The Last Love of My Life
All this is my fault

Rifki also returned to wear his suit properly after Bayu finished treating it, although the incision was not so deep but enough to make people grimace in pain especially with the blood that was released.

"Rifki why are you doing this to Nadhira? Isn't he our best friend?" Bayu asked with no heart when he saw Nadhira hurt because of his own best friend.

"That's none of your business Bay".

"Rif you've known me since I was a kid, right? If you're in trouble just tell me, we'll have to face it together, don't think of me as your only Rif, but think of me as your best friend as well, the various problems we've been through together, do you not believe in me anymore Rif?"

"I really believe in you Bay, you're a friend and you're my best friend, how can I not trust you?"

"Then say Rif, you know what you're doing is hurting Nadhira so much, why did you do that to him?"

"I know, it hurts him so much, let him hate me because I don't want him to still hold feelings for me, let alone be reckless and endanger himself later, I don't know when my life will be and I don't want Nadhira to do anything stupid for me" Rifki replied.

"What do you mean Rif? I don't understand what you're saying at all".

"It's hard to explain, I don't know the original character and character of Syaqila yet, and I don't want her to know about Nadhira, I purposely told Raka to take her to that place, so that he hates me more and I don't want him to get involved in my problems later".

"Shaqila? Did you know anything about that girl? Why would he endanger Nadhira?".

"I just feel something strange about him, we just follow his game and don't make him feel suspicious, let alone know about Nadhira"

"Well, Rif, I know what you mean".

"I'm sure that Theo will take good care of her, Theo loves her very much and as long as she is happy with him, I will strive for it, with me doing this it will further make Nadhira hate me".

"Your love for Nadhira is so great Rif, you are even willing to do this, no one is able to see his loved ones along with others, but that does not apply to you Rif, he said, you're even willing to get hurt as long as the person you love lives happily".

"I'll do whatever it is Bay, because to me Nadhira's happiness and safety is far more important, and Theo is the right person to always be by her side in my place".

Rifki feels that Theo will really take care of Nadhira, because he is sure that Theo loves Nadhira very much and will do anything as long as Nadhira can be happy with him.

Rifki did not know what to do next, he was really disappointed in himself with what he had done to Nadhira, the attention he gives and the affection he does make him feel in a dilemma that does not know the end.

If he knew it would end up like this, he would never pay attention to Nadhira so Nadhira would not wish him too far and it would make him feel so hurt, the wound was so deep that no one was able to pull it out.

"Dhira be patient, I will try to find a way for the jewel to be destroyed even if it has to be at the expense of my own life, I will do that for you as long as you survive Dhira, he said, if we cannot be united in the world then I will pray that in the end we will be together forever" Rifki said.

As long as there is still a jewel attached to Nadhira's body, Nadhira's life will continue to be threatened because there will be many people who target the gem and will try to take it from Nadhira, however, if the gem is forcibly removed, Nadhira's life will be at stake.

If the jewel is not immediately destroyed then in the future Nadhira will always be pursued by people who want the gem to get immortality and supernatural power.

"What are you going to do after this Rif? How do you destroy it?" Ask Bayu who accidentally listened to Rifki's fumigation.

"By self-sacrifice" replied Rifki lightly.

"you mean? You want to kill yourself?"

"Yes ngak as well as Bay concept, you don't need to interfere with this, quickly take me to the forest that is close to the Red Rose village right now".

"What do you want?"

"I want to meet the spirit of someone there, who knows I can get a clue from there, a few days ago there arrived a figure who came to me, maybe he asked me to come to the village"

"All right, we're going to get there".

Bayu ordered Gengcobra's son who was currently driving to go the direction he had told, Bayu continued to guide him towards the forest which became the main road to be able to go to the Red Rose village.

After a while they had traveled to the end of the forest, Rifki immediately got out of the car and was immediately followed by all his men.

"You guys just wait here, I'll go in alone, I don't want you guys to be wretched for getting into that forbidden area".

"No Young Master, let us come to take care of you, how can we leave you in danger there" Reno denied.

"They won't be able to harm me Reno, you take it easy, only I can get in there safely, if you come with me then I won't be able to guarantee you'll be safe and come out alive from there".

"Let us take you to the gate of the Red Rose Rif village" Bayu said.

"No need, there will be many traps set up there, if I don't return until the sun rises tomorrow then you leave this place don't care about me or dare to look for me inside".

"But Rif, what if you're in danger there? So what should we say to your parents?".

"I trust you Bay and you have to trust me, whatever I'm going to face, never look for me, tell them I'm out of town".

"No Rif, it's too dangerous for you, how can we leave you in such danger Rifki".

"Whatever I do, I hope to find an answer on how to get the jewel out of Bay"

"Rifki, may Allah always protect you, friend, and provide a way out for you".

"Aamiin. I entrust Gengcobra's son to you Bay, and also please take care of Nadhira from a distance not to let Nadhira know".

"You take it easy Rif, I'll do my best for you, come back soon after you find what you're looking for"

"Yes Bay, I'll be right back after that".

"Rif's heart".

Rifki nodded and immediately rushed into the forest with a heart, Bayu and the others could only stare at his departure in silence while waving to Rifki.

They hope that Rifki will come out of the forest safely, no more words can come out of their mouths to stop the departure of Rifki.

"We will wait here, until Young Master comes out of this forest, if tomorrow he has not come out then I will go in to catch up with him" Bayu ordered.

"Good Sir".

*****

Rifki's departure from that place instantly created an empty space in Nadhira's heart, the room seemed endless, the feeling of loss was now enveloping his heart, Nadhira is eager to stop his departure from the place because he still loves Rifki, after knowing that on his knife there is drugs to make Nadhira worried about Rifki's condition.

"It's my fault I shouldn't have hurt him" Guman Nadhira dropped the small knife in his hand.

"Already Dhira, don't blame yourself, this is all his destiny, he has hurt your heart Dhira you better forget himself and live better than before".

"You're right Theo, somehow he turned that way on me".

Nadhira sighed, somehow fate really toyed with him, the person he trusted the most was now leaving while the person who was neglected by him was standing next to him.

"Have forgotten about it, and before you apologized to me, I've forgiven you long ago Theo".

"Thank you Dhira".

Nadhira again took the small knife and immediately closed it, the knife looks there is a glimmer of blood so it looks a little sticky, after which he put it back in his pocket.

"Why don't you clean Dhira's blood first?" Theo asked who saw Nadhira put a pen in his pocket.

"Let it be, this is Rifki's blood, I won't remove it or use it again, let this be proof of the wound he has given me".

"Dhira I know that, but letting a blood flow in the weapon is not good, later your little knife will be inhabited by supernatural beings and will ask for the blood of others as food".

"I know that, but this won't happen, because this is Rifki's blood".

Nadhira was so injured that he did not want to use the pen weapon because there was blood belonging to Rifki, although the blood would dry up by itself but Nadhira did not want to wash it.

The blood was the biggest wound for him and would always remind him of what Rifki had done to him, he felt very disappointed by Rifki's sudden change of attitude like that, without him realizing that Rifki did that because there was something.

"Whatever you want Dhira, just as you're calm it doesn't matter to me".

"I've misjudged someone, I think Rifki is a good person and best friend to me but it turns out she's my second wound after Papa".

"From now on forget her Dhira, she doesn't deserve this kind of you".

"You're right Theo"

"I will always be there for you, Dhira, and I will always take care of you"

"Thank you for being there for me all this time".

Theo nods to Nadhira, while Nadhira is only able to smile thinly even with full force to be able to do that, he felt very sad about what happened but he still insisted on smiling in front of Theo.

"I'm glad to see you Dhira, being your best friend is a fortune to me".

"You're praising Theo too much".

"I'm telling you the truth, Dhira, you're a good woman, even if you're angry you look scary".

"That's not true, probably because there's a demon controlling my anger".

"Whatever that reason, you're a great dhira".

*****

Hours passed quickly and the sky began to darken the members of the Gengcobra waiting for the arrival of Rifki from within the forest, but there was absolutely no sign of Rifki going out from there.

Whether what is done by Rifki at this time, Bayu and also the children of Gengcobra become increasingly anxious because it is moreover they have waited too long and there is no sign of the arrival of Rifki.

"Master, how is this? The Young Master hasn't appeared from inside yet" Vano asked.

"We just wait, I hope that he'll be fine, in a few hours the sun will rise, if he doesn't come back then I'll go in there to help him, you guys stay here and ask for help from the others".

"Good Sir".

After a long wait, but there is no sign that Rifki will return, all night members of the Gengcobra no one sleeps to wait for Rifki outside the forest, until the morning before, but Rifki has not come out.

"You go back to the headquarters, I'll go inside to check it out" Bayu said.

"But Master, how can we leave you and Young Master in there? Let us accompany you inside".

"That's not necessary" There was a soft and faint voice coming from within the forest.

Seen Rifki walk out of the forest with staggering steps and look so limp, Bayu who saw it immediately ran towards where Rifki was.

When Bayu had approached the body of Rifki hoyong and was about to fall on his knees but Bayu immediately caught his body and did not let Rifki fall.

"Rifki why are you?" Ask her in a panic.

"What am I doing" replied Rifki slowly.

"Your body's so hot, what's going on with you in there?"

Bayu immediately helped Rifki to stand up and put his neck Rifki's hand to immediately move him away from the place to the direction of his parked car without Bayu realizing that now Rifki was shedding tears.

With a full heart Bayu lay Rifki body in the seat of the car, Bayu saw both Rifki eyes that look so cute as if there will be so much burden that he is alone.

"Why are you sad Rif?"

"He said that there was only one way to be able to destroy the jewel of the Bay"

"That's a good Rif, that means there's still a chance to be able to save Nadhira, how is that Rif? Maybe I can help you".

"I wouldn't be able to do that Bay, I would never be able to do that".

"Why? Is it related to Nadhira's own life Rif?"

Rifki nodded in agreement to Bayu's words, "I must kill Nadhira with the xingsi heirloom keris I have in order for the jewel to disintegrate Bay, and I will never be able to do that, and I will never be able to do that, how could I kill the man I love Bay" Rifki's tears just escaped.

Bayu felt surprised by what he heard that, this was a very difficult choice and would not be able to be done by Rifki, he became very confused by the situation that Rifki was facing at this time, he was very confused by the situation that Rifki was facing, but that is the only way Rifki can destroy the demon gems in Nadhira's body.

Rifki feels so very disconnected there is with the situation he is facing at the moment, and that is what makes Rifki look very moody for now, he no longer knows what to do next, he will not let Nadhira die in his hands but he will not be able to see Nadhira who is continuously pursued by bad people who want to have the devil's jewel.

"There must be another way Rif, you can't just give up".

"I don't know what else to do Bay, do I have to take Nadhira's life? I was just afraid that fate was really happening, in the hands of us both the demon jewel and the xingsi heirloom keris would be destroyed, could that be the purpose we were both born with".

"Rifki, I've never seen you this weak, don't ever give up like this, there must be another way".

"One-way one I have to get away from Nadhira".
