A Cold Frozen Hearts

Eps. 36 The return of Nayla

There are secrets that must be hidden. A secret that can be told to others.

.

.

Who would have thought, if two years had passed after that terrible event had happened. The shooting of Nayla, Raysa's wedding, Nayla's departure, and a plane crash. A very heavy year.

A girl was pulling her suitcase, she was wearing glasses and also a woman's hat seemed like she had just come from a trip. Someone was waiting for him. That man is Aufal.

The familiar face. It was Nayla. Nothing had changed from her face, only to look more fresh and cheerful.

Strange, if the girl is Nayla, who is the girl buried.

Nayla pulled out her phone, and called someone.

“I'm back..”

Aufal drove him to a house. The atmosphere of the house was crowded, like there was an event.

“Hey, are you seriously going in? Today, Naomi's wedding reception. You go inside, they might faint,”

“It's okay. Is she inside too?”

“Who? Raysa?”

“Iya,”

“No. She's still in Kam,”

Nayla went into the big house. The casual dress she wears mingles with the pre invited guests. A pair of eyes looked towards Nayla who was coming.

“Nayla..”.

Nayla smiled at the man. Kurnia, a sense of disbelief about the girl who was standing not far away with him.

“For a long time no see, sis,” said Nayla as she walked towards Kurnia then hugged the man.

“What I'm dreaming about,"

“No, you've been to me because I begged your friend to date me,”

“But..”.

“Will I tell you later,”

Kurnia, still hugging her younger brother. Making, two pairs of eyes look towards the eldest child who was in the middle with a girl.

“Can I hide behind you brother, take me to Dad and mom,”

The man, just followed what Nayla said. The man still could not believe what was going on. There were a lot of questions that the man wanted to ask her. Maybe, not just the guy, but everyone. More precisely, who was the girl in the tomb.

Nayla came out from behind Kurnia's body, making those who knew her instantly shocked. Naomi almost fainted to see Nayla.

How not frenzied, two years in the know have died now standing with a smile.

“Nay... Nay's... Nayla..”.

The middle-aged woman was surprised to see the figure of the girl who was present before her.

“This is really you?”

Nayla just kept quiet, smiling and nodding as the woman approached and felt her face.

“Mama is no longer dreaming right?”

Nayla just nodded. Dare not to comment or answer.

“Looks like I came at an inopportune time,”

“Hem, already know not exactly why still ask again,” said Kurnia, while stroking Nayla's hair. “They must be surprised

“I'm actually tired, can we talk later?”

Kurnia took her sister to her room, as did her parents. They sat near the sleeping girl, occasionally squeezing her cheeks, still not believing what they were seeing. They slept in the room until morning.

No one took a bite of the food on the table, they were still looking at Nayla.

A man sitting next to Naomi still feels foreign to Nayla. She still can't believe it, if the girl cancels her wedding.

Naomi introduces her husband to Nayla, because she feels that Nayla wants to know the man next to her.

“I didn't get on the plane that day. I went to the Border at the time. I lost my necklace at the airport, I know if anyone finds it and wears it overseas. Aufal knows, and I told her not to tell you guys,”

“Why don't you..”

“I just got healthy, the rest of the bullets that could not be taken at that time..”.

Everyone was silent when Nayla said that.

“So..”.

“I was in a coma for 15 months. That's why I can't even tell you. Aufalpun, there busy completing his studies while taking care of me,”

“Raysa..”.

Naomi brings up Raysa, leaving Nayla stunned for a moment.

“Aufal has also told me,”

“She likes you..”.

Nayla just fell silent as if she knew what had really happened to the man.

“What if you help Dad in the company?”

“Em. Can I..”

“Yes already, you too have just been healthy. What are you gonna do?”

The man who was now sitting near Naomi, noticed Nayla. It was as if Nayla's face was so familiar.

“What do you mean Aufal from SMA ..”

“Iya. Why do you know?”

“Means you're the girl he was always with at High School?”

“Yes, do you know me?”

“Iya. Who does not know you, the girl who is always talked about by gossipy children. In fact, even in the library they gossip,”

Nayla could only laugh hearing that. Who could have thought, if his current brother-in-law was someone who had been with him in school long ago. Even know him.

“I didn't expect, the rumored child is now my sister-in-law,”

“I just remembered. You're the kid who always carries books everywhere?” Nayla immediately remembered a child who always wore glasses and carried books.

Nayla ate her food voraciously. The first meal, after a long time he did not taste the food.

“I'm going to the cemetery, and will probably go see him at the border,” Nayla said in a soft tone.

“Mama will restore your identity first. Earlier, my mother had tidied up the room and prepared your needs. You're gonna stay here, right with us? Your brother, will leave in three days there you can come with him,”

“I got married in America with Aufal,” Nayla said stammeringly.

Everyone who heard was shocked including Naomi. The atmosphere became quiet at that moment. They know, if the girl likes someone else. They did not expect, if the girl came home with the status of being married.

“For all my treatment to go smoothly, he must be my guardian. So she registered our marriage together,”

“You all right?”

“We promise divorce after returning home kok,”

“What are you worried about?”

It was as if the worry was clearly etched on his face. If he is afraid, if he explains to that person about everything that happened.

Aufal did promise to divorce her upon returning to Indonesia, the scariest thing if the man would renege on his promise again... The man who is in his heart will not accept his explanation.

A funeral was clearly visible in front of his eyes. A flower that is still fresh is seen, maybe the flower is given by the fans.

His eyes were fixed on a necklace that was in the tombstone. A necklace that was familiar to him, the necklace was given by Raysa to him even worn directly by the man.

“I don't know what to say to you, should I thank you or be sad. You replaced me here,” said Nayla muttering in the tomb. “I can only pray for you, may you calm down and get a place by His side,”

“Come, we have to leave,” Kurnia told Nayla.

Nayla has not announced that she has returned publicly. Because he wanted to enjoy his rest first. But he has informed those close to him. Like editors Lee and Laura. As expected, they were all shocked. Moreover, Laura who cried sobbing when she found out that her best friend was still alive.

The air in that place was still very fresh to breathe seemed to be very suitable for the condition of his body in recovery.

Nayla returned to that place, it felt like nothing had changed from a place where so many memories were with Raysa.

It was her and she gave birth until 2 pm, Raysa was not there at that time. Make her, go to the place where she once went along with the man.

Some people who recognized her screamed hysterically at the sight of the girl. Everyone was surprised by his presence.

The heavy backpack was on his back. He stepped foot into the forest, he went to the top.

Raysa had just arrived from the city, everyone was running towards her to relay the news about the girl they saw. Raysa was a bit surprised when she heard that and then looked at her GPS, and opened her message. All the messages he sent were read.

Raysa rushes into the forest looking for Nayla. When he fell, he did not care about it, continued to run towards the red dot on his GPS.

From a distance it was clear in his eyes that a bonfire was burning at the top of the mountain. His footsteps accelerated, so it did not take long for him to the top of the mountain.

“Be.... be... Is this really you?” raysa asked hurriedly, her breathing indicating she had run over to meet the girl.
