Still the Same

Still the Same
tears



shaina's work in Bandung is done, happiness is very clearly engraved on Kay's face, however she deliberately set this all in order to be with shaina,,,,,, no matter what,,, they enjoy a missed lunch, at exactly three in the afternoon, kay booked a place in an outdoor restaurant on the beach, and,,


the weather was not hot at that time, the wind blew lightly,, seen children who ran chasing with their parents on the beach, really making shaina jealous,, she was unconscious,,, she was,, from earlier, Kay's gaze never escaped from her face, obscuring every inch of her eye lips and charming nose


" why look at me like that sir, is there something on my face??"


Kay smiled in submission


" yes,,,"


" where sir," shaina explored her own face


Kay laughed a little, though,,


" no, no, I'm just kidding"


" what the hell, father, not funny!!"


" yes sorry, no pouting" still chuckling


after waiting for quite a long time, their order came, enjoying the culinary sea, with a very beautiful natural scenery,,,


shaina was already very hungry, she immediately ate a delicious appetizing dish,, in between her meals, shaina remembered something


" actually I want to say something to you!!"


" what's up?? just say it"


" i'm not coming home with you this afternoon, I have a little need here!!,,"


"needs??, if you can know what kind of needs shaina, maybe I can help!!," Kay bargained


" emmm,,,,


no need sir, later even troublesome father!!,,


I'm just looking for someone, actually I'm not sure if the person I'm looking for is here or not,,"


" then I'll drive you to find that person, I can't leave you alone here,,"


"but sir!!"


" it's finished the food, after that we go straight to where you mean"


" all right,,,"


******


the time showed that at almost four in the afternoon, they rushed away after finishing eating all the dishes, and,,


just as they were about to step away from the place, Kay's phone rang, and she picked it up after seeing the name, "mama"


" hello ma, what's up???"


" Kay, you go home quickly, Rena comes and makes another act Kay, you have to hurry, she threatened to kill herself if you don't come back tonight,,!!!"


looks confused on Kay's face


" mama, just calm down, I'll be home soon"


shaina who saw the conversation, understood that there was an urgent situation befalling Kay


" shaina, I'm really sorry, I can't keep my word and have to go back to Jakarta right away, there's a family problem that needs to be addressed,,!"


" i'm fine sir, you don't have to worry about me, hopefully your problems can be resolved soon"


" then I go first shaina, you be careful,,"


the man walked a little run towards his car park,,


" sir, "shaina shouted and the man turned his head


" heart of heart"


Kay smiled and nodded her head


the car was speeding away leaving the shaina who was still standing in that place until the shadow of Kay's car was not seen again,,


with the address Dafa gave her, she took a taxi and headed to Dafa's former workplace, the largest steel mill in Bandung, where she worked,, it only takes 30 minutes from Shaina's current place,,


looking uneasiness on his face, he squeezed his sweaty hands many times, normalizing his heartbeat, so many questions that had filled his brain all this time,, why would a lover who loved him so much go away like a lost twilight in the night,,


**********


his age was no longer young, but his charisma and good looks never faded,,,


Adipura was already very healthy at the moment,, the news of kael's closeness to a woman was a little disturbing him,, it's just that he let her this time,,,,,,, it's,,, give kael a little time to have fun for a moment,,,


to celebrate his recovery, Adipura invited several colleagues in his mansion,


only important and influential people who appear to be present at the party with the upper class accompanied by their respective bodyguards, it appears Adipura deliberately invited two people who now look very familiar with him,,,, and,,, the daughter and daughter-in-law of Bramantyo, Iren who was present wearing a green dress, very beautiful with her husband who has now served as CEO at one of the largest hotels in Jakarta, was,,


" uncle, how are you???," said Iren spoiled Adipura, whom he considered to be his father


" of course well, where's your father, uncle didn't see him from earlier??"


" father was in Japan uncle,, he wanted Iren to convey his apology directly, because he could not attend today, if father had returned, he must have come straight here uncle,,"


" o yes uncle, introduce, this is Dafa Iren's husband"


" i'm Dafa om" introduced himself as he extended his hand,,


" o so you're Dafa, the man who made my son Iren so infatuated, hahaha,, it's worth it, you're so handsome apparently" "there's no need to bother me,, if you need anything, you just call uncle"


" has Kael not arrived yet??" adipura asked one of his men,,


" it's mister, the new boss got out of his car"


" let him meet me!!"


soon Kael came and approached impassively, as always,,


" kael, come here, I'll introduce you to someone"


" they were Bramantyo's daughter and daughter-in-law, pointing at Iren and the dafa


kael just bowed his head in a sign of mutual respect, it was also done by Dafa,,


when Kael's eyes met Dafa's gaze, he remembered the face in a photo displayed in Shaina's house, which he had seen,,


what is this person's relationship with shaina, I can't possibly be wrong people, yes, they are the same person


"you should be more familiar with him, he is the one who currently holds the X hotel in Jakarta, maybe, maybe, someday you will work together,, he said,,


isn't that Dafa??" adipura


" hmm, of course uncle," answered Dafa who was a little surprised, being uncomfortable with kael's gaze at him


****


kael beegegas headed for the quiet room as his phone vibrated,,


" what's up??"


" the man returned to Jakarta alone boss, miss shaina is still in Bandung today"


" you're tracking his whereabouts"


instantly turned off his phone and stepped away from the Adipura mansion


even so many people in the room, but Adipura noticed kael with a hurried ny step


what's wrong with her??


while continuing to talk to his guests


********


time had already shown at 10pm, his face was tired,, disappointment was seen in his beautiful eyes,, the person he was looking for had long been nowhere to be seen in his workplace just now,, they don't even know Dafa's latest news, though,,


the cold weather was not as cold as his heart at this time, the atmosphere was so quiet that it could not make a woman afraid, sitting at a bus stop on the side of the highway,,, and,, who began to be silent from the passing vehicle, his empty gaze like a vast sea without land,, undeniable in his heart still lingering love for Dafa,,


**


a black sports car stops right in front of the shaina stop being,,


his daydream came to a halt as someone approached him, walking with wide strides, the expressionless eagle gaze did not take out a single word,,,


shaina was still fixated and in disbelief with the person currently before her,,


kael goes straight to Shaina and pulls her hand, gets her in the car, and drives off at high speed,,,, and,,,,


the eagle's gaze frightened shaina,,


" what's wrong with you??"


" what are you doing, it scares me, what if it hits someone passing by"


there was no reply from kael's lips, shaina squeezed the sifbell on her chest firmly,, the car was speeding away once making the woman tremble


**


sitttttt,,,, rtrrttttrrttt


there was the sound of the car tyre stopping at high speed,,, the car stopped on a very quiet and dark road,, Shaina opened her eyes,, seeing that she was still doing well,, and,, took a deep breath and looked at the man beside her


" you're going to kill me??" scream snaina


" i have absolutely no idea who you are and what you mean, but stop messing with my life, and for that kiss, let's just say it's a mistake"


shaina tries to open the door and wants to get away from the man beside her, but the car door is locked


" open,, I'm going down!!!!," shaina shouted furiously


" it's so hard to accept my love!!"


" i almost died missing you,, "


their gazes met, with their respective meanings


the mood was so quiet,,,


looking at the deepest heart in the gaze of two people


" kael,, listen to me," shaina ventured, speaking with a heart


" i forgive you, you don't have to repay me with anything, all the love you mean is regret and guilt, you have to be able to get rid of it, you have to get rid of it,, start a new life, find the woman you really love, don't let this guilt ruin your own life,, "


gently shaina said, even her tears almost fell,,,


" so, you're avoiding my end this time, because you're assuming, everything I've been doing all this time out of regret,,,, that's,,,


to be honest, regret continues to haunt my life, but I'm not stupid to think of my love as pity, look at me shaina, whether my eyes seem to be lying,,"


the eagle's eyes were glazed with glass
