I finished the shower. They cook together and joke. I'm sick of seeing them. What the hell is that girl here? I took the keys to the bike and left without saying goodbye. I'm hanging out at a cafe near campus. Just wanted to order a drink Vano came with his motorbike.
“Can go home for a moment? Rita has to measure your body,” Vano said flatly.
“Ngapain she has to measure my body?” I don't lose flat.
“If you do not want yes already, just wear a stage shirt for our reception later. Go home now or it's up to you. Rita comes home in an hour,” Vano said coldly.
I finally got home. Along with Vano. Rita measured my body carefully. She also asked if there was a special request for my dress at the reception.
“Not exist, it is up to you how to make,” replied me origin. Rita nodded. There was a sadness that was hard to hide on his face.
"Why not just you? Who's the bride?" ask me to make it as relaxing as possible. Vano directly attach the ear. Rita smiles. I intentionally did it in front of both of them.
"I can't force love Ma'am. If possible I also do not want the person I love to pursue the love of others without being reciprocated" replied Rita.
"Mas Vano wasn't wrong, I asked him to accept my kiss,-"
"Don't explain anything to anyone who won't listen to Rit!" cut Vano. Next is silence. The atmosphere was very awkward. Rita asks Vano to buy her a boba. Vano left without saying a word.
"I'm sad for your quarrel, believe me Mas Vano only saw you even when he was a teenager. I forced her to accept my kiss. I was saddened by the heartbreak, he only comforted me by following my wishes. My love for Mas Vano has to stop" explained Rita sadly.
"Why?" manya curious.
"Our beliefs are different. Vano grew up in the Islamic faith, while I was a Christian by birth. That's why Aunt Vinda is so against our closeness. He is happy because finally Vano took your wife," explained Rita at length. I'm a mangosteen.
"Sorry Mom, I'm sorry Rita. I promise I'll forget Vano. Accept him, thank my brother with all your heart. He's broken you keep resisting," Rita said as she clasped my hand tightly. We cuddled.
"Woo him mbak, he if the snack is a bit long, but I'm sure the wash is the same you are still a lot," said Rita with a smile, then leave home.
"Unforgotten Vano? How's the bob?" my many. Rita just smiled. Then it passed with the online object he had ordered.
Vano came home looking for Rita, but not a word said. She prefers to call Rita and then enter the room.
“I'm hungry No,” I said before he entered the room.
“There is food at meal table,” replied Vano cold.
“I want fried rice made you,” I said.
“I'm tired,” says Vano in the room. I followed him into the room.
“Trus I ate what?” I said. I am not comfortable with the cold. I want the usual Vano. The warm and the forced. Make capers and spoiled little.
“Serah, make your own fried rice. Or buy outside a lot,” Vano replied as he climbed into his bed. I was standing by his bed. A minute... two minutes.. three minutes. Sebel also me. Finally out of his room. Grab the motor key find the fried rice outside.
Just opened the door of Vano nongol behind me.
“Which key I accompany!” said ketus. We rode on my red vespa. He really doesn't eat. Just order some warm tea.
"No, can I say something?" I asked because I remembered the training ground that my friend fussed about.
"What?" replied Vano while busy looking at her phone.
"My friend and I were confused to find a place to practice. We had to practice dance, but we had no place. Can I invite my friends to practice at your house?" I'm a little scared of being scared. Vano smiling. The first smile I saw this week.
"You don't need permission for what you want to do in your house" Vano replied. He always wanted to share anything with me, and I didn't accept it. I'm feeling…. Little wicked.
“No I'm sorry,” I said.
“Create?”
“Create all my words,” I replied.
“Why apologize if that's how you feel?” ask Vano. I'm speechless. He was right, why should I care what his attitude is to me if I honestly don't love him? but why am I so sick of being cold treated with Vano?
“No, I want you to behave normally. Don't cold ketus gini. I like the ignorant, chatty, and forced Vano,” I said. Vano silently looked at me.
“You want me to be adoring to you, when my feelings are clearly unrequited?” ask Vano. I shut up, stirring the fried rice in front of me.
“Why say hungry if your rice just stirred?” continued Vano. He stood up and paid.
“Come home!” bring Vano.
“No...” I said on the motor while resting my head on his shoulders.
“Where is your helmet La?” vano asked, realizing I wasn't wearing a helmet.
“This...” I said while moving the hoe. My helmet I'm cantolin in the snore.
“Yes, I don't want to wear a helmet, it's late at night too. No police will be missing,” I said.
“Wear helmet not for fear of being ticketed by La police. Helmet is a safety device. It's not funny if your head is bumped when you just drive not far from your home. Something that should be avoided, even happened just because lazy to wear a helmet.” Vano lecture at length. I forgot that there was no traffic cop, but I was piggybacked by a cop too. I also willingly wear my helmet again.
I hugged Vano tightly. The cold air made this hug feel warm. Without me knowing Vano was driving the bike instead of coming home. We drove far away somewhere. I'm willing to be taken wherever I come close together like this.
“Po, don't sleep,” says Vano.
“I'm still attached No,” I replied while tightening my arms.
“Hold in a minute. We're almost to the beach,” Vano said. I straightened up to sit down.
“Pantai???” I said a little surprised. From the movement of his helmet I knew Vano was nodding.
We stopped at a beach. I just found out that the beach at night is cool.
“You are crazy No, what time will you be home?” I asked while amazed at the waves that glistened because of the moonlight. Vano smiling.
“I if not crazy will not be able to marry a girl who does not love me,” said Vano quite about I heard.
“Destroyed atmosphere ah,” I said protest.
“I said the fact Po,-”
“Call me Darling, if you call Po I'm rich again same way Hector!” cut me off on his words. Vano bengong a moment later laughed.
“You told me to keep bucin the same people who don't love,-” this time Vano's words were interrupted not because I cut his words, but because I stuck to his fussy lips. Vano responded to my kiss with heat.
“Hummm is this like an unofficial love statement?” ask Vano. I just shut up.
“Pronounce once with your mouth Vanila, if you love me!” said Vano while grasping my left hand.
“What is important? Usually women who are chatty with statements, why even you are chatty?” my many. Vano pouted his mouth until it advanced a few inches. Very amusing. I laughed to see it.
“You laughing? you laughing at my question?” ask Vano nyolot. He wants to get out of his seat. I pulled his hand.
“I love you Ipda Zee Vano Arkansah Son,” I said before he really moved on.
“I also love you Vanila Jean Aliee,” a smile blossomed from her thin lips.
We spent the night on a quiet beach. Accompanied by the waves and the pounding of our hearts that acknowledge each other's feelings. I also told him I don't know what was in mind. He also told me about Rita. Cousin who fell in love with her. Vano herself could not reciprocate Rita's feelings.
"If he were to change faith, I might accept it, but it was from the heart. You can't be forced because of love. God is not in the name of love, but love in the name of God. If God is in the name of love, then how long will that love last in the mortal world? Are those who embrace God in the name of love really able to survive? Is their love broken?" the story of Vano then sighed. I was amazed by the way he looked.
"He was hurt when he found out I married you. Crying until you don't stop. She said she wanted to kiss me one last time and she was willing to let go of her love. And…. I'm sorry, I granted her request" Vano said, clasping my hand in her lap. I'm a mangosteen. I trust him.
We then told him about anything. About the time I hated Vano too.
“Enemy who became a husband, not bad either,” I said. Vano laughing.
“I'm sure can take your love dear, I know also you love me,” he said full of confidence.
“Why is that?” my many.
“Because I never got a slap even though I kissed you for the first time,” he said grimly. I slapped his arm.
“Let's go home, it's early morning, tomorrow I'm sure it will be difficult to wake you up to go to college,” Vano said as he spread his arms to help me stand up.
We arrived home early. Sleep cuddling for a moment, then start each activity.
“You want me to drop off?” ask Vano in the yard.
“Gak, I come home late, there is an assignment from the lecturer, we will hold a ballet show. You can see it if you want,” I said. Vano.
"I'll replace your Mbah to watch every show you love,” Vano promised. I laugh.
“Do not trade false promises, I know your busyness, I often get false promises first from papa,” I said. Vano smiling.
“Then I add I will try very,” Vano do not want to lose. I took his hand and kissed him.
“Depart first Brother Vano,” pamitku. Vano was dumb with his stupid face. Funny, but I didn't have much time that morning. I'll just leave him. I cuss tancap gass with my bike.
Until college I saw my hape. There's a message from Vano.
‘Thank you for accepting me Dear. Thanks for calling her brother. That's so sweet.’ wrote Vano. I smile at my own smile.
