AMONG HIM

AMONG HIM
The Day You Went Away



Ricchi's eyes were sharp, his heart was sliced with pain looking at the birthday gift car for Dee parked neatly in the Liam carport, the luxury car covered by a black cover.


He and Liam continued to try to contact Dee's number but remained with the same response, inactive.


Ricchi gathered his memories of exactly when Dee was acting weird__well 2 weeks ago. Her boyfriend always rejects video and voice calls for a variety of reasons. Ricchi also had to be content to send a message full of love with his lover, last night Dee was still saying good night with dozens of icons kisses sent by the girl who was out of nowhere now.


"We go to his office," murmured Liam softly, the narrowed eyeball without the fold was watery glancing towards Ricchi.


With a faint heart Ricchi nodded his head, the two of them without going into the house back up to Alphard Ricchi's car.


"Did you guys fight?" Liam glanced at the fierce Ricchi. He could not accept that the man beside him had hurt Dee so much that his little girl had disappeared like this.


"You can beat me unconscious


Bang, if I had a fight with Dee. Look at our message last night," Ricchi pointed his phone in front of Liam's face, which made the man grimly cover up his jealousy after reading the love story.


Liam turned his face towards the outside of the car window, his heart breaking. He should have caught Dee's gaze on their video call. The tightness in his throat made him hold back the tears that were about to come out in the eye patch. Her little girl was crying at that moment, an unmitigated sad cry. Thought Liam, Dee just longed and was moved by her birthday.


He should be more sensitive, he said with a reddening heart.


...


In a time when they needed the speed of time to get to Dee's office, there was also a massive demonstration that paralyzed the streets of the capital. The cars could not move at all, in the heat of the sun and a long distance.


"In this moment I want to live in the future, where cars can fly," Liam grumbled as if he was overheating while the car's coolant was running full.


Ricchi chose to be pensive, he was not the type of person who likes to grumble like Liam. He must be more patient let alone face this problem, common sense must still work.


Dee's shadow as they combined love, just flashed. Hot romance, no commitment after that.


The deg!


His chest was as if it had been smashed by tens of tons of iron! Did Dee turn herself in as a farewell sign? Nah!


"No!!" This time Ricchi yelled in frustration, a loud shout startling Liam and Mike. Liam's eyeballs were rounded in astonishment, Ricchi now gripped his hair violently, the actor's breath was stung.


"No!" Ricchi muttered again this time softly followed by a clear liquid falling on the corner of his eye patch.


Though he had planned after this long filming would invite Dee to meet with his extended family. Ricchi wants to propose to his lover, his feelings are very big and sincere to the girl.


For the first time in Ricchi's life, so eager to get married, had a small family with a girl who had the same soul as him. Ricchi's really healed, Liam too.


...


The black Alphard stopped in front of Dee's office, again they set foot in the same place but with a different feeling. Ricchi well Liam did not care about the eyes of the people in Dee's office who were rushing home from work.


Liam who walked in front of the five-story glass-walled building, he still remembered the name of the accountant's customer service office, Lilis who was so cute. Liam will ask the woman.


Before reaching the lobby, they passed 4 men who were talking but the men stopped their steps as soon as they saw Liam and Ricchi.


"Search Dee?" tanya Wahyu immediately walked closer to the front making Liam and Ricchi stop. The two celebrities nodded with their anxious faces.


"Include me Wahyu, Dee's roommate" said Wahyu reached out his hand which was welcomed by the two men who tried to attract his smile even though it was very thin.


Wahyu smiled, walking to the edge, away from Team Rose and several other office employees who were walking away from the office building.


"Dee didn't tell you? No farewell?" Revelation stared alternately at the handsome men in front of her. Even up close the faces of the two men were blameless, it was fortunate that Dee could see the faces of Ricchi and Liam at any moment.


Why do I adore these two men, so impressed by faggotness, the Revelation in my heart reads.


"Please, Dee where? We just finished filming in Sumatra for 6 weeks and just landed, I was next door to Dee. We got Dee's house with a contracted banner. His phone number was off, too" Liam grimaced after saying his words, his eyes round in agitation.


"Dee resigned, exactly two weeks ago" Ricchi gasped in shock at the revelation. The last thing he wanted to hear, that was exactly what happened.


"Dee received a scholarship to study abroad, we do not know which country. However, what is clear is that he continues his studies" explained Wahyu.


Ricchi clutched Liam's shoulder hard, his face turned towards the streets despite his inner eyes to the figure of his lover who went nowhere.


In another corner a smiling man slanted upward looking at the distraught Ricchi and Liam, who else if not Angga Karunasankara.


And I was successful, separating Dee from the two men, Angga sat in his head while casually stepping into his luxury car.


...


Ricchi's limp footsteps followed Liam into his stately home, both glued to a 20x20cm white box on a sofa table.


"Open Me" with a capital letter on top of the box.


Liam opened the box after the two sat on a very comfortable brown sofa.


A car key with a spiderman hanger that Liam suspects is the car key in front of the parked in the carpot. Two white letters, each written by the recipient. Liam dropped a letter with the words "Sister Ricchi" on the man next to him and headed to the bar table with a letter to him.


Dear Brother Liam..


When you read this letter, surely your sister is already in the country thousands of kilometers away from Indonesia. Sorry, brother, I went like this. I can't look at my sister and say goodbye. Really cowardly, right? Not Dawn whom you know.


If you ask me why I am doing this... Yeah, because I've actually been waiting for a scholarship to study abroad. And this opportunity came suddenly, I had to take it. Even if I have to leave you two.


Heavy brother, decide this path. I didn't tell my sister because I wanted to let go of everything, including Brother Ricchi and Brother Liam. I want to live for myself, find my own way, try my luck in people's countries. Impressed arrogant but really this is my desire since long ago. Challenging myself with my highest ego.


Please, forgive me brother. Wherever I am I will remember you brother, and I have always loved Brother Liam.


Ps. If there is a well in the field, let's take pictures. Let someone else take a shower.


Oh well, please take care of Brother Ricchi.


Dawns


While on the sofa, Ricchi stared worriedly at his lover's writing on the cover of the letter. Repeatedly tried to dare to read the letter from Dee. He took a deep breath before finally opening the letter with trembling fingers.


Dear Brother Ricchi..


Sis. I love you so much, I have never felt this kind of love before to a man in such a short time. Is you a Ricchi Maheswara makes me fall into the vortex of love. Your tenderness, your attention, your soul is the same as mine, your very warm embrace protects, your smile colors my day, your laughter...


oh God how do I live without all that now ?


Sick, leaving you. I was selfish, thinking only of myself, my own future without your presence. Bad well brother, evil Dee.


I'm not going to apologize, knowing I made the biggest mistake that was unforgivable. Brother Ricchi can hate Dee all the ages.


I love my sister, the love I said was so big that Dee couldn't fight for it.


I let you go, Ricchi.


It's okay if you are sad today, but promise that tomorrow to fly, fly like a butterfly, stop at the most beautiful flower in your eyes.


Move forward, don't go back in time. Take the best experience, be a strong human being. I believe Brother Ricchi can because brother is the greatest man of my life.


Spirit of brother !.. From here I cheer you.


Dee


A long heart-wrenching cry from Ricchi's mouth shortly after reading her lover's letter, the woman who broke her heart to pieces.


"Dee..Where do you help?" Ricchi's shout again punched his chest which felt a pain from within.

...


Moscow, Russia..


3 Years later, though,


A long-back black haired girl was sitting sweetly in her work chair. His clasped hands played his advanced phone, a knotty smile adorning his face as he read the message on the 6 inch flat screen in hand.


"My lovely Dee, will finally return to Indonesia. I'll pick you up at the airport, honey"


Dee wrote a message


I had to attend a very meritorious man's wedding in my life. No need to pick me up, because I'm going to Bandung first. I miss mama's cooking. See you, always love you.
