The Imperfect Story
Chapter 29

A day ago, Rey approached Ismail when the man was out of the company. It turns out that Rey was deliberately waiting for him in the parking lot because he wanted to talk about the past with the person who became his best friend first.

"Rey? Long time no see, Bro!" Sapa Ismail when he saw Rey, then wanted to hug the men, but Rey rewinded her body because she was reluctant.

"Yes, we haven't met for seven years. You now look different." Rey said with eyes that followed Ismail's appearance from top to bottom.

"Well that's it, there's no way I'm going to stick around." Ismail chuckled to himself, while Rey only smiled pedar.

"Better burik than cool because of the result of robbing someone else's property!" lirih Rey cursed.

"Yes, Rey? What did you say?" ask Ishmael for not hearing it.

"Ah, it's okay.  How about we hang out for a while, coffee first maybe?" reyhan.

"Oh, can, can. Let's just copy there, let's not go around here and there." Ishmael pointed to a contemporary coffee shop not far from where they were.

They walked down the road on foot because the distance was approximately only fifty meters. Once there, they ordered a glass of Americano and a glass of Cappucino.

"How are you doing now? Are you married?" ismail asked with a smile, making Rey's heart warm. Ismail may ask something he shouldn't ask. I really don't know shame.

"Do you want to show off or insinuate?" Rey did not want to lose expression, she gave the sweetest smile.

"I mean, Bro?" ask Ismail again because he does not understand the meaning of Rey's question.

"Do you still have the face to ask the person you betrayed?"

"The one I betrayed? Come, Bro. To the point alone, I can't understand that you're convoluted like this."

"You still dare to ask, who else if it wasn't me and Kia that you betrayed?" obviously Rey while staring fiercely at his interlocutor.

"What does this have to do with you, Rey?" Ismail asked casually, sipping his drink calmly.

"You know what, Vita was my girlfriend? Why did you stab me in the back? You're my best friend, Mail!" Screeched Rey with fiery face water.

"Because I love Devita." said Ismail flatly.

"Love Devita and also have Zaskia? You're greedy, Mail! For your love, are you willing to hurt three best friends?" sergeant Rey.

"I married Zaskia because of Devita." he said without changing his expression, he was still as calm as before.

"Bulshit!" maki Rey clenched her hands.

"What are you angry for, Rey. Those two are none of you, aren't they?" the question seemed to be offended from Ismail.

"Devita's my ex-boyfriend you took and Kia's my best friend!" answer Rey with a sniff.

"But they're not yours!" Ismail smiled smirk.

"You know, Rey. Why did Vita choose to leave you? Because you are poor, you have nothing. Vita's mother likes me too, so we can get married. Relax, I'll take care of him for you." he added after that sip his drink for the last time and stood up from the coffee shop, leaving Rey whose heart was still at war.

"Yes, for now continue to be arrogant, Mail. You just wait for the karma to befall you. You should not forget that a persecuted person can reverse what you have right now" he said softly while staring at his completely untouched drinking glass.

"That's, Kia. Not the explanation I get, even some words that seem to insult me." Rey said after telling a long story.

"I didn't think it was right that Ishmael was the worst man in the world." Kia.

"In a moment that status will change to the former." sidelines Kia did not accept.

"I'm waiting for him." Rey smiled at the road.

"You mean?" Kia scrunched her forehead.

"Ah, I'm reading the writing on the back of the body of the angkot." Rey's alibi actually did not see any of the angkot passing by.

"Basic, I love to prank!" grouse Kia slowly.

"You're asking 'nih, the story?" teh Rey while looking at Kia's face.

"No!" sahut Kia pretended to be firm, his face turned in any direction.

"That's why you're pouting?" added Rey, Kia finally relented and smiled.

"Relange, Rey. Yeah, let's take me home!" whine while standing.

"All right, let's go." Rey stood up and walked to his car.

Rey escorted Zaskia back to the hotel, remaining for another day of her stay at the hotel. Kia can only resign, if God gives fortune then he will soon get a place to live. If not, maybe he will return to the slum that Wati gave him.

"Thank you, Rey." said Kia after arriving at the hotel.

"Together, Kia. Don't hesitate to call me if you need to. I'm leaving right away, bye!" saying without getting out of the car, Kia just waved and thought it seemed like Rey was in a hurry.

Meanwhile, in a hurry Ismail entered his residence, circling his gaze around the corner of the room looking for the figure of the woman who was reported to want to take his biological child.

He ran up the stairs and rushed to open the door to Zayn's room. Ismail sighed in relief when he saw the tiny body curled up on the bed in a sobbing state.

"Mama, Zayn wants to see Mama." she muttered softly but could be heard in Ismail's ear looking at her from the door.

"I'm sorry, son. I'm not a good father to you. If your mother had not rejected me, it would have been an accident and a complicated ending like this would not have happened to you." murmured Ismail in his heart and then closed the door again.

"I once said a sentence to my best friend, that if a soul mate will not go where if you love him as sincerely. Perhaps, God has now answered the sincerity of his heart. Perhaps also, God is now keeping me away from him because I'm sincere to him only half-heartedly." a status Rey made on the green app on her phone.

Ting ...

Rey's phone rang a sign that a message was coming in. The young man wiped his phone screen to see who sent him the message.

"They are united not because of the desire of one of them wants to be together. But they are united because of the destiny of God that accompanies it. Because God's destiny is also me and himself separated. For that, together or separated all because of His permission." the contents of the status reply he made.

"Cie who is sincere." reply Rey by adding emot stick out the tongue to tempt the opponent chatnya.

"I've been sincere for a long time, why drag on in grief.  Don't you think you haven't forgotten it?" reply by going black.

"Just take the blame, watch out for you, Kia!" reply Rey by giving some angry emotes behind her.

"For the boss!" reply Kia gave emot two hands clenched.

A happy light flashed on the faces of the two. Only because they have the same story, both betrayed, they can mingle to become more and more familiar. If the two used to be shy when they met because there was a heart that must be guarded, now they strengthen each other.
