THE HEAVEN THAT IS TAKEN AWAY

Part 67: Suppose, Mas Roland Became My Brother

"let's get out of here, brother." Roland asked me to leave after finishing talking to Ringgo.

"all right, I'm so tired of wanting to take a break." I said as I followed Roland's steps.

I couldn't clearly hear their conversation, I saw that Ringgo's mas turned several times towards me while talking to Roland's mas. Mas Ringgo looked at me with an unusual look, I could feel all that from the look in his eyes.

Actually, I'm still curious about Roland. He was so kind and caring to me that we just met. But since the situation was not possible, I did not dare to ask him that.

"are you hungry before you go home, let's eat first yuk, mas hungry once."

"yes, I'm hungry too. This morning, I had a little breakfast.

"in that case, let's get on the bike. It will take you to a restaurant where you usually eat. Mas sure you must really like the food there, all the food there is delicious you know."

"ayo mas, I'm so hungry to hear it mas." I rushed up to Roland's motorcycle, I can't wait to taste the good food that Roland said.

"you must hold on tight, you will fall on."

"yes," I immediately held onto Roland's mas, now I can't wait to hold on to him.

Not knowing why, I felt so close to her that we had just met. I felt like he was so protective and respectful to me. I feel comfortable and safe when I am around him, he is able to channel the strength of the heart when holding tightly to my hand.

I don't understand my own feelings, these feelings flow so sincerely. I did not feel the inner turmoil, as I felt when I first met the Ringgo mas and Aldo mas.

'let's say Roland became my brother, I must be very happy.' Suddenly the words in my heart, I hope Roland becomes my brother.

'now, I want you to be my brother. I have no one else in this world, now who will take care of me?' I asked in my heart, suddenly I felt the space of my heart was silent.

After getting divorced from Ringgo, I must be lonely because I don't have a single person that can be considered family. My father and mother died a long time ago, now I also have to lose Ringgo mas.

I had to let go of Ringgo's mas because there was no way I could live with him anymore. I I'll let him live with the Queen, the woman he cheated on.

"why are you quiet?" mas Roland surprised me, as soon as I gasped from my daydream. I realized from a dream, the reality is that Roland is not my brother.

"there's nothing mas, I just don't want to disturb your concentration." I said with a bitter smile, trying to cover up my feelings.

'come on Rianti. don't dream too much. mas Roland is kind and attention to me does not mean you have the right to expect him to be your brother.' I said in my heart, I reminded myself.

I must realize who I am, I am like a ridge bird that misses the moon. I can only hope but it will never come true.

"you should not mostly daydream and think, brother. What exactly are you thinking?"

"he he, I didn't think of anything mas."

"we're here, let's go inside." Roland stopped in front of a restaurant.

Mas Roland immediately took me after he parked his bike. I followed Roland like a child following his mother.

"let's order your food, you can order whatever you like." Mas Roland had me order food when the waitress came to give me a menu list.

I immediately scanned one by one the food contained in the menu list, frankly I was confused to choose it. Even though I graduated from high school, I honestly did not understand the name of the food written there.

"here's your order, enjoy your mbak." the waitress who served my order, delivered the food and served it at the table.

'astaga, what food is this' I said to myself in my heart. I immediately took out a menu list and compared it with the food presented on the table. After being noticed, I saw the food was exactly the same as the one on the menu.

I was suddenly confused by myself because the food I ordered was apparently shrimp with a slightly large size without accompanied by rice, but only accompanied by french fries. I saw the potatoes just a little, I was a little disappointed with the food I ordered.

'i used to be lazy to learn English, it turns out this is the result.walah, the address will not be full to eat this food."

"why deck, why do you even daydream to see food. Come eat soon, aren't you hungry?"

"i-iya mas," I stuttered to answer Roland's question.

Actually, I never ate shrimp, because my mother always forbade and never cooked shrimp-based food. I don't know why, I don't know.

I started to bribe it turned out that the cooking was very good, not how long I had spent my food. Frankly, I still feel hungry because the food portions are very little in my opinion especially not accompanied by rice."

"if you want to add, just order on." mas Roland offered to add, but I just smiled refused even though my stomach still feels hungry

"no need to, I'm full." I lied about refusing Roland's offer. He just smiled and shook his head, maybe he knew I wasn't full.

"come here, how many bills do we have to pay?" I called a waitress, then she approached us.

I wanted to pay for the food we had just eaten, I felt like I should have bought Roland's mas because he had been too kind to me all along.

"while I'll count it first." the waiter counted immediately, then handed me the note to pay

"is it not wrong to count?" I looked up at the number that was there. The number is quite large, I don't believe what I see.

The waiter smiled as he shook his head, I looked again at the row of numbers listed.

"why deck? You okay?"

"this is mas, I can't believe the food we eat is this expensive. Mas can see we only eat the same shrimp lettuce leaves, it costs almost a million. Waduh mas, this is equivalent to my spending money for twenty days mas." I blabbed while showing a note to Roland.

Mas Roland took the note I thrust, he instead smiled looking at it. I don't understand, Roland was so relaxed when he saw the note.

"sorry, I'll pay all the bills."

"mas, you...

"it's okay, we'll pay." Mas Roland handed his ATM card to the waitress, he just smiled as he shook his head.

"mom, tomorrow-tomorrow we don't have to eat here" I'm still grumbling, while Roland just smiled listening to all I grumbled.

'what the hell is this restaurant, eat once the price can to buy a sack of rice.' I grumbled in my heart, I felt ashamed. I was going to buy Roland, but it was Roland who bought me.

'oh, shame.....
