I've seen you

Rizal's Story

Rizal invites Lisa to sit in the long chair in front of the patrol station near Lisa's house. There were only a few people then.

"I'm not actually the same as Sofi." Rizal started the conversation.

Lisa now looked at Rizal from the side and let Rizal continue his story.

"I had to get close to Sofi so she wouldn't do anything anymore."

"That's called false hope. Love cannot be forced."

"But Sofi forced."

Lisa smiled thinly. "That's because Rizal's too perfect to have."

Rizal now turned to look at Lisa. "There is no one perfect. If I were perfect I would be happy with my love."

"Sister Goddess? He's lucky to be in love with Rizal's sister."

Rizal took a long breath. "God many stories are the same as you? How is the Goddess now?"

Lisa was silent for a moment. Actually, he really did not have the heart to lie to Rizal. "good. God doesn't tell us much about Goddess."

"The goddess left after quarreling with Sofi. He never called me at all. I should have been able to protect him. But maybe, in this way he will no longer get problems from me. That's why I want to move on from all the memories with the Goddess even though it's very difficult." Rizal rubbed his face. A lot of regret is implied.

Lisa shifted her eyes. He couldn't hold back his tears. Those tears just escaped wetting her cheeks again. Once Lisa knew the true story, her heart grew less and less willing to cover all of this from Rizal.

"Sorry, I want to go home first." Lisa stood up and hurried to step her legs while rubbing the origin of her tears.

"Lisa, what's wrong with you?" Rizal stands up and pulls Lisa's hand preventing her from leaving. She knew Lisa was not feeling well. "Why are you crying again?"

Lisa only looked down, especially when Rizal held both shoulders and looked at her. "I got the wrong word?"

Lisa shakes.

"Then?"

Lisa is still silent. He dared to look at Rizal. Want to say something but get stuck.

"One thing you should know, I... I can't be far from you. This look in your eyes..." Rizal raised his hand slowly then wiped away the remains of Lisa's tears.

"Why?"

"There is one taste that cannot be expressed in words..."

Lisa was stunned to hear Rizal's words. He looked at my dear Rizal and let Rizal turn his body away.

A few moments later Lisa walked home. Only a few more meters to reach the alley of his house. Suddenly someone threw him a paper. It was hard enough to hit Lisa's back because it contained a small rock inside.

Lisa took the paper while looking to the right and left. The sound of a motorcycle that previously passed by was far away even already invisible.

"What's this?"

Lisa widened her eyes as she read the warning letter.

NO ONE CAN HAVE RIZAL!!!!

Instantly Lisa shuddered. He threw the paper away and went into his house.

"Lisa what's wrong?" bu Reni asked as she saw Lisa rush into the house.

"It's okay, Ma." Lisa immediately went into the kitchen and took a glass of water to relieve her fear.

"Where is the state of the God's Mother?" ask Ms. Reni who followed Lisa to the kitchen.

"Kasian yes. Surely he is very sad." said Ms. Reni who already knows a little story of the Goddess who has died.

Lisa nodded. He still had to calm himself. She wanted to tell her mother but she didn't want her mother to worry about this.

"Mama is so grateful, you survived the accident and are now healthy." Ms. Reni smiled warmly while rubbing Lisa's hair that began to melt in sweat.

Lisa returned a smile to Ms. Reni. There was not much Lisa could talk about at the time. Mind mess. He was scared, but he had to carry on.

Nothing will happen to me...

...***...

"Sofi, okay I agree. I can deket you just as long as you don't disturb Lisa anymore. And about your birthday, I'll come and be your dance partner."

A smile of victory rose on Sofi's lips at that moment.

Rizal rubbed his face considering how stupid the decision he made was. Now every day she has to go to school and let the aggressive Sofi get close to her.

After a long sigh, Rizal put on his helmet and prepared to advance his motorbike because he had been riding it while daydreaming.

Rizal motor runs relaxed. From a distance he saw Lisa standing in front of his bar. She hesitates, it is impossible for her to get past Lisa without offering her a ride.

Rizal stops his bike in front of Lisa. "Aren't you accompanied by your father?" rizal asked after opening the helmet cover.

Lisa shook her head. "Dad again has important business. It's me again online ojek order but I haven't got a driver."

"Bareng me yuk?" bring Rizal. Well, I hope that Sofi doesn't see Lisa going to school with her.

Lisa nodded, then she climbed into Rizal's bonnet. Not long after, the Rizal motorbike drove back. This is actually one of Lisa's plans. I don't know what Sofi's reaction would be if she knew this, Lisa had to be mentally prepared.

"Lis, you'll be down next to the school. Let Sofi not see us" said Rizal loud enough for Lisa to hear him.

Lisa brought herself closer. "Why? I'm not afraid of Sofi. Just go straight into the parking lot."

This makes Rizal groggy. He seems to be at a loss for words. He wants her to agree with Lisa but she is afraid that Sofi will make trouble with Lisa again.

"But...?"

Lisa brought her head closer until her chin was now right over Rizal's shoulder. "Kak Rizal is calm. Nothing's gonna happen. Don't do things Rizal doesn't want to do."

Rizal looked at Lisa for a moment. It felt like he was focusing on Lisa's gaze at the time but he had to focus more on the morning streets that were quite crowded.

Not long after that, they arrived at school. Rizal motor glides smoothly into the parking lot.

It was like hearing the alarm of a danger sign telling Sofi. Sofi appears when Lisa gets off Rizal's bike.

"Lo's a really weird girl." Sofi pulls Lisa's hand to keep her away from Rizal. "Not quite the same God, also deketin Rizal!"

"Then What's Sofi? A bucin?!"

"Lo?!!" Sofi intends to slap Lisa but Rizal holds her hand.

"Sofi, I brought Lisa together." Rizal pulls Sofi away.

"Rizal, you forgot our deal."

"No! So please, don't bother Lisa anymore."

Lisa was still standing, watching Sofi and Rizal walk away and heard arguments.

Isn't it really Sofi's sister? But all this time Brother Sofi was so blatantly attacking. Did he do it from behind?
