Angel In Poetry
He Didn't let you go
An old song by Richard Marx was heard in the car. Afkar positioned his body facing Alya and clasped his hands.
...Oceans apart day...
...And I slowly go insane...
...I hear your voice on the line...
...But it doesn't stop the pain...
...If I see you next to never...
...How can we say forever...
...Wherever you go...
...Whatever you do...
...I will be right here waiting for you...
...Whatever it takes...
...How my heart breaks...
...I will be right here waiting for you...
...I look for grants, all the times...
...That I thought would last onehow...
...I hear the daughter, I taste the tears...
...But I can't get near you now...
...Oh, can't you see it baby...
...You've got me going crazy...
...Wherever you go...
...Whatever you do...
...I will be right here waiting for you...
...Whatever it takes...
...How my heart breaks...
...I will be right here waiting for you...
...I wonder how we can survive...
...This romance...
...But in the end if I'm with you...
...I'll take the chance...
...Oh, can't you see it baby...
...You've got me going crazy...
...Wherever you go...
...Whatever you do...
...I will be right here waiting for you...
...Whatever it takes...
...How my heart breaks...
...I will be right here waiting for you...
...Waiting for you...
" Dear, don't make me feel guilty like this'
" Alya doesn't blame ka Afkar"
" It's bad, I feel blamed"
" Ka, ka Afkar's attitude to Aprill was too excessive for the care of a brother to his sister. Which woman doesn't expect more when getting such comfortable treatment from older sister"
" I just treat him fairly".
" It's not natural at all, why do you give your chest when she cries?"
" I want to make it stop, baby know I'm at least as strong as seeing a woman crying in front of me, right?".
" There's no need to hug her either"
" How to go?"
" Just give words that are soothing, you have thousands of words to make a woman melt, like you often make Alya believe even though it might be a lie"
Afkar smiled
" It's just for honey, I've lied, baby what I've done"
" The words are only for Alya, a hug for another woman? weirdo"
" Dear, that's out of my mind, really I don't know my attitude that can make him think differently with me, I just want to give you protection"
" Then about eating? why is it so big to be fed?"
" You don't know, if he eats in the old room, when I have to wait for hours to wait for him to finish his dinner?"
" Why wait?"
" I have to make sure before I go to bed all the activities are done"
" That includes responsibility too?"
Afkar was silent, shouldn't be, but why has it been like yes.
" I don't know, but once all their activities are over, I feel like I can sleep well".
" And what was his death before going to bed when Afkar stroked his hair, whispered sweet things, wanting to put his brother's soul into his dream? been paying attention all night to come in too? so do you wake up, stroke her hair for what? let's just remember brother all day?"
Afkar just shut up, Alya's really mad, she's jealous? I did act beyond reasonableness huh?
" Ka, if with Mr. Wijaya it is very reasonable, brother prepares his food needs, medicine and vitamins, brother sekagian prepare will go to dawn prayer in the mosque, the mosque, it was indeed the duty of his brother to pay for his services. But Aprill was beyond your fairness, first she was a girl, and whose sister? her real brother? or his servants? that could only be ka. Big brother is just a young, capable, smart, nice body, and,, a little handsome".
Afkar pulled the corner of his lips, my dear, it's hard for you to praise me.
" What's smiling?"
" No, just continue the ranting"
" Which woman is treated so of an Afkar and does not fall in love? nothing, including Alya and Aprill"
Afkar listened to all of Alya's rants that were partly true in his opinion, but partly exaggerated.
" Nobody warned me before, I didn't know it would"
" And another ka"
Afkar nodded in style like a student who snatched a cheat on a replay then listened to the teacher's advice to no longer repeat it, still faithfully waiting for the scolding let alone that would come out of his lover's lips, really like nagging, if later married is every day I will get this atmosphere? I can get my head dizzy before I go to the office for breakfast like this.
" Why should Aprill drink coffee from Afkar's cup? why don't you ask her to make her aunts?"
" Dear, baby, she's sleeping in the middle of the night, I know after I get home at ten in the night from her house she's not sleeping, she's pretending, I see her online until twelve, I know, sometimes I chat to ask him to sleep, and then he stops. If he drinks coffee, he's getting sleepless, I'm the one who bothered to wake him up for prayers and lectures"
" Why is it a sister's business again he wants to wake up at what time, indeed before ka Afkar came he was late for college?"
" Did he have to pray, baby? before I came, he admitted to rarely praying at dawn"
" Okee, then let alone a reason to drink coffee from a kaka glass?"
" If he likes to drink coffee like you, who would take him to a coffee shop? I will not let him be with his friends, Mr Wijaya will worry if it happens, then with me? where I had time to accompany him, I already had a lot of business, there was no way it was, so it was better that he did not know that drinking coffee in the cafe was very pleasant, he said, enough you're the only woman I'll be with for that".
" Hearing sister's answer, it's like you're all right, but unfortunately it's all wrong?"
Afkar.
" I don't understand what you mean"
" The point is ka, Aprill was in love with ka Afkar because of the excessive attention of kaka"
" oohs".
" Oh what?"
" I just found out now, yeah. I've introduced you to her, you're my lover and we're getting married, why are you so busy with this?"
" He's Aprill ka, not Cindi"
" Why take Cindi again, I don't want to take her, baby know not, now our car has started to weigh a lot of passengers, hehehe"
" Alya is not kidding, I mean Alya yesterday ka Afkar can easily decide Cindi because sister has no burden, no services to be paid"
" Pay services? to Mr Wijaya?'
" Yes"
" He's a sincere Alya"
" Through Aprill ka, the service must be paid for by Aprill's request".
Afkar removed his hand from Alya's hand and leaned back on the chair with his head slightly lowered.
" You mean I have to accept all of Aprill's requests?"
" I don't know, but ka Afkar can't refuse to pay for services to Pak Wijaya"
" Which Aprill request?"
" To not leave him, let alone for an Alya he just met, a new person who would take the ka Afkar from his side"
" Don't go too far thinking so dear, it's not as complicated as you think"
" Maybe it will be more complicated ka, Alya trust ka Afkar heart only for Alya, really Alya believe it, but Alya forget that out there many hearts are waiting for ka Afkar to love"
" Dear, I never wanted anything else but you, just you"
Tiitts,,
Telephone call
" Yes bang Jali"
" Non Aprill rampaging, where's the jaunt?"
" Ulun is still in the hospital parking lot, ulun directly entered"
Afkar looked at Alya.
" April's on a rampage, baby wait here or come in?"
" Alya just wait here ka".
Afkar peed Alya's forehead
" Wait for me not to go anywhere"
Afkar got out of the car and ran into the hospital. Alya looked at him from inside the car with a disappointed heart. Ka Afkarku is not the old one anymore. Not someone who begs me to love, someone who closes his heart to love another woman, but forgets to close the other door for another heart to enter, and now that he's not a weak-looking Afkar anymore, he has everything, including other hearts that have more power than I rely on love, first love.
I'm afraid of losing you, and so is Aprill.
It's been half an hour, Ka Afkar still hasn't contacted me, raging what Aprill is in there so Ka Afkar hasn't been able to get out or just tell me.
Alya dodged her phone and sent a message in the WhatsApp group
" I'm sorry to interrupt, is anyone not busy?"
Five minutes later
" What's up, Al? I'm just relaxing in the showroom"
" I want to confide"
" See, I read it"
" I just wanted to go in again, it was lunch and prayer"
" Ron, Arga, I'm sad again"
" Afkar again?"
" Yes, he's proposed to me, we'd like to buy a wedding ring, but there's still a problem"
" Otherwise?"
" His master's daughter loves ka Afkar"
" The Afkar chose you, didn't it?"
" Yes, but it will not be easy for us to continue this Ga, ka Afkar must repay the services of the girl's papah"
" What service? just get out of the company, find another job, and you don't have any more positions, but you can start together, right?"
" Unlike Ron, ka Afkar has been helped by Pak Wijaya, so that he can be now, and his daughter loves ka Afkar. Ka Afkar could not have left them at will after Pak Wijaya gave him a very good life just because I was seen as a new person"
" I'm sorry I just listened, ka Afkar chose you right Al? yes already fight, this is your life, the time you cower on, not tired"
" I'm tired of Syl, but can my life calm down to hurt another woman?"
" It's not you who hurts Al, it's your responsibility to get it done by staying away from the woman and marrying you, not your obligation to step down"
" I can't take Afkar's ka from Syl, Afkar's ka is giving her too much attention so naturally the girl wants more relationship from brother and sister".
" Lo say the same to Afkar Al, do not make your own decisions, you used to make your own decisions without involving ka Afkar finally this is right? even the two of you who are suffering, now you are planning to get married, you are retreating like this"
Kretek, Afkar opened the door and sat in the driver's seat, turned his head and smiled
" I'm sorry, baby, long wait"
Alya nodded
" It's okay ka, Alya is also chatting with friends"
" Ooh, are we going to Martapura?"
" Can you just go home?"
Afkar grabbed Alya's fingers and kissed her
" It's a pity, if you want it tomorrow, don't be pushed back"
Alya nodded.
Afkar turned the wheel and turned towards Banjarmasin again
" April why you?"
" It's okay, it's still her kids"
Alya glanced
"what kids? he's in love with kaka"
Afkar did not answer.
Hey that's what
" Ka, what's the arm?"
Alya held Afkar's arm which was like a scratch
" It's okay"
" Abrill's the same? ka Afkar clawed it?"
Afkar kept quiet while continuing to concentrate on the road.
" April's mad at Alya, isn't she?".
" No, don't think about it baby, he's my business, I'll talk to Mr. Wijaya"
" Speak what?"
" It looks like he has to talk to his daughter, I don't want my love life to be ruined"
" then?"
" Dear, if I'm no longer a manager and looking for another job, baby still want to fight with me?"
Alya looked at Afkar
" It's not a matter of Alya want or not ka, Alya always willing since a long time ago, it's a matter of responsibility ka Afkar no Aprill"
" Dear, I didn't do anything to hold me accountable"
" Ka, Aprill has already entered into the charm and kindness of kaka, it won't be easy for him to let go of sister for Alya"
" Can we just think about our future? don't put anyone else in, I'm tired"
" Alya also ka, Alya tanya . Answer honestly inside why so long?"
" Aprill is angry"
" then?"
" He again threatened me to tell Mr. Wijaya about us"
" About us?"
" Alya, I'm very prepared for anything, help me. Do you still want to fight with me when I come back with nothing?"
" Ka, Alya hates this question, did Alya take issue with it? Alya just wants ka Afkar firmly, choose Alya or April?"
" I chose you, of course"
Afkar turned his wheel on the roundabout of Liang Anggang towards Banjarmasin.
" But it is seen from the attitude of ka Afkar also love him"
Afkar.
Tiiiite.
Video call
Alya opened the phone, didn't Kevin?
Afkar glanced, his chest rumbling violently.
" Why not lift?"
Alya was silent
" Just lift it up"
Alya glanced at the man beside her who looked not well
" Alya does not want to make Afkar think that no-no, because Kevin has not contacted Alya for a long time"
" I'd think so if you didn't pick up now"
" We don't have any relationship anymore"
" I believe, just pick it up, maybe I can get to know her now"
Alya let her phone ring and not long to die from not being accepted.
Alya turned his head again towards Afkar who was focused on looking towards the road. Ka Kevin why call me in this state of affairs anyway?.
