Accompli Faith
Chapter 24's

"What do you mean I can go?" The sky was still confused as to what his wife meant.

Selena smiled wryly. "You must have understood what I meant. That's how it is."

Space really does not believe that Selena really wants to end their relationship. He does not accept. "No. I'll stay with you. Whether it's me or you, no one's leaving."

Selena looked around and ended up in space. "Why? Why can't you or me go? I deserve to go, and so do you. There's no more reason for me and you to stay here if no one wants each other." It hurts to say this to Selena.

"Nobody would be angry if you and I separated. Since Dad's gone so far, you don't have to worry." Selena said again and was accompanied by a slanted smile.

"No !" Reject Space hard. "Before I had a deal I promised Dad to take care of you forever."

"But you didn't really promise, you just had to say it and live all this with me. And all this time you obviously didn't want me here, did you?"

Space speechless. He could feel how devastated Selena was feeling right now. Although Selena's tears hadn't been spilled, but the words that came out of her mouth implied a deep disappointment and her injuries were extremely severe.

Space tries to be calm in the present situation. "My answer remains the same. You're not gonna let me go. Your place is here. With me. Even if you want to go, I'll find you."

And the space went from that place. Selena looks very frustrated. He put the remaining plate of fried rice aside and put his face on the dining table. Tears that had been trying to stay in front of Space finally spilled.

They still did not say hello at night. It just so happens that today Angkasa is off work and he is not going anywhere. Both of them had only been staying in their rooms since the afternoon quarrel. The two were still equally awkward when they met in the living room when Angkasa picked up his phone that was left there.

Now Angkasa was in front of Selena standing while pointing her little finger. Selena scrunched her forehead. "What's wrong?"

"I want us to be friends again."

Deg. Selena's heart is racing faster than usual. Come on, Angkasa just invites to return to friendship, why his heart must overreact, the woman's mind.

Space was still waiting for his wife to link her tiny little pinky to her little pinky who had been waiting since. "Hm... Alright."

Selena's memories drift to memories a few years ago when Space invites her to make friends. It's funny to remember how his face looked at the time. Can't be fooled how the happiness in the man's face is right now. Both finally chuckled.

"For all this, I'm sorry." Said Space, whether for how many times he said it, but he had to say because he knew how big of a mistake he had committed against Selena.

That night was the first time they smiled again, laughed again, after a long time. Since their wedding day. Smile, happiness, which has been drawn only a mere mask in front of family and others. However, this time everything was different, they re-established a relationship that could be said to have been destroyed. Then, that relationship is friendship.
