The Lover In Dream

Differ

Rio could not say much when he came home with Naya, he even kept his distance while walking with the woman. The best thing he could do was to let Naya wear her jacket. While carrying his bike, Naya and Rio enjoy Bandung at night. With many downtown Bandung, as well as people passing by, Nayapun just silent, occasionally he checked his phone. Actually Iksan offered them to hitchhike by car, but Naya and Rio chose to walk.

Rio knew, Naya's facial features and behavior changed after hearing the question that Andre had asked during the meal together earlier. But Naya could only answer that question with a smile. Rio did not know why Naya had changed after hearing the question, because she did not know about the Iksan family at all, and Iksan never told her about his family at all. That made him feel he had no right to ask Iksan or Naya any further questions. Arriving at the boarding house, Naya entered the room without saying a word.

It was late, it was already past twelve o'clock at night. But Rio was unable to sleep due to thinking about his new project given by Iksan this afternoon. This is his first big project, and it cannot fail. His mind was piqued because it was filled with spirit making him unable to sleep. He grabbed the cigarette on the table and rushed out of the room towards the roof.

"Not slept?" Sapa Rio when he saw Naya also standing there, while enjoying a bottle of sake brought from Japan some time ago. He stared straight at the building filled with night lights. But his gaze was unguided, he was daydreaming.

"You?" Said Naya while giving her a bottle of sake.

Rio shook his head then smiled.

Naya sighed deeply, while continuing to chug the drink from her glass. He hasn't spoken for a while. But then he smiled bitterly.

"We are different" muttered Naya breaking the silence of the night.

"Hmm?" Rio Timpal.

"Sir Iksan is not my brother" Naya said grimly.

Rio was a little surprised to hear Naya's confession, finally he could understand why Andre's question could not be answered just like that and why his face and attitude changed after that. Rio did not know what to comment, he was also confused about what to position himself as Naya. Even if Naya had to tell him that tonight, she would prefer not to leave her room.

"We were born to different mothers, Ka Iksan was born to a woman who was officially married by Father. As for me, I was born to a woman not even loved by Dad" Naya told the publication.

The words just flowed from his mouth, regardless of him being affected by alcohol. Somehow Naya herself felt comfortable when she had to talk to Rio, while staring at the flickering lights. Makes it look like a star.

"Just because you wanted a daughter, you decided to take me and separate me from my real mother" Naya continued.

"At first Mom accepted me, but then she looked more like she kept pretending and always differentiated me from Ka Iksan when we grew up"

"Born from a rich family, having everything, feels easy, but that only applies to Ka Iksan. The shadow and speech of the mother who always said that I was not their biological child continued to ring until I finally decided to go to Japan"

"As long as it's only Kaka who's always been fair, he's treated me like there's nothing different between us. But the more he tried to do that, the more I felt that we were really different" she explained.

Rio saw the tears that were starting to fall, but Naya raised her head to the sky. Making tears just pool in his eyes and fall through the corner of the eye. Rio's still flinching. He said nothing to Naya's story, and didn't want to question anything.

"i will keep trying, assuming that these differences never exist"

"Although that fact can't be changed"

Naya's determination that night was round, he re-thought about his dream career in Japan. If he fails this time, he will go again to Japan. Leave all his efforts here.

Naya covered her face whenever she saw the office door open, since morning she cursed herself for being unconscious on the roof from drinking too much sake. He could get to the room because it was carried by Rio. Even he still briefly remembered when consciously carried by Rio. Just then his face was so close to Rio and made his heart suddenly beat fast. This morning, let alone to apologize, imagining Rio's attitude towards her alone had already made her continue to think ugly.

"For Ta" said Rio as the office door opened.

Naya saw him, the woman immediately stood up from her seat. Picking up a glass and running towards the kitchen to avoid Rio. Despite having to drop some files from his desk, he ignores it and leaves the table anyway.

"Die me when I see him" he complained slowly.

"Who did you meet ?" Ask Rio.

"Rio is" said Naya sure.

"Why die?" Ask Rio again.

Naya turned her body around when she realized that the man who asked her was Rio, she smiled awkwardly then bowed her body apologizing for last night's incident.

Rio just kept quiet, then he thrust a bottle of anti-influence at Naya, "I bought it at the supermarket here"

"Is it better ?"

Naya nodded, "A little dizzy anyway. Sorry about semalem yes" he said.

Rio nodded, he then went to his seat. Followed by Naya.

That day Naya and Rio looked so busy that they did not greet each other. Moreover, Rio was wearing Headshet all day because he had to re-examine some music. Several times he went back and forth to Iksan's desk to explain something and threw a smile at Naya as they looked at her.

Silence was silent, Naya noticed Rio. With all his movements. Every now and then he smiled, as he looked at Rio's serious or calm face while listening to the music playing. For some reason, Naya had a good feeling from the first time she met Rio. He was also convinced, because Iksan could not carelessly choose others. And if you look at it, Rio also looks handsome to Naya. Even sometimes Naya was envious when she had to look at Rio's deep dimples, and was disappointed if those dimples disappeared because Rio wasn't smiling.

"Rio already has a girlfriend, don't be careful" Iksan told him.

"Yes already know, you've been ngingetin many times" Gerutu Naya.

"Iksan's boyfriend is his friend Mba Hana, also kema temen" Iksan added.

"Yes, there ah go. Disturb the workman" Kesal Naya.

Iksan left after warning Naya, but it did not make Naya disturbed at all. He still liked to watch Rio from afar. Rio looked different from the others in Naya's eyes. I don't know what, Naya doesn't know either. He just felt like, and comfortable with Rio.
