Dona paused for a moment on the side of the road, trying to clear her mind for a moment by closing her eyes, for some reason the pain stopped in her heart. With a tight chest, Dona again continues her journey to Ayu's house.
During the journey, the shadow of Gilang's face that tried to hold him back from leaving earlier made Dona's heart unsettled.
Dona's motorbike finally stopped right in front of the house that Ayu shared with Billy since a few months ago. Dona let out a long sigh, placed her hands on her chest, trying to brace herself not to cry. The humiliation he had received earlier had really left him injured. He tried as hard as possible not to look sad in front of Ayu. He did not want Ayu to know what she had just experienced.
Dona walks into Ayu's house after the door is opened by an ART house Ayu. Dona immediately walked to the living room where Ayu was sitting casually watching television. Ayu looked increasingly fat, he was chewing an apple while focusing on staring at the television screen until he was unaware of the arrival of Dona.
"Khaemmm.... So serious." Said Dona which made Ayu surprised.
"Yes aampuun Don. Why don't you tell me you want to come here." Ayu tried to stand up, but Dona quickly stepped towards her.
"Do not stand, sit down." Dona's Word. He then handed over the goods he brought.
"What's this?" Ask Ayu.
"Brinkles for pregnant women."
Ayu smiled and opened Dona's luggage. In addition to the clothes that Dona bought at the mall, Dona also brought Ayu a light snack in the form of pastries and fruits.
"A lot of Don. Thanks, you know what I like."
Dona smiled, but again her mind was distracted because she remembered the incident that had just happened to her.
"Why you?" Ask Ayu.
Dona looked up, trying to hold back her tears from falling. He smiled and looked at Ayu.
"I'm fine." The reply. "Oh yeah, how's this debay doing?" Dona stroked Ayu's big belly.
"Don, I know you. We won't be two months. You why? Any more problems?" Ask Ayu again.
"Don't talk about my problem. I'm not here to share your problems. I want your nengokin and nanyain tidings." Dona.
"I'm good. But you don't look good anymore."
Dona took a long breath. He realized, he could not hide anything from Ayu. Ayu really understood herself the most. But, anyway, Dona doesn't want to make Ayu think. So, Dona decided not to say anything.
"Yes, I'm really okay. I'm doing fine. Just another sauces, the task of college stacked. Well now I also can not long because I have to go to perform my duties. I just came by here."
Ayu looked at Dona with a look of disbelief.
"Udah yes. Kain the next time I come back here. Now I have to go first." Dona holds Ayu's hand and then chips. After that he walked out of Ayu's house.
'I know you're hiding something from me Don.'
Ayu could only stare at the back of her best friend who was walking out of her house. He himself could not have forced Dona to tell him the problem. This time, Ayu could only hope that Dona could immediately solve the problem she was facing.
This time Dona tried desperately to try strong in front of Ayu. This time, he deliberately chose to be alone until calm and was forced to lie to Ayu if she wanted to do her college work. Even though Dona just wants to get out of Ayu's house so that Ayu no longer searches for her.
The motorbike driven by Dona walked out of the yard of Ayu's house, initially Dona did not know the direction and purpose until it was thought that he went to the beach to calm down. He sent Aditya a short message to catch up with him on the beach. The only person who could be his place to pour out all his frustrations was Aditya.
Half an hour away, Dona finally arrived at the beach. He breathed a long breath slowly. Then walk towards the beach. Dona looked straight ahead staring at the waves. After a long journey, he finally arrived at the suburban beach. Dona started walking down the beach with a smile, I don't know what crazy idea was stuck in his mind earlier, it was afternoon like this instead choose to go to the beach.
A gentle breeze moved Dona's hair that had begun to lengthen and was tied high. Slowly, his eyes closed with the hand he stretched out while taking a deep breath, then exhaling slowly. Dona did so many times until her heart was completely calm.
"Not good, Don? The plan is, I want to design our house later. I know you like modern classics the most."
"Where do you want a honeymoon? Try searching for a good and romantic location."
"Don, if we marry later. I'm going to have a big party, let everyone know how beautiful the wife of the CEO of HR Group is"
"Don..."
"Don..."
"Don..."
"Coraladr!" Dona shouted as loudly as possible, while remembering all the words that Gilang said that ran aground without a trace.
His breath was piqued after that. The chest rumbled violently as the tightness returned to fulfill it. Slowly his body sat down to the sand, holding his painful chest back. The pain is not due to parting with Gilang, but the humiliation that Gilang's parents did to him and Gilang as a man who claimed love was silent. Even impressed to blame him for the attitude he showed against mama Gilang.
'Why is this sick?'
Regardless of the surrounding conditions, Dona dropped her body on the sand with her head staring at the afternoon sky that was no longer as bright as earlier. Something warm he felt flowed from the end of his eyes.
'Lord ... Please hold my heart, so as not to hope except for You. Forgive me for being rude to parents.'
Dona felt regret in her heart over the attitude she had shown earlier. But how else? Rice has become porridge, everything has happened and can not be turned back.
"Had yelled?" The baritone's voice rang out in Dona's ears, the man immediately took a sitting position beside Dona's lying body.
Dona's eyes, which had been closed, reflexively opened when she heard the sound. Aditya sat with something in his hand.
"Let's be careful if you're thirsty later" he said, lying on the sand beside Dona and putting a bottle of chocolate on his left side.
Dona was just speechless he lay by the beach for a very long time and continued to look up at the sky, until finally he felt the raindrops landing on his cheeks. Although reluctant, Dona is forced to wake up, because Aditya continues to pull him. Dona woke up and looked around, which was very quiet.
"Udah wants night, rain too. Let's just go home."
Dona walks and picks up her shoes and cell phone and walks beside Aditya leaving the beach. Dona looks so messy.
"Don, life is like a highway. We will meet many intersections, which sometimes make the speed of our vehicles stop for a moment, before finally continuing the journey again to get to the destination" said Aditya.
Dona remained silent, she had not even said anything to Aditya. But, the man had given him the motivation he really needed.
"Your life is your path, you can decide when to stop and when to continue the journey. There are no wounds that don't heal, no wounds that don't have a cure, and every wound has a destiny. It's all a matter of time and how hard we work, leave it to God, let God do it." Aditya.
Dona then approached Aditya as the two arrived at the parking lot.
"Do you know what I'm going through?" Dona asked looking at Aditya sharply.
"How do I know that you're not a stupid story yourself." Aditya ruffled Dona's hair. "What do you think I have the ability to read minds?"
Dona smiled as she patted Aditya's arm.
"Well, that's a smile. Don't be so funny anymore. Now we go home. Afraid of the rain."
Dona nodded, while receiving the helmet Aditya gave her.
"Just a minute. Where's your bike?" Tanya Dona who just realized that there is only a motorbike in the parking lot.
Dona then began to ride on the motorbike and slowly the two-wheeled vehicle drove slowly through the rain stubs.
"You wear a coat, I'm used to rain," declined Dona when Aditya offered to take shelter due to the increasingly heavy rain.
"This coat is yours, why am I wearing it?"
"You're the one who uses it. I'd like some more tasting." Reply Naura.
"Oh yeah, if that's how we're raining." Aditya put the rain coat back into Dona's motorcycle seat.
Finally, the two continued on their way, crashing in the rain. About an hour away, they finally got home. Cold pierced Dona's skin because the clothes she was wearing were soaked.
"Here you go in, immediately clean yourself change clothes. Do not forget to drink milk or warm tea. I'm home ya." Aditya.
"Well, where's your bike?" Ask Dona.
"Nooh." Appoint Aditya in a car that turns out to have been following the two.
"Yes, I'm in." Dona said with Aditya's nod.
"Don is patient, yes. I don't know what your problem is, because you don't want the story from earlier. But judging from my grandfather's experience when I lost Papa and Mama, if again sad grandfather always prayed to say the name of God. As grandfather said, leave our hearts to God Don, if sincere later the sadness will be replaced with happy. Because indeed, we as humans can only plan and God is the one who decides the end" said Aditya at length.
Dona smiled at the man's words. "Yes, I'll try Dit. Greetings to grandfather, yes. Thanks for the advice." reply Dona.
"Yes. You are strong Don." said Aditya.
Then Aditya said goodbye. Afterwards, Dona enters and the house is in a quiet condition. The rain out there makes Dona's parents sleep fast.
Dona immediately went to the bathroom, cleaned her body and changed clothes. When she finished, Dona went to the kitchen. Not eating since noon turned out to make his stomach sore, his hand moved to take instant noodles cup to cook it.
"From earlier?" bu Nir's voice suddenly appears on the kitchen doorstep and surprises Dona.
"Oh my goodness, I was shocked. Kirain is asleep, ma'am." replied Dona as she poured water into the teapot.
"No." replied Miss Nir. "That's why I made chicken soup."
"Thank you ma'am, but eat it tomorrow morning. It can still be learned, right?" Dona asked with a nod from Bu Nir. "Now, I want to eat this noodle again."
The water began to boil, Dona then poured hot water into her noodle cup.
"You have another problem with Gilang?" asked Bu Nir who was sitting at the dining table.
Dona's hand, which was stirring the noodles, stopped for a moment when she heard her mother's words. The position of Dona who turned her back to Bu Nir, suddenly she turned and sat beside her Mother and began to eat noodles. But Dona still tried as calmly as possible to respond. "Sir Ma'am" he said briefly, continuing to eat.
"Son, dia–"
"I want to go to bed and eat Mom" Dona cut without looking at Bu Nir.
"Say outside, son."
Dona's hand reflex stopped holding the chopsticks.
"At least give Nak Gilang a chance to be clear, let the misunderstanding between you be done." Continue Bu Nir.
Dona stood up and looked at Bu Nir.
"What did Mom do? Unless he breaks the glass there, then can rearrange it the same as before without leaving a single crack. And ... Let's just say it's my heart" said Dona with a thundering chest pointing to a mirror attached to the wall.
Dona rushed into the room carrying her dinner, then leaned back behind the door and took a deep breath. Breaking up love does not hurt, because the sick when it has broken up but still love.
Ms. Nir came out of the house, heard the door opened and closed a few moments after. Not long after, Miss Nir knocked on Dona's door.
"Don, there's a seat for you. Mother cantolin at the door, yes," said Bu Bir from outside.
"Make a mother." Shouted Dona.
Bu Nir just shook his head, then was heard walking away from Dona's room.
Dona who was eating dinner, did not really care and chose to continue watching movies on the laptop. After she finished eating, Dona came out of the room and immediately her eyes were fixed on the parcel hanging from the doorknob, and Dona was still unconcerned.
After finishing washing her hands and about to enter the room, Dona just took the parcel and saw the contents.
'Good health, Don. You were raining a long time ago.'
A letter on a small paper. Not only drinks, but also chocolate.
Dona looked at the old little paper, from whom else if not Gilang.
After putting the parcel on the table, Dona dropped her body on the bed, then looked at the ceiling of the room. As if it had become a habit if there were more thoughts, Dona was just silent and would look at one point until bored. And this time, again there was a shadow of Gilang there. Although faint but able to make Dona's feelings not careless.
Dona let out a long breath slowly, along with her slowly closed eyes.
'If in the real world I am still reluctant to meet you, hopefully in the dreamland we will meet with good conditions without any interference from your mother.'
***************************
Morning.....
"Don, yesterday–"
"Mother if you want to talk about Gilang, I no longer want to be horrified," cut Dona when Miss Santi was about to say something.
Naura who had just finished taking a bath sat down at the dinner table and immediately ate the fried rice that Bu Nir had made.
"Not that. That's why Mom used to be, today you don't have school hours, right?" Ask Ms. Nir.
"There's no ma'am, so I'm just gonna lie down at home."
"You sick?" ask Bu Nir again.
"Sir, I'm fine."
Not wanting to be asked again, Dona immediately passed into the room. Dona wants to send a message to Aditya that he is not in today because there is no lecture.
When going to pick up the phone at the table, Dona's gaze was fixed on the parcel from Gilang last night which was still lying, and at all he had not been drinking. Without a second thought, Dona put it straight into the desk drawer.
'I will try to throw away all the things that remind you.'
Seriate.....
