Hate the Rain

Naava woke up from his long break. He still felt dizzy thinking about the conversation between Oma, Gale and himself in the kitchen earlier. So many questions arise in him about Gale.

Why would he suddenly agree to be betrothed to a Naava?

“Honey, you're better?,” Tanya Oma gently on Naava

“Hmm, little Oma,” replied Naava weakly

“What is Oma too hasty with this decision, dear?,” asked Oma quietly on Naava

“Sorry, Oma didn't mean to make you like this. If you object, Oma can convey to this matchmaking just canceled, baby,” said Oma while stroking Naava's hair.

Naava slowly lifted his body, then sat on the bed, He gently caressed Oma's cold hand.

“By Oma being honest with Naa?,” Naava said on Oma

“Yes,madang.. About what?,” says Oma on Naava

“Why is everyone in such a hurry? Why did Oma plan that without asking Naa first? It's not like the usual Oma,” Naava said to the lowered Oma.

Oma was silent for a moment, her body was trembling, before long she shed tears.

“What did Naa offend Oma? Ah, Naava's sorry, Oma. Naa should not have to ask, Naa should follow what Oma said. Only Oma knows best for Naa from the past,” Naava said as he kissed Oma Widya's hand. Naava didn't know what to do, he just didn't want to see Oma sad.

“Honey, it looks like Oma should tell you about this. Oma checked with a doctor a few months ago. Oma's chest later often feels tight suddenly, they said Oma experienced a narrowing in the heart area,” said Oma slowly, felt her body tremble when she said. Naava shock instantly hugged Oma tightly, seemingly unwilling to lose

“What crossed Oma's mind was just you, baby. Who will accompany you if Oma has..,”

“Stop, Oma. Please, please don't say anything more. Oma must be healthy, Oma must be happy, Naa will be happy if Oma is happy,” exclaimed Naava, tears have flowed profusely from both eyes. He hugged Oma back strongly, never minded Naava how he could live without Oma.

“Only one request Oma, try to open your heart back, dear. Oma had known Gale since childhood, her parents were like Oma's own children. They are the friends of your father and mother first, they are also the ones who help Oma to finance our lives, your school, all the gifts of Father and Mother Gale,” said Oma, Naava sobbed to imagine all Oma's words. He misses his Father and Mother, the only thing he wants right now is to make Oma Widya happy

“Naa will try, Oma. Naa will try to open Naa's heart. Whether it's with Gale, or with anyone. If Naa is happy, Oma is also happy right?,” Tanya Naava on Oma

“Definitely dear,” exclaim Oma while gently rubbing Naava's head

“Come, we'll have dinner. You must be hungry, right?,” Tanya Oma on Naava

“Iya, Oma,” replied Naava

Today is Sunday, Naava's schedule of exercising running around the complex. He woke up earlier that day, wearing sports clothes, and Voila! He was really surprised when he came out of the room, passing Gale

“Where are you going?,” Tanya Gale as she spread her eyes to the head to the feet of Naava

“Morning sport. Good for our health. Every week I go around the complex, want to come with me?,” Naava

“No. For what sport, if you still often eat carelessly,” replied Gale briefly

“If you don't want to! Don't comment anything else!,” said Naava annoyed

“You went alone?,” Tanya Gale

“Iya,”

“Ya means you are crazy, haha,” Naava said

“HEH! What do you mean!,” said Gale chased after Naava who had already run out of the house first

“Daaaahhhh! Bye!,” shouted Naava while sneering from the first floor

Almost half an hour had they run around the complex. They ran like a couple who were exercising, Naava who occasionally prank Gale, gave cranky jokes, laughed loosely at the face of Gale who was upset about Naava's nosy behavior. However, still halfway through, suddenly a torrential downpour drenched the earth.

Rush Naava and Gale looking for shelter, coincidentally in the corner of the housing there is a minimarket, can be a temporary shelter, Naava thought.

“Crazy yes, but it was clear weather,” said Naava while putting his hand to the sky like rainwater

“Iya,” reply Gale briefly. He tried to find a place to sit for them both

“From sunny, suddenly rain. Strange, rich you,” says Naava spontaneously

“You mean?”

“Yes, sometimes I feel you are fierce, can suddenly warm up, then turn cold back, strange,” Naava said with a smile

“You too, weird. Like to smile yourself,” reply Gale on Naava

“Means we are a match, equally strange, haha,” said Naava who suddenly he was aware of the joke that he just made made Gale look at him seriously

“May be?,” says Gale while shrugging

“You know? I hate the rain so much,” Naava said suddenly , diverting their stiff talk

“Any, why?”

“Cast the land when it rains makes me always remember the farewell with my Dad and Mom. Every rain, I miss them, you know what it's like to miss the uncut?,” Naava asked Gale

“Hmm,” murmured Gale didn't know what to say

“Rain also reminds me of breaking up with Danang. My heart was completely broken at that time, it was raining sedans and I missed my parents, at that time also my relationship and Danang had to end,” Naava said smiling

“You still love, she?,” Tanya Gale

“I myself do not know, but my heart still hurts every time I talk about it,” replied Naava holding his body shivering in the cold

“That means you're still saving flavor. My advice is, if you haven't been able to finish your past story, don't try to start it with someone else. It will be painful for someone new if it is only used as an impingement,” said Gale nanar. Naava. What does it mean that the other story is a story with him?

Gale took off his shirt, draped it over to Naava who looked extremely cold.

“Come, we go home, the rain has subsided,” said Gale as he walked through the streets
