Stay or Leave

After the opening of her new cafe, Ayunda decided to visit her nephew.

After arriving at her sister’s residence, Ayunda went straight in after the door was opened by her aunt.

“Eh, Ayu wants to come here, why don’t you tell me,” said Lisa when she saw her sister-in-law and best friend.

“Yeah, I just wanted to stop by, I was just from opening a new cafe branch,” Ayunda answered

“Congratulations, more success” said Lisa while hugging Ayunda

“Thank you, where is Mother’s child?” Ayunda asked after her arms were released

“He’s in his room with the nurse, want to go there” said Lisa

“Yes, please” Ayunda replied

“Yeah, come on,” said Lisa

“I wash my hands first, you go first I’ll follow” Ayunda said

“Okay” Lisa replied

After washing her hands, Ayunda approached the beautiful baby Leona

“Hi honey, mom really misses you” Ayunda said when she met Leona, Leo and Lisa’s child

“Yes mother, Nana also misses mother,” answered Lisa imitating the voice of a small child.

“Sis Leo, where is Lis?” Ayunda asked

“He’s out with his soulmate,” answered Lisa

“Who?” ask again

“Who else if not Akmal” answered Lisa

“Oh” was the only word that came out of Ayunda’s mouth.

“At least I’ll be home soon,” continued Lisa

And Ayunda just stayed silent while looking at baby Leona with a twinkle in her eye.

“Why are you Ayy?” ask lisa

“You know, Bella is already pregnant. I’m so lucky, I’ve only been married for three months and I can get pregnant right away. while I,” said Ayunda stuttering to hold back the tears that were about to come out

“Patience Ay,, you can definitely get pregnant too” said Lisa hugging Ayunda

“Do I not deserve to be a mother,, I also really want to have children but why until now I have not been trusted” Ayunda said while sobbing

“You can do it, who is strong and patient,” said Lisa soothingly

It doesn’t feel like it’s been a few hours Ayunda’s at her sister’s house. Ayunda can temporarily relieve her sadness at her sister’s house by accompanying her to carry Leona. Even though baby Leona can’t talk yet because she’s only three months old, Ayunda still invites her to chat here and there, and that’s enough to forget the problem now.

“Lis, it’s getting late, I want to go home,” he said goodbye to Lisa

“Don’t wait for Leo first, Ay,” said Lisa

“You don’t have to,,” Ayunda didn’t have time to finish her sentence when she heard the sound of a car from outside.

“Well, Leo has gone home, wait a minute,” said Lisa and then went to her husband.

“Mas, why did you just come home?” Lisa asked

“Yes, there was a bit of a problem, but it’s finally over” Leo replied while kissing Lisa’s forehead.

“Thanks,” said Lisa

“Sis” called Ayunda

“Hey, you’re here” Leo asked his sister

“Yes, it’s been a while, I want to say goodbye to go home”

“Oh, okay, let’s go with Akmal. Mal please take Ayu, here, let me just bring it in,” said Leo, ordering his assistant to take his sister.

“Yes,” replied Akmal

In the car the two of them were silent.

for some reason Akmal doesn’t talk much at this time, until finally they have arrived at the residence of David, Ayunda’s husband.

“Thank you” Ayunda said

“Hmm” was Akmal’s only answer

“Are you okay?” Ayunda asked before opening the car door

“Sure,” Akmal answered shortly

“Okay be careful” Ayunda said then after that she got out of the car before Akmal answered.

Arriving at home then Ayunda entered her room, it turned out that David was already there.

“Where have you been?” David asked

“From Sis Leo’s house, looking at baby Leona” Ayunda answered then shook David’s hand

“Then Akmal brought him home like that,” said David in a disapproving tone

“Yes, sir,” answered Ayunda, who still didn’t understand that her husband was jealous

“Next time you call mas,” said David

“Yes,,, but instead, mas still taking care of Bella” Ayunda said then after that she went to the bathroom.

David clenched his fists in anger.

After finishing cleaning herself, Ayunda came out of the bathroom and saw David still sitting on the sofa.

“Are you still here, sir?” ask Ayunda gently

Because tonight, David’s schedule is sleeping with Bella, so Ayunda was relaxing at her sister’s house until she came home late at night.

“Why,, is there a prohibition for me to enter my own room” said David curtly

“Of course not, sir, but don’t you have to be with Bella tonight?” Ayunda said

“You don’t need to arrange for me where I will sleep, do you feel free now, by going home with another man even though you are already married” said David raising his voice

“What do you mean sir?” ask Ayunda

“Don’t think I don’t know Ayunda, you and Akmal aren’t ex-lover,” said David with emotion.

David’s words really made Ayunda gasped and surprised, apparently her husband knew that Akmal was his former lover. Even his brother doesn’t know about his relationship with Akmal. And what made Ayunda flinched was that David called her name instead of love anymore, especially by raising his voice. David had always been gentle with him, but now David had shown a change.

“But it’s been a long time since we ended,” said Ayunda after removing her shock.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“But no one knows whether the feeling is still there or has disappeared,” said David and then left, leaving Ayunda standing still.

“You’re right, sir, no one knows your heart nor does your heart. Does your heart still have my name, the person you love, or slowly fade away with a new person and replace me, like my current position.” Ayunda muttered after David left her.
