Kayla and Lisa are currently in a cafe not far from the hotel where Rayhan and Clara's engagement will take place.
After trying hard to persuade Kayla, now Lisa must go back to persuade the girl. His article since the car was Kayla again lost confidence and undo the intention to come to the event.
Kayla glanced at Lisa, who was playing on her phone and occasionally sipped her order drink.
The girl who had dressed up in such a way was pouting waiting for Candra and her two minions named Doni and Agung.
"Assalamualaikum Ay." Alex's voice rang out in the distance, Kayla and Lisa turned to look for the voice master.
Lisa again stunned when she saw Alex's appearance tonight, the crossbred man came wearing a batik motif shirt typical of famous people.
"Be careful zina eyes." The pat on her shoulder from Kayla made Lisa wake up, then smiled awkwardly.
"Waalaikumsalam," Kayla smiled and shifted her chair to allow Alex to sit on her right side.
"Why is this Lex? Aren't you afraid of being late?"
"Well, what are you doing here, Ay, not afraid of being late?" Alex asked back, making Kayla shake while scratching her head wrapped in hijab.
"We're waiting for Candra as well as her two minions did not come from earlier." Whispering Lisa while stirring her drink, the girl was increasingly unable to resist the annoyance waiting for Candra who had not yet appeared his nose.
"Oii bro, are you here too?" Candra's witty voice rang out, before long Doni also appeared and patted Alex on the shoulder. While Agung who always came last, immediately sat on the left side of Kayla.
"Assalamualaikum Kay..," His greeting was friendly with a smile, making Kayla who was just silent while looking down then turned her head and smiled.
"Waalaikumsalam, Great Brother." His reply was gentle, making Agung smile even more widely. If you can be honest, Since first meeting Agung has been sympathetic to Kayla.
There was another side of the girl that made her a little interested.
"Great Woi, gausah lo kampret mode!" Shouted Doni who was sitting next to Candra, the man was already busy chewing on the food ordered by Lisa.
"Whisper lo ah, kaga my mode!" Grand snort threw a sharp glare at his best friend.
"Btw why the panya stuck here dah, her engagement event the boss will pause again, if late dateng fear not to part of my cake." Chirps Doni around, inviting sharp glances from everyone.
"Otak lu food doang contents, already rich face relief temple in makeup in. do not body lo also stretch,"
"Well, the more vulnerable you are if no one wants to." Lisa added as Candra cursed her best friend, which made Doni look straight at her and prepare to throw a fist at Candra.
But someone made them turn to the source of the voice, and found Rayhan standing not far from the table where they were gathered.
Rayhan who wore a white coat and a hairdo that was neater than usual made them amazed. The expressionless gentleman stood relaxed with both hands stuffed into his pants pocket.
Rayhan walked over, approaching Kayla who was sitting between Alex and Agung, at a safe distance of course.
"Assalamualaik." Sapa Rayhan, then pulled out a chair to sit down.
"Getishalight." Answer all of them compact. Alex and Agung who were originally busy looking for the topic of conversation with Kayla became silent, as well as Lisa and Candra who were acutely bucolic was being quiet. A doni? The man seemed oblivious to Rayhan's arrival, still busy spending the food at the table. Because of Doni's principle, nothing is more important than eating..
"Wesss wagelaseh who wants to officially fiancee, her handsome delay." Agung approached Rayhan, then poked Rayhan's chin while twisting one eye. Rayhan suddenly widened his eyes, then brushed off the hand of Agung.
"Cockfuck, don't touch me. I'm still holy,"
The behavior of the two men invited laughter from all of them, except Kayla. The girl had only been bowing since Rayhan's arrival.
Handsome, Rayhan is handsome. What's more tonight, with more tidy formal attire, not as usual.
But Kayla realized, if this handsome man in front of her, the man whose heart had been imprinted for a long time would soon have another girl.
Tonight will be a witness, if there is no chance for Kayla to be with Rayhan. Although it is difficult to accept reality, but we as humans can what if God has determined?
"I want to talk to you." Rayhan's voice broke Kayla's long daydream. Rayhan stood up, then approached the navy veiled girl.
Kayla was still silent as she looked at Rayhan, while Alex was already staring dislikely.
Rayhan pulled the girl's hand, making Kayla rebel in surprise.
"Please brother." Kayla rebelled, but Rayhan's hand was too strong to grip her arm which was covered in long clothes and a dangling hijab.
Regardless of Kayla's refusal, Rayhan still pulled the girl towards the exit. But Alex's shout and Kayla's sudden step stopped making Rayhan turn.
Rayhan stared dislikefully, as he saw Alex also clutching Kayla's left hand. Rayhan doesn't like her girl being touched by someone else!
Kayla slammed into Rayhan and Alex's hand, then away from the two men who were staring at each other.
"Why lo?" Rayhan asked nonchalantly, his hands were already clenched to hold back the emotions.
"Do you want to talk about what Ay has to drag her around?" Alex asked ketus, the man was also holding back emotions because of Rayhan's treatment earlier.
"No need to know," answered ketus. "Ninja I'd like to talk to you for a second." Rayhan tried to slow down his voice, although in the heart stored explosive emotions.
Kayla was speechless, while glancing at Alex and Rayhan alternately. "No papa Lex, you go in with the others. You must be laper, right?" Kayla replied after being silent for quite a while.
Hearing Kayla's reply, the sweet smile on Alex's lips was wiped away instantly. The man nodded while smiling softly, a sense of disappointment filling the recesses of his heart. Realizing the fact that her much loved girl was apparently preferring to come with Rayhan.
Alex turned around, then patted her chest feeling tight. "Sorry Alex," Kayla's soft voice sounded. Alex looked over, then nodded. While Rayhan just ruffled his waist to see Alex who walked away.
❤❤❤
The gurgling rainwater that slowly fell down, began to wet the earth. So is this cafe, some visitors began to run for shelter, Kayla and Rayhan standing in the distance of half a meter in front of the cafe.
Rayhan stared at the distance, cars were passing through the streets. The man exhaled a long breath, then turned to the girl beside him.
"Bag again lo, why does it keep raining?" Said Rayhan, the man re-remembered his time with his adored girl. In the past, after the event at the Lisa boarding house was caught in the rain, when Rayhan lost consciousness at the gate also rained heavily, yesterday when he met in the park, even now it was raining.
So, whether the rain is a sign that nature is sad to see their togetherness. Or is nature sad, seeing two people who are waiting for each other never meet?
"Haha, yes, brother. Why yah?" The girl was shocked, there was a sense of sadness Kayla wanted to Rayhan. But a towering high wall named engagement has always been a hindrance.
If Kayla had been a little selfish, it might have been possible for the girl to express her heart to Rayhan. Expressing rejection, because Kayla does not want Rayhan to belong to someone else. But the girl was quite aware, all of this was God's destiny.
"Well, if it doesn't rain, I'll leave, and I'll miss it again. So you have to be grateful, rain is grace." Rayhan laughed loosely, his row of white teeth visible, as well as dimples that made him more handsome.
"Alhamdulillah," Kayla did not respond to Rayhan's jokes, although most of the man's words had a point, including longing.
"Ninja, if I leave, are you sure I'll come back here one day" Rayhan glanced at Kayla's chest. He made the girl startle and turned around.
"Well that's not what I mean, your brain's a dirty mind aja haha." Rayhan laughed, then pulled the girl's hijab back to face her.
"I mean, will one day I still be the owner of your heart?" This time Rayhan's voice sounded solemn, the look in his eyes implying great expectations.
Kayla was like a dejavu, the girl was silent thinking about Rayhan's words. Who knows how the content of the heart, can change over time or still wait for certainty.
"God is so flipping through my heart, no one knows what is ahead of him. And Ray's brother has to learn to accept Clara. Maybe he's the best for Ray." It hurt, but Kayla kept saying that line.
As a reminder to Rayhan and to himself, must be breastfed.
Rayhan let out a long sigh, then inwardly he had already made a decision on how to proceed.
"Okay, I say ninja. Take good care here, whatever happens remember my feelings stay the same." Rayhan smiled, looking closely at Kayla's face which was partially covered with a veil.
Wanted deeply in his heart to hug the girl, as a farewell greeting. But Rayhan held back, his heart's intention was to establish himself to be a proper priest for Kayla.
Rayhan took a few steps closer to Kayla, both of them looked as if they were reluctant to turn. With all the courage he had, Rayhan patted the top of the girl's head. Kayla closed her eyes, as a warm clap was repeatedly felt at the top of her head.
Heart, heart why recur? Lirih Kayla in her heart, her heartbeat raced fast. The same feeling every time I was near Rayhan.
Slowly the hand movements began to descend, sweeping the part of Kayla's face warmly. Then stopped at her nose, Kayla opened her eyes wide as Rayhan pulled her nose.
The man laughed, dragging Kayla's nose roughly to the right and left. The girl even innocently followed Rayhan's hand.
"Gue says ninja, don't miss. Assalamualaikum."
"Well I'll see you at the hotel, I won't miss Ray." Reject Kayla spontaneously, making Rayhan who had walked then look again.
"Gue is not a hotel, I want to find a dowry to later menggelamar lo. It can't be just me Pinang you with Bismillah rich movie title." Seloroh Rayhan while waving his hands with a sweet smile they lipped.
Kayla frowned in surprise, the girl focused on the hotel. Rayhan said he wasn't at the hotel, so where was he?
Rayhan nodded softly, reassuring himself. Slowly the man walked in the rain.
"Sister Ray." Kayla's voice rang out, making Rayhan's steps again come to a halt. But the man couldn't look back.
Rayhan closed his eyes, a drop of clear water slid down his cheek.
Wait for me Ninja, wait for me to come back again. Maybe this time we'll split up a little longer.
Rayhan rushed over, leaving Kayla who was still standing speechless staring at the back of the man who was starting to move away. Not long after he disappeared into the car.
Kayla cried softly, the girl closed her mouth as hard as possible so that her sobs did not come out.
"Sir to the airport." Rayhan said to the driver who had been waiting in the car because of the papa's orders.
It's been a painful breakup, but do you know? Two people who love each other but have to separate it is much more painful than the separation of two people who are not in line.
