Un - Break My Heart
40. Clap Next to Hand

"Sandy" hearing her name called Sandy turned her face to the source of the voice.

"Harem" called Sandy back to say hello to Harem. He let go of his embrace to his wife, shook hands and hugged each other.

"Have not seen each other for a long time, how are you?" ask Harem. She gets to know Sandy for the first time while visiting Reyhan's apartment. She was introduced as Reyhan's friend to Sandy, as it was still early in her studies. Friendly Sandy makes Harem also comfortable to be friends with Sandy.

"Good news. How are you? have you met the same girl you told me about back then?" sandy's question made Harem turn his face to look at Nayla.

Sandy who saw it only thought that Harem asked to be introduced to his wife Nayla. "This is my wife. I invited you to our wedding but you didn't come"

"Sorry and congratulations even if it's too late" replied Herem briefly. "Maybe we know Nay again, let you not forget" Harem smiled seductively.

"Do you know each other?" Sandy was a little curious, she noticed there was a different view of Harem on Nayla.

"Yes, a few years ago. But it seems your wife forgot to recognize me" Harem chuckled.

"Come on Hans" Nayla invites Sandy to Reyhan's room immediately. Sandy agreed.

"Where's the Harem?" Sandy asked as they were already far enough away from the Harem.

"Forgotten, but Harem said that we met in Holland several times"

Nayla's answer stopped Sandy's move. "What's wrong?" ask Nayla who stopped walking.

"Nothing" Sandy shook her head. Now that he is beginning to understand the meaning of Harem's gaze, the man once told him that he fell in love with a girl while in Holland. Now that Sandy knew that she was Nayla's wife and she was also grateful that Nayla did not remember her encounter with Harem, it was said that Nayla did not consider the meeting something special. All this time Harem clapped his hands.

"Daddy" Raka broke Sandy's memory of Harem this afternoon.

"Daddy thinks what? until now I didn't understand what Lola was like Princess of the story" Lola said.

Currently they are gathering in the family room as usual sharing the story of what they did one day.

"Sorry Daddy wasn't concentrating. Now it can be repeated" pinta Sandy.

"No" replied Lola and the Princess simultaneously. "There's no such thing as a rebroadcast" the two replied again.

"You are indeed compact yes" sandy chuckled at the sight of his two nephews. They grew so fast, it didn't feel as bad as they would part. Sandy and Nayla have to let go of them, this is also for their future. He and Nayla would definitely miss a moment like this.

Meanwhile at Cafe Zein, two handsome men were sitting down enjoying a cup of black coffee and some snacks. Occasionally pay attention to each other in silence while sipping coffee in front of them.

Reyhan watched Jonathan who looked disheveled. Since returning from his room Jonathan looked different, there was no smile on his face as usual, what looked was anger and not as much talk as before. After lunch together, Jonathan just disappeared, not even Jessycapun know where her husband went.

"Something puts me at ease" Jonathan spoke without seeing Reyhan, preferring to see the crowds out there through the wide glass walls.

"I want to admit something to you before I return to the USA. Don't cut what I said, you just listen" Reyhan frowned when he heard Jonathan.

"I've known Shinta since Elementary School, she's a cute and adorable little girl. At that time I was with my father to meet Aunt Syila, I don't know what they were talking about that I knew at that time Aunt Syila was not married to Om Jay. One week from that day, my aunt came back to the USA with her two sons and told us that she and Om Jay were divorced. It didn't take long for Om Jay to marry Aunt Syila, making his two sons hate Om Jay and Aunt Syila."

Jonathan paused his story, sipping the coffee in front of him. Reyhan did the same thing sipping coffee in front of him as he continued to pay attention to Jonatahan. It's so late, they do need that drink to keep them awake.

"Every time my father visited Indonesia, he always took me. Never once did she leave me alone and it made me meet Shinta often. Until finally when Shinta was about to graduate Junior High I expressed my feelings for her"

Jonathan smiled in memory of that moment. While Reyhan does not like to hear it, but he tries to control his emotions.

"Shinta refused at the time but she was still very innocent, so I always interrupted and took her with me to take a walk around Bandung" Jonathan Tekkeh

"His funniest again when I'm going back to the USA I told him thank you for being my girlfriend. His face flushed with anger, he was angry and hated me. But I kept teasing her until I finally realized that I loved her so much, not for a moment"

Reyhan's face seemed to change hearing Jonathan's confession.

"But it was my last meeting with him, last and memorable until I always missed him. I don't know why since then, my father never invited me to visit Indonesia again. Until finally after finishing college I ventured to talk to my father about my intention to propose to Shinta"

"Dad didn't allow it because of the many differences between us. That's one of the reasons dad, who I was forced to accept"

"Then my father told me about your marriage and he betrothed me to Jessyca"

Jonathan went back to sipping his coffee, this time to the toilet. While Reyhan persisted in silence despite the discomfort when Jonathan said he wanted to propose to Shinta.

"But that's not a problem that makes me disappointed" Jonathan looked out again where the streets were not as crowded as when he came.

"Om Jay and Aunt Syila are lovers who must be separated by the selfishness of a Smith. Om Jay was framed for sleeping with my aunt and forced to get married. Although my father's plan succeeded in separating them, Aunt Syila still did not want to marry my father and willing to become a spinster"

"The reason my father opposed my desire to propose to Shinta was because he wanted to live with Aunt Syila. This is what makes me angry and disappointed. It was so painful to stab when he found out the truth, he sacrificed his son's happiness for his selfishness"

Jonathan kept telling Reyhan until he finally found out all the truth this afternoon. Jonathan was relieved he felt there was nothing more he was hiding. Acknowledging his one-handed love for Shinta in front of Reyhan is nothing to be ashamed of. Meanwhile the room, Zein was watching the two while listening to what the two were talking about through the earphones, he had already installed a sound eavesdropping device at Reyhan's request.

"I ask you to please Aunt Syila, she suffered too much because of my father, not only him but me. But I'm glad Shinta got a husband like you, at least I don't have to worry about her happiness"
