Old Love Hasn't (Surely) Returned
CLB(t)K 19

"WHAT?" Annisa screamed in surprise when she heard Reenan's words.

Everyone in the room looked at Annisa in a confused light.

"Pak Reenan can we talk?" bargain Annisa.

"Later we'll talk, but let me ask your parents' permission to approach you first" Reenan said calmly.

Reenan and Hendra finally speak for one eye in the kitchen of Annisa's parents' house, as a father Hendra does not want his daughter again to be hurt by another man, the, even as Hendra's father did not dare to make his children cry because his son's tears made his heart throb pain.

Hendra really did not want his son to return to feel the heartache of a man, Hendra gave advice and warning to Reenan if he wanted to approach Annisa.

"I will try my hardest to make Annisa happy" Reenan said firmly.

Damar and Annisa were on the porch to talk together.

"Is my chance really over?" asked Damar in a soft tone.

"I can't go back to my sister, my past story has been buried deeply, I don't want to remember let alone repeat it again"

"But I'm really sorry about divorcing you, at least give me one chance to prove it all" Damar's desperate plea.

"Sorry brother, if it's still there I'll definitely give a chance to big brother, but at this time I don't have any feelings for my brother Damar,"

"One time, I promise I won't let you down again!"

"No, sister, I want to open a new page with a new person who can appreciate me more" Annisa said.

Damar continued to plead for his return and Annisa was unanimous in the decision not to return to Damar.

Until suddenly the voice from behind Annisa interrupted their conversation.

"It's early morning, I'll be home" Reenan said as he approached Annisa and Damar.

"Pak Reenan wants to go home? But I want to discuss something with you!" annisa.

"Tomorrow morning I'll pick you up at 9 am,"

"Brother will be here?"

Reenan nodded "I've got your father's permission, just to talk about me and you tomorrow" Reenan said with his eyes fixed on Damar who was also staring at him.

"And for you, I hope we're just co-workers not rivals for love" Reenan said right in front of Damar.

"We do not know how the results will be, is not the human heart very easy to waver? Good night!" damar ends his conversation with Reenan and rushes away from Annisa's house.

"Suck!" reenan said without a sound.

"Pak Reenan didn't come home?" ask Annisa.

"I'll be home now, at 9 I'll pick you up" Reenan said as he passed to his car to return home.

Annisa went inside the house and went straight to her room, Annisa jumped in shock when she saw her father was already sitting on his dresser chair.

"Dad! Just surprised!" annisa approached her father.

"Dad is sad right now" Hendra told his daughter.

"Sadly why yeah?"

"Do you have to let go again? I'm so afraid you're gonna get back to being hurt like you used to? But I also can't possibly leave you alone in your old age, there should be someone to replace the role of father and mother someday, but I'm afraid if you go back to grieving because of men" Hendra held back the tears that had pooled in his eyes, remembering that his daughter was crying again because men made her heart very sick.

But he also cannot be selfish as a parent, however he and his wife will definitely leave their children someday, and the task of parents must be able to pair their children with the right people for the future of their children.

"Dad," call Annisa "Dad know not if Annisa's too bad for you? Annisa even wants to have a husband as good and responsible as father, father is Annisa's first love that can not be replaced by anyone!" annisa.

"But father, Annisa's past mistakes cannot be a yardstick about all the men Annisa will choose later, Annisa is sure that this time Annisa will not be wrong in choosing a life companion, father take it easy, this time Annisa sure will be happy with the choice of Annisa later" Annisa hugged and stroked her father's back that vibrated crying on his shoulder.

Annisa does not know if the father turned out to have such a fear in the future of his life, Annisa also did not know that the wound her father felt might be comparable to what he felt before so that the father could cry like this in his arms.

"I'll work on it" Annisa replied with a gentle smile looking at her father.

"Sleep, it's too late not to be too bad for his morning prayers!" hendra got out of her chair and came out of her daughter's room.

"Pak Reenan, if this were just your game I'd really haunt you later!" annisa said to herself.

...****************...

Exactly at 9 am Reenan already showed the trunk of his nose in front of the door of the house Annisa.

"Are you ready?" reenan asked when he saw Annia opening the door for him.

"Go in sir!" take Annisa to Reenan.

Reenan stepped into the living room of Annisa's house.

"Where are your mom and dad?" reenan asked when he saw Annisa's house was deserted.

"They were all going to my mother's sister's house, so there was only me at home" Annisa said.

"Where are we going, sir?" ask Annisa again.

"Can't you call me sir or dad when we're outside? I feel so old,"

"Why call it what? It's impossible if I call my father's name, it's not polite" Annisa said with a smile.

"Whatever, but don't call dad!"

"Well, where are we going?"

Reenan was a success with the call of Annisa just now.

"What's? Om? You think I'm your uncle huh?" Reenan was getting annoyed at hearing a new nickname for her.

"It's so fussy, just say what I'd call it!"

"Reenan alone, do not add any frills!" reenan was upset.

"OK Reenan we're leaving now?"

"Come on!"

The two of them then go to where Reenan wants, Annisa just according to when Reenan will take her to the playground. There is no harm in a first date on the playground, maybe it will leave a different impression.

Almost 1 hour they just arrived at the place to go, understand Sunday the streets must be jammed, Reenan alone did not think that it would be jammed on this Sunday.

"Why is his face like that?" asked Annisa when she saw Reenan's face was so sour.

"I didn't expect that, I was afraid you were exhausted on the road" Reenan said honestly.

"Just relax, I don't feel tired, now come on in!" Annisa walks ahead of Reenan.

Upon arriving at the entrance, Reenan pulls back the hand of Annisa who will pay for the ticket for the two of them.

"Don't fuck around, stand behind me!" Reenan then handed over the money to pay for his entrance ticket.

When they got the entrance ticket they walked together into the playground.

"Don't like it, I don't like it!" said Reenan.

Annisa just smiled hearing Reenan's words.

"Your price will not fall in my eyes just because I paid for something, I also have money, although not as much as you but I do not want to burden you, we haven't had any relationship yet so you don't have to bear it all, let it be if I want to pay for something I'd be happy if you let me do it" Annisa said.

Reenan was quite astonished by the sentence of the woman in front of him, if usually the woman who approached him must also aim for the contents of his wallet but the woman this time was different, completely different according to Reenan.

And at that moment Reenan knew that his decision to choose Annisa was the most appropriate choice in his life.
