section 33. Too bad



Two days, it had been two days that Rega had exchanged messages with Claviora. Rega kept his word to invite Claviora to chat even though with secondary contact (indirectly/by cellphone). Yes, even though just exchanging news or just saying hello is not really important.


Although Rega and Claviora used to be close friends when sitting in the upper middle, but after a few years apart, their interaction is now quite stiff, not quite anymore, but it is rigid. Actually Rega wants to chat in person/face to face with Claviora for the future. But because these two days he was quite busy and Claviora herself was also visiting/staying at her parents' house which is quite far from here, maybe tomorrow Rega intends to invite Claviora for a walk despite being lazy. It feels like Rega is better to invite Rafa to run in the morning or take the child for ice cream snacks in the minimarket.


Tomorrow happens to be Rega's schedule of holidays because in one Sunday Rega always prepares one day to escape the name 'job'.


Now that it was midnight, Rega had just parked his car in the garage. His face was tangled, with a tie already sidelined over his shoulders.


Chequelek


The state of the house is still bright, it means that the residents in it are still literate, oh that's for sure, because Rega always forbids Rima to sleep before she reaches this house. But it was a pity to see him sleeping by laying his hands on the table. The woman's face was also very tired.


"Five, wake up." Rega knocked on the table three times until Rima woke up.


"Sir.."


"awake. Move to the room." Rega told Rima to go back to sleep in the room.


"Master doesn't want to eat?"


"Who said? I cape all day. And my stomach is hungry as usual where maybe I don't eat." Rega sat himself down.


"Let me heat up the food."


"no need. You just sleep in the room."


"but sir-"


"Sleep!"


Without refuting Rima immediately turned around to enter her room.


"Rima, next time there's no need to wait for me to come home this late. Just prepare dinner, after that wait for me until 9 or 10. If I don't go home yet, you sleep in the room. Don't forget to lock all the doors." Rega thought it was enough he was too troublesome Rima. It was also a pity that the woman had to wait for him almost every day.


"Good sir."


****


In accordance with the prescribed schedule, today Rega has an appointment with Claviora. Cafe with shades of chocolate, is the right choice for chatting.


This afternoon was very hot, although it was almost four in the afternoon, but it seemed like the sun was still emitting its rays. Coupled with the atmosphere of a cafe that is very crowded, increasingly makes Rega become sultry.


It had been a few minutes Rega waited, to the extent that the coffee he ordered had been half exhausted. Really hate to have to wait like this. Why do people spend so much time? Or they don't know that the person they are waiting for may have very little time.


Rega glanced at his watch then let out a rough breath. It's been almost half an hour he's been sitting here, to the point that his ass is hot.


"Ck." Rega got up from his seat. Maybe the girl still has other activities.her phone is also inactive.


After paying for coffee, Rega immediately drove to his car in the parking lot. Just as he opened the door, someone had patted him on the shoulder which made Rega immediately turn around and violently pat that hand.


The woman with a black tank top with a layer of knit jacket had offended her hands on the edge just like that. But when he heard the 'sorry' from Rega's lips made his smile back.


"Where are you? We're meeting here?"


It could be that this girl asked like that after making him wait for a long time.


"What time is it? And what time did we promise to meet? I didn't have much time to wait" he said, after which Rega got into the car.


"Sorry, there was a little bit of a problem. We're having a conversation, right?"


"You think?" Rega lowered his car's glass.


"I hope so" he said slowly.


Rega let out a tired breath, "Then go in, we'll find somewhere else." It's a shame that they didn't meet today, he thought.


The car drove across the street, Claviora with her confused face did not know where to take it, finally started the conversation.


"Emm, ga, where are we going?"


"Don't know, maybe we need an open space to talk?" Rega took a quick glance at Claviora, "there are some things to be sure of, before our relationship continues. You're not an existence?"


"Of course not." Claviora replied firmly. "but, can we speak freely, the point is not rigid like this. Just relax like you used to." Claviora hissed after saying so. There was a little shame in expressing his wish.


"Totally so."


****


"So how?"


"What?"


"What do we want to talk about now?"


"Ohh, wait a minute." Rega left Claviora in her seat towards one of the cup-drink sellers.


They both got to where they were looking. Maybe because it was late afternoon, this park became quite quiet, so the two could talk quietly.


"It's a drink."


"Thank you."


"Hm."


There are actually a lot of questions about Rega. He had absolutely no problem if he had to marry Claviora, after all there was no harm. Claviora's beautiful? Is clear! Fragrant? Sure did! Clever? Sure is!


But the thing is, Rega couldn't have married Claviora without an introduction. It's been eliminated, even though they were close friends long ago. But that was then, not now. So yes just the same, Rega needs time to get to know the figure of Claviora again which is of course the current version.


About the time at the dinner table at that time, Rega who intends to marry Rima. It was just spontaneous, Rega did not think at all before saying that. He just wanted his mother to know that he was not interested in Claviora or any other woman, in a way that his mother thought that he was only interested in Rima, so his mother didn't have to bother to find him another woman.


But how else? Her mother is very grumpy


"Rome." Claviora's voice was beautiful.


-sa.


"Khmm, look, there are a few questions and statements to our conversation." Rega looked serious.


"okay."


"you're back in England?" First question. This includes simple questions that are not very important to everyone. But for Rega it's important! He should know how much longer this girl stays in this country.


"yes, about four months away. I'm just here to go on vacation and meet family."


Rega was quite surprised by Claviora's answer, he thought Claviora was finished with her education.When they get married, Rega will be in the UK? while it's still the newlyweds? ohhhh can't!


"Okay, do you have a boyfriend or a boy friend?"


Claviora laughed, "heyy you know, I have a lot of friends. Of course I have some close male friends. I hope you don't mind that?"


No objection? Huh! Rega strongly objected. He does not want to have a relationship with a woman who has many male friends. There is no harm. But Rega also deserves not to like it, right?


"Do you agree with this marriage?"


"Why not?"


"For example, after we get married, the dictionary will still go to England?"


"yes, I may have left my education. Education is so important Rega." Claviora was not so stiff anymore.


"If education is important, you think. Why do you want to marry someone who is just a high school graduate."


"What's? You're not in college?" She's surprised.


"Yes, why?"


"It's a shame." Claviora's face looked grim.


"What a shame? Hn, you're embarrassed to have a husband who is just a high school graduate and the wife who graduated abroad?" Rega was offended.


"Bu-not so-"


"There's nothing you can be proud of me, Claviora."
