" Once again... Sorry, I'm sorry, Dit... "
Sara seemed to be begging Ditto sincerely.
" If when I first immediately decetin you, do not deketin Rere first, all this will not happen huh... I think I'm the one who should apologize to you, same Rere. "
" For me, it's not a problem... Moreover, I also have a husband, not a burden in the future. We just lack communication and are not open to each other from the beginning. Thanks to you, Ryu... "
" I didn't do anything... "
" You.. have done so many things for me. Once more... Thanks though. "
Aretha clasped her husband's hand tightly. For the first time, for some reason, her heart trembled looking at her smiling husband. Sara looked at them. There is a dislike for Aretha's view of Ryuzaki.
" Sara's... Do you want to consider my feelings ? "
Ditto touched Sara's back hand gently. Sara's attention was distracted. Aretha and Ryuzaki stared at Ditto and Sara alternately.
" I-i... "
Sara looked confused. Feel worried. His eyes met Aretha's. It was as if asking Aretha for help to make a decision. Aretha understands.
" Dit, I said, go with Santuy. Right now Sara seems to take some time because of some past and recent events. I thought you could be where she studies and shares when she needs an opinion. You yourself kaaannn. mmmm, I should also start my new life as well. "
" Yes, okay, as a friend is better.... "
Ditto nodded while making a smile. Sara seemed awkward accepting Ditto's smile for her. Aretha and Ryuzaki hope, this is a new beginning for Sara to be happy.
Agreed, the four of them left the roof with a smile. Only, Sara was the only one who smiled in a forced manner.
2 weeks later...
" Today's schedule to midwife ? "
Ryuzaki asked while thrusting a glass of warm chocolate milk at Aretha. Aretha accepted it without taking her eyes off the television show this morning. A reality show.
" Yes, are you friends with me ? "
He answered and then sipped his chocolate milk. Ryuzaki sat down beside his wife. Enjoy the television show.
" okay... I think I should get your first schedule to the midwife huh. "
" If you are busy, don't also gapapa. I just want to do a repeat pregnancy test. Yesterday morning test pack is also the same, but more confident aja test again to the midwife. "
" Gapapa I'll just. For the beloved wife... "
CUP !!!
A gentle kiss landed on Aretha's cheek.
" Habits... "
Aretha said while glancing at the husband. The one who looked back with a smile.
TING TONG !!! TING TONG !!!
The doorbell rang.
" So early in the morning, who came... "
Ryuzaki murmured as he got off the sofa, stepping towards the door.
" Pagiiiiiii..... !!!!! "
Zoya screams as soon as the door is opened by Ryuzaki. Behind Zoya was Ella and also Nasya who immediately stormed inside with great excitement. Ryuzaki shook his head at the exasperation of his wife's companions.
As he was about to close the door, his eyes suddenly found something downstairs right in front of his feet. An envelope.
Ryuzaki crouched down, observed a white envelope before him and seconds later picked it up.
" Dear Rere's... "
Read it in the left corner of the upper envelope.
Make Rere ?
Letter ?
From whom ?
Ryuzaki flipped the envelope. Blank. No sender name.
" Re, there's a letter... "
Ryuzaki said after closing the door and approached the wife who was busy chatting with her friends.
Hearing Ryuzaki's words, the four of them fell silent and turned their heads. Staring into an envelope in Ryuzaki's hand.
" Letter ? From whom ? "
Aretha asked curiously as she took the envelope.
" There's no sender. It's at the door, on the floor. "
Answer Ryuzaki. The three friends of Aretha looked at each other.
" We were at your door, there was no letter. "
Ella said, followed by a nod of Zoya's head.
" Ah, maybe tucked under the door sometime huh... Out of sight, and just as we entered earlier, Ryu just ngeh... "
Nasya said guess.
" It could be. "
Ryuzaki. Aretha looked at the writing on the envelope. His eyes widened.
Written by Sara !!!
Immediately torn the edge of the envelope. There's a piece of paper in it. Aretha.
" Who, Re ? "
Almost simultaneously, Ryuzaki, Ella, Nasya, and Zoya asked. But Aretha did not answer. His eyes were fixed on the letter.
Re.. I'm sorry.
I can't see you being happy without me.
I've tried to be happy without you, but I can't, Re.
My eyes are on you who always smile for your husband.
My heart aches when you are always happy with your husband.
I'm sorry, Re.
I always loved you, only you.
I still can't share you with others.
Sara.
Finished reading, Aretha looked limp. Ryuzaki takes the letter from Aretha's hand. Read it with others.
" Sara ! "
Suddenly Aretha shouted and without saying a word more, straight up from the sofa, intending to leave. Ryuzaki deftly caught his hand.
" What's up ? What does this letter mean ? "
" Ryu, spit ! Cepetan to Mother's house now !!! "
" But ulainin du... "
" THERE IS NO TIME !!! "
" Okey ! Okey ! '
Aretha did not wait long, snatching the key of her beloved motorbike hanging right beside the door of her room. And immediately out of his apartment rushed towards the basement floor. Where his favorite motorcycle parked for so long.
In a split second, Aretha drove off leaving Ryuzaki and his 3 best friends in a frenzy chasing after him.
" Come on, hurry ! Which car are you in, Ryu ? "
Zoya quickly resuscitates the others to catch up with Aretha. Ryuzaki ran towards his parked car, not far from Aretha's motorbike.
The Danu Sutedjo Residence
" Mba Rere ? "
Mang Kasdi was quite surprised to see the arrival of Aretha.
" Where is Sara, Mang ? Mother ? Daddy ? "
Aretha who got off the motorcycle immediately asked Mang Kasdi who immediately stopped his activities washing the car.
" Mother's father was at the back table, having breakfast. Mba Sara's still in her kayak room. "
Answer Mang Kasdi. Aretha half ran into the house. And speeding her way up to Sara's room.
" Re ? "
Mother who had just entered the kitchen, saw the figure of Aretha who ran. Curiously followed him.
" Sara !!! "
Shouted Aretha while opening the door of the room in front of her. Locked up.
" Saraa !!!! Open pintuuu !!!! "
Aretha's screams began to look anxious.
" Rere, what's up ? Early in the morning, the kayak... "
Tegur Mother who was standing right behind Aretha.
BRRUUKKK !!! BRUUKKK !!!
" The re !! "
Mother was surprised to see Aretha who suddenly tried to break down the door of Sara's room.
" SARAAAA !!! "
Aretha seemed to ignore Mother's reprimand.
" Hey, what's going on ? Rere ? Mother ? "
This time I came with a face full of question marks. Mang Kasdi who had just come was also curious.
" Buruan, Dad ! Break the door !! Moppet !! Ntar Rere !!! "
Pull Aretha to the Father. Seeing Aretha's anxious face, Dad followed the child's request. With Mang Kasdi, break down Sara's room door.
BRRUUKK !!! BBRRUUKKK !!!
" Sara hasn't left the room yet, Bun ? "
Ask Aretha who chose to stand next to Mother, and embrace Mother.
BBRRUUKKK !!!! BRRUUKKKK !!!
" What happened ? You make Mother anxious.... "
GGUUBBBRRAAAKKKK !!!!!
The door to the room is open. Father and Mang Kasdi slashed down into the room.
" Sara's... "
Aretha muttered as she went inside, passing by Father and Mang Kasdi.
Aretha's eyes were wide. Right on the bed, Sara seemed to be motionless as if asleep. On his left wrist, there were some deep cuts. Just under his hands, on the floor, a puddle of blood that had partially begun to dry up.
" Sara !!! No !!! Nooo !!!!! "
Aretha screams hysterical. Mother immediately pulled him into her arms, holding Aretha from approaching.
" r.... Rere.... "
Lirih Bunda tried his hardest to embrace Aretha who was still rebelling.
" No, Bun.... Nggaakk.... It's Rere's fault, it's Rere's... "
Said Aretha who grew increasingly limp and fell on the floor.
I approached Sara who was still motionless. Putting 2 fingers into Sara's nostril. Dad's forehead wrinkled.
" Mang, please call the nearest hospital... "
Said Father. Mang Kasdi rushed out of the room.
" Yeahhh..... "
Aretha's voice was so pitiful. Mother looked at Father curiously. Dad shook his head. A second later, the tears fell.
" Sara, Dad... Sara... Wake up Sara, Yaahhh... "
Aretha hugged the father's leg, wiggling him to turn towards Sara lying down. I just kept silent, unable to say a word.
" Re, already... "
" No, Bun... No ! "
" r... "
Ryuzaki came, looking around. Seeing the wailing Aretha, her sobbing father-in-law.
" R, Rere... "
" Go !!! No !!! If I hadn't married you, Sara wouldn't have gone !!! Sara will not leave.... "
Aretha refused the embrace of her husband. Ella, Zoya and Nasya also feel the sadness of the friend.
Ryuzaki keeps forcing her to hug Aretha.
" I'm sorry.... Excuse me.... Excuse me... "
For some reason, only those words were spoken from Ryuzaki's lips. Aretha weakened, crying so hard in the arms of her husband.
You always smile when you play at my place.
You were laughing when we were joking with Ryu and the others.
You changed, changed a lot.
You seem to always be hepi, Sara.
You said you wanted to learn to accept Ditto.
You said you wanted to feel the marriage.
Ye... Ye...
Why are you lying ???
You are not an artist to act !
Why do you endure all your own pain ???
Why are you this decade ????
Aretha kept crying. Many questions, many stories, but can only be expressed in the heart. Sara's love is really dead love. But dead love is just misplaced. Aretha felt a great loss. A friend and a brother.
Goodbye, Sara...
Loved you.
