Missing Scraps

38. The Eps 37

After Reza and Keina's wedding, Galang takes Zahra somewhere . Zahra was fascinated to see the scenery there. Romantic nuances, elegant and that certainly seems luxurious. They went hand in hand, Galang grasped Zahra's hand towards a table in very beautiful ornaments.

“Ra?” reprimand Galang as Zahra continued to look at the beauty of the place. Zahra.

“Ya?”

“Where? You likey? ask Galang. He let go of his hand. Zahra nodded.

“I really like Lang.“ said Zahra with sparkling eyes.

Galang was surprised when Zahra suddenly hugged him. There was something he could not express with a sentence. They're speechless. Galang was about to return Zahra's embrace, but Zahra regained her senses and let go of her embrace.

“Sorry Lang, ak.. I release. hehe” Zahra's clumsy great-grandson.

“Ngga papa koq Ra. Origin you like.” Galang smiled and spread his hands. Zahra hugged Zahra again.

“Still Lang. You made me forget my sorrow.” Said Zahra in Galang's arms. He smiled warmly.

“ I will always make you smile. I will try to make you happy, as happy as possible. Until you forget it feels sad.” Galang.

“I miss the same Gilang.” Gumam Zahra. Didn't feel his tears flowing to make Galang's coat wet. Galang was silent for a moment. His heart ached as Zahra said that. Somehow he would not be willing if Zahra mentioned the name Gilang in front of him.

Galang let go of his embrace and looked at Zahra. His outstretched hand wiped Zahra's tears and touched her shoulder.

“Ra.. Not only you who feel lost Gilang. Me, mama, papa, oma all lost Gilang. I miss him too. But, no matter how much we ask, Gilang will never return Ra. You are a strong woman, you can be without Gilang. You do not want to see Gilang sad and feel guilty because you have left?” Galang asked softly, Zahra shook her head quickly, she did not want to see Gilang sad because of it.

“Remove your tears, Gilang already happy there.” Galang said to calm Zahra.He hugged Zahra again. It was like giving zahra some spirit.

Sick, sick because his only brother has been gone for good. Not only that, it was another reality that made his heart ache as he looked into Zahra's eyes. A pain in Zahra's eyes left behind the lover Zahra loved the most. It made me sick, I don't know what he was feeling. All he knows is that the pain always comes when Zahra says she misses Gilang.

Galang let go of his embrace, allowing Zahra to sit there. For a moment they forgot their sadness.

Whether this be the last dinner or how, Zahrapun did not know.Because after that night, Galang never again met Zahra. A week passed, something was missing in him. Zahra asked Reza about Galang. But Reza did not know any news about Galang.

Months passed by Zahra always waiting for news of Galang, but nil, Galang never contacted him.

Exactly one year of Keina and Reza's wedding. They have a very funny daughter. It's funny Zahra said. Keina and Reza have their own home. Zahra always took the time to play there, just to relieve her fatigue because of a day of work. Since Zahra held one of the branches of the cafe owned by her mother, Zahra has developed it into a restaurant and opened several more branches. Whether it's because he likes it or just entertainment, until Zahra forgets that he also needs a friend to live.

Many times a man came to see her and wanted to get to know her more closely, but Zahra only considered her nothing more than a friend.

Vania Rose Novela, little daughter of Keina, was sitting on Zahra's lap. He was close to Zahra. He's still three months old.

“So when?” sergeant Keina suddenly came with a tray in his hand. Zahra did not want to look at Keina.

“What?” cetus Zahra still plays with Vania.

“Search for couples. Let's not be lonely.” Keina smiled

“Koq teasing anyway? Not that." Keina said, she looked at Zahra who was still playing with her little daughter.

“Where is your relationship with Galang?” ask Keina seriously. Zahra.

“Ngga tau.” Short words. One year passed, he still remembered the figure who had subconsciously snatched his heart from Gilang.

“Koq don't know anyway?” Keina looked at Zahra in wonder. Zahra's face turned moody making her reluctant to ask any more than that.

“That's it, I don't want to talk about him.” Said Zahra evasive. Keina just nodded.

“Oh yes, next week Reza birthday. Don't forget it, do you?” keina diverted the conversation. Zahra looked at Keina and patted her forehead

“Almost I forgot Kei.” Zahra smiled.

“That's forgotten. You think of a mulu restaurant that's why deh.” Said Keina pouting. Zahra chuckled at hearing that.

“Iya yes..what time is the show?”

“Jam seven has started koq.” Keina. Zahra nodded.

“Yaudh, I'll go home with Kei. Check out the restaurant on.” Zahra said goodbye.

“Yes, you be careful, do not speed around bring the car.” Keina said, Zahra chuckled and looked at Vania.

“Bye beautiful, aunt Ara home first yes. Tomorrow play again with Vania.” Zahra told Vania. Vania seemed to extend her hand wanting to go with Zahra.

“Vania still kangen yes same aunt?” keina said and then carried Vania. Zahra smiled gently at Vania and waved her hand.

“Bye bye aunt Ara.” Keina.

Zahra drove her car to the restaurant.

Three days before Reza's birthday, Zahra chose to go to Australia. He wanted to visit Gilang's tomb. It seems like he hasn't visited her for a long time.

With a bouquet of roses, Zahra placed them on Gilang's tomb.

“Lang? How are you doing? I miss you the same. Sorry I just came here to see you.” Zahra took a deep breath.

“I know, although repeatedly I ask you to stay here. You'll never come here. I'm selfish, yes Lang. I was selfish because I always asked God to give you back to me. I love you Lang. Only a few days later I realized that if I like you, you go and leave me. You promised never to leave me again. Why are you leaving forever. Where's your promise Lang? You break your promise. You promised to come home. I want you here. I want to hug you. Me...”

Zahra was no longer able to continue her words. He continued to cry staring at the tombstone and rubbed it gently. His slightly swollen eyes he did not care anymore.

Gilang who used to always upset him and at the same time the person who always imagined in Zahra's mind, is now gone. He had gone far away to a place that Zahra could not possibly meet. Will Zahra be able to replace Gilang's position in his heart? Even Zahra is always evasive when people ask about her relationship with a man.

“Let's also meet mate.” Only that sentence was what Zahra always uttered for them.
