IF YOU ARE A FOOL

Recognition

Rahardian POV

Finally brave too Johan appeared in front of Kayra.

I kept quiet, wanting to see how much he could keep his promise.

Unexpectedly, there was still fear in Kayra. Fuck is Johan, he usually makes plans that can give a heavy blow to Kayra. Just be careful if Kayra experiences trauma. Apologies are not enough.

I am a man who has anger. Moreover, the woman I have loved so much was made to cry so badly. That calculation I must have done.

The next day after I heard Kayra's story, I went straight to Johan's house.

It just so happened that I came to Johan himself who opened the door.

There was a woman sitting with her on the porch bench, and I knew it was Nahla, Kayra's sister.

No wonder if there is Nahla at Johan's house, I already know what the closeness of the two families. So I'm ordinary.

It's just that sometimes comes to my mind, know not well Nahla with what happened to Kayra?

"hay" Johan greeted me briefly.

Without further ado I immediately raised his collar. And a fist almost landed on his face, but I paused.

I'm pretty sure he knows what I mean by coming.

"relax bro, relax" he said.

"what, relax? after what you did to Kayra?"

"i knew you were coming Dian" Johan let go of my hand on his shirt.

"let's have a chat in the dalem" she led me to follow her.

The three of us walked to the back garden. The three, because Johan took Nahla along.

While me and Nahla, just smiling at each other at a glance. My relationship with Kayra's other family is not much different, not too close. It can even be said to be cute.

"i was sorry" Johan said. And I just smiled wryly hearing her.

"i should be sorry for Kayra. It doesn't happen in caves.

Loe know, how many days Kayra cried because of what you did?! " i went back on the blackboard to hear an apology from Johan that was so light.

"Dian, control yourself. There's Nahla" Johan gestured.

Looks like my arrival is not right, but it's wet. Responsibilities.

"after what you did with Kayra, are you still this calm?

And you Nahla, do you know anything about all this? " this time I looked at Nahla.

Nahla nods.

Crazy, his own sister can play with his brother's life.

"Your crazy" spontaneously said the word.

"not that Di, I'm not that crazy for Kayra.

You forget that I was the one who always tried to take care of her, protect her, make her happy, even when you and your mother hurt Kayra!

You think I'm just pretending to love Kayra, after my long wait.

You think I'm happy, see Kayra leave with tears?

You think I intentionally did that to my?

I'm not that depraved Di. You know me enough, right? we've been friends for over a year" after what he's done, he's still in the name of friendship.

"continue... for what motive is loe lasain all the same Kayra? what's in it for you" My heart is still heating up, let alone knowing that Nahla was involved in this incident.

"sister Dian, calm down. Don't let old man Jo hear for example suddenly come" and, getting hotter with the defense of Nahla.

"you too Nahla, can ya play your own brother's feelings"

"not that way! That's why it's scary first" Johan defended Nahla.

"i'm quite aware of what I did to Kayra. I'm not a jerk Di.

I did that, so Kayra could stay away"

"away from you saying, after what Kayra did for you all this time? " I was once again astonished by what Jo said.

"sister Dian, calm down first sister" Nahla, she can be as calm as it is knowing her sister was played by Johan.

"all because I know, Kayra's too good. He's a stubborn man in the good. He won't stop fighting until what he's up to is successful.

And you know what that means?

He'll keep coming to me. Maybe I'm happy for a moment, and get excited again. But it's the same as living in a dream. Everything feels beautiful. But when I wake up, everything will just disappear. Because her heart is for you, and her life choices are with you.

Do you know how my heart breaks?

I don't want to live in the shadows. It took me a while to heal my wounds, but with Kayra near me, they never heal.

I just want Kayra to stay away, I want Kayra to hate me" Johan said.

"yes, my friend, that's all on my advice. Makes sister Kayra hate brother Jo by herself.

But I don't know if Jo's gonna use it that way". Nahla continues Johan's explanation. But his tone of voice weakened at the end of the sentence.

While I could only silently digest Johan's words. Between yes and no to believing his words.

But there is also a point in what he said.

"let alone his arrival at the request of the mother. It was certain that he would not have been easy to just leave, if I had just told him with words.

Relax, I will never again be a shadow of your togetherness.

But remember, Kayra's happiness is ABSOLUTE. Just once you waste her, I'm the first one who will take her away from you! " There was emphasis at the end of the sentence, even until Johan lifted the front collar of my shirt.

"urusin was your mother, before taking Kayra too far" Johan's hand came off. And I understand, there's Johan's anger there.

Then Johan left me and Nahla. Mugkin he needs time to reorganize the feelings. As a man, I admit. He was gentle enough to admit defeat.

"Sister Dian, I'm sorry. And please, don't tell Kayra about any of this.

I know he might be hurt by this. But Dian is the cure.

I know enough, sister Kayra, enough of her sadness all this time. Sis Dian is the one who always makes my sister rich. But Kayra can never really hate her sister. In her little heart she has love.

And when sister Kayra will start to get her own happiness, there is still a shadow of brother Jo's name in her mind.

He's afraid of hurting Jo's feelings. But he also could not escape from Dian's sister.

I think now is a good time, brother. Fight for sister Kayra faced sister's family, if indeed sister Dian love same sister Kayra.

About Brother Jo, God willing I can cope. It's just that all this time our parents thought I was 'small'. And the little boy knows nothing. So that I was never involved in this.

If I had known from the beginning, maybe Kayra didn't have to sacrifice her energy and time to come here. And yesterday's event didn't have to happen.

I'm taking Kayra's sister, Dian's sister"

Again I can just be quiet. I feel like I'm being tutored by two guys this afternoon.

Trying to digest all of Johan's words is also Nahla.

In my mind, I can only pray, may this be their support for my and Kayra togetherness.

Johan no longer shows up to see us. I finally got to Nahla. And Johan's parents haven't come home either, so I can waltz away without any morning ado.
