Arsen Atmannegara

5 Years later

It's been 5 years Yasmine spent her days without Arsen. Missing, hating, and restlessness always haunts Yasmine's feelings. Once he tried to find the existence of Arsen but Miller forbid it.

Days change days, weeks change weeks and all change into years Yasmine chooses to forget her, not because she is not in love but she does not know where to look for Arsen, if both of his best friends fail to find Arsen let alone himself.

It has been 5 years friends - Arsen's friends have chosen their own path. Jimmy and Sandra are married and even Sandra is pregnant with Jimmy's child. Ervan and Amel are having a wonderful time dating. Kenan and Selena have just held their fiancee's show in Korea. Alex and Kevin are both busy with their up-and-coming distro business.

Yasmine is also happy with their current success, and now Yasmine is not only the son of a Haris Atmadja. He has become a Designer and has an elite boutique store in Jakarta. Miller, how are you doing with Miller? Now Miller is taking care of his Papa company and is taking care of plans to apply for Diana who is studying in America. Diana gets a scholarship and inevitably Miller has to wait for Diana's return from America.

Now they are gathering at an expensive restaurant in Jakarta. Although they have grown up and busy with their respective affairs, they still often gather to ask the news and let go of longing. This time they chose to gather to let go of longing with Jimmy and Sandra who had just returned from Italy.

"Yes." exclaimed Sandra who was sitting next to Jimmy.

"Yes San?" Yasmine turned her head towards Sandra who was rubbing her stomach which was starting to enlarge.

"Lo daydreaming?" ask Sandra.

"Ah no San" elak Yasmine, Sandra just smiled at Yasmine's expression.

"It's been 5 years since Arsen's disappearance, do you still choose to wait for him?" keep Jimmy.

"Yes Yas 5 years ago we lost the news of him Yas, do you still wish Arsen?" added Ervan who glanced at Yasmine.

Yasmine smiled faintly, "Gue also doesn't know there's a sense of longing and hate in my heart" Yasmine explained.

"But I believe Yas Arsen will return to Indonesia" said Kenan who sat next to Selena.

" Mabe "Yasmine shrugged her shoulders indifferently.

"But not all women want to wait 5 years for people who are not clear of their existence!" sarcasm with his annoyed face.

Sandra and Selena nodded to Amel's opinion, "Now Amel said" Selena replied.

"Pray the Boss to come back here" said Kevin who took a cigarette that he would suck his nicotine.

"Lo if you wanna smoke out there, my wife's pregnant!" jimmy glared at Kevin.

"Yes sorry Jim was so fierce" Kevin murmured, they laughed at the situation that never changed terjam they finished from the High School.

"How many months?" Amel rubbed Sandra's stomach.

"New 4 months Mel" Sandra smiled at Amel.

"Gue did not expect from all of us who first married Jimmy with Sandra" said Amel.

"When you are both so rich people don't know that" kekeh Amel.

"It all takes time for Mel's relationship" Jimmy explained.

The footsteps of someone sounded very calm. The man walked slowly, pressing the elevator button to the 20th floor. A handsome, tall and very cold man. Her tall body was wearing a long white shirt and wrapped in a brown mustard coat in addition to a navy scarf wrapped around her long neck.

The man before her stopped at the reception desk and asked someone where she was at this expensive restaurant and he headed straight for the 20th floor after the receptionist told her.

He sighed and closed his eyes for a moment. He stomped his feet on the floor to relieve his fear, he entered into a crowded room.

"I'm back." he said with his distinctive heavy voice. Those who were all joking around with each other turned to the voice they were familiar with. All the eyes that were in the room were wide in shock at who had come, let alone Yasmine.

"No way" Amel shut his mouth as if in disbelief.

"Sen."." said Ervan.

Jimmy stared flatly at the man who put his hand in his coat pocket. Yasmine is silent about the man's presence, her eyes begin to heat up, her head turning back memories - her past memories in High School.

"Arsen.." Yasmine's voice turned heavy, her chest felt tight and a clear liquid escaped from Yasmine's sad eyes.

"Yasmine." they all shrieked while turning towards Yasmine.

Yasmine's eyes catch a scarf wrapped around Arsen's neck, she remembers if it was a re-tool of Arsen's gift from her.

" That scarf" Yasmine closed her mouth as if in disbelief.

"Where are you going?!" hiss Jimmy this time he saw Arsen not as his best friend but rather saw him as a stranger.

"With his ease you go on and you come back here?!" snapped Jimmy.

"So doesn't mean me and Ervan are lo Sen's best friends?".

Bugh

Jimmy boasted Arsen's face with a powerful punch. They were all shocked by Jimmy's blow.

"Jimmy!" snapped Sandra.

"Jim calm inget lo wife again pregnant" lerai Kenan.

Ervan just froze to the ground to see Arsen slumped to the floor. Ervan was very familiar with Arsen but still could not believe what He saw.

Alex and Kevin help Arsen stand up for falling to the floor, "Sir gapapa?" ask Kevin. Arsen nodded his head slowly.

Arsen, he was Arsen the man who had disappeared like in the swallow of the earth and now he showed himself in front of the people closest to him. Yasmine is shocked not to play, Yasmine walks back to get away from Arsen even though her heart really misses Arsen but her mind refuses to forgive Arsen.

Her tears came down very profusely soaking up her white cheek skin. Yasmine walked forward as if wanting to approach Arsen until her right hand was raised upwards.

Plakkk

A loud slap landed on Arsen's cheek, "Jerk...!" yasmine Shouts.

Arsen was still holding onto her face which was painful due to Yasmine's slap but she was not angry about what Yasmine was doing.

"Yasmine.." said Arsen, her eyes kept looking at Yasmine who was still crying.

"Why did you come back here? Why?!" yasmine shouted who was still in disbelief at the current situation.

Arsen was still silently staring at Yasmine never had she seen Yasmine this one-hiteris, but she thought it was only natural for Yasmine to be like this. Arsen walked quickly towards Yasmine and directly hugged her in his arms.

"I'm sorry." she shrieked as she continued to stroke Yasmine's head.

Yasmine thrashed - thrashing in her arms, "Detach! Release me!" yasmine Ronta's.

Arsen hugged Yasmine even tighter, "I hate you! Hate it!" yasmine shouted who was still crying hysterically in Arsen's embrace.

"Sorry Yasmine... ".

"I love you".

"It's not my wish to stay you alone" said Arsen.

Yasmine let go of her embrace from Arsen, "You really love me just as I can't possibly be rich in gini" Yasmine looked up her head.

Yasmine picked up her bag, "Where are you going?" ask Amel.

Yasmine walks out the door but she stops, "Not everything can go back to how it was" Yasmine sneers at Arsen.

Arsen had already returned from his leave, yet like his Yasmine was still unable to accept Arsen. See U in the next chapter.
