Chapter 47: Under the same umbrella

...🌸 Happy reading, and healthy always 🌸...

''Ren?'' Mira sat down in front of Iren. Iren took a deep breath. The wound he had suffered a few years ago. Should he reopen the wound? Iren looked at his best friend's face, then threw his breath back.

''Don't do Ren's breathwork, you haven't brushed your teeth after eating durian fruit, '' said Mira hitting Iren's shoulder slowly. Iren who had been trying to calm himself even immediately laughed back and forth because of hearing Mira's words.

''Why did you reject Gio Ren's love statement? Isn't Gio a good man? I also saw you getting comfortable with his presence, right? I didn't mean to interfere in your good business. But you're my best friend Ren. By seeing you happy, it has made me very happy as well. Is there something you're hiding from me, Ren? Because I felt that ever since Gio told me about his mother back at the store, your attitude has changed. You often do not focus and often daydream. I thought I was the only one who felt the change in your attitude, but when Gio asked me, I began to believe that there was something you were hiding from me, Ren, said Mira. And suddenly the atmosphere became very serious.

''There's nothing I need to hide from you Mir, let's just say, maybe me and Gio aren't meant to be together. But Mira saw that Iren's hands were interlocked, indicating that he was hiding something.

''You're not very good at lying to Ren. If you don't want to say it already. I won't force you either. I will patiently wait for you to tell me this myself, Mira holds both of Iren's shoulders and looks into his best friend's eyes.

''Forgive me Mir, I didn't mean to hide it. Because I'm not ready to tell it yet, Iren's inner.

''If Gio asks later, please just answer if we might not be a match. Tell him to find a better woman than me, Mir. I'm sure people as kind and gentle as Gio, definitely won't be hard to find a good woman for him. Please advise yes, so that he does not find out why I rejected him, because this is for our common good, Iren asked Mira. Mira nodded in understanding, they embraced.

''Oh yes Ren, later I can not help you until afternoon, because later in the afternoon I have to go home and come with my husband to the city to buy the ingredients for Ren's restaurant, ''' said Mira.

''Tumben you want to help your husband, usually do not want to know the affairs of the restaurant Mir, Iren quipped his best friend. Because so far very rarely Mira helps Dimas about the restaurant. Dimas himself also forbade it, fearing his wife's soy sauce. Because for Dimas, Mira taking care of their daughter was enough, he had promised before marrying his wife, he just wanted to make his wife and child happy. He did not want his wife too tired to take care of the house, especially to come to work. The point is he really wants to spoil his wife. Because he saw first his wife's family always spoil their daughter, he did not want when married to him, his wife suffered and tiredness.

''Diih. I wanted to know on purpose, I had been hard-earned to seduce her from last night so she would take me to Ren. I want to go home to Mom, check the house. You see the news that there yesterday there was a turnaround, Mira was afraid of her parents' empty house satronized by a thief.

''Oh yeah? Danger huh? It's good if you want a check, fearing that the house of uncle and aunt also satronized by the thief, said Iren.

Without feeling the day has arrived, Mira and Mura have been picked up by Dimas. Iren is alone now. When there is a buyer, he will be busy serving. But when the buyer is free, he just sits while playing his phone, or arranging things.

Sorenya Iren was about to go home, but suddenly it rained. Though not cloudy.

''Weird, it's not cloudy when it suddenly rains huh? Where I don't bring an umbrella anymore Iren grumbled. He went back into his shop to pick up plastic big enough to cover his head.

But just as he was about to step up, ''Deg.'' was seen someone suddenly paddled him from behind. Iren turned his body to the person to see who was holding him.

''Alif?'' Iren was surprised to find out that it was Alif who approached him and seduced him.

''Come Ren, the rain is getting heavier, '' said Alif. Iren wanted to speak again, but strong winds accompanied by rain blew on him. He nodded and walked with Alif.

After arriving at Iren's house...

''Thank you Lif, for delivering me. I'm sorry to bother you even with rain like this, said Iren while wagging his dirty pants due to splashing rain water.

''No need to thank Ren, I also happened to have a need, when I saw you about to break through the rain, eating it I came to you. If you are raining, it will hurt. Especially if you live alone. If there is no pain later, right?'' Alif.

''You are right, Iren smiled. ''You enter first Lif, you can sit first in the living room while waiting for the rain to subside, Iren intends to repay the kindness of Alif who has delivered him home. He invited Alif to come in.

''Thank you Lif, ''' Iren's inner self, then he went into his house.

On the way, Alif smiled. Sometimes he looked back at Iren's house.

The flashback

When Alif was about to go home after he bought something, Alif accidentally saw Iren who was standing in front of his shop while grumbling. Iren seemed to be back in like he was looking for something. Shortly after, Iren came out again with a large plastic bag. The plastic will be used Iren as a protector from the swift rain.

''You'll still be rained on if you wear it like that Ren, '' Alif's inner self.

Alif also approached Iren and immediately looked at him. There was a happy feeling in his heart, when the woman who was still clearly engraved his name in Alif's heart, walked together with him under the same umbrella.

Flashback off

Lately the rain is accompanied by strong winds, often hit in this village. There are even some houses that are ravaged by strong winds.

Like this morning, from last night the rain had not subsided to make Iren unable to go to the store.

Mr.din..din..din...!

The sound of a car horn from the front of Iren's house. Iren opened the door immediately.

''Oh my Mir, what are you? Your son even you take the rain, said Iren when he saw that Mira who came with his daughter Mura.

''I was bored at home alone Ren, my husband had gone from morning to the diner. The rain did not subside, I was confined to a boring house Ren, Mira grumbled.

Iren shook his head to hear the reason his best friend who brought his daughter rain to come to his house.
