The Trap of Love Assistant Gesrek

Recognition

After dinner with Firlan, Vira gets a call from Ricko.

"Sorry, Brother. Brother called me again, I felt bad," said Vira who gave her promise that she would arrange a way to meet with Ricko.

"Liet down. I understand, really. You will start a business again, so it's natural that you are very busy," said Ricko softly as usual. Nothing had changed from that man, only the two of them had never met again after such a long time.

"Hows it? do you have time tomorrow?" continued Ricko.

"Can, Brother. What time?"

"Jam 12, I'll share the location." Ricko said.

"Ready, Brother! again sorry, huh?"

"Hahahaha, I'm sorry if you come tomorrow, because this person is very important to me." said the man who.

"Yes yes, Brother .. inshaa Allah, I will try to come on time,"

"How's your relationship with Firlan? when do I get your wedding invitations? or maybe you're married and not ngundang brother?" Ricko chases Vira with a question.

"The question is a lot, brother? long time no chat like Brother is getting chatty," said Vira.

"Hey, don't switch the talk of the bad boy! Hahahhaha, actually your mama and papa already want to see you married, Vira." said Ricko.

"I'm young and don't want to get married too soon, hahahah. Brother just go ahead, and print a lot of nieces for me." said Ricko.

"If I get married maybe I'll settle down in a land of people, Vira." said Ricko making a cloud of cloudiness surround Vira's heart.

"No. You must be kidding, right? just one city with you we can't meet. Especially different countries? can-can we meet when our hair is grayish-white?" Vira laughs.

"Seriously, I'm not kidding..."

Vira fell silent, there was a sense of loss that plagued her heart. However Ricko Sudha he considers like a brother to him, the reason why he never met because Firlan was always jealous of Ricko especially when he had lived in Ricko's apartment with his parents after a kidney transplant done Raharjo, Vira's father with Ricko.

After Vira left Ricko's apartment, Vira's parents stayed there for several months. Ricko who incidentally orphaned and finally had been raised by a couple who turned out to be rich had to face the bitterness of having to be an orphan for the second time.

"Vira.." Ricko's voice breaks Vira's daydream.

"Yes,"

"I want to admit something,"

"What is that, brother?

"You just have to listen to what I want to say,"

"Yes, say..."

"Actually, I love you. Even back when I met you at the orphanage when your father took you to the orphanage. Since the colorful candy I kept but you never showed up and when we met again in accident. I thought my encounter with jojo sir in the hospital when he was unconscious was God's way of uniting my long lost love. But I was wrong, the little girl, already had her moorings. And I can only hold it in wishful thinking..."

Vira was just glued to the spot, hearing Ricko express his feelings.

"Don't be burdened with this, I just want to convey what I've been holding on to all my might, because I have to forget it all before finally being united with the person who loves me" Ricko explained.

"Hey, why are you quiet little brother?" Ricko tried to melt the atmosphere back.

"Emhh, i..."

"Don't change, you'll still be my sweet little sister. And if your boyfriend hurts you, you can complain to me, let me take care of him" Ricko said.

"Yes, thank you for being so kind to me and my parents,"

"You guys are like family, even I'm very happy because I can call Mr. Jojo papa," ricko said when he remembered Raharjo who he could call as Mr. Jojo was telling him to call himself papa.

"I feel like I have parents again" Ricko continued.

"Sister deserves it all, even brother deserves all the happiness in this world. I will always pray for you good" said Vira, who wiped away her tears that were powerless not to fall.

"Are you crying, Vira? did I make you sad?" ask Ricko.

"No, Brother. Not at all, I'm just too happy, to have a sister who's very considerate of me,"

"I actually wanted to make you some food, but I was afraid that Brother would get poisoned after eating my food," Vira continued, making Ricko laugh.

"Hahhahahah, actually it doesn't feel that scary, just that you haven't been snuffing salt and pepper," Ricko said to Vira's laughter.

"I was actually curious, when it was actually a stomachache or not while eating my homemade gongso at that time?" ask Vira who suddenly kepo.

"You know what, yeah?"

"Let's know! I'm curious as well" said Vira when remembering Ricko who had eaten his homemade gongso that tastes randomadul bin semrawud, but Ricko seemed to enjoy it very much. Even Vira who cooked it could not taste a spoonful of fruitful food.

"Come, Brother. Tell me..." Vira whines at Ricko.

"Hemmm, how is it? hahaha,"

"Come on, Brother's starting to mengeselin, huh!" Vira sulking.

"Actually after eating that I immediately drink anti-diarrhea drugs, hahhaha.." Ricko's laughter suddenly broke followed by Vira who also laughed considering the miraculous incident.

That night they spent the night laughing and telling stories about the past. Vira is very happy to know a wingless angel like Ricko. The adult and never once was rude to him. Ricko wants to give up his love for Vira, without saying it he will be hard to move forward. And it feels very selfish, if he receives love from another woman but is still overshadowed by love in the past. Her woman deserves her whole heart, with no sense left for another.

Vira can't say much, he can't turn back time. Had Vira been reunited with Ricko first, maybe he could have reciprocated the man's feelings.

After ending her conversation with Ricko on the phone, Vira breaks down her mind. Thinking of what he should do to Firlan.

It is undeniable that the name of love will be difficult to forget just like that, but he is not ready to go further. He was afraid of getting hurt, he was afraid of what Firlan was doing at the moment just to take sympathy from him alone.

"Shall I give him one chance?" muttered Vira while closing her eyes.

"No idea, ah! I'm lazy if I have to love a man who is also loved by other women, like the stock of men has run out in this world," Vira muttered again.
