[NOT] Beautiful Wedding
Ch.44 The fragile soul

I don't know what Damar is thinking right now, Oryza is really curious. So many shocking dramas are happening today, from being an impromptu personal secretary, to the arrival of the mother of her superiors who was so kind to her that she was confused, then now they shop together with Damar like a newlywed couple.

The flashback

"Assalamu'alaikum," said someone in a soft voice as he opened the door. Oryza who still seemed to wipe while sorting books according to the alphabet then turned his head and answered the speech along with Damar.

"Wa'alaikum salam" said Oryza and Damar together. "Ah, mama has finally come! You know that you are very hungry," said Damar while smiling sweetly after greeting his mother and hugging her dearly.

Oryza, whose hand is holding a rag and a book until it is glued to the interaction of mother and child. His superior even to smile very sweet makes his good looks up many times. Oryza unconsciously praised him in his heart.

"Za," call Damar. "Oryza," he exclaimed as he patted Oryza's dumbstruck shoulder, causing him to flinch and feel ashamed of himself.

"Eh, i-a-what's the matter, sir?" ask Oryza.

"What dreamy night? Mama I hit you many times but not nyahut even dumb. Oooh, surely he was amazed by this mama, already aged but still beautiful," said Damar with a cheerful face. It was very different from his days while he worked here. Oryza wondered, does his boss have a double personality?

"Em .. sorry madam, I daydreamed earlier," Oryza said stammering with a clumsy smile.

"Don't call madam ah, call Auntie, mother, or mama kayak Damar can also," Anggi said while smiling meaningfully.

"Huh? Ah, not ah madam, not polite like that. I am just a regular employee here. What would people say if they knew I was being disrespectful like that," Oryza refused to make Anggi chuckle.

"You're so excited, baby. Why should I think about people's words? I myself asked, so it doesn't matter, right," said Anggi while sitting his ass on the sofa.

"Eeee .. If so, I'll call you!" oryza scratched his neck with his index finger.

"Oh, yeah. Have you eaten?" ask Anggi while opening one by one the paper bag he brought.

Seeing Anggi was taking out something that seemed to be the boss' lunch, Oryza immediately stood up and prepared Damar utensils such as plates, spoons, and water.

"Well, thank you baby!" said Anggi who unceasingly put on a friendly face. "Where are the dishes for you? We eat together. I cook a lot."

Oryza to the point of not expecting, the parents of his superiors were so friendly and gentle. He thought, rich people will certainly be arrogant, but Anggi not at all. It is like seeing a mother who is so perfect in Anggi. Since childhood, he often felt jealous to see his friends who have mothers who are so caring and affectionate to them, unlike his mother who actually keeps her distance and tends to put on a face full of hatred.

Oryza still has a mother, but her mother always ignores her. He used to be so curious why his mother like not liking him and his father, it was because his father and mother were married due to an arranged marriage. Therefore, after he was born, Oryza's mother seemed to give up her responsibilities. She felt that her duties as a wife were over so she was free to do what she wanted. His mother cheated on him and then completely abandoned his father. Made his father fall down, sickly, then died.

Remembering that, suddenly Oryza's chest felt tight and his eyes felt hot. Clear glass framing Oryza's clear eyeballs. Damar who first realized this then approached and patted slowly Oryza's shoulder. Oryza then looked. That gaze implied an unspeakable wound. Oryza then blinked slowly, the clear circle was successful in wetting his cheeks smooth white without much polish.

Damar's chest instantly tightened. His heart seemed to be gripped and squeezed so firmly. It felt like Damar was clutching that fragile body into his arms. Unfortunately, he could not do that.

Anggi who understood the situation seemed to Oryza suddenly remembered something that made him sad then stood up and grabbed him into his arms. The swabbing of Oryza's back that shook from holding up the sobbing. He could feel, Oryza was suffering a deep sorrow in his silence.

Anggi understand, Damar had told about the affair of her ex-husband who incised wounds. As a woman who has also felt the pain of being cheated on, of course she understands the suffering and solace of Oryza who is quiet. But apparently, there was another wound that no one else knew about. After all, she was female and she could feel. However, Anggi could not ask much. There will be a day, Oryza will reveal everything without feeling awkward anymore. Anggi sure of it.
