Love Above the Wounds
Past Times

As if something was stuck in her throat, Riana had difficulty making a sound. Even he tried to stay in his consciousness when a sentence that was like thousands of needles hit his heart.

"Rai, w-what do you mean? You don't joke." Riana's lips trembled as she said it, she hoped that if Raihan was just joking or was pranking herself.

"Sorry..." That sentence that Raihan was able to say to Riana. "You take care of yourself, yes" he added later.

"Ray.. but-"

Riana had not been able to talk, her phone connection had been cut off unilaterally by Raihan. "Raaaiii.. hello Raii... You must be kidding Raiii?!"

But the woman kept talking even though Raihan could not hear her across the street. Riana's tears were shed, her chest really felt tight. The phone he held slipped on the mattress, as if his strength was thinning just to hold his phone.

"I want us to break first."

"Don't bother me anymore."

"Sorry..."

And the sentences spoken by Raihan were like audio that kept swirling around in his head.

"You must be joking Rai, there's no way you can be the same with me. We don't have any problems Rai. You must be kidding, you must be kidding." Riana continued to concoct with her own assumptions. He convinced himself that Raihan did not mean it with his words.

"If you're busy, I won't bother you, so you don't have to talk like that." Different from his lips and his heart. Although his lips continued to mutter if everything would be fine, but the tears that were flowing down the river already represented his heart that felt like it had been pierced by a dagger, sore.

Riana then broke herself down, she sobbed in desolation. Trying to understand his lover but it turns out that only he who understands it is not enough. I do not know what the man was thinking, so that it could say such a thing hurt his feelings and heart.

"You're evil Rai..." In her tears, Riana cursed Raihan repeatedly. All this time he tried to be a good lover, not much demanding even though his attitude seemed spoiled. But the men easily said the word break when their relationship was fine and began to take it to a more serious level, namely getting engaged.

***

For the past two weeks, Riana has been trying to dial Raihan's phone number again. He hopes that Raihan can be contacted after he complies with the man not to disturb him. But Raihan's phone number remains out of reach. Riana did not give up, she also tried to call the number that Raihan last used to contact her and the results remained the same. Only the voice of the operator was heard across the street.

"Why are you Rai?" Yeah, Riana needs an explanation. If Raihan does ask them to break first, of course he wants a clarity. There could be no reason to make Raihan say that.

"R...." Sella who came over patted Riana on the shoulder. He was surprised to find Riana's eyes condensing and ready to be shed. "Are you okay, Ri?"

"I'm not okay, Sell." And Riana's defense collapsed, the woman was unable to say alright as before. Because in reality his heart is not okay.

"Crying until satisfied Ri. After that, don't think about Raihan anymore. He's too stupid for a woman as good as you."

"But Sell." Riana's voice hiccups in Sella's arms. "I don't know what's wrong, he should have said I was wrong. Do not suddenly disappear after saying the word break. It's not that the break doesn't make any difference as if it broke up. Does he think our relationship so far has been a joke?" And Riana opened her heart. Because right now only Sella is willing to listen to his outpouring of heart. Previously Riana had told her problems to her two friends and their reactions were certainly surprised. They also want to meet to cheer Riana up on the weekend.

Sella's hand stretched up and down to rub Riana's back which shook from sobbing. He let this woman who had been his friend for a year spill her sense of tightness and sadness on him. Of course he didn't mind one bit.

"You can definitely start Ri," he mumbled. What Riana felt, Sella also felt the pain that was being felt by her friend. Moreover, their relationship has been running for 7 years. Of course, the figure of Raihan has been something valuable for Riana, so his presence is like a habit to welcome the days of his friend.

But already a month had passed, there was really no news from Raihan. The man never showed the trunk of his nose in front of Riana. Even Riana had visited the West building where Raihan was in the division. But what he heard was that Raihan was out of town for a week.

"So you seriously really want to break Rai?" Riana was only able to see a portrait of herself with Raihan. At least it was the only way to get rid of his longing for the man.

"What is the truth said with Dinara Rai, if you must have cheated?" A week ago, the two friends visited her apartment. And their arrival certainly made Riana not feel lonely. They can provide entertainment for Riana with a dime joke of course.

And Dinara said that if the man who broke off the relationship unilaterally, they must have cheated on him. Now the words were buzzing in his brain, before he had thought so, but he tried to shake it off and still believed in Raihan's love for him.

But no matter how he remained confident, the suspicion was simply imprinted in his heart. Justifying one belief that Raihan had cheated on her was so heartbreaking to hurt her.

Riana then decided to open her social media that she had not opened for a long time. Because Raihan is not so fond if Riana is active in cyberspace. He who at that time became a submissive lover, only nodded obediently like a doll that must obey every speech Raihan.

No. gabe. Not anymore. He also has to find out about Raihan. Her feelings say that Raihan is really in a relationship with another woman. Moreover, his attitude that had suddenly disappeared was already enough to represent his suspicion.

Riana opened her laptop, she opened social media that she had deactivated. One by one he tried to type Raihan's name in the search list. His eyes rolled when he did not find Raihan's name, he only saw one friend Raihan's name when they were in college and currently one company with them and of course one division with Raihan.

Riana started looking at a profile account named Aldy Sapororo. Instantly his eyes were fully rounded when he saw one tag that led to an account called NewR_raihan. His hand suddenly shook violently when he saw the photo of the account like the face of Raihan, his fiancee. And what made his heart suddenly stop beating when he found that the profile photo was really Raihan who was embracing a beautiful woman and the status of the man dating Anggun Shelimar.

Who is that woman, Rai?
