Not a Great Wedding
4. Resignedly

"Are you okay?" Adrian asked, Stella's father when he saw Stella was moody.

"Hemm" Stella replied.

""What happened to you?(Did something happen to you?)" Adrian asked Stella.

"No, I'm fine dad!."

"But I see some days you look moody, usually when you go home to Indonesia you never miss the time to go for a walk."

"Stella just wants to take a break from Dady."

Adrian feels something is wrong with his daughter, but he won't force her if Stella doesn't want to tell him a story.

"Dady didn't go to the office?"

"It's a holiday dear." replied Adrian.

Stella looked down weakly, it turned out that he had been locked himself in the house for more than a week.

"Is Mommy home.?"

Adrian shook his head.

"Are you going to continue your education in Indonesia?" Tanya Adrian switched the conversation. He knew that moments like this a child desperately needed the attention of his mother, but Stella never got blue from Ameera.

"Stella doesn't know dad yet, maybe next week Stella will return to Australia."

"Well, whatever your decision may be, Dady will still support it." Adrian pats Stella's arm.

"Thank you dad!."

Adrian came out of Stella's room.

Stella returned to her body. A healthy body feels weak, as if it is experiencing severe pain.

It's been over a week since that night, but Daniel hasn't called her.

Could Daniel never marry her?

What about his revenge plan?

Let alone revenge, at this time to help himself Stella can not.

Stella closed her eyes and prayed for the creator to give her a way out.

"Is this the result of my malicious intent to take revenge? But Leo's been too evil, Leo's got to get his payback." Stella monologue.

"Maybe I should go back to Australia, at least there I can forget about this, and move on with my life.!" stella said.

Today Leo is home sooner than usual, so Leo can have dinner with his parents.

"How is your brother progressing ?" Ask Mr. Primary Daniel and Leo's father.

"Leo see the development is quite good, Bang Daniel already wants to live his life again."Answer Daniel.

"But mama saw the last few days your brother was having a lot of trouble at dinner, he refused. You better see first the situation of your brother Lee," continued Mama Viona.

"Yes Mam, after eating Leo met Bang Daniel."

"You keep an eye on the situation," continued Mr. Pratama.

Leo nodded in understanding.

Mr. Pratama and Ms. Viona handed over all of Daniel's treatment to Leo, even Leo who could often persuade Daniel da when his emotions were not stable.

As a psychiatrist, Leo may understand better how to communicate with a depressed person.

"Well, Mom, Leo up first, Leo wants to see Daniel's bang." said Leo after dinner.

"She, look at Daniel's situation. Maybe he's in trouble." Answer mr. Pratama.

Leo left his father and mother who were still talking at the dinner table.

Geck..Geck..

Leo knocked on Daniel's door.

"Just get in." Answer Daniel from within.

Leo entered Daniel's room with a dull tone, Since the departure of Shanum Daniel did choose to remain silent in a dim state.

As usual Leo will find Daniel is staring at a picture of his wedding with Shanum.

Leo didn't want to bother Daniel.

Leo checked the medicine she gave Daniel,

And sure enough the medicine he gave was still intact.

Leo sat on the edge of the bed

"Well, why isn't the medicine being taken?"Ask Leo in a slow tone.

Leo has to be careful when communicating with Daniel.

Because Daniel's emotions can get out of control when he feels his life is nosy.

"For what, then,?"Daniel answered coldly.

"Bang, you and Mama, they're worried about your brother."

Daniel was silent, and exhaled a rough breath.

"Why are you so worried about my life? While you know that my life has been over since Shanum's departure."

"We all just miss the bang Daniel used to be, so fight to get up, ." Leo answered, and went out of Daniel's room.

Daniel's heart was touched by Leo's words.

Maybe for too long Daniel ignored his family, he did not want to be like this. But losing Shanum really hurt his heart.

Daniel broke his body with his legs still hanging on the edge of the bed.

His eyes slowly closed, the real world had already changed with the world of his dreams.

In his dream Daniel was walking in the dark as if hearing the voice of someone asking for help.

Daniel searched and approached the source of the voice.

Daniel saw a girl crying while sitting and hiding her face between her knees.

"You who? why are you crying in the dark like this?" Daniel asked the woman.

Slowly the girl raised her face.

"You!" Daniel was surprised to see that the girl was the one who slept with him a while ago.

"Don't leave me here alone, I'm afraid, take me away from this dark place." Stella said in fear.

"No. I can't take you." Daniel refused, and went away from Stella.

"Please don't leave me" Shouted Stella as she watched Daniel move away from her

The further away Daniel went from Stella the more clearly Stella's voice told him not to leave her.

Daniel also walked faster, even now he was running very fast with sweat that had been pouring.

But, the more he ran away, the more Stella's moaning voice was heard clearly.

Until he finally woke up from his sleep.

With breath gagging and sweat pouring out Daniel sat up from his sleep, his heart pounding, like a man running a marathon.

"That girl. What happened to her?" Daniel said in his heart.

Daniel downed a glass of water that was already available on his bedside nightstand,

Because the dream that had just been in nature made Daniel feel very thirsty and tired.

The incident with Stella that he had forgotten is now back in his memory.
