Two Twins Separated
32 | MEETINGS

“Vian, apparently here. What brought you here?” ask her father who suddenly came. Vian turned around.

“Nothing, Dad. I was just looking around.”

“Dad thought you were trying to disturb the girl,” her father said as he pointed at the black-coated girl.

Vian. “Of course not. I already have a boyfriend. Where might I want to tease a girl just carelessly. Dad is-just there.”

His father laughed a little. “Good. Coincidentally we are in Semala, want to take a walk first?” bargain father. Vian nodded, with pleasure. “So brother called, he asked to buy goat milk in Semala. I don't know what it's going to use for.”

“Good. I heard there's a traditional themed shopping mall here. Want to look there?”

“Can only.”

The question of who the girl is is huge. In the car, Vian kept thinking about it. The girl's figure was reflected in his mind. “Dad, I saw a tomb of a man named Alfred. Do you know him?”

His father thought for a moment. “Alfred? I don't really know him. But I've heard his name. I don't know when and where.”

Vian sighed. He could not find any clues from his father. He pulled the phone out of his pants pocket, then swiped the phone screen. He pressed a contact on his phone. “True. I think only Kevin knows the lead. I should try asking him.”

Vian typed a message for Kevin.

Via : “Vin. It's me, Vian.”

Kevin : “Ih, can my phone number from where?”

Vian : “Indeed I should tell you?”

Kevin : “Of course. I feel something suspicious about you. Yesterday you hugged me, now suddenly send me a message. Don't fuck with me. I'm not your taste!”

Vian was surprised to get a reply from Kevin.

Vian : “Hey, I'm still normal. Still normal!”

But the next message Kevin didn't reply to. Vian snorted an annoyed breath. “Kevin suck. Tomorrow you have to interrogate me,” he muttered.

Along with that, the car stops right in front of the gate that says “Traditional Market”. Setting foot there was different from Shomba. In Semala it turns out there are still those who hold traditional markets. The traditional smells have been smelled. But once entering the gate, Vian seemed to see a more similar place referred to as a festival, not a traditional market. A crowd of people filled the place.

Vian's father gave him some money. “Buy whatever you want. Dad has a business for a minute.”

Vian simply nodded, letting his father go without showering him with a few questions first. He looked around, there was something interesting. He no longer even looked at the road. From the opposite direction, a girl was stirred up. He accidentally nudged Vian who also did not see the road.

Vian. “Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't accidentally.”

The girl fell. “No. I was wrong. I'm sorry,” he said softly. Her voice was similar to the girl she had met at the funeral not too long ago. But her clothes looked different.

Vian stretched out his hand, intending to give help. “No problem. I help you stand up,” he said.

Slowly, the girl raised her head. Vian was surprised to find the girl's face. His face was no stranger. So surprised that he said nothing. “His face... This face is the face of Reva,” he said inwardly.

The girl grabbed Vian's hand. While Vian was still dumbfounded by what he had just witnessed.

“Emm. And also sorry for what just happened.” He hurried away without letting Vian say a word. Vian speechless.

“What kind of situation is this? He...He is similar to Reva,” he muttered. He looked down, back to his feet.

Right next to his feet was a gold bracelet that was given a rope, just like the one he had assembled for Reva. Vian grabbed the bracelet. He was even more surprised when he saw on the side of the bracelet there was a name, “ERV”.

“Dia... She is Erva?” thought. Without wasting any more time, he immediately rushed to look for the girl earlier. It traverses every place in the traditional market. His head turned to the right and left inexhaustible in search of the girl. “At a glance the girl is gone. Where is he?”

“Oh, Erva, this time you come again. Oh yeah, are you healthy?” ask another girl. Vian's sharp ears quickly searched for the source of the sound. His eyes are sweet. He could find the girl again, not far from her.

The girl was silent for a moment. “I'm all right. Only, the doctor said my trauma was difficult to remove. Maybe I won't be able to recover,” he replied.

Vian walked up to them. He touched the girl's shoulder from behind. Feeling surprised by someone, the girl turned around immediately. He was surprised to see Vian. “You were?”

“Wah, your taste is good too, Va. Is she your boyfriend?” ask the other girl.

“Rani, don't talk carelessly!” snapped it.

Vian smiled forcefully, shaking his head. “No, you misunderstood. Actually I came here because of this.”

Vian showed the gold bracelet in his hand. The girl immediately realized it. He immediately checked his neck, there was nothing.

“What is this yours?” ask Vian again. The girl stared at him for a long time, until she finally nodded.

“Ya,” the answer is short, still with a soft voice.

Now turned the dumbfounded Vian towards him. “Ah, so. Looks like this thing fell when we collided. So I'm looking for you to give it back. Accept this.” Vian thrust that thing.

“Te-Thank you. I didn't even realize this thing was falling. Thank you once again for giving it back to me,” he said quickly.

Vian smiled at him. “OK. I accidentally saw the inscription on the bracelet. So your name is Erva?” ask Vian. The girl nodded slowly.

“Either by coincidence or what, I guess we met many times today. I saw you last night at Semala's funeral,” Vian said.

The girl named Erva looked back at him quickly. “I didn't see you. But I did go to the funeral.”

“Ah, so. If it's like that..” Vian extended his hand towards Erva. “My name is Alvian, you can call me Vian.”

Erva fell silent, not directly replying to her handshake. “Why did you tell me your name?” ask him innocently.

“Because I know your name, you need to know my name. So we're both even. Isn't that right?” Erva thought for a moment, then nodded. She shook hands with Vian.

“Don't forget, my name is Rani. Oh yeah, I've never seen you before. Are you new here?” rani asked interrupted their introductory session.

“Oh, if that, I'm from Shomba. I came here with my father on a pilgrimage. I came here to look around. Coincidentally meeting with Erva again,” Vian replied while scratching his head.

“Okay, what kind of situation is this? So this is Erva, the Reva twin that really exists? I didn't expect to meet him here. I'm starting to find out the truth, but I'd better keep my mouth shut about this. Both Erva and Reva, do not know first.”

“Eh, I think you deliberately followed Erva because you liked her,” seductive Rani.

Vian surprised. “Te-Of course not so.”

“Oh, yes, Alvian, try giving me your phone!” tell it. He gave his hand in front of Vian, ready to receive his phone.

Vian was surprised by the request. Newly known already dare to borrow a mobile phone. But he finally decided to comply. “What do you want to do on my phone?” Rani chuckles as she presses the button on her phone. “Erva, you too, give me your phone!”

Erva was surprised. “For what? Anyway I didn't bring my phone here.” Rani whining. “Ih, suck once.” He pulled out his own phone, pressed the button again. He returned Vian's phone.

“You didn't try to tap my phone, did you?” ask Vian. He checked his phone again.

Rani frowned. “Of course not. What's in it I bugged you.”

“Alright, alright.” Vian looks at the shop Rani is guarding.

"You sell... Goat milk?” tanyakanya. Rani nodded quickly.

“Sure. Are you interested in buying? It's fresh goat milk. I can guarantee you'll like it. Most OK quality,” answered Rani excitedly.

“I want to buy one bottle.” Then the conversation continued. In a short time, Vian was able to get to know Erva.

With the help of Rani. Without Rani, maybe they would just sit around without saying a word.
