MISS THE NO MAN
What are You Hiding?

Kirania laid her body on the springbed of the hotel room that she had four nights in. He is still looking for a boarding place that he will occupy later, maybe if he meets a holiday later he can just survey to the place he will choose.

Ddrrtt

Kirania immediately grabbed her phone when she heard an incoming call. Kirania noticed a foreign number that was not stored in her phone contacts. He just looked at her not intending to lift her up until the call stopped. But within seconds the phone went off again, still from the same number. Finally, Kirania decided to pick up the phone call.

" Assalamualaikum .." said later.

" Waalaikumsalam, you haven't slept yet, have you?"

Kirania sighed when she heard the voice from behind the phone that turned out to belong to Gilang.

" Not yet, Brother."

" I'm in the lobby, can you come down?"

" Sis Gilang still here?"

" Yes, I should have come home this afternoon to Cirebon, but when I found out you were here, I could have gone back to Cirebon." Gilang chuckled as he said that sentence.

" But I want to rest, brother." Kirania is still trying to escape.

" Come, Ran. It's only eight o'clock, but we'll meet here. I want to talk to you. How long will you keep avoiding me?"

Kirania took a slow breath. " Okay, but it can't take long, brother." Kirania decides to meet Gilang. It felt unfair to the man as well if he always avoided her.

" Okay, I promise." Gilang could not hide his happiness when saying that sentence.

Finally, Cyria rose from her lying down. She tidied her hair and wore a hoodie, to cover her sleeveless nightgown.

" Neo ..." Gilang immediately greeted Kirania when he saw the woman until the hotel lobby.

" We go to the resto on the rooftop, yuk." Gilang immediately pulled Kirania's hand making Kirania widen her eyes.

" Br ..." Kirania immediately pulled her hand out of Gilang's hand.

" Oh, sorry, Ran. I'm too excited ..." Gilang chuckles. " Come ..." Gilang also stepped into the elevator that would take him to the hotel rooftop, and Kirania was just trailing behind him.

" What do you want to eat, Ran?" ask Gilang when they arrived at the restaurant above the hotel.

" I'm not hungry, brother. Brother Gilang if you want a message, please order it," refused Kirania.

" No good dong, when I eat alone. Or do you want me to bribe you?" goda Gilang made Kirania meet instantly.

" I'm kidding, Ran. If I dare to do that, you run from me. It's been hard to persuade you to meet, it's not possible until I make a mess," said Gilang later.

Kirania only smiled faintly in response to Gilang's sentence which the man thought was just a joke.

" I'd like to order Red Velvet with a capuccino latte, would you like one too?" Gilang.

Kirania finally nodded slowly to approve what Gilang ordered. " I just drink mineral water."

Finally Gilang also asked the waiter to record the order.

" It seems I have to record the day and date of this day in history, deh."

Kirania immediately frowned when she heard Gilang's words. " What's wrong, brother?"

" Because after so long, I finally managed to also invite you to sit down together to chat like this. You know I've been wanting this for a long time, but you're hard to approach."

" Why did Gilang never stop expecting me?" Kirania realized since Cirebon too she always avoided if Gilang came to his house, there was only a reason that he gave. Sometimes he ignored the man hoping Gilang was discouraged and stopped chasing him, but it did not affect Gilang's desire to continue approaching Kirania.

" Because I always felt I still had the chance to have you, hoping that your heart would melt."

" Did Gilang never feel tired? Until when will you keep expecting me?" kirania asked looking at the face of the handsome man who used to be an idol when they were still in gray white uniform.

" Until I don't have a chance, when you've found happiness with another man. That's when I might give up."

Kirania's heart melos at once hearing Gilang's words. He felt very guilty, he knew that Gilang was a good man whom he had always ignored.

" If Big Brother loves me, but I choose to marry another man as my life partner, but I can't get happiness with my marriage, what will Big Brother do?"

Gilang stared in surprise at Kirania's question. " I will support whatever is best for you, including parting with a man who can't give you happiness. After that I will take the task of giving happiness to you."

" Is Brother Gilang not afraid of being accused of being the usurper of people's wives?"

Gilang chuckles. " If we seize the happiness of others, may we think so. Logically, whose happiness am I seizing? You are not happy with your marriage, meaning your companion is equally unhappy. Maybe because you guys are betrothed, I don't know .. The name of that feeling of love can't be forced, Ran." Gilang paused his speech. " As for how I feel about you, I can't force you to return my feelings, I'm just trying to get your heart down and accept my love." Gilang then looked towards Kirania's beautiful eyes.

" Ran, I know from Aunt Saras, if you are not currently close to any man. If you want to give me a chance, I promise I'll make you happy for life, Ran." Gilang then clasped Kirania's hand, Kirania wanted to pull over but Gilang blocked her. " I'll give you time to think carefully about my request."

" Sister, I ...."

" Not to be answered now, just think carefully about my request earlier. When we are both adults, it is time we both think about marriage. There's no way we're forever going to keep going like this, right?"

Kirania took a breath, her eyes still fixed on her hand which was still in Gilang's grasp. It seems that man is indeed unwilling to let go.

Meanwhile, a man entered a luxury house building that he rarely visited, if there was no need, or there was a sudden call like this from his mother.

" Dirga, have you come?" asked Mama Dirga when Dirga opened the door of her mother's room.

" What did Mom call me here?" Dirga replied to her mother's question with a question.

" Come here ..." Mama Dirga asked Dirga to sit on a large sofa in her bedroom.

" What's up, Ma?"

" Dirga, you're Mama's only focus, Mama doesn't want you to go the wrong way, son." Mama Dirga rubbed Dirga's burly arms.

" Mistaken way? What do you mean by the wrong way?" Dirga squinted his eyes.

" Why do you still insist on divorce from Nadia? Didn't Mama ask you to marry her and learn to love Nadia again?"

" Ma, didn't you know from the beginning that I couldn't love Nadia? Why do you always talk about this again?" Dirga felt upset turned out to be the same problem that has always been a debate between him and his mother.

" Is it because your ex's presence that your desire to divorce Nadia is getting stronger?"

Dirga frowned. " Did Nadia tell Mama that?"

Mama Dirga nodded her head." Then do you want to go back to that woman of your past? Did you forget that he left you even though you loved him?"

Dirga squinted his eyes at the words of his mother. She remembered Nadia had said the same sentence with her mother.

" I never told anyone why I broke up with Kirania. Then why do Mama and Nadia know that we broke up because Kirania left me? Is there something I've been missing and you've been hiding all this time?" Dirga looked suspiciously at the middle-aged woman who had given birth to him.
