The Tears of Shafira
CHAPTER 41

“Shafira?” he said while putting his phone near Renata. Then, he ran towards the direction where his eyes were only on him.

“Hai! Riyan! Where are you going?” renata shouted as he saw Riyan running away.

“Wait a minute, Mom! I'll take my diamonds!”

Riyan's words, made the middle-aged mother think hard, while continuing to pay attention to where her son ran to look for the diamond he meant.

Riyan had been standing in front of the woman he had long missed, it turned out that now he looked more beautiful and his body was more contained. Unlike the last time they met, Riyan was more and more fascinated by the beautiful face that Shafira had.

Beauty that comes from the heart is not from the thick powder that is used.

"Riyan! " Shafira was shocked by a man who was now standing before her.

After her divorce from Erick, Shafira accidentally secludes herself and shuts herself away from people who were once present in her past. Because he did not want to continue to trouble them all, he preferred to live alone in another city to be able to rearrange his heart that had been destroyed.

This time he was getting used to his new life and new surroundings, he sold all the relics of his parents except the house.

Shafira started her small business selling clothes that she designed and sewed, and sold online.

Within five months he had already managed to develop a venture, this time he had actually struggled on his own.

The pain and disappointment he received in the past, paid off already with his success with a short period of time.

At first he only rented a shop that was not too broad and sold all his works and can be seen offline as well, it turns out that the work created by Shafira is much in the interest of the upper middle class people.

So this time he was invited to the wedding anniversary of one of the customers held at this place.

Really Shafira feels very happy to come to the number one event in this city, and this is thanks to the hard work and success she got.

"Shafira, where have you been all this time. I'm almost desperate to find your whereabouts, even the social media you have is not active. Did you intentionally stay away from me? " Riyan said as she stared fixedly at the face of the woman she missed so much.

At first he saw the figure of the wife in Shafira, so he was interested in approaching but as time went on. Riyan is attracted to Shafira not because it is similar to mending his wife but there is another side that is not found from any woman.

"I'm not going anywhere" Shafira answered with a smile on her lips, so that her beautiful face emanated perfectly.

"Why can't I call? keep living now where? how are you doing? " many questions are thrown from Riyan's lips, so Shafira is confused to have to answer the question where it used to be.

"A lot of your questions, I have to answer what "

"I'm sorry for all that, I accidentally didn't activate the old phone number. Because you want to focus on a new life and organize your heart to be better prepared to face the next life. You know it too! my state at that moment" Shafira said as she turned her gaze in another direction.

"Why should it disappear, I am ready to accompany you under any circumstances. And I'm also not ready to answer all the children's questions about your whereabouts, they're little kids who miss a mother so much. And they found it in you" said Riyan, staring fixedly at Shafira's face.

"Because there's no other choice but to go far"

"From now on I won't let you, get away from me again. I have lost you enough and am tormented by endless longing. Every afternoon I always look at Dusk in the hope that you will return tomorrow like Dusk that never forgets to return"

Riyan's words really warmed Shafira's heart, all this time she had never felt in her proper treatment a woman who wanted to get romantic words and good treatment.

Just hearing Riyan say that, her tears were no longer able to stand.

"You really miss me? " ask Shafira with eyes filled with clear liquid.

Unexpectedly this meeting with Riyan in this way, even though the person that Shafira avoids other than Ardan.

It was not that Shafira did not know thank you for what Riyan did, but that she did not want to continue to depend on anyone. So that he can live independently and stand on his own feet.

Shafira also does not forget the kindness of Riyan and Ardan, but she also wants to escape from the shadows of her past.

Shafira did not expect that Riyan would miss her like this, even though they were only as patients and doctors who treated her while she was in the hospital.

The twins also felt the loss of Shafira, but only a few times they met.

Before leaving, Shafira is eager to meet Zain and Zian, but her intentions are undone when remembering the twins' father is Riyan.

"I really miss you, why are you crying? Later people thought I was the one who hurt you" Riyan said as he wiped Shafira's tears with his thumb.

"Thank you for being the first to miss me, I don't think anyone will miss me"

"From now on, never disappear without news, because on the other hand there will be someone who is tormented longing" said Riyan while bringing Shafira into his arms.

For some reason Shafira's heart and brain are not in line, her sane brain says release the arms of a man who is none of you. But his heart said, it turned out to be very comfortable in the arms of a figure like Riyan.

After a long time, Shafira's sane brain is dominant and she tries to release Riyan's burly hand that holds her body.

"Sorry, I miss your presence too much" said Riyan misbehaved, really he could not control his longing for Shafira.

"It's okay" Shafira replied as she turned her face the other way.

After a long time they talked and in the end Riyan invited Shafira to meet his two children and the Mama.
