The next event is a dining event, all of them taking their respective places and chatting. Puspa has since asked me to ask the housekeeper to keep the gift they all gave me in the room.
Then after lunch, Puspa invited me to chat alone by the pool.
"Have you kept the card?" ask Puspa to me.
I nodded my head several times at the sign that what he had said since then I had done. And after hearing my answer I saw Puspa sighing in relief.
"Fuih, you're not the area of the gift given by Rikas earlier that's actually the same as the one I gave you!" puspa.
I immediately scrunched my forehead but a few seconds later after looking at each other together with Puspa we laughed together.
"Ha ha ha, that's right. I don't know what Sam looks like if he sees the contents of the gift given by Rikas!" say me while curled up.
"Ha ha, I was originally thinking of pranking the stiff man, but when I saw Samuel's sudden reaction to him then took the gift by force. I don't have any heart for him!" puspa.
"Why do you want to prank Rijai?" ask me.
Actually I feel there is a feeling that is not happy to listen to what Puspa said just now if he actually wants to prank Rija. I feel very unhappy even though Puspa is also my best friend.
Puspa did not immediately answer my question and took my hand and invited me to sit in a chair by the pool.
"You know, he's so stiff!" he said with a face that I can seem to mean if he seems to be disappointed by Rikas.
I actually did not dispute what Puspa said what was said was true. If Riksa was a very stiff man, but even so he was very good.
So I only nodded once a sign that I agreed with what Puspa said.
"You're right, but...!"
I had not even finished saying the sentence I wanted to say, Puspa immediately turned around and positioned himself opposite me, then held the hand that was on top of my lap.
"really right? you agree with me, right?" her question interrupts the sentence I really want to say and I don't mean that.
Not even I can take care of what I want to say, I see Puspa again sighing heavily.
"Huh, you know not Naira. He just rejected me the ninth time!" puspa lirih.
Of course, as soon as the statement from Puspa just made my eyes widen and my mouth gaped so surprised.
"A.. What do you mean?" ask me confused.
If that was in my mind yes, what Puspa said just now was like he had expressed his love for Riksa and was rejected for the ninth time. The ninth time? a beautiful person like Puspa who is very independent and rich, who can make all men bend their knees before him was rejected 9 times by Riksa. I shook my head a few times over what Puspa said just now made me really amazed and in disbelief.
"As you may have guessed, I expressed my feelings for her. And he rejected me!" said Puspa who impressed mediocre.
But I know that this great woman in front of me is not in a good state. His lips were indeed smiling his face was flat and he said all of that as if very casually. But her teary eyes convinced me that she was really sad and disappointed at Riksa's rejection.
But no less makes me wonder is why Riksa refused Puspa.
I patted Puspa's shoulder gently and rubbed it a few times.
"Stone nine times right? I'll take it next time!" I said in a voice that was no less soft than the touch of my hand.
I said that so that Puspa was not too sad, I wanted to give her spirit. Because actually if Puspa and Riksa can be together, I also feel it's a good thing and I'm very happy for them. Both of them there are men and women who are both beautiful and handsome they are also equally good, not they will look like a very harmonious couple even maybe very loving each other later.
Puspa chuckled, and what he did made his tears spill. Still chuckling, she wiped her tears that soaked her cheeks.
"You're right Naira, only nine times. I still have another chance, right?" puspa asked me, and quickly and steadily I nodded my head.
"But aren't you wondering why I like Rikas?" ask Puspa to me.
I didn't even think about it, I felt ordinary and I felt it was only natural that there was a woman who loved Rijakan, because I admired her too.
"Actually anyone who knew him and became his friend would be easy next to fall in love and admire a man like Riksa, right?" I asked Puspa again after expressing what I thought of Riksa.
And Puspa again nodded in agreement.
"Yes, we were right. I've loved it since we were in college. And at that time his attitude towards me was very good, and he was a man who was very close to me besides Samuel. But at that time I did not dare to express my feelings and my heart to him, I felt that I was less worthy. Because like what you said earlier she is very good, and my rival is even the daughter of the mayor. For some reason even though he never responded to those women and only wanted to walk with me, I did not feel insecure. Only after we were both established and had a good career did I dare to express my feelings. The first time, he did not immediately reply, but he implied that he also had the same feelings as me. Until the next day he said that it was better for us to be friends." explained Puspa whose face was getting longer and more sad expression.
I who can also feel that feeling try to rub Puspa's arm again trying to give him support and encouragement.
"This time is the same, and do you know why he rejected me again?" ask Puspa.
I just stared at Puspa, I know in fact it's not a question but rather a statement. So I just kept quiet and watched.
"He said he didn't deserve me, there was another man who deserved me more and loved me more. Ck. But I feel like she loves me. hiks..!" Puspa hugged me and he cried. I can understand the sadness he felt.
I rubbed his back, I heard Puspa's deep crying. I also felt that actually Riksa liked Puspa, when they danced at my wedding with Samuel, I could see it from their eyes when they looked at each other. But I don't understand why Riksa refused Puspa.
