THE WOUNDED EARTH

HELP RIRIN

***

RIDWAN POV

"Yati, kakak" Ririn said in between our conversation.

I was silent for a moment, trying to prepare and organize the feelings in my heart.

Ririn was still silent, no intention to pick up her phone call.Maybe she was also not ready to answer what later.

"So soon, brother, I replied to Yati's message first" Ririn said breaking the silence between us.

I just nodded my mark, too.

I turned my gaze to the street outside the cafe.My eyes felt empty only my mind nature that went somewhere.

"Yati, it's hard for me to deal with you..."

"It's hard for me to muster up the courage to express this honesty that will definitely hurt this much."

My mind continued to speak in silence until the applause from Ririn regained consciousness.

"Yati want to see me, sister"

"Will you see me now?"

"Come Rin" My long breath interest could be read by Ririn, no doubt implied.

"Sister, try telling me everything so I can help" Ririn urged.

I looked into her eyes, I knew that Ririn could trust me.

"Rin, I really need your help" I said softly.

"Ok, we started from the identity of her real sister," Ririn cut.

I was surprised to not know what I heard.

"I know who my brother is,...Ridwan Firdaus is the only son of a famous mining entrepreneur in Kalimantan, justinak sis?"

"Yes that's right" I answered briefly.

"Why should you cover up your identity?"

"I don't want anyone to know who I am because they'll be friends with me because of my social status."

"There will be no sincerity in friendship anymore, just use it with reason friends and I've already experienced it."

"And surely you'll know, too, that many women approach me but all just look at the material."

"So is that also the reason you left Yati?"

"No, it's different."

"It's all my fault, Rin"

"I am not a man who easily falls for someone, when my heart has chosen it is difficult for me to let go."

"I met Yati, as I know her very simple personality."

"I loved it and the more it grew, the more it was lost in my heart."

"Never fall in love, hurt heart..betrayed ?"lilly looked at me.

"No, he didn't betray me. All of it was purely due to my misunderstanding of him and only realized after hearing the news that he was now lying weakly against the illness in the hospital."

"What's his name?"ririn sela.

"Annisa Az Zahra, my love from childhood.I've known him since he was left by his papa mama because of an accident."

"The car accident that took away the soul of his mother's father as well as the whole spirit of his life."

"Now he's just living with his older brother."

"I went to school with him from Kindergarten to study at the same university."

"She's a kind girl, always liked by a lot of people."

"I'm always by his side, keeping his heart and his love"

"Why did my sister leave him?"cut Ririn impatient."

I took a deep and heavy breath.

"From the beginning I told you all my pure misunderstandings."

I try to start my story...

"That morning as usual I invited Annisa to go to college together, but by the time I got in front of her house I found her lying unconscious on the porch, her nose was bleeding."

"I was worried and immediately took her to the hospital to get treatment."

"The doctor said he had to be hospitalized for treatment as well as a series of other health checks."

"At that time I did not know what caused Annisa to fall unconscious, the doctor wanted to meet directly with the patient's family, namely Kak Yoga, Annisa's birth sister."

"Sir Yoga advised me to go home to rest, even though my heart was heavy leaving Annisa."

"The next day I went back to the hospital to confirm Annisa's condition, but it turns out Annisa has been brought by Kak Yoga."

"I went to the doctor's office looking for the doctor who treated Annisa yesterday to ask for an explanation."

"The doctor only said that the patient's guardian asked for a referral for treatment to another hospital that has more complete facilities."

"I tried calling Annisa's phone number but it wasn't active."

"I called Yoga's phone number repeatedly but it wasn't picked up either."

"Sir, how is Annisa.."

"Annisa where, I'd like to meet." My message.

"We're at the wan airport,"he replied briefly.

"My heart wonders, what's the matter...?"

"Where are they going?"

"Without a second thought, I rushed to the airport.30 minutes drive to get there."

"When I got there I ran around looking for the girl I love"

"My heart was pounding, emotion arose by itself, as I watched the scene before my eyes."

"Annisa is leaning in the arms of a man I don't know, from far away Yoga is busy taking care of their luggage."

"Sir Yoga noticed my presence, he rushed towards where I was standing from earlier."

"Wan, come home.Waste your hope, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed" said Mr. Yoga who then passed away.

"I couldn't bear to watch Annisa's intimacy with the man any longer, I pulled back my footsteps with the pain in my chest."

"I swear to forget everything, the sweet memories and promises I once engraved deep in my heart for her."

"Days passed by weeks, weeks changed by months to years, not feeling the wound was gone without trace as Yati was present in my days."

"Slowly I open the love sheet with Yati, and my parents have given my blessing to immediately formalize our relationship."

"But at the same time, I was reunited with Annisa, during this time she was looking for me to ask for clarity about her missing news from me."

"So now you want to meet Yati to say the word break up?"ririn.

"That's not what I mean, Rin."

I looked into Ririn's eyes,.."Annisa's sick, she's got stage 3 brain cancer and the chances of it being cured are very small" I explained.

"Astaghfirullah.." said Ririn lirih.

"Now if you were in my current position, how would you behave, Rin."

Ririn changed her sitting position and took a deep breath.

"Maybe I'll be next to Annisa to make amends, accompany her until .." she said.

"And I will try to ask for Yati's understanding, even though it sounds a bit evil and selfish" he concluded.

"That's what I'm thinking right now, so I'm asking you for help, Rin." I said expectantly.

"Well, I'll try to talk to Yati but whatever the decision is, you have to be ready to accept her" she said.

"Yes, I know that."

"Thank you Rin, I'm sorry for taking you so far in my troubles."

We parted after we finished discussing everything.

YATI POV

I repeated the phone call a second time, until the end was not answered.

"Maybe Ririn's on the road again so can't answer the phone" I thought.

"Have you come home yet, Rin?"I sent a short message.

Not long,."sorry Yat, it was on the road"he replied.

"I'm home, this,..."

"Tomorrow I'm off, we go to the hospital together yeah.I'll pick you up."

"Everyone wants me to talk to you."

"Now, what the hell are you talking about?"pinta I'm curious.

But there's no reply, '."basic Ririn, it's so much fun to make people curious"my inner.
