The two teenagers were sitting in a cafe in downtown Jakarta. Since the meeting earlier and since Rey picked up Bintang, even at the cafe the two are still busy with their respective minds. The girl seemed to throw a glance elsewhere. Even so with Rey who does not know what to look for topics of conversation, she ordered drinks and some food.
They did go together, but what good would it be if they kept quiet and did not say hello at all.
Outside the window of the cafe, it was raining heavily. That afternoon there were many people who tried to find shelter, some were willing to be flushed by the rain without looking for shelter. However, there were several motorized vehicles wearing raincoats and still through the heavy rain that afternoon.
"What are we really?" Rey opens the conversation, confused by what happened to her as well as the Stars.
In the past, before meeting the Stars, his life never felt any anxiety. He lived life very well, especially with the presence of his two younger siblings and also spent more time with the girl now. Until now, Rey still has not introduced the Star to her parents, she just wants to make good friends. Still do not want to establish a relationship that can make the two become more tenuous later.
There was no response from the Stars, Rey snorted and clucked in annoyance. "Star?"
The girl glanced at him, "Eh huh? What did you say? Sorry, I looked at them again, "It turned out that the girl did not respond at all, Reynand took a deep breath and immediately grabbed the straw and sipped her drink. He almost wanted to ask about their relationship status.
"Why did you just shut up?"
"I see those who are willing to rain, Rey. Let's see, there's a guy pushing his wagon in the rain, it's an ice dealer anyway, like," The star pointed to one of the wet middle-aged men pushing his wagon on the edge of the cafe where they were hanging out.
"So, what do you want?"
The girl stood up, "We are at least offered food or warm drinks to warm her, we are not in this expensive place does not mean we should not care about people, but yes we offer anything that might be useful to him,"
Rey nodded slowly and stood up then followed where the Stars were going, she let her drink be there and ordered some warm drinks and some food for the middle-aged man. And a little while later, a little boy who might be seven years old ran up to a man, "Son, sorry you're staying because you have to rush goodbye, Mr,"
The little boy seemed to be wiping his face while cleaning the remaining water on his face, the boy was carrying his sales as well.
"Come, comein!" bring Stars.
"Not to, Non,"
"Father, we're drinking coffee or something" the stars bargained. But still, the man refused.
"Sir, I'm hungry,"
Rey turned to the little boy and remembered that there was no filling food inside, next to him was a restaurant that was quite famous.
"Bring next door, I'll follow, Star!" Rey's orders. He went back in and immediately paid for the drink they had been drinking and also the drink he had canceled. Rey rushed to leave the place and then moved to the restaurant next to the cafe.
Rey stepped towards the Star and the two people, she sat there while the Star permitted to order them food. "What's the little sister's name?"
"Join, sis,"
"Wear this yes, sir, Rendi, you must be cold!"
Rey hands over her jacket and drives the two men to the bathroom to change her clothes, for the subordinates, Rey has no pants in her car. He only carried the jacket he always carried.
"Mom, is there a drying machine?" he told one of the employees.
"There, Mas. Next to the girls' toilet, in the hallway!" Rey turned her head for a moment and found a washing machine there.
"Sir, can you borrow the clothes for a moment? I dry it first," Rey's permission. But the man hesitated, Rey reassured and until in the end the middle-aged man immediately handed over his pants, clothes and hid behind the door. Same with Rendi.
Rey immediately permits briefly to dry her clothes and also her second pants which really makes Reynand pity. He imagined what if his sister was in that position, Star was right that there was no reason not to care about the other person.
Three minutes passed, Rey immediately brought the clothes she had dried to the two men. "Thank you, son," Rey simply replied with a smile and invited the two to the dinner table again.
There are already stars with food that has been served so much on the table. Looking at the Star that greeted the two of them with her trademark smile, Rey returned with a smile and sat down opposite the two.
"So you don't have money to pay,"
Rey smiled and stroked the man's shoulder.
"Let me pay, Mr. Rendi eat quietly,"
"But it must be expensive, you get money from your parents, right? How are your parents?"
"Sir, don't worry. Doesn't sharing include kindness? And there's no harm in dividing the food, right? I'd like to share some food with you and Rendi this time, so you're eating as much, Papa I won't be angry just because of this,"
The two men seemed to be eating very well. Rey is so happy to share it like this. A few minutes later after the rain had subsided, the two men decided to continue selling. Rey also gave a little of her sustenance to the middle-aged man.
Earlier, the man refused, but Rey still gave the man some money to increase capital. Rey only smiled after the man received the money he gave her.
The star then tells his story of wanting to see his parents whole again, hearing the man's story about his wife, Bintang had to cry and Rey saw it with a look of pity. About divorce, however, he had felt how bitter the divorce of parents.
"Star, if one day you want to find your Mama, I'm ready to help you,"
The stars looked at him fixedly, "You're serious, right?"
"Yes, I'm serious. We'll find them together."
Rey just wants the Stars to be happy, she cares about the Stars. But sometimes when a person starts to care about others, it will only add to the burden on his life. But if it's for the good of others, Rey will try to help. No matter how often people patronize him and scoff at his efforts in helping the Stars. He won't care, he'll protect the Stars. Will stay together on the girl's side.
