I never tried and I didn't want to fill my heart with another love

I'll leave a vacuum in my life~

Soraya was crying in front of the Arga family. The girl covered her face with a shaken shoulder. The incident last night made him very hurt, plus until now Arga does not want to pick up the phone or even just reply to the message.

On both sides of the girl, the mother and Julia calmed her down. How could last night have made him so shocked, how could a woman pick up Arga's phone and it was Syahdu.

"I've lost, that woman.hiks.. That woman must have done something to me and Arga.. Huhu.." Soraya.

Across the couch, Alex clenched his hands. She was embarrassed by what Soraya had just told her.

In the middle of the night, Soraya tried to call Arga many times until she was finally picked up by a female voice saying that Arga was sleeping in her apartment. Of course it made Soraya surprised. What is a Shahdu doing in Arga's apartment at midnight saying that her future husband is sleeping? Doesn't that mean they slept together?

"It really hurt my heart. I'm canceling this engagement!" Sutomo in front of the Arga family.

"Papa, no." Soraya pleaded, but she accepted Arga. He liked that guy a long time ago. Being engaged to her was the most beautiful dream she ever had. Of course he doesn't want it to end just like that.

"Can't! It's papa's absolute decision!"

Soraya got off the sofa, kneeling before Sutomo.

"Don't, Pa, don't cancel. Let Arga explain. Maybe this is just a misunderstanding, Pa. Soraya please. Soraya loves Arga.." The girl's tears spilled onto her cheeks, making Sutomo's heart even more painful.

"Wake, Son. You don't need to be like this." The mother persuaded her son to rise, but Soraya refused until Sutomo would retract his words.

"Soray! Don't humble yourself like this! I taught you to be a smart kid!" Sutomo Berang.

"Love a chance, Pa. Let Soraya persuade Arga. So he'll meet papa and apologize."

"I'm sorry. Let me take care of this. I'll drag the boy in front of you, Sutomo. He must apologize and bow before you. He's humiliating this family." Alex said, holding back the anger that had burned his heart.

"Let me pick up Xander." Tukas Julia's. She did not want her hard husband to meet her son who would definitely experience new problems.

"Shut up here." Alex said to his wife.

Margereth sighed, then he got up from his seat. "That's why don't involve children in the business world, if you don't want something like this to happen." He continued, then stepped into the room because he himself could already guess something like this would happen. Arga himself does not want his engagement, especially Syahdu is still on the side of Arga. Of course that's the main reason why Arga ran away from the event last night.

Arga was lying on the ground. She did not stand up and instead cried covering her face with an arm.

Alex stared at something he had never seen before from his son. Arga's shoulders were shaken, clearly she was crying. Then because of what?

"Wake up! You're embarrassing me!" Screeches Alex. But Arga was still crying there.

The middle-aged man restored his hair in annoyance. His son could cry like a child.

After arriving home, Arga got out of the car and walked straight to his room. Julia and Margaret had been waiting for him, but seeing Arga made Julia panic.

"Darling, what's going on??" Julia held onto the shoulders of her son whose face looked like she had just cried and one was on the corner of her lips. It was definitely her husband's doing.

Arga looked at the mother. "Shahdu go, mi." Said slowly.

Julia was concerned about her son. Just because Syahdu left, did he arrive like this? How much did this son love Syahdu?

"Darling, Syahdu is gone because you are, you are fiancee. So.." Julia could not continue her words, when she saw Arga's face looked so moody.

"Relse. Rest.." Margaret from behind Julia.

Arga climbed up with heavy steps. Julia shut her mouth. Never seen Arga like that. He felt guilty for forcing his only child to obey his will. Of course he did not expect, if the hard and firm Arga turned out to be that weak when dealing with Syahdu. Then, does he need to find Syahdu to return?

"We're canceling this engagement." Julia said firmly.

"What's? Can't!" Alex Sentak.

"I don't want to torture my son!"

"He needs someone to heal his heart. One day he'll open his heart!"

"Stop it, Alex! Don't you understand? Look at your son!" Screech Julia, then let out a rough sigh leaving Alex and Margaret behind.

"Sit. I want to talk to you." Margaret stepped onto the sofa to chat a few words to her daughter-in-law.

A week has passed, Arga did not hear any news about Syahdu. He told a lot of people to find the girl. But Syahdu completely disappeared without a trace.

Arga did not intentionally leave his apartment. Who knew the girl had come to pick up the things she had intentionally left there. Syahdu did not bring anything, just a snatch of his dead lover.

Arga sat contemplating in front of the glass door of the balcony, staring at the raindrops that were falling so heavily. The glazed dots gathered together to make one drop of water fall like a tear.

Arga sighed. Not for a second did his mind stop thinking about Syahdu. Every breath he breathed out was because of Syahdu. The highlight of the sharp eyes that Arga emits is to find the existence of Syahdu.

Arga has made a decision. Whatever happens, he will wait for Syahdu. His feelings for the girl were not something that could be wiped out just like that. The first time Arga fell in love, the first time he was disappointed and fell too deep to make it difficult to breathe.

But Syahdu also made the reason survive until now. Syahdu made his life more purposeful. Never had he felt this way and he did not want to erase the beauty of love that was still hidden.

In his heart Arga was sure that someday Syahdu would return. He knew the girl was just confused by his feelings. He just needed time to calm down until he finally came back and steadied his heart. Arga only had to wait, he only had to wait whenever Syahdu came, he would stretch out his arms to welcome his presence.

~ When I have to love and share my heart. It's just with you. But if I have to without you, I will live without making love.
