Uta & Alber [EN]
157. Honest in the Heart

POV Author


Now they're in the VIP room of a fancy restaurant. Alber brought Uta to lunch on the advice of Dery's doctor. A variety of delicious dishes have been presented in front of them. But the girl did not touch the dishes at all. He just stared at the man in front of him.


"Do you not like the menu. We can change what you like." Said Alber giving an option because Uta looked unappetizing.


"I want to go home. I eat at home." Uta said what she wanted now.


"If that's what you want, then let this food be redundant." Answer Alber casually. He seems to be well aware of what is the weakness of Uta. Uta did not like to waste food.


"ALBER!! You are so happy." Uta looked straight at Alber. He's too upset because Alber's been doing everything he wanted all day.


"Did your ulcer relapse because I was stressing you out? Did my attitude yesterday weigh on your mind?" Ask Alber this time with as gentle intonation as possible. There was a regret in his words. Uta who was aware of that, chose silence. He was also confused as to what to say to Alber. The events of these few days, make it often so over thinking.


"sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to stress you out. It's just ..." Alber really said. Uta looked fixed.


"Just I'm disappointed you went missing without saying goodbye. 5 years Ta. 5 years I waited for your news. Even if there is no." Alber was honest about his heart. He could not shake the disappointment that existed, when Uta disappeared just like that.


"I also don't understand what happened to me yesterday. I don't want to act like yesterday. It's just that I admit, disappointment beats it all." Alber was honest.


"But really, I have no intention of treating you badly. Moreover, until you stress the mind, there is nothing in any of my goals. Sorry, I'm sorry. Don't be sick anymore." He spoke softly to Uta. From now on he felt, he was the cause of Uta to get sick.


I said Ber. I came that day, only you and Ayleen were ... *those


"sorry. I'm the one who's sorry. You're right, I went missing without any news. You are disappointed with me. I was wrong Ber. I should be the one apologizing." Uta said she chose not to be frank about the events before.


"Don't feel guilty Ber, I don't feel you're weighing on my mind. Just so, I like to adapt again in Jakarta. That may be a trigger for excess stress. No need to apologize and feel guilty. I'm okay." Uta continued again, calming Alber. He felt unbearable, Alber blamed himself for the stress that Uta experienced.


"You have to eat now. I don't want you to relapse again." Persuade Alber to let Uta fill his stomach. The girl finally collapsed and complied. He began to slowly eat abalone porridge and some delicious side dishes that are not spicy there. After making sure Uta ate some bribes, Alber started eating.

"Thank you for taking me to the hospital. Thanks for the food too. Since it's late afternoon, I'm saying back to Ber." Uta pamit came home after they finished lunch to the afternoon. He felt like he wanted to rest soon after. Alber who understood that nodded.


"Come, I'll take you home." Said later.


"Alber don't have to." Uta rejects Alber's good intentions to drive him home.


"Why, I promise to just take you home." Said Alber who was worried because Uta really refused to be ushered. Uta looked at him, waiting for logical reasons that could be accepted common sense.


"I ..." Uta seemed hesitant to say the real reason.


"I don't want to be taken home by someone's husband." He said straight then. Very loud and clear to Alber who was looking at him in disbelief.


"Ba... What did you just say?"
