Wulan In Night Wound
Chapter 43 Meet You Again
Anggara Ryo? How could he be here? What's he here for? Inner wondering.
"I'm down for a bit Bune, there's my friend. Sky Titip, huh?" I pamitku by pointing at the man who was talking to Pakne.
I opened the car door and got out. Ryo looked surprised to see me get out of the car.
"Wulans?" muttered.
"Hi, Yo. Pakne, he's a friend of Wulan's" I said introducing Ryo.
"Oh, yes, he was. Nyariin you, Nduk. Get in first, Pakne let's get in the car. The sky let be cuddled with Bune" Pakne said.
"Corn, Pakne"
"Yuk, Yo. Enter first. We'll talk inside" I'll take Ryo.
Ryo took his bike across the street. Matic motor with red-black paint mainstay since entering SMA. And then walking after me trudged into the house.
"Sit down, Yo. What do you want to drink?" let me just relax.
"You're out of the water?" asked Ryo who turned out to be paying attention to my limping path.
"Three days yesterday. The male. I named the Sky. Cool, right?" selorohku.
Ryo just kept quiet and didn't answer my sloppies. Seems confused as to what to say.
"I make a drink jerk off, yes" I said to leave.
"It's the Bune that makes it, Nduk" said Bune on the doorstep between the living room and the indoor room, carrying a tray on top of which was a cold tea bottle and snack setoples.
"Sorry, so take some Bune"
"Thank you, Mom"
"Yes, equally. Please chat. Bune stay inside first" said Bune.
Ryo and I nodded at the same time.
"Lan, I...." Ryo was confused as to what to say.
"You healthy?" I try to melt the atmosphere.
"Healthy, Lan"
"Good school?"
"Fluent. You?"
"Surfing too" I replied briefly.
Then silence for a few moments.
"I was wondering about Petra's son a few days ago. That's why I can find you. You are famous as well" seloroh Ryo.
"Yes, he is famous. The only college student with a bulging stomach in Petra. I've managed to set a record of wealth" I said with a chuckle.
"You're getting pretty, Lan" Ryo said.
"You know why girls look so pretty?"
"Treatment is possible" Ryo replied as he shrugged his shoulders.
"No no no. Wrong answers. Really, because I'm an ex. Hahaha" selorohku's.
Ryo just smiled wryly.
"I.. kangen" said Ryo briefly.
"Hmmm. Then?" tanyaku relax. Looking at Ryo now there is no more pounding as I used to think. Ryo has become someone else for me. Just a friend or acquaintance. No more and no less.
Ryo was silent.
Ever since I knew Ryo, I've understood Ryo so well that he's a family man. His family is at the top of his priorities. Seen by how he tells his ideals that want to be able to help his parents send his sister to college.
"I'm sorry" he murmured.
"I've forgiven you" I said with a smile.
But not forgetting. I continue in my heart.
"I still love you. But..." Ryo did not continue his words.
"I know what you're thinking. With the sky you must think, sorry, that the Sky will add to your 'load' right?" I raise my hand by moving my finger to form a quotation mark on the word "load".
"Can't we...?" Once again Ryo hung up his sentence.
"Ga can, Ryo. We've gone different paths. You're with your family. And I'm with the sky. I'm with Pakne and Buneku. They're my parents now"
"You mean?" I don't know how anyone can be a parent to me.
"He was both filled with my story, and supported my decision to give birth to the Sky. They have not been given any children despite having been married for years" I explained.
Ryo was just a mangosteen hearing my explanation.
"What if I can accept the Sky?" he continued trying to stay, trying to try to get back in touch with me.
"Can? The only one who can sincerely accept the existence of Heaven is only me, because I am his mother. Mother who bet life gave birth to her"
"Maybe you can say that right now. But what if we are together, then one day we have a disagreement. Can you not bring up the past about the reason for the presence of Heaven?"
"I guess not. I don't want us to do something that we will eventually regret. Something that will surely hurt us. Or even hurt the sky. Something I won't tolerate"
Ryo just kept silent can't return my words.
"So from that I've been sincere about everything that happened. You also try hard. Maybe we are not a match" I continued with a relaxed smile.
Silent once again.
"How's your mother doing? Last info from Mr, your house contracted?
"Mom left for Taiwan to become TKW. I don't know about my mother myself. Because ever since I left, I lost contact with him. He promised to call me when he arrived in Taiwan. I certainly can't find my mother's whereabouts in Taiwan. I can only pray from here that he will be fine wherever he is" I explained at length.
"Your own family how are you?" askaku.
"They're good" Ryo answered briefly.
"Diminum. Snack too" I said.
Ryo sipped the tea bottle.
"Can I play once?" ask Ryo.
"Yes may. Why not? We can still be friends" I replied casually.
"Congratulations. I'm a mother now. I didn't expect. Though I always dreamed you would be the mother of my children in time" he said regretfully.
"Not yet a soul mate" I answered briefly.
"I'm saying goodbye then" said Ryo about to stand up.
"Drink is spent first. You don't like food waste the most" I said.
Ryo took the tea bottle and took a sip. Then stand up and pamper.
I drove Ryo away until he disappeared from sight. Before parting we said good luck and achieved everything we aspired to.
There was no crying. I've really been sincere. Even my feelings for Ryo seemed to have evaporated impassively.
Forgetting and forgiving are two different things. One can forget the bad deeds that others have done to him.
Now I just want to focus on nurturing and raising the Sky well. Focus on serving Pakne and Bune. And focus on reaching the goal. Which despite this time, the future still seems vague to me. I still don't know what's going to happen in the future.
All I can do now is fight. Ikhtiar the istiqamah. Do not forget to be accompanied by prayer. And then leave the results to God. There is a saying that no effort betrays results, right?
What future awaits Wulan? After all, what struggle must Wulan go through to reach her goal?
