I thought this was the end, but it turned out that this was the beginning of everything.he who was present suddenly teased me with the word love.then broke my heart hard and then went inside and settled there. instantly made me no longer able to say anything.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
A week has passed. now Rio has bought a ticket to return to Sulawesi.he decided to return tomorrow morning. he was still thinking how to tell Shasya about his departure tomorrow.
finally came the idea in his mind to take Shasya on vacation because it happened that today was Sunday. Rio immediately picked up his phone and called Shasya.
"Yes, you have an event today?"
"no, why Ri?"
"to yuk beach"
"beach? now?"
"yes."
"let's say, I haven't been to the beach for a long time either."
"no, I just want to go together with you."
"emmmm, come on"
"you're ready, I'll pick you up in an hour"
"okay"
Rio immediately got ready.he was wearing a casual outfit that is a black shirt and long jeans do not forget to wear a jacket made of jeans as well.
somewhere else.
Shasya dismantled his closet.and now there are many clothes scattered on the floor.he does not know what to wear. somehow suddenly he felt his clothes were not worth wearing.
finally the choice fell on a light blue mini dress that seemed very soft.of course suitable for his warm personality. she also polished the powder on her face and scratched the pink lipstick on her lips.then she tied her hair so that her neckline was visible.
"perfect" he said as he looked at his face in the mirror.
*****
tock..tok...
the sound of knocking on the door was heard in Shasya's house. Shasya's mother immediately walked towards the door and opened it. Rio was already standing there.
"eh Rio, what's going on here?"
"Rio wants to pick up Shasya ma'am, all you want permission to take Shasya to go to the beach ya ma'am"
"oh yeah already, you go in first let me call Shasya"
"yes ma'am"
Rio went inside the Shasya House and sat down on the Sofa located in the living room.
after a while, Shasya came out of her room and walked towards the living room.
"hay, sorry for the long wait" said Shasya who made Rio look at her.
Rio was silent.His eyes kept glued to Shasya.This was the first time for Rio to see Shasya dress up.
"Beautiful". Rio said involuntarily
"what did you say?" shasya asked, not because Shasya did not hear, but because he confirmed what he heard.
"no, yasudah let's go. I'm afraid of misfortune" Rio tried to divert the conversation.
"hmmm. okay"
Shasya and Rio got into the car. at a moderate speed Rio drove his car to the beach.The journey from Shasya house to the beach takes approximately 2 hours.
in the middle of the trip Rio saw a mini market.he parked his car and invited Shasya to buy some snacks for them to eat while relaxing on the beach. After finishing, they immediately returned to drive his car.
now they have reached the beach.the happy look on Shasya's face.for him the beach is a very quiet place and of course brings calm.that's what makes him very fond of the beach.
Shasya ran here and there like a child, he pulled Rio's hand to invite him to play water. Rio according to and participate dissolved in the simple happiness that is now created.they laugh together and occasionally tickle each other's waist.The atmosphere at that time was really very pleasant.
They were tired and sat next to each other. Shasya leaned her head on Rio's shoulder. Rio was stunned, his heart was getting raging. He wanted to start talking but not a word he could say.
Rio brought his face closer to Shasya's head. kissed her forehead with teary eyes. "why did I start this all? now it is very difficult for me to leave it. when I know for sure it is only temporary" Rio inner.
"hey, what's wrong with you? is there something you want to talk to?" shasya's voice returned Rio's focus to her.
"Yes, horrifying me." said Rio lirih
"what the hell is it, really serious?"
Shasya was silent, her eyes were enlarged.she immediately raised her head from Rio's shoulder.
"to whom? whatisthis? what's that supposed?" shasya's inner self raged on. She thought Rio had fallen in love with the other person, and her heart was not ready to shut back the door that had opened.
"waw, who's the same?" shasya's lips trembled while trying to bring out a smile that looked forced.
Seeing Shasya's reaction, Rio instantly smiled and nosed his forehead.
"hahaha..His face is normal.Why? you don't want me to date someone else?"
deg.
"die me, he knows my heart" said Shasya.
Rio grasped tightly Shasya's hand then looked at her sharply, then he took a deep breath.
"Yes, I fell in love with you. From the beginning we met. You managed to make me just focus on you. Thank you for filling my days." Rio said solemnly.
Shasya's heart trembled. He did not know what to say. On one side he was happy it turns out his love did not clap one hand. on the other hand he had promised himself not to date at least until he graduated from school.
"Yes, I'm in love with you, but I'm not asking you to be my girlfriend. I know we're still in school. You have a principle and I appreciate it. Sorry for loving you so suddenly." Rio explained when he realized a big change was happening on Shasya's face.It was very clear the look of confusion on his face.
Shasya smiled.he was more and more convinced Rio was different from all the men who approached him first. Rio never forced anything on Shasya.he felt that only this time someone told him honestly without expecting any status or anything from him.
"actually I don't know if I'm in love with you or not, but I'll feel lost if you're not around. You're the best guy I've ever met. thank you for always knowing me". said Shasya while gently stroking Rio's hand.
"what if I'm not as good as you think I am?"
"meaning?"
"what if I just give you false hope? what if after today I leave you?"
"it's your right Ri, you're sincere or not to me it's your right. whereas I only believe what I feel. To me this speech looks very honest. The rest is up to you, even if in the end you leave me all I can do is control my disappointment in you so that it doesn't continue and doesn't affect my life too much."
Shasya stared at rio's eyes sharply, looking at him,
"i know what, you want to go back to the sewers??"
Rio was surprised to find that Shasya already knew the direction of their conversation.he raised Shasya's head and pointed Shasya's face at him.She saw that Shasya's beautiful eyes now began to emit water droplets that almost fell on the cheek.
"forgive me if this feeling finally hurts you" Rio said as he wiped away Shasya's tears.
"i'm fine, after all you're also back there only for a while, and I'll be waiting for you. You're the first man that makes me wish time had stopped this time." Shasya sighed.
"forgive me, I'm sorry, it's not just my departure that will hurt you, but the fact that I have a boyfriend. I can't take it off because I still love her and I don't want to lie to my heart for loving you" Rio said.
"it's Ri. no need to think. I'm fine. go!" Shasya resuscitated Rio from her increasingly troubled mind.
"thank you and wait for me. After all I'll come to you" Rio said and gently stroked Shasya's hair.
"when did you leave?"
"morning tomorrow"
"let's go home."
"yes"
Shasya and Rio moved to his car and drove it home.Today was their last day together.they did not know exactly when they would meet again.
there were no stories as long as they were in the car. silent, completely silent.
every now and then Rio glanced towards Shasya who was dissolving in his mind and gently stroked Shasya's hair.
"it may be too much for Shasya because she has to feel in love and separation at the same time, especially this is her first story" said Rio in his heart
Shasyapun was still trying to calm down trying to strengthen his heart.
"yes, maybe his destiny should be so. anyway later will also meet again." Inner Shasya.
after a while they finally arrived at Shasya's house.Before descending, Shasya suddenly hugged Rio.and it was enough to make Rio surprised.
"already.this is not the end of lo Sya, I promise I will return" Rio tried to calm Shasya.
"let's go down, you say goodbye to mother as well" said spoiled shasya.
"yes yes, let go of your embrace"
Shasya let go of her embrace and got out of the car and walked and of course was followed by Rio. Rio said a few words to say goodbye to Shasya's mother because tomorrow he will return to Sulawesi. after finishing he returned to the car and drove his car home.
while Shasya continued to stand in front of his house with eyes that were still fixed in the direction where rio went. Although now the rio car was no longer visible, Shasya did not budge and still continued to look straight.
"Sya.sha..kat already said do not fall in love.alau itself will be" said shasya to himself.
