Now they sit in long chairs. Far from the crowd.
"Hmm are you cold?" ask Keenan.
"Little bit" Rebecca said honestly. The wind that night was quite strong.
"Sorry" said Keenan.
"No problem" said Rebecca with curvy lips.
Keenan sighed.
"6 days have passed together, as I asked. Tomorrow is our last day together" Keenan said. For a moment he gathered his breath. "Did I succeed or fail? prove my feelings?" asked Keenan with reddened eyes.
Rebecca silenced for a moment to hear Keenan's words.
"I want to need an answer" Keenan said again as he gulped.
Rebecca took a long breath. His gaze was straight ahead.
"The disappointment you instill in this heart is still imprinted. It's even hard to destroy, where you think this marriage is a compulsion or a threat" Rebecca said. "I don't know how you feel or what your heart really is right now. Looks like....."
"The truth is I love you..really!" Soon Keenan cut off Rebecca's unfinished speech.
Rebecca shook her head while smiling slightly.
"It's not a feeling of love but a feeling of kasian," Rebecca said.
Keenan closed his eyes a moment later. The words that Rebecca shot were inverted far back with what was in her heart and feelings.
"I'm insisting we stay apart. Achieve the dreams and plans you have ever designed. I don't need to be pitied by Keenan, I let you go so no one gets hurt and hurt" Rebecca said, trying to hold back tears that had been reminisced in her eyes.
Rebecca's words slammed into Keenan's chest.
"What do I have to do to prove it? I really love you.not because of the kasian, coercion, threats and so on but this is purely from my feelings and my heart," Keenan concluded trying to melt Rebecca's heart.
"You love me? then let go of our relationship. I'll be happy after our separation" Rebecca said, now unable to contain her tears.
Keenan shook his head while holding Rebecca's shoulders.
"I'd be happy if this breakup happened" Rebecca said loudly without wanting to hear Keenan's explanation again.
Keenan can't do anything anymore. What Rebecca said couldn't have been forced.
"Is there really no chance?"
"There's no point in us spending time on this unimportant thing."
"That means I was wrong during our time together," Keenan said with a slick smile.
"I'm sorry, you seem to ask, I gave you the time you set."
Keenan again smiled slightly with a look of gloomy face.
"Well if that's what you want, even if I honestly oppose it. But as you say, I choose you to be happy compared to my own feelings. Thank you for our 6 days together" Keenan said.
"Is this all you're trying to get my heart back?" inner Rebecca felt disappointed by the actions of Keenan who gave up just like that.
"I was forced to choose your wish because it made you happy. I don't know where to take this journey of my life after our separation, "inward Keenan with both hands clenched.
"We'd better get home soon, it looks like it's going to rain" Keenan said as he got up from his seat.
Rebecca nodded in agreement as she also wanted to pour out her heart inside the bathroom in the apartment.
Both agreed to go home. On the way home the rain fell very heavy, as if knowing the hearts of the two people at this time.
It was as if the universe was crying over their separation.
**
Arrive at the apartment
There was no conversation between them. It was as if they were returning again like strangers.
He came in and locked the bathroom door. In front of the mirror he looked at his face with a feeling of guilt for having rejected the opportunity to improve their household relationship.
"I'm sure it's a better move" Rebecca muttered. "I do love you but when that sentence comes back to make this feeling crumble," he murmured back in tears.
**
Another case with the figure of a man who was lying on the sofa in front of the television. Since then he tried to close his eyes, wanting to fall asleep immediately so as to immediately forget the problems in the real world, especially Rebecca's rejection just now.
"I realized that the wound I had scratched was so deep that it was difficult to cover. But it was then and now that I really love you so much and don't even want to let you go" Keenan muttered without making a sound.
Regrets always come in the back. It's hard to let go as before. That's what Keenan is going through right now.
He failed to melt Rebecca's heart. He failed to close the wound he had created. He failed to get Rebecca's heart back.
°°°°°°
Next day
Early in the morning Keenan had disappeared without a message. Rebecca woke up without seeing the figure again.
"Where's he?" rebecca muttered after searching everywhere.
He was convinced that Keenan did not go to the office because the bags and shoes he used were still in place.
With mixed feelings Rebecca tried to put food in her mouth. Food that for 6 days is very tasty and delicious now as if the taste of pebbles are piercing.
Rebecca finally finished it. He went back into the room. Cleansing his body and wanting to soak for a moment, stretching every muscle very tired.
It took him 30 minutes to soak. As if remembering something he immediately finished and immediately packed.
**
Early in the morning Keenan took his car somewhere. But for it to go out because it is quite early in the morning and the air is also very cool.
To make him fall asleep in a sitting position in front of the steering wheel.
The sound of car horns in the parking lot alternated to make his sleep disturbed until he woke up.
"What time is it?" muttered Keenan with a raucous voice after waking up.
He also glanced at the watch on his wrist. There the clock pointed at 10 am, it turned out Keenan was asleep with a long duration.
Keenan got out of the car with a hand holding a flower. Then walk into the elite cemetery. It turns out that there are many other pilgrims to eat their relatives.
Now Keenan stands at the most elite cemetery and away from the other pilgrims. He lowered his head to lay the bunga while rubbing a headstone that read Deanda's name.
"Happy birthday, Auntie" said Keenan.
He stood up again with both hands in his pants pocket, staring at the headstone and the photo lying there.
"Auntie I'm sorry for upsetting Aunt up there. I'm sorry I was forced to let go of Eca because her wish was so great. The choice was so hard for me to choose. I want to make her happy and make her happy but of course with such a big choice. For the sake of his happiness I was forced to let go, although this feeling was very opposing because my love was so great for him," Keenan said with red eyes.
He sighed.
"I'm so sorry Auntie. I realized that my actions were very difficult to forgive. The wounds I've planted to date imprint on his heart and are hard to get rid of" he added.
For a moment Keenan closed his eyes.
"Today is our farewell, coinciding with Aunt's birthday. Auntie give me a chance to prove that I really love Eca and don't want this parting, tell her Aunt....." Kungkas Keenan involuntarily shed tears, even his voice was heard holding back a cry. "I love him so much......" His exclaim with a low tone even sounded very sad to smother the chest.
Deg
Suddenly the embrace of someone made Keenan's body freeze. Both of those little hands wrapped around her waist.
Seriate.....
