The walls and ceiling of the small room were now blue, like the color of the sky in the afternoon, bright blue without clouds. The color made me so much more excited about welcoming the morning, like a soul who had just gotten a transfusion. But this one I call a transfusion of love-love from Reza Dinata.
"Congratulations, Inara. Don't embarrass! Reza hasn't even said that she loves you," I said that to the mirror in front of me.
Yesterday Reza told me that he will be in Surabaya for two more days, and will return to Bogor tomorrow the day after tomorrow. He asked me to spend two twenty-four hours with him.
Yep, two full days.
It was our fifth day together, he wanted to take me for a walk he said, and would pick me up at ten in the morning. When he came, I was very confident to open the door for him. I felt like he was fascinated when he saw me. With my sky-blue jumpsuit, the sabrina collar widened and horizontally from shoulder to shoulder, as well as my hair tied high back, was, he seemed stunned and stunned to see me at the first moment, then to look at me from top to bottom in the next second. I realized in that split second, when he saw me his eyes didn't blink at all.
However, after that Reza even made my heart cry when he asked me to wear a jacket. It turned out that he didn't like to see me in such clothes, I thought. I took the jacket from the closet and put it on without protest and without asking anything.
"Pass." He held two thumbs up at me.
Upon our arrival in the parking lot, I just understood the meaning of the fitting word he said. Reza picked me up on a big bike. He said to borrow from the resto employee, and the word fitting means fixed on my jumpsuit. I could sit on her bonnet rather than if I wore a dress, as well as a jacket that protected my skin from the heat of the hero city.
Reza took me on a tour to Kampung Bulak, not far from the location where the boarding. We stopped in the parking lot a few moments later, he parked the bike and quickly pulled me into his arms, making my heart sag to my stomach.
Vod....
"Why?"
"Just open it."
"What?"
"That."
"That's what?"
"Jacket," he whispered.
"Oh.. jacket." I said.
I pretended to be mediocre, while Reza smiled-making my confidence back one hundred percent. My heart that had shrunk back to inflate perfectly, completely perfect.
"Trims, dress up this pretty for me."
"Look at me if I'm wrong. Hmm?"
I can't...! Even if he's wrong, I won't be able to look him in the eye. Because in those eyes there is love that is able to penetrate right into my heart. And you know, I'm busy holding a smile that doesn't keep expanding. Oh, my cheeks are red, I'm ashamed....
Long story short, through the village, I understood the implied meaning, that he wanted my world to be full of colors, such as paint the walls and roofs of the houses in Kampung Bulak, Bulak, beautiful with very bright and cheerful colors. We captured the moment with a short video, both of us.
"Thank you for bringing me here" I said.
He's nodding. "Either. But I hope you understand my purpose in bringing you here."
"What?" I pretended not to understand.
At that time Reza rubbed his fingers on my cheek, then patted it on my lips, again making my blood rustle. "You're a great woman. You're smart. And I know, you get what I mean."
Hoaaa. I smiled. My nose is flat and my chest cavity is bubbling at the compliments from her. "I want to hear that directly from you" I said.
"Rainbow. I won't be able to bring a rainbow from up there. But I can put those beautiful colors into your life. As long as you give me a chance."
I'm speechless. Of course he understood that what I meant the other day was just a figurative word. No one can bring a rainbow from up there. After all, the rainbow itself was merely an incontent refraction of light.
Once again he rubbed his knuckle on my cheek. Suddenly I remembered the friendly scene of Reza Rahadian touching the face of Ayushita in the film The Gift, I almost expressed the same expression as Ayushita who enjoyed the soft touch of Reza Rahadian's hand.
"Inara," Reza's voice cut off my wild fantasies.
"Emm?"
"Do I have that chance?"
I was silent for a moment, then nodded -- but said nothing. While Reza smiled thankfully, she pulled me into her arms and grabbed me tightly, I felt my ribs crumbling.
"I waited for moments like this for three years, moments of finding someone who would be an important part of my life" she said.
While sighing, I leaned my cheek against his chest. It was as if there were just the two of us and there was no one ready there. I don't care, this so-called world feels like both, how comfortable I feel being in her arms.
