Limply. Arumi sat on the steps leading to the terrace of his shop. The dark night sky. The sky seemed so lonely, with no moon or stars to accompany it.
Not long after, rain drops began to fall. The longer, the more rain falls to the earth. While Arumi was still sitting on the steps of the stairs. He smiled thinly. At least, tonight he will be accompanied by the roaring sound of rain.
The night air felt increasingly cold, coupled with the swift rain that fell. Arumi then remembered Ryanthi's words.
If you feel lonely, then listen to the rhythm of the gurgling water falling! There is a beautiful hum in each of its patters, which will be able to calm your restless heart.
If you feel bored, then go out and feel the wind! It will take you flying. It will also make you realize, if there is nothing too heavy that he can lift and throw. No matter how big it is, the wind will be much stronger and more powerful.
That's nature. There was not a single one of her that lacked meaning and extraordinary beauty. He will always make us unable to stop admiring him.
Arumi kept pensively alone there. I don't know what he'll do after this? Will he always remain silent and mourn his heart filled with dense fog? Will he not seek to rid himself of the bars that have kept him imprisoned for these three years? How much he tortured himself.
Arumi had realized the meaning of her life bit by bit. There were too many things he missed. He kept waiting for the rainbow, while he never looked up at the sky.
Yes, it is time for Arumi to return to life. It's time to return to being the old Arumi, who is cheerful and full of spirit.
To be honest, Arumi did not like her current self. He felt it was enough to do three years of reflection by living alone and isolating a smile from his beautiful face.
So, what will he do to start it all? The answer was in the afternoon, the next day.
Edgar frowned when he saw that Arumi was ready to wait for him with a large tote bag nearby. The girl stood up in her style that looked very calm. A smile she gave to the man.
"Are you okay?" Edgar asked with an expression on his face filled with astonishment.
"Of course!" Arumi said with great enthusiasm. "Please bring my bag!" Show it to Edgar. He then walked down the steps. A moment later, Arumi turned back. "Be careful! The bag is heavy ..." said Arumi grimacingly looking at Edgar who had some difficulty lifting the bag.
"No problem, Arum. I can do it. I'm used to weight training" said Edgar with his calm. After that, he then followed Arumi's footsteps.
"Did you bring home the bricks in this bag?" Edgar chirped as he walked to the back of his car.
"I put all the problems and burdens of my hodup for three years in that bag" said Arumi casually and instantly made Edgar laugh.
"I feel like I'm too handsome to be your personal assistant?" Edgar joked after putting the bag in the trunk of his car. He then opened the door for Arumi
"Thank you, Ed!" Arumi got into the car and sat quietly. Not to forget, he put on his seat belt.
"It looks like something is different today. Why do I smell the scent of joy here?" Edgar asked after he finished putting his seatbelt on. As usual, he always gave his gentle gaze to Arumi.
Arumi turned to the handsome man next to her. The man who was still looking at him with a million irrefutable temptations. Arumi then smiled wryly.
Arumi looked over with a slight smile on her beautiful face. "I'm just tired of pretending" he said. "I'm tired of being someone I'm not," the girl continued, turning her gaze forward. While Edgar still stared fixed Arumi, even though both hands he put on the wheel.
"Are you sure, Beib?" Ask Edgar.
Arumi. He looked back at Edgar for a moment. "Yes" he replied quietly but sounded filled with conviction.
Edgar smiled softly hearing that. A moment later, he immediately started the engine of his car. Finally, the black sedan drove quietly away from the shop parking area.
Edgar returns with Arumi's bag as the two of them walk into the mansion. Inside, they were immediately greeted by Puspa who was playing with Dinan and his little baby, Jenna.
Puspa's mischievous glances begin to tease Arumi when he sees Edgar coming with his sister-in-law. While Arumi did not make a naughty glance from his brother-in-law. He was more interested in his nephew's mangosteen.
"Hi, Dinan," greeted Arumi warmly. The little boy who was playing on the floor turned his head while sticking his tongue out at Arumi. It made Edgar laugh at once.
"Dinan! Don't be like that!" Sergey Puspa. His eyes glared at his eldest son. However, Dinan did not care about it at all. The child refocused on his activities. Anxiously, Arumi pinched the chubby cheeks of her little niece.
"Aunty! You're so mean!" Dinan protested while telling Arumi who was just laughing while sticking out her tongue. Arumi was very happy to tease the child, not even infrequently until Dinan to cry.
Not long after, there was the sound of Keanu's car entering the courtyard. Puspa stood up immediately. He should welcome the husband who just came home from his busy life.
"Arum, take Jenna for a second!" Puspa Message. Then he went to the exit.
After Puspa's death, Arumi then approached Jenna who was asleep on her small mattress. Arumi looked at the tiny baby with a face filled with astonishment. There was a sense of haru in his heart.
"He's very funny" Edgar said. He watched the sleeping baby. "Are you not interested in having one too?" Tempt the man again while glancing at Arumi who immediately glared at him.
Arumi did not have time to answer questions from Edgar, because at that time Keanu and Puspa were present in the room.
"Hi, Ed. How are you?" Sapa Keanu's. He greeted Edgar who stood up and greeted him warmly.
"I'm fine, thank you. It's busy, huh?" Edgar began to mince words. He then followed Keanu to the living room and sat in one of the chairs there.
"Not really," Keanu replied. "There's just a little business" he continued. Keanu smiled and greeted Dinan who came to him. The boy then sat on his lap.
"Since when have you been in Indonesia?" Ask Keanu. He began to invite Edgar to have a casual conversation.
"It's only been a few days. There's a new project I'm taking care of. So, I'm gonna stay a little longer here" Edgar explained.
Keanu. "How are you doing in France? I saw your profile in one of the online media yesterday. Their review of you is very good," flattered Keanu. Sometimes he rubbed the hair of his eldest son, who was still busy sitting on his lap.
Edgar smiled broadly. That guy is so cute. He is smiling cheap and also looks very friendly. Maybe that's why he can attract many women in his life. Of course, other than for material reasons. Edgar is an amazing package.
"They're too much" said Edgar. "When are you planning on going to Europe?" Ask the man with a charming smile.
Keanu sighed deeply. He then glanced at Dinan who was then struggling spoiled to him. "Eitherway. We haven't been able to visit my father's grave yet" Keanu replied. He then looked towards Arumi who was sitting not far from the living room. The girl was waiting for Jenna to wake up.
"You know for yourself, no, for three years Arumi has been acting strangely" Keanu said in half a whisper.
Edgar then turned his gaze to Arumi for a moment. After that, his gaze returned to Keanu. "I think he'll start coming back to him soon. I saw something different from him this afternoon" Edgar said.
Not yet had Keanu reply, suddenly Dinan interrupted the chat of the two men of French descent. "Daddy, I have a new toy" the boy said, showing Keanu a black rat. "His name is Edgar" continued Dinan making Keanu and Edgar equally stunned.
"Dinan, why is his name Edgar?" Keanu asked with a bad taste to Edgar.
"Tante Arum gave him the name," replied Dinan innocently.
