The Injured
The Imaginary

"How, Dit?" gio asked when Radit had just come down from Echa's room.

"The atmosphere is very different, Om. So, you have to be patient and you have to keep Echa happy. Forgetting what ever hurt him" Radit explained.

"It's a good thing that you're back again" Ayanda added.

"Radit forgot, Echa was a chocolate chip so go back. Uh, that's his son." Radit just shook his head.

"Om, Auntie can Radit ask you something?" ask Radit doubtfully.

"Ask," said Gio.

"Sorry before, was Echa okay when Aunt separated from her father Echa?"

Radit's question makes Ayanda speechless, she still remembers what Echa said. "Echa's fine, Mah."

"What does she say is fine it's the opposite?" ask Ayanda.

Radit smiles. "It could be like that, Auntie. Aunty's farewell makes her afraid to get into a relationship. She was afraid of failure as much as her parents, and when she felt betrayal it caused quite a deep trauma."

Gio gently rubbed his wife's shoulder, he was sure Ayanda would definitely blame her.

"Now, make her happy. Never ask or talk about your relationship first. Before he comes out to Om and Aunt. When he's ready to tell Auntie, it means that a little of his trauma is gone."

"Thank you Radit, keep a close friend to the princess, Om. And heal the wound," said Gio.

"As much as possible Radit will heal Echa's wounds." Gio just smiled, Radit's speech had a different meaning.

Next morning.

"Ah, i*d. Why do I have to keep him again? Galua's eyes were swollen, right," said Echa annoyed to himself.

A smile as bright as this morning Echa showed it to her parents. Ayanda and Gio looked at him fixedly. Echa is wrong.

"What's your eye, brother?" ask Ayanda.

"Night cry, Mah. Watch a Korean drama" he replied, chuckling.

Ayanda did not ask too deeply. He knows what's really going on. With Echa still covering everything, it means the pain in Echa's heart is still there.

Before Echa entered the school area she took a deep breath first. The news of him would still sound very loud. Apparently true, the clattering of his footsteps caused whispers from other students.

Echa sighed harshly when she was already sitting on her stool. "Feel the way in hellfire."

"Still on their noise?" Echa only answered with a nod to the question from Sasa.

"Prophey, Chut."

Echa took out the chocolate in her bag. Echa smiled when she saw the unusual chocolate she was eating.

"Let's try a new flavor."

That speech made Echa switch from silver queen to purple-plastic chocolate. And it tastes better.

The two brands of chocolate likened to Riza and Radit. Riza the silver queen and Radit are purple-plastic chocolates.

In the past, Echa liked Riza and now does Echa like Radit?

The rest hour has arrived, Echa, Sasa and Mima headed for the school cafeteria. It's definitely a lot of circumstances.

"What do you want to eat?" ask Sasa.

"The other cave wants siomay" replied Echa.

"Samain deh, there can be an empty bench noh," said Mima while pointing to one of the uninhabited tables.

Sasa ordered siomay while Echa and Mima sat in an empty place. It turned out that Tere and Riza who had just come, were sitting at one table with Echa.

Mima nudged Echa's hand, but Echa was still focused on her phone screen.

"Chut." Echa looked towards Mima who gave the code through the glances of her eyes.

Echa's eyes met with Riza's eyes who had been staring at Echa from the side. Echa's eyes still imply sadness. And Echa immediately cut off their gaze.

"Wanna move?" Echa shaking.

Echa ate the siomay very unappealingly. Moreover, Riza's eyes that could not be separated looked at him fixedly.

"Neng Echa," call Mr. Muh the school gate guard.

"Yes, sir." One table that sat with Echa stared at Mr. Muh.

"There's a deposit." Mr. Muh gave me some purple-wrapped chocolate bars.

"From the psychic he said," said Mr. Muh again.

Everyone laughed at Mr. Muh's words, only Riza was flat-faced and cold.

"Thank you, sir."

"Thank you."

"As my apology, today I can't take you and pick you up."

"It's okay, the driver picked me up, really."

"I know you're in a bad mood. I hope that chocolate changes your mood."

"Basar cenayang."

"I closed it, yes. Bye."

"Bye."

Echa's lips were still smiling even though her phone had already entered her pocket. Riza looked at him with wounds, and so did Tere. Tere knew exactly who the psychic was.

"Get good, sweet," Sasa's tease.

"Enak dong eat it again," ledek Mima.

"Yes dong, appetizing," answered Echa with a laugh followed by Mima and Sasa.

Intentionally Echa said that, it is undeniable that his heart still hurts. And the presence of Radit was able to heal his wounds bit by bit.

Echa moved from her seat, and so did Riza. In the deserted passageway, Riza pulled Echa's hand until Echa's steps came to a halt.

"You're dating her?" Very intimidating question.

"What's your same business?" question back Echa is full of emphasis.

"I don't like it" said Riza.

"Who are you? Don't miss dong ngaca!" Echa Sentak.

Riza's hand started to release Echa. Staring at the Echa bead with a deep sense of guilt.

"I'm sorry, El."

"Nasi is already porridge. The destroyed will never return again as before" explained Echa and passed away leaving Riza.

A heart that has been wounded may be healed for a long time. Echa tried to heal his wound however, Riza always came to him.

Echa sat in her chair, leaned back and closed her eyes. I hope his heart will be strong in the face of this.

Ting! Indicates that a message has entered Echa's phone.

"So he's bothering you, tell me. Let me do it online."

"Good idea 😀"

"Don't be sad, remember many people who love you including me."

Echa frowned as she read the final sentence of the message Radit had sent.

"But lie😝"

Echa laughed at the emoticons behind her.

I am grateful that you are always there for me. Strengthened me in my sick condition.

Radit stared at the screen of his phone and cursed himself because he had lost his own feelings for Echa.

"Stupid, stupid, stupid" he murmured.

"Since when have you been a pinter?" rifal's taunts on Radit.

Rifal is Radit's second brother, and he prefers to run his father's company. Unlike Radit who chose to be a psychologist, the work is almost the same as his father. It helps to heal someone.

"Gapain you're here?" ask Rifal.

"Help cave dong, brother. Tell Papih not to send the cave to London" whined Radit.

"It's not your ideals, yes," said Rifal.

"Then, now it's a different direction of the cave, brother."

"Is it because of your patient's chick?"

Radit's eyes widened perfectly. "Know where you are?"
