MY NAME IS RIO...
D E J A V U

I took a selfie against the background of the Eifel Tower that was towering behind me. I remember the last days when Eva and I were leaving Paris. I took pictures at the same spot with the same spot. The difference is only without Eva beside me. I smiled at the photo of my selfie.

"I missed you so, Sweetheart!"

4 More days I will soon leave Paris after 2 years I continue my school in the city nicknamed City of Light.

As soon as I arrived in the homeland, I headed straight to the place where Eva was buried. I haven't visited his grave in 2 years. I cleaned the weeds that grew around his grave. When I'm leaving, Mr. Kadek I'll give you the task of cleaning up Eva's grave. That day apparently Mr. Kadek will clean the grave of my wife. He was surprised to see me there that afternoon.

"Mas Rio, when is it coming?" he said while shaking my hand.

I smiled at him.

"I just arrived, sir. From the airport I came straight here first." I answered while continuing to pluck the grass that grew around Eva's headstone.

"Oooow. Just go home with me, Mom. It just so happened that mom came too!" Answer with a thick Balinese accent.

"Yes sir. I want to pray first!" I said while taking out a small book from my shirt pocket.

Mr. Kadek left me when I started reading Yasin's letter. After I finished sending my prayers, I left the cemetery.

Mama Wanda greeted me in front of the Villa gate.

"Are you alone, Rio? Mama thinks you brought French bule!" Canda mama Wanda while holding my hand to get into the villa. I laughed when I heard Mom's joke. We were sitting in the gazebo near the pool, Mama Wanda called Mr. Kadek to bring us some food.

"So you went straight to the funeral after the airport?" Ask your mom after Kadek left us.

"Mama may be tomorrow, Rii! said mama again.

"Tompe me anther, Ma!" Reply again. Mama nodded her head.

"Where, you don't have a boyfriend anymore?" Ask your mom while smiling. I glanced at my mother while shaking my head.

"Yet, Ma. I haven't met a girl like Eva!" I answered while smiling at my mother. He then told me the beginning of Eva breaking into his closet when she wanted to see me first. I laughed listening to the story.

"Newly that mama saw Eva confused to choose clothes for a date, it turns out you are a special guy, Rio!" My mother remembered the incident. Then my mother asked me about my plans after returning to Indonesia. I was planning to meet some investors I knew when I continued my studies in Paris. Including meeting Tania who invited me to join her Resort again. Mama Wanda seemed happy to hear my explanation. Shortly afterwards, Mr. Kadek accompanied by a woman came in carrying food. We both ate while chatting. Then after that I left Mama Wanda to rest. I walked to Villaku which is right next to Villa mama Wanda. The villa looked clean and well-maintained after 2 years. Mr. Kadek really took good care of it.

That morning my rented motorbike was delivered to Villa, after checking the equipment, the bike was handed over to Mr. Kadek.

"Coach rental motor, mas? The car's not on a cake? Nice car time is so just heated up!" Sindir Pak Kadek while cleaning the dust attached to the Rubicon Car that I used to drive around with Eva. The car was never used for a long time, all this time only heated by Mr. Kadek.

"Klo's all alone, the mistress, sir. Mending motorbike, not jammed!" I answered while returning to the Villa.

That afternoon I rode my rented motorbike. I walked around the bustling Petitenget area at that time. After a short stop at my coffee shop. Then I slid towards Tania's office in the Legian area. Tania offered me another contract of cooperation. Tania and her colleagues just opened a new resort in the Ubud area. I promise to announce it soon. After I finished meeting Tania, I stopped by the mall in Kuta area. To buy Tshirts and pants for Jogging. I stopped by to enjoy Sunset at Cafe Sardinia, where Eva and I spent the afternoon. I ordered pizza with a cold beer. I daydreamed while looking at the people passing by. I was enjoying my pizzas while looking towards the beach, the sun had already set by almost half. Group of 5 girls and 1 guy. They sit next to me. The guy whose style was weakly gleaming asked me for permission.

"Bang, excuse me. Eike pinch his chair yes!" said the guy while smiling flirtatiously at me with a tone that made me amused to see it. I nodded while smiling at him.

"Crazy grandma, bule here dabbling. Make eike so suck!" He said to his friend as he lifted the chair from the front of my desk. My light brown hair and reddish-white skin make me often mistaken by people who have just met me for the first time.

"Hello, I'm Lusi. Can I join you?" said a girl in the group asking me to chat.

"Yeah, Off Course miss Lusi! Sit down, Please!" I answered while letting the sweet girl sit down. He shook my hand.

"I'm sorry. I want to practice my english language!" He said in a stammer.

"Yes. Ask her her name who she is!" Said the guy again.

"What is your name?" Ask Lusi again.

"My name is Rio Ramirez!" I smiled as I opened my sunglasses.

"Pake open the glasses again nih bule, wear glasses aja already handsome let alone opened. Like want to pengsannn!" The clumsy guy chirped with a funny tone greeted with the laughter of his friends. I also laughed when I heard that guy.

"Ask what else, Chocolate?" lusi said again to the goulashy guy.

"Rio?!" Suddenly a female voice called out to me from behind Susi.

I went to the place where the sound came from.

"Cresa?!" I answered and shook his hand. Cresa looked at me from head to toe. Cresa sat down next to Lusi. The clumsy Susi then says goodbye to me to return to her desk.

"Excuse me, mister. I go back to my table now. Nice to meet you, Mr. Rio!" he said before leaving his chair. Cresa held back her laughter while closing her mouth.

"Yeah, Nice to meet you too!" I answered while smiling at them.

"When are you there, Cresa?" I asked Cresa.

"So morning, Rio. How long have we not seen you? 3 Years, Rii? Cresa asked me while trying to remember the last time we met.

"4 years, Cresa!" I answered briefly with a smile.

"Hahhahahaha, Turns out made in local too, Lus. Made in local KW super!" chirp that goulash guy again at his friends.

"You alone? Where's your wife, Rii?" Ask Cresa again. I'm just smiling. The beautiful face of Eva at that time.

"Lu's a merit isn't she the same? You're just like he's no problem, right, Rii? Asked Cresa with a suspicious tone. I waved my hand at the waiter. I ordered beer and orange juice for Cresa. I'm the pizza I still have left. I'm still silent about not answering Cresa's question.

"Eva is dead, Cres. 4 years ago she died of Leukemia."

I lit a cigarette while looking at the dark beach.

"Sori, Rii's. I'm in mourning!" He answered with a sad face. I just smiled wryly as I ruffled my hair with my hands. Then we chatted about the activities we did the last 2 years. It turns out that Cresa successfully did business in beauty care clinics and she already has 8 branches including in Bali. He goes around once every 1 month to his branch office.

"I'm glad you're better than when we first met, Cresa," I said, peeking at my watch. It was 8pm without feeling.

"Are you leaving, Rii?" Ask when I see my watch.

"Guide me to dinner, yuk Cres!" I said as I stood up and paid the bill to the waiter. He nodded his head while smiling sweetly.

"Well, how's this change?" the waiter said to me.

"Make it!" I said as I walked out of the cafe with Cresa.
