A year.
Songs by Maroon Five... Sounds clear in the ear rie. incoming call on his Android Mobile... He took a long breath. Seen on the Android screen, a call from the father. Actually, he was lazy to lift it. But it felt impolite to ignore his parents, in Rie's mind. Moreover, Rie is the favorite child. Rie took the flat object, receiving an incoming call from her father.
"Hello Pa?" His welcome is a bit weak. "Hey bad boy. You always don't hear papa huh. Papa asks when are you going home? Listen son, you've married Uncle Yuki's son.” Shouted rie's father.
”You are not present anything is okay. Papa as a guardian and the existence of your future husband is not enough. Come home, Rie, look at your husband, son. Don't embarrass papa. Fortunately Uncle Yuki and his family understood.” Bright dad rie.
Rie again and again sighed softly. ”Please excuse papa. Rie loves papa. But papa knows, rie's not ready to get married. Rie doesn't know him at all. Please be patient pa, please give rie time to accept this all. Rie does not reject what you have always decided for the future of rie. Rie just asked to be given time to accept the reality that is already in front of rie's eyes at this time.” Pinta rie to her father.
There was no sound from across there, only a sigh from Rie's father. "alright boy. Papa will talk to your husband and Uncle Yuki. You're good there. Take care of your health." Said Rie's father. Then the phone connection was cut off.
'sorry. Excuse me. Sorry' the complaint is in my heart. 'I was afraid that the man who became my husband could not accept my situation. And to think that I'm not sane with what I have right now' he murmured again.
Rie rubbed his face. Cowering over his bed. His mind wandered somewhere.
'What should I do? I don't know the face that became my husband. How apparently? His character? I don't know. Why would he marry me? But he hasn't seen me. Doesn't it feel weird?. All I know is, Uncle Yuki always comes home. Always with papa.' Rie squealed her temple which was not sick.
Rie stood up from her snuggle. Walk to his bedside. Open closet. Take his Hoodie. Then wear. He grabbed his cell phone and his little bag. Put that flat thing in his bag. Put on his sneakers. Then open the mess door, lock it. And walk out of the hospital area. Stop the taxi passing in front of him.
Taxi stops on the side of the road. Right on the road to the beach. Rie got off the taxi on the ride. After paying and thanking the taxi driver. A taxi passed from in front of Rie.
Rie stopped walking, standing upright on the sand of the beach. Not approaching the beach. It was close to the big road. Rie looked straight at the beach. Seeing the rolling waves. Rie smile. This place could always calm him down when he felt tired with the pressure of his heart. No matter the night or day. Still ringing in his ears, the voice of his father.
"His husband? My status has changed now. Being a married woman. At the age of 20 years. Just finished your education at STIKES. He has only worked for 2 months as a contract employee. Still internship. Still trial.” His murmur was softened in the heart.
And now it's still early to get married. While he was married, though he was not there on his wedding day. It might inflict a wound on the heart of the man who was already her husband due to rie's absence.
'Why don't I ask papa, what kind of man has become my husband? Name, age. How foolish I am' Inner rie. "But I'm not ready. Excuse me. I'm not rejecting you. It only takes time to accept you and this situation" he said slowly.
Rie woke up from her daydream. When someone walks in and accidentally hits his shoulder.
"Sorry miss" Pinta said. Rie looked towards that person. A tall man.kira rie thought as the man. With his black hair. His eyes are Hazel. Yellowish white. A very sharp nose. She smiled at rie. Rie was amazed to see the man. Without him knowing. 'Waahhhh... How handsome this guy is. Like a cartoon character in Japanese comic comics' Inner. His eyes did not blink.
"Miss, are you okay?" Asked the man to throw rie daydream.
"Eh. I'm fine." Answer rie. Then rie returned the smile of the man, then rie fell silent and started to remember. "I think I've seen you. But where is it?" Remember rie. But he can't remember it.
The man smiled. Then passed from before rie.
