Romantic Short Story
Love In Losari Beach (Difficult to Let Go!)

It's been a week, now I'm home where I was born. I was sitting in my second-floor balcony watching my neighbor who was drying the rice from his rice field yesterday.

I also ignored my family's repeated calls from below. They said they missed me and wanted to talk to me. I still could not afford to see my family because of the disappointment and sadness that still enveloped my life.

Even though it had been a week in my hometown, I had never left home at all. My mom and dad were busy gardening. I tried to help her even though my condition wasn't okay.

At noon, I heard a knock on the door when I finished eating. I thought it was a guest or family of my neighbor who wanted to see me. I opened my door and was surprised to see Mita with a little boy about ten years old.

"Mita! Why are you here?"

Mita hugged me, I tried to hold back my tears and harbored my emotions. Mita and I, too, were sitting in the living room, giving her a cup of warm tea.

I see, Mita's eyes are so swollen and her tears still come out. Looks like Rifki, she doesn't accept that Mita is pregnant with her child.

"What's wrong?" soft ask.

"Please go back to Makassar, basically Kak Rifki hmmm the situation is worse. I know, he needs you. Please, calm him down. But he has to take responsibility for me and my parents."

"I'm giving up, Put. I don't know how to calm him down."

"He passed S2, Put. But.. now he hmmm his condition is bad because of lack of food as well every time I meet him, he is angry. Scold me, Put!"

"Where is he now?"

"In your kostsan. Even Riko gave up. I know, he needs you!"

..........

That day the Princess returned home after seeing the quarrel Mita and Rifki. The princess returned home without telling the two employees as well as the people who lived in her boarding houses.

The princess was very disappointed, because she was too hopeful. The day after Princess in her homeland, Mita attempts to persuade Rifki where she lives.

When Mita arrives at the boarding house, Rifki refuses Mita's presence and forces her to leave.

"Please don't tell me to go, brother! Brother has to take responsibility." Mita whines until she hugs Rifki's arm.

"I don't need you anymore, Mita. I love the Princess."

"I told you that the baby you were carrying was not me. I'm sure it was Rival!"

"Try asking him, I'm sure it was him!" reprimand Rifki to Mita while shaking both shoulders of the girl.

"Where he may have been, that day I slept in your hostels." Brawl Mita and slap Rifki's left cheek.

"However it is your talk. I don't feel it, so please don't see me again!" rifki snapped and went back to her room.

Three days later, Mita returns to meet Rifki who is working at the Princess's shop. Rifki becomes uncomfortable until almost viral because Pingky and Lily almost recorded it.

"What are you doing here? How do you know I work here?" Rifki snapped, the man's face was completely filled with disappointment.

"Go! Before I hurt you." Rifki glared at Mita's face.

"Please take responsibility, brother."

"I don't want so many people to know that I'm ham-,"

"Hush!"

Rifki pulls Mita's hand out of the mall.

"You didn't think before you said it. You're not ashamed if anyone hears you, huh!"

"Do I have to yell at your ear if it's not me!"

Rifki was mowing the trash can and that very second Riko came to see her. Rifki lost consciousness, he punched his best friend's chest and cheeks until he threw them against the wall.

The noise was heard by the guard or satpan Mall who was monitoring the place in the parking lot.

"Hey, stop!" The guard managed to pet them.

"Why you?" riko asked, his face was bruised. Fortunately, he was not angry and knew that there was a problem with Princess and Mita.

"Don't vent anger on me! Next time to the wall!"

"Aghs, do you believe that I'm pregnant with Mita?" riffi asked in annoyance.

"No, lah! My friend's time is like gini. Don't be so angry. In essence, there was a time when the matter would reveal itself." Riko's reply made Rifki's anger subside a little.

"But, Riko... Huh! My patience is running out, Mita. The girl will see the Princess again!"

"Listen, man. Even if it's not your fault, go for it. I'm sure, you and the Princess will be together again! If my words are correct, help pay off my motorcycle installments." Riko makes Rifki laugh wickedly.

"Where do I trust the same child of lovers of quotes and motivations." Rifki, he's back at work.

^^^...^^^

I finally returned to Makassar with Mita. Along the way, I didn't chat at all and let out the slightest words. Except telling her to eat because she doesn't want Mita's health to be compromised again.

I was at the store at night after driving Mita to her boarding house. I saw Rifki closing my shop aided by my two old employees. After that my old employee left after saying goodbye to Rifki.

I started to approach Rifki and did not forget to give her a bouquet of flowers because 2 days ago I did not attend her graduation.

"Assalamualaikum! Congratulations on graduating!" Said behind him.

" Rifki turned around, she hugged me tightly.

"Don't let me go with Mita. Please don't let go of me, Put!"

"Trust me, I didn't make Mita pregnant!"

"Here you go, we better not discuss this matter. We're still dating and there's still about 1 week a day." My reply made her tears just slip away.

"Listen, from now on I don't want you to beg and apologize. We are still dating like before."

"Let's go home!"

"You should go to bed and tomorrow we're off to the beach, okay!"

"Daughter, come! I beg you!"

"I said, stop talking about it." I scolded Rifki a little and made her a little shocked.

"Please don't say that, just go for it! Human life is not always smooth!"

"You are the same Riko, even though this matter is very heavy for me!" batin Rifki looked annoyed.

Brother Rifki nodded, he held my hand tightly.  I tried to be strong and hold back my tears. One more week, I hope it will last until the end or just a month.

Can I make Rifki forget about me in order to take responsibility?

About the flow of life, it is tiring but there is also a name happy and happy. Whatever it is, stay alive.

Seriate...
