Bara and Arin walk side by side towards Bara's room. They walk while talking. Arin is used to Bara, because they have met often.
"Let's go in first. I'm just for a second. Just wanna grab my leftover phone."
"I'm outside A. I'm afraid to check inside." Arin smiles. He just wants to be outside.
"Verified how?" Bara is confused to hear Arin's answer.
"It's Aja's practice room, right?"
"Yes, keep.."
"What's the practice room for?"
"Create to examine the patient.."
"Well, later if I come in, I'll be patient dong."
"Eh, not so."
Bara smiled at Arin's reply. He knew Arin was joking.
"But it's true too. You are also my patient. But you're a patient of my heart Hahaha.."
"They.. I can also be kidding." Arin blushed hearing Bara's reply. Turns out Bara can't also compensate for her jokes.
"I'm not kidding. I'm the doctor of love for you."
"Dh.. Aa's getting smarter by the cob."
"Hahaha, I'm not a gumbal. Because everything is true. Let's eat meatballs now."
"Have you finished your business?"
"And I said I'd just pick up the phone I left behind."
"Ok. let's go. We eat meatballs."
"Ekhm. ekhm.."
They were both shocked to hear the voices of others.
"Lhoo. Since when is it here."
"You guys are yes. Ever since I fell asleep on the couch no one saw? I know your eyes are closed by love. Oh love .. why did you blind my two friends."
"Doctor Bram is not clear."
"Udah just yesterday. He was so. Get her sawan."
"Haha.. I'm smart to talk now. Where you guys going. I'm coming with dong." Bram. He winked at Bara.
"There's. Come on Arin, we'll leave him."
"Ready Aa...."
"Wait.I'm coming.."
Arin and Bara remained. They pretended not to hear Bram's screams. They walked along while continuing to talk. Bram caught up with them with a little run. Bram wanted to bother them both.
"Hos.. hos finally arrived. You two are evil. My time is left."
"Lo just bother. We're going to go out. It's Rin."
"Ga trust me. Or you're really already. Asyikk pj sohan dong. I'm reporting Bima yes. We met at the meatballs." Bram took his phone. Then call Bima.
"Eh. uh.. Soan what. There is no. nothing. We'll eat alone. You guys just interrupt."
Bara pursed her lips. He's feeling pissed. He wants to be alone with Arin because there are many things Bara wants to know about Arin's decision.
"Bima is coming soon. He's on his way. Funny we're eating meatballs again."
Arin just laughed at Bara and Bram's behavior. Arin happy. He could forget for a moment. He likes to be near Bram and Bara which is always exciting. He was amused by their behavior. There are always coachmen's debates that invite laughter.
Arin remembered the events of the past. A time when he often gathers with Fian and his friends. On Sunday night, playing in the river. Arin was sad. Will it all happen again?
They rarely visit his house. Since Fian disappeared and they all disappeared. I don't know what news he might not have heard, so everyone avoids it.
"Why daydream. Is something bothering you?"
Arin surprised. It turned out that Bara had been watching him. He didn't realize that. She always paid attention to him.
"Nothing, just remembered the mother's message. If you go home, don't be too late. Because there's something he wants to say."
"Truly, there's nothing else."
"Yes Aa . I'm fine."
"Hm.thankfully. Let's order right away. We've arrived."
"Doctor Bram mana. There's no."
Arin looked around. He realized that Bram was nowhere near them.
"Bram is going to the toilet. Kebelet said."
"Oh.."
They look for a seat and immediately order the food they want. Not long after their order came. They enjoy the meatballs they order with the lahab.
Arin's condition is not okay. Therefore he vent it by eating meatballs that are super spicy. He poured a few spoons of sambal into his bowl. Arin wanted to forget about the incident. But it's very difficult of course. He often heard the words of Mary. But those words were the most painful. Moreover, he heard Fian himself until threatened in such a way.
Arin couldn't have had the heart if his loved ones were miserable because of him. Arin was determined to give up. But it's not that easy as it turns out. His fellowship with Fian had been through him for as long as he lived in this world. It can't just come off. It takes a long process and also help from outside parties as well.
Bara didn't see all of Arin's sadness. Bara wants Arin to tell her the truth. Tell your own story without being asked. Because it means Arin is comfortable with her. Still waiting for that time. But until now Arin did not open his mouth at all.
Arin vents everything into the food he eats.
"Arin, enough. That's too spicy. You'll have a stomachache."
"No Aa ... I'm used to it."
"Look at your face is red. Your sweat is pouring. Even until your tears come out."
"It's okay Aa. Arin's used to it."
"Arin, listen to me. I know you're not okay. You can't vent everything like this. It's not good for your health."
Bara tries to take the bowl that Arin is holding. He wanted to get rid of that super spicy meatball. He watched Arin's situation.
Actually I know what happened. He overheard all of Mary's words.
He was examining a patient in front of Maria's room. And then Bara pas wanted to go out and he saw Arin standing at the door of the room with a very sad face. But Bara did not immediately approach because he wanted to know what Arin was doing. But he accidentally heard the words of Mary who was so loud was berating Fian. He was shocked to hear all of Mary's words.
I know why Fian is retreating. I understand why Fian gave up. Bara so know also why Arin took a decision like that.
Bara was sad when she found out that couples who love each other were hindered by blessing. Even the exclamation that was so painful was still ringing in his ears.
Bara only realized when he saw Arin running. Shortly after Fian came out of the room. And Bara just observed from a distance. He was confused as to what to do. He could only feel concerned.
And it turns out Arin saw it too. And it is not unexpected that Arin even gave an answer to his statement. Actually Bara also hesitated for Arin's answer. But for the sake of calming Arin, Bara just agree. Later at the right time he will ask slowly about everything.
There was a sense of happiness when Arin gave a receiving answer to his statement. But looking at his background, Bara instead felt sad. He did not want to take advantage of the situation.
"aa.. Aa.."
Just be quiet. She still tightly held Arin's meatball bowl.
"aa.. "
Bara hasn't been whipping either. No idea where. He was still engrossed in his daydreams.
"Sir Doctor Bara.."
Arin was anxious and also a little irritated. He screamed a little bit to Bara. The food was confiscated by Bara. He's still hungry and still needs the meatballs.
"Sir Doctor.."
"Ehh.."
Bara just heard when Arin shouted. Arin pouting.
"What's up Arin. Shouting in a public place like that."
"She didn't hear my call. I called out to Aa three times. Still not listening. What Aa was thinking. I am still hungry. That's my meatball why held so tightly. Aa sucks."
Arin was still pouting
"WkwkwkkX.. "
Bara laughed at Arin's behavior. He felt funny looking at Arin's face. Looks very adorable.
"Look out. Where's my meatball.. I'm still hungry Aa.."
"Your face is funny if it pouts so. Especially lips. Hmm ." I looked at Arin intensely. He looked at me with a smile.
"What the hell is that."
Arin threw away his face, He felt ashamed of being noticed by Bara in such a way.
"Yes if you are still hungry just change the meat. Just pesen again. Bang pesen one more bowl yes."
Bara yells. He didn't want Arin to eat that super spicy meatball.
"Remember, sambelnya not as much as before. Love your own body. If it hurts who bothers. You don't pity mom."
"Well, doctor.."
"Good.."
Bara's messing with Arin's hair. He was anxious and also felt like he was looking at Arin. He can only accompany. May Arin be amused.
"Aa.. Which Bram doctor? Our meatballs are finished yet they haven't come."
"Eh yes too. Where they are. Just leave it. Mending is like this too. Just the two of us nothing bothers."
"Dih Aa ain't clear."
"really. Haha.. Let us be friendly. We just got it."
Arin was stunned to hear Bara's words. He just remembered that he had agreed and wanted to accept Bara. Arin's face turned soft. But he tried to cover it up.
Bara saw that. He pretended not to know. He was sure Arin felt compelled to accept it. Bara believes Arin was spontaneous to speak so.
"aa.. Arin was full. Arin wants to go home. Aa paid for it. hehehe.."
"Yes, just calm down. Later Aa payin with her brother also."
"By Aa..Arin can eat meatballs every day as much as possible. Hehe.."
"It's not okay to eat meatballs anyway."
"Eh yes too. Never tried either. Hehe..."
"Let's go home and deliver."
"Don't take Arin's own vehicle."
"It's okay. I'm coming from behind."
"No need, besides Arin's house is also close from here. "
"There is no rejection. Let's you walk me first behind you."
"Aa, just this time. Arin please, let Arin go home alone. Yes, please can ya."
Arin clenched both hands. Begged Bara not to deliver it. He wants to be alone. His heart is not okay.
And Bara thought so. He was worried something happened to Arin. Because Bara knows Arin's true state. But eventually they gave up. Rather than continue arguing and the day gets night.
"Yes already. But promise me you'll have to go home okay. When you get home, you have to tell me."
"Ready Mr. Bara."
Arin saluted like a subordinate to the superior by raising his hand like a military. Bara just smiled at Arin's attitude.
They finally split up here. Arin came home on his motorcycle. While Bara went home by driving his car. Their house is in opposite direction. They take their own path.
But only a few hundred meters Bara drove his car, he turned around. His feelings feel bad. His heart beats faster. He felt something happen to Arin. Suddenly, his thoughts were on Arin.
Bara turned his way home towards Arin's house. Arin must not be far. She was worried something might happen to Arin. Fortunately, the road that afternoon did not stop. Not long after he followed from a distance he saw a motorbike similar to Arin's motorbike parked on the side of the road close to the bridge.
The mind has gone to shit. He really felt scared. He fears Arin is short-sighted and determined.
I was so surprised to see what happened. He stopped his car and immediately ran towards the bridge. Bara shouted loudly.
"Arienne......"
What happened to Arin. Is Arin really desperate or is there another incident.
Seriate.
