Magic Lantern

Meet Again

Ratih's heart was beating very fast. They meet again. And Kreshna is apparently not married to Alicia.

He saw the initials but did not read them carefully. Because I'm pretty sure it's Krishna. He was pretty sure he saw the letter K instead of D. Because the digrafir looks so similar.

Why aren't they together? What happened to them? Who was Alicia's husband?

Oh God! All this time he's been hating Alicia. They thought the two would not be separated. He is a thorn in their relationship.

Trained to hold herself back from asking. Spend time with Krishna. Not thought at all. Better not find out anything. Focus on each other's lives.

After all, his intention was to take a leave of absence. For healing. Refresh himself. Not to be in a relationship with anyone. Spend time with Krishna. Big No's!

“Where are you staying?”Kreshna asked him to throw his daydream. They were enjoying Alicia's exquisite wedding reception.

Ratih chose to enjoy dim sum while Krishna took a plate of his favorite lasagna.

“At home friends.” Answer lies.

“It's worth me to your house no.”

Ratih almost choked.

“You're going to my house? For what?”

“I thought you'd stay at your house. I'd like to invite you to Alicia's wedding and reception.

Ratih did not inform his family of his arrival. Because I don't want to burden them. He also wants to be free to spend his time alone. Didn't think Krishna was looking for him. Even though he could think. It could be that Krishna went to see him. He didn't want that to happen.

Because there are stories. Before they got married. They said good-bye. And he did not want to open the wound that he had buried for a long time. Thoughts before she knew that it was not Krishna who became Alicia's husband.

Listen to some stories from some of his friends. Their former lover who is about to marry someone else. Looking for them to say goodbye and remember the sweet times. Which they will end forever. He didn't want that to happen to him.

Will not stand to let go of Krishna in such a way. It is better that they never meet again. Until whenever.

“You daydream again!” Kreshna laughed crisply.

The face of Ratih was red. His face was like a boiled crab. Her cheeks are warming.

“Why is your face always like that?” Kreshna developed her smile.

“Why with my face?”

“It's like wearing a blush all over your face if you're holding a shame.”

Ratih's face warmed up again and Krishna's laughter was heard again.

“Why do you laugh so much?” Ask Ratih.

“Of course, because I'm happy.”

“Why are you happy?”

“Because..” Krishna's voice hangs.

“Karena?” Repeat the Train Ratih.

“Hmm, because Alicia has found her heart.” Kreshna.

“You're happy for Alicia? Really?” Ask Ratih.

“Do I lie?” Kreshna.

“I consider it like my brother and best friend but you never trust it.”

“You are so dependent on him. You always look for it when you need a friend to talk to or whatever it is.”

“You're not jealous right?”

“Of course not! Why do I jealous you ?”

“Where do I know? Could it be habit? Or indeed the innate character of birth. Like a heart defect. The difference is a feeling disorder.”

Ratih's laughter broke, “ You could have!”

“I'm glad to see you laughing!” Kreshna said, “You daydream again!” Sahut Kreshna laughed crisply.

The face of Ratih was red. His face was like a boiled crab. Her cheeks are warming.

“Why is your face always like that?” Kreshna developed her smile.

“Why with my face?”

“It's like wearing a blush all over your face if you're holding a shame.”

Ratih's face warmed up again and Krishna's laughter was heard again.

“Why do you laugh so much?”

“Of course, because I'm happy.”

“Why are you happy?”

“Because..” the sound hangs.

“Karena?” Sahut Ratih's.

“Hmm, because Alicia has found her heart.”

“You're happy for Alicia? Really?”

“Do I lie?”

“I consider it like my brother and best friend but you never trust it.”

“You are so dependent on him. You always look for it when you need a friend to talk to or whatever it is.”

“You're not jealous right?”

“Of course not! Why do I jealous you?”

“Where do I know? Could it be habit? Or indeed the innate character of birth. Like a heart defect. The difference is a feeling disorder.”

Ratih's laughter broke, “ You could have!”

“I'm glad to see you laughing!” Kreshna.

Train to put the plate. Walk away from Kreshna.

“Where are you going?”

“I want to eat martabak.”

“I'm coming.”

“Spend your food first.”

“It's over!” Kreshna put the rest of the lasagna on a table filled with food. Walk with the Ratih.

“Since when do you like martabak?” Ask Ratih.

“Since now. Who says I don't like martabak?”

“Maybe I remembered wrong.” Radih.

“I mean not my favorite food. But that doesn't mean I don't want to eat martabak.”

“Serah.” Radih.

“Can we meet?” Ask Kreshna. The tone is hopeful.

“Cotably can.” Sahut Ratih's.

Kreshna's face sparkled happily, “ When and where? I can take you home to your friend's house huh?”

“I'm sorry. After the reception I have been waiting for a travel invitation to the airport.”

“You're straight back?” Disappointment on Krishna's face.

“My work piles.”

“Take travel means I can't drive you?”

“It's full. If there is a place. Could have.” The spirit of Ratih lied.

“I think we can spend time together. Although briefly.”

“My work. I'm sorry.”

“Yeah! Neverminds. Next time.”

“Next time!”

Kreshna followed Ratih. They enjoyed continuing the dishes while chatting. Enjoy meatballs, siomay, mpek-mpek, tempura, shaved ice, various pudding and cakes.

It's been an hour since they were in the reception room.

“Kresh! I'm going to the toilet first huh?” Pamit Ratih's.

Kreshna nodded her head, “Don't you take long huh?”

“Ok!” Trained developed her smile. Makes Krishna feel like his heart has stopped beating. His eyes looked fixed. Enjoy every pull of Ratih lips that sculpt a smile very beautifully.

Train to walk away. Leaving Kreshna. Towards toilet. Confirming the existence of Kreshna. Walk away from the toilet to the back exit.

Looking at Kreshna from a distance before walking out, “I'm sorry! Not to play hard to get. Our relationship is going nowhere. I don't want to be hurt and disappointed anymore. I always pray for your happiness. I hope we never meet again.Forever.”

Trained to walk out the door. Walk away and enter a taxi outside the building. Ask the taxi driver to take her to the hotel where she is staying.
