The Past...Ye

"Excuse me Mr. Abay, someone wants to see you." Nita Abay's secretary said.

"Who's Nita?" tanya Abay still with the files in her hand.

"A woman sir, she won't reveal her identity.."

Abay paused for a moment with his file, like thinking who the woman who wanted to meet him was out there without revealing her identity. Is it possible Runa? But he probably doesn't know Abay's office.

"Yes already, tell me to come in.."

Nita nodded then went out. Not long after that a beautiful woman appeared behind the door. With her black hair straight, her fair skin, so dazzling. Moreover, he wears a silver blouse fitting the body with a crate that is not too high, featuring a level neck. With a black skirt over her knees.

"Good day Mr. Abay." he said with a smile. His voice is so shady.

Abay did not immediately answer his greetings. Because time seemed to stop when he felt he lost Runa, this woman who set him down, encouraged him. Trying to remove her wound because of Runa. And when Abay tried to apply for jobs at several companies and repeatedly failed, this woman who strengthened him, gave motivation and finally Abay could rise and be as successful as it is today.

"Mayra?" Abay assured once again that the woman in front of him was really Mayra. Such a good female friend.

Mayra stepped up while continuing to smile, "Surprise..!"

Abay immediately hugged the woman, who was hugged did not dodge it was like very longing for the figure that embraced it.

"Why don't you say - say the hell if you want to play in Jakarta. I can pick you up at the airport" Abay said, releasing his arms.

"If you say - say it means no surprise dong. Aren't you? The surprise of me actually worked.."

"Yes, yeah..."

"But I'm bothering you? The boss is busy..."

"Well, not really. But how so tumben gini want to play here in what order?"

Mayra was so confused herself to answer in what order? Because he deliberately came to Jakarta only to meet and miss the man he loves, Abay.

Yes, Mayra knew that love grew with her closeness to Abay first, Abay her neighbor and Abay was her little friend as well when they were still in Yogyakarta. When he knew Abay already had a lover there was a sense of disappointment in him and when he knew Abay broke up from his lover, Mayra became confused how to express his sadness at that time. Does he have to be happy? Because his chance to get close back to Abay will be realized.

But seeing Abay as being so devastated made him feel sad too.

It was in between that sadness that Mayra tried to comfort Abay. Abay also seems to be forgetting his own sadness. Once Mayra wanted to express her feelings to Abay, but soon she also dismissed her intentions. Afraid, if Abay knew his feelings, Abay would stay away from him. Let it be, for now let it be like this. Mayra enjoyed it.

"Hey May, asked if she was dumb..."

Mayra flinched,"Oh yeah, that's.. Mm.. Actually, I came here on purpose. My mother said, Father, keep your mother here for your nengokin. Being in a quiet house, right, I think I should also nengokin you." he said with a smile.

"Yes, at least I should know, have you recovered from your turmoil? Or even have a new car?" Mayra deliberately, who knows Abay even already has a new girl again.

If Abay still does not have a lover, Mayra will express her feelings.

Because he deliberately came far from Yogyakarta to Jakarta to meet Abay to let Abay know that Mayra loved him, he did not want to regret later could not reveal all this.

"May...May.. You exist - there is. Who else is upset - galauan? There's no..." Abay smiled.

Mayra smile. Then wait, continued Abay's sentence. Just that, just up there? Not just at the end of the sentence Mayra asked 'have you got a new car?' but why isn't there an answer to that part? Does Abay not remember answering that part? Ah, that's why Mayra doesn't want to repeat that part again.

"May, I'm the same father would be very happy to know you're here.."

Mayra just nodded.

Abay glanced at the clock in his hand. Then clean up the laptop and the files on his desk.

"We go to lunch yuk? You must be a laper, right?" bring Abay.

And Mayra did not refuse at all.

"Bay, ask dong for help, find me a contract. But if you can that's not too far from where you live. Yea?" mayra said while eating her lunch.

"Why should I contract? At home I am." replied Abay casually.

Mayra surprised. "In your house? What will the people around you say, if there is a woman who is not your muhrim, but lives in one house?"

Abay stopped chewing his mouth and smiled, "May, don't you remember? At home there is the same Mother as the Father, there is also Dita. Some of you I think of as my own sister. We're family, remember?"

Mayra was silent trying to digest the words Abay just now said. Think of it like our own sister, our family? Oh no, Abay really never realized the existence of Mayra all this time. Mayra who is always there for him, pay more attention to him, even considered as a brother?

"May, that's it... Why bother again? So how's?"

Quiescent. No words came out of Mayra's mouth.

"Yes, we went to our house to surprise Mom. Okay?"
