Poison of Love Arsenio
Chand's Advice

That morning at Irma's. The middle-aged woman who had been kind enough to give a ride to Binar, looked so busy. Nastiti unceasingly wiped away the tears, when Binar was ready with all the necessities he would bring to Jakarta. “Mbak, don't forget me and mom, yes,” Nastiti's message is so clean.

“Therefore I may forget the kindness of both of you, Ti. Until death I will never forget,” reply Binar while hugging Nastiti tightly.

“Often-frequently return to Jogja yes, Nduk. This house will always be your home,” timpal Irma approached to Binar. She turns with Nastiti to hug the young girl.

“Maybe we just met, Mom. However, I already feel very affectionate towards my mother and also Titi. You two are more than relatives,” isak Binar full of days.

“Get yourself well there, yes,” order Irma again. From his attitude and words, it was as if he was about to take off his own biological daughter. Without elaborating a hug, Irma rubbed Binar's back gently and lovingly. Something Widya has never done to that girl in her entire life.

“Which needs to be brought, Ma'am? Let me help you,” bargain Nastiti.

“Nothing, Ti. I did not bring anything, just this,” said Binar while lifting a black backpack, which always faithfully accompanied him since he left Bali. “I don't bring much change of clothes,” he added.

“Yes, already, Nduk. I can only pray for the best for you,” said Irma again hugged Binar. He let go of the hug when he heard a knock on the front door.

“That must be Chand sir,” said Nastiti hurriedly running into the living room. He opened the door wide. Irma and Binar followed from behind. They all looked amazed at the appearance of the man who had officially become the widower. “Please come in, Sir,” said Nastiti inviting Chand.

“Thank you very much, but I am in a hurry,” reject Chand smooth while repeatedly stealing glances against Binar.

“I drop him yes, sir. He's been like my own son,” Irma's message. He re-embraced the Binar standing next to him feelingly. Again, a drop of tears trickled down his cheek that began to wrinkle.

“Sure, Mom. I will take care of Nirmala there. Mom nothing to worry about,” reply Chand friendly.

“I pray mbak mate with pak Chand,” whispered Nastiti while laughing crisply.

“Sst, don't be weird, Ti.” Binar's beautiful eyes glared slightly, then laughed with Nastiti.

“Come, we're leaving now,” take Chand.

“Iya, Brother,” sahut Binar nodded. He hugs Irma and Nastiti at the same time. “You have saved my contact number, ‘kan? Later we can often call, yes,” the door is full haru.

“Sure, Son. Sure is! Mom will always be ready, whenever you call,” said Irma.

“Thank you for everything.” Binar unravels the embrace. He walked out and got further and further away from the house he had been living in for almost a month. The beautiful girl walked down the small alley, side by side with Chand. They then got into the car to get to the airport. That time, Chand did not drive himself. He asked a driver to drive him and bring his car back to Kalini's house.

“You only carry that backpack, Mal?” chand asked in astonishment when they reached the airport.

Binar responded with a slow nod while forcing a smile. The feeling was so heavy when leaving Irma's house. In a few hours, he will set foot in Jakarta. Fear, palpitations, and also misgivings, mixed into one within his chest. I don't know what he will face once he arrives in the capital.

“Ayo,” invite Chand. The handsome man's voice broke the daydream of Binar .They are now in the waiting room. Before long, there was a notification from the speaker so that passengers immediately entered the plane.

“You're not afraid of heights, are you?” tanyakanya.

“It seems not, Brother,” replied Binar slowly. Since leaving Irma's house, she has become more quiet.

“Thank God. Just hold my hand if you get nervous when the plane takes off,” said Chand. His tone was so warm and soothing.

“Thank you,” said Binar while smiling faintly. His sadness was slightly relieved when he got a window seat.

“I always choose a place in first class,” said Chand, “to be comfortable,”.

“I follow what Kak Chand said,” said Binar who began to look out the window. The atmosphere was silent for a while when a flight attendant demonstrated the procedures and regulations during the flight. Followed by the order to tighten the seat belt. The plane shook slightly when it started flying. Seen Binar breathed a sigh of relief when the plane had managed to fly.

“Ya?” Chand, who was initially looking straight ahead, immediately turned to the young girl beside him.

“How long is the trip to Jakarta?” ask Binar.

“Less than one hour. Why?” Chand asked back.

“Um, i ..” Suddenly the thought of asking Chand if he knew Rain or Arsenio. However, of course Binar undo it. “Not so,” error while grimacing small.

“After arriving in Jakarta, we go directly to Prajna's apartment. You get ready first there. After that, we will go to the expo location for a joint briefing. Let me introduce you to my other men. Tomorrow ...” Chand paused his sentence. The handsome man's voice at the time seemed to be thinking.

“Tomorrow?” reset Binar.

“Besoknya I want to invite you ...” again the words Chand hangs.

“Where?” ask Binar who is getting curious.

“So, look. In addition to taking care of the expo, I also have to arrange my best friend's engagement. Tomorrow is a clean gladi event and the day after tomorrow is the party. I wish .…” Chand feels hesitant to express his intentions. “I hope you will accompany me to my best friend's engagement party, because .…” Chand is silent again. The handsome man of Indian-Javanese blood could only swallow his saliva, then looked nervously at Binar.

“Kak Chand, please do not make curious,” firmly Binar. He was really amused to see Chand's nervous and uncharacteristic attitude.

“At the engagement party, my ex-wife will be there. I'm still not ready to see him alone. Let's say I'm a coward, but that's the feeling I've ever given him,” regrets Chand slowly.

“Kak Chand still loves his ex-wife, huh?” ask Binar carefully.

“Not .. not that. Since I found out if he was betrayed, the love that used to exist slowly faded, but the pain ... still felt until now,” said Chand lowered his head for a moment, then set his eyes on Binar. His eyes looked sad at that moment.

“At least Kak Chand once knew what it was like to have,” reply Binar.

“While I ...” The girl caught her breath before telling her.

“I fell in love with someone in Bali. Our meeting wasn't long, but he really left a deep impression on the heart." Binar paused his story when he imagined his first kiss with Arsenio near the waterfall.

“What's the name?” ask Chand who is starting to be interested in listening to the story of Binar.

“Name Rain,” sahut Binar lirih. A smile fell on his lips as he called out that name. The smile that immediately faded as he again recalled the figure of Arsenio who held a press conference on television.

“Then, what happened? Does she know that you're in love with her?” chand asked again while facing his body to Binar.

The binar shook weakly. “I haven't had time to tell him, Brother. He had already left ... to Jakarta. She already has a boyfriend and will soon be engaged,”.

“So that's why you don't want to go to Jakarta? Are you afraid to meet him?” Chand raised one of his eyebrows while grinning comically.

“Like that, Brother. Looks like I won't be able to see him make out with his partner directly.” Binar laughed softly, then looked away.

“If I may give advice, just face it all, Nirmala. When do you want to run? He doesn't have the same feelings as you either. You should have shown that guy named Rain that you're special,” advises Chand.

“So yes, Brother?” tanya Binar hesitated.

“Don't worry, Mal. Remember the matchmaking formula. No matter how hard you try to avoid, if you are a match, God will surely meet you. Somehow. However, on the contrary, if you are not a match, no matter how hard you try to meet, then you will never be together. So in my opinion, just relax and live this life with a tawakal.” Chand immediately ended his input, along with an announcement from the cabin crew if soon the plane will land at Soekarno Hatta Airport.
