Our Love Is Not Over

Our Love Is Not Over
The Part 55


Raisa arrives at her house, and Mama Ola is still there. She was initially surprised because Mama Ola who had not returned home, let alone the aura released by Mama Ola was a little creepy.


"Why haven't you come home yet?"


"Wait for you to come home, Mama can't bear the twins just the two at home. Especially if they sleep, the duh that is in your mind, just afraid there is a thief or kidnapper into the house."


"No, Ma, this area is safe. I'm used to it. They're used to me living."


"But just keep worrying, Ca. You live with Mama, right? Yea?"


Raisa shakes.


"What people say if ex-husband and wife still live in the house, it's not good Ma."


"Well, you get married again" suggested Mama Ola.


"Marriage is not easy Ma. I've failed once. I don't want to fail a second time either."


Mama Ola was immediately saddened to hear the words of Raisa.


"Do you not trust Edgar anymore?"


"Believe me, I believe that Edgar would be a good papi. But I can't believe it anymore, that Edgar won't let me down a second time."


"But you're gonna give Edgar a chance, right?" asked Mama Ola who still desperately wants Raisa to be her daughter-in-law again.


"Come Ma. I haven't thought about it."


Mama Ola took a long breath. She rested her head on the sofa as Raisa went inside her room to clean her body.


"It is as hard as a rock. But even if the stone continues to be overwritten by water, it will be destroyed in the end. May you too, Ca. Our family would not be complete without you. The beautiful gem we found in the mud pit."

Edgar had been looking here and there for investors to help him, but he only got a little. He's really dizzy now. Even so dizzy, he missed his lunch hour on that day.


Until then, the door of the room was broken through by Levi. He was alone, because Bimo was still upset at Edgar.


"If you're in trouble, look for me or Bimo. Are we not your friends? If you ask for help, I'll be happy to help."


"Lev," call Edgar with a slight bow.


"Whatever decision you've made, I'm sure it's for the best, Gar. It must also be very difficult" Levi said, patting Edgar on the shoulder.


Levi glanced at Edgar's desk and looked at the cooperation proposal.


"I'll take it and I'll read it at home."


Edgar really didn't expect Levi would help him. Though he thought Levi would side with Bimo who was more supportive of Edgar continued to hold a marriage with Tamara.


"I'm not on anyone's side. I'm just being neutral whether it's you or Bimo" Levi said as if he knew what Edgar was thinking.


"Where's Bimo? Is she okay?" ask Edgar who is curious about Bimo's situation.


"The name of a heartbroken person can be said to be fine. But Bimo won't be heartbroken for long. At least for a moment, he will find a new scourge again. Don't think too much."


Levi tried to make Edgar not to think too much about the condition of Bimo's heart. His name is in love, he must be ready to fall when he is in love. That is the consequence if only the side that loves.


"When does marriage work? You can't possibly not have a plan, can you, Gar?" ask Levi.


"I want to be quick, but Raisa seems to be closing her heart tightly. What am I supposed to do, Lev? I feel sorry and stupid. If only it had been ... "


"Don't keep bringing up the past, you can remember it, but don't keep saying it, you'll get stuck there."


"I believe that something that was meant to be together will be together again. So do you and Raisa. You must have been destined, so reunited after eight years without meeting. Just waiting for the right time. Maybe not now, maybe next month, next year or even 5 more years."


Levi's words in the last sentence made Edgar frown. Wait another 5 years for him to go gray. An old man, he wants to have another child.


"This means a lot of patience, because you usually just complain, complain and complain about doang."


Edgar manyun again. I don't know why Levi's words sounded so right in his ears.


"I'm back, if there's anything you can call me. I brought this file, bye."


Levi left Edgar's office. Edgar seemed to sigh a few times. He looked at the city from the glass of his room. He realized that everything had changed. Maybe he really has to fight harder than ever.

On that dark and lonely night, Raisa walks alone looking for the twins favorite martabak, a chocolate bean sprinkled with a lot of cheese. The distance traveled to the martabak shop is not so far away, so Raisa chose to walk instead of riding her motorcycle.


Accidentally there, he met Bimo who went to the restaurant next to the martabak. Raisa wants to say hello first, but it turns out Bimo was the one who greeted Raisa.


"Hi, haven't seen each other in a long time" Bimo said.


"Yes, it's been a long time" answered Raisa.


"What's right here?" ask Bimo.


"Buy martabak for my children" answered Raisa.


"Ah, I see, the children of Edgar also mean yes?" Bimo's tone was immediately sad.


"Hm, yes," Raisa replied with no hesitation. Because Raisa was sure, Bimo had heard all those stories from Edgar. Raisa knows how the friendship between Edgar, Levi and Bimo.


"You're going back with Edgar?"


A question from Bimo made Raisa silent not to answer.


"I don't have to answer, do I?"


"Hm, yes," replied Bimo who seemed to just ask. Honestly, he needed that answer. It was just that he was too embarrassed to show his joy to Raisa. Moreover, Bimo sure, Raisa never saw himself. He must be aware that his love is indeed clapping one hand. Bimo left from there.


A few tens of minutes later, Raisa walks home because her hammer is ready. In the middle of his journey, he meets Edgar because the man suddenly stops his car. He asks Raisa to come in, but she refuses.


"Jalan aja first, at home there is Roni kok," said Raisa.


"Come on, come on in, Ca. Walking too long at night is not good. Especially the weather is cold like this. You also don't wear a jacket at all. How sick is it?"


"Don't lebai. It's still cold."


"Ah, you are stubborn, Ca."


Edgar got out of his car and took Raisa by force to get into his car.


"Dgar! Edgar!" shout Raisa.


"Don't be noisy, I didn't kidnap you. Or do you want me to kidnap? Let's just be the two of us later?" it was Edgar who made Raisa's face slightly red.
