The Light of Love Arion
CHAPTER 17

The light just fell silent, this was not his fault. Why is she always being cornered about the problem of pregnancy by the Bayu family.

The light no longer has appetite. He finished his dinner, though it wasn't over, and went into his room. He sat down again on the edge of the bed looking at his cell phone.

Rion, how are you? Are you happy there now? Rion, if I were still the same as you, maybe my life wouldn't be like this.

"Yes..."

The light shrank her tears that were about to fall and shifted her gaze.

"Yes, if in front of my parents, you don't act like this."

"Emang why? I don't know what it's like to hurt me every time I talk about pregnancy. Though I'm okay, the problem is you. I've been trying to cover everything up, as if I'm barren and can't have offspring." Then the Light threw itself out and hugged the bolster.

"Yes, I'm sorry about this. I've also been on medication but it hasn't worked."

"You are selfish."

"Yes..." Bayu climbed onto the bed and hugged the Light from behind. "Yes, I'm sorry. All right, I'll change the structure and make your name as a director before the company is officially sold but if the chief director who bought the company later changes your position, you can't do anything."

"Seriously? Yeah, it's okay, the important thing is I'm still in Papa's company."

"Yes, but remember. If you work, you must know the time."

A small smile expanded on the lips of Light, finally she could feel a bit of freedom outside the house.

"Yes, let's try again," Bayu said as he sniffed Light's neck.

The light shakes its head. "I'm still on red."

"Yes, you just rest." Bayu further tightened his embrace.

The light could not close both of his eyes. He was still thinking about Arion. Although sometimes he feels guilty already having a husband but instead think of other men.

Rion, I miss you...

...***...

Arion opened his eyes that morning. He rubbed his face because he had just dreamed of Light.

Rion, get me out of here...

In his dream it is very clear if the Light is crying and wants to go with him.

"Sure, what exactly happened to you?" Arion got out of bed and grabbed his phone, then opened the rooftop door. He was now sitting while looking at the sky which was still timidly showing its radiance.

"I think I should join the reunion." Then Arion called Nindi. The connecting tone was connected long enough until Nindi finally raised the call.

"Yes, hello..."

"Nindi, I'll join the reunion."

"Eh, Mr. Arion. Sorry sir, I just woke up. Kirain who's on the phone early in the morning."

"Yes, sorry to bother you. I'll pick you up later. We'll just go together. Your house is still, right?"

"Yes stay dong, sir. We haven't moved yet." Nindi laughed at the end of there. Since High School, Nindi really likes to tease Arion.

"okay." Then Arion turned off his call. He looked back at the slowly starting sky. He inhaled the morning air slowly and then exhaled it.

...***...

Light came to the reunion with Bayu. The two of them joined hands as if they were truly a harmonious couple.

Some of the Light friends have arrived. Some bring children who are toddlers, some even have two children.

"Yes, how are you?" nita asked as she approached and hugged the Light for a moment.

"good. How many months pregnant?" tanya Light while rubbing the stomach of Nita who already looks big.

"It's been seven months. What age is your child?"

The light fell silent for a moment then he shook his head slowly. "I don't have any children yet."

"Definitely the program first yes, want to date first." Nita Entertainments. "It's okay, it'll be loved too. Join the other friends yuk."

"Hey, that's so funny..." The light will hold the one-year-old girl but cry.

"Amel, coming with aunty is okay. Don't cry" said the princess, holding her still-crying child. "Maclum I'm the only one keeping 24 hours so he doesn't want to come with anyone else."

"It's okay. Very funny."

"Said Nindi's home? Why haven't you come yet?" ask Nita.

The light shrugged both of his shoulders. "I don't know, who asked me to reunite with him but he hasn't come yet."

"Eh, it's Nindi. Same who?" nita asked while pointing at Nindi who was walking with Arion. They both just passed the door of the cafe.

"Kayak Arion."

The light stared at him. Is that really Arion? He looked more handsome and dashing in his suit.

The more Arion approached, the clearer his face became. He smiled at the light.

"Sorry, I'm late..." Then Nindi joined the other friends.

The light was still staring stiffly at Arion. It's his first meeting after four years at his wedding reception.

"Rion, how are you? Totally changed. We barely recognize." Faris shook Arion's hand. Some friends also asked him how he was doing.

"Where do you live? We never met."

"I'm staying in this town. Yeah maybe we're both busy in different places." The tip of Arion's eyes glanced at the Light who was still staring at him.

"Yes, how are you? Finally, my bestie we meet again." Nindi hugged the Light for a moment.

"Yes, you're going to stay here, right?"

"Yes, I work for Rion's company."

"Rion, you have your own company now? If there is a vacancy can be shared in the group," said some friends.

"I'm not in a group."

"Oiya, woy admin enter our main director at PT looking for true love." They all laughed at the joke.

Arion now looked at the Light and approached him. "Yes, how are you?" Arion stretched out his hand.

Bayu who had been lurking immediately stood up but Fadil actually spilled food on his shirt.

"Sorry bro, I didn't accidentally. Just clean it up in the toilet." Fadil deliberately pulled Bayu to go to the toilet.

"Good." The light returned Arion's hand. The hand that once held it was still warm. If only he could feel the grip of the hand even longer, but it was impossible.

Then Arion took off his hand and sat down near the Light. "You're the same Bayu? Where's she?"

The light just shook a little. It felt like he was still awkward being near Arion. From this moment his chest pounded incoherently.

"Yes, ciee, gerogi." Nindi nudged the Light arm.

"Rion, still single? Could be a pebinor."

Arion just laughed then took a drink and gulped it down.

"Eh, I have a list, then wait for his widow Aya. I'm still single, too" Nindi said. Then he whispered in the ear of Light. "If I were with Rion, would you agree?"

"Yes, if Rion wants to ya whatever."

"Oh my God, the seeds of love in your heart have withered?"

The light just pushed Nindi's arm. "Lt!"

Then Arion took an orange drink for Light. "Your favorite fresh orange drink."

Not yet did the Light receive him, Bayu came and pulled his hand. "We're going home now!"
