Riana rushed out of Aksa's apartment with a frightened feeling. He's really scared right now. Riana booked an online motorcycle taxi to the hospital where the victim of the accident was taken. Along the way Riana continued to chant prayers. Her tears kept dripping, making the online taxi driver occasionally look in the direction of the rearview mirror because many times Riana wiped the tip of her eyes.
I want it to feel like my brother asked Riana, but she was disinclined. The motor stopped in front of the hospital that Riana was heading to.
"Mas, can you wait a minute. I'll just check inside."
The carpenter nodded, he also could not bear to see Riana's already red face. His steps led him to the mortuary. There were already many people who were dressed neatly like company leaders. However, she did not see the family of her future husband being there. Riana tried to contact her family who were in Jakarta, but Riana's phone died because she forgot to charge last night.
Fear had already spread in his heart. He walks like he's not walking. His heart kept beating very fast. I asked him if he knew anyone there. Riana's footsteps led Riana towards one of the officers there. However, it was as if everything was silent.
"Abang," she said.
"Riana!" call one of the women.
Riana turned to Risa who called her. "What are you doing?" tanyakanya.
"Ris, do you know who the car accident victim was this morning?" ask Riana.
"I don't know for sure because the family told the hospital to keep it a secret. But the body is still in the morgue."
It turns out that Risa works in this hospital in her office. Seeing Riana's very chaotic face, Risa did not have the heart and led Riana to the mortuary. He talks to the officers, and Riana is finally allowed in.
"You can come in."
His legs were reluctant to step, feeling very heavy. But curiosity beats it all.
"This is the body of the accident this morning" the mortuary official said.
Slowly but surely Riana approached. His body looks trembling. When his hand touched the covering cloth, suddenly the hand of the accident victim fell to the side. Riana's eyes widened when she saw the watch in the hands of the corpse.
"No, no way."
Riana shook her head and her body fell to the floor. Riana cried loudly to make the officer call Risa.
"Riana." Risa tried to wake up Riana's body that was already resting on the floor. A look of sadness was clearly visible on his face.
"Who is this body, Ri?" Curiosity rippled in Risa's heart.
Seeing Riana only speechless, Risa tried to open the corpse cover.
"Don't! I can't stand it" said Riana, who was still crying.
"Ri, in this world many people are just alike. If you don't open it you'll never know who's behind this cover. Who knows, you're crying over the wrong person" Risa said.
What Risa said was true. However, if it really was Aksa his heart would be completely broken. Where the wedding is just counting the days again.
"We open, yes."
The look in Riana's eyes showed fear, but Risa kept convincing.
"Pray, hopefully not the person you think you are" he added.
Riana started to approach towards the gurney containing the corpse. His hands began to stretch out slowly and had touched the white blanket that covered the corpse. Long breath Riana did. His hand slowly opened the corpse, but his eyes were closed. He really can't afford it.
"Ri, open your eyes" Risa said. "If it's kept closed you won't know who this corpse is" he explained.
Slowly Riana's eyes opened. His eyes were bulging when he saw the corpse in front of him, Riana quickly closed it back and ran away from the morgue. Risa and the attendant just shook their heads. Risa also looked at the corpse carefully.
"I don't know him" he murmured.
The motorcycle taxi driver that Riana ordered earlier was still waiting for Riana. Riana got on the bike and sent the online motorcycle taxi driver to the WAG Group. Along the way, he continued to pray. There Riana handed two hundred thousand bills to the online motorcycle.
"Rezeki Mas," said Riana, before the taxi driver refused. Riana could not linger.
He ran towards the elevator and pressed the button where the meeting room was. His heart was still rumbling, afraid that it had not disappeared.
Upstairs, Riana rushed towards the meeting room. His hand was already holding the doorknob with the heart continuing to beat very fast.
"What's wrong with you, honey?"
There was no answer, just a hug Riana gave Aksa. All eyes were festering at the sight before them.
"Sorry, our meeting is postponed for a moment" said Fahri.
Fahrani approached Aksa and whispered to him. Aksa nodded quickly. He took Riana out of the meeting room.
Riana's hands were still coiled around Aksa's waist with tears still flowing. Aksa was confused and astonished.
"Ri's afraid, don't stay with Ri anymore" he said.
Aksa's forehead frowned at Riana's words. She unraveled Riana's embrace and looked into Riana's already deeply puffy eyes.
"What's up, honey?" tanyanya while removing the tears that had flooded her face.
"The accident was this morning ...."
Riana did not continue her words. He does not know what will happen to him if the victim in the accident is Aksa.
"You think that's Brother?" Riana nodded as well.
Aksa still felt the heartbeat of Riana who was still very tight. He hugged his future wife's body tightly.
"That's Brother's friend. The plan after this meeting is over Brother will come there to serve," he explained.
"That car?" ask Riana.
"That was indeed the WAG Group car, last night he took it to the apartment."
Riana's heart is like a dry land that receives a shower of rain. Relieved and very relieved.
"Date the meeting first, yeah. You just wait here. The meeting will be over soon." Riana nodded as well. Before leaving Aksa kissed Riana's forehead very deeply.
Riana is still faithfully waiting for Aksa in front of the meeting room. He was neutralizing his heart while charging the battery. The door of the meeting room opened and Riana's eyes began to look for the figure of the man who this morning frightened her. After all his colleagues came out, Aksa approached the future wife who was looking at him.
"I'm sorry, it worries you." Aksa's hand had rubbed Riana's cheek gently.
"Sister why is not active, as well as Mas Ari's phone and also Mbak Rani?"
"When there's an important meeting, the rules are like that, honey. All our phones are off."
Riana placed her head on Aksa's shoulder with a hand that embraced the spoiled arm of her future husband. Aksa kissed the tip of Riana's head very gently.
"We're back in Jakarta."
Aksa's hand kept on clinging to Riana's. So did Riana who tightly grasped Aksa's hand.
"Udah is like a trailer truck" grunts Fahri who is their driver.
In accordance with Aksa's words, they headed to the funeral home of his best friend and just flew to Jakarta.
"Never stay, Ri." That sentence was again what Riana said.
"No, honey. Your goal is to marry you because you want us to stay together. You want to follow where you're going after we get married?"
Riana nodded quickly and her hands began to circle in Aksa's stomach.
