Rapa & Cleona: Keeping the Heart
36. Is that price?

Crying may not be a good solution, but at least it can make the feeling a little calm.

Lucky at home only herself, because her mom and dad are going out of the country, which he said would do a honeymoon (again), while Laura was taken for a walk by her grandmother and grandfather.

Cleona seemed free to cry, spilling the pain Rapa gave her, albeit accidentally.

Tok tok tok tok

Cleona quickly wiped her tears, turned on her laptop and picked one of the plays before she finally opened the room door.

“Tumben door lo key,” says Clara grunt small.

“Fear of any crocodile entering,” reply with a small chuckle.

“Lo cry, Queen?” clara asked as soon as she saw the face of a friend during the oroknya.

Cleona nodded and gave her sad face. “Gue again heartbroken with Rapa,”

“Apain lo same brother I?”

“Hik hik, your brother made me jealous ...”

“Ck, that's not what it was before! I'm really kirain in making a broken heart.” Clara said with a face that turned relaxed. Of course it made Cleona feel sad again. No one cared about his feelings, but he spoke honestly.

“Lo watch this is still a cry, even though we have often watched it,” said Clara who had sat on a large bed belonging to Cleona, staring at the laptop screen that lit.

Sighing slowly, then following Clara sat on the bed. Free also turned out to talk to his best friend, his honesty even in thought joking. Perhaps it was time for her to keep her own wounds, learn to deal with the problems that arise and become more mature, as her mother had said. That not always people can understand, not always people are always there when needed, not always we are always dependent, and not always people understand what we feel. And most importantly, we are not always in happiness.

══════

Rapa never forgets her lover, even her attitude never changes. But the heart of Cleona who was feeling the pain was growing because Rapa really did not consider her jealousy the other day a serious thing.

Every time Rapa went to class, Cleona always saw Mirna among Rapa and her friends, she also knew Dava who liked her, but what Cleona didn't understand was why those feelings of jealousy were only growing now? Why didn't he know from the first moment that Rapa had a girl friend who even had a crush on him? Is it because he just realized that the closeness between them is too excessive? Or had his eyes been closed to his belief in Rapa's love which he considered so great to him? Can he think like that? If not, then give another reason so that he can understand his own feelings of jealousy.

“Queen canteen yuk,” invite Clara

“Emang lo not mojok same Burma again? Usually there are no days without a date,” Cleona ledek, making his friend snort.

“She wants to play with her friends."

“Lo not coming? Tumben, another fight?” asked Cleona, raising her eyebrows in surprise.

“Gak! I am hungry again just want to eat in the cafeteria, kangen same meatballs mang Ben,” he replied cengengesan.

“Woy come on canteen!”

Shouting from the doorway, Cleona and Clara who were left in the classroom turned their heads, finding Alisya, Nirmala, Shafa as well as Kayla standing there. He got up to four of his friends, then sauntered together to the canteen, with occasional chats inviting laughter.

Trying to be ordinary, Cleona returned smiling and ran over to Rapa who had just reached the last step of the stairs. “Abang,” greet Cleona as cheerfully as possible, standing in front of her lover who is currently scrambling his hair like a man's habit.

“You're going to the canteen, right? Yuk, we together,” said Rapa wrapped her hand on the shoulder of the lover.

“Ck, the custom of Si Cleo, if there is already a guy like to forget friends.” Cibir Kayla's.

“Syrics to single!”

“Luckily here is not just me who is single so, not too hurt.”

Laughter then sounded, making the few people in the corridor turn their heads towards them.

While in the cafeteria, Cleona somehow feels that everyone is more focused on Mirna right now, even though her friends already know her upperclassman, because Mirna joined them several times, but may she speculate that everyone is unaware of her current grief and injuries? Or maybe it is too much? The thought of that made Cleona want to immediately leave from before them and cry as much as possible.

“Agot quiet now lo Cle, why?” Daniel who turns out to be aware of Cleona's silence first.

“Gue is okay, just not feeling well anymore,” lied Cleona, then smiled small.

“You sick, Queen? Come to UKS.” With a worried tone Rapa said and immediately got up from her seat.

A slab Cleona gave, and pulled Rapa back to sit down. “No need, maybe this is because Queen's monthly guests want to come aja.”

“Yakin?” rapa asked as he pointed his hand at Cleona's forehead and neck. Checking her lover's body temperature.

Nodding was the quickest thing to do, as Cleona was unsure if to reopen her voice, her tears would not slide and vent emotions before everyone, expressing all the pain in the heart due to jealousy that is not yet clear the point of the foundation.

“So Brother must immediately prepare dong,” said Rapa with a tone made lethargic.

“What's ready?” confused Cleona.

“You will turn into a tiger if you come again month.”

“Ish, all women are also like Bang times, if again in his sensitive time.” Cleona grunts the pinch on her lover's waist.

“Yes, Si Mirna is also so if you again get monthly guests, the more savage!” she glanced in the direction where Mirna was sitting.

Again the throbbing of the pain arises without anyone knowing. “To know as well as Brother, about sister Mirna."

“Yes, do not know how to try, right he likes to bother to Abang, his stomach hurt to Abang. If suddenly comes the month at school, Brother is also told to buy a bandage."

“That's right, because only you whose veins have been broken, I buy that!” Dava shudders.

In Cleona's heart grimaced again, it turns out that the habit is not only for himself and family members only the man did, but for Mirna also Rapa did not mind.

So may he question how valuable Mirna is in Rapa's heart? Can he be jealous? Because even though it's trivial, Mirna is an outsider, while she knows, Rapa does not usually do the same to others with people she loves.
