An Effort to Forget

 

 

I returned home with delivery by Mr. Min, when I arrived at the house I still saw Rara was there, he had not come home yet when I thought I was gone for so long, but it looks like he's here. Or I feel like time is so slow because of that.

Iqbal sent me a message and said that tomorrow he would pick me up, because tomorrow he would take Diego to the airport, he would go back there, because his vacation time was up.

Actually I feel sad also lazy, because I still remember the events of yesterday. But I feel bad for Iqbal, especially if I promise to forget him. So I agreed to his invitation.

“Lin, Do you know Diego is leaving tomorrow?!” asked Rara glanced at me.

“Iya, already. Iqbal, let's know!”

“So?” bang Rehan asked.

“So what?” I said lazily, because I knew where this conversation was going.

“Lo joined him what's wrong, Lin?” continued Rara.

“Iya, I'm leaving. Iqbal tomorrow pick me up!”

“Iqbal, not Diego!” he said while looking at each other.

“Gue has broken up with him since he got there! Oh yeah, I've been back with Iqbal.”

“Whaattt!” rara said as if surprised by it, which I think is normal. I passed from there and immediately headed for my room upstairs. By leaving those who are still busy talking about this.

Arriving in the room I went straight to the bathroom to immediately clean my body that felt sticky all day because of all day activities. After bathing and changing clothes, without warning I immediately lay my body on my comfortable soft mattress.

I'm trying to close my eyes, I need to rest so that tomorrow I can get back to work. I try to forget all this, even though sometimes the pain comes back. But anyway, I have to get through it. Anyway, it's clear we can't be together.

Someone knocked on my bedroom door, and it was as if the door was asking me to open it immediately, as it could not stand the pounding sound of someone behind the door. But I kept opening it. And it turns out it was Rara and Bang Rehan.

“Once again, disturb people to sleep!” mummy's upset.

“Rara want to stay here, Dek. I said sleep in your room aja,” sahut Bang Rehan.

“Apaan sih maen-nginap, kayak no home alone aja!” I looked at them in turn.

“By yes, Lin!” rara blinked her eyes and immediately ran into the room without waiting for my cue. It's an old habit, I really like to nag but Rara never takes my words seriously and she always ignores it. I looked at Bang Rehan and confirmed it. It would be nice to be with Rara anyway.

Today Diego will be back there again, Iqbal invites me to take him. I'm lazy, but he forced me. I finally agreed, and it's not good if I'm sad for someone who doesn't care, even though I expect a lot.

We arrived at the airport almost at the same time as Diego, he looked at me, I looked at him too, although there was nothing special there.it was just a common thing, maybe even he accidentally.

You know, trouble always comes without notice. As it is today, the plane that will be boarded by Diego was delayed the first flight to be tomorrow after tomorrow. Because the weather is not possible to make flights, yes, indeed the weather today looks cloudy and tends to drizzle but never falling heavy rain.

Iqbal asked me to come home with Diego because he said he suddenly had some urgent business outside, it looked a little annoying, how could he ask me to come home with this guy.

I was forced to comply with her request, because there was no way I would ask Bang Rehan to pick me up. I went home with Diego with him driving. We are now just the two of us because his father came home in his own car, and did not go home but went straight back to the office.

“Are you not comfortable?” revealed later.

“No, I should be able to get along with my Sister-in-law, right?!” I said as if I felt like I was insinuating her because of her treatment yesterday. Maybe you could call it an attempt at revenge. I saw he was just smiling at a glance in response to that.

“You guys dating?” said again.

“Why ask, didn't you already know! You said it yourself yesterday,” I said with my emotions mounting, even though I did not show it so much.

“You're right!” expound again.

“Let me down here,” I said.

“But, we haven't even reached.”

“I don't want to trouble my Sister-in-law, Iqbal definitely won't like it!”

“Alright,” he said then pulled his car over the side of the road, and I immediately got down from the car and passed away without saying anything, just looking at him was not.

At least this time I'm right, this is what I have to do. I have to stop this ridiculous wait. I also have to keep my promise to Iqbal. If I don't do it, I'll get hurt myself. I walked on foot after that and and waited for the taxi that would take me home.

All the way back I thought of Iqbal. What business is he in so much hurry? And asked me to come home with Diego. I tried to reach him but he didn't pick him up. Is he ignoring me now?

Bang Rehan called me and asked me when I was going home, I told him I was on my way home. But again, I think today strange things keep happening. He doesn't usually call me let alone ask when I'm coming home. Well, except when he's gonna pick me up.

It's not what I usually think. Iqbal who suddenly left, usually he would not leave me, he would definitely take me first. But ah already. When going to put my phone back in my pocket, my phone immediately rang again a sign there was an incoming message.

I'm back and it's from Diego. The contents of his message said, “Happy Birthday”. Of course, I feel all my feelings mixed right now, I feel happy, as if I was being privileged even though it was just a speech, I also feel claustrophobic.

Why did he say it when we couldn't be together. I cried because of that, because he managed to make me feel confused. Why should he say it, he shouldn't have to. I don't know what to do now? I felt like I wanted to go after him, and asked him to explain everything.

Why does he always confuse me with my own feelings? And strangely women prefer someone like this. A person who does simple but successful things makes him feel exalted. I was like that, I felt like I was so loved even though he didn't say it.
