"Alright, just calm down, leave everything to me!" answer Bastian.
Lunch hour has arrived, Hafizah waiting for the food that has been ordered at the restaurant. Soon the courier who brought the food came. He immediately paid and took the food to Romi's room.
The plan was perfect when Aisyah came. Bastian had already told Aisyah. Aisyah also brought lunch for her and her husband.
In the room of Romi
Romi looked grim, there was no one to blame. He was just sad his love clapped one hand, plus his first love would belong to someone else.
'Why did I become like this?' Romi smiled remembering the sadness that should not be.
Bastian went into Romi's room.
"Rom, do you have a lunch appointment?" bastian's question took Romi by surprise.
"Astagfirullah." said Romi surprised and held his chest.
"Hey...! can't you knock on the door before you enter?" Romi is upset with Bastian's behavior.
"Why...? this is my office, I'm the boss!" Bastian bragged in front of Romi with a joke.
"Ahh..whatever! what are you here for?" ask Romi.
"I want to take you to lunch" replied Bastian Ketus.
"Huh...didn't you always have lunch with your Aisha? and have lunch with me if there's anything." Romi.
"Really! and this time there was something. Aisyah came here with too much food, so we thought we wouldn't be able to spend it without you" Bastian said.
"You think I'm a handyman spending the food?" Romi's upset.
"Yes, you're not talking to me" Bastian replied again.
The door of Romi's room was knocked, Aisyah was already standing in front of the door.
"Can I come in?" ask Aisyah basa stale.
"Eh baby...?" Bastian walked up to welcome Aisyah.
"Dear Assalamualaikum" said Aisyah accompanied by a kiss on the cheek and forehead of Bastian.
"Waalaikumsalam" Bastian replied with a smile then his lips landed briefly on Aisha's lips.
"Damn.." Romi.
"Yes.Just keep showing off the intimacy in front of me, later if I think dirty you are also sinful" said Romi annoyed always treated to intimacy every time Aisyah and Bastian together.
"That's why don't be a real singles, hurry up and find your bride! so that you don't feel jealous of us" Bastian replied.
Aisyah just smiled at their behavior, she then covered Bastian's lips with her finger, a sign telling Bastian to shut up and stop the debate with his best friend.
Aisyah put the food she brought on the table with two long and short sofas.
"Assalamualaikum" said Hafizah.
"Waalaikumsalam" answered everything inside.
Romi was surprised to hear a voice he knew so well, his heart pounding.
'Hafizah...?' Romi's.
"Eh...Fizah have you come? comehere! I deliberately invited you to lunch together because I thought this food was too much for the three of us" said Aisyah who was arranging food on a plate she had taken from the office kitchen.
The food that had been ordered by Hafizah had been brought by Aisyah. They ate together in Romi's room.
Romi looked awkward in front of Hafizah. Finish eating Aisyah and Bastian say goodbye back to his room.
"Rom, I feel bad if I have to show off in front of you again! I and Aisyah better go back to my room. You don't sin here!" bastian said he was teasing Romi again. Then he and Aisyah left Romi and Hafizah together.
Hafizah simply smiled in response to Bastian's joke, and Romi snorted in annoyance.
The mood was silent for a moment.
"Rome..."
"Phot..."
They accidentally called out simultaneously. The atmosphere looked awkward, and Romi relented to hear Hafizah first.
"Rom, I'm sorry! i'm sorry!" said Hafizah and then looked down.
"Why Fizah? what am I supposed to forgive you?" romi asked, looking at Hafizah.
"I'm sorry! that's all I can say Rom, I hurt you too much, me, me..." Hafizah could not continue his sentence.
"Enough Fizah! nothing needs to be forgiven. It's not all your fault! maybe I'm the one who hopes for you too much" said Romi.
"No Rom, it's all my fault! maybe I'm impressed to give you hope, so it's not your fault if you hope!" say Hafizah again.
"I can't be your companion" finally the sentence can come out of Hafizah's lips.
Romi just smiled, he already knew everything.
Hafizah was a little confused, why Romi was not surprised at all, even he smiled.
"Fizah, forget it all! let's just say I never asked you for it. I just want you to be happy, it's better to see you happy with others than to see you suffer and cry in my arms" Romi unknowingly shed tears, his love for Hafizah was already too deep, but what can make him just want to see Hafizah happy.
"Thank you Rom" Hafizah was also flooded with tears, she was moved to see the spaciousness of Romi's heart that wanted to let go, just because he wanted to see her happy.
Romi nodded and smiled.
"Eye.sorry me!" Romi immediately wiped his tears with a tissue. Then take a few more pieces of tissue to give to Hafizah.
"Thank you" said Hafizah receiving a tissue from Romi and immediately swept the tissue to wipe his tears.
"Rom, I beg you, I want us to stay as friendly as ever, I will feel very guilty if you avoid me!" Hafizah.
"All right! you take it easy, I'll stay by your side as a friend!" sahut Romi's.
"Promise...?" ask Hafizah.
"Yes...!" answer Romi.
'I'm sorry Hafizah, I can only promise to be your best friend but I can't promise to always be by your side. I'm going to go away from you to get rid of this feeling, and I don't know when it's going to go away, until that's when I can come back, even if this feeling doesn't go away there's a chance I won't come back' Romi.
They then separated after Hafizah cleaned up the former lunch in Romi's room. Hafizah returned to his room, because it did not feel that the break was almost over.
