Call Me a Rose
Chapter 64

"What is your wish achieved, are you satisfied now?"

That sentence slapped Jelita's heart.

"What do you mean?", he asked completely cluelessly.

"Isn't this what you want? Seeing Arya destroyed and became a child of disobedience that disappointed his mother. Plus Arya can not accompany her mother at the last moment until she has to pick up death without her family?"

Hearing that, Jelita became dumbfounded, until her body sat on the ground. Jelita had just realized, that she had become a very cruel figure. Manipulating evil only for the sake of his personal ambition to take revenge.

"In, am I that bad in your eyes? Did I really turn into a terrible monster because of my momentary ambition?"

Jelita asked with a trembling voice. Maybe this is what Jelita wanted. But for some reason when all came true, he did not feel happy. However, hatred dominates his heart, it turns out that the sadness and destruction of the person he hates is not able to give satisfaction and happiness imagined.

Jelita used to think that she would feel happy and satisfied when she saw Arya destroyed and feel pain like her. But it didn't. He still felt empty as he watched all the destruction of his opponents.

"So how do you feel now? Are you satisfied? Do you feel happy when you see Arya destroyed?", Diara instead threw the question.

Jelita just shook her head. Because what he felt at this time, he actually felt sorry and also sad. And what he regretted the most was that he was the one who had planned all these scenarios.

"If you also feel sad or at least you do not feel happy above the suffering of people, that means your conscience still has Je..."

Diara was approaching, and hugged Jelita who was crying for nothing.

"It's ok, its ok Jelita.we are ordinary humans, there is a sense of disappointment, there is a heartache that sometimes blinds our eyes so we can do things out of control. Yesterday, however I tried to remind you, still you do not want to be horrified because your eyes are closed to lust. Lust to destroy the one who ever hurt you. But now when all has happened you just understand what I mean?"

Jelita nodded and hugged Diara tightly.

"I'm sorry Di.maafin I'm stubborn and do not want to be horrified you, sorry I'm selfish and just want to win alone..."

"Yes Di, thank you for always ngingetin me, and sorry if all this time I have often prejudiced the same you until our relationship becomes cold. Even you have to resign from work because it does not feel the same as my nature, right?"

Hearing that Diara shook her head strongly.

"It's not Je. We have been at odds a lot lately, but the reason I quit is not just because of this. This problem actually made me realize, that I still have a dream that I want to make happen, and I do not want to be forever stuck in a job that is only a short escape for me..."

"Damn lo! So you're assuming my office job is just an escape?"

The atmosphere that had originally dented the blue was instantly melting.

"Yes that's how Je works, so I feel like a robot!"

"And you're the best robot I've ever kept!"

"Damn lo!"

Behind the head of Jelita with annoyance.

"Daddy yuk, cook we chat here, find a place fun cake..."

"Yes, where are you going?"

"Eat mevvvah, but yeah?"

"Ye, is it on me again? Come on!"

Finally they both glided to a restaurant in a star hotel with Mr. Bin escorted. There Jelita and Diara exchanged many stories. Unraveling the misunderstandings that have kept them far away. Diara tells all, how she once felt desperate to almost commit suicide and finally met with Arya and her mother. Jelita also felt very sorry for her insensitive attitude. Jelita is too focused on her own problems and affairs, to not realize that her best friend also has problems and is in need of her.
