Moon In Hugs
Chapter 215



An hour before the party was over.


Frita went to the ladies' room to tidy up the makeup when she accidentally looked at Ratna who also turned towards the toilet hall. They just nodded at each other, not talking to each other, until the two stood right in front of the woman's wide toilet mirror.


“So, have you met? Since when?” ask Ratna suddenly.


“You haven't heard?” said Frita while taking the lipstick from her tiny bag and smeared it to her lips.


“Sound what?” ratna's reply was still in front of the mirror with only a tissue, the former cleaning her hands from the goat satay dish earlier in the reception room of the cousin.


Ratna threw away the tissue and turned to Frita. Frita also turned to her, and said, “Aditya helped me from the evil kidnappers. Dark organization from abroad.”


“Oh.” Ratna's reply sounded ordinary perhaps in Frita's ears, but Ratna was completely shocked to hear the news. Saving Frita from a black organization abroad? As he knows, Aditya travels to Thailand to help a professor.


“It's about that professor of biologists and chemists, isn't it?”


“Oh, no. Actually, yes, there is still a connection, but the professor has been helped by Aditya. Then the criminals did not accept and replace me who they kidnapped,” said Frita who now finished polishing her lips and tried to tidy up the polish with a tissue.


Ratna was silent for a few seconds, taking the powder from her bag, so that Frita would not see her anxiety, nor her jealousy. How could he not know about this? Ah, she's been feeling really bad lately. Still can not move from the wound on the death of the grandfather.


“You guys looked happy earlier,” Ratna said.


Frita just smiled. This time Frita is satisfied and maybe this is the right moment for her to confirm that Aditya has chosen someone among them. This was clearly far beyond Ratna's expectations, so it was possible that she would be in shock and Frita was happy if that happened.


“Yes, we are happy because we are getting married,” Frita said without looking into Ratna's eyes.


That word this time made Ratna feel her chest being pierced by a dagger. That's right, that's how his heart said spontaneously, but it's not impossible that Frita and Aditya will get married. Only, how fast is that?


“You're serious?”


“Ya, serious dong. We're getting married. The conversation with my parents happened just before you came,” replied Frita, who then finished tidying up her dress, then turned around to leave the room.


“Congratulations, yes.” That was all Ratna Riani could say. He can't be angry or anything. Really, he felt very weak right now. Just standing up feels like falling.


Why didn't Frita leave anyway? batinya. Go there! Go so I can fall here without any shame!


“Still, yes,” replied Frita with a smile. Honestly speaking, that remark might have impacted Ratna and Frita happily. He hoped that no intruder might be able to take Aditya from his side.


After that, Ratna stayed quite a while in the toilet. He did not wear powder or also add lipstick polish. He went into the bathroom and stayed there to cry.


Half an hour later, after another cousin called her, Ratna came out. His eyes look haphazard. People ask me why, he just says, “I'm not feeling well. I'd better go home first.”


Ratna did not go home. He went to a bar on a different floor of the hotel, and ordered a hard drink. The bartender said, “Isn't it still too late?”


“As of I want to drink when. It's my life!” said annoyed.


Finally, Ratna spent some time there. Until he was half drunk and remembered Aditya's colleagues earlier. He looks for her to a fairly easy place: the Frita party room. They have gone home to their guests.


Near the door of the party room, Teo called someone who knew who and Ratna approached him.


“Mana Aditya, Teo?”


“Bust go to his room. Why, Ratna?”


“Can take me there?”


“What is it?” tanya Teo was curious.


“Antar just get there. Come!”


Teo was a bit uncomfortable looking at Ratna's current appearance. Her dress was still neat, but her face did not look as handsome as before. Obviously the woman was drunk. And Teo would have been hard pressed to refuse to take Ratna along as she swept her way to the 11th floor, where Aditya's room was located.


“My room is also on this floor, if you want to stop by,” Teo said as they were in the elevator.


“No need, thank you,” replied Ratna. Those words disappointed Teo, but he kept Ratna at Aditya's door.


“You sure? Maybe Bang Aditya is sleeping now. You can stop by my room and we can have a chat. Not going to mess with me,” persuaded Teo to look anxious.


Finally Teo let the girl stand there, while he immediately went into his own room.


***


Aditya held the suitcase in his left hand. The phone was flanked by his neck and shoulder. He was about to call Deri, when the door he pulled with his right hand suddenly displayed a figure of Ratna.


Aditya is not ready to receive ‘attack’ like that. Ratna urges her to go into the room without taking Aditya to remove her suitcase and prevent Ratna. The man's phone fell to the floor, the case separated, and the battery came off. Aditya can only wonder, “You this why the hell?”


“Have me, Aditya! Have me forever!”


Ratna swiftly pulled off the rope of her dress until now she only wore underwear.


“Please, this is not the right time!” aditya said half agitated.


The door to the room is still wide open. A room service officer passed by with a stroller, turned to them, and continued on without a sound.


Aditya immediately closed the door after previously checking the situation in the hallway in front of his room.


“Why are you, Ratna? Please don't do this!” Aditya knew Ratna was drunk and he himself had to get out of here to help her uncle.


It's just that Ratna is reluctant to answer and continues to attack Aditya with kisses on the cheek, in the mouth, on the neck, even to the head because Aditya continues to rebel without being able to escape. Aditya can't be rude to Ratna or any woman.


So, Aditya tried to maybe reattach the casing and battery of his phone, then turn it on. Meanwhile, Ratna was about to take off her underwear.


Aditya can't take it anymore. “Stop, Ratna! Please stop! I'm not messing around!”


Ratna looked at Aditya's face sadly. He sat on the floor and cried. Aditya notices his phone screen is starting to turn on, but the network is not stable yet. She sat down by Ratna's side, hugged her, and asked what made her this way.


“I don't know why we can't be together,” said the girl. “Yes, I heard from Frita you guys are getting married.”


Aditya is speechless. He just kept quiet and felt guilty, but he also no longer had any feelings for Ratna. I don't know what to do so that this girl's feelings don't hurt too much.


“Ratna, please don't put it this way.” That's all Aditya can say.


Ratna finally stopped crying, though her eyes were still wet. She put on her dress again and stood up straight, like nothing had just happened.


“I'm sorry, Dit. I'm too. too. I don't know what to call it. I just don't know why it's this way. After my grandfather died, I felt very lonely and lost direction.”


Aditya could only hug her. A sincere hug from a friend to a friend.


“I have to go home as soon as possible, Ratna. Ii'm sorry. We can talk about this later if we need to. But, I have to go home.”


“Where?”


“My home village. My uncle is in trouble,” replied Aditya.


“Let me come!” Ratna.


“Cannot. I don't want to involve you in this business.”


Aditya still hugged the silent Ratna as he continued to shed tears. And now the phone call to Deri began to sound in his ear.


“Dit, you go anywhere! I've called dozens of times!” answer Deri across there.


“Sorry, yes. The business here is pretty tired of me. Explain what happened to the Dirga.”


Aditya seemed to be listening carefully. Ratna took off Aditya's embrace and looked at the man's face which looked furious. As soon as Aditya hung up the phone, the girl immediately said, “I will still go to your village, with or without your permission.”


Aditya could only keep quiet.


“OK, you better go, Dit. Forgive me for this strange behavior. I really don't know what to do,” Ratna said.


They hugged again for some time before Aditya finally left the city.
