Foggy morning. The sun's rays were still tightly wrapped in thin clouds around him. Raindrops complete colouring Hendra's wistful morning grew even more wistful. For several days, he and his girlfriend did not communicate with each other. Since the incident at lunchtime quarrel, there has been no communication between them at all.
Today, Hendra came early. As usual, he parked his vehicle and then took out an umbrella from his car. A moment after the umbrella was opened, a woman stood upright in front of Hendra. He let the raindrops run down his face.
"Diyana"
For a moment, Hendra was stunned. His gaze could not escape the woman. A deep longing was clearly drawn to the look on his face.
"Hendra, can we talk?"
"Oh sure, let's go to my room." Hendra's mind began to fret.
A few moments later, the two had reached Hendra's room. With a serious face, Diyana started the conversation.
"I want to resign from this place."
"Huh? What do you mean Diyana? Are you kidding me?"
"I'm serious Hendra."
"Hah, a few days we did not greet each other, then now you come and say you want to quit this job. No, this is Diyana's joke."
"Not Hendra, I'm serious about what I'm saying. Not only will I leave this company, but I will also leave this city."
"What's Wrong With You Diyana? You can't just decide something."
"Why am I staying here? Five years I've been waiting for you Hendra, first you said to me that you would marry me after your marriage with Adelia, second waiting for the baby to be born, third waiting for the situation and conditions to be conducive, and so on Hendra. If there is no hope for me to be your wife, don't give me those false hopes."
Hendra was silent. He realized his mistake.
"Now allow me to quit this job. I can't take it anymore."
Diyana stepped to her feet. She was about to get out of Hendra's room. Suddenly a pair of hands clasped him from behind. A deep feeling flowed in the warmth of the embrace of the big hand.
"Don't leave me Diyana, I can't live without you."
The weak whisper tickled Diyana's ears. It made him doubt the decision he had made.
"I love you so much Diyana, I miss you baby."
Hendra tightens his arms. Not only that, kiss after kiss he gave to small shoulders and neck Diyana. Without showing any resistance, Diyana remained standing still in her position. The heat began to rise. Hendra twisted her lover's body and slowly kissed her little lips.
"Stop Hendra, I won't do it until you give me certainty."
"You discussed it again. Dianne understood my position. I was also caught in this situation. I thought marrying Adelia and accepting the baby would make me rich quick. But you know it yourself, right? You always put it off and put it off."
"Dad again and dad again. That's always been your excuse. My decision is getting unanimous Hendra, I will immediately prepare a resignation letter."
Not wanting to prolong the debate, Diyana came out of Hendra's room with high emotions.
"Diyana, listen to me first. Diyana."
Hendra followed her lover out of the room. Right in front of the door, the figure of his wife was standing, looking at him questioningly.
"Hendra, what happened?"
Hendra did not answer, and he was still staring at Diyana, who was getting out of sight.
"If you want him, go after him Hendra."
"Huh?"Hendra was surprised by Adelia's words.
"You love him, don't you? Go after him."
"We will discuss this matter soon Adelia." Hendra ran after Diyana.
Devastated, Adelia watched her husband chase another woman in front of her eyes. Something he had been afraid of had happened.

"Diyana, wait for me."
Without uttering a word, Diyana stopped her steps.
"Please take your words back. You can't quit this job."
"My decision is unanimous Hendra. You won't understand how I feel. You can't leave Adelia, can you? Just let me go."
"Not Diyana, nor will I be able to do without you."
"If it's true, prove it. I will always accept you whenever you come to me Hendra. Bye."
This time Diyana has entered the general division room. Many employees were doing their activities there. It was impossible for Hendra to catch up with Diyana. Hendra turned around. With shuffling steps, he walked towards his study.
'Wait, what about Adelia? It seems that he has found out about my relationship and Diyana. Hendra changed his route. He hastened his steps towards Adelia's study.
Knock...Knock...Knock
"Adelia, it's me Hendra, are you inside?"
No answer.
Hendra broke into the room. He saw his wife daydreaming, looking at the glass walls, noticing the arrangement of tall buildings that looked like paintings.
"Adelia"
The woman was surprised and quickly rubbed the drops of water that soaked her cheeks.
"Oh Hendra. Since when are you here?"
"Just now. I knocked on the door but there was no answer."
"Oh I'm sorry Hendra, I didn't hear that."
"What are you doing here?"
"Oh, I'm just relaxing for a moment. Looking out from here makes me feel calm."
"Um... are you thinking about my relationship with Diyana? Did you find out?"
Adelia smiled. She had prepared her heart and mentality in advance to deal with this event.
"Yes, I've known it for a long time Hendra, you love him very much, don't you?"
"How did you find out, Adelia."
"You don't need to know how I am. I'm not a stupid woman who just keeps quiet when you play behind me Hendra. Now tell me what you want?"
"I...."
"You want to live with that woman?"
'No. I couldn't possibly admit it in front of Adelia even though I really wanted to. You can cancel your intention to give me the right of inheritance.'
"Answer my question Hendra, you don't have to worry about it, I'll talk to dad if we can't maintain this household anymore."
"No, not del. It's not like that. Diyana has decided to get away from me. He will soon resign his job and leave this city."
"Really? Why would he do that?"
"I don't know, I couldn't prevent it because it was already Diyana's final decision. So please, there's nothing to talk to dad about."
"Are you sure Hendra? What about your heart? I'm sure all this will be difficult for you. Before it's too late, consider your options carefully Hendra. Maintain this unhappy marriage of yours, or prefer the woman you love and live with. That's your choice right now."
'This woman, why does she seem so tough in such a complicated matter? The Adelia I knew was a weak woman who was never firm and always relied on her tears when faced with big problems. But why is he so different now? What happened to this woman?'
Adelia is back against the glass wall. His broken heart collapsed instantly when his face was no longer facing Hendra. I wanted to cry as hard as I could at the same time, but I was restrained.
"Adelia, I've decided to keep this marriage. I'll let Diyana go because it's already her wish."
A sentence came out of Hendra's lips. Although it sounded insincere, it was enough just to calm Adelia's heart at that time.
