Reaching Hope
Chapter 52 Starts to Open the Heart
Six months later.
"Sister Cindy please stop hoping, it's been more than half a year that she's had no news. Start to open your heart to other men, Mr. Andre seems to like Big Brother," said Clara.
"How will I open my heart if my status and Bima is not clear? What if I open my heart and suddenly Bima comes, what should I do?" cindy asked, the net began to condense.
"But it's been a long time that she has no news, it's possible that she's forgotten Big Brother and has another girl" Clara said.
He felt unbearable with Cindy, Bima had left him for months without the slightest news. They have tried to find out its existence on the campus where he attended college, but the results are nil. For residential addresses to be kept secret by the campus due to their personal nature, they were forced to go home empty-handed.
"I'm confused Clara, why would she make me this way. Hiks,hiks..if he doesn't love me why he's not straight, it's better than hanging like this," Cindy said can't help but cry again.
Clara hugged Cindy, trying to calm her brother who kept crying. It's been half a year that he's been alone, now it's all overflowing.
"Patience, brother, what happens let happen. Brother should not be like this continue, Brother also deserves to be happy. Try to open your heart to other men, live this life like running water. God willing, God will give his best" said Clara wisely.
"Maybe you're right, Clara, I need to be strong and live this life. I resigned to God's will" Cindy replied as she wiped her tears.
"Well that's dong, mumpung again our holidays come on Kak," said Clara happy.
"Where are we going?" ask Cindy.
"We just go to THR, brother, play as much as both." replied Clara gave an idea.
"both? You didn't bring the others?" ask Cindy.
"No, I want to go alone with Brother. For months I often left Brother alone, because Brother does not want to go especially if Mr. Andre comes along, Brother like avoiding him," explained Clara
"I'm sorry, but next time I won't do that again. I also feel bad for Mr. Andre, all this time he has been so good with me, but my treatment was just bad for him," said Cindy Lirih, she felt guilty.
"What matters now that Big Brother has realized it, all must be happy to see Brother's change. Let's get ready" said Clara cheering Cindy on.
After preparing they rush to book a taxi and leave for THR, a legendary amusement park in the city of Surabaya. They have not gone together for a long time, other than being busy working to see Cindy sad after the disappearance of Bima, making them reluctant to walk around for entertainment. Seeing Cindy smile back made Clara feel very happy.
Arriving there they are very happy to see many rides games. Born from a family less able to make them never feel riding a variety of rides like that. Let alone to ride rides, vacation just a walk to the park or eat at a roadside stall they have never been. They enjoyed the day off this time. Lots of rides that they try ranging from the usual to the adrenaline rush. After they were tired, they came home with happy hearts.

The next day. The Adi Jaya Group office.
"For Cindy, Clara. His face was bright, it was like the sunrise," said Bella, mocked both.
"Do not get me wrong even for months I saw your face was already covered mega, often drizzle again," he joked Bella.
The three of them immediately laughed out loud until the stomach ache. Bella and Clara were so happy to see Cindy smiling like that. They really understand Cindy's feelings, it feels like in staying fit again dear, very sad for sure.
"What's wrong with rame? Is there a birthday, right? How come you're not rhyming?" asked Andre curiously.
"Eh Mr. Andre, no birthday sir. We're just kidding, too happy to see Cindy smiling again. Until the release of his laugh, sorry sir is already noisy," explained Bella while scratching her head that does not itch.
Andre looked at Cindy, making her bow down in shame. Honestly, he was happy to see the girl smiling again. After he finished dealing with Jessy at that time, somehow he felt there was a different taste to Cindy. Whether it's a feeling of what he is also confused, whether love or just a sense of pity he is also not sure. But because Cindy always tried to stay away from him made him not want to expect more.
"Then to celebrate the return of Cindy's smile, go home our office yuk way. It's up to you to go where, eat, watch, shop too, all I treat," said Andre made the eyes of the three women in front of him perfectly round.
"Seriously, Sir?" bella still doesn't believe it.
"of course. Clara, Juan, please take you with me. I'll be the most beautiful when I'm alone" Andre joked, making them all laugh.
"Ready, Boss," Clara replied as she saluted, making the atmosphere even more boisterous.
"Thank you, Mr. Andre, yes" said Cindy softly.
Andre melted hearing the soft words as well as Cindy's happy gaze.
"Together, I'm glad to see you can smile back," replied Andre sincerely.
Cindy felt more guilty all this time always ignoring the man, she promised from now on will open her heart and start a new life.
They are very excited to work today, because the mood is happy. Not feeling the time passed quickly, the hours of home office had arrived. As planned, they will go together. Clara is in Juan's car, while Cindy and Bella are in Andre's car. They decided to go to the cinema.
"Wow why the film that was played smells like that all yes," said Andre while looking around.
"Yes, there are still some who are not old enough" said Juan.
After looking around there was nothing suitable for them to look at each other.
"How about we go to tim3zone, counting on childhood memories. Free to play anything, how?" andre asked, waiting for the approval of his friends.
They all agreed. It seems like they are back in childhood. All the games they tried. Although just yesterday Cindy and Clara ride various rides but in tim3zone does not make them bored, playing crowded makes happiness even more felt. After being satisfied to play various games they also feel hungry. They stopped at the foodcourt mall to fill their stomachs. Not feeling the day was getting night, they decided to go home soon. Togetherness is beautiful. Friendship is complementary not judgmental, mutually supportive not dependent, may it always be so.
