RICH MAN

RICH MAN
IF THAT FEELING EXISTS


Eve was getting colder, the last night they were there. The clock showed at one in the morning. Rey had not been able to sleep and chose to go out and pick up the carpet and then sleep in front of the tent while covering her ears and trying to close her eyes there. He felt very disturbed because Fendi was sleeping too noisy because of the snoring sound.


Rey changed the position that was now sitting one meter from the campfire they made. The man was hugging his knees while waiting for the boiling water he was cooking to make a warm drink. The tents had started to quiet down, only a few people were still busy chatting with the makeshift lighting.


"Not slept?"


Rey turned her head as the girl sat next to her in thick clothes and sat right next to Reynand. A few days there, Rey has decided to stay away from the Stars. Instead, his heart continued to be filled with hope that made him unable to understand the circumstances and status of the two.


"Why out? We're last here tonight,"


"I can't sleep,"


Rey ber-oh ria's. He just sat down sweetly and kept his body warm in front of the campfire, the more shunned the closer. And the more he approached the girl's heart was never able to reach him.


"Rey, we're last here. Why don't you take a break until this hour?"


"I can't sleep" he replied coldly. He had been trying to stay away from the Stars for a few days despite his usual attitude. But he didn't want to show how much he would stay away from the girl. His heart was filled with hope.


"Rey," Star leaned his head against Reynand's right boat. The man kept silent and kept silent. He will not comment any more. It was enough for him to expect too much.


Rey fell silent and upon seeing the water boiling. "Star, I want to make a drink first," he tried to dodge and stood up to get the water. He brewed a drink and stayed close to the Stars again.


"You want to drink too?"


"No, Rey,"


"Star, sleep! Prepare your energy for tomorrow,"


"There's something I want to give you,"


Rey fell silent, the girl got up from her seat and headed straight into the tent. Every now and then Rey glances at her and when the girl returns, Rey focuses on her drink.


The girl sat next to him. "I wrote this during our acquaintance and to this day I wrote it, it may be too funny if you think I need your affection. But Rey, I thank you so much for thanking me every day. Thanks for the time,"


Rey let the girl's hand hang in the air along with the diary book. Rey stared at the Star for a moment, and the girl nodded her head to convince the man to take the proffered book.


"Why this book?"


"I want you to continue reading here, Rey. I want to know how you've been with me all this time. Don't you ever wonder how I feel about you all this time? And I wrote it all down here, Rey,"


"Take it. I don't need that, Star!" Rey is back. But the Star deftly rejected it.


At that moment Rey was holding a little diary book and the girl turned her back and leaned on Reynand's shoulder.


"You know why I've never been honest, Rey?"


"She, Rey. You exist, even you made me like this. Happy, worried, I just felt this painful first time because I miss you, we are always together. But why can't I ever get your heart?"


"It's not you who can't reach, but you who stay away as I try to convince myself that you are valuable to me. Now, I've given up the Stars. Whatever you want to do, I don't want any more maksa. Why do I mean you appreciate my feelings if you basically don't appreciate my feelings?"


The girl fell silent, Rey hugged her own knee. There was a sound coming from behind him. What happens to the stars until the girl is hard pressed to accept her love?


"Why you?"


"There are so many things I can't tell you,"


Rey still did not understand the girl behind him. He grabbed the girl's head and stroked her. How often Rey tries to hate her Star-loving heart. Still, if he saw the girl as weak, he could not bear it.


Rey stood up and left. Trying to be selfish and leave the Stars alone. Let the girl understand a little how it feels to endure pain.


"Rey,"


His steps came to a halt as the Star hugged him from behind. Rey closed her eyes and this time she had to really do that. Leaving the Stars alone.


Rey turned around, she hugged the crying Star in her arms.


"Sorry,"


Reynand let go of his embrace and left the Star there.


"Rey," The star pulled him.


"Sleep! We're home tomorrow,"


"Let's meet a week before we go to school in the back garden of the school!"


Rey takes the girl's hand and leaves the Star. "Sorry" Reynand closed his eyes. Feeling very sick when he saw such a weak Star. Indeed, he should have left the girl who had made his feelings chaotic. Even the first girl he hugged was the Star, the girl who had already crushed his hopes of a first love feeling that Reynand felt.


Rey pulled out a thick blanket while covering her head. Trying to sleep and calm down a little his feelings about the matter earlier.


Rey should have trusted her mother not to know love first and focus on her education. Rey should also not believe in a girl who has given him hope, but rather than back to what is happening now.


Ever loved, ultimately hurt. Ever felt so precious, but had to feel disappointed. Once so proud of love, but it must end in hurt.


Sometimes love makes a person more resilient to face the reality even more bitter, for example rejection, sometimes someone will be even better after his heart is broken by the person he once loved.


Love that comes can sometimes go. And the love that goes away, could come back. That is how the law of love applies to this world. No one can ever guess, sometimes so loved, incised wounds that continue to make the heart hurt many times like being stabbed with a dagger.
