Love For My Sad Boy
Chapter 62. First Day Without Silva

Arkan opened his eyes and turned to the side. It felt lonely last night without Silva present. Yesterday, after driving Silva home to his parents, Arkan went straight to the cafe to take care of his resignation letter and worked for the last time. He worked from morning until night. Although Regan and other employees suggested that Arkan go home, he did not comply. Arkan continued to work tirelessly. Actually it was an attempt of her to not be reminded of Silva. He wanted to forget his sadness for a moment by working.

He had asked permission from his father who said he had learned to do business from Monday and that he was allowed to work one last time at the cafe.

Many people regretted that they stopped working. Arkan accidentally does not tell everyone including Regan that he quit because he was forced by his father and his future father-in-law began to learn to manage the company. They only know that Arkan is a teenager who is soon to graduate school and is in need of fees for his exams and graduation later. Because that's exactly what Arkan says everyone asks about his reasons for taking a part-time job.

Especially Regan and Flowers. They're unceasingly holding Arkan back. Even Bunga willing to come to the cafe at eleven o'clock in the evening to withstand his departure. The girl cries and expresses her feelings to Arkan. But how else, Arkan said that he already has a prospective wife who is betrothed by their parents.

The flashback

The flower cries while clasping Arkan-holding his departure.

"Sister, I beg you... Brother can handle the relationship between sister and girl, but please don't stop working here, yes. I'd be lonely if there wasn't Arkan. Come, Brother. Says you're gonna need some money for the end of the school year?"

Arkan let go of the Flower's hand grips slowly. He smiled faintly in response to the statement of Flowers' feelings.

"Thank you for loving me. But sorry, I can't react to your feelings. We're getting married in a week, so I quit my job here. Sorry for lying to you guys," Arkan replied staring at Flowers then Regan who was standing behind Flowers-watching their drama.

The flower seemed shocked by the confession Arkan had said. "J-so, all this time Brother Arkan lied about the reason for Brother's work for school fees?"

Arkan nodded for sure. "Yes, I don't actually need money for school fees. But I need money for marriage. So sorry, if you have the same feelings as me. I don't know what to do. Obviously, I can't react to your feelings. Sorry." which."

Slowly Arkan turned around and left the Flower that broke his cry and called out Arkan's name to return. Bunga will also chase Arkan, but is held back by Regan. The man hugged the vibrating body of the Flower and stroked his head - trying to calm the sister.

"Udah, don't cry. He does not pantes make your tears wasted. Instead of the Arkan nangisin, mending you look for another. There are still a lot of guys who are better than Arkan. Yes, do not cry," said Regan gently.

"But, a, I p-inventnya k-kak Arkan, Bang.." refute Flowers with a faltering because of the broken cry.

Regan sighed then was surprised because the Flower suddenly fainted. The body of the Flower squeezed in his arms. Regan frantically patted Flowers cheeks to open her eyes again. However, the flower was not conscious. Finally, he carried the Flower to the car. Then he immediately drove to the hospital so that Bunga could be handled by the medical team. Regan believes that flowers like this must be caused by his disease.

On the way, Regan clenches her hand, annoyed at Arkan. He promises to avenge what Arkan has done to his sister.

Flashback off

He is currently preparing to go to school. After putting on the uniform, he cooked fried rice that Silva had taught him how to make yesterday, before going to Silva's parents' house.

Arkan smiled on the sidelines of his cooking activities as he recalled how it was worth Silva apologizing to his parents. They forgave Silva and again accepted Silva at their home. Hanum too. He was the most broken in tears because given his cruelty to expel Silva in the hospital at that time when he found out Silva was pregnant.

Many times Hanum apologized while hugging Silva. The man felt very guilty for his daughter. Or maybe feel lonely because Silva is not in their home.

"Huh, you fucking bitch!" cibir Arkan was slow at the time. He was careless to see how Hanum cried when apologizing to Silva. As if he had lost his pride in front of his family. But Arkan salutes Hanum who dares to admit his mistake. Her future father-in-law was not ashamed to admit wrong and apologized to his son. He promised to imitate the good behavior of his father-in-law. Ah, the future-in-law means, hehe.

Now, the fried rice is ripe. Arkan scooped a little fried rice that was still in the frying pan and then tasted it. Suddenly his face turned strange.

"That's why it tastes so salty!" arkan squealed his tongue and drank as much water.

Arkan clucked while watching his fried rice. "When the recipe and how to make it is the same as what was taught by Silva. But how to try to make your own, it tastes so salty huh?"

A moment of thought, Arkan glanced at the wall clock that turned out to have shown seven hours less than ten minutes. There is still plenty of time if he wants to be late. But this time Arkan did not want to be late because he had not had breakfast. It could be dangerous if he fainted while running a sentence for arriving late.

"I'm going to go to lunch at school" Arkan dropped out and took his bag in his room and went to school.

***

In one of the hospital's outpatient rooms, a girl lay weakly with an intravenous needle on one of her hands and a breathing apparatus that covered her nose and mouth. The girl was Flower, she was declared into a coma after her illness relapsed that night.

Next to her sat Regan holding the hand of the flower free from the infusion needle. He has been with Bunga since that night. Even the cafe closed temporarily. Because he hasn't been able to leave the Flower in a long time. After Bunga improves, he will return to take care of his cafe.

The back of that hand. Both of his eyes continued to stare at the flower's eyelids that were always closed. I hope both will be open. However, only wishful thinking had no chance of materializing. This is all he put off to Arkan who has made his sister like this. He has hated Arkan since that night.  

"The promise won't make Arkan happy, Dek."

...Seriate......
