Hadwan
Chapter 28: Heartache

..."Loving you is like an illusion. Revealing it became a taboo, while harboring it deepened. But in fact, heartache is more fragile than love."...

...~~~...

Iklima stared at Hadwan's departure just like that, by giving an imperceptible wound. However, it is very slashing in the heart. The love that should bloom, now only become fantasy and delusion.

Hoping to be together and guide each other, but in fact not as expected. Not because they don't like each other, or oppose destiny. But that's the best for both. Step away from each other to improve, spaced out to eliminate the sense that is inappropriate to grow at this time.

Rest assured, the love of two people who take care of each other and move away to improve, will be more beautiful than loving at the wrong time, in the wrong way.

"Even if you reject me for now, papa's not. I'm sure you want the best. Not papa away to keep, until we meet again later," muttered Iklima braced himself, while wiping his tears that had soaked his beautiful face.

Not wanting anyone to see him cry, Iklima immediately rushed away from the place and intended to go straight home. However, by the time he turned his body around, his two best friends were already standing behind him.

Either since when they were there, but certainly there is a high possibility that the two friends saw him crying earlier, or maybe up to the time faced with Hadwan.

"Ne, Wardah. You two are here? Since when?" ask Iklima while approaching his two friends who are now back together and not away from each other again.

Naina and Wardah just look at each other, then look at Iklima with an unusual gaze. It looks very different, causing suspicion and anxiety for Iklima.

"No need to know when the two of us have been standing here since, but what is certain now is that you why not say everything from the past? Why not tell the same story? Where was the old Iklima?" said Wardah who now seems very disappointed, or maybe not expect.

"Yes, why are you hiding it from us? The three of us are friends, if there is anything, you should be the story," continued Naina also confirmed the words from Wardah.

Iklima's suspicions were true, his two best friends had seen it all and now they both knew that he had always liked Hadwan, a man who was known to be cold and rarely spoke.

"Yes, sorry. I have not dared to tell you, because this is also not very important. So, no need to be told. No papa," answered Iklima with a smile, trying to look strong, even though it is actually very fragile.

"What about papa? You are our best friend, you should have told me. You are not sad and fragile alone. Not keeping it alone if you tell the story, we will both always be there for Iklima," said Naina by hugging the body of Iklima who now shed tears.

"Thank you, you two are my best friends" said Iklima, smiling as there are still people who want to support him, accompanying him to be able to rise from the pain.

"We will always be there for you, Iklima, you don't worry if we leave you because it will not be possible" Wardah said with a smile.

After a few minutes, the three of them occupied enough seats for the three. At that place, Iklima told Naina and Wardah everything. From the beginning he liked Hadwan until he was rejected and abandoned by the man. However, it does not rule out the possibility that Hadwan shunned him for good and not in the least he talked bad things about Hadwan to his two friends.

"Yes, Wardah. Hadwan didn't ask me to wait for him, but he told me to be better. Reaching my goals, until I can be at an extraordinary point," replied Iklima while looking down, enduring the pain that still often struck his heart.

"The powerful Iklima. I'm sure you can, the Iklima we know is amazing" Naina said with a big smile.

"Yes, thank you. You two are always there for me" said Iklima who now starts smiling again.

One Month Later

Soekarno Hatta Airport

Now Hadwan was ready with neat clothes with a suitcase beside him, the man looked very handsome. She smiled looking at her sister's face, Anisa.

"Sister, Hadwan said yes. Doain Hadwan so that he can arrive safely and go home with pride," Hadwan told Anisa, his only sister because she only lived together.

Anisa smiled and rubbed her sister's arm, then replied, "Yes, amiin. Surely Brother will always doain Adek until Adek return to Indonesia."

"Thank you too Brother, Brother already wanted permission Hadwan to go to study in America, whereas Brother here will be alone," said Hadwan sadly.

"No papa, Dek. Just pursue your ideals, God willing Brother is fine here, Adek do not have to worry. Remember the word man jadda wajada," said Anisa while smiling looking at her sister's face.

Hadwan smiled and hugged Anisa's body, at first glance they look like lovers, loving each other even though they are both brother and sister who are not too far old, so it looks like a couple.

"Sister, I'm going first. Assalamu'alaikum" Hadwan said before leaving his brother.

"Wa'alaikumsalam, be careful on the road, Deck." Anisa waved to Hadwan and the man replied with a smile.

After that, Hadwan also entered the plane because it would soon fly to America, while Anisa only mourned the departure of her sister with a heavy feeling.

However, it was also for the good of his sister, so he also adkhas to allow the decision of his sister who wants to continue his studies to universities in America. Incidentally, Hadwan got a full scholarship at the Galactic SMAN School to continue to America, so he did not spend a penny.
