Axel had arrived in front of the cafe. He leaned against his car body waiting for Renata to get out of there.
Fifteen minutes left.
Axel will wait patiently for him. Though he had been waiting for Gio for just over five minutes and he was already furious.
The one waiting finally came out as well. Axel approached, and gave her a bouquet of flowers. Renata stared at the beautiful flower.
"Make you!" axel.
Renata received her flowers with a thumping chest. Though he had warned his heart not to get stuck with his feelings, but what power if it turns out his heart is still sassy and betrayal!
"Xel, I need more time. I still don't want to ...."
"Let's be friends?" cut Axel. If Renata does not want to meet him then Axel will be more patient if you have to start again from the beginning.
Renata's heart ached hearing that. Befriends? It was like a knife was cutting his heart. Akh ... What does he think, he should be happy if Axel wants them to just be friends? Why is his heart so complicated?
"Renata. If you don't want to see me, as you want. I'll keep seeing you. How about we be friends first. We're running from the beginning again. Slowly. Like before? Do I have to go back to being Axel the cafe waitress so you can take me?" ask Axel.
A smile rose on Renata's lips. He shook his head.
"Cel, we need to find a place. I want to talk to you!" look at Renata right in Axel's eyes.
"Where? Dinner?" Axel asked happily but also worriedly. What was Renata willing to talk to him to the point that they had to find a place.
"I'd rather go to the park." replied Renata. Axel opens his car door and asks Renata to get in there.
"Okay princess, please come in!" axel said. Renata got in the car.
Thirty minutes later they arrived at a park. Axel chose a garden that is not too crowded. Although Renata did not say what kind of park he certainly did not want anyone to disturb if he wanted to talk seriously with her.
The air was quite cold that afternoon, the wind sent a moist smell of bersemilir, indicating soon it will rain, especially supported by the blackened sky.
They walked and sat on a wooden bench. Renata took a breath to prepare herself.
Axel was silent waiting for what Renata wanted to talk about.
"Xels. We'll just split up. We don't see each other again." Renata's tears just flowed. He had been thinking about this from a few days ago. Let him once again part with what he longs for. Her sister's. Brother's heart. At least he was relieved because Axel was the owner of the heart.
Axel stutters. Didn't expect to hear this from Renata.
"parted?" ask Axel not to believe it. Renata lowered his gaze. Her tears began to slide from her pretty eyes. He did not dare to look at Axel.
"Not Re. I don't want to!" axel. "Why? why would you want to split with me? You want to get away from me, don't you?" ask Axel grimly. She's upset. Unaccepting. Staring at Renata sharply.
"Xel, please. I don't deserve you. I am not worthy of you. I'm dirty!"
Again that's what he heard. He felt bored and angry with every single one of Renata's words lately.
"Re. Stop talking like that. What do you think I like about you and want to marry you for? Not because you are worthy or worthy! But because I like you. I love you the same. I don't care if you're dirty or you say you're unworthy, even if you're in the valley of blasphemy, I don't care either! I love you so much! I love you so much. I don't care, Re!"
"Please please, don't stay with me." Axel held onto Renata's hand. He turned, kneeling on the dirty ground before Renata. No matter the expensive pants that are now stained with mud.
"Please. I beg you" Axel kissed Renata's hand on his lap, he put his head there in the presence of the girl.
Renata fell silent, only this time there was a man who begged and prostrated before him.
"Replace, Re. I really don't care. All I want is to make you happy. Please let me make you happy. Please let me take away all your grief. I beg. I don't want to split with you. You're the only woman who can make me different, who can make me happy!" axel.
"Please please, let me take care of you huh?!" said Axel steady.
Renata wiped her tears.
"Please, mom and dad love you too. I beg you. We're together, huh? Don't remember your painful past. Consider it non-existent! Assume it never happened.
Renata sobbed at his place, not expecting that this young man was truly sincere to him.
Axel looked at Renata, hoping that the girl would say something.
Renata again shrank the tears on her cheeks. Then he nodded.
"I'll try" said Renata.
Axel pulled both corners of his lips to the side. He was so happy it was incredible that he woke up and soared happy. Renata smiled shyly. Some people stared at them.
...***...
Axel was silent when Renata kicked him out of the boarding house. He wants to take Renata home, but Renata insists on staying back in the cramped place.
"Re, just go home. I'm afraid you're alone here." Axel said. Renata just shook his head.
"Xel, I want to live independently. I'm not pa-pa, really. It's mundane. Did you forget before that I was also living alone?" ask Renata.
"I didn't forget. But with the condition of your hand .... You better not work?" axel was worried.
"I will keep working, besides my work is also now just clean up the same catet order. My left hand doesn't move very much. No heavy lifting, really!" Renata calms Axel down.
Axel still won't accept it.
"Rre ...."
"Xels. Pleases. Like you asked me to. I'm asking you too, don't forbid me from doing work, will you?!" pinta Renata's.
Axel sighed. "OK, but you promised me that if you're tired, you need to rest."
"Yes!" said Renata. He pushed Axel's chest away from the door.
"There you go home. It's night." It's night."
"I don't want to go home. Still want to be here!" axel said in a spoiled tone. Renata sighed, this man was fickle, only then did he know that Axel could be spoiled as well.
"Xel don't spoil! I'm gonna take a shower and rest." Renata glares. Axel was disappointed but he also had to understand the state of the girl.
"Tomorrow morning, if you have time to pick me up. Get me a job!" pinta Renata's. Axel raised his face and smiled happily.
"OKAY. Yes, I'm home then. Good night, Re. Happy resting!" Axel approached and kissed Renata's head, leaving the girl speechless.
Axel bailed on Renata, and then went to head towards his car which he parked on the side of the road.
Renata looked at Axel's departure. He held his own chest that was beating so fast.
The heart cannot be lied to. No matter how much he wanted to get away from Axel, but his heart just kept wanting him.
Let it. Maybe it's true what Axel said. He had to forget the past and he had to be born again.
