The Complicated Love #2

CL - 11. Won't Run Again

“Males who are in love with you, will do anything so that you can be together. Instead of going...”

Tefan and Nina's marriage is getting closer, only a matter of weeks from now. I was still at Mama's house, at first I did run away, run away from them and run away from reality. But I will not run away from them from Tefan's parents from my relationship with Tefan. Mama and Papa have taught me many things during my stay in this house. At least my heart and my head have opened, that there is nothing I can do now but let go.

Papa's right, if Tefan really fell in love with me and not Nina, then he would come looking for me. At least know I'm okay or not, ask me how I feel and what could prove that she's in love with me. Tefan never came, Tefan never looked for me. I finally came to the conclusion, I don't want to run anymore. I will come to their wedding as a friend to both of them. Lying if there is no hurt feeling seeing them together, lying if I don't want to scatter towards Tefan and pull him away from Nina. I already have self-control, at least no longer ruining anything.

Wednesday morning I left from Mama's house and headed to the apartment in downtown Bandung. I did not go directly to the rented house, I chose to occupy the apartment that Papa had bought at that time. Mama and Papa have agreed with my actions to be present at their wedding. It's nothing I want to show you, solely because I want to prove that I'm not that easy to falter. From a long time ago I knew that the relationship with Tefan was not going anywhere. So I should never have been hurt again.

Arriving at the apartment I reactivated the long-dead HP. There are many incoming emails with short messages. Most of the messages that came in were from Tefan and Nina asking where I was. Then I replied to a message Nina sent.

I’m back...

Message sent. Seeing the status of the message has just arrived but has not been read by Nina. Not long ago my HP – vibrated, Nina called.

“Hai dear...” My broom.

“Rian... Where are you from? Being contacted is hard. I need you so much, my marriage is about to take place and I'm almost crazy to have to take care of things alone. Tefan was busy in his office and I was mostly the one who was asked to take care of everything. Even though I also had a lot of work in the boutique, I had to hand the boutique to my assistant and consen to my wedding. Where are you now? Say, I want to go to your place and kidnap you right then and there.”

Just answered, Nina had already lined up with a myriad of stories about her marriage. If he takes care of everything himself, then Tefan why?

“Rian.. How silent is it?”

“Daddy Nin, I heard. I'm in the apartment. Just tell me where I'll be samperin you.”

“I am again in the office of Dewa, he who takes care of his EO. Know the place?”

“Daddy. If so I get ready first well, later we continue to chat there.”

“OKo dahling. Bybye...!”

“Bye..”

30 Minutes later Nina and I met at the God's office. He seemed to be seriously discussing the concept of his marriage.

“Hai..” My broom.

Nina instead of saying hello back she even gradually hugged, making me barely able to breathe. He was always like this, so innocent to hurt.

“Nin... Nina... don't be tight, I can't breathe.”

“Ehh. I have been waiting a long time for you to come. Kangen knows, I thought you would disappear forever and would never come to my wedding.” His face was wrinkled in such a way as to look at the grievances of sadness because I had gone and never offered it.

“Hai Wa...” My greeting to the God who was smiling suddenly saw me and Nina giving up longing.

“Hai Ri's. How are you doing? Healthy?” God's question seems to imply something, I don't know what yet but he seems to know about me that not many people know.

“Health. You alone?”

“As seen, fresh fit regular fitness results. Hahaha.”.

“Haha. So it's because of fitness? Kirain was orok. Uh Nina's wedding preparations have what percentage?”

“About eighty-five percent. Crew I'm taking care of everything that is still lacking.”

“Hayoo on chat me yes?” Nina had just joined after she had just stepped into the restroom.

“Daddy again chat you and your wedding preparations Kare..” My answer is teasing him like we do at home.

“Is... Harassment calls people names in short order. What a noodle taste kare.”

“Yee... that's the hell you feel like a noodle. Though there are no kare flavored noodles, which there is “Kari” hahaha..”

“Satisfied well after long disappearing finally appeared on the surface of the earth just to bully.”

“Hahaha..

“Hahaha..

Me and God laughed together to see Nina's childish expression.

“Oh yes have you met Tefan yet? He's become very sensitive lately if I mention your name in front of him. Wonder. You guys don't fight, do you?” Tanya Nina was curious.

“Ngak. I'm the same she's fine. Get the syindrom to marry for that reason.” Reply origin.

“Ihh seriously Rian..”

“You guys are so on talking about things that don't matter anyway. Sitting here in front of my desk and we're having trouble getting her wedding ready. Okay!” The gods cut it off.

“Nah really said Dewa.” I chimed.

Nina finally relented and sat down in front of the gods. As long as the two of them chatted I noticed the God, there was something from his gaze earlier. I have to find out, but how is it that if Nina finishes her dealings with the Gods she will definitely take me home with her. Hufth...

A few tens of minutes chatting many things Nina agreed with the last touch that the God would give her in her wedding hall later. All will be designed with luxury but soft impressed. As per Nina's request who would rather feel white and sky blue like her favorite color and Tefan.

As he was about to leave the office of the Gods, he suddenly called out to me and asked Nina for a moment to wait for me to finish talking to the Gods. Nina seemed to put a question mark with her probing expression but I told her to wait a little while. It won't be long, at least five minutes and after that we can go home together.

“What's Wa?” I asked the curious God.

“I know your relationship and Tefan.” His answer was short and my heart trembled the moment I heard it.

“What do you mean?” I'd like to confirm his statement just now.

“I know everything Ri. I've often seen you guys walk together and look friendly. I didn't want to believe it either, but I saw it several times in front of my own eyes. Why would you want to take off Tefan?”

“Not your business.” Answer with emphasis.

“Ri, aren't you hurt because you've forced your will?”

“Which will I force? Do not feel you know many things while you really do not know anything.”

“Because Tefan is my best friend, he is also hurt facing his marriage to Nina. His paper made him a tool to enlarge his name and company. Don't you want to understand a little of her feelings?”

“I understand. Tefan's not a man who's in love with me. If she falls in love with me, when I disappear and get hurt because of her and Nina's marriage then she'll be looking for me. But Tefan never did that. Tefan prefers to be selfish and stubborn with his family. Wa's enough, I don't want to talk about this anymore, me and Tefan are done. Anyway their wedding is soon, I don't want to ruin Nina.”'s happiness

“Although it was done Tefan because of you?”

“You mean? You've gone too far Wa.”

“Tefan didn't look for you, Tefan didn't come to you, Tefan just kept quiet while you were gone, because he was trying to protect you. His father threatened to harm you if he would not obey his father's will. He did it for you Ri. Tefan told me everything, that's why all his wedding business was handed over to me and Nina. Because he can't get through the process Ri. He was also injured just like you.”

“You've talked too much Wa. Nina's been waiting outside for a long time, I better get going now.”

“Meet Tefan once again, he's been waiting for you long enough at the Villa that you often rent in Kawah Putih. This is his last request that he asked to convey to you through me.”

I ignored the last sentence of the God and rushed to meet Nina. He's been over ten minutes waiting and I'm sure he would have been curious half to death if not told what really happened between me and the Gods inside there.

“At the very moment? Why are you guys?” Nina asked after I managed to sit my ass in the car.

Know God, have a crush the same time I until he begs in there.”

“Apply for what?”

“Please let me be her partner later when it comes to your wedding.”

“Hahaha... Is that right? A deity? Oh my God, it turns out secretly she has feelings for you. This must be good news for Tefan, they have been friends for a long time. Tefan will definitely be happy to hear that God turns out to like you.”

I did not respond to Nina's exclamation, my mind just drifted to the words of the Gods just now. Did Tefan really tell you everything? Is it true that Tefan was much more hurt over his marriage to Nina? Didn't she also have feelings for Nina? So why get hurt? From the beginning we both knew nothing could be expected of this relationship, but why did she start to falter now?

Was he really not looking for me because he was trying to protect me from his parents? If so, what is the point of Papa Tefan putting my life at risk? Is that how much he believes in me and my family? Why is man so proud of what he has? Hhh. Nina was aware of what was happening, she slowed down her car and asked.

“You all right? Your face is pale Yan.”

“Not knowing it like I need a break.”

“I go directly to your apartment yah.”

“Yeah.”

Sometimes the way to show love, affection and care has a different way and process. Perhaps we think that person does not care, even though he is the person who cares about us the most. Often it is because we assume that we are the most hurt, even though it is the desperation of someone out there who is much more hurt. So, about the taste let it flow as it is, life must indeed continue to be lived, as much as the color, however we want, we just need to be the best actor for everything that happens.
