Everything Has Happened

Elin had just finished taking Meili's phone call and was back at the dinner table with Hannah .

" Elin I'm sorry, I think I have to go now" Hannah said, arriving "what's wrong ? " he asked to panic.

" I forgot something about my job "

" Are you right, not today have you asked for a holiday ? " said Elin staring at Hannah

" yes, but I forgot there was something I had to finish" Hannah said.

" Well, ' 'cause I just wanted to introduce you to my friend "said Elin a little sad "it could be done later Elin" she said smiling.

" Are you leaving now "ask Elin again, seeing that Hannah has moved from her seat.

" yes, I have to go now, I'm sorry I had to leave our breakfast time" Hannah said guiltily , elin's eyes looked at Hannah who kept going to and fro to pick up her stuff ,

" Do you really not want to have breakfast first ? " question Elin and Hannah shook their heads with a smile.

" i tried that and prepared this for you" Hannah explained.

" Are you coming back ? " he asked again, Hannah was silent for a moment with a pounding heart.

" Come back when you've finished your work" he continued.

" I'll call you later" Hannah said with trembling lips.

" Okay, be careful" said Elin and Hannah immediately out of the apartment without turning back to her.

" Is there anything so urgent ? " elin muttered as she stared at the door that had just closed with Hannah gone .

Drrttt drrttt "elin phone ringing.

" I'm already in the lobby" said Meili when the phone was connected to Elin "yes I will immediately go down " replied Elin and immediately went to the door to pick up Meili

After the phone call ended on Elin , Meili sat on the sofa that had been provided in the lobby while waiting for her best friend to come "Hannah" said Meili unconsciously , when he saw the woman who had just come out of the elevator door with her face down, although he did not see her face clearly, Meili was very sure and knew clearly that it was Hannah .

The woman continued to pass him by with her hand that kept wiping the eyes "what's wrong with her ? " meili asked herself, she even forgot to say hello to the woman who had been her brother's lover.

" Meili "call Elin while walking towards Meili sitting "what are you looking at ? " he asked, because seeing Meili staring so focused towards the outside of the apartment "no, let's "take Meili and once again turn to Hannah's body that has disappeared.

" When you don't have to pick me up" said Elin when she was in her apartment "we're one-way Elin, you don't have to feel sorry for me " said Meili.

" Who's in your apartment ? " meili asked when she saw the two dishes placed on the dining table "my friend, but it's gone "he explained.

" Have you had breakfast? , eat with me "take Elin with you, and without answering Meili immediately sat in the chair opposite her "Friend" Meili said repeating Elin's words.

" Yes, I have one more friend besides you" said Elin laughing "then where is she now ? " tanya Meili was so curious.

" It's not like I've said that he's gone, it seems like there's something urgent about his job " explains Elin.

" Eat it, it's "elin's pinta, Meili knitted his eyebrows together when he saw the shape of the pancake in front of him "what's wrong? , , Don't you like it ? " ask Elin because she sees Meili just staring at the pancakes without touching them.

" Do you want anything else ? " he said again.

" Have your friends been away long ?" ask mlMeili "no, it looks like you met in the lobby " explains Elin.

" Areally? , unfortunately I did not realize "meili said laughing but with an erratic mind, he still tried to deny when he saw the pancake in front of him , pancakes with a picture of a smile made from food coloring, which is exactly the same as Hannah's made how many times she tried while in Daniel's apartment, '' '' ' he said , but he stopped denying when he realized that there was no one else he had met in the lobby other than Hannah .

" If it's him, why is the world so narrow " murmured Meili slowly.

" What did you say to Meil ? " ask Elin who heard faintly Meili's mutter, "no, finish your meal we must leave for campus immediately " said Meili and Elin quickly chewed the food because they realized the hour hand that was already showing at half ten in the morning .

****

Hannah could no longer move her legs any further, the tears she had held since before Elin, she could no longer prevent them from dripping.

On the seat of her body that was already so weak on the garden chair, Hannah continued to cry even her cries sounded so bitter , several times he patted his chest trying to stop crying but his tears were flowing so hard.

" stop Hannah, stop crying, this is your own karma, now you know what it's like to be Daniel" she said to herself in her tears.

" Why should this be like God, what is this punishment for me ? "

" it's really painful "he said again by holding his chest.

Hannah continued to cry and buried her face in both legs resting on the chair "now what should I do ? " he said , anger , disappointment & guilt so filled his mind and heart now .

Things get so complicated and Hannah is confused as to what to do, but she doesn't readily accept the fact that the man she loves is now in love with her best friend .

" Stop crying, everyone is staring at you" said someone Hannah had not realized had been in front of her ever since .

" Go "say hannah without looking.

" I said go "cried Hannah by looking so angry at the man in front of her "I just wanted to protect you " mike said, opening wide to the two sides of the jacket he wore to cover Hannah's face.

" I don't need your protection, go Mike "

" I'm going to go, as long as you stop crying "said Mike so calmly, "ceh, you're so naive Mike , all this is your fault, you're the cause of this cry " said Hannah who came back crying because of the tightness in her chest.

" If you weren't present, my relationship with Daniel would still be fine, but you came and broke it, you broke it Mike "sobbed Hannah sobbing.

" I'm sorry Hannah, but everything's happened and I wouldn't have come in if you hadn't opened the door for me "

" Ceh, it's all because you came, you forced to keep going in, you caused everything, now go away, I really don't want to see you again " hannah said so emotionally.

" I said go Mike "shouted Hannah and manage his gaze on Mike "there's no point in blaming Hannah for each other, me and you are just as wrong for betraying Daniel "

" You who betrayed me, you who betrayed your own brother only to come near me, you who kept forcing me to be by my side even though you knew that I only loved Daniel , '' he said , you're the cause of all this trouble "

Mike can no longer speak, Hannah deserves to blame, she is aware of her attitude all along, who always takes the opportunity to get close to Hannah, Hannah , even though he knew that the woman he loved already belonged to his brother.

" I deeply regret this Hannah , even I am so sorry after seeing Daniel so hate me , I was blinded by love , without thinking that my actions were a fatal mistake " mike said so weakly and sat down next to Hannah.

" But everything has happened, Daniel will not forgive me nor will he return to you "

" You talk so easily Mike, you don't know how painful it is in my position right now "

" I hope this is our last meeting, and don't come to my face again " said Hannah who got up from the park chair and left Mike who was still sitting with eyes that kept staring at him .
