I Just Want to Be Loved (Part II)
Childhood mate
The Flasback
17 Years ago.
Nelan saw a little girl lying weakly in the IGD room of her kakenya hospital. Nelan approached the little girl and gently stroked her trunk with her tiny hands that were placed on hinpus needles.
" Is it really painful?" Nelan touched the little girl's cheek.
"You're a beautiful child, if you get up quickly and recover, when you grow up I'll marry you, so hurry up and don't make your mother cry again, promise ", Nelan made a little promise with the girl.
It was a promise Nelan made the first time he met Richa.
💫💫💫💫
1 year later.
New York's.
When Nelan and his family vacation to New York City. Somehow his parents took him to visit the hospital in the city. Then when Nelan was playing in the park, Nelan was painting under a lush tree, and soon a little girl approached him.
And the little girl immediately sat down beside him and asked him many things. When the cool talk arrived the little girl suddenly fell unconscious and Nelan helped her call the nurse and her parents. Then when Nelan returned to the bottom of the lush tree, Nelan found a hairpin that fell there. The hairpin belonged to the little girl. Nelan picked up the little thing and subconsciously took it home. Nelan also kept it very well in the closet in her room.
On the other hand, the newly conscious Richa saw the back of the man she had just met in the park.
" Mommy..!?"
" Yes, Honey?"
" The brother.."
" Hmm? Who's son? Which brother?"
Richa raised his finger and pointed towards the outside of the room. At that time, a boy was standing with his parents.
" Richa wants to marry that sister.." Richa said before he finally fainted again.
It was the second time they had met each other unexpectedly. The next meeting is when both are adults. In an apartment belonging to Rehan's friend and belonging to the son of his father's co-worker Nelan.
At that time Richa was escorted by Nelan to the police station and put in a cell for half a day. Which turns out they are already bound by fate or can be called childhood soul mate.
Who would have thought they finally really married and became a couple who loved each other like today.
Off Flasback.....
" Really?" Richa said stunned by what he had just heard from her husband's mouth. Nelan took something out of his shirt pocket.
Richa was shocked when he saw what was in Nelan's hands. A pink hairpin patterned Hello Kity. The hairpin was hers from 17 years ago. Which apparently is still in storage by Nelan.
Richa's eyes began to twinkle, there was already a puddle in his eyes at this moment. Which was instantly swept away by his eyelids and flowed out.
" Mad.. I, I didn't think that the one who helped me that day was you, honey."
" Of course you don't know. I would've forgotten it too if you hadn't reminded me."
" Mother?"
" Hm. Just recently my mother told me everything, things that have been forgotten by me."
Richa smiled sweetly at her husband.
"Even though it's too late, But I will tell you this.." Nelan said as she grabbed Richa's hand.
( "It's too late, but I want to tell you this.")
 "The story of our love is only beginning. Let's write our own happy ending."
("Our love story has just begun. Let's write our own happy ending.")
"Having you by my side is what completes me."
"When I think of the future, I like to picture us as two trees planted side-by-side, our roots growing together more firmly as the years go by, and our children sprouting like seedlings around us."
("When I think of the future, I like to imagine us as two trees planted side by side, our roots grow together stronger as time goes on, and our children sprout like seedlings around us.")
The words of love that Nelan uttered were very long and broad. Richa was unable to even say a word. Then Nelan took out the ring box from the pile of red roses on the table.
A big smile and a haru was seen on Richa's face.
" I want to make up for my delay in putting my love and feelings into you. I'm sorry I didn't propose to you properly before.. Today I'll make up for everything."
" Richa Qajila, will you accept me to live the rest of your life with me until the end of life separates us."
" Hikk hikk, Mas.. I-I. I love you, how I might reject it. When I found out I couldn't live without you anymore. I'm willing to love." Reply Richa.
Nelan pinned the ring on Richa's middle finger. Because the ring finger has been embedded in their wedding ring before.
💫💫💫💫
The happiness that Nelan promised was fulfilled by him very well. More and more days Nelan increasingly show love and affection abundant in his son and his wife.
" Was..!? Can you help me?" Said Richa who was bothered with kitchen affairs.
" What's the darling?"
" Arya has a lot of people who have run out, can go to the supermarket to buy it?"
" all right. I'll take Arya with me too."
" Hm. Heart of hearts dear."
Nelan left home with her beloved son. Inside the supermarket Nelan put Arya into a shopping cart. His son looked very happy because he was invited with his father.
" Arya likes those toys? Is there anything that Dedy's son wants again?" Nelan asked Arya.
Arya just mangosteen mangosteen quickly.
After all the needs are already in the shopping cart Nelan and Arya pay for the groceries and immediately go home.
But upon arrival at Nelan's house gets a call from Dion and Arga. That forced him to go to the office in a hurry after putting all the groceries on the living room table.
" What's up, mas?" Richa asked confusedly.
" I'm sorry, honey. I have to go to the office now. No need to wait for me tonight. I may not be able to go home and will be overtime." Nelan said while kissing Richa's forehead.
" Dedy goes to work first, son. Good at home same mom. Umhuachh. Dedy's son is smart." Nelan's message before she finally gets out of the house.
Richa did not know this time what other cases her husband was handling. But Richa always prayed that all could complete the task well. And back home in good shape, not hurt in the least.
