Don't Call Me an Actor!

Don't Call Me an Actor!
Wounded


Nayla was waiting for Reyhan to come, the young man did ask to meet this Sunday near the Nayla campus. Nayla sits herself in a gazebo in the park. Nayla awaits the arrival of her lover with joy.


While waiting for Reyhan, Nayla researched the college assignment that had just been given by her lecturer. Nayla only attended college on weekends because she took employee classes.


"Rey, where are you?" Nayla closes her workbook and spreads her gaze around, hoping Reyhan will show up soon.


"What does Rey want to say? How serious it sounded just now," Nayla scratched her hair.


The question swirling around in his head immediately disappeared after seeing Rey's car coming and parking right in a parking area not far from where Nayla was sitting. Nayla smiles as Rey exits the car, but her smile disappears as Luna exits Rey's car.


"Why did Luna get to be with Rey?" Nayla Mumbles.


Reyhan and Luna walked to the gazebo where Nayla was sitting.


"Cok can you guys do it together?" Nayla immediately asked the question that she had wanted to ask.


"Emm," Reyhan's face looked very pias. Even Nayla could see the man's lips quivering slightly.


"I'm the same Rey who wants to talk to you, Nay," this time Luna spoke. His face looks very tense.


"What's this for?" Nayla was confused by herself.


"Let's sit! You must be hungry, right?" Nayla pulls Luna and Reyhan's hands to sit by her side.


"Mang Cuanki!!" Call Nayla to a cuanki merchant who is not far from where they are sitting.


"I'm not hungry, Nay," Reyhan refused.


"We eat first, we talk."


"How many bowls, Neng?" Ask the salesman as he stops in front of Nayla.


"Three yes, Mang. One of them is siomaynya. One knows siomay, another baso and another," Nayla dictates her order. He is indeed very well memorized the favorite portion of Luna and Rey.


The salesman gave each one a bowl to Nayla, Luna and Reyhan. Nayla immediately grabbed the sauce and poured it into her bowl.


"Nay, I told you not to eat too much spicy! Especially after this there will be no one to take you anymore," Reyhan said softly while taking the bottle of sambel in Nayla's hand.


"You mean Rey?" Nayla seemed to not understand.


"Take it, Nay!" Cut Luna.


Nayla also ate her own canki with a confused feeling. His heart somehow felt that nothing was right. They also enjoy the typical Bandung food dish with silence, no one speaks. Everyone is busy with their thoughts. Even the savory and delicious taste of the food tasted very bland in the mouths of Reyhan and Luna.


"So, what do you want to talk about? Why can we do it together? Tumben," Nayla immediately asked the question that she had been holding.


Reyhan and Luna looked at each other.


"Nay, I'm sorry!" Luna hugged Nayla and cried.


"What's wrong with you, Lun?" Nayla gasped in shock hearing Luna sobbing.


"I'm not a good friend to you. Even I don't know if I deserve to be called your best friend or not" Luna tightened her tears even more.


"Lun, what are you talking about? I don't understand."


Luna pulls herself out of Nayla's arms. He took a tissue from his bag and wiped his tears.


"Rey, what's up?" This time Nayla glanced at Reyhan.


"Nay, I'm sorry. I don't think we can continue our relationship" Reyhan said with his head bowed.


"Who-you mean?" Nayla jumped as the word she feared finally came out of Reyhan's lips.


"B-but why? Why suddenly?" Nayla's defense eventually collapsed. Tears could no longer be shed.


"Because Mama's already betrothed me to another woman, Nay. I don't want to be a disobedient child" Reyhan spoke slowly.


Reyhan's tears also seeped from his eyes. He had not expected that this day would come, the day of his farewell with the woman who had been his lover for many years and accompanied his days.


"Why haven't you talked to me before, Rey? If you've been betrothed for a long time, I'll definitely back off and I won't have to feel this much pain" Nayla raised her voice.


"I think I can still refuse my mother's request and get married to you, Nay. But in the end I couldn't. I had to accept it. The woman who gave birth to me, Nay. I don't want to be an ungodly child" Reyhan's fingers lifted to wipe away Nayla's tears. Nayla immediately distanced her face.


"Haha," Nayla laughed with tears in her eyes.


"I am a fool. From the beginning of our relationship was already not condoned, but why do I still force to be with you? I was naive, indeed" Nayla laughed and wiped her tears.


Then his gaze turned to Luna who had already silenced a thousand languages.


"Don't tell me you're the one who's been betrothed to Rey!" Nayla closed her eyes.


"I'm sorry, Nay!" That was the only word Luna could say.


"When you told me you were being betrothed, did you know that person was Rey?" Nayla asked with a heavy voice.


Luna nodded without answering.


"But why didn't you tell me back then, Lun? Why?!!" Snap Nayla.


"Because I don't want to make you sad," Luna cried with a sigh.


"With you keeping this a secret, you've hurt me even further, Lun. If I had known for a long time, I would have stopped and tried to forget Rey. And now that I know everything when Rey immediately breaks up with me," Nayla screamed. Fortunately, the park was quiet enough that no one was watching their quarrel.


"Nay, relax!" Reyhan was about to touch Nayla's hand.


"Never touch me again! I think our conversation is over. I pray your marriage is smooth and you are always in happiness," Nayla felt as if dozens of swords were pounding her heart.


"Nay, wait!" Reyhan got up and held Nayla's hand.


"What else?" Nayla let go of her hand.


"I don't love Luna. I just love you. After marrying Luna, I will find a way to divorce her. After that I'll come back to you, "Reyhan's eyes have warmed up a lot.


"returned? And we thought, I want to come back with you? WHAT DO YOU THINK I AM?" Nayla screamed with her growing cries.


"Nay, relax!" Luna stood up and held Nayla's hand.


"I believe I don't want to marry Rey. We had to do it for both of our parents. Understand, Nay! Kamj knows I have a boyfriend. I'll try to get a divorce with Rey, after which you can be together again" Luna continued to hold Nayla's hand.


"Lun?" Nayla releases her hand which is being held by Luna.


"You're a woman. How can you play a wedding? Be happy! I don't want to go back to your future husband! Take my old stuff!" Nayla turned her body and left Reyhan and Luna who were still staring at her with a thousand wounds.


Nayla went straight home on the bus. Along the way to his house, Nayla's tears could not stop. His chest was as if he had been hit by thousands of daggers. Stiffness, pain. That's what Nayla felt. How not? His girlfriend will marry his best friend.


"Left, Sir!" Nayla got up and got off the bus.


"Nobody's home yet?" Tanya Dwi who saw her brother arrive home.


"Sir Nay crying?" The turn of his youngest sister, Bayu asked.


Nayla did not reply, she went straight into her room. Nayla sat on the floor. He cried when he remembered his meeting with Reyhan and Luna.
