THE FORGOTTEN LOVE On The Train
ONE HOUR: When the First Snow Drops
The distinctive sound of the train was shrill, so that wild animals protected by a worldwide agency World Animal Proteciton or World Animal Protection, finally crossed the train tracks that passed The Blue Train. So the train drove back to its final destination, Capetown.
Valentino was silent, wrapping a bathrobe on Leyka's body that looked tired with a pias face and trembling knees. Then she carried him and took Leyka out of the bathroom, then dropped him off at the dresser. He left Leyka there without speaking. As Leyka wanted to talk, Valentino passed away to go to the bathroom continuing his delayed shower.
He dried his hair, after half dry he changed clothes. His feelings are getting more and more uncertain. Valentino didn't come back from the bathroom after holding him. The pain throughout his body, especially in his groin, made Leyka reluctant to walk and peek at Valentino.
Time kept rolling and the notice that the train would arrive in Johannesburg reverberated. Their hearts were pounding and Valentino instantly came out of the bathroom.
He looks like he's changed clothes. Just a white t-shirt and jeans, whatever Valentino looks good on Leyka's eyes. His eyes looked reddish, and he walked towards Leyka who had been sitting on the sofa clasping her jacket. Leyka getting off at JOHANNESBURG!
I will not beg again. This is enough Leyka.. You're so stubborn.. We're just strangers and let it stay that way.. Valentinos.
Valentino sat next to Leyka and grabbed Leyka's fingers attached to a ring with a jacaranda flower motif and held it.
"I'm sorry if I hurt you and created hell for you. But for me-I never felt this happy as long as I knew many women. Maybe I'm a dirty man and not easy to get along with, I'm very idealistic and arrogant. And I'm the picky type, Leyka. I've never even touched anyone but you, not even Rebecca. For me the number two woman after Success. That's why I became a hard worker. I relied on myself, while my three brothers relied on my extended family business. I got it with my own hands. I'm the one who never feels satisfied when a result is not from my hand" Leyka listened carefully, her head bowed, her eyes staring at the burly hand playing her fingers. Valentino patted his fingers every now and then he just*masnya.
"Even when Rebecca was present in my life, I told you once, she came, not me who was ensnaring or searching. Because women only number two is not the main one. You also came to me, even through misunderstanding, whether by fate or whatever, but you're different. When I found out Rebecca was serious about having a comfortable relationship with me, I never said Love to her because Love for me was unnecessary, Love only needs to be shown through deeds" and Valentino grabbed Leyka's chin to look her in the eye.
"But you're different. Women have always loved treasures and lots of gifts which is why I treat you like Rebecca. I even said Love to you and it wasn't easy for me. I just realized that when you said we were only 1 hour away - Ley, I'm sorry. I'm not going to get out of the stranger zone, because we are like that. I've been with you all this time, I've been so savage to vent my lust, it's because I found comfort even more than that I wanted to have you. If we were one country, I would definitely not ask you to come along. Because you will always be in my grasp" Leyka grabbed Valentino's hand that held his chin and stacked it with both hands that were on his thighs.
"The image of this country contains true freedom, you make me know freedom. You made me forget who I was in Italy. Leyka, this bar girl is a noble princess who wants to leave her nature. That's why you're different. Leyka, may you reach your goal and I reach mine. I would never expect to meet you but I will spend the winter of the year in Switzerland. I fantasized about playing sky and drinking the best wine there with you - I could only fantasize" Leyka looked back at Valentino's fingers that were bolted between his fingers. Hearing the words of Valentino as if a solicitation or persuasion that makes it colder.
Selfish. Chase women.. Don't ask a woman to chase you. Leyka's inner being disappointed.
"Are you going to St. Moritz?" ask Leyka gently.
"Yes, you're right, Leyka. How do you know?"
"You're a tourist looking for an iconic spot. You'll be there - when people come to Capetown or Johannesburg, I choose Pretoria. You were in Pretoria because of me. Your real destination is Capetown. A metropolis where you can get a lot of projects on vacation. You once said you'd be long in Capetown"
"Leyka, you can guess my way of thinking" Valentino gasped and Leyka just smiled faintly.
"And I know you don't like asparagus, without me asking you-Do you know what I don't like?" Valentino rounded his eyes, he never thought that Leyka noticed such a detail.
"Eh..N-no Ley-- what you don't like"
"Neither need to know. Because it's not important"
"You want to make me die of curiosity?" Leyka seemed to develop her smile and cast her gaze towards Valentino and the gaze met again.
"I don't like, people who don't like asparagus" Valentino's heart as if crushed, it's painful. But he covered it with his discordant laughter.
"What do you like?"
"Asparagus" Leyka answered, drawing her eyes out. He stared at the window, which had seen buildings and buildings from a distance. Valentino was still laughing, then smirking Leyka's fingers.
"Ley-and the train slowed down. They were silent and looking at each other. The typical sound of what a train is shrill with Valentino, kissing Leyka's lips by pressing on her throat. A chill runs through their bodies, their hearts crashing until their eyes warm and feel sore. They closed their eyes, and their hands bound each other, and hugged each other tightly.
The train will stop for 30 minutes, different when they are from Capetown, the train stops for an hour.10 minutes passed since stopping and Valentino did not leave the pageant. Valentino is increasingly melu*mat strong, as he takes a deep breath. I don't think he wants to let go. Slowly Leyka took off the link of their lips.
"Val, I'm sorry-I have to go" Leyka got up and Valentino followed. Valentino grabbed Leyka's jacket and she wrapped it in Leyka's body, like a daughter helped by her father wearing a jacket, as well as Leyka.
"Don't let the wind blow your body. You're getting thinner with me. Eat a lot, Ley" Valentino said as he zipped the jacket, saying Valentino stabbed Leyka in the heart. He held back so much that he would not cry in front of Valentino. While Valentino was smiling. The forced smile.
"Val-
"Foreign Miss, go and congratulations on your marriage" Valentino gently stroked Leyka's hair, their hearts deeply tormented. But looking back, it felt that the relationship could not be established.
"Val-
"Blessed, Ley" Valentino smiled again with rosy eyes, he hurriedly turned his body by wiping the corner of his eye, he walked towards the Leyka backpack where there was a seed of roses from Ludwig's Roses. Leyka's chest is getting claustrophobic looking at her. Valentino smiled and walked back to Leyka. He helped Leyka use the backpack on her back by hooking the strap of the backpack, which was coiled around her stomach. Leyka just complied with her chest tightening.
"Val-Thank you. Nice to meet you" Leyka reached out to shake hands but Valentino pulled the hand and Valentino hugged Leyka with the bag. Leyka returned the hug and held her water down by tightening her jaw. Valentino's embrace was tight, no matter the thorn of the rose tree scratched his hand, he tightened his embrace even more. Forget the pain and enjoy that parting hug.
"Val-- Dive--
"Don't say goodbye, Leyka Paquito. Since let's just say we never met" Leyka observed Valentino's hand being scratched as her hand re-wiped the corner of her eye by turning her back to Leyka. The wound was getting sicker, Leyka was unable to say a word. Always the words he wanted to express the stronger the stuck in his throat.
"Val-
"As if I'm going to drive you" Valentino grabbed Leyka's hand and pulled Leyka's suitcase near the door, then they walked out of Valentino's room, they went down the corridor of the carriage looking for the exit. Leyka set foot in Johannesburg.
On the side of the train door and on the side of the arrival gate at Johannesburg Station, they stood facing each other, they were silent for a moment because the tongue was very muddy.
"You won't be happier than me, because you'll always remember me" and Leyka smacked Valentino's chest still with her laugh. Valentinopun was seen laughing, although his chest was very tight, as was Leyka.
"When the first snow falls in Barcelona later this year - comes Val. Maybe I still remember you and I'll give myself a chance to remember you. If you don't come then don't blame me if I forget you forever. Because I'll get married after that"
"Can't you come to me in Switzerland?"
"Val, I hate Switzerland. I'm not gonna set foot in there"
"Why?"
"That reason doesn't matter now-I'm going to go. I had to catch my plane" when Leyka grabbed Valentino's suitcase, the man pulled Leyka's hand and hugged her. Leyka kissed Valentino's cheek and stroked Valentino's cheek with glassy eyes.
"Vaaa"
"Shm.. Leykaa!" quickly Valentino melu*mat lips Leyka. No matter the people passing around him, Valentino kept pressing his nape and Leyka's waist was very strong.
"Ley, I've missed you" whispered Valentino between kisses that seemed to suck the whole soul and body of Leyka. Until they have trouble breathing.
Leykapun release the handle of his suitcase and cupped his hands on both cheeks of Valentino, the answer to his current longing even before parting ways. Unfeeling, their tears fell from the corner of their eyes. As the kiss unravels they smile and wipe each other's tears. They re-hugged without much words, they inhaled each other the scent of their bodies, which would soon disappear from their sides.
The hug says many things, the hug says longing and love. The hug says sadness, heartache with daggers stuck very deep, a sense of dependence also needs each other even the hug says regret with a myriad of questions. Why would there be an encounter if we split up in the end? Why do we have to be this sick when the encounter is just a stranger like on the run? Is this destiny?
"Ley, I told you once. If you realize this is part of Fate, then run to me" they unraveled the hug when they noticed that in 15 minutes the train was leaving Johannesburg. Their hearts ached again, but they both insisted on dealing with each other.
"All right, Mr. Stranger. Go and your train will go!" with Leyka laughing as she pushed Valentino's body towards the carriage door, they threw their eyes at each other.
"Take care of yourself Leyka" Leyka simply smiled with her thumb out. On the doorstep they kissed again.
"Val, for the last time I asked, do you want to come down with me?" leyka asked after the tuby kiss.
"Ley, I have to work - isn't someone waiting for you in Barcelona?" hearing that left Leyka devastated again.
Pecun*dang! You will never sacrifice for me.. Nor will I expect you any more.. I won't remember that there's a man like you, Val..
"Hmmm.. You're right, Val.. Good bye Val. Take good care of yourself" Leykapun turned his body and walked away from the train door of The Blue Train.
"Hey Miss foreign! I said don't say goodbye!" peekkik Valentino, make Leyka upset with the name Miss Stranger.
"Remember every snowfall, Mr. Stranger. I'm in Barcelona! If you don't come this year then I'll get married and honeymoon in Italy. I hope you're not bothering me!" Valentino just laughed even though in his heart he was crying and also furious.
"Ley! I Love You Pretoriaaa!" Pekik Valentino is still on the doorstep.
"I Hate You, Pretoriaa!" Leyka turned her body towards Valentino and brandished her middle finger, Valentino laughed looking at her.
"I Love You So Much, Pretoriaaaa!" Valentino again exclaimed like a madman hoping Leyka would turn back, but his back and Leyka's footsteps moved further away.
Why my tears are falling.. I promise I won't cry, but why are my tears so hard to stop.. Val, I hate you.. Hating you because you don't want to sacrifice for me.. Val, I sacrificed my love.. It's something big.. Is this Love? Ihate you.. I'll forget you forever..
"Fu*ck You, Val!" despite not turning his head, Valentino was very happy when Leyka responded. Valentino had no idea Leyka was walking with tears falling all the way to the exit.
You don't want to look at Ley? Last time.. Come by.. Leykah.. Brutal girl.. You're not looking anymore..
"I'm waiting for you in Switzerland! I Love You Leyka!!" Valentino's screech is only on the middle finger by Leyka. Valentino stared at Leyka's back until the Spanish girl who made her heart break away. Then Leyka disappeared from his sight!
Val, I'm waiting for you.. When the first snow falls.. Will you come? I missed you, Val.. I want to look at you again.. When I look around, I'm afraid I miss you more.. I'm afraid of the weak.. Remember Leyka.. There is a life to be saved.. Val, I'm really jealous.. You'll be happy, while I don't know what will happen to my life. I must be tormented to miss you.. I will suffer because I love you so madly! No, Val, I don't want to get crazy..
"Walk.. I Love You Pretoria, I Love You More Ley.. You don't want to look around anymore" muttered Valentino by wiping his tears. Valentino hit the door and passed with a shunt Valentino back to his room. He threw his body on the sofa next to the window and kicked at the table.
Notwithstanding.. Fucking fox.. Shits..
While Leyka continued to walk by wiping her tears, she sat in a taxi that took her away from Johannesburg station.
"Tambo Airport, sir!" Leyka let out a long sigh, she stared at the street with her sadness. The cold AC of the car made his hands cold. He put his hand in his jacket pocket, but something inside made him furrow his eyebrows.
Did Valentino slip something.. What's his cell phone number..
A piece of paper was on his jacket, Leyka hurriedly picked it up and she widened her eyes!
