FOREIGN DESIRANT
Episode 34 EPILOG 2
“They don’t know, how long to wait a love like this.”Kirana smiled happily when she saw the photo of her post. A man cradled on the shoulders of a toddler boy and a little girl in a headscarf who walked down a wooden bridge extending towards the grove of trees in front of him.
Moments later, the post on Kirana's Instagram account received a lot of response from Kirana's followers, mostly from loyal readers of her novels and other written works. Some of his colleagues and close relatives did not miss commenting on the post.
One of them must be from Kiara, though,
“Cieee, who again missed ^_^”
“Titip hugs and kisses for my favorite ponakan, Thariq and Ashima^,^”
Kirana's thumb quickly replied to her sister's comment.
“Ciyee, who just got married, sold out also”
“Titip greetings to de’ Fathur yes, prospective priest dreams Kiara”
And replied with a cover-up icon by Kiara. Kirana smiled satisfied after replying to her sister's comment.
He then turned off the data package on his smartphone to focus more on typing. He will resume the material that will
he delivered in front of the participants in the event launching his latest novel in three days, at Gramedia Balikpapan
Plaza.
The novel he published for the umpteenth time. Since continuing her education in Jogja, Kirana who likes to write met a community that helped her writing talent develop more rapidly and led her to give birth to a best seller novel titled “LOVE SO TWILIGHT”.
The novel tells the love story of a young man who chose to keep his feelings until old age, although in the end he also expressed his feelings for the woman in their old age. He also knew that the woman had been waiting for him for a long time but that was before! Before finally he chose another man who had long tried to approach the woman. Now her husband has gone for good and left behind three grown children. At their twilight age, leaving behind various ailments for the woman, the feeling-seeking man appears again and finally declares his love.
“Love that you crave, maybe it will never find its way and now let it stay that way until it breaks.”
The woman then left the man feeling alone, he stepped in shut
the door of the house is the door of his heart to the man.
people will receive that answer with their own understanding.
Kirana's writing career shone even more at that time. Psychology from college also helped him get many opportunities as a writer in national print media and became a speaker at many seminars and workshops.
It was from this activity that she met Atallah Putra Pratama, a Riau man, a young executive of a company engaged in Creative Industry and became her husband.
They both filled a seminar “YANG MUDA BERKARY” in one of the famous campuses in Bandung at that time. Young and energetic and fashionable men fall in love with smart, soft and modest girls.
Their story is so sweet. Although Kirana initially hesitates to accept Atallah, her character is very different from Alif's personality, her first love, and away from Rehan, the man who first proposed to her. Atallah who is dynamic, modern and very contemporary has an open view he receives many conditions from Kirana to be able to get to know more about the girl who made him stunned since he first met.
Girls who are very different from the girls he has met around him. Friendly despite maintaining distance, its appearance is closed but very sweet and unpretentious. But of all, Kirana is smart with her style and character. The principle of Kirana who did not want to touch when invited to shake hands made Atallah curious, and interested in reading Kirana's writings both from novels and articles that he wrote in print.
Atallah was convinced that Kirana would complete herself and be her companion. Which will lead him to a better life.
Kirana took a long breath. He paused for a moment from the typing. Then grab a family photo not far from his desk. Stared at the faces of her two adorable children, Kirana smiled faintly and her gaze shifted to the face of her husband, Atallah.
“How are you doing there? I do miss you. Can you see Thariq and Ashima from there? They grow up fast. It's not easy to go through this on my own, but the video tape that contains all your messages I always play to strengthen me. As you always say, Thariq really inherited your nature, his behavior, his smile, he was exactly like you and as you say Ashima was my copy. The other woman in front of you will bow your head to tie her shoelaces, your beloved daughter. Sometimes, they
ask me when daddy came home? Could you help me to answer it?”
Kirana wiped away her sudden flowing tears because she knew Atallah would not be able to answer. Two
last year, Atallah had an accident. The plane that was to take him home after his business trip from Japan crashed and was destroyed, Atallah's body was soon found. Kirana who knew the news was unconscious. It took him a long time to come back from his loss and disappointment. He had thought how unfortunate his love story, not as stupid as the first love, Alif. Rehan eventually marries Masyita and now after he finds the one who truly cares for her, chooses her and trusts her as the queen of his life, leaves for good, when he was at the height of happiness.
But the faith he had revived the spirit of Kirana's life. He cannot continue to blame fate. There is the love of Thariq and Ashima as well as the affection of his family that always
looking forward to her sincere smile, as sincere as the foreign swish in Kirana's heart.
