Rapa & Cleona: Keeping the Heart
35. Can I Be Jealous?

Since Alvin's absence, waiting for Rapa to finish collecting OSIS became Cleona's new routine. Especially since knowing Clara has a lover, there is only a reason to trick Rapa into allowing her to go home first, leaving Cleona alone sitting in front of the OSIS room.

But even so Cleona never complained, because having an understanding lover is a gift. Rapa never made him wait in boredom, always a lot of snacks the man gave to accompany him spend time.

The other members of OSIS were even used to her existence, Cleona also not infrequently chatted and joked with them. Many of them liked her and supported her relationship with Rapa, but it was clear that even those who did not like her existed, because of Nia, The cunning fox who was unfortunately less astute to fight Cleona and Clara still roamed there, though, in a moment it will release the term of office which this meeting and that makes OSIS will be busy and Nia increasingly have the opportunity to stick to Rapa.

An hour waiting, Cleona was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief as soon as the doors of the OSIS room opened and one by one they came out about to go home. Some of them greeted Cleona and said goodbye, while Nia instead gave a sharp look full of hostility. Indeed never tired of the woman looking for a storm, even though Cleona has often defeated.

Ignoring the fox woman, Cleona chose to waltz into the OSIS room to approach Rapa who had not yet come out, but his steps were stopped at the doorstep when his eyes saw two people who were joking, looking sweet and affectionate even if the other person looking would definitely think that they were a romantic couple.

A few seconds standing to watch, Cleona then chose to retreat and again sat on the chair she had been in while waiting for Rapa. His suddenly tight chest makes him not strong standing longer, his heart aches watching his lover with another woman, even though he knows that Mirna is a close friend of Rapa, but may he feel jealous?

Indeed, he had known enough Mirna, also knew that the woman liked Rapa since the tenth grade. Joking and teasing each other Cleona had seen, and at first she was ordinary, feeling that there was no harm in such a friend, but over time, why did the sense of tightness grow? Added by seeing the incident just now, the feeling of tightness and pain seemed to bother him.

“Ayo Queen we go home.”

Cleona blinked a few times when a rub in his head he felt, making him look up and see the handsome face of Rapa smiling sweetly towards him which of course he immediately replied.

“Completed! Come on, Rap.”

Looking at her, Cleona for a second then dampened her smile as soon as she saw Mirna who was already standing beside Rapa, the smile did not also recede, what else when Rapa gave a flick on the woman's forehead and then both laughed.

He should have been used to seeing their behavior, just like the days before. But for some reason now it feels different, his heart throbbing pain what else along the path to the parking lot of the two people did not stop giving each other the ledge that always ended with laughter. Cleona felt like she was walking with a couple who were joking, but here she felt like a third person.

“Gue nebeng is okay, Cle?” ask Mirna as soon as they arrive at the parking lot.

Cleona turned to Rapa, and the man just put his shoulder around. Returning to look at Mirna, Cleona finally inevitably nodded despite her heavy heart, as she knew, Rapa must have given her permission before they walked over to the parking lot. Again this is not the first time, but why now it feels so heavy?

“Lo doesn't open the door for me, too, Rap?” mirna said as soon as she saw Rapa open the car door for Cleona as she was used to.

“Dih, open it yourself. I'm just ready for my angel doang,” reply Rapa stuck out her tongue. Cleona only smiled slightly before finally entering, sitting in the front passenger seat.

“Nyebelin emang lo, Rap, beware if later reiterate my nyontek,”

“Laga lo, massage. Do not remember if every PR is always cheating me!?”

“That's because I'm lazy, Mir.”

“Reason. How do you want Cle to be her boyfriend? gesrek, mrs again!” mirna said she gave a delicacy to Rapa who was driving.

“Not realizing you, sister, you used to have a crush on my boyfriend. What is still?” now Cleona was not without reason to talk like that, she wanted to insinuate her upperclassmen. But unfortunately because it seems like it did not manage to silence Mirna.

“Haha, that's because I used to be a khilaf, Cle. Good thing it is now aware of the pellet.” Mirna replied still with the rest of her laughter.

“Gue does not use pellets only girls have approached. My charm cannot be avoided.”

“Cih, cocky once you father ketu!”

Cleona was very eager to get home and away from the two men. If you knew it would be like this, Cleona chose to go home alone since then.

Rapa seemed to not care about his existence, and even cool with his female friend. Not that Cleona had been silent since then, once she had joined the two men, but it seemed that she could not shift Rapa's focus to just her, because now Cleona finally chose silence and turned her face to look at the streets.

Arriving in front of the fence Mirna house, Rapa stopped her car, asking her friend to immediately go down, which was responded with a sharp delicacy also a punch on the shoulders of Rapa that made the man laugh out loud. Again Cleona smiled faintly at that, her heart getting sicker and eager to cry right now.

“Abang as close as it turns out to be the same, sister Mirna,” said Cleona opened the conversation as soon as the car in Rapa drove back.

“She's the one-on-one best friend that does make Queen's comfortable brother, she's what she is sometimes close to crazy, although people who are new to know will think Mirna a fierce and rigid figure.” Rapa replied with a small smile carving at the corner of her lips.

“Can't Queen be jealous because Brother is the same as her?”

“Haha, so Queenya Brother is jealous again?” goda Rapa breaks Cleona's hair. “Ngapain is also jealous of her? Besides he's brother's best friend, what should you try jealous of? It's clear that his love brother is just the same as you,” continued Rapa, grabbed one hand of his lover, then he gave a kiss on the fingers of the tiny hand.

Cleona's small smile then turned her face away from Rapa, looking straight ahead while enjoying the pain all by herself. It turned out that Rapa was not that sensitive to her feelings. It is true, no matter how close we are, as long as we are close, no matter how close our relationship, the third person will always be present, even worse in the guise of friendship. Although there was no intention to destroy, but one that they did not realize, that the wound was real even though invisible. And the wound was real Cleona felt.
