Sharing Love: Winning Without Love
Unavoidably
From a few meters away, Tama still sees Radit and Khaira. Actually it was really not nice to feel his heart hot with the scenery in front of him. But what is felt in the heart, can not be predicted before. A few days ago, Tama apologized. In fact, now she remains emotionally ignited when she sees the woman she loves is with her husband.
Tama's heart rages on as she recalls how a few years ago she tried to declare her love for Khaira. Unfortunately, even though his feelings were never reciprocated. Khaira only saw him as a friend no more.
"Once I told my own heart to forget you. It's not that easy, Khai ... Several years passed and this heart still wants you. This heart still hopes that one day this feeling will be reciprocated. This is indeed a sin, but why is it so hard to forget you, Khai...."
Tama just sat by continuing to observe the togetherness of Radit and Khaira. The man refused to go to them and say hello. His heart still ached, given that Khaira had never seen him as a man. Even just seeing that happy couple, Tama's heart felt so sick.
While on the other hand, Radit was taking food. The man put food in his wife's mouth several times.
"What else do you eat, honey, I take it?" He was still chewing his food.
Khaira chuckled. "You're so funny the hell Mas .. chewed first .. swallowed first, just talked. Your cheeks are so swollen." she said as she pointed at her husband's cheek.
While Radit is still busy chewing his food. "This one is delicious Darling .. try deh." he said while feeding a spoonful of food into his wife's mouth.
Khaira shook her head. "I'm full, Mas. Full of my stomach."
Radit also gave up. "Just do not diet-diet Darling .. inget, my love is not based on the needle of the scales that move to the right. My love for you is stable, whatever you want and wherever you are, I still love you." he said, raising his eyebrows.
It felt like Khaira wanted to hit her husband. It could be dreadful at his friend's wedding reception. "Gombal ..." picked it up while spreading his shoulder.
Radit laughed. "Seriously .. I love you so much. Want proof?"
Khaira immediately shook her head. "No. Not ... ishhh, what the hell Mas. Shame to know this is a crowded place."
The two continued to sit and chat, until the reception was finally over. When the closing ceremony Radit invited his wife to say goodbye first to Metta and Dimas, as well as to say happy for both.
"Bro, once again congratulations yes .. happy with the Wife. Don't procrastinate momongan, later we can set the playdate with Arsyila." He hugged his best friend.
Dimas laughed too. "Ready .. we also do not procrastinate. We will play at home sometime. Kangen with Arsyila." said Dimas happily.
Along with Khaira, she hugs her best friend Metta. "Congratulations My Bestie .. my prayer you two Sakinah, Mawaddah, Warrahmah, like your prayer when I let go of my bachelor. Happy always yes." said Khaira while hugging her best friend.
Metta nodded too. "Thank you Khai .. sometime we want to go to your house again. Kangen the same Arsyila. Baby's very nervous." said Metta.
"Come, important news first yes .. fear that Arsyila fit to play at the house of Grandma or Her. So tell me first." said Khaira.
After that, the four of them took pictures again and then the two said goodbye to go home.
The two of them still joined hands, heading out of the wedding reception to their car park. The two still do not know there is Tama who is still faithfully watching him.
But soon Tama passed away, when he got out of the hotel. The man still faithfully rode his iron horse. When Tama was wearing her helmet, her heart was hot again considering the togetherness of Radit and Khaira.
"Love clapping one hand why is this sick? How am I supposed to forget you, Khai?" he murmured in the heart.
With her emotions still stirred and heart raging, Tama took off her motorcycle as fast as she could. He did not realize there was a road crossing that was running slowly, while with his high speed it would be very difficult to brake. Unexpectedly, the motorcycle drove up and hit one of the people who was crossing the road. Collisions are inevitable.
There was a scream as the big enough motorcycle hit the man's body.
"Mas Radittt's...."
Radit was the victim of the accident that afternoon. The man fell down. His head seemed to be hit by a heavy burden, his eyes even darkened, and the distance with Khaira seemed to be getting away. One bloody hand extended towards Khaira.
In his vague gaze, Radit still saw how Khaira was limping towards him with tears streaming down her eyes.
Hearing the screams heard, Tama who began to waver also fell on the side of the road. The rearview mirror of the motorcycle was scattered around the road body. While Tama still heard the screams she heard.
A few meters from the fall of Tama, Khaira was seen crying and resting her husband's head on her thigh.
"Please .. please.." he said with a sobbing cry that sounded bitter in the ear.
Grateful not to wait long, an ambulance arrived and Radit was immediately taken to the Hospital. The man was still conscious even though his hands and face were bleeding.
"Don't cry .. Good thing you survived, dear." she said softly along the way to the Hospital.
Khaira still clasped her husband's hand. She did not know how serious her husband's injuries were. There was definitely no blood on the head area, but his hands and face were indeed bleeding.
In her heart it felt so tight to see her husband, the person she loved the most in a split second had an accident like this. It should have been him who had this accident, but it was for the sake of protecting Khaira that Radit did all this.
Yes, when Radit and Khaira were crossing the road to pick up their car. It was as if Radit had realized there was a motorbike speeding by. Immediately Radit changed the position of Khaira's walking, the man even had a little push Khaira so as not to be hit by an iron horse. Radit sacrifices himself to protect the woman he loves most.
On the other hand, Tama did not expect. The bike hit Radit. The heat in his heart changed with regret. He who thinks too much about Khaira to ride his motorcycle at high speed, so he does not realize in front of him there are people who are crossing the road, and the person is Radit and also Khaira.
"I'm sorry, Khai .. I'm sorry" he said with regret because he was the one who accidentally injured Khaira.
