Stay or Leave

For a long time Ayunda muttered to herself in front of the mirror. Until finally Ayunda realized that her husband was waiting for her.

Ayunda rushed to finish her bath.

After finishing, Ayunda immediately came out to her husband.

“Take a shower, mas, I’ve prepared the water,” Ayunda said to David, who only David nodded.

After David entered the bathroom, Ayunda immediately put on her clothes and prepared her husband’s clothes.

after a while David also finished his bath and then Ayunda stood up to approach her husband and handed over clothes for David to change. David accepted it without saying a word to Ayunda.

Ayunda, who is getting used to it, doesn’t mind it. although in her heart it also hurts to be treated coldly by her husband who used to love her so much.

“I want to have dinner, what do you want to eat?” Ayunda asked after seeing her husband already wearing his clothes.

“Hey,” David answered with a mumble.

Ayunda is really like talking to a statue. there was no response whatsoever from the husband.

I don’t know what he did wrong, so his husband didn’t want to talk to him.

The two of them got off their dinner shirts. There was already food prepared by aunt.

Ayunda sat beside David because Bella wasn’t around. because as long as Bella is around, Ayunda sits far from David when eating together.

Ayunda served her husband by bringing him rice and side dishes that David liked.

Ayunda really misses this kind of atmosphere, it’s just that it’s accompanied by a smile from both of them, not like now there is only silence that surrounds the two of them.

They both ate in silence, only the sound of the clinking of spoons could be heard.

Ayunda swallows her food with difficulty, actually she has no appetite. But in order to maintain his health, Ayunda forced him to swallow the food.

Night’s getting late. Ayunda was getting ready to sleep but was startled by David’s voice.

“Don’t sleep yet, I want you” David said, hugging Ayunda from behind and kissing Ayunda’s neck. And Ayunda could not refuse her husband’s wish, until finally there was a union by the husband and wife.

“Thank you” David said after they finished their duties.

“Hmm,” Ayunda mumbled, still holding her breath.

“I have to accompany Bella and Mama in the hospital,” said David, who had woken up from beside Ayunda and was wearing his clothes again.

It’s been a month now, David is in Ayunda’s room just to ask Ayunda for his rights on the grounds that Bella is heavily pregnant and Bella often urinates so it’s not comfortable to have sex. And Ayunda did not mind it.

“You heard what I said?” David asked Ayunda because Ayunda had not answered him.

There are no more affectionate calls that come out of David’s mouth for his first wife and Ayunda can only accept it.

“Yeah, let’s go mas” Ayunda said while biting her lip to hold back the tears that were about to roll down her cheeks again.

“Okay, be careful while at home” David said then left Ayunda who was still curled up wrapped in a blanket.

After hearing the sound of the door closing, without a second, Ayunda’s tears came out profusely.

“Will I forever be in the sphere of this complicated household?. I want to end it all,, Am I the one who has to leave here,,?. It’s also impossible for David to want to divorce Bella because Bella has given him offspring. What if I resigned, Mas David, would also hold me back so I wouldn’t leave him? Am I still in his heart? Am I still loved by mas David? Various questions arose in Ayunda’s mind in her tears.

Ayunda got up from the bed to clean herself again after the activities with her husband earlier. Still in tears, Ayunda stepped into the bathroom with a blanket covering her innocent body.

now Ayunda is in front of her dressing table. Staring at her very messy self. Puffy eyes and a thin body.

“God,, strengthen me so that I can smile again as usual. I want to be a strong woman. if you don’t allow me to be happy in this world then call me as soon as possible so I can meet my father and mother who never hurt me.” Ayunda muttered, who seemed to have given up on her situation.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

David was on his way to the hospital to accompany his second wife and mother who were there. But before that, David called someone to meet him.

“Hello” said David when the call was picked up from the person.

“Yes,” answered someone on the other end of the phone

“I want us to meet at xxx” said David and then turned off the phone before getting an answer from the recipient.

After disconnecting the call, David immediately drove his car back to the place that David had said earlier on the phone.

*****

not until it took an hour, David had arrived at the destination, it turned out to be a club.

David entered the room they used to go to when they were friends.

after arriving at the room, it turned out that someone who David had called was already there sitting and holding his hand to his chest.

“What is it?” Someone asked tovthe point at David when David was sitting in front of him.

“Don’t you want to make small talk first, friend, or we enjoy the drinks that are already available in this place first. Let’s just say we’re having a reunion, aren’t we friends?” said David sarcastically.

“Friends,,, quite interestingmore precisely a friend who stabbed in the back” said someone in front of David.

“Apparently you still haven’t accepted your defeat, Mal, it’s a shame even though it’s been a very long time,” said David arrogantly.

“You are very cunning, Dav, for the sake of getting the woman I love, you framed me so that the woman I love left me and you entered her life as if you were a hero who could treat her pain and now you are the one destroying her life” Akmal said piercingly.

Yes, someone on David’s phone is Akmal.

“I admit you managed to heal the wound I inflicted on him due to your cunning. But you are also the one who grew the wound back even deeper,” said Akmal.
