A holiday that should be happy is just the opposite. I don't know, what God's planning is, finding them in one boat.
Angel, still silent in front of the guardrail while staring at the waves big enough to follow him. No matter the sea breeze that was very strong hit her beautiful hair.
Angel was completely confused by Gio's attitude.
"Did Gio like Rara," he thought after seeing Gio's treatment of Rara. "It is impossible that they have the same disease. Oh God why so this way, why don't I just get sick so Gio will pay attention to me. Why must it be that girl."
Angel is upset, as Rara becomes a hindrance to him.
...****************...
Gio was about to go to his room but he met Revan. The two of them just looked at each other in silence. It was not strange if they were like that, Gio and Revan had never talked much but the relationship this time was not as good as it used to be.
"Gio," call Revan to stop Gio.
"I want you to save Rara" Revan said.
Gio looked at his friend. Could it be that Revan already knew Rara's true illness. They went out drinking together, it seemed like this would be the beginning of their closeness again.
"Honestly, I was surprised to hear that. I admitted to liking her but I didn't know Rara was having this much trouble. Rara is a cheerful girl, she always laughs under any circumstances. It was hard to guess if he had a problem. I often ask about her pale face but Rara always says she's fine. He never said tired or sick."
Revan said with regret.
"I don't deserve him" Revan said.
Gio looked at his best friend who was down. For the first time Gio raised his hand to gently stroke Revan's shoulder.
"If you say you don't deserve it then what about me? Even I couldn't save Tiara. I can't do anything when Tiara is in pain. I can only cry like a cowardly man" Gio said.
Gio lowered his head to block the tears dripping down his cheeks. A man doesn't deserve to cry, right? However, considering Tiara always made her cry.
"Why are you crying? You crybaby. We used to be famous for good looks, gangster-like strength. All women adore us, we are never weak let alone crying. Come on, Gio, you don't embarrass your friend" said Revan, making Gio laugh.
"Friends? Someone finally called me a friend. It's been a while since graduation ended."
The shadow of the school days came back to their minds. Gio, smiled as he recalled his meeting with Tiara. The first girl who dared to oppose him. And the first girl to melt his heart.
"Why your lips? Do you remember it again?" revan asked with a smile.
"How's Nico doing?" ask Gio.
"Nico yes. Guess what he is now?" Revan turned the question around.
"So what? A writer? Isn't he good at making poems or musicians."
"Wrong," replied Revan. "Nico, my personal assistant now."
"What!" Gio was so shocked, a split second his smile expanded. "I thought Nico was a writer or what turned out .. You just invited Nico to work with you." Look at Gio on Revan.
"It's not my fault. You're the one who left us, but .. sometime we should meet. Nico must be happy to see you."
"Mm .. yes," replied Gio.
"On Rara," said Revan restrained. I don't know what he's gonna say.
"Look down, I don't like it. I just wanted to help her recover from her illness that was my promise after I became a doctor. If you like him promise me to take care of him, don't let a drop of linang run from the corner of his eye."
Since Gio did not want to, seeing Tiara's eyes continued to cry.
"Yes, I promise. You must also promise to heal him."
"I'm working on it" replied Gio. They both hugged each other.
...****************...
Angel, still upset that his plan failed. Intention to make out with Gio, even alone without friends on the ship. The luxurious dishes in front of him did not tantalize his appetite. Angel even lazy to fill the stomach even though the worms in his stomach have called for filling.
"Why just in sight? Isn't this a delicious meal, eat while warm," said Gio who suddenly appeared and sat in front of him.
"Gio!" Angel was so surprised and happy.
"Eat, I don't want to ruin our day off" said Gio, who poured the drink into Angel's glass.
Angel was smiling. It was strange, Gio's attitude was never as gentle and sweet as that of Angel. Has Gio accepted it? I don't know, only Gio knows and Angel doesn't care that the important dinner is going well.
