Between Two Love

Between Two Love
Episode 14's.


That day I arrived at my job late. Rudi who was in a hurry immediately rushed towards the meeting room. I went alone to my work room. Coincidentally that day was a lot of free time. I played my phone and saw no news at all from Riko. I started to feel the anxiety.


Tumben once Riko didn't call me, did something happen to her.


I began to confuse myself trying to contact him, there was no answer though. I'm starting to fret that I intend to see him. I went and met him at a library place that happened to belong to him. I looked for him there I asked the guard there and no one understood where he was.


There's a great sense of worry haunting me. Then there's a nameless incoming phone I immediately picked it up.


" hello"


there was a female voice there


" who is it ?" much


" i Sukma can we meet?"


" yes" I answered immediately and I remembered where we should meet. After that, I immediately went to the place where he invited me to meet.


I still remember the graceful face of Sukma, I went up to him and immediately sat down beside him.


" i'm Reyna you're jasmine Sukma aren't you?" ask me while holding my hand


She smiled very sweetly


" yes Rey I already know a lot about you" he replied


" oh, how do you know about me?" much


" Riko told me"


I fell silent


" what are we meeting here?" much


" you are the woman Riko loved but I am his wife. As a wife, I am very sad. At first I thought he could forget you. But it turns out that the more here he comes looking for information about your whereabouts. No woman wants her marriage ruined. Until finally she decided to divorce me . How broken my heart is right now." she told me in tears


I, who felt guilty at that time, also felt his sadness. I don't want to ruin people's marriages. But do they know that all these years I've been ruined with my life. I was married to someone I loved.


" what should I do then?" much


" i just want to save my marriage" she replied


" weren't you divorced?" much


" today is my divorce trial, please save my marriage I don't want to be a widow" she replied in tears


deg


I was surprised I couldn't do anything. I was confused if I should let him go the umpteenth time. I love him very much but Sukma needs him more.


" i'll try to talk to him later" I replied in disappointment


" thank you Rey, I'm sure you're a good person" she hugged me


********


I tried to contact Riko again and again.


" is it Rey?"


" i want to see Rik today" I said


" where's Rey?"


" in a normal place" I replied


I went straight to the place where I used to meet him. I saw Riko waiting for me there.


" Rey what the hell is going on?"


" i want you to go back to Sukma Rik" I said with tears in my eyes


" meaning?"


" yes keep your marriage, marriage is sacred there is nothing wrong with Sukma . She loves you so much Rik" I said in tears


" what the hell are you, Rey? you don't love me anymore?" Riko started yelling at me


" i don't want to sin for ruining the marriage of an innocent person" I replied


" you didn't break it but I broke it myself because I didn't love it" she explained


" please Rik, your wife loves you so much"


" no Rey, my decision is complete" she replied, holding my hand


" i'll divorce her and I'll start my life with you"


" but Rik I don't want him to get hurt by me" I replied


" love needs sacrifice Rey we have to keep fighting I don't want to make the same mistake Rey "


*******


That afternoon I went home with him and he drove me home. Arriving at the house I saw Rudi waiting for me on the terrace. I went straight to the terrace where he was sitting.


" Rud's been here a long time?"


" how did you not get in?" I asked him to come in.


" Rey I want to say goodbye to you next week I'm off-city for a month" Rudi said


" what? out of town? a month?"


Rudi choked on stopping his drinking


" why the hell Rey was shocked so ordinary" he said


" oh, that's okay, but....


" but what?"


" no one is you" I replied


" there will be Riko who takes care of you Rey after all just one month anyway" he replied


disappointed and sad to hear the news. It will miss the taste


******


That morning was the first day I went to work without Rudi. He's on duty out of town. I don't think I'm ordinary without him, he's always with me going and everywhere. I left without spirit today. When I got there, I did my usual activities. It's just that today feels very quiet and empty.


" Where will you go to Rey?" Ana comes to me


" come home maybe" I replied


" i'm going to go to the library with Riski coming?" ask Ana


" ooh, it's a mosquito repellent"


" yeeeee emang Riko can't make you come out?"


" i'm a little too lazy An"


" cieeee males what males"


I just smiled at Ana's jokes.


***********


After I came back from the office I went to bed. My body feels tired. A phone call from Riko


" hello Rey"


" yes rik "


" out yuk I'll pick you up?"


" i'm running out of Rik's house, where the hell am I going?"


" do you make sure you go for a walk, will you mind if I pick you up?" then he hung up


Shortly after, he was at the door.


" let's go in Rik" said I invite Riko


" does Aunt Reyna have an aunt?"


" it's up there for a second, huh?"


I went out and saw Riko waiting for me.


" Rey, are you sick?" riko asked while holding my forehead


I avoided "not just being exhausted" I replied


" your fever is Rey again" said Riko


" we go to the doctor" he asked


" not Rik ntar is also healed" I replied


That day we were at home watching tv.


" how did you make the same decision, Rick?"


" meaning?"


" about your marriage" I said


" i've taken care of Rey while the letter comes out" he replied


" do you have no pity on Sukma ?"


" how else don't I love him Rey"


" but Rik what people say later I don't want to be called an actor" I replied


" no one will say you're like that Rey, even if that person is going to confront me"


I cried I felt the awkwardness of my heart. Suddenly I began to doubt my feelings. I really want to be with him. But now my feelings are worried because my togetherness should break someone's heart. I don't want to ruin people's households but I also want to be happy.


I should be happy over the suffering of others. A completely innocent man. It's just that I misplaced my feelings.
