Arinda, First Love

The taste may still be the same

The sky had turned very dark when Arin and Raka reached a garden. The two could not stop laughing at the annoyed expressions of the 2 handsome men they had tricked a moment ago.

Arin is not angry or offended by the lies that Raka uttered in front of Satria and Bayu. He even felt helped by Raka's lie because at least for some time he would not be disturbed by the two.

That's also if they are men who are gentle and know about not good at tempting other people's lovers. Arin was very grateful to Raka.

"Ah, my goodness Raka thank you very much. I'm really grateful for your help today" Arin said as she breathed in deep oxygen as she looked up at the night sky happily.

"Maybe you're the only one who's grateful when someone claims to be your girlfriend to the people you know" Raka replied as she looked at Arin in disbelief.

"Hah, you don't know how disturbed my life with the presence of 2 people" replied Arin honestly.

"Yes, that's what made me suddenly have an idea to pretend to be your boyfriend. Because their arrival looks so disturbing your comfort." explained Raka makes Arin amazed by the most sensitive human he has ever met so far, he thought.

"Ah Raka, I really like you. We're definitely fit to be good friends. From now on we'll be together, right?" said Arin while extending her hand with a sweet smile.

"Te..friends?" asked Raka who was a little surprised by what Arin said.

To be honest besides being surprised by some of Arin's attitude and nature that he just knew, Raka's silence was more because her heart suddenly pounded so hard every time she looked directly into Arinda's eyes.

Seeing Arin smile made her completely fascinated and subconsciously muttered the praises for Arin in her heart. During this time he often noticed Arin who was very quiet.

He heard a lot from his friends in the boarding house about Arinda who became the only occupant of the boarding princess who is very difficult to approach. Even if you are just talking to talk.

The first time he saw Arin, there was a little interest in his heart in the girl who often spent the night alone on the balcony.

And after getting to know him Raka became really more and more fallen into his charms. Not bad, starting a relationship with a friendship.

Who knows, if someday maybe God will turn it into something beautiful Raka thought. Arin who was getting upset because Raka who had just daydreamed had to finally pat Raka on the shoulder hard enough to wake her up.

"Raka ! Raka... Raka !!" call Arin while patting Raka's shoulder hard until she wakes up.

"Oh my God, Arin you surprised me." said Raka made Arin immediately back laughing.

"Eat him do not daydream, my neighbor's chicken died yesterday after daydreaming how much he will lay eggs" said Arin made a joke.

"Don't think you can also joke" said Raka while smiling looking fixedly at the owner of the brown eyes.

Arin also laughed satisfied to hear Raka's words. It's been a long time since I could be such a normal person. This is probably the first time he has spoken to anyone other than his family.

Even in the office, Arin does not like to joke or just respond to jokes made by Andi or Herti.

"Rin, are you really like this?" asked Raka suddenly stopped the voice of Arin who was satisfied laughing at their situation at that time.

"The real me? I honestly don't know either. Perhaps more precisely, this is what I used to be." replied Arin reminiscing about his past which was always in color.

Until finally Satria took all the colors in her life away and replaced them with endless darkness, she thought.

"Arin, can you try it just once?" tanya Raka said seriously.

"Counseling, would you like to? I'll arrange a counseling schedule for you. Who knows it can make you feel better again." said Raka seriously staring fixed into Arinda's eyes.

"Are we not doing it?" ask Arin while laughing.

"Yes slightly. But it would be better if you make a counseling appointment at the hospital. Looks like it will be better, I will recommend the best doctor to you." honestly Raka so hope.

Arin smiled wryly as he looked up at the sky. He arranged a few words for her to say to Raka.

"Raka, I am not a person who easily believes and is open with others" Arin said.

"I don't need a doctor to heal. I just need a friend like you. It feels like I haven't complained to anyone for so long" added Raka, who still hears well.

"I was so happy, I was so disappointed. And that disappointment that has haunted me for several years and made me a very cowardly person." Arin said again while arranging his heart.

"i'm just a woman who has loved so much that she's finally been heartbroken. As I kept remembering it, I hated myself even more. I was too cowardly to accept the bitter reality that was so painful, because I was once too deeply in love with someone." explained Arin released his heart which he had been closed tightly.

"Is that the man who met us at the cafe?" tanya Raka made Arin really surprised.

"How do you know?" asked Arin a little surprised.

"He doesn't stop looking at you with a different look. There was no resentment or resentment in her eyes for you, I just saw a lot of regret and sadness in her view." Raka said with a small smile.

"He must be very sorry, is that why you introduced yourself as my girlfriend?" asked Arin who finally realized.

"Yes, that's how it is." answered Raka gave a smile.

"Would I give you a suggestion?" ask Raka .

"What?" answer Arin.

"I'm sorry for him" said Raka made Arin's eyes perfectly round.

"No, never will." replied Arin ketus.

"Alright, then enjoy the continuous pain that you feel all this time" said Raka made Arin speechless.

"You don't want to forgive him as if you still love him so much" Raka said, making Arin unacceptable.

"I don't have any feelings for him anymore" Arin said a little emotionally.

"If you don't love him, you shouldn't feel hurt anymore. Because he's not hurting you now. He only hurt you in the past, when you loved him so much." Raka said so heartbroken.

"You don't have to get hurt anymore if you can let go of the hatred in your heart. Because the only reason that makes you so hurt is because you love someone too much." said Raka again make Arin's tears suddenly fall without stopping.

Arin sobbed with a heartbreaking sounding cry. Raka immediately pulls Arin into his arms so that Arin can spill all his feelings.

"You are so hurt that you still hold the same love and so great." Raka's inner voice as she gave a gentle pat on Arin's back to calm him down.
