Title: Game of Love (Part 2)

_________________________

September 29th, 2013

I went into a secret room in my house where only I knew what it was, I opened the room, saw a girl in a long sleep, his body was attached to medical devices to keep him alive.

I said to him “tast night you came to my dream again, you tried to pressure me so that I feel guilty to you?. ha. ha. unfortunately it didn't work, you haven't died yet, you haven't died, and I won't let you die until you answer all my questions, especially the diamond necklace that my family had stolen 2 years ago, it wasn't my fault, you chose it, why did you save me after you hurt me, I tried to forget but never could, what magic you used, Kiran realized until when you would fall asleep like this, why don't you wake up, are you waiting for someone?, is Vasto the one you're waiting for?, I'm holding back my grief, I don't want to cry in front of her even though I know Kiran is sleeping long but I'm sure her soul is seeing and hearing me right now.

Even in the sleep you see only him?, why did you have to save me back then, I don't understand, you really made me hate to love you, watching you fall asleep makes me sick, wake up quickly.

But Kiran stayed asleep, making me go lock the room.

I saw Sunny standing in front of me.

“hai, is it better?”.he asked me.

“what do you mean?”.

“why do you further complicate your problems, just let Kiran sleep forever, don't you hate her so much”.

“I want to make him suffer”.

“cih, instead of you suffering yes, every day continue to hope that he wakes up, your prayer will not be granted”.

I laughed.. “ha.. ha. ha.. you were afraid Kiran would wake up and take everything you took from her”.

She was shocked by my words “apa!!”.

“we are engaged only to achieve our own goals without any love, your goal is to take Kiran's life. Even after Kiran is still asleep you are still scared”.

“you mocked me”.

“calm down, soon she will wake up after explaining everything to me, I will release her”.

“will wake up? you're gonna call Vasto?”.

“I'll find it”.

Sunny is even more afraid that Robby will find Vasto, he secretly goes to an old shophouse that has been unused, where he finds Vasto whose face looks very dirty, beard and musty.

He talked to Vasto “Robby still hasn't given up looking for you Vasto”.

“ini will definitely happen”.

“quickly get out of here before Robby finds you”.

“what is Kiran okay?”.

Flashbacks

Kiran was working in the library shortly after Vasto came. After the door was closed by Vasto, Vasto immediately fell asleep in Kiran's lap, Kiran's face was moody. Kiran stroked Vasto's hair, and Kiran knew that if Vasto fell asleep on her lap she was in a lot of trouble.

“you didn't welcome me with your usual smile, you why?”. Vasto began to ask.

“I did this for us and my grandfather”.

Vasto got up, he held Kiran's face “you feel tired, we can stop if you want, we can find another way”.

Kiran shook her head while smiling “what other way, try to explain you must not have found it”.

“I keep thinking since then, I don't like you to keep doing it, do you feel okay, do Robby treat you well, we can stop Kiran, we can stop, even though I haven't found a way we can definitely”.

Kiran took Vasto's hand off her face and held her tight “if we stop now maybe Robby won't let go of us both”.

Sunny replied in a bitter tone “she is fine, you are still worried about her?”.

“I want to meet Robby, can you help me again” Vasto answer.

“you're crazy, I tried desperately to hide you from her why you even wanted to meet her”.

“this matter must be completed, I do not want to hide continuously like a coward, I ask you to help me once again”.

“you and Robby both like to be alone, what is this you do every day to Kiran, then want to do it again, I am not Kiran who accepts everything happening to her, you can hide”.

“I can't hide forever, Robby is chasing me for no apparent reason, you don't know what it's like to be a fugitive for 2 years, I want to deal with it myself, I know you protected me for your promise to Kiran, I will remember your kindness all my life”.

Sunny recalled when she saw Kiran with Vasto for the first time.

Flashbacks.

As Sunny passes in front of the library where Kiran works, Sunny sees Kiran laughing with a boy in high school uniform, Sunny knows him that boy Vasto, who is a boy, isn't he the son of the famous hurricanes who likes the brawl, yesterday his gang he just attacked my smaku children, even I was also hit, why he can laugh with Kiran, Kiran does not know yet. the night I interrogated Kiran about this in her room, I went straight in without knocking on the door first. Kiran is studying maybe doing the task.

“Kiran there are things I want to ask you”.

“about lessons Yes Sunn?”.

This child, Sunny continued “no, this is about the brawl boy it”.

“babak bawuran?, I'm sorry does that mean I don't understand”.

“iih, Anvasto gang leader bawuran time you do not know sih”.

He seemed to think and then remember “oh, Vasto from high school Hurricane, you know also it turns out, uh know where I know him from, Vasto tell you?”.

What the fuck is he why his expression looks happy when I talk about it “of course I know, he is famous the troublemaker of sma hurricane, you must not know that, did you get tricked by him?”.

Kiran smiled “I know that, he's the brawling leader of the High Hurricane, likes to make trouble everywhere, many times will be expelled but can't because of his genius, Vasto himself told me”.

I jerked “dia herself who told me? then why don't you stay away from him?”.

“I guess you and the other people who heard me and Vasto were friends must be wondering why I wanted to be friends with him, at first I thought he was different from me, he was a rude person, he said, angry, but I hear and feel his heart, so like this he is, he is a naive person, I feel it”.

I never believed in Kiran's words where maybe a naive person could be the leader of a brawling gang, until one day, my leg was sprained due to my own carelessness sms'an on the stairs, until I fell down, he said, I accidentally didn't tell Kiran, I didn't want to be helped this time, so I went home alone to endure the pain, unfortunately again on the way I was stuck brawl, so, I protected myself by covering my body with zinc that I found on the road while walking I was hit by someone, I fell, then I immediately saw who hit me, it turned out that he was Vasto, he said, he was like running from something, I wanted to chase him, but aw, I couldn't get up”AW”, maybe because he heard my moans, he turned to ask me, he asked me, then holding my sprained leg “aw it hurts tofu!!!”.

And without ba.. bi. ma'am he immediately carried me in the back, “hei what you did”, I continued to rebel asking to be released, I continued, after some distance from the place he let me go just like that almost I fell again I screamed scold him “aduh, sick”.

He also got angry “tadi ask to be released now it is released right, I go first”.

“hei, don't leave me alone here.My feet hurt once” Sunny really felt the pain in her legs getting worse.

Vasto let out a long sigh and then he sent Sunny back home.

After getting to Sunny directly into his house without saying anything, Vasto also without saying anything immediately left but before long Vasto left Sunny came back just to see him go, but, “why he went straight away without waiting for me first”.

Sunny recalled that Kiran's words were true, she then told Vasto “if I helped you what you would do to me”.

Vasto wonder “what does it mean”.

“forget it, I'll help you”.

Robby's Office

In his study, Robby daydreams about his time with Kiran.

Flashbacks

He replied “iya”.

Kiran always did, answered me flatly, she rarely smiled at me, unlike me smiling at her.

Kiran said again “love can be accepted without torturing?”.

I who was confused by the question Kiran asked “torturing love? what makes you say like that”.

He replied “Robby don't love me too deeply if you don't want to get hurt later”.

“you mean I'll get hurt if you love you, why?” I don't know what Kiran said, but I don't want to know and I don't want to know.

Kiran smiled coldly as usual.

I told him “you're like a poison that hurts me to death but I choose to get hurt instead of leaving you”.

This time Kiran looked at me after I said that.

I looked at the photo of me and Kiran, I said to Kiran in the photo “holes in my heart are still left for you”. Right I got a text from an unknown number, I got a text, I can't believe I left my office right away, reached a deserted destination, where is she?”.

“I'm here Robbyan Ketsuga”. That guy's voice calls me.

I laughed cynically “nyali you are very brave to call me to meet you in person, you are not afraid I brought the police to arrest you”.

Vasto also laughs cynically “if you call the police you will never know where the necklace is hidden”.

“you're just a delinquent, useless kid, I want to speed up where the necklace” is.

“I know I've been trash since I was born, but I'll never steal it it'll never be in my life”.

“trash like you can't be trusted, you and Kiran both plan to steal my necklace right, admit it”.

“no, from the beginning we never went after your necklace, we were only after your money, but it stopped I told him to stop, if you can't believe you can check the contents of my bag, my house searched all”.

“then why are you hiding without saying this to me”.

“that's because Sunny told me to shut up and hide, she said if you find me you'll kill me and Kiran, now I dare to meet you because I can't keep hiding from you, you can do anything with me, but not with Kiran, let Kiran” go.

I'm even more surprised “you said Sunny told you”. I don't feel I said all that to Sunny, don't-don't Sunny…

At home Robby Sunny finds the secret key to Kiran's room, she opens it and sees Kiran, she talks to Kiran “ I feel sorry to see you like this, you lived a hard life since you were a child, you know, you lived a hard life, grandpa and I found you on the street looking for food in the trash, and I felt sorry for you and persuaded Grandpa to be my friend, grandpa agreed that grandpa not only made you my friend but also my foster brother, and I immediately regretted it, you took my life, made Grandpa love you so much more than me, you did everything he wanted, shifted my position, and you took my place, you should know I'm the princess in my own house, not you, I was so happy you were there at first but it was only a short while after you took everything that should have been mine, you're after Robby's grandfather and then Vasto, everybody likes you, I hate it so much, so I planned this to steal Robby's family necklace, it's not my fault but your stupidity that told me about it, look how beautiful this necklace is, you're also stupid to protect the Robby I'm about to hit, I hate him for liking you when you tricked him, I stole this necklace to get Robby to open her eyes but she kept thinking about you even letting you live, I thought she'd turn away from me but not because you saved her, I can't kill you either because you've done so much in my life, so letting you know like this makes me feel relieved, after this I'll bury this necklace, no one will know that my game is not your game, Sunny prepares to leave when Kiran opens her eyes, Sunny sees it, Kiran's eyes continue to look at Sunny, her mouth is about to talk, Kiran's eyes are about to talk, Sunny continued saying “you remember grandfather always called you The moonlight moon calms grandfather, whereas I the morning sun always cheers him up, but all I see is that grandfather only needs the moon beside him, the moon calms him down, being without sun grandfather can live”. Sunny leaves soon, but is confronted by Robby, Vasto and the police.

Sunny shocked “since when you guys knew”.

Robby replied “you should have seen the situation around you, I installed a cctv in Kiran's room so as to know anyone other than me who went into her room”.

Sunny said “in the silence I dreamt of you I painted us together but always I asked if I was in your dreams?, I always sang like in front of you, you can assume I don't exist, but are you in Kiran's heart, you're as thirsty as I am for love, a love you'll never get. ha. ha. ha”.

I was furious with Sunny's words, I told the police “take him away, I'll finish it later”.

They took Sunny away.

“Ja...ng.an” I heard Kiran's voice, I immediately saw her trying to stand up, but she fell down, I immediately hugged her “you're aware of Kiran”.

But Kiran said “Va.. s. to”.

I was silent as he mapped Vasto's name, I loosened my arms, I brought him back to bed, Vasto prepared to leave, Kiran opened her eyes she knew it was me she smiled.

I told him “don't say anything, you just realized”. I saw Vasto was gone.

A few days later

Kiran was able to walk back, her health improved, we didn't say much, I waited for this moment there were many questions in my mind that I wanted to ask her, I visited her she was already in her old house, there's a nun I hired to take care of her, her foster parents are busy taking care of Sunny in prison.

Kiran wrote in her book, when I came.

“what did you write Vasto, he never came, did he, or do you have another plan to deceive me?”.

Kiran stopped writing it and then spoke to me “still not quenched is your grudge against us?, you hate us so much really, even though we are not the real culprit?”.

“although you are not the real culprit, you are still fraudsters, lucky I am still kind enough not to report you”.

“you're here wanting a reward, what do you want?”.

“you certainly know what I wanted from the first only you, not only you but your heart, you must have heard a man not only wants a woman who is loved is beside his heart also”.

“I don't want to make the same mistake, you already know the answer, let go of me”.

“why, after everything I did for you, you repay me with the hurt and betrayal you did”.

“all my life I have only lived for others, this time let me choose my own life, let me go. The wound in your heart will also go if I go, you said you would do anything for me, this time I ask for the last time to erase the memory of me from your memory and heart, forget me”.

“what if I don't want to?”.

“I will release myself from you, you know I can do any desperate thing”.

“including saving me back then, why did you save me?”.

“because I want you to owe me, I want to escape your burden, we're already breakeven, I don't need to be with you”.

Like a dagger piercing right in the upper part of my heart, it hurts so much to hear honesty from him.

I answered him “well if that's what you ask, I'll obey him, I tried to hold his face but he turned away, I said again “I'll erase all my memories to you, forget that you ever played with my heart, forget everything”. I then left limply.

I heard Kiran say “forgive me”. make me stop for a while and walk again.

October 8th, 2013

Kiran walks down her childhood memories, she sees the trash can where she used to forage, she also goes for a walk remembering her meeting with Robby back then, Kiran shook her head then went to the old library where she worked and she walked beside the library there was a cafe, she saw Vasto was asleep there, as before, Kiran will wake up before Vasto wakes up first, Kiran says to her “I know you pretended to be asleep”.

Vasto replied “I also know you're coming, sorry to have made you hard”.

Kiran shook her head “forget it all, I beg you forget”. then Kiran hugged Vasto, Vasto smiled back hugging Kiran.

Across the street Robby saw them he said to himself “in my heart engraved your name love misses one another but always I ask if I am in your heart, I always find out in your heart and eyes but the answer is always the same, should I stop what if this love does not stop, the hole is still in my heart, will always be there.

After hugging, Kiran smiled warmly at Vasto she said to him “someone who is in love can destroy everything”.

Vasto also smiles at him then replies to Kiran “other people who are in love can destroy themselves”.

Robby also continued their saying “since ancient times loving would only leave painful regrets, these regrets continuously flowed without a definite end
