Regret Room

Regret Room
A soul mate?


"From now on you keep smiling, tell Papa, what made you smile earlier?" asked the middle-aged man in front of Angga who was pensive while smiling to himself earlier. In his big company, now he is not alone, both with his father who comes occasionally to see their family company.


"A girl, Pa."


"Are you not related to Lila anymore?"


Angga.


"While breaking, Pa."


"So last night I met another girl who made you forget about Lila?"


"It seems." Angga chuckles.


"Beautiful?"


"Very pretty. He was also resolute, completely different from the women I knew before."


His father nodded his head, after which he went out to return home and again handed the company into the hands of his son.


"Germany, I've been thinking about you all day. Your smile is so alluring, the scent of your body is what makes me crazy."


Angga put his hands behind his head, the shadow of Seruni last night made Angga so unsettled. Hoping that Seruni would call her and say she wanted to work for her company. He thought, all women are the same kind of Seruni, easy to carry and be invited everywhere. It turns out that doesn't apply to Seruni. And Angga was really challenged to approach the girl.


Meanwhile, Seruni had just finished folding the clothes that had dried from the clothesline when she heard the door of the contract being knocked on. Seruni guessed it must be the delivery of Bima's errand food.


"A moment, Bang," Seruni exclaimed from the room and walked forward and opened the door.


It turned out that the assumption was wrong, what came was Bima directly. The man was wearing a uniform covered in a jacket. Long time no see and meeting last night at the Lesehan stall accidentally made the atmosphere a little awkward but scented longing.


"Come in, Bim." Although not ketus as usual, but Seruni still keep a distance from Bima who has now removed his shoes and socks.


"Eat, you must be hungry."


Bima put the food on the table of the living room, there are two food bags, meaning one for him and another for Bima. Will they eat together?


"You want to eat here too?" ask Seruni who is still standing. Bima did not answer with words, only nodded. Presumably, there was something different about the man's current attitude. Is it because of last night? However, Seruni as soon as possible prevented himself from thinking that much. Maybe he was too confident.


Seruni finally sat right in front of the man, opening the package of good food presented before his eyes. The two began to eat in silence, but once in a while, Seruni could feel, Bima often looked at him closely.


"Who was the guy last night, Run?" the question then, exactly as expected Seruni.


"My eye."


"I don't feel good about rejecting it. He's an important guest of my superiors."


"Push him every time he wants to be close to you. I don't like it!"


Seruni lost her appetite all of a sudden. Bima became so possessive of himself that clearly they had no relation whatsoever.


"We have no relationship ..."


"There is now! I'm gonna propose to you! I don't care if you turn down a million times."


Seruni shook his head, he could not think of the way the man in front of him thought.


"You're not well, Bim. You're talking slog. You think married people can be as easy and as nice as you talk right now. If you only wanted to make amends for your mistakes first, never mind, I'd already forgotten about it. It's better if you never bother me again. What is marriage for if ..."


"I love you," cut Bima fast.


Silent seruni. He knew that behind his disappointment all this time, there was something that was already side by side. It feels for Bima now not just hate anymore but there is another sense that accompanies, something that is very thin in comparison, something that is still trying to press Seruni deep in the bottom of his heart.


"I'm jealous to see you with another man, Run." Bima stopped her sentence, looking at Seruni who was also looking at her sharply.


"Here you go, don't brag." Seruni moved, lifting the empty food box. Bima followed him to the back, then to the bathroom and cleaned his mouth as well as his hands.


"I'm not bragging. If I'm bragging, of course my marriage to Atikah I won't cancel."


Seruni was silent again. He just looked at Bima who was now wearing back socks and shoes.


"Later I'll pick you up after you work, I can't force you to stop working right away from that place, but I'm more than capable of living and even buying luxury items for you if we get married later."


"Bim, you're confident in saying that as if I were your soul mate. "


"You are my soul mate, Seruni."


"What are you saying that silly thing about? You know I hate you so much."


Bima looked at Seruni fixedly then unexpectedly by Seruni, the man grabbed her face and kissed her forehead. Seruni was aghast but could not protest because suddenly his tongue was a bit off, he just hoped that no neighbors would witness the impromptu romantic scene.


"For I am the owner of your honor, Seruni."


Bima then turned and walked away from Seruni's contract with the woman who was still silent with Bima's treatment earlier. He did not understand where the hatred was, why yawn just like that? While Seruni remained determined not to open her heart to Bima.
