I comb my long fringe backward using my fingers, pulling my shirt that slight down from my shoulder. I walked out from my room, looking around for him. Then, I saw him sitting in the living room's floor. I went to his back and hug him from his back. I put my head at his shoulder, blowing my breath on his neck. How long we did not cuddle since he started this job. The job that leads him to million dollar's income per month. So, is that means that the job is more important than anything.. Or is it because we're just too stable in this 6 years relationship and we start not to worry about it anymore?
He sighed, without looking at me. Although we are just so near, but his heart is far like the stars that I couldn't hold. I hold on to my breath, close my eyes to avoid my tears from flowing to his shirt. He is too bright, too shine, too..perfect for my life. He shines bright in his way. Look at me, am I too dull to stay beside him..? Am I blocking his way to shine..?
Finally he speaks......."Dear, I'm gonna go for a meeting tonight, I will not be home for 3days okay?". Maybe I misinterpret, but I could say he is just informing, I could just cancel the question mark in his sentence. I sound softly, letting him know I get his message. My feeling was heavy, like the gravity just pulling me down to the earth and stop letting me to follow the stars in the sky.
I let go my hand that hugging him.. slowly I move myself away from him. Dear, I love you and I miss you..
I return to our bedroom, pressing the words in my heart that almost ran out from my mouth. I lie on the bed, tears dripped. I was afraid... afraid of losing the love we have.
Maybe girl is just being sensitive, needing the feeling of secure.
When will be the last step you take, that leave me forever? Can you stay till our last breath, even we are fighting for the oxygen left on the earth?
Things and words just keep on running through my brain and then I cross it out again. Maybe, I just need to talk to him. These are part of the words that came to me in this one month, as he is just too busy to communicate with me, for almost half year i guess?
Suddenly, he walked into our room. I covered my face using the blanket and turned into side position. I wonder, do he really cared about me. He sat on the bed, next to me. He hugged me, which really surprised me, but as a stubborn person I don't react to his action. We are separated by a piece of blanket but at this moment.. I feel that our heart was just so close, like the first time we ever hugged.
I still keep quiet, but he started to speak.. and what's from his mouth made me cried.
"Dear.. I'm leaving by 8pm. This is the meeting that able me to adjust my working schedule for you. Dear, I love you.. I'm sorry that I might left you out for this half year, but I miss you every single time whenever I'm having a break. I know our love is strong, and I promise that I will hold your hand no matter what. You've been thinking about whether I will leave you or not right? I would say no. How can I let you have the opportunity to gasp for the oxygen left on the earth alone? I'm gonna fight for oxygen with you, until the last breath. Wait me home alright?"
He pulled away the blanket on me and kissed on my head. Our eyes connected after so long. He.. this man just answered all my doubt. I can't help hugging him harder than ever.
We hold our hand once again, walk to the most familiar mamak stall with my ordinary housewife look and his unordinary househusband look. I smelled love again.
A loud horn and a painful hit. I looking at him, he smiled.
"Will you marry me?".
"Yes I do".
We hold our hand harder before our last breathe.
"See you later".
" See you later, love".
That's our last conversation before we meet again, Afterlife.
