Orion's Secret

Chapter 10

*P**you I've dreamed of living together, fighting together, loving each other to old age. But the universe is not as good as it allows*.~

Shilla Termangu in her room. It's the first day of his life without Gabriel's morning greeting. Without a little attention from Gabriel. Without a soft voice from Gabriel. All without Gabriel.

"Lo again what's Gab?" looking up at the stars in the sky. At a glance, the shadow of himself and Gabriel under the orion light flashed again. Happy they came back to Shilla's mind.

"When we become scholars, I promise to marry you. And I'll take you around the world for a honeymoon."

Shilla smiled wryly as she recalled Gabriel's words back then.

"Hopefully you are happy with Acha. And I am also happy with my soul mate later." he said smiling. One twinkle of tears dripped in his eyes. He just let it go, enjoying the night breeze in the balcony of his room.

************

"Vi, who was that girl yesterday?"

Ify and Sivia walk to the park bench at the famous university. Sitting side by side, the two stared at each other.

"He's Agatha. Rio's past." explained Sivia.

"Certain something dong Vi." pinta ify.

"So long ago, Agatha was the same Rio courting from 2nd grade Junior High. Well, right after entering the 2nd grade of High School, Agatha moved her papa to Paris. And it looks like he just came here yesterday."

"So the reason they broke up?"

"I'm not sure there's a breaking up between them. You see, I knew that Agatha moved suddenly like Shilla yesterday. Rio was frustrated when Agatha left. Agatha also did not know Rio if he moved. Kayak left without a message like that Fy. But don't be mad at me."

"Oh, I'm not angry." ify rethinking Sivia's words.

No word breaking yet? So can dong them at any time back up? Her thought.

"Hi Via, hi Ify." said Agatha. The girl with shoulder-length hair was sitting next to ify.

"Lo gapain?" ask Sivia sarcastically.

"Gue just want to know the same ify. Can't you?"

"CAN'T!!" snapped at someone who was definitely not Sivia. The three girls looked at him in unison.

"Rio!?" peekkik Agatha. He tiptoed in shock was snapped so loudly by the young man who still occupied his heart despite not having met for years.

Rio pulled the ify into his arms, he came with Alvin.

"Lo why Rio? I'm good just want to meet your girlfriend's acquaintance. I won't be sick." said Agatha.

"Lo is evil. And at any time you will remain evil!" Rio went to bring the ify, so did Alvin.

"Tell you guys" said Agatha with a hateful look.

********

Class is done. Rio rushed towards the ify class with Alvin.

"Btw, I'm the same as Sivia" said Alvin proudly.

"Wadaaaw is happy. The treat is dong say." said Rio seductively.

"Ntar'd be tonight."

"Damn lo." Rio punched Alvin's arm slowly.

"Rome!!"

The two men stopped and looked. Agatha was seen running towards him. Rio and Alvin compactly thumped his mouth.

"Gue nebeng Rio. Our house is in the same direction."

"Do you know my house?"

"What moved, huh? Not the one before?"

Ify who saw Agatha approaching her heart immediately ran towards Rio's place. After all, her current position was Rio's lover.

"No need to gatel same guy guys! Go home by yourself!" snapped ify. Rio was shocked to see the arrival of Ify and Sivia. Especially when he heard Ify's words were so rude.

"You're rich, what do people do? You broke your bokap, huh?!" sivia Fishing line.

"Gue did not bring a car" said Agatha memelas.

"Just walk there!"

Agatha instead held onto Rio's hand and rubbed it. Make the blood of ify boil in his body. His eyes were glaring and squinting.

"If Rio permit me to cry yes." said Agatha put on her innocent pretentious face. It doesn't look sinful at all.

"No!" reject Rio. Ify approached Agatha and grabbed Agatha's hair with all the strength she had accumulated.

"Aww, sick! Take me off, asshole!"

"Lo is a jerk! Dare you deketin Rio again, I ruined your life!"

Rio broke up the quarrel of Ifh and Agatha, he went to bring ify and Alvin as well as Sivia.

"Iiiihhhh very nice. Look out, you don't know who I am." agatha said.

*********

Rio brought ify to his house. He wants to introduce Ify to his parents. Alvin is still driving Sivia home.

"Sore aunt, om." say hello and kiss both hands Rio's parents.

"Sore boy, you must be Rio's girlfriend huh?" guess Manda. Ify was just a little embarrassed. Manda and Haling brought Ify and Rio to the guest room.

"You don't bring Agatha dong. It's a potential mamah ify, not agatha" Rio said. They just laughed lightly. Ify was also not a problem because he was relieved Rio defended him.

"Where are we going to dinner tonight? Ify bring parents ify, we have dinner together. Ify want to?" touch Manda gently. She stroked ify's hair from behind.

"You are so aunt. Papa would want to." said ify excited.

Ify was warmly welcomed by Rio's parents. Makes her very happy.

But does he know that his happiness is not as perfect as he hoped?

prayer matters.

you whispered to earth, but his voice echoed in the sky. Not everything said will be realized.but God knows which is more necessary.

*********

A luxurious and magnificent restaurant. Surrounded by a beam of yellow lights in each concrete mid-restorant, making the harmonious atmosphere so visible.

This is where the Haling family is. Waiting for the candidate to come. Yes, they already assume Rio and Ify will soon hold a wedding if they graduate from college later. The matter of work for Rio, is all set up because Rio is the heir to his father's fortune with Alvin later.

"Ma, Alvin let's go to the toilet first" said Alvin.

"Don't be a long time later if the ify family comes not good" said Manda.

"Yes ma."

Rio, Manda, and Haling are there.

Just as Alvin was leaving, Ify came with Umari.

"Aunty night, Om." said with a smile.

Manda did not smile kindly like yesterday, she instead looked fixedly at Ify's father. Both were equally in disbelief.

"Come?!"

"Manda!? So you're Rio's mama?!"

Umari and Manda were both shocked. How come? That means....

"So ify it's Alyssa?" ask Manda with teary eyes. Umari just nodded while looking down. He also did not expect to meet his ex-wife.

"Does your aunt Manda know each other?" ask ify doesn't understand. Haling and Rio just kept silent looking at each other. Alvin didn't come, he just watched the commotion in the distance. Not wanting to add to the problem, because he also did not know what his parents were talking about with Ify's parents. All she knew was that her mother was crying there.

"Alyssa, she's your real mama" Umari said.

DEG!

"Birth mom?!" his screeches. His eyes were empty at once.

Manda was crying. He did not think that Alyssa was his biological child. The boy he left 18 years ago.

Manda hugged ify tightly as if she didn't want to lose anymore.

"Alyssa, mama misses you to hiks. Mama is looking for you in Bandung." said Manda in tears. Ify was silent. He didn't return Manda's embrace. His eyes turned to look at Rio, his gaze was now blocked by the expanding tears in his eyes. But he still saw clearly that Rio was similarly teary.

"So Rio?" tanyakanya. Rio's his real brother too? Her thought. What kind of a joke is this!?

Ify jerks Manda's embrace and leaves the place. A tear had fallen there. It hurts too much to accept all the facts he knows at the moment. Dinner that should have ended happily, even became a disaster in his life.

"Alyssa, where are you going, son?!" shout Manda.

"Alyssa!?"

"Let her go calm her mind first Ma," said Haling. Umari followed Haling's words.

Rio's? He closed his eyes slowly. How can the woman he loves be his mother's biological child? What kind of events happened in the past. So what did Umari tell you about Ify's siblings some time that it was him?

At that time, they forgot Alvin.

While Alvin, he ran after Ify who has been out of nowhere. But because of the shaky step of ify, he fell on the side of the road. The rain started to fall down heavily once, making the tears of ify disguised. It is true that it should be this way, he can freely cry and scream freely.

"What is this God!? I hate it" cried ify in sobs and lightning that struck here and there.

"Fy, Ify? You're not papa, are you?" alvin approached him. He crouched down to see Ify who was sitting on the wet paved.

"Vin, why should I be his biological son? Why Vin? That means I'm the same Rio can't unite, right Vin!? Aye?" racau Ify's.

"Fy lo calm down first. Lo go home yeah, I take you."

Ify hugged Alvin tightly. He needs a back up at this time. Where else should he lean at a time like this? Rio's? Not anymore. He was embarrassed to meet this man. The man he loved so much.

"Gue doesn't want to go home. I don't want Vin."

Alvin rubbed Ify's head slowly and gently. Under the rain, they strengthened each other.

"Fy lo is patient. This must be Fy's misunderstanding. You go home first yes, tomorrow you guys talk well." persuaded Alvin.

"Gue between home." ify just according to it. His head feels very dizzy.

Alvin stopped the taxi and boarded it with ify. He brought ify home.

Again, they forgot Alvin.

A pair of eyes witnessed the incident. Nanar's eyes. The handle on her umbrella is very strong. His heart hurts even though it's his best friend.

"Sivia, let's go home."

The girl stepped away with a wry smile on her lips.

Seriate...
