Love for Airin

31.Encounters.

Airin was walking towards a cafe. A few moments ago Alda contacted her to meet him.

When entering the cafe, it looks Alda has come first. The atmosphere towards that night made the cafe quite crowded.

"I'm sorry I just arrived" said Airin.

Alda shook his head. "I've just arrived myself."

And sure enough, drinks and some snacks that Alda just message came.

"Oh yeah! I'm sorry when you got home from the hospital haven't been able to see." Because since Alda's return from the hospital he has not been able to visit.

"It's okay, I'm better too." Alda breathed out slowly, he actually invited Airin to meet because he wanted to tell his heartbreak these few days. "I want to tell you!"

Airin was silent, but then he nodded his head.

"I haven't called my girlfriend for days, rather I'm avoiding her."

"Either why since I lost my baby and saw the face of Mas Angga who was so lost, makes me really guilty."

"Because of that guilt, I tried to avoid my lover. But I can't erase my love for her either."

A drop of clear liquid just flowed down Alda's cheek. Some days of dilemma really tormenting his mind.

Airin who heard that could only take her breath in and exhale her slowly. He really did not want to interfere in their affairs.

"Do you love Mas Angga?" airin and Alda asked. "Did you love me, too, your lover?" Alda nodded at him again.

"You should be able to choose one of them, you can't have them all at once."

"Try your place in Mas Angga's position, how does it feel." Airin can only give a parable. Because all these are Alda, he does not want to force his best friend to make a decision that he thinks is right.

Alda was silent at Airin's words, but his tears were still flowing. He doesn't even care where he is now.

"If you choose your lover, then let go of Mas Angga. And vice versa, now or later surely the results will be the same. There will be a broken heart." Maybe only up to here Airin can give his opinion. "But believe me, someone who comes when you're hurt is a really sincere person" he added.

The meeting with Airin made Alda continue to think what decision he would take. It is true that what his friend said now or later will surely hurt, and now he must decide who he will defend.

This holiday will be used by Airin to find work. He was already increasingly depressed working in the Bian neighborhood.

"Where are you going?" Susi just came out of her room, and found Airin neat.

"I have a little business!" answer Airin. "I'm going first." After that he left just like that, before Lusi would question him the others.

The online motorcycle taxi driver who ordered Airin apparently was in front of his boarding house.

The goal now is to go to the city center which has many companies. Actually he wants to work anything, the important thing is not related to Bian.

Not long he had reached the place he was headed, now he just walked from one company to another. Even the store did not escape the sight of Airin, who knows someone who needs his power.

But until the day before noon, every company and store he went to was still no vacancy.

"Hhaa," Airin exhaled his coarse breath. A bottle of mineral water accompanied his fatigue. His feet were sore from walking around, but nothing was done. "Finding a job in the city turns out to be very difficult if you don't have acquaintances." Considering he used to be able to work in Bian company also because of Pras' help.

When his tiredness was gone, he went back to looking for a job again.

It stands on the shoulder of the road, waiting for a green traffic light for pedestrians.

While he was waiting, suddenly there was a man who seemed to be in a hurry.

The man was too busy with his cell phone, so he was not aware of the circumstances around.

Airin only occasionally looked at the man, but he was immediately shocked when the man was about to cross the road just like that.

"Revelation!" airin shouted as the car sped so fast towards the man. He just pulled the man's hand back, causing him and the man to just fall.

I heard the swearing of the driver who stopped. While Airin and the man were not able to listen to it well at all, because now they were both equally surprised by the incident that almost took its toll.

"When you cross, be careful, what if you get hurt!" Airin vaporized his sense of regret. Because it is cool with mobile phones, life is like there is no price.

The man just stared at Airin who continued to vent his frustration. Until he woke up first. "Thank you Miss" he said sincerely.

Airin did not care about the man's words, because even though he was nagging, his body shook because it was still in shock.
