The Love That Reunites
Chapter 13

The young man wanted to kiss Clara, but...

Buughhh

Reyhan punched the young man to the ground. The young man got up and wiped the corner of his bloody lips.

Clara looked towards Reyhan. Reyhan's face was terrible. Flat without expression.

Reyhan pulled Clara's hand and took her away from the place.

Clara let go of her hand, and they stopped walking. Reyhan turned his back on Clara, because she was the one walking in front.

Clara looked at Reyhan's back with all the questions lodged in her head.

"Why is my brother here?"

"Whatever I am"

Reyhan didn't turn his body around either.

"Sister why wear all black? I think I know not"

"It's none of Lo's business"

Clara was upset to hear Reyhan's answer.

"Son't follow me, is he?"

Reyhan was silent, he turned around and looked at Clara with an incomprehensible look.

"One thing I can tell Lo. Stay away from Devan because he's not a good young man. Someday you'll regret knowing that son of a bitch"

Reyhan immediately left. Clara was sculpting, she was trying to digest every word Reyhan said.

"What does Reyhan mean? Why did he say Devan wasn't a good young man? Is he jealous?" Murmured Clara guessed hell.

"Clar!"

Clara turned around and found Devan smiling as she walked towards him. The young man invited him to come home soon because it was too late.

In the car, they both remained silent. Clara still thinks of Reyhan's every utterance, while Devan drifts away with her own thoughts.

"Em, Ra"

Finally there was a voice that broke the silence in the car.

"Yes, Dev" replied Clara.

"Ra, you haven't answered my confession yet" Devan said.

Clara thought for a moment, and she realized that she had not answered Devan's love confession because of the commotion Reyhan made.

Clara was silent, while Devan was waiting for his answer.

'Do I have to accept it? But what about Reyhan's brother? I'm still under agreement with him. Just listen to Mita and Santi. We were just pretending to be dating. But, what if this relationship ends the same way I did with Wildan? It's too early to be in a relationship because we just got to know each other'

Clara looks worried, she doesn't want to make the same mistake she made when she accepted Wildan.

At first it is certain that the person who likes us will look romantic, kind and considerate to get our heart. But after he has got what he wants, his true nature will come out and maybe his love will also decrease and he turns to another heart, if from the beginning he was just playing. Only those who truly love us will survive.

After considering his decision, he finally chose to accept Devan.

"Dev_"

Just now he's about to talk, but it's been cut by Devan.

"I know Ra, it's hard to accept me because we're so close. We've only known each other for a few days, but really, I'm really in love with you Ra. I will accept whatever your decision is. But I won't give up on getting your heart."

Devan stopped his car. His eyes stared fixedly at Clara.

"So, will you be my girlfriend?" Ask Devan expectantly.

"Sure I want to." Clara smiled, she was very confident with Devan.

Devan reflexes immediately hugged Clara, her heart was very happy.

Clara who could be treated like that was shocked and did not return Devan's embrace.

The conscious Devan instantly let go of his embrace. "Sorry Ra, reflexes"

"Sans aja"

They both joked and laughed to vent the excitement they felt.

In Clara's heart pray, may her relationship with Devan go smoothly, and may Reyhan not be angry with her.

Elsewhere, Reyhan was riding his bike at high speed breaking the silence of the night. The stretch of road makes Reyhan more eager to advance his motorbike.

Maybe his body was riding a motorcycle, but his mind kept on clara. These few days he did think about that sweet girl often. He felt that something made him feel attached to the girl.

Reyhan pulled the gas very fast to vent all his emotions. He really doesn't understand why he should be angry when Clara is shot by Devan. Didn't he say he didn't really like Clara?

!!!!

The sound of the motor is deafening for anyone who hears it.

"Whoi!! If the road see see. You want to die, huh!! If Lo wants to die, mending jump from sono bridge!!"

A motorist scolded him. After being satisfied, the driver drove the motor again.

Reyhan was still silent on his bike. He almost had an accident if the driver had not braked. Reyhan had indeed suddenly appeared from the intersection at high speed.

Reyhan got off his bike. He's sitting on the sidewalk.

"Hehhh" There was a sigh coming out of Reyhan's mouth that calmed his heart a little.

"I may not be healed. There's no way Clara can heal me after all these years of my numbness. I just don't want him to hang out with another guy while he's still under agreement with me. It must be because of that, yes it is" Reyhan tries to evade the fact that he has actually started to like Clara.

"But why did it feel so tight when that guy shot Clara. They must be here by now, damn it!!" Reyhan smacked his chest to relieve the agonizing sense of tightness.

"Aarr!!!" Reyhan shouted to vent his emotions.

"Gue had to find out who that young man was. From his perspective, it seems that he is not a good person. Don't let Clara get hurt because of that jerk" Reyhan rode his bike again and drove through the silence of the night.

Clara was still pensive thinking about every single event that happened today. His eyes did not want to be closed even though he had been forced.

From his encounter with Ayunda, Devan's love statements at the restaurant and Reyhan's remarks that left him confused.

"Hehhh, what was my decision to make nerima Devan really huh? But, my instincts tell me he's a good guy. But said brother Reyhan.." Clara was upset and took a pillow to cover her face.

"Hadeh, can die me if my face is covered by a pillow" Clara threw the pillow to the floor.

"Clara, go first. If this is the right decision, then everything will be fine. If this decision is wrong, then God will show you the right way." Clara gave advice to herself.

Tick tick tick tick

The time had already shown at 1pm, but Clara had not yet fallen asleep either.

"Hadeehh, I can't sleep, why the hell?" pissed Clara.

I don't know why Reyhan's shadow suddenly appeared. Clara still vividly remembers when Reyhan kicked the table, punched the perverted young man and when Reyhan said to stay away from Devan.

"Do I have to believe Reyhan's brother?" Clara Mumbled.

Clara held her chest "Why does this heart hurt when I saw Reyhan's gaze earlier, did I start to like him? No way, Clara Clara, remember she wouldn't have liked Lo. Lagian Lo is also the same Devan right"

Clara was still holding onto her chest with a raging feeling.

Sleepiness began to attack and Clara unconsciously fell asleep soundly.

*********

Kriiiiing kriiiiing

The time for school has come. All the students flocked out of the school gate.

It's been a week Clara and Reyhan have never met again. Whether intentionally or not.

Without Clara noticing, Reyhan had been watching her from afar. Both during the flag ceremony and in the school cafeteria. I don't know, his eyes don't want to escape from Clara's pretty face.

Clara, Mita and Santi walk down the school corridor. The three of them were joking. Clara had already told her two best friends about her relationship with Devan. Of course his two best friends are happy because Clara can finally move-on as well.

From the opposite direction, Reyhan and Dimas were also walking through the school corridor.

Step by step Clara and Reyhan's distance was getting closer. Until they finally meet.

Reyhan did not stop and continued walking.In fact, he did not say hello. Reyhan's face is icy cold at the North Pole. Flat without expression.

Clara paused and looked at Reyhan's back which had already drifted away.

"Why Ra?" Ask Santi who stopped too.

Mita also stopped and stared in the direction Clara was looking at. "Oh, brother Reyhan turned out"

"What happened to Reyhan's brother?" Ask Santi.

Santi and Mita looked at Clara.

"Nothing" replied Clara.

Clara chose to walk again, followed by her two best friends.

"Eleh, say I miss you. Remember the word Dilan, do not miss, heavy. Let Abang aja" said Mita.

"Truly, anyways miss not to be held, ntar bisulan" said Santi.

"Hii, who said I miss you, no. Just serem aja wriggling the face of Reyhan's brother who is like a possessed person" elak Clara. He was happy to see Reyhan again. Although he had to be disappointed because Reyhan did not greet him.

"Pake snarls again" said Mita.

The three of them reached the gate and parted ways because Clara had to work part-time.

Before parting, Santi advised her. "Ra, if Lo likes Devan then keep it up. But if you are not comfortable or not reg again with him then let go. Don't push yourself too hard just to move on from that new animal species. And if you already have the same feelings Reyhan, then say so. Don't let you regret it someday. And one more thing, Lo same Devan only know a few days, so Lo must be careful and find out what the real Devan looks like. Don't let the fate of Lo's love be like a new animal species."

Clara simply nodded her head in a sign of understanding with all Santi's words.

In his heart he confirmed Santi's words. He and Devan know each other. But, he disagrees with the words of Santi who says that he has started to have a sense with Reyhan. That can't be the case, because Clara knows her limits, just as a paid boyfriend.

Soon the ojol ordered by Clara came. Then, the ojol takes Clara to the restaurant where she works.

At school, Reyhan invites Dimas to speak with one eye. There's something important he wants to say.

"Dim, I'm asking you to help Lo, help me keep an eye on this guy. Find out anything about this guy, and if there's any information tell me." Reyhan said while showing Devan's photo on his phone. He picked it up silently while at the restaurant that day.

"Hem, it's not that he's the guy who fatted Lo's girl that day" Dimas guessed.

Reyhan nodded.

"Oh, Pantesan Lo told me to watch this guy. You're afraid of Lo girls cheating on you, right?" guess Dimas again.

Unknowingly Reyhan nodded again. After realizing that he immediately denied it. "No, I'm just worried that this guy isn't a good guy and that Clara could get hurt"

"Oh, so it's true that she's Lo's girl. Her name is beautiful, as pretty as her. Pantesan Lo likes him" Tempta Dimas.

"Not Dimaaas" Reyhan annoyed.

"Eleh, say yes. I've always had your mergokin kiss*n. hihihi" Kekeh Dimas.

Reyhan's face turned red, that's not how it happened. But, he also could not deny it, because when viewed from the position of Dimas, he and Clara were indeed seen kissing*n.

"The Red Lo deh. Anyway, Lo keep an eye on that guy. Let Clara do my business"

"Yes. Where might also Lo give me to the girl Lo. Can bonyok ni face" replied Dimas.

Reyhan only shook his head to hear the words of his best friend. He chose to leave Dimas.

Dimas soon overtakes Reyhan. "Lagian Lo just wanted to talk to the class gini pake all. Can be in the parking lot earlier or where the cake"

"intentionally"

'So I can see Clara up close' He continued inwardly.

Reyhan smiled. Actually he wanted to say hello to Clara, but, that wasn't his style. He just shut up and passed Clara alone, after all he was still angry about the incident at the restaurant.
