Hello Arvin!
Bereft

“Mother is gone, Vin.” Keysa said just before her tears broke. He sagged down in front of the ICU room.

Arvin was still gasping for air as he ran towards where Keysa was. Seeing him crumble and grieving like that made him sympathize. Arvin immediately pulled Keysa's body to his feet and hugged her. His frail body trembled violently due to the cry of loss.

Keysa could say almost nothing but scream hysterically. Lost the only family member he had. Although he still has his om and aunt and cousins out of town, it will not be the same. Because Keysa just lost his mother, his world.

All of this still leaves Keysa in shock. He was sitting in the ICU waiting room. His gaze was empty, he just stared and pensively there. While Arvin was busy taking care of the return of his mother's body. Calling people who can help prepare the funeral home, and also contacting the other Keysa family.

Keysa's distant brother arrived from out of town at 03:00 in the morning. Immediately crying approached the body of Keysa's mother who had been forgiven. Om and his aunt embraced and strengthened Keysa's heart one by one. But he just kept quiet and didn't respond to anything.

He did not rest, did not fall asleep, only looked at his mother's face lying lifelessly surrounded by those who prayed for him. While continuing to hold tightly Arvin's hand which was on his side

Keysa's mother was buried at 07:00 a.m. The mood of grief covers the funeral. Keysa, who had been silent all night, cried hysterically again after little by little the ground began to cover her mother's lifeless body. Keysa was unconscious because of the sadness.

All the funerals went well besides that. Keysa is now conscious and is in the room with his cousin and his other brother. After continuing to accompany Keysa all night, Arvin can be a little free now. He chose to sit on a plastic chair that had been provided in the garage.

There are still many neighbors there. Talk after the funeral. Some guests were also just there. To offer condolences to the family.

“Lo here from when, Vin?” Ask Restu who just arrived with other Fortunata children.

“From malem, pas Key did not know mom entered the ICU. Do you know where?” Arvin Reply. She has not contacted anyone for accompanying Keysa and helping with her mother's funeral.

“Liat story IG by Key this morning. Late huh? Are you guaranteed?” Connect Gege.

“Hmm.. Just now anyway. Kedalem used to be there.”

They immediately walked into the house to meet Keysa and offered their condolences as well, like the other guests present.

“Lo from malem here, your wife is okay?” Aldi asked who was in the back row, patted Arvin's chest then passed following the others.

Die up!

Arvin forgot to call Nara. He was too focused on taking care of and accompanying Keysa. Last night Arvin also did not tell Nara that he was leaving, Arvin did not want to wake Nara who was asleep that night. He thought he would be back in a few hours unnoticed by Nara. It turns out that Arvin was trapped until morning because when Keysa's mother was dead.

A feeling of panic begins to overwhelm Arvin as he pulls his phone out of his pants pocket. The watch shows it's 08:00. Nara had obviously been up since morning. He must be confused to see Arvin suddenly disappear. But Nara did not contact her at all to ask her whereabouts. Arvin felt strange and restless.

“Ngapain lo here?” Arvin asked in surprise when he saw Rivanno coming. She put off a phone call she was going to make to Nara when she saw her cousin's face.

“Takziah. What's the matter here yourself? Where's your wife?” Ask Rivanno.

Arvin did not answer. He felt annoyed at his cousin and annoyed at himself who momentarily forgot Nara's whereabouts.

“Ah don't answer. I came before here to call Key first. He said he was from Malem. So sweet to the ex. Don't you want to get married?” Rivanno said with a satisfied smile.

“Try me guess. Nara doesn't know you're here, does she? Wahsht. You have started to have symptoms like bokap lo, Vin.” He continued while chuckling, then left Arvin still upset.

Arvin quickly pressed the phone button, contacting Nara. But there's no answer. Her phone was active, but Nara did not pick up the call.

[Arvin: Are you awake? I'm sorry I didn't tell you last night when you left. I'm at the temen house again. Her mother died]

[Arvin: Nara, why don't you pick up the phone? You woke up, right?]

The message this time was not read by Nara.

Arvin's getting panicked and guilty. He immediately went inside the house, meeting Keysa who was still sitting weakly in his bed with his cousin.

“Key, I want to go home.” Arvin said from the doorway.

Keysa looked at Arvin sadly and unwillingly. Like begging Arvin to stay close to him. Keysa tells his cousin to leave him alone with Arvin. Now Arvin is sitting in one of the chairs near Keysa's dresser.

“You want to stay a little longer, Vin? This afternoon sampe. Please.” Keysa said begging almost to tears as he approached Arvin.

“Ngga. I gotta go home, Key. I was malem did not tell Nara first if I went to see you.”

“Can we not talk about him first? The one who is grieving and needs you is me, Vin!” Keysa said in frustration.

“Key, beyond many of your cousins, brothers, and friends. You don't need me anymore, they can get you now. You'll be fine with them.”

“I'm not okay if I'm not with you, Vin!” Jerky Keysa. “Please this day, Vin!” Keysa started crying.

“Don't like gini, Key. I can't continue to be there for you, I'm married and have a wife.” Arvin clasped Keysa's hand standing in front of him.

“You don't know, Vin? I kept calling you before I was unconscious and in the ICU. He kept asking you, when we married, when you went to my bedroom. Until he died, he could never see me marrying you, Vin.”

“I'm sorry I didn't tell your mom the truth that I was married and made her wish that far. But you know from the beginning our relationship will not get there, right, Key?”

“Why, Vin? I told you I could be your second wife. I don't get any confessions either. We just married Siri, no problem either. I need you, Vin. I don't have anyone.”

Arvin sighed, “Keysa, stop! I can't possibly do the same thing as my father. Same marriage with two women at once. I don't have any feelings for you. So stop begging kayak gini like me.” Arvin said, getting up from his chair and looking into Keysa's eyes.

“I sympathize with your sadness and loss because we have known you for a long time. You were special to me. But we are adults and our feelings have changed. I can't have any relationship with you.”

“My heart has not changed with you, Vin.”

“Then I doang changed, and I can not continue to give you hope. I said yes.” Arvin hugs Keysa who is now crying. He could finally leave the place.

Arvin feels guilty, sad, pity. Keysa is always special. There was a corner in his heart specifically for the girl. But his feelings aren't as big as his obsession with Nara for now.

But Nara repeatedly refused. Nara hurt him repeatedly. But strangely Arvin can't stop chasing after her. Forcing her to fall in love was also what Arvin felt.

Probably because that night, when Arvin first touched her. He felt that at that time Arvin had Nara. Just for himself.

The phone's still stuck in Arvin's ear. Repeatedly contacted Nara's phone but there was no reply either. Even until he had walked down the aisle to his penthouse, Arvin kept calling.

But when he got there, only silence greeted him. Nara is nowhere.
