Hello Arvin!

Hello Arvin!
Fortunata


“A..a.. 1, 2, 3..” Said Arvin in standing microphone. “Vibrance, right?” He continued with a smile looking at the audience. Crowded audience voices answered Arvin's questions.


“How did Vin meet your fans again?” Ask MC. Arvin just smiled shyly at the question. “Lo where the hell is it? Rare show now? What have you been doing lately?” MC is excited.


“Emm.. I'm busy being a better man.” Arvin


‘Woaaaaah’ The voice of the audience dominated by women reacted very crowded to Arvin's statement.


“Wadd.. Siaaa. Very cool, Bang.” Reply MC “How about there are girls who want to be copied with Arvin better version?” Further.


‘MAUUU’


‘GUE TO, VIN!’


“Vin is Vin! Lots of people ask you to halalin. Cepetan lo data keep mintain his WA number!” Mc Exclamation. “Select which one you hand over! The Ma'am who wears white clothes is okay, Vin.”


“Gue give you free my number, Vin!” Said the woman in white who was appointed by the MC. A boisterous laugh rang out with his response. Arvin just smiled while shaking his head.


“However, Vin.”


“Sorry. Not first. There is a heart I must take care of.”


“Anjiiirrr. The latest gossip. Heartbroken don't you all Arvin has?”


Exciting conversations between the MCs and some of the band members continued for 10 minutes. While suctioning the musical instruments and testing the sound, they continued to talk. The atmosphere is very fluid, the audience is interactive and responds to the questions of the MCs as well as the band members with passion.


“OK. Previously thank you very much for you who always wait for us to band again. Lately I and the children are busy with work and personal affairs so rarely gig. Please congratulate Aldi dong first, because he only had baby.” yesterday Arvin said excitedly. Their drummer stood up and brandished his drum stick. The audience screamed cheering.


“Thank you also make a dateng.” Arvin. Nara felt that Arvin's gaze was directed at her, or just her feelings? Nara looked down in panic. “As my band name, if abis dengerin sound I may later you will be lucky.” Then a crisp laugh sounded from Arvin.


The music began to sound, with skillful Arvin playing his guitar. The first song she sang was Why’d you only call me when you’re high? For the second time Nara was glued to see Arvin's musical performance. His eyes widened in shock when he heard the raspy voice that Arvin let out singing every lyric of his chosen song. Really cool. Real cool. This time Nara did not forget to take her phone. Photographing and recording the appearance of his boss. He is not alone, and many do the same.


For 1 full hour Fortunata played various songs. They played more foreign rock and alternative rock songs, such as Royal Blood, Fall Out Boy, Arctic Monkey, All Time Low and Paramore. Makes the atmosphere festive. The audience seemed to have memorized the songs performed by Fortunata and hummed along. Nara just quietly followed because she did not know anything about the songs. Nara enjoyed it very much. He couldn't stop smiling as Arvin sang, joked with the audience, joked with the rest of his band.


Arvin was right, today his appearance managed to reduce the burden of Nara's mind. For a moment she took a break from thoughts about Reza, about her marriage, about her fears and worries. There was only Arvin standing, shining, and singing on stage. Seizing all of Nara's attention and focus.


...****************...


“Lo know who Arvin's girlfriend is?” A woman asked her two friends when Nara was on the toilet. Tidying up her performance after the music show is over.


“Not the Flower is the same as Gege? He used to pinch Arvin, but he didn't take it. It will be the same as Gege.”


“Tau. He said Arvin's now working in the office? Nerusin his father's business. Just found out he's a rich kid.”


“Tests. Pas High School like he's a mediocre kid aja anjir.” 


“Eh.. Lest the Arvin is still the same ex who fit the XI class first. Who tuh? Keysa yes?”


“It looks like a real. I just saw her together here with Keysa.”


“Crazy, durable too yes. Though already left for college in Aussie tetep still able to connect again.”


“Yaaah. failed me deketin Arvin.”.


“Dih from ancient times also we are difficult to deketin tuh child.”


Then they laughed and left the toilet while continuing to gossip. Nara had been listening to all their conversations. Looks like those guys are friends of Arvin High School, just like Aji. They don't know Arvin's rich kid, either? Is it possible that Arvin was dumped by his family long ago? Seeing how Angga's attitude towards him, and the attitude of his mother who did not want to know the state of Arvin when he entered the hospital. Only Candra keeps asking about Arvin to Nara while she is still recovering at home.


All the information about Arvin is like separate pieces to Nara. He just found out that Arvin has a girlfriend, even he has been dating her since school days. Not like the rumors circulating in his office, about Arvin who likes to play women. All the rumors about him were they just lies?


Nara can also sense that Arvin is not who she thought he was. He is able to sympathize with her, she is very responsive and reliable in her work. Actually he is easy to approach and invited to discuss by many divisions in the office, not arrogant as rumored.


It was getting dark when Nara came out of the Groove Bar, it was raining. Although only a small drizzle, and not disturbing but enough to make the clothes wet if you have to penetrate it. Nara was silent in front of the bar, waiting for the online taxi she had booked to pick her up.


From there, Nara can recognize Arvin's car in the parking lot, obsidian-colored in the forging of street lights that start to light up. Arvin walked with a woman beside him. Holding an umbrella with her left hand, and holding the waist of the woman with her right hand. They talk while laughing happily. Arvin opened the door so the woman could get into his car, before she ran a small run to the other side to get into the car. It felt strange today, Nara saw a lot of Arvin smiling. Make her heart comfortable, for whatever reason. He likes Arvin's smile. If only he kept smiling like that in the office and when dealing with him.


The sound of a small bell rang from his cell phone. There's a chat coming in. Nara immediately opened it after seeing the name on the screen.


Reza


[You're still mad at me? I'm sorry, Ra. Can we meet tomorrow?]


Nara's lips curled up a smile. Her feelings were suddenly relieved after getting a message from Reza. After 2 weeks of silence, they can finally meet again. Nara immediately replies to a message from her boyfriend. They need to meet and solve problems as soon as possible.


Nara remembered Arvin's words on stage. After hearing Arvin's singing voice there might be luck after. Like his band name, Fortunata—luck. Today Nara felt very lucky. Enjoy the afternoon listening to some fun music and be contacted again by Reza.
