Neha rejected Rezi's body after a long time hugging her. Neha walked away from Rezi by herself at the end of the wooden bridge.


Rezi only smiled, this time he did not chase and did not follow Neha anymore.


Not because of giving up, because now Rezi understood. Love can wait, for as long as it is.


Rezi turned his body and looked at the twilight sky. He put his hands in his pants pocket and breathed in the twilight air by closing his eyes.


Slowly Rezi sat down, he laid his body on the bridge. Enjoy the twilight turn in peace and quiet.


A feeling of comfort that he had never felt before. He could only get it by Neha's side.


Neha did not want to be near him. But just like this is good enough to start things over.


***


After cleaning up the house, Neha gets ready to go to Ruby's store.


Neha opened her door, her eyes round as she saw a large bouquet of flowers in front of her door.


Neha took the bouquet and looked around, but there was no one there.


Neha kissed the hundreds of flower stalks, her lips smiling as she looked at the several colors of roses inside the large bouquet.


Neha took the bouquet in and locked the door. Continuing her activities to care for and supply flowers to Ruby stores.


Not just that day, until the next week. Neha kept getting her big bouquet of flowers every time she opened her door.


As he was used to, Neha now just missed the bouquet. Not accepting it and also throwing it away, he just left it just like that.


Rezi smiled and shook his head, somehow he could melt Neha's heart.


Neha was soft, but also very hard. If the grip is too strong it will break, if the grip is too soft it will disappear.


Rezi turned his brain again, looking for other ways to seize Neha's heart and feelings.


Rezi sat pensively at the end of the lotus pond bridge he made. Enjoying the sun of twilight itself, despite love. But why did he also feel tired while chasing hopelessly like this.


Tired of his heart and mind. He was almost madly made by that noiseless woman.


The sound of a pair of boot heels was heard in Rezi's ear. He knew very well, who was currently approaching him.


Neha sat right next to Rezi, looked at Rezi for a moment and gave her phone to Rezi.


(Actually what makes you come back here).


Rezi fell silent and only sighed. He did not answer and did not turn his gaze toward Neha.


Neha re-typed her phone screen and gave Rezi her hand.


(I asked why you didn't answer. Rezi, what are you waiting for here?).


Rezi only glanced at Neha at a glance, then he looked back at the twilight sky this afternoon.


After Rezi read the message, he fell silent again. Neha got up and walked slowly, leaving Rezi with the rhythm of the heels she used.


"You" said Rezi, stopping Neha's footsteps.


Neha turned her face away, looking at Rezi who was still sitting in the sky.


"All of your questions have only one answer, which is you," Rezi said.


"You made me come back, you're the one I'm looking for, you're the one I'm always waiting for. You and only you, in my heart and in my brain, are now only you, Neha."


Rezi sighed and raised both his legs which he had dipped into the pool. Put both hands on his knees.


"Western virus, you are a single virus that does not attack, does not bother, but cannot also be blocked and eliminated. You're like a single virus that stands alone, but it's very haunting. It cannot be possessed, it cannot be conquered, but it cannot be made an enemy."


Neha was silent, and she did not go away nor come near. He only listened to what Rezi wanted to say.


"I won't bother you, Neha. You don't care enough about me, I'm just here to find peace. Looking for peace, because here, I feel that the real me exists."


Neha lowered her gaze and walked over. He gave his phone to Rezi.


(You've helped me several times, say one wish, I'll keep it to repay your bud).


Rezi smiled and shook his head.


"I ask nothing of you, I help you not because I ask for your reward or recompense, Neha. If all this time you thought I was just playing you, just think of it like that. Look at me as you please, look at me as badly as you want. I'm not going to defend or try to explain, that's your right."


Rezi got up and put his shoes back on. He looked at Neha's face with a gentle smile.


"But if I love you, it's my right. My heart is mine, my love is my right. You can forbid me not to meet you, but you can't forbid me from falling in love with you" Rezi said softly.


"If you don't love me, that's your right. But don't ban my heart, it doesn't matter you hate me, it doesn't matter you reject me. Because for me, when I'm in love with you, that's enough of a reason to keep chasing you."


Rezi smiled and walked away from Neha, put on her sunglasses and combed her hair back.


While Neha just looked at the back of Rezi's body that kept away from him.


He still did not know what to do, he still felt unworthy to receive all this love.


He thought, if Rezi did not get a reply to his feelings he would give up. But why Rezi even more advanced and make his heart more in love.


Neha looked at the shadow of Rezi who kept walking away from her. There is a sense of pleasure when hearing Rezi's words, but there is also a sense of guilt for continuing to lie to yourself.


'Rezi, I'm sorry. Hope you understand, I just don't want you to suffer when you're with me. Believe me, Rezi, killing this feeling will hurt even more when I, should keep staring at you here,'


Neha sighed, changing to the one sitting at the end of the bridge of the pond.


Perhaps, if he tried a little harder, Rezi would give up on his feelings. If he refuses even more painfully, maybe Rezi will leave him.


Neha closed her eyes and breathed cold air at the end of the twilight. This situation confused him.


'I'm sorry Rezi, but I'm going to hurt you deeper than this. I want you to understand, that being with me, will only drag you into an abyss you might not have imagined before,'
