Secrets (Who Are You?)
16. A TASTE
From the timid story and being close. The world has surprises. Meika got off the back seat of Raihan's motorcycle. All the views were focused towards them. Some praised others who blasphemed. Some praise Raihan and Meika who look harmonious, but some blaspheme and consider Meika a traitor for approaching Raihan after Reina disappeared. There is even speculation that Reina disappeared due to heartache. Meika could only accept all of that. For him, as long as he was right, no matter what people said. She must be okay.
Raihan clasped Meika's right hand and led her. He was just trying to give Meika a sense of security. The girl is fragile and may also have trauma. Raihan good young man.
Meika who was treated like that felt her heart warm. Unbeknownst to anyone, the girl lowered her head with a blushed face.
Like a piece from a teen romance drama scene. Raihan is like a male lead who is destined to be with a female lead. It's just, Meika thought. Has he taken the lead from Reina?.

Tokyo...
Reina, looking at the blooming sakura. A smile graced his journey to the subway. He, he's leaving for school today. On the first day it was beautiful and she was the one trying to be happy. Apart from his heartbreak. Maybe Raihan is not for him. He has made a decision, of course he has to make it.
The young man in thick speech was the only person with the same alma mater as him. A pair of earphones on his ear with a mechanical pencil and a skectchbook in his hand. It was seen that he was moving his hands to form several lines. Unknowingly Reina smiled faintly looking at the young man. The next stop would be the stopping location for Reina and she still continued to stare at the young man before her.
I think I fell back in love
the subway stopped. Reina went down with the glasses boy. They walked to the school not far from the stop. Side by side without a sound. The young man was twenty centimeters taller than Reina. One moment made them look at each other. Then the two looked away because they felt his face warm and blushed. Several times Reina patted both of her cheeks. While the young man just covered his face with the back of his left hand.
"Reina.." Reina said to the young man as she extended her hand. He knew the young man was also from the same country as him.
"Rama" he answered and the two shook hands.
They started talking to each other until they got to school. Then the two split up. Rama goes to class and Reina has to take care of her transfer files.
The door of the room shifted slowly. Hana Sensei walks in and writes a name on the blackboard in class. Then tell someone to come in. The beautiful girl came in immediately. Her smile is sweet and friendly. It looks like a character who can make anyone fall in love with just five seconds staring at him.
Unexpectedly, Rama was in the same class as him. A window bench on the second row from behind. Reina sat behind Rama.
The school is an Indonesian school located there. Of course there contains Indonesian children. Reina did not need to adapt hard to the language. Yes, you could say he still needs to learn with the language of the sakura country.
when the break time came, some students scattered out. There are only a few things that are inside. Including Reina, Rama and four other students. Then, came one girl with white skin, her hair was brownish and her makeup looks tacky in Reina's eyes. Just look at how the girl exposed her thighs by wearing that too short skirt. Reina just laughed amusedly by herself. Even more so when the girl approached Rama and struggled spoiled.
oh he already has a handler
That spoiled whimper hurt Reina's ears. He chose to go out and go around. He wants to make new friends.
It's just that, just getting up from his stool.the sound of shifting the legs of the chair made Rama look at him.
The girl Reina guessed as Rama's lover also looked at him.
"get out for a minute." Reina nodded her head, excuse me.
Before that. He glanced at the girl who was looking at him dislikefully. Foolish, Reina did not feel like she had any business with the girl.

Meika walked alone towards her extracurricular space. In the past, everything was easy. However, since the case of Reina's disappearance and the follow-up case of her adoptive parents, everything has changed. Even Meika also felt hate for herself. Mila, her twin sister is still unaccounted for. He doesn't know what to do.
Raihan the angel heart. She was the only human to be a protector for Meika at a time like this. It hasn't been long since all of those incidents happened. Meika tries to believe a taste for Raihan that is still stored in her little heart. Lying if he doesn't feel happy, it's just. Doesn't he have that taste?
"what's up Mei? why just shut up? relax, no one dares to hurt you." said Raihan as he rubbed Meika's head
love can grow anywhere and no reason is needed anyone can fall in love with anyone.
There are many things in this world that happen miraculously. Meika was the one who experienced that miracle. Dusk seduces bring orange. Meika sits on the back porch of Raihan's house. For a moment he seemed to smile and blush while holding both cheeks. Raihan who was walking from the kitchen towards the second floor accidentally saw her. The young man then smiled faintly. Meika's behavior looks adorable and becomes her own entertainment for Raihan.
Since when did she look so adorable?
Raihan secretly immortalized the moment into his cell phone. He took a few seconds of video and put his smartphone back in his pants pocket. Then leave Meika with her imagination.
Only, Raihan missed one thing. The imagination becomes uncontrollable which becomes very troublesome later.
The days go on, everything seems to pass quickly. Meika and Raihan become more intent with each other. There is no certainty of the relationship between the two. From liking to being love. I think she loves Raihan.
Meika is happy with her closeness with Raihan. But on the other hand. He is also haunted by guilt. Falling in love with Raihan was like a mistake.Sometimes he felt betrayed by Reina as the people at school said.

Sunday in Tokyo. Reina paddled her bike casually down the streets around her house. Today was the first time he went around alone. He was also afraid of getting lost. Armed with a smart phone and some enough money, he ventured. He stopped at a bicycle shelter not far from the subway station. He'll go and meet a friend in the next town.
"go alone?" Reina who was going down the stairs to the underground station looked at the source of the sound.
"Rama?" reina was a little surprised
