Kei And Layla
Chapter 32: Apology



A week later, Doctor Adrian finally allows Layla to go home. Because Layla's condition has recovered as usual. After Doctor Adrian gives health tips to Layla on Raiden. Raiden began to complete all his letters and administration. Layla and Raiden leave the hospital for Layla's home.


Thirty minutes passed. Raiden and Layla finally reach Layla's yard. Layla opened the car door and got out. He looked in front of his house and spread out his hands, his face looking up at the sky and breathing deep air. "Finally, I can breathe fresh air" Layla smiled.


"Layla's gang!" greet Mbok Darmi and Mang Usman who had stood in front of Layla and immediately hugged Layla tightly.


"Thank you Den Rai, he has taken care of Neng Layla" said Mang Usman when he saw Raiden coming out of the car door.


Raiden looked at Mang Usman.


"Yes Mang, we are family" Raiden replied.


Hearing Raiden's words, Layla turned her head towards Raiden and hugged him tightly.


"Thank you" he looked up at Raiden.


"Yes the Princess" Raiden replied smiling, his hand pinched Layla's nose in a fit of anxiety.


"Let's go to Neng, Den Rai" said Mbok Darmi .


"Yes Mbok" Layla replied. Then they went into the house.


"Oh yes Neng, yesterday afternoon Mbok saw Nak Kei standing outside the rain house gate, just as Mbok wanted to invite Nak Kei in, he had disappeared" said Mbok Darmi while preparing food and drinks on the table.


"Deg!"


'My guess is right, yesterday Kei came to the hospital, what happened to you Kei.' Layla said in her heart.


"Start out loud." Raiden flicked his hand in front of Layla's dreamy face.


"Ah, not really. I just..?


" What's all? just thinking about Kei. Didn't you?" kei asked half-jealous.


"What the hell" Layla answered, her hand outstretched to pinch Raiden's waist. But Layla Raiden's hand is held.


"Honestly, I'm okay." Raiden stared at Layla. He likes the most lies.


Layla lowered her head and pulled her hand into silence. There are times when Layla does not have to say anything to others, even if it is with the closest person. If silence is better able to mean everything why should we talk?


"Layla, I know what it's like to love someone, I know it's hard to forget the person we love. But you also don't have to lie to others just to please others" Raiden said, slipping hair in Layla's ears.


"You know, honesty is bitter, lies are bad. But for those who understand the nature of love. He will be able to accept all the opium bitterness of life" Raiden said again.


Layla was stunned to hear all of Raiden's words. "I'm sorry" Layla looked at Raiden.


"You don't have to apologize, there's no apology in the family. Each other will understand each other." Raiden smiled with a grin as he played to his two eyebrows.


"That smart ass, this is feeling." Layla pinches Raiden's waist.


"Awww, sakiitt!" Raiden shouted holding his waist. Mbok Darmi runs from the kitchen towards Layla and Raiden.


"What's up Neng? sick again?" mbok Darmi looked at Layla.


"No Mbok, the Princess is fiercely rumoured". replied Raiden chuckling.


" Oh, kirain Mbok Neng Layla is sick again" said Mbok Darmi, shaking his head, sighing long at the two and Mbok decided to return to the kitchen. Layla and Raiden looked at each other for a moment and laughed together.


Happiness does not lie outside, if happiness is present in the soul there is no falsehood.


***


'If the flower of love fall envelops a heart that feels lonely, and fades with falling leaves. There is no most beautiful and painful thing, when loving before sucking love itself.' said Layla in her heart to look far into the past that has passed.


'When first love is present and reigns in the heart, time goes on with your false shadow. For a second I don't want to be separated from you. Love is not a sin that must be washed with water. Love born of purity will always be remembered throughout the ages.' Layla said in her heart, she smiled her hand outstretched as butterflies with different patterns flew low and perched on her fingers. As if to answer all Layla's heart phrases.


"Yes, I'm crazy for your love, you radiate your beauty and I'm crazy before I see it" Layla murmured softly, then the butterfly flew back to spread love for lovers.


"Lalinaa!!"


Layla was shocked when a familiar voice was heard. He stood up and looked around looking for the source of the sound. Layla's beautiful eyes were fixed on Kei's figure standing in shabby clothes, her hair falling apart. He looks like a desperate man. Finally Layla decided to meet him and rushed out of the house to meet Kei, her lover.


"Key?"


Layla looked at Kei from head to toe. There was a sense of wanting to hug and calm him, but he was afraid. Because there is another heart when it knows it will cause jealousy. Layla just stood in front of Kei a meter away.


"Layla" said Kei slowly.


Kei looked at Layla with great guilt, as he thought he had betrayed Layla's love, having desecrated her great love. Kei bowed for a moment before he spoke.


"I'm sorry Layla."


Layla frowned not understanding Kei's apology, as Layla remembered, Kei never made a mistake with her even though Kei had married another woman.


"I'm sorry?"


Kei nodded his head, he stepped forward a few steps closer to Layla. His heart thumped fiercely when he was close to Layla. There was a longing and guilt that radiated through Kei's dark eyes.


"I've betrayed our love, I've tarnished our love Layla, I'm sorry. I'm sorry."


Layla lowered her head and remained silent for quite a while. Layla understood now what Kei's apology meant. Layla raised her face and smiled.


"You don't have to apologize Kei."


Kei is stunned to hear Layla's answer, thinking that Layla will be angry and hate him. But beyond Kei's expectations, Layla's answer makes Kei ask questions. Does Layla no longer have the love they once held?


"You're not mad Layla? you don't hate me?"


Layla smiled again and extended her hands forward and formed a picture of 'Love'.


"Pure love is present in the deepest heart, the majesty of love will not be tarnished by anything. Even though the body is crushed by wolves."


At once Kei's body and heart were broken by all the purity of love Layla had, she dropped her body on the ground. Letting Kei's body be doused in the rain that suddenly fell as if answering all Kei's doubts about the love that Layla has. Kei's body and clothes were wet with the increasingly heavy rain. His heart was shaded by the rain and the magnitude of Layla's love for him.


"I love you Layla, I love you."


Layla smiled a step back. With both hands fixed outstretched forward forming 'Love'.


"Go home Kei."


Kei got up and stood up, rubbing his face wet with the water. He smiled at Layla. Then turned around and ran out of the courtyard without saying another word to Layla.


Everything Layla showed, the rainwater that the sky dropped was enough to give all the answers to Kei's grief and guilt. All of them give back the firmness of his love that was shaken.


Layla lowered both her hands slowly staring at Kei's back until it was gone from sight.


'Love you don't have to express Kei, let the heart speak because 'feel' never lies to us.' Layla said in her heart.


Layla turned around and went back into her house, and changed all her clothes that were wet with rain.
