MY NAME IS RIO...
And Happen Again...

Unfeelably. That day I was the last day of school, mom came home after taking my report. My report is still very satisfying mama, I am still ranked 2nd in class. I changed my clothes in the school toilet. I'm gonna meet Eva at a mall. I intend to take Eva on vacation to Bali. Eva and I have met quite rarely lately due to Eva's busy work on continuing her late father's business and me preparing for the class exam. Less than 1 hour from my promise to meet Eva. I intend to walk around the mall to just wash my eyes. And I saw a black hoodie discounted at the men's clothing store. I bought that hoodie and put it on. I then circled the mall while looking at the discounted items. Suddenly I saw Eva, she was 1 floor below me. I intend to surprise him. I put on the hoodie and started running down the escalator. Opposite me was Eva who was talking to a manly man of medium stature whose makeup was very dapper. The guy seemed to be chasing after her and trying to hold Eva's hand.

"Who is that guy?" with a hot heart. Eva and the guy didn't realize I was following them. They then turned to the hallway leading to the toilet. As I was about to turn into that hallway, I saw a scene that made my heart grow hotter.

Eva was kissing that guy!

Eva leaned against the wall with her hand against the guy's neck. I was silent in the middle of the hallway, the two of them were still kissing. I fell silent while clenching my fists. The two of them apparently finally realized that someone was paying attention to their activities. When they looked at me, I pulled my hood back.

"RIOOOOO!!! WAIT RIO!!!

EVA SHOUTED CALLING MY NAME. I turned around and ran straight towards the elevator. I went down in the basement mall, and then I walked into my motor park with emotion.

I took my bike home. I packed my clothes and put them in a small suitcase. I asked permission to my mother by lying to follow friends to Bali. I went to Bali, but not with my friends.

"Cock suddenly you go, Rii?" ask mama.

"Yes ma. Robin suddenly said it too. So the sudden go gini. Sorry, Ma!" I kissed my mom's cheeks and hands.

"Later money transfer mama yes. You still have a grip, right?" Mom asked while driving me out of the house. "Safe, ma! Rio left first. I was waiting for friends in the airport," I said as I rushed into the online taxi that was waiting for me. When the taxi that I was riding to the T-junction of my house I saw Eva's red Sport Car speeding veered towards my home road. "Slow down, sir. My flight was still a long time away," I told the driver, nodding. Shortly after, my phone shook. I opened my vibrating phone, it was my mom's phone.

"Yes. Halo ma," I replied.

"Rio, Eva just came here looking for you, mama said you want to go to Bali with your friends. Didn't you talk to him if you wanted to go to Bali?" ask mama.

"No ma, but let's meet at the airport. Later there I just talk about Eva," I replied and ended the phone call. I saw a 50x missed call from Eva to my phone. Hot hearts. But it wasn't as sad as the time I lost Cresa. Maybe because I'm used to that. I smoke the driver, I open the glass. Eva's Sport Car sped ahead of the old online taxi. I daydream again while smoking cigarette smoke.

I got off at the airport arrival terminal. Because at the departure terminal I saw Eva pacing there looking for me. After buying a plane ticket to Bali. I went into a coffee shop and ordered coffee. Back my phone vibrated. I answered the phone from Eva.

Eva(E): Rio, you've been listening to my explanation. It's not all like you saw!

Rio(R): I'm listening to you.

E: I have been to your house, said your mother to Bali. Where are you now? I chased you to the airport you don't exist.

R: You just went home. Thanks for Everything, Eva.

E: Rio, let me explain everything first!(huuuuuhuu)

R: There's nothing you need to explain about that. What I see is what I get. I make it so simple for you, Va!

E: I want to meet you. I have to explain everything to you. Please give me a chance to explain it!(Huuuuhuuu)

R: I'll meet you after I get back from Bali!

E: I'm really love you!

R: Take care, Eva. Take a rest u looked so tired. Yea!

I ended the call and I immediately turned off my phone. My departure is still 1.5 hours away. I continued to finish my coffee.

...----------------...

Siska's confused. Eva cried as she opened the door to her room.

"AH!!! Because what's Rio mutusin you?" siska asked while stroking Eva's back.

"She saw me and Tino kissing earlier, Sis!" said Eva while hugging Siska.

"WHATTT??? LU KISSING WITH TINO??? AND RIO CLAY THAT?!!!" siska said with shock and anger.

"Yes, but it's not what he thought, Sis. I was forced by Tino. It's just kissing, anyway" Eva replied, crying over her face.

"Gue doesn't want to hear your reasons for Va" said Siska who was also angry at his best friend.

"Gue will apologize to Rio, saying whatever I want. Help me Sis," Eva said again.

"Let's go to Vina, only she can help you. And may he help you" said Siska.

......................

Vina smiled as she looked at Eva and Siska. Siska hugged Vina. They met at a cafe near where Vina worked.

"What's up? Tumben, where's my cousin?" asked Vina who was astonished at that moment not to see Rio.

Eva explains why she met Vina back then and what they meant at the time. Vina was immediately enraged when she heard Eva's explanation.

"Udah slese your story? WITH SELESE?!!!" Shouted Vina with a glare at Eva.

"Good as he mutusin you. Weigh him up yesterday again. I support her actions mutusin you, Va!

Sori we are both girls. I was also once abandoned. But you were left out because of your silliness. It's got him out. Cassian she is, Va. She just recovered, then met you at the Club. I invited him there that night!" crying Vina.

"Recovered recently??? What's Roy sick, Vin?" asked Eva who was crying too.

Vina then opened her mobile photo gallery. And show me a picture of a skinny, dry guy. Rio's appearance in the photo was unlike his current appearance.

"Lu look at those photos, Va. That's the picture I took for Cresa. Cresa who made Rio 3 months more alive like an undead. No appetite. Rarely shower. It's hard to sleep at night and always a nightmare. But, can you see the change now? When he came back like before. YOU HURT HIM AGAIN, VA!!! You know how many girls he took home? How many girls have seduced him on your same road? LOTS OF VA! And I'm the one who kicked them all! Because Rio told me to! He never cared about them all. All he cares about is you!!! I am surprised by Rio. Why isn't he a bastard! Let him not feel the pain like this continue!" vina then stood up from the table and left Eva and Siska.

Eva limp, answered already her questions all this time, the questions that Rio never answered. So what Rio had been hiding all along was a pain that perhaps everyone could tell but only he could feel that pain.

That was because he could not share even if it was just sharing stories with the people closest to him.

Siska drives Eva's car, Eva asks to be delivered to Wanda's mom's house. Siska drove without speaking after hearing Vina's story earlier. Eva felt heartbroken when she saw the photo that Fina had shown earlier. The picture of Rio who was flat unkempt made his heart even sadder. Eva recalled the past 6 months Rio always accompanied her. She never complains of being tired when Eva needs it. Though Rio morning had to go to school, afternoon Taekwondo practice, and the afternoon-night time was only for Eva. Eva felt really guilty at the time. Rio who was always sweet and cheerful, spoiled her even though she was younger than him, and could always turn his emotions into laughter with his jokes. Eva recalls that 1 month ago Rio asked her permission to meet rarely to prepare for her class exam. Making Eva rarely meet Rio and Tino who is his ex-girlfriend and also his office colleagues again come to tease him. Actually all Tino's temptations have been brushed aside by Eva. This was all because Tino pulled and forced her in the hallway of the mall earlier and immediately kissed her. And Rio saw the incident then disappeared.

Mama Wanda just kept quiet. He hears all of Eva's stories patiently. When Eva told me about the angry Vina. Mama Wanda's eyes look teary, she remembered the first time Rio came to the house. He was immediately impressed by the polite attitude of the young man.No parent will refuse his son to be courted Rio. Mama Wanda hugged the crying Eva.

"You gota let him go Eva" Eva cried even more at her mother's words. Eva pulled out her phone. He tried to call Rio. Rio's phone is off. Eva stood up and said goodbye to her mother. Eva has lived in a different house with her mother since her father and mother divorced. Eva lives with her papa. Eva checks IG Rio.It turns out there are 2 new posts. Posted 2 hours ago,

Rio posted as he sings at a cafe in Jimbaran area.

'Always Be My Baby' is a song she used to sing. Rio sings in a cafe featuring live music. His hoarse and heavy voice was perfectly suited to singing that song. Eva was crying seeing that.

"Sis please send me to Bali tomorrow. Please help me find him!" Said Eva with teary eyes holding back her tears that were about to drip.

Waiting for comments, follow and like him yes Gess.Thanks a lot for you who have stopped by!
