The Sacrifice of Nayra

Stay (Part 2)

The distance between Nayra and Aditya was not that far away, so Nayra could see that Aditya was shedding tears. The two of them looked at each other. Nayra's heart was as sliced as it looked at the droplets of clear water that fell soaking Aditya's cheeks. Nayra's eyes began to glaze over.

'Why do you have to watch all this? Your heart must be very sick. I'm really sorry Mas...'

It just so happens that Rama is focusing on taking photos of Kyara so he does not know that there is Aditya there. Aditya swung his steps. He tried to get close to Nayra. He wants to talk to Nayra. Nayra rounded her eyes. His heart was pounding more and more because Aditya was getting closer to him.

'Oh my God.. Why did Mas Adit come here? What am I supposed to do?'

Suddenly Rama called out to him.

"Nay, let's move to the temple over there!"

Nayra turned to face Rama and Kyara.

"Yes Mas"

Nayra rushed to them. Aditya stops his steps because Nayra instead goes away from him and approaches Rama and Kyara.

"Why did you run away from me, Nay? I need your explanation! Is there no more love in your heart for me? Have you completely forgotten me, Nay?"

Aditya just stood staring at Nayra's back which was getting away. Nayra followed Rama and Kyara moved to another temple. Nayra looked back. Nayra saw Aditya had stopped his steps and was looking at him.

'Forgive me, Mas. Please go! I don't want you to be hurt to see all this. Forget me, Mother! Look for a better woman than me, Nayra said in her heart.

Aditya clenched both his hands.

'I won't give up until here, Nay. Don't call me Aditya if I can't get you back' Aditya murmured inwardly.

Rama took a picture of Kyara. Although still two years old, Kyara is already good at style. His behavior is so cute and adorable that it makes Rama laugh.

Nayra just sat still. I don't know why Nayra was thinking of Aditya. Rama turned towards Nayra. He wanted to take a photo together. But Rama was surprised when he saw Nayra was busy daydreaming.

"You why Nay? Why are you quiet from now on? Aren't you happy to go out with me?"

Nayra was shocked to hear Rama call her. He woke up from his daydream and looked at Rama.

"Emh. I. I'm not pa pa kok Mas"

Nayra looked at the clock on her wrist.

"It's six o'clock. We better go home now. Adzan maghrib"

"Emh.. Alright"

"Let's go home!" rama to Kyara.

"Yes Pa"

Rama also took Kyara. Then they both walked out of the temple area. Rama glanced at Nayra. Then suddenly Rama linked his right hand to Nayra's left hand. Nayra was surprised by Rama's attitude. Nayra looked at Rama sharply. But Rama just focused his gaze forward. Nayra was completely astonished by Rama's attitude today.

'Why did your attitude towards me suddenly change 180 degrees Mas? Have you taken the wrong medication?' inner Nayra.

Rama smiled happily as Nayra did not refuse as she held her hand.

'Today I have your hand Nay. And until any time I will not release it again, ' murmured Rama in heart.

THAT NIGHT

The clock shows at eight o'clock. Bu Aini's restaurant is closed. All of his employees had also gone upstairs to rest. Santi went with them.

Kyara is still playing with Nayra in the living room. While Rama and Mang Dudung were busy chatting on the terrace of the house.

"Hoamm" Kyara yawns.

"Kyara is sleepy, right? We slept in Oma's room, baby!" exclaims Bu Aini who just came out of his room.

"Let Kyara sleep with Nayra!"

"Can't be Nay. Kyara wants to bobo with Oma, baby!"

Aini carried Kyara and took her into her room. Nayra had to give up.

'I must have done it intentionally. He must want me and Mas Rama to sleep alone tonight'

Nayra went into her room. Then Nayra dropped her body on the bed. Nayra looked at the ceiling of her room and began to think.

'Did I sleep on the living room couch tonight? But Mang Dudung will sleep there'

Chequek!

Suddenly someone opened the door to Nayra's room.

Nayra's heart was pounding. Nayra closed her eyes. He pretended to be asleep.

As soon as he entered the room, Rama was surprised when he saw Nayra had fallen asleep. Rama looked at the clock on the wall of the room.

'It's only half nine. Why is he sleeping?' inner Rama.

Rama approached Nayra and sat down beside her. Rama stared at Nayra's beautiful face. Rama caressed that face with his fingers.

"Nay.. You look so pretty when you sleep"

The cup!

Rama put his lips on Nayra's forehead. Then Rama gently rubbed Nayra's lips with his thumb. Nayra's heart was pounding incoherently. Rama began to close his lips to Nayra's. But suddenly Nayra opened her eyes. Rama surprise.

"What is Rama doing?"

"Nay you haven't slept? Why are you pretending to sleep?"

"Who is pretending? I was sleeping" Nayra tried to deny.

"You don't have to lie to Nay!"

"I'm not lying"

Rama just smiled looking at Nayra's face that was reddened. Rama laid his body next to Nayra. But Nayra immediately tilted her body back to Rama. Rama's disappointed.

"You why Nay? Are you afraid of your own husband?"

"I. I'm just not ready Mas" said Nayra still with his back to Rama.

Rama was shocked to hear Nayra's words. Rama was silent for a moment to think while staring at the ceiling of the room.

'Why are you Nay? Don't you love me? Why don't you let me touch you?'

Nayra slowly turned her head back because from earlier Rama was just silent.

"You take it easy, Nay, I won't touch you if you don't allow it"

"I'm sorry, Mom.."

"You don't have to apologize, Nay. I should be the one apologizing to you"

(the voice of Rama)

'Maybe you deliberately punished me, Nay. Because for two years I've been wasting you. I deserve to be punished. I'll wait for you until you're really ready Nay..'

(the voice of Nayra)

'God... Why am I really? Haven't I been looking forward to these moments. But why when Mas Rama wanted it did I reject it? Is it because of Adit? Do I still love Mas Adit?'
