Next day. Early in the morning Diva came to Rania's house, last night she had contacted Rania to come there because there were things to talk about and tell. Diva really needs a friend, and she thinks that Rania is the right friend to tell her stories.
Now they are in the garden behind Rania's house, only the two of them. Because Diva asks Rania's husband not to join her talk, the reason is a woman's problem that should not be known by a man, even if it is Rania's own husband. Raniaun agreed, he felt there was something important, so Diva asked like that was not as usual.
"So, what do you want to talk to me about, Va?" Rania asked to start the conversation.
Diva fell silent, she was confused as to where to tell all this from.
"They? You're okay, right?" Rania patted her friend's shoulder slowly, to wake her up from the daydream.
"I-iya, I-I'm fine, Rania," replied the nervous Diva, she squeezed her fingers which started to sweat coldly.
"What's up, Va? Is there a problem with Reyhan? Last time I saw your relationship wasn't good enough, come on tell me!" Rania tries to persuade Diva, hopefully Diva is devastated and wants a story.
Tears began to pool in Diva's eye patch, but she tried to keep her tears from falling on her cheek.
"Rania, circumstances forced me to accept the reality, if it turns out that Reyhan will never be able to be with me, hiks.." as powerful as Diva to hold back her tears, she said, but in the end his sobs even preceded it out of his control.
"You mean?" Rania looked at her confused friend, she did not understand what Diva really meant.
"Hiks.. Turns out Reyhan belongs to my sister, Rania. Hicks. hyx.." Rania rested the Diva on her shoulder, trying to digest the Diva's speech just now.
"Wait a minute! Didn't you ever say that your brother was in prison, because your brother was accused of killing someone?" Rania is getting confused.
Diva wiped away the tears that kept rolling on both of her cheeks. He took a deep breath to control himself. "Yes, Rania. It's a long story, and I can't tell you this in detail."
"But if you don't tell me, I don't understand at all, Va. I also don't understand why your relationship with Reyhan stretched, even though your relationship has improved, right?" Rania held both arms over her friend, and stared at her two eyeballs in turn.
"So, Rania. My brother's in prison for murder, and you know who they think my brother killed?"
"Who?" ask Rania curious.
"He is Alertana, the husband of Iren and Reyhan's biological father," explained Diva, making Rania instantly silenced and stunned. He could hardly believe what he had just heard.
"Then?" Rania is getting impatient to listen to the next Diva story.
"So that's why Reyhan used to not like me that much. Because my face looks a lot like my brother's, who they think killed his family. And after Reyhan found out the truth, Reyhan started getting to know me more closely. That was my brother's request. And when I found out the truth, I asked her and her family to release my sister, "The Diva wiped away her tears that didn't go well, and it felt like her chest was feeling a tightness.
"Then what makes your relationship and Reyhan stretch, Va?" Rania is getting impatient waiting for Diva to continue her story again.
"At that very moment, I asked my brother to take my place as I was close to Reyhan. Because I think everything is free. Free Reyhan is close to me if that's all my brother's request, isn't that a compulsion?"
"At the same time, Reyhan's mother thought the same, if she wanted Reyhan to be close to my sister, to replace her father who had taken away all my brother's happiness. At that moment, I felt like my heart was very broken, Rania. My heart is as in verse and pierced by the sword, which inflicts a gaping wound. Hiks. hiks.." the girl continued. By touching as much as possible in front of Rania, making Rania feel sorry for the fate of her close friend. But Rania could not give a solution what is approximately right for Diva. Feeling problems, which ended up like this it felt like Rania could not interfere.
"Rania. I also understood what Reyhan's mother meant, who also agreed with my mother. If Reyhan takes over his papa's responsibilities, at least it gives my brother justice. Because if it wasn't Reyhan, maybe my brother would have a hard time finding another man out there, with his ex-convict status on murder charges, it would also make it harder for my brother to find a job. Rania, is what I'm doing right? Giving up Reyhan for my sister despite being so painful," Diva cried again, even her tears could not prevent her from continuing to flow on both cheeks.
"I don't know if it's that problem, Va. But whatever you think is good, and that is your decision, you must be sincere. You just follow what your heart says!" rania said, she stroked her friend's hair after she managed to lean it back on her shoulder.
"I can only pray, if you're going to get a much better soul mate than Reyhan, huh? Don't cry anymore!" Rania helps wipe the tears on Diva's cheeks using both of her thumbs.
"Yes, Rania. I'm trying to, I'm trying to learn sincerely and willingly, because this has become my own decision."
"Then don't cry anymore, yeah! Where's the Diva I know? Where is the always cheerful Diva? Smile, dong!" Rania tried to comfort her friend who was in grief. And luckily it works, Diva smiles even a little.
Diva grabbed Ranai's hand, she looked at her friend. "Thank you very much, Rania. You are always there for me, happy and sad. I'm lucky to have a friend like you, now I'm relieved, because I've been telling you the pain I've been in all this time alone."
Diva nodded, she really felt a little relieved. Because it is not good to also bear the pain alone, we better tell the closest people we can trust. At least it will reduce the burden that holds in our hearts.
"Oh, yeah, you're not going to the shophouse?" Rania asked after seeing the sun getting higher, and the day began to day.
"Em. actually coming here is not just a story, Rania. I came here too because I wanted to tell you, thank you so much for giving me the confidence to work in your shop until now. At the same time want to apologize, because I can't continue spoiling in your shophouse. I'm resigning" Diva explained her main purpose in meeting Rania.
"Well, why, Va? Are you so great that you work at my shophouse, and the salary I give you doesn't match what you've been working on?" Rania is a little surprised by Diva's resignation from her ruko.
Diva shook her head hard. "Not that, Rania. The reason for that was because I had to stay away from Reyhan, because if I still met him every day, it seemed like it would make my efforts to forget him even harder. You know what I mean, Rania?"
"Yes, Va. I get it, but you really want to stop working at the shophouse?" Rania reassured once again, fearing that the Diva would change her mind.
"Yes, Rania. I'm serious, I'd like to resign from your shophouse. Sorry, yeah!" diva asserts.
"Yes, Va. Its alright. Hope you got a much better job, yeah!"
"Yes, Rania. Aamiins. Then I'll say yes, yes!"
"Yes, Va. Be careful!" Rania stood up from her seat, and now they were walking to go to the courtyard of Rania's house.
"Rania, I'm home, yeah!" pamit Diva once again, when they were already in front of the gate of the house.
Rania nodded. "Yes, careful!"
Diva gave a smile to Rania, as well as Rania who immediately replied to her. When the Diva had just stepped foot away from there, Rania suddenly shouted to stop the Diva's steps.
"Va.." Rania's shout made Diva turn to her. "You remember my brother, don't you? His name is Radit, he used to say he likes you."
Diva fell silent, she remembered the name and face of the man Rania had just mentioned. After he remembered the face, he smiled.
"I'm going first, Rania. See you later," Diva waved her hand, with a smile still clearly drawn on her lips.
"Hah, may the dream of bang Radit be realized, if he can see the beautiful face of Diva freely someday. Not just looking from behind the door of her room, every Diva stopped by the house first," Rania smiled if she remembered that, it was funny that Diva became her sister-in-law.
"What's wrong with bang Radit, why did you mention his name?" the question of a man who suddenly appeared from behind Rania made her a little surprised, but it was fortunate that the man who became her husband did not hear her words just now.
"Kepo, just want to know. Hehe.." Rania stuck her tongue out at Bagas, then left to leave him to go back inside the house.
While Bagas was still pecking there, scratching his non-itchy nape with curiosity that made him drown in daydreams.
