The Journey of Young CEO Love

Part 93's. Like Dreams

Ara sat in front of her shop, looked at the people who came one by one and sat down to choose the table that was provided there. Aura said, she deliberately added a few tables and chairs as Ara was being treated for the visitors who were starting to grow. Many of the young people who come every week night just to spend time in the store, especially the view at night is really suitable to spend time there. The development of the Ara store is quite rapid, Aura adds several chairs and tables, the main menu is also not just a cake. There are already some foods and snacks as in the cafe generally. Ara shop has been transformed into a mini cafe that became a subscription place for young people these days.

"Come, Ra. The night air is not good for you" said someone who was standing next to him.

Ara looked up at Aldi who was now also staring at him. During his time here, the man used to visit him every night. Ara just kept quiet and then turned her eyes back to the several pairs of teenagers who came tonight. Ara remembered Gio again. Somehow Ara could forget that man. It felt so difficult if he had to eliminate Gio in his mind. Ara sighed softly, every time she remembered Gio, she would also always remember his son. Well, his son's with Gio. The child who was a few days ago was still in his stomach but now, he was already absent. Ara stroked her queen stomach, it still felt like a dream. The continuous loss he experienced, managed to ravage his life. After the loss of his father and his mother, his life was never good, always abandoned and hurt. Sometimes Ara thought, how much God hates her to always take what she has in life. Ara's request is not much, she just wants to live a quiet and happy life like everyone else. I don't know what sins he committed in the past until God gave him this punishment.

Aldi who saw Ara daydream again with a hand that stroked his stomach, sighed softly. Already thousands of ways Aldi and Aura did to comfort Ara, returning the woman as before, but absolutely nothing worked. Everything is the same, Ara still does not want to talk much.

"He is sad if you see sad continue to be like gini," Aldi's speech managed to divert Ara's attention.

Such words he always heard when others calmed him down, but it was also that speech that could always make him rise up. He is the type of person who does not want to make the people he loves feel sad.

"Your baby, your mother and father will be sad to see you continue" Aldi said again.

"As for how I should be, there is no longer any source of my happiness" replied Ara. It was the longest sentence he had put out after the incident a few days ago.

"I know it's all heavy, Ra. But it is not appropriate that we also dissolve in sadness," said Aldi.

The man pulled up the chair and sat down beside Ara, looking at the woman who was now also looking at him with his dear gaze.

"The laws of nature have always been like that, Ra. There are times when people will leave and there are times when people will come. That's called the life cycle" Aldi said.

"For example, today you are like me, tomorrow we don't know if I go or if you leave. Either it goes to another area or it goes to the infinite,"

"Unlimited?" ask Ara slowly.

Aldi nodded in agreement before saying, "Eternity. A place where we're not going anywhere anymore. Our last place after in the world,"

"The world is full of theatrics, puzzles and tests. If there is no such thing, it is not living its name. Like I said, people come and go. Nothing is forever, and it's all a test."

"As human beings we are required to accept and live it as sincerely as possible. Never feel alone, because even though there is no man beside you, there is still a God who is always there as a place to go back and complain,"

"But God doesn't love me, Al. He took everyone I love."

Ara sighed softly then looked up at the stars scattering in the sky.

"No, never think like that, Ra. God put you to the test because God knows you can do this the most, not anyone else" said Aldi firmly.

"People's trials may not be as heavy as yours, but others' shoulders won't be as strong as yours. There are a lot of people out there who even test a lot harder than you" continued the brown hoodie.

"Look at that" Aldi pointed to the brightest star among the others. Ara followed Aldi's index direction.

"He's there, looking at you, looking after you, and always smiling from up there. He went to prepare a house for his mother and father in heaven" Aldi said.

Ara turned to look at Aldi who was now also looking at him with a small smile. Ara was a little calmer after hearing the few sentences Aldi had uttered to calm her down.

"Thank you for reminding me," said Ara sincerely.

"Come dong young mama, get up again. Face the world again like this. You will never be able to face a hard world if you weaken like this" Aldi said cheeringly.

Ara chuckled softly looking at Aldi who had already clenched his hands and raised him up high giving Ara some spirit.

"Thank you" said Ara again.

Aldi chuckled, ruffled Ara's hair, then pulled the hoodie to cover Ara's head. The night wind here is cooler than the night wind in the city. The aura inside the store smiled faintly at the interaction of the two. The beautiful eyes of the woman looked closely at Aldi, and then her sweet smile puffed up.

"Come in, the night wind is not good for you" orders Aldi who is called Ara. The woman went into the store and helped Aura. Although it was already banned, it was still not Ara's name if it wasn't stubborn.

"What lo?" aldi asked here at Aura who kept looking at him with a stifled smile. Aldi sat on the chair facing directly against Aura. The woman was holding a pen and a book, not even what she was going to do Aldi knew.

"Apaan anyway, come directly to hurry," said Aura.

The two had only known for a few days but somehow, if the two met there was only a quarrel that never had an end.

"Well, do you smile at me?" tanya Aldi made Aura snort in annoyance.

"Such PD," he said here.

"Lo yeah...."

"If you guys keep fighting, I'll drag you to the head," the cry from the kitchen made the two halted.

Aura and Aldi stared at each other then a few seconds later, the smiles of the two developing just like that.
