Mala Dewa Love Story's
26: Three Years Later

Song~That's Okay by D.O

Mala's two hands were still holding the end of the dress she was wearing. In front of him at this moment was such a painful sight for Nirmala. It hurt, and never Mala imagined it would be plastered clearly in his eyes.

"Sister." Mala shaking.

Nurtured his eyes, there was a God who was hugging a girl. Lyra hugged the god from behind.

Unable to see it, Mala chose to turn around while wiping her tears.

Hixes. Mala didn't want to cry to see it. But this oath is painful. After six months he waited, wanting to make sure of everything. Mala wanted to meet the Gods, she hoped that Alyra's words that had just graduated from her university were a big mistake. It turns out everything turned around. She saw something she never thought of.

Mala stepped her legs even though she felt weak. His body was so weak that he almost fainted. But as much as Mala tried to straighten her body. Mala had to leave the place immediately, she chose to leave and return to Korea.

"Favor, Brother." Mala's cry broke out, she ran with all her might leaving the Gods.

"Deliver!" The god forcibly took off Lyra's tight embrace. "Surge!"

Lyra crying. "Wa. I still love you."

Gods grieving. "Don't be crazy! I don't feel the same way a little stuff! It's not there anymore, at all!" press it on the girl who's already hurting her girl's heart. Nirmala.

"Don't lie to Wa! You know exactly that's all a misunderstanding. I just want to explain it, you're wrong. You're guessing"

"Please stop!" cut God.

Lyra shakes. "I'm coming straight to Indo for you, Wa!"

"Free Alyra Pradipta! I don't feel the same way! I ninggalin lo not only because lo see you kissed the Brian! Wasn't it! I don't have the same feeling anymore. I want to get away from you. Do you realize that?"

Of course it hurt Alyra's feelings. So God did deliberately want to leave him? Want to break up with her?

"You lied. It must be Mala, right?"

The god smiled wryly. "One more thing, don't you ever touch my girlfriend. The girl I love, Nirmala. Do you think I don't know, huh? Lo who has been making my Mala diemin for six months. You sick huh?"

"No. I know what I'm doing!" Lyra yelling. "Gue doesn't like other girls! Touch lo!"

"Lo sick!"

The god walked away leaving Lyra who was crying sobbing behind him.

"God. I love you. I've never changed, I've loved you before." Alyra screaming. But that in no way changed the already cold, tasteless feeling of the God, towards Alyra.

"Our guy, I hate you. Forget that feeling because it's not useful at all." The god didn't turn around, he just stood in his place. "Never be present in my sight."

"God!" Alyra shouted louder calling out the name of the guy who had gone far away leaving her. "Please..."

The god squeezed his palm. Today he was supposed to meet Nirmala. In this place, basecamp both. But Alyra's presence made everything fall apart. The god ran around looking for the whereabouts of Mala who he said had just arrived. The god opened his phone. A minute before Lyra hugged her, Mala sent her a message that she had arrived.

Then now?

Thanks, Sis. Thanks for the beautiful view. All you need to know is that I came to see all the truth. I saw my own eyes on my own. Mala's just asking, don't bother Mala again. We're totally broke up. Thanks for everything, for all this time. Sorry, I couldn't meet my sister. Come home, brother. Adios. 

At that time I didn't know anymore. Mala had misjudged it. Mala must have seen the God who was being embraced by Lyra earlier.

"Mala?!" The gods screamed in frustration. "Oh my God!"

I don't know what he should do. The gods are patient enough with this situation. The endless misunderstanding.

"Do I have to give up?"

Three years later..

Bandung, April 23, 2021

Mala set foot in her native land.

Bandung. Cold place, the temperature now reaches 17 degrees Celsius. Mala is already wearing a thick Coat with her new appearance, as a graduate of the University of Seoul South Korea.

**

Her smile was beautifully circular. Nirmala Cheryl Lesmana decided to return to Indonesia. Both of his parents still have to settle in Korea, he himself returned to Bandung, the flower city that he missed so much.

This place, the place where he stands. Mala stared at the two houses that lined up. A well-kept, clean house, no garbage as far as the eye can see. Maybe because people paid by both parents always routinely clean uninhabited homes for the past three years.

Mala was stunned to look at the fence that changed color, once white now became bright blue. "Om Max changed the paint," he murmured.

That house is the house of God. Nirmala's ex-lover.

Mala is now 20 years old. His two eyes were watering, unexpectedly this time he dared to set foot on the ground. In front of her house was also the neighbor she loved dearly. Hate, because Mala can never hate Gods.

The man went to Korea. But Mala firmly told God to leave. Whatever God says as a form of denial not a single one he hears and believes.

Mala had completely parted ways with the Gods three years ago.

"How is he doing? Ah, she must be happy with her new boyfriend." Mala smiled a little. "Forget it, Mala."

His feet stepped, then he touched the fence of his house that felt cold. There was dew attached to the iron fence of his house. "It's raining" he murmured.

The pushing of the fence. He also entered his house.

That room, it's all the same. Nothing has changed. The only thing that changed was the atmosphere. A different atmosphere. In the past, the house felt filled with jokes, love, and behavior towards God. Of course when God visits his house, and it is very often. But, that was, different from now.

Don't be asked how Mala went through her miserable days in Korea. Mala is a spoiled girl, she is dependent on the God Adrian Nichole.

But all of those painful scenes. I don't know even if the gods say it's just a misunderstanding. Mala was as strong as her power to get used to without a God. Without the man who filled his heart until this very moment.

This second, he returned to Bandung for work, starting his career. Mala did not know if the God was still alone, or together with the girl who filled her heart after she left. Indeed, even though God swore before his eyes when in Korea three years ago, that he would not fill his heart with another girl other than Nirmala.

"You're nuts. Maybe he's still alone. She must be with another girl now."

And their story is just beginning, right here. In the hometown of Mala, Bandung.
