The Tears of Ayanda
chapter 87. My brother, my beloved

A week has passed from an impromptu romantic proposal event conducted by Gio for Ayanda. Their relationship is getting sticky like a stamp. Gio's possessive nature sometimes makes Ayanda ashamed of herself. Especially if it is in the office, it is certain that he will be a whisper of employees.

Ayanda is in her room right now. He did not expect that his life path would be complicated like this. The man who he believed would be the lover of the afterlife turned out to be only created as a temporary stopover of his heart.

"May you be the last for me, Gi" he murmured.

He was staring at tall buildings from behind a window. Her eyes were fixed on the front, but her mind was instead reminded of her past with her ex-husband. For a long time he stood, without realizing it his hand touched his own chest. It hints at a deep pain.

"It turns out that the wound you scratched still leaves pain, I've tried to eliminate this pain but still feels like a new wound, still sore," he said slowly.

"It turns out that nine years is not enough to heal this bloodless wound" he added.

It did not feel like her tears were dripping, betrayal, sadness, fragility, pain were gathering together and swirling in her brain memory. Ayanda looked down deeply with tears flooding her face.

There was a man standing behind him. Then he walked quietly without a sound and stood right beside her. There was a clear sound of crying but slowly. Then Gio clasped his woman's hand without a word.

Ayanda looked at the side with a face bathed in tears. Gio only showed a smile towards him. Without any cue Ayanda hugged Gio tightly. Spilling all her pain in her tears. Gio simply tightened his embrace, letting his future wife cry in his arms.

After his lover was felt a little relieved, he invited Ayanda to sit on the sofa. Gio gathered in front of Ayanda who was still with his eyes closed.

"Never cry alone, there I will be a shoulder for you to lean on and also there is my hand to hold you when fragility comes to you again. Make me the focus of your life," Gio said with a clasping hand of Ayanda and stared at Ayanda's face inside.

"It still hurts, Gi," she replied.

Gio immediately hugged Ayanda's fragile body, trying to channel his calm to her so that she could slowly but surely forget every bad memory of her life.

"I promise you, I will always make you happy, dear" he said to Ayanda.

"Are you still unable to let go?" asked Gio who was already sitting under the sofa that Ayanda was sitting on.

"I'm sincere, it's just that the wounds that I've felt for years are still very painful" he replied.

"Never force to heal wounds that have not yet dried. Let your wounds heal and dry up with time" Gio replied.

Ayanda just smiled and cupped the handsome face of Giondra. "more dear to you, Gi," he said.

Gio just poked his lips. "can't you call me with the frills."

Ayanda fused her eyebrows together as if asking for further explanation.

"Call me baby, beb, mas, aa or whatever. Don't be Gu Ga Gi Gi, "he said with a cynical face.

Ayanda just laughed at Gio's request. His laughter seemed to have removed the heavy burden that he had been carrying. Gio looked at him with amazement. The fake laughter he had always shown had now been replaced with happy laughter.

"Why do you see me like that?" ask Ayanda astonished.

"You're so pretty with that kind of laugh. It's not Ayanda who always laughs falsely" he replied.

Ayanda smiled widely. "this is all thanks to you Brother Gi," he said.

This time it was Gio who frowned, staring at his lover sharply asking for more explanation. Ayanda was just laughing. He pinched Gio's nose.

"That's a dear call from me to you, Bang Gi" he explained.

Gio's face didn't seem to like such a call. She hopes to be called dear or mas as Ayanda calls her ex-husband.

"Kok I feel like a meatball, yeah. Called Brother," he said with a sullen face.

Ayanda was getting anxious to see the sulking face of her lover. He wants to chew on a handsome face and baby face Gio. Ayanda put her hand against Gio's neck, looking into his eyes deeply.

"Dad wants me to be your sister, so there's no harm in calling you brother. My dear brother," he said with a beautiful smile that curved perfectly from his tiny lips.

Gio laughed at the explanation from his lover. "it's up to you, the important thing is that you don't call me by name" he said.

The smiles of the two of them brimmed from their lips. The feeling of happiness is enveloping these two human beings.

The sound of the door being knocked from outside. Not long after a woman entered Ayanda's room.

"Sorry Mr. Giondra, there are files you have to sign now" Kinan said Gio's secretary.

Kinan approached Gio and Ayanda with a map. After arriving in front of his superiors, he handed the map containing important files with a seductive smile. Ayanda just looked at him cynically.

Gio focused on the files he was holding, while Kinan focused on looking at Giondra who was handsome to the maximum.

"Darling, can you spit a little? He said he wanted to go" Ayanda said with great emphasis. His words were able to awaken the attention of two people who were struggling with their respective minds.

Hearing Ayanda's words, Gio immediately stared at the woman. Gio understood very well that Ayanda was upset right now. He immediately put down his precious papers. His hand immediately pulled Ayanda into his arms.

"In a moment, baby," he said softly and kissed the tip of Ayanda's head.

Gio continued his reading with Ayanda leaning on his shoulder, tightly grasping Gio's hand as if locking Ayanda away from him. His secretary's previously seductive face had now turned lethargic. Actually Ayanda was also uncomfortable with his attitude like this. The twists and turns of his former household taught him many lessons. Now he is determined to be strong who is not defeated by the actor. Instead, he wants to destroy the actors on this earth.

"I don't like your secretary" Ayanda said.

Gio smiled broadly at the words of his lover.

"Okay, tomorrow I'm gonna fire him as my secretary" Javan Gio lightly.

Ayanda smiled full of victory, because she knew very well that Gio never messed with his words.

Their plan for the road was realized. They were sitting on a table by the window. With Ayanda who was beside Gio. Their orders have arrived. They enjoy their own food.

"Giondra," greeted someone with a spoiled voice.

Ayanda and also Gio looked to the origin of the voice. Gio just glanced at him lazily and Ayanda pretended not to care.

"May I join you?" ask Cantika who is none other than Giondra's former lover.

"We are already se ...."

"May, no one forbids," replied Ayanda who had cut off Gio's conversation.

The happy sparkle was clearly visible from Cantika's face. While Gio was looking at Ayanda with an annoyed face, he only raised his shoulders with a flat look.

"How are you, Gi," asked Cantika.

It was too unwilling for Gio to answer the question from the woman before him right now. He focused on continuing his eating.

"You remember, in this place you first met," said Cantika.

Ayanda just silently listened to the chatter of ex-lover from Giondra, who recently met at the concert Sheila On 7 in Singapore.

Actually Ayanda is also lazy and reluctant to eat at a table with Cantika who incidentally is a former lover of her lover. It's just that he wants to test Gio's loyalty and wants to prove Gio's point about the former.

The former is the past, not to be called back and made the future. Relationships that have run aground let it be a beautiful and bitter story that must be in the museum, not to be reunited.

It turned out that Gio's loyalty and speech were proven. He did not serve his ex who is sexier and also beautiful than Ayanda. There will be no actor if the man does not respond to the seductress. The actor is created because the woman and the man are equally willing.

"Darling, it's yuk. I'm not used to eating with people who talk a lot" Gio said with his mouth closed.

He immediately stood up, grabbed Ayanda's hand and held her tightly. He left his desk, which still left a lot of food. Cantika was only flabbergasted to see Gio's profoundly changed nature from the one he was once familiar with. The humorous Gio now turned cynical.

- In Indonesia -

Rion's car is parked in a small and beautiful yard. Yes, he just arrived in Bandung. The Mamah who was on the terrace was a little surprised by his eldest son. Rion kissed Mamah's hand and went straight into her room.

The Mamah let her eldest son enjoy his solitude. If later Rion is ready to tell a story, surely the Mamah he is looking for.

Rion went into his room, he sat in his chair. Look for a mini book that he often used to write about himself there.

Bandung, 01-08-2020

This time I am not selfish.

I made peace with my heart and mind.

Let our story end here, let our relationship change but my love for you will never change.

I will let the time bring and take away this love and love. I just want you forever in my heart until the end of my life.

For some reason, seeing your proposal yesterday my heart was like slashed with a sharp knife, sore and sick. We've been apart for a long time, but I don't think I've ever changed.

Forgive all my mistakes, my stupid behavior must have left a wound until now. Until you left and didn't come back and now I'm drowning in a sea of painful wounds.

You can never be replaced by anyone, and I don't want to find a partner anymore. Let me close the door of my heart, for I only want to love you in silence, until death picks me up. There is no more passion in my life. I am like a statue, shaped but lifeless.

I will always love you, Ayanda Rishani.
