Devara drove her car away from the campus. Devara takes Ayra for a walk to the biggest Mall in the city. Then they stopped by one of the contemporary cafes that were hits in the city of S. While waiting for their order to come, they also talked lightly.
“How did you study at Cambridge?” ask Ayra
“Register Devara replied lightly
“How common? You there college what's playing anyway?”gerutu Ayra heard Devara's reply.
“Ya lecture. You think I'm messing around like you”vap Devara keceplosan
Ayra immediately scrunched her forehead.
“How does he know I'm messing around here?”ayra muttered in the heart
“What do you mean I'm messing around?”search Ayra
“Ah.no. It's nothing”kelit Devara
“Lying! You must be hiding something” said Ayra
“Come Ay..we haven't seen each other in a long time.cook we have to fight just because of a trivial problem like this? Don't you miss me?”ask Devara
“Of course I miss you”Ayra replied inwardly
“Why are you silent? Let's answer my question! Don't you miss me?”ask Devara again
“How about you? You never called me. Not once have you contacted me” asked Ayra back.
“I..just fear” replied Devara making Ayra confused.
“Fear? A Devara Alexander scared?” ayra Ejek
“Newly know me if you also have fear.besides fear of insects certainly”ejek Ayra again.
“Don't tease me! I'm just scared.you haven't forgiven me” Devara replied with a sad look.
A servant came to bring their order. Devara took the order and placed the drink and food in front of Ayra.
“Thanks” Devara said to the waiter. Ayra could not believe what she heard.
“She has changed a lot” muttered Ayra in heart.
Ayra immediately sipped the drink that was in front of her while looking at the handsome young man in front of her. Devara's appearance now also looks more mature. A year without seeing each other, it seems to make Devara more mature. More manly.
Feeling stared at, Devara looked back at Ayra. Making a pretty girl is wrong. Devara smiled looking at Ayra who was misbehaving due to her gaze.
“I've forgiven you”ucap Ayra suddenly, making Devara who was sipping her drink to choke.
“Uhuk..uhuk.Devara choked in shock
Ayra who was confused by Devara's reaction immediately approached Devara while patting Devara's back gently.
“You all right?”ask Ayra to worry.
“I didn't papa.. uhuk..uhuk” replied Devara.
After drinking the drink more slowly, Devara felt better.
Ayra looked at Devara with a very worried face.
Devara clasped Ayra's hand to calm her down.
“I'm fine”ucap Devara
Aware Devara clasped her hand, Ayra immediately withdrew her hand. Makes Devara a little disappointed with “denial” Ayra.
“Can I not hold your hand either?” devara asked after seeing Ayra pull her hand.
“Sorry Dev..aku.aku..”ucap Ayra stammered.
“You said you forgave me. But why do I feel like you just turned me down, ' said Devara disappointed.
“Not so”ucap Ayra fast.
“Then why?”ask Devara
“I.just not ready. I have forgiven you, but that does not mean I have forgotten everything that has happened, Ayra said
Apparently the wound in Ayra's heart was still there. All the memories of two years ago, were still imprinted in his heart.
“Can't we start all over again?”ask Devara expectantly.
Ayra was silent. He saw the clock in his hand. It's time for Ayra to go back to college.
“I have to go back to campus now”ucap Ayra
“Good. I take back” replied Devara listlessly.
The two returned to the university. Throughout the journey they were silent. Dissolved in their own daydreams.
Arriving at the campus, Devara dropped Ayra off at building B, where Ayra was to attend.
“Let me pick up”ucap Devara and leave Ayra alone.
Ayra just stared while watching Devara's car disappear in the crowd of vehicles that passed by.
Hp Ayra. A message notification came in. Apparently Devara sent him a chat.
This is Devara's first chat since their breakup a year ago.
“What time did you finish college?”ask Devara
“Jam 13.00”answer Ayra
“Good. Wait for me where I dropped you off last”message Devara
Ayra did not answer. In his heart raged various feelings. Between happy, sad, afraid everything mixes into one.
On the one hand, Ayra is happy because apparently Devara still misses her as much as she does. But on the other hand, Ayra was afraid. The shadow of his farewell to Devara a year ago left a deep mark on his heart. Devara's words and treatment that hurt her heart kept ringing in her mind. Makes Ayra not dare to go further. Although Ayra was also aware, Devara's anger at that time was not Devara's fault alone.
During the day, after the lecture was over,
Ayra looks down the stairs of the college building. Someone called out to him, making Ayra look towards the source of the voice.
“Ayra?”call Aldo
“What's up?”ask Ayra
Devara, who had been waiting for Ayra since then, saw Aldo approaching Ayra, looked dislike. Once again Devara appears between the two of them.
Devara immediately stood beside Ayra and put on a rogue face. His face seemed to be very intimidating to his opponent. Ayra, who did not expect Devara's presence, was able to quickly capture Devara's hostile aura on Aldo.
“Let me call again ya Al”ucap Ayra.
“We go now”ajak Devara while pulling Ayra's hand to the car.
In the car, both of them were still silent. Ayra is angry that Devara is being so unfriendly towards Aldo. Devara, who was driving, also harbored anger after seeing Aldo approaching Ayra.
“Why are you? Aldo just wanted to discuss with me”thanya Ayra was not happy with Devara's attitude earlier when with Aldo.
“Didn't you reject him, why should he approach you? I don't like” replied Devara ketus.
“Stop the car!”exclaim Ayra
Devara pulled the car over.
“Where did you know I rejected Aldo? Are you not spying on me? Let's say! Did you send your men to spy on me” exclaimed Ayra in a high tone.
Devara was disappointed in herself who was lost. He finally confessed.
“True.I sent my men to watch over you” replied Devara.
“Since when?”ask Ayra fiercely
“Since you entered college” replied Devara slowly.
“What? So all this time you've been spying on me”Ayra was angry at Devara's answer.
“I did it just to protect you. That's it”bela Devara.
“You know, I hate to be spied onI”tough Ayra
“I think you've changed. You are still the same as before. Never pay attention to the feelings of others. You only care about yourself”ucap Ayra sad
“Then you want me to be quiet, while you're close to such a geeky guy” Devara starts to vent his emotions.
“If I hadn't thought about your feelings, I would have appeared before you a long time ago. Of course I won't let another man come near you. Especially if you dare to touch you. You don't know how I should have held myself back from seeing you and calling you this whole time. How should I let the man hitchhike you and hold your hand” Devara said emotionally.
Ayra is shocked because Devara even knows Aldo once held her hand.
“What have you known all this time?”ask Ayra
“I know everything. I know you play a lot. Motoring with your friends. Hanging out indistinctly after college. Even I know you guys used to dance hand in hand night-night-” Devara replied as she looked at Ayra.
Ayra bowed her head because she regretted the “kalak” she had done early in college.
Devara stroked Ayra's head slowly.
“At first I was very angry, as soon as I heard the news. It's like it wasn't Ayra I've known all along. I can't believe you can do all those things. But then I realized, each of us must have made a mistake. And it is those mistakes that make us learn better. That's why I deliberately let you like that, until you realize for yourself the mistakes you've made” Devara revealed at length.
Hearing all Devara's words, made Ayra's heart touched with Devara's maturity now. Although not yet fully mature, but the way Devara's view of dealing with his mischief first, completely out of Devara's habit.
“Sorry has disappointed you” said Ayra Lirih.
Her tears flowed from her eyes.
“Have not cried. What matters now is how we fix our mistakes. Right?”devara asked as she wiped Ayra's tears.
Ayra nodded slowly.
“Do you know why I suddenly showed up now?”ask Devara
Ayra shakes.
“That's because I heard you rejected that guy. I'm so glad that there's still a place for me in your heart. That's why I flew here yesterday. I left all my office and college work, to be able to see you soon” Devara's fiery conversation.
Devara looked at Ayra very gently and rubbed the remaining tears on her cheeks. When looking at Ayra's ranum lips, it made Devara's heart beat very tight. How much he missed those lips all this time. The two looked at each other. Devara looked at Ayra's lips. Even unconsciously, Devara's fingers touched Ayra's lips gently. Both hearts ran. Cracked with irregular. Devara then brought her body closer towards Ayra while tilting her head slightly. Devara's left hand grabbed Ayra's nape. Prepare to kiss Ayra's red lips.
“I miss you”ucap Devara slowly
Ayra's heart was beating very fast. His eyes blinked many times. Because Ayra understands very well the next scene of a moment like this. Ayra's two hands were about to push Devara's body. But Devara's right hand grabbed him and lowered him.
Eventually, the second kiss happened. Their moment of intimacy also happened. Both are dissolved in longing. The warm kiss of the two makes them lulled in love. They exchanged warm kisses. With their eyes closed to each other.
Devara was happy because Ayra returned her kiss. The lips of the two fused to release the yearning that they had been feeling for one year.
Eventually the two let go of a kiss on each other's lips. Both opened their eyes at the same time. Devara smiled as did Ayra.
Devara then hugged the tiny body of Ayra. Devara hugged him very tightly.
“I miss you so much”cap Devara softly
“I also”balas Ayra
The two embrace each other. It was a longing that had plagued both of them for a year.
Devara then let go of her embrace and gently rubbed Ayra's head. The two smile at each other. Devara drives her car while holding Ayra's hand. It's like he's not gonna let go of Ayra this time.
Every now and then Ayra threw her gaze at the handsome young man beside her. A man who means a lot in his life. How much Ayra loves Devara. How much he missed that guy.
