Rapa & Cleona: Keeping the Heart
125. Flashback #2

As soon as Laura left for college, Cleona immediately prepared herself with her husband and two children, because now he will visit the cake shop that used to be a subscription for Cleona and Laura to order Laura's birthday cake that will take place the day after tomorrow. The absence of other family members is enough to make Cleona and Rapa difficult to take care of her two children who are no longer able to stay still, what else when bathing.

Mentioning the toys held by one of them is not something strange anymore, even hitting each other and trying to get rid of one of them often happens, making Cleona pat and sigh tired. In contrast to Rapa who actually gives spirit rather than having to separate. Unless one of them had cried, then the father of the two boys would nag and give advice to both so as not to fight.

Teng nong's…

Coinciding with the completion of the twins in the dress up, a doorbell rang issuing a smile Cleona who immediately stepped in to open the door, opening the door, welcome the arrival of Edrik who today will be their driver for a walk around Singapore.

“Udah ready?”

“Each dong, the kids just can't wait to go soon.” Cleona replied, pointing to the room where her two hearts were with Rapa.

“Ya we leave now, hunt later in the day.” Cleona nodded and immediately picked up a sling bag big enough, and two sling twins. Not to forget the pacifier contains ASI supplies for where the children thirst. After that they stepped out of the apartment to the parking lot where Edrick's car was located.

“Cake shop first, yes?”

“OK,” Edrick pointed his thumb without turning a single look at Cleona who was sitting in the back seat with Nathan. While Rapa was in the front passenger seat pointing at whatever she saw along the way to inform the child in her lap, like Nathael is a boy who has understood what Rapa pointed at and explained by the man. Cleona just shook her head, letting her husband babble, while not teaching her children things they shouldn't.

“Wife, used to be during tiggal here never date?” ask Rapa suddenly.

“Entertainment. I'm the same Freya who always matches Cleo,” Edrick who said, glancing at Cleona who snorted annoyed. Rapa turned her head and raised her eyebrows as if asking and asking for an explanation.

Cleona sighed first before then telling her how her romance used to be in this country. It can not be said about romance as well, because Cleona never had a relationship with one of her date who always arranged Freya and Edrick.

Once she learns Cleona's move is an escape from the disappointment of love, Freya and Edrick set out to share a date with Cleona. Although Cleona was cold and untouchable by anyone but Freya and Edrick, there were not a few men who admired and were curious about Cleona.

Not a few men who blatantly express their love, although it always ends in a rejection of a talent that is enough to make them heartbroken. Not infrequently also deliveries of flowers, chocolates and dolls suddenly on the table or locker of the beautiful woman. Even everything was done to at least get Cleona's attention. But there was no response from Cleona which then made all the men retreat regularly.

Unable to stand Cleona's indifferent and reclusive attitude, Freya and Edrick end up planning a blind date for her best friend who lives a monotonous and lackluster life.

“What! A date? You guys serious?” Cleona shook her head inexplicably at her two friends. “Gak, I disagree!”

“Come, Cle, you have to get up. Do not be too shackled in the past, he also does not necessarily keep his heart for you. What else when you're not on his side. Aren't you in front of him..”.

“Stop!” Cleona stops Freya's remark which again reminds her of Rapa and Mirna. “OK I agree,” break up Cleona in the end give up. “But if I don't like it, please don't force me.”

“Deal!” freya and Edrick answered.

“Freya, Edrick included I just want you to find another happiness, Cle, especially papi lo. Please men are not just Rapa, and you must be sure that the soul mate will never go anywhere. If you are the same Rapa is a mate, as many as good men around you, no matter how far the distance that separates, you will definitely be reunited.”

Cleona eventually complies and meets the man Freya chose and Edrick becomes her date. There was no need to doubt how they would look like to be her date for one consecutive month, but among them none of them attracted Cleona's attention. No matter how fancy they choose a dating spot, no matter how romantic the man treats Cleona, none of them are memorable.

Cleona instead feels guilty, not to the man who became her date, but the guilt is on Rapa, she feels as if she has betrayed her love, she said, betraying Rapa who is not at all known to him, because the papi who did close all access so that Cleona did not contact anyone in Indonesia including his father and his mother.

Every time she came home from her date, Cleona would cry while continuing to say sorry to Rapa, making Edrik, so that, Both Freya and Leo and Alvin eventually gave up and no longer forced Cleona to be close to any man. Leo, as a father, could not bear to see every tear that came out of the sad eyes of his first child. And not infrequently cursed Rapa in the heart for making her son so love the man.

“Is that love you to that man?” edrick asked as soon as they reached the apartment and Cleona's cries stopped. “May I beat him up for hurting you?” he continued with an angry face and clenched hands, hitting the air.

“Before you succeed mukul Rapa, who was in love first you, Drick.” Leo who was in the middle between Cleona and Laura gave a sneer when he saw his son's strange friend was whiny.

“Sama papi aja Edrick has fallen in love,” the wink given men kemayu it makes Leo shudder in horror. But try not to hurt Edrick's distorted feelings. Because after all all humans are worthy of respect, including a nation of Edrick who may still be a lot out there.

“If you do not like bars, papi sincerely love Queen with you, Drick.” Said Leo who quickly got a pinch of protest marks from Cleona.

“But equally Alvin also papi agrees, Queen, how? Do you want to be Alvin?”

“Alvin has Freya, om!” freya protested quickly and tightly hugged her lover's hand, while Leo laughed as well as Cleona and Laura.

“Alvin has often been rejected Cleo, om. So, instead of the heartache continued, mending turned the same Freya ..”

“So you made me a runaway?” letting go of his embrace, Freya stared angrily at Alvin.

“Well yes,” relaxed Alvin replied, then back to bring his lover into the arms.

“Good!” hitting hard on the chest of Alvin's field, Freya even more tightly embraced her lover, rather than having to let go. “How dong, abis I love. Bodo is very much a runaway anyway, lo-nya also love me. My beauty is too dear to be rejected by men,” he said confidently, making Alvin anxious himself.

“Whose word? The proof is that I'm a man not interested in you at all,” Edrick said.

“Yes because lo ‘kan likes the same maco!”

Seeing his friends it was Cleona's laughter was re-engraved, sad even reduced. It's just that, every time he saw Alvin and Freya, Cleona always remembered Rapa, his mountain longing wanted him to explode immediately. And in Cleona's heart she always prayed that Rapa could take care of her heart, and also keep her love as she did.

Cleona did not want his return to be faced with regret and disappointment. He does not want to go home that brings a million hopes even faced with Rapa's happiness with other women. Cleona would never have been ready if that had happened.
