THE RING LEFT BEHIND
CHAPTER 26 Confession of Wafa
Wafa sat pensively while stirring the drink. He was waiting for someone at the Sahara cafe. The sky-blue gems combined with the blue polkadot pattern of the dongker that he wears add to the natural beauty that Wafa has.
Every now and then he sees an object attached to his left wrist, not too late actually but why time is running so slow. Almost one glass of unceremonious drink. Exactly at 10:00 wib in accordance with the promise that has been agreed Rasya come.
"Assynogaic"
"Walaikumussalam" Wafa looked up and smiled. The forced smile.
Without any invitation Rasya sat in front of Wafa.
"What do you want to eat? We'll eat first!" Rasya's voice was soft. Then call the waiters to order food and drinks that will accompany his meeting this morning.
Wafa pensively no laughter and jokes like before when meeting with Rasya. She thought about how to tell her true feelings to the man who was already considered her brother. Three times the rebuke was not heeded Wafa until the fourth reprimand he grinned.
"I'm sorry" That's all he could say after silence. Then waiters came by giving food and drinks that Rasya had ordered. Two glasses of warm tea and two servings of chocolate cheese toast as well as 2 servings of bolen beans ijo is available on the table.
They eat their food in silence. Until Rasya opened his voice after his toast was finished he ate.
"Why are you, not as you usually keep quiet? The fa...The fa.. The fa..." Rasya waved his hand as Wafa returned daydreaming. Rasya just sighed deeply. Then he dared to touch his hand, it was forced. Wafa. At her sight Rasya was looking at her so deeply.
"What's wrong, why are you daydreaming, what are you thinking?" Rasya asked gently. Wafa shook his head slowly.
"Sister.." he said softly
It was too much for Wafa to be able to tell his true feelings, but he tried to venturate to reveal his heart.
"So I know you love me even you have proposed to me many times to be your wife but I always refuse because I was not ready to get married at that time." Obviously Wafa to the point.
Rasya just smiled with a gaze that could not be separated from his neutrality, whatever the woman would say he would try hard and heartened.
"That means you're ready to get married now?" Wafa nodded slowly.
"I can't give you false hope. I actually feel comfortable being friends with you but just a little sister to her brother can't be more." Wafa was silent for a moment. He sighed
"I'm ready to get married. But I'm sorry I can't marry you" Silent for a moment. Rasya's forehead shriveled. He was stunned by Wafa's words that broke his heart
"Why Fa? Am I too bad for you? Look at me Fa, look at my eyes. If you can see my heart, I love you so much and love you so much. What lack do I have until you don't accept me as your husband? If I am bad in your eyes I will fix it, but please live with me. I will make you happy more than just my love for a sister. I'm begging ya!" Once again Wafa shook his head slowly.
"Sorry, I can't. My sister is too perfect for me. My sister has everything. Big brother is a very nice person, appreciates me, and is loyal. But love cannot be forced. I love other people. And I've accepted her family's proposal" Rasya nodded again. Rasya tries not to be fragile in front of the woman he loves.
"Say who has stolen your heart? Who's the lucky guy to get you?" Wafa did not answer. He was worried that Rasya would be angry if he knew he loved his own best friend. He was worried that Rasya was hurt by his confession.
"If the time comes I'll tell you brother" He said. Rasya smiled wryly.
Remembering last night when he was staying at Alhan's house accidentally heard Alhan's conversation with his mother about Alhan's wedding plans with the girl of his choice. When the parents saw there was Rasya, the mother invited Rasya to participate in the application event that will be held next Sunday. The mother did not tell him who Alhan was going to marry. Rasya is very happy that his best friend is getting married and hopes that he will get married as soon as possible with the girl of his dreams but his wish is not to side with him. The girl in front of him had already refused and was about to marry someone else. It really hurt Rasya. Recently Rasya suffered a broken heart and only with Wafa did he love. Rasya never turned away even though many women of his profession tried to approach him but his heart was still adrift with Wafa. It turns out that the person who until this moment fought for and the ideals to carve a future with him must be extinct until here. Because their hearts clap one hand.
