LOVE FOR FOUR SOLDIERS

LOVE FOR FOUR SOLDIERS
NATALIA'S MADNESS


Natalia lay down next to Rocco, but he sent a message to Achmad first.


"I like you, Achmad."


"I've been honest with you about how I feel about you."


Natalia laughed without a sound. He can't wait for what happens tomorrow. In his bed, Achmad was restless. Natalia's two messages made her heart stop for a moment. Achmad smiled looking at Natalia's photo on his phone. But he suddenly remembered Sapphira. He could not have broken off his engagement to Sapphira. Hurting Sapphira means hurting Wenny. Achmad could not imagine if there were men toying with Wenny's heart. Achmad has not responded. Achmad's straight-hearted mind was busy thinking of Natalia and Sapphira when Natalia deceived him completely. Achmad stayed up all night while Natalia fell asleep. At 04:00 a.m., Achmad sent a reply.


"Lia, I love you!"


"I'm ready to accept any consequences from your papa."


"But what should I do with Sapphira?"


"Hurting Sapphira means hurting Wenny."


Achmad patiently awaits reply.


Bambang, Arvida, and Natalia looked neat on Sunday morning. They were going to church with Peter, his wife, and his son. Others are allowed to do fun activities. Achmad and Farid decided to continue to run the escort even though Bambang banned. Along the way, Natalia who was sitting in the back seat was stuck to her phone. Achmad tried to glance through the rearview, but his gaze was rubbed with Bambang's eyes. Achmad recalled that Natalia had told Bambang about their relationship. Achmad nervous.


"Is it possible that you're angry because I'm dating your son? Later, I'm mutated. I'm having a hard time meeting Lia."


Meanwhile, Natalia realizes that Achmad has retaliated. Natalia read all Achmad's messages. Laughter exploded. Arvida and Bambang turned towards him showing curiosity.


"Forgive me, everybody! This news is sooo ridiculously!"


Natalia held back a laugh. Arvida and Bambang. Farid was still stroking his chest. She's shocked. Natalia's sudden loud laughter dispelled her delusion about Wenny. Only Achmad is unaffected. His level of self-control is amazing. Natalia did not rush to answer Achmad's message.


The service ends at 07:00 a.m. Bambang invites everyone to breakfast at a restaurant, while Natalia will go with Carlos who was also present at the church. Achmad showed his displeasure towards Natalia. Natalia almost gives a challenging look, but she remembers it's time to start the heart-breaking game of Achmad.


"Papa, Carlos will not deliver me home. May Achmad pick up me later?"


"Sure, he may. Do you need Achmad to go along with you?"


"May I?"


Natalia thanked her father. Bambang relayed the order to Achmad. The three cars left the church. Farid's car moved north, while Carlos and Achmad's car moved south.


Natalia picked up a few piles of paper from Carlos' room. Natalia let Achmad in. Natalia was busy giving directions to Achmad when Carlos held Natalia's back. Achmad clenched both hands to punch Carlos, but Natalia was unaware of Achmad's reaction. He diligently counted all the bundles of paper.


"Los, I've taken all the documents" Natalia said.


Natalia and Achmad left Carlos's boarding house. A starving Natalia asks to be escorted to a fast food restaurant. Natalia brought Achmad breakfast. When Natalia was about to pay, Achmad had already invested some purchases.


"Kok, did you pay, Mad?" ask Natalia.


Natalia plans to hurt Achmad, but he doesn't like Achmad spending money. His father told him that Achmad regularly sent half his monthly salary to his family in the village. Achmad was the eldest of four children. Both of his parents were farmers. His first sister was Wenny. His second sister and youngest sister were in the third grade of High School and third grade of Junior High School. If his second sister imitates the footsteps of Wenny, through public universities, Achmad can breathe a sigh of relief because the entrance fee is affordable. Even if you get a BIDIK MISI scholarship, tuition is free and get aid money per month. According to Bambang, his second brother Achmad is smart like Wenny. During the meal, Natalia talked a lot about Achmad and his family. Natalia was amazed by Achmad. His heart wavers to carry on his revenge.


"Lia, I want to ask you about our relationship. I-" said Achmad cut off because his mouth was smothered by Natalia.


"I'm not ready, Mad! I also doubt the time to read your message that offended Sapphira! I'm sober. I forgot there was Sapphira between the two of us."


"I love you, Lia. I want you, but I can't hurt Sapphira!"


Achmad stroked Natalia's lips and kissed her gently. Natalia smile. He moved his chair a little away. He sighed and closed his eyes for a moment.


"I love you, Mad and I have been honest to papa about our relationship, but ...."


"But what, Lia?"


"But ..., but it's all a lie, Achmad!"


Natalia laughed out loud."


The red Achmad's face went out. Had Natalia been nearby, Achmad would have hit her. Natalia realized that so she stayed away before speaking. Natalia continues to fall apart. The visitors looked at him with annoyance. Natalia stopped laughing. Achmad. Half an hour later, Natalia came out. He's headed for the car. Natalia's in the car.


Sunday afternoon, Bambang's group left Bandung. Previously, Bambang had Achmad drive Wenny directly to Depok using one of the cars. Bambang agreed to Farid who wanted to take Wenny.
