The Love Rhyme of Kawa

SKK 23: Keep the Distance

A sight he had never thought of before, a very frightening sight. Like a nightmare hitting him.

Airin was lying with her mouth foaming, her body was already turning blue and stiff. Zahra cried hysterically, as well as her mother who held little Dira.

Airin was declared dead, destroyed Zahra's heart. Last night was his last conversation with his sister. Zahra stared at Airin's grave, the ground still wet with a sprinkling of flowers. Meanwhile Mr. Latif looks angry, sad, disappointed, raging into one. Ms. Latif was at home due to several fainting spells, so she did not go to the tomb.

"Sister.forgive Zahra" said Zahra while sobbing, as if this incident was his fault. After that, there was nothing more he could say.

After Airin's departure, Mr. Latif further restricted Zahra, no more freedom for the only princess. Airin's previously much freer association, now he must be more vigilant on Zahra. Let no more br*bloom men approach their children, let no more rich men freely profess love for their children, then plant seeds and leave their children for granted.

Anger grew when the man did not want to take responsibility for Airin and chose to leave Airin. Until finally Zahra had to accept all this, the matchmaking with Altaf, even after Altaf was declared dead he did not accept and still consider Zahra had a husband, it was done so that Zahra had limits.

        Zahra's daydreams are cut off, Dira's voice from out there shattering the memories of her past. The little girl thought she was her real mother. Zahra smiled crazily.

"Let me pick up my future" he said softly.

In her innermost heart, she wanted to be a girl her age, who could feel how to fall in love, how she anchored her heart to her choices. Not unwilling to serve his parents, in fact he has sincerely accepted the match and married Altaf although fate says otherwise.

Zahra who later became a beggar can only accept what his father said, even until now his father still has not "let go" Zahra to just love others.

Mayra looked cheerful, she was so enthusiastic about telling her experience photographing on the mountain.

"It was a long time ago, yes, because the legs are not strong up now, so yes it is" he told Kawa. They haven't met for a long time.

"Eh why am I the one who talks a lot, all this time you have never told me even about your life, home, parents" Mayra seemed to protest. Kawa just smiled knot.

"Necessary?" Kawa asked, he saw the girl in front of him, looked relaxed with her white shirt, the girl in front of him was cute.

"Not so, from the beginning know until now do not hear any stories from you that. And you know.I'm still curious about your face, because I swear, your face is not unfamiliar loh" Mayra seemed to bring up her first meeting with Kawa again.

"I told you, my face is the market" Kawa flicked her hand. They were both at the cafe enjoying their coffee.

"Not that I mean, but really...similar...duh..." Mayra tried to think hard.

"Forget it, I don't look like anyone" Kawa dodged. His hand picked up a glass of coffee and sipped it.

"Ah.it is the owner of Arjuna Group.yes" Mayra raised the index finger of her right hand, satisfied with her memory. "Kratom"

"Ah too far you, not...."

"Eh yes yes.similar to doang kali yes, as far as I know the owner of the group who appeared only his daughter who was the girl" said Mayra finally.

"Well" Kawa was relieved, Mayra gave up.

"How is your family then?"

"What?"

Dikira had given up, but still continued Mayra's curiosity about him. "There's...My mother, my father and my sister, are home"

"Oh..so have a sister?"

Kawa nodded, hoping that Mayra would not ask any more about her family. Their togetherness is getting closer, Kawa feels that she has a friend who always gives her cheer and will invite her to know more about this small town. While Mayra seems to have a friend who is suitable to be a pleasant chatter even though Kawa is not the type of guy who talks a lot, she tends to be quiet.

"Later my birthday comes yes" said Mayra next.

"Oh, when?"

"Next week" Mayra laughed.

"Yes, if there is no work schedule"

"I'll ask Papa to give you permission, so that you can come, all your friends you know..what is his name?" Mayra tried to remember.

"Rendra?" Kawa helped.

"Yes.it's Rendra, um.same it's Zahra" Zahra's name is in the name of the person he's going to invite.

"Oh, I'll tell Rendra later"

The birthday he was looking forward to, the first new birthday this time he wanted Mayra to celebrate with special, because there is Kawa.

"Do you have a girl?" mayra asked nyeplos just like that, for a cute girl like her, asking such a thing is not a shame. Kawa looked at the girl with a small smile.

"It's just a smile, have it?" Mayra. His fingers knocked on the table.

"Almost engaged but not"

"Oh.sorry.so open the old wound yes.sorry" Mayra felt guilty, Kawa looks fine, there is nothing to forgive, she was at peace with the situation.

In Mayra's heart was so happy, because Kawa did not belong to anyone. From the first moment I saw Kawa, there was something strange in her heart, the guy seemed to be teasing her heart. You could say this is love at first sight. Although his father alias Mr. Broto always harassed him so as not to date people who are not as level as his family. For Mayra, it wasn't a warning she should listen to.

"Why smile?" Kawa saw Mayra looking at her while showing her a row of white teeth, she was smiling looking at Kawa.

"No, at least I have a chance" Mayra was so stark, words just flowed from her lips. No hesitation, no hesitation.

Kawa simply fell silent, not responding to what Mayra said. For her Mayra was a figure she already considered her sister, looking at Mayra as if she was looking at Blue.

        Kawa's gaze turned to a table, where she saw Zahra sitting with Tania. Their eyes are looking at. Kawa smiled and nodded her head, Zahra looked clumsy looking at Kawa. Zahra's gaze turned to look at Mayra who was sitting at a table with Kawa. Zahra put on her thin smile, then returned busy with her drink and talked to Tania.

Kawa and Zahra had not seen each other for a long time, Kawa sent a message several times but there was no reply from Zahra. I don't know what Zahra was thinking, had Kawa been left out before she struggled more?

Zahra was talking to Tania, occasionally with a smile rising from her lips.

"What exactly makes you unapproachable?" said Kawa in my heart.
