Missing In The Heart
Chapters 16.Meeting Friends.

Rachel and Bryan had just walked out the door of Theater 1, they were still giggling together after watching Stephen Chow's comedy at the mall's cinema.

From the cinema, the two of them proceeded to the Korean Restaurant. They ordered some special dishes from the country of ginseng such as Kimchi Sujebi, Japchae, a portion of bulgogi, kimbab and Patbingsoo which is a kind of Korean Shaved Ice as dessert.

"Would you spend it all?" Said Rachel, staring at the food presented in front of her.

"Look, I'm still growing." Bryan replied. "Feeding free." Then gobble up his food without saying much.

"You grow up how else, your height is like a pole!!" Rachel Eject. "Eat it slowly, will not run anyway."

Rachel shook her head to see how her sister was eating. Instantly she remembered Mahavir, her husband who was always greedy every meal. "Is a guy always eating like this...?? So the kangen want to see Mahavir again eat.....

Ahhh...!! Think what I am....!"

Rachel brushed off her daydream. Surprised by the desire of his heart, but a smile was present on his face.

After all the food menu at the table managed to move to their stomachs, they both got up from their seats to leave the restaurant. But no time to get out of place suddenly someone scolds Rachel.

"Rachel??" Sapa a beautiful woman who looks the same age as her. "Rachel Sasmita Wijaya??" ask again to clarify.

Rachel turned around, remembering the woman's face for a moment. "Sabila's Airya??" Guess Rachel.

"It turns out you remember me!" The woman immediately hugged Rachel's body tightly, "I miss knowing...!!" Continue with teary eyes.

Diraya Sabila, or more familiarly called Raya. Arab Peranakan beautiful woman with shoulder-length hair is one of Rachel's friends since sitting on the bench Junior High School to High School. His closest friend who has an open nature and sometimes flippant when talking.

"Yes, I'm also a heavy Kangen with you Kingdom." Rachel patted Raya's back.

"When did you come from London?"

"It was a week ago."

"Have Meal?" tanya Raya when she let go of her embrace.

"Even, you?"

"Barusan has also. I've been watching you, just afraid of wrong people."

"You forgot my face."

"We've not seen you for 10 years, you're more beautiful." Puji Raya's

"You're also more beautiful.., we're looking for a place to chat!" Take Rachel and then pull Raya towards a cafe.

"This is how a girl has met her friend.The others have been forgotten!!"

Bryan's grunt followed from behind.

"Dec, you're the one who ordered a drink!!" Pinta Rachel to Bryan.Bryan nodded and immediately joined the queue. While Rachel and Raya took a sitting position in an empty place.

"That's your sister? That funny Bryan?" Tanya Raya with a look of shock as well as amazement.

Rachel nodded "Iyya, it's Bryan."

"Crazy, is it big? Saucy again. I didn't notice it. The last time I saw him was in 3rd grade, right?" Raya was still staring at Bryan with a sparkle.

"Yeah, he's fast his height. Its body alone looks big, but it's still a boy." Rachel half-chuckled.

"Oh iyya, how have you been all this time? I follow your account. I saw a hot rumor about you with a guy. I was shocked at first, but I was sure the rumors were hoaxes. Good thing your husband quickly clarified."

"Hehe.. Iyeah." Rachel replied embarrassedly. "You follow me but why don't you say hello on my account?"

"I'm afraid and ashamed, and you've forgotten me. You are a great man now." Reply Raya smiled.

"You are yes.....There's no way I've forgotten about you...!!"

"Rachel, your husband besides being a great person is also handsome, so I'm curious to see the real thing." Great Temptation.

"Oh, yes this Saturday my wedding reception will be held. You come well, call the other friends."

"The sipp!!" Raya raised her thumb. "Dwuh... So curious about the man who was able to tame a Rachel."

"Hussein... What a wild animal am I!"

Rachel and Raya laughed again.

"This is the sister drink." Bryan came with 3 cups of Caramel Macchiato, two cups placed on the table and the other directly on the sruput, then sat next to Rachel and played her phone.

"Thank you Bryan..." Raya Saying. Bryan just smiled.

"You just sit there!" Rachel shoved Bryan's shoulder, and pointed to the next table. Hoping for Bryan to move places so that the two of them would be comfortable chatting with each other, but Bryan did not flinch.

"Just let him sit there, so that it will be my moodbooster"

Rachel glanced at Bryan who had been engrossed in playing online games, then half-whispered to Raya. "She loves eavesdropping and being my husband's spy."

"Owww.pp...." Raya nodded then pursed her lips. But back to laughing.

"Are you married yet?"

"Haha... I'm still a true singles" Raya said with a laugh.

"Seriously???" Rachel couldn't believe it.

"Yes, seriously!! I think I'm the same as your sister, can you?" Raya then glanced towards Bryan. "Bryan wants to be sister's boyfriend?"

Bryan smiled shyly, but continued to play the game.

"Oh Bryan, why are you so late!!"

"Haush....There-there's only you Ra! So what's your busy life now?"

"I followed in my mother's footsteps, so dentist."

"Great dong." Praise Rachel

"mmm... Rachel...."

"Well...?"

"Sorry...."

"It is precisely I who apologize to you Rachel, for not being able to be next to you when you were in trouble, I feel like a bad friend."

"It's okay." Rachel smiled faintly.

Bryan heard the direction of Raya's conversation that had begun to offend the incident that could make his brother re-shaken. Bryan silently stared at the cold Kingdom, as if giving a code so as not to discuss it more deeply.

"But....." Raya's speech was stifled, she glanced towards Bryan who was looking at her coldly, then continued her question. "Do you know what happened?"

"You mean Ra?"

"I heard friends talking about Dirman trying to harass you. That's not right, is it?" The voice half whispered.

"It's Ra, I don't want to talk about it." Rachel's face began to change.

Bryan's gaze grew more intimidating, but Raya was undaunted.

"Sorry Rachel, only until now I couldn't believe that Dirman could do something like that. What if we misunderstand, what if it turns out that he was framed by someone, or maybe he was the one who saved you. It would be unfair for Dirman to judge him unilaterally like this."

Rachel paused for a moment then took a deep breath and threw it away violently.

"Ra, from the time I hated and disliked him, from the time I was cold to him, do you remember that incident in the middle of the field? I asked that she be expelled from school, maybe that's why she'd want to repay me for all my treatment of her. He was the one I saw at the time, not anyone else! After that, he disappeared into the earth. If he's not the culprit why should he run away?" Rachel's emotions began to be unstoppable, her entire body seemed to tremble.

Raya looks panicked, especially when Bryan stares at her sharply. The woman then got up from her seat, stood up and grabbed Rachel's shoulders, trying to calm her down. "Ok, OK, stop, don't angry okay?? let's talk about something else."

Bryan was silent, listening to the two women's conversation. He knows the truth. I want him to speak the truth, but fear will create a bigger misunderstanding.

After seeing Rachel begin to calm down Kingdom pulled out her phone and opened her social media account, trying to shift Rachel's mood. "Oh, iyya Rachel, you still remember Sezha and Reta right?"

"Of course, where are they now?"

"Sheza is married and has a baby. She joined her husband in Singapore. Look at the baby girl, it's funny, right?" Raya showed photos of Sheza and her son enthusiastically.

"Kangen is the same Sheza." Rachel looked at her best friend's photo. "If Reta?"

"If Reta is now continuing her mama's diamond business, a month ago she's also been engaged to the office's son."

"Oh yeah?"

"But Reta is now a bit of a man."

"meaning?"

"She hangs out with socialites, so I'm not very familiar with her. If you meet you can judge for yourself."

"Well is Reta like that?"

"Yeah!! Uh we're photos. I want to put it on my status, let's show it off to Sheza." Rachel and Raya then took some selfies at the cafe.

At 21:30, After exchanging mobile numbers, Rachel finally ended her encounter with Raya.

The white Porsche that Rachel was driving in has now come out of the mall area, speeding through the crowded road will be vehicles passing by at night.

Bryan was unceasingly watching his driving brother. Rachel's gaze looked focused forward but it was clear that something was thinking about her.

"Sister, stop in front for a second." Bryan Pinta.

"You what?"

"Stop it first." Bryan's orders.

Rachel pulled over and stopped on the shoulder. Bryan got down and circled the car, then opened the door at the wheel.

"I'm the one driving the brother."

"Loh, didn't you say it wasn't allowed with daddy?"

"I'd have more to say if I let my brother drive while daydreaming so."

With Rachel lazily down and they exchange. The car drove back with Bryan who was the driver.

"sister"

"Hmm?"

"Aren't you thinking about the words of that brother's friend?"

"Which one?"

"What about Dirman?"

"Don't talk about it."

"Sister, you better find out, maybe it's true that it turns out he was the one who saved your brother that time." Persuade Bryan.

"Know what you are."

"Actually what makes sister so hate her?

"You won't understand."

"I asked my brother."

"I'm tired, don't talk about it anymore!!" Rachel then closed her eyes.

"If this continues until when??

If you never want to find out the truth, then Mahavir will never have a chance." Inner Bryan.
