The Sacrifice of Nayra
Apparently He..
The man was getting closer to the bench where Nayra and Alina were sitting. He was still jogging with sweat splashing on his face and all over his body. He is seen wearing a sleeveless shirt that shows his burly muscles combined with shorts. There was a small towel hanging around his neck.
He continued to look ahead until his eyes finally fell on a woman he knew very well was sitting on a wooden bench. The man stopped his running. Then he smiled at the woman.
"Nayra!" the man shouted while waving his hand towards Nayra.
The deg!
Alina was surprised when the man called out Nayra's name. The smile on his lips suddenly disappeared. Alina turned towards Nayra.
Nayra who felt her name being called, turned her head towards the source of the voice.
"Mas Adit??" Nayra was surprised to find out that the one who called her was Aditya.
Aditya runs towards Nayra. He did not know that the woman beside Nayra was the woman he helped yesterday.
"Nay, who are you? Where's Rama sir?"
Aditya turned his eyes to the woman next to Nayra. Alina's heart was pounding as Aditya looked at her.
"Mas Rama again bought mineral water. Maybe he'll be back soon" Nayra said.
Aditya and Alina looked at each other. Aditya seemed to remember something.
"It seems I've seen you before. Have we met before?" ask Aditya to Alina.
"Emh. Yes. You helped me fix my car yesterday, didn't you?" alina asked with a smile.
"Oohhh, yeah I just remembered. It just so happens that we can meet here"
"What?? So it was Mas Adit who helped you yesterday, Alina?" ask Nayra. He seems to not believe.
"Yes Brother. Yesterday it was this who helped me. Does your brother-in-law know him?"
"Sister-in-law??" Aditya furrowed his brows. He was surprised that Alina called Nayra as sister-in-law.
"Emh.. Mas Adit, this is Alina, his sister Mas Rama" Nayra introduces Alina to Aditya.
"What's? So you're Rama's brother?" ask Aditya to Alina.
"Yes. Do you know my sister?"
"Rama's brother is my boss in the office"
"Oohh.. So you're in the same office as my sister?"
"Yes"
Alina was very happy after knowing that the man worked in an office with Rama.
"It turns out the world is so narrow, isn't it?" Alina.
"Yes. I really did not think that you were his brother, Mr. Rama. We didn't meet yesterday, did we? Recognize my name Aditya" Aditya extended his right hand. She was greeted by Alina.
"I'm Alina. Just call Alina don't call Ma'am!"
Nayra still could not believe what she saw. He really did not expect that the man Alina meant was Aditya.
'Does that mean Alina is in love with Mas Adit? Oh my God! Why is the world so narrow?' nayra murmured in the heart.
Shortly afterwards, Rama appears with three bottles of mineral water in his hand. Rama was astonished to see Aditya there.
"Aditya? You jogging too?" ask Rama.
"Yes, Mr. Rama"
"Do you want a drink? This is for you" Rama extended a bottle of mineral water to Aditya.
"Thank you sir" Aditya welcomed the drink.
Then Rama gave the other two bottles to Nayra and Alina.
"You don't drink Mas? This is for Mas aja" Nayra extended the bottle back to Rama.
"No pa pa pa. I can buy it again" Rama stepped up to go buy another drink.
"Let me accompany Mas. Alina you're here first!" exclaim Nayra.
"Yes Brother"
Nayra went with Rama. It just so happened that Nayra wanted to talk to Rama. As they walked some distance away from Alina and Aditya, Nayra started to open her voice.
"Mas, you know. It turns out that the person who nolongin Alina yesterday was Mas Adit"
"What?" Rama suddenly stopped his steps then stared intently at Nayra.
"Why is it a coincidence?" ask Rama again.
Rama was silent for a moment to think.
"Would we just match them up?"
"What's? Rama is no longer joking, right? Then Mas Adit will be my sister-in-law?"
"Why indeed? Aren't you sincere if Aditya is with Alina?"
"It's not so. Don't misunderstand me first! I also have no feelings for Mas Adit"
"Then we don't have to interfere! Just leave them! Aditya also does not necessarily like Alina. He still loves you"
Rama continued his steps somewhat annoyedly. Nayra was wrong. But in the end he smiled.
'Mas Rama, I'm glad that you're jealous like that. That's a sign you really love me' Nayra thought.
***
"Please sit down!" Alina let Aditya sit next to her. Aditya sat down next to Alina and wiped the sweat off her face with a small towel hanging from her neck.
For a moment they both just kept silent. Not a word came out of their mouths. They just stared at the scene in front of them. I don't know why the atmosphere is awkward. Until finally Aditya opened his voice to melt the atmosphere.
"Emh.. Alina, are you in college or are you working?"
"I was in college in Bogor. It's semester seven"
"Oohh.behold dong's thesis"
"Yes"
The mood was quiet again. Alina then asked.
"If Mas Aditya himself works in what part?"
Aditya smiled before answering Alina's question.
"I'm just a drafter. I really wanted to be an architect long ago. That's why when I was in college, I majored in architecture. But because I'm not experienced, yes, I was told to be a drafter first"
"Oh yeah? Sama dong kayak Kak Rama's. Kak Rama was originally only a drafter, then for a long time he could be a great architect like today thanks to his hard work. He is a hardworking and independent type. He can succeed on his own"
"Your brother is great. Some time ago he also won the 'Best Employee of the Year' award at the office"
"Yes. We're all proud of him. It's easy someday you can be like Kak Rama"
"Aamiin.."
The two of them had a conversation until Rama and Nayra returned.
"Alina, let's go home! It was noon today" Rama told Alina.
"Yes Alina. Maybe Kyara is awake. She's afraid she's crying out for me" Nayra chimed in.
"Yes Brother"
"I also want to go home" Aditya added.
Rama, Nayra and Alina part ways with Aditya and return to their homes.
