Looking for Love for My Son

Familiar Conversations.

Out of nowhere, although a little forced, Joe found Via who was relaxing alone enjoying the fresh air on the edge of the lake. Her brother and sister-in-law enjoyed playing with Keenan. Because this is a rare moment in the Hermawan family, it never hurts to take advantage of it. At least Keenan can still feel if he has a real family. But Kevin was not among them. Because for him whatever his family is doing right now it's all fake. Just as camouflage to look awesome in the eyes of others. And Kevin, he hates that.

Joe sat next to Via. They were like strangers who had just met. After a long time Joe has been trying to reconcile with his past. Because he was aware that hatred and resentment would only hurt all parties. No exception to himself. And to prove if he has made peace then with a sincere heart he met Via, invited him to speak.

At first he doubted whether Via would accept his good intentions, and it turned out that Via was willing. Grateful, his efforts were not in vain. The second view, straight looking nanar to the opposite end of the lake with the contents of each mind. They are reluctant to look at each other. This is because their previous relationship was not good.

" How are you? Joe opened the conversation not because he wanted to just make small talk. It could not be denied if he was a little curious about the state of Via all this time. Of the many bad things that Via has done in the past, there are still some good things worth remembering.

" As you can see. My situation is fine.!" answer Via as if at the same time trying to stay good. However Joe was once someone special in Via's heart. Long ago, yes once. If asked for now? Only Via can answer that.

" Why are you alone....??? Joe actually wants to continue the question ".Where is your husband and children?" stopped though. His heart held him back from continuing. Who knew the question would even later offend him Via.

But Via could understand the meaning of the question.

" I'm not married yet. So I don't have any children and her husband.!" via's answer slightly shook Joe's heart. He did not expect that until now Via has not married at all. Then suddenly in Joe's heart infiltrated a feeling of guilt. Recalling her past atrocities against Via. Even if what he did was to avenge Via's evil treatment of Eva. But all that was done by Via was simply because of his blind love for Joe.

" Why aren't you married? Joe continued his question. But now his gaze has turned to Via. Via's face still looks young and beautiful.

" Not found the right one in the heart.!" Via replied casually. Whether it's honest or just a joke can't be guessed.

" And how are you?" Via asked back.

" It seems we are not much different!" joe answered with a smile. To him it was a little funny. Even Via smiled.

"Nearly 20 years have passed, many things have changed. But it looks like you're still the same as you used to be!" Joe looked down for a moment and then turned his gaze around the lake and ended by looking into the eyes of Via who was also looking at him. Their eyes looked at each other. Make Via smile blush. Via then threw his gaze across the lake.

" What has not changed? The age is getting older. Wrinkles started appearing everywhere.!" Via answered like a common answer in general.

"You're praising or mocking?" Via tries to clarify the meaning of Joe's words.

" Do I look like I'm mocking?" Joe asked back.

" That's what I don't know. Because as I remember you never praised anything about me. Because it seems to you that there is nothing to praise from me?" reply Via which sounds like sarcastic words and makes Joe feel insinuated. But if you think back to the past, Joe does not seem to ever praise Via though. Of course Via asked that.

" It turns out that I'm that bad to you huh!?" with a feeling of guilt.

" Not really. Only our voices may not understand each other and understand each other. All that happens is a protracted misunderstanding. And finally just leaving wounds and hatred between us.!" Via this time sounded wise. Joe who heard it was even surprised, not expecting those words to come out of a Via. Time can change a person's life. Relying on yourself willing to accept change or stick to self-selfishness.

" This time you did indeed change Vi, Now you are more mature and wise. And your words are true. We were too selfish at the time. Don't listen to anyone else.!" Joe admitted his mistakes in the past.

A moment later they were silent to each other. They fantasize in their own minds. The fragments of past memories one by one began to appear in their minds and minds. Like playing the memory of a long-worn movie hidden in a corner of a long uninhabited heart space.

The originally bright blue sky was suddenly dark wrapped in cloudy clouds. The breeze turned into a strong wind and it rained down heavily. Tents that originally stood firm were not strong enough to withstand the loud roar of the wind. One by one the falls are unable to resist the strong wind. Fortunately around the lake there are some pendopos that are deliberately built which are usually used by those who come not to bring tents. Grego, Eva, Gio and Gia seem to have saved themselves by taking shelter in one of the pendopos.

So too with the Hermawan Family. They take refuge in a pendopo not far from the pendopo where Grego and his family. While Joe spontaneously pulled the wrist Via intended to take him to take shelter from the raindrops are quite heavy. But because the Founders were far enough away from their place, Joe took Via to take shelter under a small gazebo on the edge of the lake.

Although still exposed to rainwater seepage, at least still protected from the rush of rainwater. The distance between the two of them was very close. Joe reluctantly held both shoulders of Via and brought closer the body of Via to get closer to him so that his body was not drenched in rain water. Via who actually felt a little awkward and embarrassed, could not resist the treatment of Joe who was suddenly so considerate. Joe himself did not seem to realize what he had done. In his current burden is just to want to protect Via so as not to get wet and cold. Moreover, looking at Via clothes that are quite thin and short-sleeved.

It turns out that Joe has a soft side and attention to others that he seems to be hiding. Or maybe because you haven't found someone who wants to be treated like that. Via who felt touched by Joe's treatment made his heart pound more than usual. How not, when a man who was once loved, once filled the recesses of his heart so deeply, now gives a very touching attention.

In his mind Via tried to shake off the feeling, but his heart was unable to resist it. The heart and mind may contradict but ultimately the action shown is incapable of rejecting the conscience. Via also gave a smile. And it was a happy smile that was first painted from Via's red lips. After all these years, this time.

That feeling never goes away. Although he had tried to forget it, but the feeling was not really lost. He slept for so long. And now, just because of a single gentle touch of attention, that feeling began to awaken from his sleep. Such is the power of a feeling called love. The day is so great and powerful. When I don't know what to do. Angry at the rain that has made them wet and cold in this place or even grateful because its presence has made them closer and warmer like today? Via closed his eyes and enjoyed the current atmosphere. Cold but warm.
