A Cold Frozen Hearts

Eps. 6 Sunrise at Border

“Because of that... Be my girlfriend..” Nayla told Rasya.

The waves on the beach are chasing each other. The atmosphere looked so awkward as Nayla said that ridiculous thing.

How could he say that, to a man of the rank of Captain.

“I said what the hell, I shouldn't..” said Nayla. “Eeemmm... Until I finish writing,” said Nayla stammered.

Rasha laughing.

Nayla covered her face in embarrassment at what she said.

“So many writers write romantic stories, they find more ideas. But you're a unique writer,” Rasya said laughing.

Nayla just puffed her cheeks.

“I have a secret,” said Raysa. “That secret is, I'm allergic to women,” Raysa told Nayla.

“But you're not allergic to me,” said Nayla.

“Iya, that's weird. I'm not allergic to you, I'm not even afraid of you,” Raysa said. “At first I wanted to ask for help so you could help me cure my illness,” Raysa said. “Only you and one of my friends know this,” said Raysa again.

“OK. We are equally profitable,” said Nayla. “I helped you cure a disease, I helped you write a novel. There's nothing to lose. We both benefit,” said Nayla again.

“Enough 3months only,” Rasya said. “And no one can fall in love,” says Raysa.

“Hhmm... Are we filming a drama Full House? Making a contract should not fall in love,” Nayla said as she frowned.

“There's a girl I..”

“Yes I know, therefore you want to cure your illness,” said Nayla cut Raysa's words. “I feel envious of the girl, someone fighting for a person who is very in her tribe,” Nayla said.

“Take it easy. I am not easily in love. I even nicknamed the ice girl on campus,” Nayla said again with a smile on Rasya.

“Why can't you write a romantic novel?” ask Raysa.

“Eeemm... I need a new story to close the previous story,” replied Nayla.

“Means?”

“I got the bottom of the feeling while writing a romantic story. I would cry, or stop writing in the middle of the script. Different from thiller, crime, investigation. I'm like a crazy person like I actually got on the script. It feels easier for me than to write a romantic story,” Nayla explained to Raysa.

“Oh so yes,” says Raysa .

“When are you going to town? I want to buy a phone so I can call my friend,”

“Besok morning. I'm scheduled to buy kitchen supplies, so I have to go. You can come if you want,”

“OK. I'm coming,” said Nayla with a smile.

Time shows at 04.15am WIT.

“Nayla...” call Raysa when viewing Nayla. “Where do you go early in the morning like this?” ask Raysa.

“Shotting sunrise,” replied Nayla showing the camera that will be used to take pictures.

“Come aboard!” raysa said opening the car door.

“Where are you?”

“You said you want to go to the city buy Hp,”

“Oh yes. I forgot!” nayla said as she got into the car.

The cold weather is so felt, because it is surrounded by forests.

“Travel to city about 1h more. The shops are open around 8-9 am,” Raysa said explaining the circumstances.

“Inhaling this fresh air should not be wasted,” Nayla said.

Along the way no one dared to start the conversation made Nayla fall asleep.

“We have arrived,” said Raysa. “She fell asleep apparently,” Raysa said seeing Nayla who was asleep. “Maybe she..”.

“After arrival?” nayla suddenly woke up. “Eee..” Nayla was surprised to see around.

“You said you wanted to take a picture of sunrise, so I brought you here,” Raysa said.

“Ooohh. Though I can take pictures sometime,”

“This is in line with what we are aiming for, so all of you,” Raysa said.

Nayla looked towards the sun that was about to reveal itself. Nayla chose not to photograph the moment.

“For a long time, did not enjoy a moment like this,” said Nayla membatin.

Nayla thought of what happened a few years ago.

“Nay, let's get up. Said he wanted to see the sunrise,” a voice sounded.

A snapshot from Nayla's camera is heard. Raysa is capturing the moment.

The traditional market is so crowded. Nayla was amazed by the market atmosphere.

“Tuutts.... Tuuuttt...”.

Nayla called.

“Sorry, I arrived yesterday. In Kam there is no internet network. I have to go to a new city to call,”

“Nayla. Please help me bring this,” Raysa calls Nayla.

“Who is that? You're dating again?”

“Ya dating, by going to the market,” Nayla said. “Let me call again, I have to help her carry groceries,” Nayla said while turning off her phone.

“Have finished calling?” ask Raysa.

“Have been,”

Kkrp...

Nayla's stomach was heard.

“Ah. I'm used to suggestions,” said Nayla.

“Let's eat first,” said Raysa who heard the sound of hunger from Nayla's stomach.

Nayla saw the food being served to them, immediately snatching the food.

“Looks like you're really hungry,” Raysa said with a laugh.

“Tidaak kok,” said Nayla while chewing her food. “Only this is delicious,” said Nayla.

“Ah so yes,”

“Aibi... I ordered 60 packs yes, make it take home,” said Nayla.

“They should also eat like our food,” Nayla told Raysa.

“Are you like this?”

“No! During this 3thn,” said Nayla.

“What happens until you talk like that?” ask Raysa.

“I have to update Hiatus,” said Nayla diverted the conversation.

Raysa and Nayla have finished eating.

“This is his order,”

“Oh wait for me bay..” Nayla checked her wallet. Then look at Raysa. “I forgot my wallet,” Nayla told Raysa.

Tuk...

Raysa flicked Nayla's forehead.

“Aauww..”.

“Even before the message tuh check first there is money or no money,” said Raysa mocked.

“I have money, wallet misses,” Nayla said. “Uang was just enough to buy the phone earlier,” said Nayla defended herself.

Nayla puffed her cheeks. It felt like the man she was with was so annoying.

“I'll change,” said Nayla with annoyance.

“Why did you break up with Aufal?” ask Raysa suddenly.

“Can I come back next week? I have to vedio call with my editor,” said Nayla diverting the conversation.

Raysa who finds out that the girl next to him does not want to discuss the past.

“Not good to discuss,” said Nayla while looking at Raysa.

“OK. Maybe I was too curious about you,” Raysa said while focusing on driving.

The atmosphere became awkward all the way home.

***

The atmosphere is so crowded, visible from a distance.

Everyone looked towards Nayla along with the Captain of the army with a cynical look.

Including Aufal looking towards Nayla. Nayla is someone special to her. In fact, despite her married status, she still loves Nayla. Anger, and jealousy, was now stirring in his heart.

The look on a man's face was on Nayla. He was Raysa's best friend. Kurniawan.

“Everything, I brought food from shopping,” Nayla said as she got off the car.

Nayla felt that she was being stared at by so many people. He smiled wryly in fear of being interrogated.

“Ah! Not like you guys think, I went to buy a phone so I came along,” Nayla said. “Tokonya was open for so long, so we had to wait until the store was open,” Nayla said trying to explain what really happened.

The woman who looked at Nayla with a cynical look was somewhat relieved to hear that.

“She's my girlfriend, ” Raysa said as she got out of the car and brought some groceries.

The deg!
