Terror Waiting Factory
Reyna sulandari

Mr. Ardi was talking to someone over the phone, Febry who was sitting in front of him was acting strangely. The girl covered her face with both hands. As if I was scared of something. Without saying goodbye to his interlocutor, Mr. Ardi immediately turned off the phone.

"Feb, what's wrong with you?"

"Sir, I saw something there. It's on a tree near the car." Febry pointed to the direction he meant by the face he still covered.

Mr. Ardi turned his head, following the direction pointed. But the man saw nothing strange.

"It's quiet.relaxed, g nothing."

Febry opened the fingers that covered his face slowly. He looked towards the figure, but it was true. There's nothing. He took a deep breath while feeling his heart thumping.

"I saw a figure of white, he was rich pointing at me."

"If you see something, immediately bring prayer. Wess calm o, this is your drink." Mr. Ardi offered me a glass of avocado juice. He looked at the pity of Febry who seemed to still be frightened.

Want to hug the girl, hold her warm so she feels safe. But, he realized. If he's nobody. Maybe for Febry, their relationship is only limited to superiors and men. However, in fact there was a warming feeling inside here when they were together.

At the age of Mr. Ardi who has even thirty-three years, he wants to feel like building a holy relationship called marriage. However, the girl he liked was still twenty-three years old. He was afraid, afraid if his feelings were just clapping one hand. And he realized that at the age of Febry at this time, he was still very young and still wanted to achieve many things.

Moreover, far from the figure of Mr. Ardi who looks strong, real he is not as strong as seen on the outside. Even he is still battered in healing wounds that never heal. Yes, the wounds he cried in silence, even though it was almost ten years.

*****

--- A few years ago-----

The aroma of cooking spices filled the room. Looks like some people in the yard, busy helping each other to put up a tent.

A great feast in a few days will take place, a feast that will be filled with happiness and unite two families. Everyone who comes as if they will be hypnotized to feel a happy atmosphere, to chant good prayers for both partners.

However, the happiness did not reach Reyna's heart. The girl was stunned standing at the door with a million questions that so squeezed her heart. He doubted if this was what he wanted.

Those questions seemed to continue to slip into his chest. It made her unable to hold back the crying. The sobs slowly turned hysterical. Reyna no longer cared about her surroundings. He shouted, he sobbed, trying to vent his heart.

A couple who sat not far from his standing, then reflex approached. Not wanting it to be a spectacle of people around, the couple pulled Reyna's hand towards the room.

Reyna's body was pushed into the room. He fell on the floor with tears in his eyes.

"What the hell are you reyna?" The father stared intently at him. Like a tiger ready to pounce on its prey.

"I'm sorry Reyna, dad. Reyna can't continue this marriage."

"What do you mean?" This time my father raised his bicaranga tone, apparently if he was really angry.

"Crazy you reyna. What do you expect from Bayu? He's just a baker at the market. Compared to Arya, it is very different. Your life will be more secure if you marry Arya. He's the sole heir to his father's and mother's business. You don't have to bother being a honorary teacher anymore."

"Dad, why do you always compare them? The one who will live life later, it's Reyna. Not dad. Reyna g love with mas arya"

"Enough Reyna. Slowly later you will definitely love Arya. I don't want to know, it's all been so far. So don't make trouble."

"Already..ndukk. Nurut o father same mother. Don't yell anymore, fill in nduk isinnn." The mother who was also sobbing beside Reyna, tried to calm down.

"Mom, you're bad. Without Reyna's consent you betrothed Reyna to Arya. Just because you're friends with Arya's parents doesn't mean you have the right to decide Reyna's soul mate."

Reyna kept sobbing. Actually what Reyna said as if slapping the feelings of her parents. There is a bit of guilt that arises, but that feeling is closed with the belief that if their daughter is married to Arya, then she will definitely be happy and have a better future.

Reyna's parents were friends during Arya's parents' High School.

Aryan parents have a lot of business in their town. Starting from boutique businesses, restaurants to garment factories.

Since graduating from school they have never met, until finally fate seemed to reunite.

There was a warming feeling, when Arya first met reyna. A simple girl with long hair unraveled and a smile so sweet.

"Reyna Wulandari." the girl introduced herself, extending her hand.

"Arya permana," said Arya, with a heart pounding violently.

The girl then passes, and returns with a tray of drinks for Arya and her parents. He stared at Reyna who was sitting across from him. Then smiled in embarrassment as the two eyes met each other.

Arya never refused if invited to visit Reyna's house, she tried hard to hide the thump in her heart. Trying hard so that the feeling of like he had is not so visible.

"Now busy what?" after repeatedly stringing sentences in the heart, Arya was finally able to start the conversation first. Both of their parents were busy talking inside, while they chose to chat on the porch seats of the house.

"I taught, mas. ngajar at the school SD near here."

"Say people, the SD teacher was average patient. So you're one of them?"

"oh yeah? I hope yes. If it's bad it'll be somebody's son crying."

For Arya, Reyna has a personality that is so kind and polite.he even feels at home if lingering chatting with Reyna.want it feels like he asked if Reyna already has a lover or not, but he kept it, because he was conscious. What kind of man dares to ask personal questions at their second meeting.

Until finally, when he knew he would be married. Not one bit he refused. For Arya, luck is currently on her side. Even that luck will be more complete when you find out if he and Reyna will soon be tied up in marriage.
