Failing to Marry Young
Easily forgave



"Why don't you go?" lisa asked while pinching Riefky's little belly.


"Actually I've been packing will fly to Germany today, but hearing from Shasa that your Mama's accident made me cancel today's departure." riefky answered while rubbing Lisa's cheeks that had been soaked in tears.


Since meeting at the mall the other day accidentally with Lisa, Riefky makes the decision to follow her parents in Germany and will live there with her parents. Riefky had already booked a flight ticket for himself, even selling his apartment which he had been living in to his friend.


"Thank you for coming to my Mama's funeral, now you can go to your destination" Lisa looked at Riefky's longing face.


"I'll take you home, will you?" riefky asked a little doubtfully.


"May it not trouble you" replied Lisa agreeing.


Riefky drives off her car, leaving the funeral and two people who don't take her eyes off Riefky's car.


"Woodoo you are stupid! Why did you tell Lisa to go with that guy, what if that guy had the same evil intentions as Lisa or Lisa was kidnapped and taken abroad." Rara yelled annoyed and punched the air as fast as she could.


"Why are you angry, Ra?" asked Bayu glanced at Rara with a cynical look.


"You stupid stupid stupid fool!" shouting Rara and leaving Bayu alone, Rara returns to the car to calm her emotions.


Bayu walked slowly away from where he stood, he came back to the tomb of Mama Rose and rested.

The day started at night, showing at 22:00. Riefky parks her car in Lisa's yard and wakes Lisa to sleep after leaving the funeral.


Because Lisa was too hard to wake up, Riefky brought a bag of food for Lisa's dinner and herself, because she knew Lisa must be very hungry after a long day of crying.


Bayu took the keys to the house that Mama Rose used to keep in her favorite flower pot, she opened the door and put food on the dining table, after finishing he returned to the car and carried Lisa to be moved to the living room sofa.


"Hey where are we?" lisa's asking opened her eyes since Riefky put her body on the sofa.


"In your house. We eat yuk." take Riefky to Lisa's hand.


"Eat what? There was no food at home" Lisa stopped her steps.


"I stopped by a fast food restaurant and bought two meals for dinner" said Riefky again taking Lisa to the dinner table.


Instantly a smile splashed on Lisa's beautiful face, she smiled happily at Riefky who cared about her. Lisa sits on her stool and confronts Riefky.


"Thank you, sister." said Lisa and pulled the corners of her lips together to form a smile to make Riefky return her smile.


For the first time Lisa ate at her home dining table without her Mom and Sister, and for the first time she had dinner together with Riefky at her home. There were droplets dripping from the corner of Lisa's eyes, she felt her heart turn back again when she remembered the bitter reality that took her Mama's life, Lisa lowered her head and cried, he could not bear to pretend to be strong for too long in front of others.


"So, I want to sleep in my room." - Lisa.


"I'll take you to the room, come on." get Riefky to wake Lisa up from her stool.


Riefky rubbed Lisa's limp body, her heart was so sick to see her lysis brittle to this extent.


Upon arrival in Lisa's room, Riefky slid Lisa's body slowly on the bed, and she sat on the edge of the bed holding Lisa's hand.


"You must learn to be sincere little by little so that Mama Rose is calm, you must be strong Lisa, there I am here who is ready at any time to accompany you, now you are asleep, you are sleeping, calm your mind." said Riefky while rubbing Lisa's hand.


Lisa just nodded and tried to close her eyes. Riefky pulls the blanket over and covers Lisa's body up to her neck, and she leaves Lisa alone in the room as Riefky will sleep in the living room.

"Hello why Bro?" riefky asked someone who contacted him.


"I've already transferred the car money to Lo's account, when can anterin his car to my house?" gofar asked, Riefky's friend who bought the car.


Riefky sold his car to Gofar, as he was going to Germany with the money he was selling for his German venture capital, but with Lisa's fragile state as it is now makes it unbearable to go far away from Lisa, but Riefky still so sell his car to handle life while living in Jakarta without work.


"Thank's Far, later in the afternoon I anterin his car to Lo's house." replied Riefky with a heavy sigh because he had to give up his favorite car for sale.


"Okay Ki, I'm waiting for ya" Gofar said and disconnected his call.


Riefky sat pensively, his brain thought what steps he should take after being blacklisted from PH X due to gossip that tarnished his name and became public consumption to cause the soap opera he starred had to stop in the middle of the road, inevitably Riefky must pay the penalty that has been written in the contract letter.


Suddenly Riefky heard Lisa's cry from her room, she ran to Lisa who was sitting in the corner of the room hugging a white paper.


"Lisa what's going on?" riefky asked in panic.


"Mom knows he's leaving, but why didn't he tell me before he left? Why did she just write it down in this letter and I just read it after she left." Lisa's crying became even more so.


Riefky grabbed the white paper that Lisa hugged and she read it from the beginning to the end paragraph, Riefky closed her eyes while imagining for all the evil she had done to Lisa and her mother but they did not retaliate with evil back, instead they returned with kindness, makes Riefky feel embarrassed and apologizes to Lisa again.


"Lisa forgive me." said Riefky raucously.


"You don't have to apologize anymore, sister, Mama and I have forgiven you ever since you came home with your parents. Get up, there's no need to squabble like this" Lisa said.


"Lisa I promise, I promise to keep you for the rest of my life, I promise to be a loyal friend to you, I promise I won't betray you again as your friend, Lisa I'm so ashamed of you guys who so easily forgive me, you really are women who have a broad heart, I'm lucky to have been a part of you for even a moment."
