Stay or Leave

In the morning Ayunda wakes up from her sleep with puffy eyes from crying all night because of David’s actions, which is none other than her husband, she sees David is not in Ayunda’s room.

Ayunda got up from her bed and limped towards the bathroom using a thick blanket that covered her innocent body.

In the bathroom, Ayunda stood under the shower and again shed tears.

“Why don’t you want to listen to my explanation first, bro, is it because your love for me has faded over time? Why do you treat me like a woman who has no self-respect?. I will indeed stay by your side even though your mother and family always mock me with my situation, but if you ask me to leave your side, what can I do, the person I have hoped to be my life companion forever until I get old doesn’t want me anymore”Ayunda thought as she continued to mumble while crying under the shower which poured water all over Ayunda’s body.

“I hope, tomorrow I don’t see you at my house anymore,” said David, putting his clothes back on after forcing Ayunda to ask for his rights.

“Does that mean you kicked me out?” asked Ayunda who was lying with her back to David wrapped in a blanket, not forgetting that the tears that had been coming out were now running down her cheeks after hearing her husband’s words asking her to leave his house.

“Isn’t this your wish so that you can be free to stay wherever you want,” said David sarcastically by looking down on Ayunda and then walking out leaving Ayunda who was still sobbing.

“Is it time for me to leave your life, broall this time I survived because of you but you don’t want me anymore then it means I have to leave your side. You’re right, bro, I have to leave your side because you already have a complete little family,” Ayunda muttered.

ayunda is ready to leave David’s house. Ayunda didn’t bring anything related to David, even the wedding ring that she always put on her ring finger, she took off and kept it with other jewelry that David bought. Ayunda only brought her important files, especially the files about her cafe, she didn’t even bring her clothes. Only the clothes that Ayunda is currently wearing are what Ayunda brings.

Ayunda walked down the stairs to the kitchen to her aunt who was cooking.

“Auntie, Ayunda wants to go first,” said Ayunda with a smile.

“Ma’am Ayu where are you going?” asked Aunt Iyam.

“It’s time for Ayu to go, I pray for Ayu, I hope this is the right decision,” said Ayunda.

“Mbak Ayu is patient, I hope Ms Ayu finds someone who sincerely accepts Ms. Ayu as she is,” said Aunt Iyam sincerely.

After all, in this house, only Iyam’s aunt understands Ayunda’s condition other than David before David changes.

“Yes ma’am, Ayunda walk now,” said Ayunda and hugged Iyam who was like his own mother, and Iyam returned the hug without feeling the tears dripping from her eyes.

“Be careful ma’am,” said Auntie.

after saying goodbye to aunt, Ayunda walked out towards the gate of David’s house. I don’t know where the owner of this house has gone. Bella and her daughter are also not visible bridge of the nose. Ayunda continued to walk, not wanting to ask aunt about the whereabouts of people in this house who were not seen. Arriving at the front, it turns out that there is already an online taxi driver that Ayunda previously ordered. Without wasting any time, Ayunda immediately got into the car that was waiting for her.

“Goodbye, mas, I hope you are happy with your little family now,” Ayunda muttered while looking at David’s house from the car through the glass window.

The car that brought Ayunda cut through the streets of the capital. Ayunda closed her eyes for a moment, after telling the driver her destination.

Knock, knock, knock

There was a knock on the door from outside Leo’s room.

“Come in” Leo replied from inside his room.

“I have found someone who is willing to donate bone marrow to Ayunda,” said Akmal to the point after being invited in by Leo.

“Really? Where is that person?” Leo asked with a twinkle in his eyes that radiated relief.

“There is and the results are suitable according to the doctor who treated Ayunda but the doctor hasn’t notified Ayunda yet,” said Akmal without explaining clearly who the person who wanted to donate bone marrow to Ayunda had the right result.

“Let me contact Ayunda. Thank you for your help, Mal, you can be relied on,” said Leo to Akmal, who always helped with all his affairs, including finding a donor for his sister.

“Then I will continue my work again” Akmal said goodbye to Leo to return to his room.

After Akmal’s departure, Leo immediately called Ayunda but Ayunda’s number was not active. Leo has repeatedly tried to contact Ayunda but has yet to be contacted.

“Where are you, Ay, why is your number so difficult to call?” Leo muttered, ruffling his hair.

“I have to meet Ayunda at her husband’s house, I have to immediately tell Ayunda so that an operation is carried out as soon as possible” Leo continued as he stood up from his seat and walked out of his room.

Akmal is standing near the glass window in his room looking in any direction outside. His memory flashed back to a conversation he had with someone last Sunday.

#flashback on

“I heard that the person you love is currently sick,” said a woman who suddenly sat beside Akmal.

Currently Akmal is sitting alone by the lake. But somehow a woman that Akmal avoids is always around him.

“None of your business” Akmal answered flatly.

“It’s none of my business, I just read the information that was issued by your boss when I was looking for a suitable donor for his sister,” said the woman again.

“What if I will donate it to the person you love but with one request” he continued again.

“What?” asked Akmal.

“Marry me if the results are suitable,” the woman said quietly.

“Okay” without thinking Akmal agreed to the request of the woman sitting beside him.

“You love him so much that you are willing to sacrifice your own happiness,” said Nadia, holding back the pain in her heart. This is because Nadia has always approached Akmal but Akmal has always avoided him. In the past, Nadia did not dare to approach Akmal because Akmal was still Ayunda’s lover. After hearing that Akmal and Ayunda broke up, then Nadia dared to show her interest in Akmal, but until now Akmal is very difficult to reach.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“So are youdo the examination immediately, so that you can find out whether it is suitable or not as soon as possible” said Akmal then stood up from his seat leaving Nadia alone in the lake.

Without warning, Nadia’s tears ran down her cheeks.
