BETWEEN YOU AND HIM
The Part 21
" Revil...!" syifa shouted again as she ran after Reyhan's car.
Syifa chased Reyhan to the highway but the car did not stop either. Should I cry? It seems like his destiny has always been his own.
" Oh my God, am I really going to be a badass?" Syifa wiped away the tears that began to flow.
Syifa did not know where else to go, money had no identity disappeared. Does he have to sleep on the streets if Reyhan refuses his arrival.
Syifa sat by the road thinking about her fate ahead. Wanting to get into Reyhan's office, it would definitely be very difficult since he did not have an identity card.

Reyhan was still talking to his client on the phone when Cathy called him. Steven also felt astonished by his sister who disturbed his president.
" Rey... Reyhaann!" peekik Syifa's.
Reyhan put his phone in his pocket after he finished calling his client.
" What's up, Cath? You're so noisy...!" reyhan.
" that... Rey.. that was. she..."
" What are you, obviously, speaking!" exclaim Steven.
" So it looks like I saw Syifa in front of the office."
Tc...!!!
Steven immediately braked suddenly until Reyhan bounced. Cathy also pegged her eel to a bruise.
" www...!" cathy and Reyhan.
" Cath, what are you saying?" exclaim Reyhan.
" Yes, Rey. I'm sure it was Syifa."
" There's no way he's here, you must have seen it wrong."
" It's up to you to believe it or not,"
" Road more, Stev! Soon the meeting starts." Reyhan ordered.
Reyhan looked out of the car and leaned back in his seat. He doesn't believe there's a Syifa in front of his office. Cathy must have been the wrong person, she had never met Syifa before. Only the photo on Reyhan's phone had been seen several times.
" Rey_..."
" At present, Cath! I've been trying to forget he didn't remind me back."
" But Rey, I'm pretty sure it's Syifa. He also shouted to your name."
" I don't want to talk about him anymore. Even if it's him, I won't see him!" Reyhan.
Cathy gives up convincing Reyhan that what she sees is indeed Syifa. They continued their journey to the meeting room.
Late in the day, Syifa was still waiting for Reyhan in front of the gate of the S.A Properties building. He had sought permission from the security to be allowed to wait inside, but he was rudely evicted for not being able to show his identity card.
Syifa's body was getting weaker because of her setting foot in the city she had not eaten anything. Because the night was getting late, Syifa set his feet in an uncertain direction to find shelter. For half an hour, there was no place to rest.
" Oh my God, what should I do now. I'm resigned if my life ends here." murmured Syifa lirih.
Syifa sat by the roadside to take a short break to recover her depleted strength. His body was getting weaker and suddenly collapsed unconscious when passing through a gate that had no idea what it was.

Reyhan is in his room now. After the meeting, he did not return to the office. Cathy's words this afternoon made her mood worse. All this day his thoughts were only on Syifa. His dream of a late Syifa - this ending was extremely agonizing for his inner self.
" O Allah, why do I feel unsettled at the end of this thought of Syifa. Did something bad happen to him?" reyhan murmured anxiously.
Actually Reyhan also felt something strange when he came out of the office this afternoon. Suddenly the shadow of Syifa appeared in his mind. Reyhan feels something bad is happening to Syifa right now.
" I'd better call papa to ask Syifa's situation right now" Reyhan murmured.
Reyhan contacted his papa who may now be in the office because in Indonesia it is morning by noon.
[ "Hello... Assalamu'alaikum, Rey." ]
" Wa'alaikumsalam, Pa. How are you and Mom?"
[" Rey, go home. Your mother is sick because she thinks about you. Please come home, just a minute to see him. Papa knows you're still angry because we didn't give you enough affection. Forgive us, Son. That's all papa and mama want, maybe this is the only request for papa and mama." ]
" What's your mom sick, Pa?"
[" Don't know yet, Rey. Your mother is very difficult to tell to eat. He keeps calling your name." ]
" Yes already, Pa. Rey is home right now. Assalamu'alaikum,"
[" Wa'alaikumsalam." ]
Reyhan rushed to contact Steven to prepare his private jet for a flight to Indonesia. Frantically thinking about her mother, Reyhan forgot to ask about Syifa.
Reyhan immediately packed up because in two hours he will fly to Indonesia. She contacted Cathy to reset her schedule at the office.

Papa Hendra praised Syifa's success in persuading Reyhan so that his son would return home immediately.
" Dani, I'm going home first. There's important business at home" said papa Hendra.
" What about the meeting, sir?" asked Deni astonished.
" You take care of it yourself, I'm not going back to the office today. I'm going to the boutique to see my wife."
" Okay, Mister."
Papa Hendra rushes to his wife's boutique. There turned out to be very crowded visitors when Papa Hendra came. After greeting his wife with the code, papa Hendra went straight upstairs.
" Papa Tumben here at this hour? Is there a problem at the office?"
" No, Ma. Papa just wants to tell the good news to mama,"
" What's the good news, Pa?"
" Today too, Reyhan returned to Indonesia."
" really? Papa seriously?"
" Yes, Ma. Just now Reyhan called papa and asked how mom is doing. After papa explained, he immediately prepared - ready to go home."
" But, Pa... Why is Syifa's phone off? My mom was worried what was going on with her. It's the first time she's gone so far, Pa?"
" Of course, Syifa is with Reyhan now. You don't have to worry about the kids."
" But, Pa. Mama's feelings are stuck. Just thinking about Syifa."
" It's okay, tomorrow they'll be home."

Reyhan's been getting ready in his private jet. He will soon fly to Indonesia. But strangely, he did not think of his sick mother but instead worried about Syifa.
" O God, I should have been more worried about my sick mother, not about Syifa that I should have forgotten" Reyhan murmured.
Reyhan is trying to sleep in order to rest his body and mind. However, Syifa's shadow in her dream felt even more real.
" Isa..why is my head only in Syifa! How can I forget it if it goes on like this." siss Reyhan.
Tired of thinking about her thoughts and feelings, Reyhan ended up falling asleep as well. Several times he woke up to see Syifa again in front of his office.
Not felt, it had been a dozen hours he flew above the clouds until finally reached Soekarno - Hatta Airport. Exiting the airport, Reyhan rushes to find a taxi to drive him home.
" Thank God, finally arrived at the birthplace." Reyhan's inner voice smiled slightly.
" Fa, would I be selfish if I were still expecting your love? Maybe it's wrong, but I can't stop it." Reyhan murmured as he rubbed a picture of Syifa on his phone.
Early in the morning Reyhan had arrived at the residence of his parents. A house he rarely lived in since high school. Reyhan used to prefer to live in an Apartment rather than at home because his parents were also rarely at home.
Reyhan's taxi stopped in front of the gate and it came down immediately. Until in front of the gate was still quiet, Reyhan pressed the bell so that the security who was still asleep was immediately awake and opened the gate.
" Young Master?" security was shocked.
" Assalamu'alaikum, sir"
" Wa'alaikumsalam, sir. Please come in, don't you ask to be picked up, sir?"
" It's still too early, I can take a cab home."
Security was staring out the gate like looking for someone.
" Who are you looking for?" ask Reyhan.
" Mmm. No, sir."
Reyhan immediately went inside the house and saw his parents walking to the back garden of the house.
" Assalamu'alaikum.." said Reyhan with a smile.
" Wa'alaikumsalam, Masya Allah Rey.you finally came home too." mama hugged Reyhan while crying.
" I'm sorry Reyhan, Ma."
" Rey, where's Syifa...?"
