That Cold Guy is my Ex!

That Cold Guy is my Ex!

"Keenan, where's Keynna?" rework Arshaka for the umpteenth time.


Keenan sighed softly, "I don't just want to apologize as straight as the matter goes to you. But also ask for help with you."


"What about?"


"Keynna, she wants to study abroad."


Arshaka.


"Seriously?" Arshaka doesn't even know what to react to.


Keenan nodded heavily.


"Why?" tanya Arshaka remained calm.


"Nyokap will work in a new branch of his office in New York and Keynna wants to participate nemenin nyokap at the same time lecture. I'm afraid he wants to be a nutrition doctor."


"He didn't tell me." said Arshaka.


Keenan heard it, "Gue also just found out. That's why I rush to find you even though I am still mentally preparing to face you again. But things are getting messy because Keynna seems to have made his decision."


"When?" ask Arshaka.


"When what?" ask Keenan back not understand.


"When did he leave?" ask Arshaka more clearly.


Keenan was silent for a moment, and it made Arshaka feel nervousness.


"Tonight." he said.


Arshaka was surprised, "What?"


"Tonight he will fly with his mother. I don't understand why he was in such a hurry when the lecture was starting a month again. He hasn't even listed at all."


"He's avoiding me?" arshaka knot.


Keenan sniffed his shoulders, "Maybe but it could also be non-existent. Keynna is very affectionate with nyokap. When our parents announced their divorce, Keynna immediately chose to live together even though she had to move to America. And I guess this time it's the same."


Arshaka quiet. His heart rumbled in that silence. Knowing that Keynna will go again.


"To be honest, I kind of disagree that Keynna's going abroad. I mean, there are still many good campuses in Indo. The friends are here too. And if he goes to college, he'll have to adapt again. Although he has lived in America for 2 years, but he will live in Las Vegas not New York. So I don't know if I can talk this to you about anything, but I'm asking you to help persuade Keynna not to go."


"Why don't you persuade yourself?" ask Arshaka.


Keenan sighed, "Gue wouldn't ask you for help if I could. Believing in disbelief, Keynna is typical of the most bastard superpowers on earth."


Arshaka smiled faintly.


"But if you do, Keynna is still unmoved. Especially me?"


Keenan chuckled, "The problem is that if Keynna leaves now, he's not necessarily going back."


"You mean?"


"Look, I actually have a discourse that he wants to live in America. And I'm afraid Keynna is the same. I'm afraid Keynna's gonna stay there, too."


Arshaka surprised. He stood straight up.


"Why didn't you say that?!" yells. Without a word, Arshaka immediately ran out of the library.


Keenan cengo because Arshaka yelled, "I feel like I've spoken."

A few hours before her flight, Keynna took the time to visit her father again. Not to fight anymore but to apologize.


As soon as Keynna arrived, his father Reon was immediately seen with Linda and their son, Jefrey. They had lunch together in the yard. The sight made Keynna fixated and unable to get close. In his eyes, the scene he was witnessing was the warm image of the little family he had always longed to repeat.


But everything has changed. Because the one who sits with his papa and while joking is not him, mama and Keenan again.


"Non Keynna, why stay there?" the sound of reprimand from her papa housemaid makes Linda, Reon and their child turn towards Keynna.


A shocked look was seen on Reon and Linda's faces.


"Keynna?" reon was surprised. The middle-aged man was clearly surprised to find his daughter revisiting him after not speaking again since the incident.


"here, Son. Have you had lunch?" reon's asking is still as warm as ever.


Keynna awkwardly walked over. Obviously, since that incident, the relationship between the two has been strained. There is an invisible distance between the two.


"Well, Key?" ask Reon again.


Keynna.


"There's something I want to say." said Keynna awkwardly.


"Yeah, sit down."


Keynna nodded, "Stand up. I'll just take a minute."


Both Reon and Linda stopped eating and waited for what Keynna would talk about.


"What do you want to say, Key?" ask Reon.


Keynna was silent for a while then suddenly knelt down. Reon and Linda were shocked.


"What's this, Key? Why are you on your knees? Get up, son." cried Reon.


Keynna.


"I'm sorry, Pa."


Reon remained silent. Can't believe that the first word that came out of his daughter's mouth was an apology.


"Key..."


"I'm sorry for my iniquity all this time to papa. As a child, I shouldn't judge you. Just because my mom was suffering and sad because of my dad, I hated my dad. Papa is my papa. As a kid, I can't hate my superheroes." Keynna's eyes were reddened.


"I admit, right now I still haven't received it all. And I was never ready to realize that all the things we have always done as a family no longer exist. But that doesn't mean I hate papa and have to break up with papa. At that time I was disappointed with my dad. As long as you know, mama is not like papa who can escape everything and continue his new life. And maybe because of that, my hatred for papa grew bigger. But now I realize, pa. I shouldn't have been like that. I'm sorry." Keynna lowered her head deeply. Her tears were in her eyes.


"Key..." Reon sat in front of Keynna.


Keynna. His eyes met Reon's warm eyes. Keynna as much as possible not to cry. And instead, he smiled widely.


"Take care of yourself and take care of your little family. Don't let, Jefrey Alamin what I've been with Keenan alamin. Believe me, no child on this earth wants his parents to separate. Everyone wants a complete and harmonious family."


"Keynna, I'm sorry papa." Reon hugged Keynna. Keynna.


And then Keynna's tears spilled in his arms. A hug she had never felt again since 2 years ago.


And it still feels just as comfortable.


"Sorry papa, Key. Because it makes you a broken home child. Sorry papa, son for not being able to take care of our family. Sorry papa, Keynna." isak Reon.


Keynna did not answer. Still crying. Tears that fell on the shoulders of the papa is a silent witness how the feeling of buried Keynna so far.


He pretended to be strong and acted a lot of crazy. It was because he simply did not want others to see his weakness. He doesn't want anyone to know that he has a disability.


"I'm sorry, too." isak Keynna returned the embrace of the father tightly.


After cuddling with Reon, Keynna got up and looked at Linda with her puffy eyes. Linda looked down.


"I'm sorry I can't come to your wedding. Even so, I do'ain the best for your household. But I'm also sorry that I won't call you mama. Because for me, my mom is just one of my own."


Linda speechless.


After that Keynna turned to his half-sister. It was only realized by Keynna that Jefrey looked very similar to Keenan as a child.


Keynna smiled a little. He stroked Jefrey's mane which made Jefrey a little uncomfortable.


But even so, the boy's round eyes looked at Keynna deeply.


"Lo is similar to Keenan. And I'm sure you'd be so cute if it was big. But I hope you only inherit the good looks of papa just as clever, not the same crazy nature. If not, Keenan will be set aside because he has lost his crazy."chuckles Keynna.


When I am satisfied to say it all. Keynna looked at Reon again.


"I'm going abroad with my mom. All of you are there too." he told me.


"But you're going home every summer, right?" asked Reon expectantly.


Keynna just smiled.


"Key..."


"Pa, I'd have died if I was hard there, I'd have stayed there."


Reon was surprised, "That means you're not going back to Indonesia?"


With a sweet smile, Keynna nodded her head.


***


Sorry that the number you have reached cannot be reached. Please try a few more moments.


There were dozens of calls from Arshaka, but Keynna did not answer them once.


Arshaka's been looking for her everywhere. To his house, Lisa's house, school even tree house. He's even come to Keynna's papa's house, Reon. But Reon says that Keynna did come to his house when he came home.


But Reon's speech afterwards made Arshaka again frightened.


"Keynna apologizes as well as saying goodbye. He said he was going abroad with his mother. And if he gets there, he'll stay forever."


Because of Reon's words, Arshaka almost ransacked Bandung just to find the existence of Keynna. But Keynna wasn't found anywhere. Arshaka is very frustrated.


Drrt


Arshaka's phone is shaking. Arshaka, who was resting in one of the cafes, hoped it would be a phone call from Keynna.


But it was not Keynna who called, but Keenan. Somehow that guy can get his number.


"Hello." said Arshaka.


"Arshaka, have you met Keynna?"


"Not yet." answered Arshaka listlessly.


"The flight's back again. Better go straight to the airport. Who knows Keynna's there."


"Where is Lo? Didn't you get anther?"


"Gue called the lecturer to make it to his house since this afternoon. I'm just as happy as I am."


"Okay, I hope you meet Keynna before her time."


"Thanks, Keenan."


Silent for a moment there, maybe because the guy who likes shrimp crackers was surprised. Didn't expect to hear a thank you from Arshaka.


"Together."


***


Keynna Pov's


After I went to the hotel, I did not immediately go to the airport. Wait about two hours sitting in a chair under a banyan tree in the Lembang area. It's far away, right? Intentionally, let's not see Arshaka.


There are a lot of thoughts that have infiltrated my brain. Most of it is because of Arshaka. I don't know why, some of my heart is heavy for him.


For me, LDR is not a big deal. But in my relationship with Arshaka, we are obviously not dating and obviously do not need LDR.


But I have to be brave. Dare to take risks. Dare to start pursuing my own happiness. Yes, just me alone. No need to involve anyone else anymore.


So it's clear, right? What did I break up? Arshaka and all.


Drrt


My phone rings. It was from mama. Coincidentally earlier I deliberately activated airplane mode so that no one would call me.


I also know, there are dozens of missed phone calls from a man who has a sweet smile named Arshaka.


"Where's Key? The flight's back again."


"Yes, ma. I'm walking to the airport now."


Leaving behind my feelings, I finally woke up. Pulling my suitcase towards Husein Sastranegara International Airport.


When I got there, my mom was waiting for me in the waiting room. He ruffled his waist as I approached.


"Keynah! Where the hell are you? Want to go also say." mama's nag.


I just fell silent. Obviously, I don't have the energy to just smile.


"Mom's gonna buy a drink first. Thirsty." said mama.


"Kan dalem is also there, ma." I said. Wasting money is just as much energy.


"It's up to mom" he said.


I snorted bitterly. Waiting for my mom, I sat in the waiting room.


I opened my phone, there were messages from my friends. Starting from Lisa, Raffa, Panji even Regan who is now again in the Netherlands. If Arshaka is not asked again, the message is the most.


Their messages are the same. Asking the truth I went abroad. Lisa even cursed because I didn't say anything and went straight away.


I


I'm sorry I didn't say the same. Not that I was selfish and did not think about our friendship only when it was very sudden. I'm sorry, yeah. Oh yeah, you don't need my anther either. I want to go home every semester. Or if not, come here. I know bule.


After replying to Lisa's message, I also replied to a message from everyone else except Arshaka. After that, I turned off my phone.


Tap


"Keynn."


At that time I again looked down lethargic but thanks to the familiar voice, my head looked up. I was shocked to see Arshaka standing in front of me right now.


"Saka." said I.


"Don't go" he said. I scrunched my forehead.


"Why?" ask me.


"Don't go. I beg you to keep it here. Next to me." his words really struck my heart because he said it in a heart full of heart.


Unfortunately, I am not the kind of person who likes to change. Once I decide, it will be the final decision for me.


"Gue can't." Including Arshaka's request, I also rejected it.


"Why, Key? You really left because of me? I feel better with your brother. And I was initially angry because you are Keenan but now it's not, Key." he explained.


I keep shaking my head, "My departure is not because of you or anyone else. But because I'm alone."


"Why, Key? Why don't you stay?"


"Gue realized, there are many events that make me realize that self-happiness is important. I've tried to make my papa ngeikhlasin marry the new person he already loves. I also want Anna to leave the earth. And I've also been sincere about our problems 2 years ago."


"I was really excited at the time, Key. I can't control my emotions. I'm sorry." said Arshaka solemnly.


"Gue asked to break up, why are you apologizing? That was also last. No need to talk about it anymore."


Arshaka held both of my hands, "So Key, please stay here. Beside me once more. I promise to make you happy until you refuse to leave the earth." pinta Arshaka.


"There's something I haven't told you yet."


"What's that?"


"That's why I love you too. I realized that feeling never goes away. Although the taste was stained because of the wound, I was willing to be a masochist as long as I can continue to enjoy my affection to lo."


Arshaka can I see a happy and relieved smile. Maybe because he knows that my feelings are the same for him.


"So you still want to be my girlfriend again, right?" tanyanya expectantly.


Still maintaining a smile, I shook my head. Arshaka's rapture changed.


"Why, Key?" ask her disappointedly. I don't know why I feel more here, Arshaka more expressive.


"Gue so keinget the same words Dilan in his book." Dilan is my favorite novel of all time. Because Dilan really ngingetin I'm the same Arshaka. Not because their actions and personalities are the same. But because of their way of understanding love for girls is really sincere and romantic.


Dilan and Milea were probably using a CB 100 motorbike which became the most romantic scene for dating in her time. But me and Arshaka prefer bonfire on the bike while snacking on cimol.


"I used to feel like I'd be with you forever when I laughed together. In the past, I felt I would be with you forever when I heard your breath on the phone late at night. In the past, I felt, I will be with you forever when your head rests on my shoulder with all sorts of romance ingredients. In the past, I felt, I will be with you forever, when I feel the pleasure of being with you on the bike with the wind in your hair. In the past, everything looked beautiful. I never thought that we should finally part."


A sentence from Dilan that is enough to describe my feelings at this time.


"But how hard I look for reasons why I should stay, I never found. It feels empty when I try to be ordinary and try to change my decision. It feels bland and uncomfortable. It was as if I had no place in London anymore. And I thought at the time, that I should try to play further. Who knows, I could have a new happiness."


Arshaka seemed to peg at hearing the long speech of my wide bin.


"So I'm no longer the reason for your happiness?" ogre.


I don't know what to answer. Some of my heart says no, but some say yes. I don't know why, but my heart seems to have no place for Arshaka anymore.


"Gue love you but I can't be the same lo." I said.


"Gue doesn't have a chance anymore, Key?" hope it's almost desperate.


I'm speechless. Honestly, I'm trying too. Looking for the remains of my heart for Arshaka.


But in the end I shook my head, "No, make it now."


Arshaka was obviously disappointed and sad.


"The reason you're still gray, Key" he said.


I don't know either. Honestly, I don't know what reasons I can tell you what I'm feeling. I am not very good at word processing. I let everything flow as I want my heart.


"The bottom line is, I just want to nemenin mama there. As I seek my own identity. I realized, this year, I am not an adult at all. There was a lot of hatred, sadness, disappointment and anger lodged in my heart. And I'm honestly bothered with my life right now. I want to find a new hobby, find a new atmosphere until I can grow older."


Before long, the announcement of the departure of the plane I was about to board was heard. She passed in front of you but she just smiled and walked first.


I let go of Arshaka's hand slowly, Arshaka tried to hold him back. But not strong enough.


"Gue go yes Saka. Take care of yourself." I said. When I say goodbye, I don't even cry at all even though I don't deny my heart hurts.


Arshaka finally nodded slowly. The guy was hit hard but I'm starting to accept my decision.


"Gue appreciate your decision. May you be well there and dapetin happiness lo sepetnya. Lo really, self-happiness is much more important" he said.


I smiled while nodding.


"Bye, Saka."


I finally turned around. Walking behind him towards my new place of hope. Arshaka did not return my farewell.


Step by step I moved away from where he stood. But before I really got into the gate of space, I looked back. Arshaka still stands there faithfully.


"Gomachi!" shout me.


Arshaka looked up, looking at me.


I smiled, "The winter in New York is cold. If you want to come on new year's night, you must first go to Central Park!"


I don't need to hear Arshaka's response, after saying that I immediately turned back. Now walk with a lighter step towards the plane I was riding.


I sat down in the chair next to my mom. Next to the window.


"Are you the same Arshaka?" ask mama.


"I'm not dating her, I hope what?" ask me back.


"If so, wouldn't you go out?"


I just smiled without responding. And prefer to stare at the asphalt runway through the plane window.


"If so, wouldn't you go out?"


I smiled, "He's my ex's cold guy."
