Suddenly a Husband

Suddenly a Husband
Messed


Even though the night is getting late, I can't sleep. Just lie down, right side down, left side down, sit down, get up and lie down again. So it continued until I finally decided to contact someone who would listen to my story, who else if not Reni. Actually I didn't expect him to reply soon because he knew it was too late, but Reni did.


[If you want to talk, come here. I'm waiting for you in the front room of the ER.] reply Reni who was guarding the night in the hospital.


[Okay, I'll slide right there.] Because I could not sleep and did not know what to do, I finally gasped to the hospital that was still in our campus area. Not too far from my house either.


Arriving in front of the ER, Reni waved to me and asked me to wait a while because she had to go inside to avoid coming home and taking her bag.


"You want to skip?" I asked, because I know usually if he keeps the night until morning.


"Nothing at all. Partly bored also so good children continue, when else it feels like truant. It's free to have an eternal student friend if you're still a good kid." He chuckles. I don't really care. "Where are we going to talk? How about in East Lesehan the hospital? This clock is usually not too crowded. I want to eat fried catfish."


Reni took me on foot there because the distance was not too far away. I had taken a ride on the motorbike or his car because even though the distance is close, but the East is notoriously vulnerable. Many motorcycle gangs like to run.


"It's okay, there's you. We'll face the hoodlums together." Reni.


Along the way, Reni kept talking while I was silent a thousand languages. Not even what Reni said I responded. "It seems like your problem is heavy, Ben, so it's too." he re-opened the conversation when the food was ordered.


"Chall tell me to marry" I said, straight to the topic. "Either what he thought, even though college had not yet graduated, the future was still bleak. Even suddenly asked for marriage after six years I've been tainted."


"Oh," Reni who looked startled only nodded. "It is only natural that you are twenty-four. It is only natural that you think about a soul mate. That's why I always ngingetin you to seriously college so I can get married soon. But


by the way, you don't have a candidate, Ben, then who's married? How about me?"


Reni smiled at me, she could still joke around when I was so tired that my head would break.


"How's Ben?' He's still staring at me.


"Don't joke. I'm serious!" I said.


"Who is joking, am I serious too? Now, just marry me instead of dizziness. Done, right, your problem. I won't sue prospective undergraduate husband, no matter you continue to work in the cafe. You are free to be yourself. Delicious, right? We can stay relaxed like this."


"She wants me to marry Johana" I said.


"Yohana? Is she your sister-in-law?" now Reni just looks serious.


"Bang Sigit, her husband is dead" I said.


"I don't know" I said.


"How could you not know. You have power over yourself. Your feelings are your own feelings." said Reni. "Or maybe you still love her too. Is that right, Ben?" ask Reni again


"Either. I obviously hate him." Yohana, that woman was once very enthroned in my life, even for the sake of being able to unite with her I was willing to oppose Abah's decision which I judged unfair. But all my struggles were clapping one hand. He betrayed me, or sometimes I think he didn't really love me as much as I felt because he was relaxed about marriage with my brother. Unheard in my ears she was at odds with her husband. They always look compact and friendly.


Ever since he married bang Sigit, I've killed that taste. Once felt very frustrated to intend to end this life, but not because I think one day can move on from him. He can easily forget me, why can't I forget him who betrayed me. Women don't seem to deserve my heart anymore. I really hate Yohana.


"Ben, are you going to marry her?" asked Reni again, making me realize from daydream.


"Either Ren, I hate him."


"Ben, if there's a woman who's currently professing her love for you, would you choose her as your future wife?"


"meaning?"


We stopped for a moment because our order came.


"Ben, I don't want you to marry Yohana because other than she once broke your heart and was so devastated, I love you too. I want to be your wife, Ben. To be the only woman you love." Reni made a confession.


"What are you talking about, Ren? It's night. Eat soon and we'll go home." I pulled out a plate filled with catfish to burn my order. I don't want this talk to go anywhere, I mean invite him to meet to enlighten instead of hearing his jokes.


"I'm serious, Ben. I love you."


"What is this empty egg? I don't need to be pitied. I just want you to hear my story. I'm not that sad after all. We're friends, Ren."


"There is no such thing as a pure friendship that is really a friend between a man and a woman. Someone must be in love, one or both. And I really feel in love with you Ben."


"You betrayed our friendship!"


"Yes, whatever you want to say. But that's how I feel. I'm in love with you, Ben. Can I have a chance?"


"Fiufgg, what the hell is Ren? Why add to the burden of my mind. I vent to get your solution even more problems. Ahhh, I want to go home the same. Tired me. It's messed up, everything's really getting messed up!" while nagging I went back to the hospital to pick up my bike. I let Reni alone in Lesehan.


Along the way, I don't think about Reni. Why does he even talk like that. Usually it is the most pleasant place to confide in because talking to him can make my heart calm, but this time it is the opposite. I'm getting dizzy. My problems are growing.
