requests." Answer Melody.

"If you don't do anything indecent, I promise to grant it" Ega said.

"Stay in tonight. You take it easy, I'll be in the room, and you sleep in the guest room. I'm just scared tonight" Melody said.

"Sorry Melody, I can't. Najwa must have been waiting for me a long time, I beg you to understand." Answer Ega.

"Don't you appreciate our 3-year relationship? you won't even give me a face? Ega, don't you feel so cruel?".

"Sorry Melody. But that's inappropriate."

Ega's answer certainly required Melody to laugh out loud. In just a span of less than 5 months, Ega was already completely far away from him. Even the man limits their relationship to merit and inappropriate things. It was very different when he came home 6 months ago. Ega and himself can even be naked from morning to morning to fulfill their desires.

"You'd say I'm very naive. But it doesn't matter, as long as I'm walking a little bit in my corridor."

"Please. I'm just asking to be with you, not to take you to bed together. I'm really scared tonight. Please appreciate my feelings for the last time,"

"Sorry Melody I really can't." Answer Ega.

"I'm going home first, right? my wife is waiting at home. Anyway I promise I'll just be out for a little while, and it's already 9 p.m. He must be very worried" said Ega.

Ega then moved from his seat.

"Ega. Drink the coffee first" Melody said.

"I don't like cold coffee" said Ega.

"I'll make it again,"

"No need. Najwa's gonna make it for me later,"

Melody clenched her arms without Ega knowing. Just as he was about to reach the exit, Melody called his name back, but it was right behind his back.
