ADVENTURES OF LOVE
Chapter 25 Best friends
I wanted to cry, but the tears had long since dried up. Only the sky was wet this early.
I've made all possibilities for us, twisted one by one. However, there is no partisanship. Wisdom is always born of pain. May we be wise when we understand when it is time to end the wait.

"Is there a problem, Ra?" ask Sisil. Since the morning Sisil saw Ara who often daydreamed, he was sure there must be a problem that might be quite strange for Ara, he was sure, because Sisil understands that the problems of spare change will not make Ara mope like today.
"If you want to tell me, just tell me your problem Ra. We are not only friends but also brothers. Maybe I can't help you out of that trouble but I'll listen to all the restlessness in your heart for a little more relief" said Sisil to Ara who was stirring drinks since then but never drunk.
"Gue, I'm afraid of Sil. I'm afraid my decision today is in addition to hurting my own heart, but it will make my father and mother sad" replied Ara who still bowed her head towards her glass of drink.
Sisil just listened, did not mean to ask, interject or pick Ara to immediately tell a story. Sisil wanted to give Ara time so that she could calm her heart first. Ara only sighed deeply, then she slowly looked towards her best friend.
"The former lover of Mas Arslan, he will come back here Sil, and Arslan yesterday did not return to our apartment" said Ara later.
Now Sisil understands what is at the root of this friend's problem. For some people this problem may look ordinary, because only the ex and his best friend are legitimate wives, but the problem will be strange if the husband doubts his own feelings, inner turmoil is a problem that requires patience, wisdom, and determination to get through it.
"Have you confirmed Arslan's unremitting lack of respect for his ex, Ra? ask Sisil.
"It has. Arslan spoke last night Sil. She said she still misses her ex-boyfriend, but she also said she wasn't ready to lose me. I took the decision to keep my distance from her, I asked her to make sure of her feelings first, who she wanted to fight for as her future." Ara replied as she stared at Sisil's sad eyes.
"Ra, why did you choose to keep your distance? why not get closer to Arslan, isn't that the greater your chances of defending the marriage?" asked Sisil who was curious about the reason for his best friend's decision.
"Gue's been doing that since the beginning of Sil's marriage. Maybe I'll be very happy to be able to maintain this marriage, but Mas Arslan he will be very hurt all his life will live with a woman he does not love, maybe my guess can also be wrong, he said, I am not really happy to be able to maintain a marriage that has no love from my husband, or worse when Mas Arslan pretends to accept, the happiness I feel is just a falsehood, he said, wasn't I the one who was hurt the most by this marriage?" answered Ara who was holding back the tightness in her heart.
"Gue asked your decision not because I blame the decision you take, I know you are strong and wise to make a decision. Whatever you will face in the future, remember here there is still me. I want my only friend back, yes.in return to be the Ara I know, who always assume every incident is a surprise to complete the happiness at the end of the day, I want to see Ara who says she will make her husband wash up on her, Ara who is not afraid of anything. Lo remember when we were in High School and I was in an accident, at that time I needed a blood donor right then and there, while the stock in the hospital was empty, I couldn't donate blood at that time, brother Nathan is abroad and the surprising thing is that Ara my little friend who is very afraid of needles, even to the point of adulthood suddenly volunteered to be a blood donor, he said, you do not talk to me if you saved me, but I guess I told the story while holding haru when you saw you fight all your fears at that time, yes even after the donor finished you fainted and made a cry I cry hysterically afraid of why-why, but like that Ayyara Wisam I know, I know, do not be afraid for something that you will not necessarily face if you will eventually face it too, be strong and face it, because there will always be someone who supports you." sisil answered trying to strengthen his friend.
Ara who heard a long speech from Sisil finally realized, he realized he had forgotten how to live so far, fear of reality that did not necessarily happen had made it difficult to think. After getting the lecture, the twinkle in Ara's eyes that had dimmed now shone, he was sure to continue his plan, if indeed matchmaking as great as any storm hit they would survive and pass it. Ara then hugged the friend tightly and muttered her thanks softly, but full of sincerity heard by Sisil, Sisil was relieved his friend was ready to fight back.
"Remember Ra, no matter what happens don't be afraid, no matter what the father or mother, they may be sad or disappointed when they know the wedding of their beloved daughter is ruined, he said, but they will be much more sad when they know that the daughter they raised full of love for their entire life was not happy." said Sisil full of sincere smiles.
"Yeah, you're right Sil. Thank you, I had my doubts about myself" said Ara
"There is no need for thanks between us, let's eat, my head feels like it will break because it has to think hard to look wise and impact on my empty stomach, he said, because my worms come to think hard." answered Sisil casually who began to put a lot of food into his mouth, which invited laughter Ara.
"Oiya Sil, so all this time you know I've been donating blood to you?" ask Ara
"Of course, nyokap same my father is very dear lo, what else nyokap me, sometimes I do suspect what exactly lo is their biological child, we are confused so" replied Sisil casually
It makes Ara laugh and snap the head of her best friend, she could have thought so.
plack up!
"Ogeb's sick! you make my brain scatter everywhere!" sisil was upset
Not long after, the laughter of the two of them finally broke, complementing the beauty between them.
Ara realized, the life she had been fighting for must be able to maintain, because the life that was not fought for, she could never win.
