Chooses

Episode 15's

One walked up to Zeal, Khaya, Kay, Igo, and Ruki who were engrossed in conversation. The woman greeted Kay and Igo kindly. Kay and Igo could only smile in amazement at the beauty of the angel-like woman.

The woman smiled gently at Ruki. Ruki returned the smile of the woman. I don't know why it felt like Ruki had seen that woman. I often get a smile from that woman. Feels homesick. So missed.

Without feeling, Ruki's tears dripped down her smooth cheeks. The longer, the more the tears flowed more and more for no apparent reason. The angelic woman hugged Ruki warmly. Ruki's surprised. He returned the woman's embrace. It feels like his misses have been healed. Ruki was crying in the arms of the woman.

Kay and Igo just kept quiet. Zeal and Khaya smiled mysteriously.

After a bit of calm, Ruki took off her embrace. The woman also released her embrace from Ruki. He smiled and rubbed Ruki's head gently lovingly. Ruki's wrong. Face reddened.

“Ma-sorry...” says Ruki.

“Why should I apologize? What's your name?” ask the beautiful woman.

“Ru-Ruki.” replied Ruki.

“You're friends Kay and Igo huh?”

“Iya.”

“My name is Clayra! Kyruclayra Narakiy! Wife of Dyigan Jinja!”

“Tante Clayra is here?! Om Dyigan where?” ask Zeal.

“Om Dyigan is still abroad. There's still business! New day to here!” Khaya answered Zeal's question.

“Tante into first yes! Want to rest!” pamit Clayra's. Clayra walked away from the park and entered the residence.

Kay and Igo mourn Clayra's departure as if they can't believe Clayra is their aunt who is the wife of their uncle, Dyigan. They do not believe that Om Dyigan who has a look that is not very cute can get a wife that is very beautiful and similar to a khayangan angel. Could it be the advantage of love?

“Crazy, I didn't expect Om Dyigan's wife to be like a heavenly angel who came down to earth!” praise Kay amazement.

“I too! Must be a lot of rivals!” add Igo.

The plot!!! Tubs…. Buk!!! Plaque!!! Khaya hits Kay and Igo all out. “You guys are looking people not from the appearance of dong! You should also remember that Aunt Clayra is your aunt! Don't be insolent! Want me to tie up in a hot field for a week without food and drinks!?!” threatening Khaya is bad.

“Khaya if angry horrified, yes! I'm afraid to see it too, Zeal!” ruki whispered in a voice that Khaya could still hear.

Khaya approaches Ruki. “If not called, they are so brash!” Khaya defended himself.

“But if beaten continuously, kasian Kay ama Igo! If dried for a week without eating and drinking, they may die! Then no one else can help me! My winnings are reduced! Khaya also can not be angry anymore with them!” advice Ruki with his innocent look.

Hearing the advice of Ruki, Khaya could not dwell. Especially coupled with the plain look that Ruki offered. Khaya could not say anything and kept his head down. Kay and Igo are amazed to see Khaya lose to Ruki.

Then, Ruki accidentally sees Ryu from a distance. Ryu was pensively alone with a gloomy face. Ruki ran towards Ryu. Ruki approached Ryu and sat down beside Ryu while looking at Ryu's gloomy face.

“Ryu why?” tanya Ruki felt sorry to see Ryu.

“Not your business!” replied Ryu coldly. “You didn't make up a lie to Eva's grandmother, did you?! Meningan you quickly stop from here before falling deeper into this family!”

“I did it so I could meet Ryu! Only Ryu can understand my feelings! Ryu didn't care about my status! It was Ryu who could calm me down when I was sad! But, why is Ryu now the one who made me cry?!”

“Former ama now it's different!”

“Ryu, we used to cry together when we had to separate! Was that time Ryu just pretending to be sad?”

Ryu was silent for a moment. “Iya, so YOU CAN QUICKLY GO!!! You're NOT PANTES around RICH KIDS!!!” ryu reef.

Ruki's surprised. His body was a little trembling. His tears flowed down his cheeks. “If I was near Ryu, I could remember my childhood memories! I remember a few things about my childhood! It's because of Ryu! My name is Rukayaya Kyrana. Depan did not use’ frills Hina. My surname, I can't remember! This lock necklace is made of gold. There was a boy who had the same necklace as me! Without both necklaces, a box would not open! This necklace is a gift from mom! Mama's face, still in my head! Everything I know looks vague in my shadow! Only Ryu's shadow is clearly visible!”Ruki tells her everything that happened to her when Ryu was close to her.

“Te-continue, I mean Ryu give me this bracelet what? I'm sure Ryu behaved like this just in case of me, right?! This bracelet that Ryu gave me…. Ryu's special bracelet for me is a testament! If Ryu wants to waste me, Ryu will not carve these R and R initials. The initials of both of us! Ryu and Ruki! Ryu lied right?!” Ruki asks Ryu for an explanation while showing the bracelet Ryu gave first.

Ryu takes the bracelet he gave from Ruki's wrist and throws it into the rose garden that is behind them. “If you don't walk away, you'll be the same fate as that bracelet!” threaten Ryu who then leaves Ruki.

Ruki stood while looking at the rose garden. Tears flowed profusely from Ruki's eyes and soaked his smooth cheeks. Ruki. His sight began to blur. His memories began to open up a little.

　

Little Ruki was engrossed in playing with a guy who was two years older than him. Later, Ruki sees a woman pushing a guy who is next to little Ruki. The woman slapped the little Ruki until the little Ruki fell to the ground.

Ruki's mother immediately runs to help Ruki. Ruki's father scolds the woman who dares to slap Ruki. The woman left. Then, Ruki saw a boy who was no stranger to him was crying constantly. On his face was a sense of sadness, loneliness, and lack of affection.

The guy ran. He leaves Ruki's house. Running alone in the dark. There was not a single bit of light accompanying him. While the guy who was beside Ruki who was pushed by the strange woman earlier, stroked the cheeks of Ruki who was slapped by the strange woman earlier. The guy smiled gently at Ruki.

Ruki felt calm, comfort, and security when with the guy who stroked his cheek. With that guy, Ruki can laugh. The boy around his neck also coiled the same necklace as the one worn by Ruki.

“Ruki!” zeal zeal from a distance that makes Ruki aware to the real world. Zeal, Kay, Igo, and Khaya ran towards Ruki.

Ruki rushes to his feet and runs a little closer to the rose garden in search of Ryu's gift bracelet. Originally, Ruki was looking at the edges of the garden.  However, the bracelet was not found. Ruki was desperate to get into the thickets of roses. Because of his recklessness, Ruki's body was pierced by thorns coming from roses.

Ruki did not despair even though his body had been pierced by thorns. He never gave up even though he had to be pierced by thousands of thorns from the rose plant. Most importantly for him, Ryu's gift bracelet could be found. Zeal, Kay, and Igo approach the rose garden to immediately convince Ruki to get out of the rose plant that hurt her. While Khaya went inside the residence to take medicine and P3K.

“Ki, flick out of there!” kay's orders were anxious.

“Ngak!” refuse Ruki won't.

“STUPID! What's there?!” Igo is anxious and asks why Ruki got into the thorny rose bush.

“From bracelet from Ryu!”

“Stupid, cepet out!” kay and Igo shouted almost in unison.

“NGGAK!!” reject Ruki again and then cry while looking for her bracelet.

Suddenly, Zeal recklessly entered and pulled Ruki out from inside the rose plants. Ruki tries to escape from Zeal but, unable to. Zeal power is stronger. Zeal managed to pull Ruki out of the 3 meters x 3 meters rose plant.

Ruki was crying and continued to thrash. He's trying to get himself out of Zeal. Zeal asks Kay and Igo to hold onto Ruki. Ruki thrashed and continued to wriggle trying to release both his hands from the grip of Kay and Igo.

Zeal returns to the rose bushes and searches for Ruki's bracelet. Nearly an hour Zealander searched, finally he found Ruki's bracelet. Zeal out of that thorny hell. He attached the bracelet to Ruki's right wrist.

Zeal smiled softly. “Don't lose again ya!” her door.

Khaya who had been next to Kay spontaneously scolded Ruki and Zeal's recklessness. The drizzle started to fall and get louder. Ruki held back his sobs and allowed his tears to flow and fuse with the rain.

Kay infused Zeal by pressing a wound on Zeal's cheek as it was scratched by the thorn of a rose plant. Zeal grimaced in pain and brushed off Kay's hand. Khaya pinched Zeal's arm. Zeal neighs in pain.

Then, Ruki hugged Zeal while sobbing. “Huuu…. Sorry.. sorry Zeal! I'm sorry!!! Huwaa….. Hiks... hiks...” said Ruki while crying.

Zeal returned Ruki's embrace with a tight hug and gently stroked Ruki's hair. “Not sorry, but THANK YOU!” Zeal pressing word ‘thank you’.

The rain fluttered the bodies of Ruki, Zeal, Khaya, Igo, and Kay. However, a single smile was implied on their faces except, Ruki. Ruki was still thinking about Ryu. Somehow it feels like Ruki wants to know the true heart of Ryu. Knowing what Ryu is talking about. Knowing what makes Ryu has no spirit. Knowing the heavy burden borne by Ryu alone.

‘Ryu, why? Why did Ryu become like this? What is Ryu hiding? I would love to know Ryu's heart! I remember a boy who was always sad, moody, alone, and lonely! He is you Ryu! Then, do you know who my family really is Ryu?’ thought Ruki.
