Love Above the Wounds
Fitri Go

Two months passed already, Riana's relationship with Raihan turned out to be completely over. Between willing and unwilling, because Riana still holds a love for her former fiance. On the other hand Riana and Rama are getting closer, they communicate every day if they are free. The presence of Rama on his side makes the woman can forget Raihan for a moment. Although Raihan's shadow didn't completely disappear in her mind, Riana tried her hardest to forget Raihan.

This morning Riana pecked herself in front of the mirror, her smile rose when she woke up, she was found to come by the moon, which indicates if she is not pregnant. The cycle comes irregular months because he is too stressed and exhausted. Riana breathed in relief after a month of feeling a huge stone squeeze her chest when anxiety about her becoming pregnant or not always haunting. Now her pretty face looks even more beautiful when her lips are touched with peach-colored lipstick. He re-examined his appearance before leaving for the office.

Riana glanced briefly at her vibrating phone accompanied by a notification of incoming messages, she then picked up the phone. Her lips smiled thinly when reading a message from Rama, until Riana replied to her childhood friend's message briefly, before then put the phone in a bag and immediately out of the apartment.

Although still leaving a sense of tightness, Riana tried to be fine. Especially when in the office, again he had to find Raihan was with Anggun. The two lovers still look warm and radiate love to each other. Riana was grieving, her heart was sliced with grief, but there was no way she would cry which many employees would later witness.

"Strong Ri, you can do it." Riana gave herself some encouragement. Strengthen the heart to pass Raihan with his new lover. He must get used to it, because in the future he will often be in the West Building to deliver his duties to the division that is one floor with the Raihan division.

"Ri, I'm going to get you." Whether since when Sella had been by her side, Riana was unaware of the woman's arrival, as her focus was only on Raihan and the male lover. Sella embraces Riana's arm and tries to strengthen her.

"Sell, slow down the road." Riana whispered as Sella pulled her arm to speed up their steps.

"Udah deh Ri, we have to walk fast. Raihan can see you, later he thinks you caper with him, 'not really," he whispered. Sella just doesn't want the man to assume his friend failed to move on.

Riana nodded at Sella's words that had a point. So that Riana's steps accelerated with a straight forward gaze without looking at her former fiance. But without knowing if from earlier Raihan had realized his existence and the tail of his eyes had a brief glance. There was a sudden feeling of longing that just slipped in, but he had already decided to be together with Anggun, considering Anggun was the right woman for him.

***

Towards dusk, Riana stood by playing a mobile phone in front of her company building. The woman was waiting for Rama to pick her up, as they were going to watch a movie that was booming in the cinema. Riana suddenly raised her face as the sound of a horn jerked her ears, instantly Riana threw a smile at the figure of Rama who had just come.

"Wait a long time Ri? Sorry the road was jammed." Rama smiled at the horse while thrusting the helmet at Riana.

"It's okay Ram, just relax. I haven't seen the moss waiting for you either."

Rama chuckles, though says it's okay but Riana's lips are irritated. Rama then takes over the helmet from Riana's hands.

"What do you want? Why was the helmet taken again?" Riana was flabbergasted for a moment, just as she was about to put on a helmet, but Rama snatched the helmet from her hand.

"Will wear you a helmet. I can't possibly throw the helmet off either. The price is expensive," said Raihan while putting a helmet on Riana's head. The woman complied until the helmet was successfully attached to her head.

"Yes. yeah... Ram. Meningan we quickly walk, later to watch the movie."

"Jaudah ride Ri. You're still standing."

"Yes...." Riana immediately went up on Raihan's motorbike. After making sure Riana was sitting comfortably, Rama immediately drove his motorbike at medium speed.

It did not take long, Riana and Rama arrived at one of the Mall in Jakarta. Both had booked tickets and entered the cinema as soon as the operator told them the film was about to start.

Riana and Rama occupy their respective seats. As usual, Riana was watching seriously. But in the middle of the film, Rama's hand clasped his hand. Just now making Riana scream in shock, her head turned to the side and along with Rama who also turned to her. Highlight Riana's eyes demanded an explanation to Rama.

"Let's believe me Ri, don't let go."

"But Ram..."

"Shhhttt..." When Riana was about to throw a protest, Rama's index finger stuck to Riana's lips, so that her friend did not talk much. "We'll see it again, the movie's about to end." And then Rama again looked straight ahead with a sitting position as before but his hands were increasingly strengthened holding the hands of his childhood friend.

After the end of the film and out of the cinema, Riana's eyes look blank. He really only watched the middle of the story, then Riana's mind went crazy somewhere.

"Ri, why the hell is he?" Rama shook Riana's hand which was still held by him.

"It's okay Ram. I'm just a little sleepy." Riana smiled revealing her white teeth. To be honest, he was troubled by how he felt. Rama's really successful in getting him screwed up tonight.

"We eat first Ri, that's my brother, I anter you again to the apartment."

Riana just nodded with her innocent face, to make Rama chuckle and whether or not the man pulled Riana's hand and let Riana's back down.

Riana was frozen and flabbergasted by Rama's attitude. The woman felt that something was wrong with Rama. Did his friend's head hit something? If people were to look at them at this moment, it was certain to conclude they were lovers.

"R... Ri.... Rianna...."

Raihan had to shake both arms of Riana who was still tightly hugging her waist. Rama's motorbike has just landed in front of Riana's apartment, but Riana does not come down from the motorbike, even though she has called him repeatedly.

"Yes Ram, I'm down ya." Riana who was shocked and only realized that their position had arrived in front of the apartment, hurriedly got off the bike. He looks stupid tonight, since at the restaurant Riana continues to act stupid and Rama repeatedly reprimanded him. "It's your helmet Ram, thank you." Riana returns Rama's helmet after releasing it.

Rama took his helmet, put it in the back seat of the bike. The man got off the bike and stood by Riana's side. The towering body of Rama makes Riana have to look up in order to see the handsome face of Rama.

"Ehm Ri, I'm sorry if I confused you." Rama scratched the nape of his neck. He also realized that his attitude was what made Riana look stupid and dumbed down along the way.

"Yes Ram, why are you so weird about his attitude?" Yes, Riana demanded an explanation, as if the man before her was not Rama.

"Not strange Ri, actually I really want to behave like I can continue to you, but I'm afraid you're angry, so I can only just make it." Rama put on a sincere smile. Maybe tonight will reveal something after a long time just buried in the heart.

"What do you mean Ram?" Riana failed to digest.

"I love you and I love you Ri." Finally the sentence was said from the lips of Rama after many years hiding behind the bonds of childhood friends.
