The sky of Paris today is so bright, Kinara chose to tour around the campus after college. His meeting with Farhan some time ago still disturbed his mind.
"Hey, daydreaming alone", the arrival of Ananta surprised Kinara who was pensive on one of the park benches.
"You are An, like to come suddenly", Kinara stroked her chest.
Ananta smiled and sat down next to his best friend.
"Why daydream? is there a problem?", search Ananta directly.
Kinara smiled faintly, she shook her head.
"Hm, don't think too long, Ra. God gave you a second chance. If you miss it again, the third chance is not necessarily coming back" Ananta said while chewing the chocolate he had bought in the campus cafeteria.
Kinara frowned, astonished.
"I already know everything. You must feel burdened with that, right?", Ananta glanced at Kinara.
"What thing?".
"On Farhan, my brother's friend", replied Ananta lightly.
Kinara was surprised to hear Ananta's reply.
"Did your sister tell you about it?", asked Kinara.
Ananta nodded, "My brother is very close to Farhan and yes you also certainly know if my brother likes you too. He looked so moody a while ago. I forced her to talk and she finally told me everything".
"I hope you're not angry, Ra. I understand your situation, Farhan's condition as well as my brother's. I'm glad my brother could be so heartened to support his best friend and forget his feelings for you. I also agree with what my brother did. I'm sure Farhan is a good man although I don't know him very well yet but my heart believes he is really good" Ananta continued.
Kinara took a deep breath, Ananta's words reminded him of Farhan's figure. What Ananta said was true, as long as Kinara knew Farhan, she had never seen anything bad from Farhan's persona as a man.
"I want my best friend to be happy", Ananta turned her body to face Kinara.
Kinara smiled faintly, "Thank you", she replied shortly.
Time passed and now Kinara had returned to her apartment. His mind grew increasingly confused after the conversation last afternoon with Ananta.
Hi, I just want to let you know if I'm back in Indonesia today. Take good care of yourself here.
A short message from Farhan just read Kinara. I don't know why his heart felt so tight when he read the message.
Yeah, thanks for letting me know. Careful.
That was the only reply Kinara could give.
Meanwhile, at the airport, Farhan is seen sitting waiting for his departure schedule. Giovani is with him.
"How about her, Han?", asked Giovani after Farhan put his phone in a suit.
"I told you" replied Farhan in short.
Giovani patted her best friend's shoulder, "Calm down, Ananta and I must be keeping Kinara here. He may still need time to convince his feelings, with his current condition it is not an easy thing".
Farhan smiled at Giovani's words. The announcement of the plane's departure was heard, Farhan immediately said goodbye to Giovani. Giovani accompanies Farhan's departure with a friendly embrace and a wave of hands.
"Honey.", a voice made Kinara aware.
"Mas...Mas Erlangga", Kinara did not believe the figure he saw.
The figure smiled warmly at him. Kinara immediately scattered her embrace and cried a mouthful.
"Don't cry", Erlangga replied tightly to Kinara's embrace.
"I'm sorry I just saw you back" he continued.
"Mas.i miss, I miss very much" Kinara said amid her sobs.
"I am too, dear" answered Erlangga.
Erlangga loosened her embrace and looked at Kinara's puffy eyes.
"I'm glad to see you're okay without me" Erlangga said gently and wiped away Kinara's tears.
"Darling, I want you to go through the rest of your time happily. Do not doubt your feelings. Farhan is a good man, I believe he will take good care of you", Erlangga grasped both hands of Kinara.
Both of Kinara's eyes were still glazed over, "What do you mean, mas?".
Erlangga smiled sweetly, "Farhan is the man God chose for you and I am happy for that".
"Mas.ta.but..", as yet unfinished Kinara spoke, slowly Erlangga's figure faded and disappeared from before him.
"Thank you for loving me, baby. Now is the time for you to open your heart, and I will be happy", only that voice that Kinara heard as she searched for Erlangga.
"Mas...Mas Erlangga.mas.", Kinara opened her eyes. He woke up from his sleep. Apparently he's dreaming.
Kinara tried to calm herself down. He took a glass of water on the nightstand.
"It turned out to be a dream" he whispered to himself
The dream he had just experienced felt so real. Kinara's memory drifted back, recalling the figure of Erlangga he had just met in his dream.
"Is that really you, mom? why are you leaving so quickly? I still miss you so much" said Kinara Lirih.
He took a picture frame containing portraits of himself and Erlangga. Unknowingly Kinara's tears were dripping. There was sadness and a deep sense of sadness in his heart.
"I love you, mas and I miss, so much" Kinara hugged the picture frame as if she was hugging Erlangga.
His dream made Kinara choose not to continue sleeping. Thought of the clock on the wall of the room, still at three in the morning Paris time. Kinara chose to wudhu and perform the sunna prayer to calm his heart.
"Lord, I don't know if the one in my dream is really my husband or not. But really, I want to send him a message, God. I love and miss him so much. Give him happiness and the best place by Your side", do'a Kinara.
After the sunah prayer, Kinara's heart felt more serene. He was sitting next to the window of the room he had opened. His eyes saw the beauty of Paris which was still decorated with lights.
Erlangga's words again ringed in Kinara's ears. His message to open his heart and give a chance to Farhan so disturbed his heart at this moment.
"Is it true that you want that? Farhan is indeed a good man, but to replace you in my heart is hard" Kinara himself murmured.
Flashes of Farhan's figure also flashed in Kinara's memory. Kinara was completely confused by her own feelings.
