Everything Will Become One
Episodes 10.
Hyuka is helping me cook now, this is the portrait I deliberately took while I was peeling the onion skin.
He was putting a frying pan on the stove, after that, he was sitting in front of me, so it happened that in the kitchen there was also a table and two chairs to sit down or put groceries.
"Raina's... Have you ever been in love?".He put both his palms to his face.
"Of course I have".My answer.
"Is falling in love beautiful? I've never been in love".
"Not always beautiful, Hyuka".I replied while peeling the onion skin.
"Why?".Ah, why does he always ask me, let alone ask me about this.
"Two years ago I had my engagement with the man I've loved since we were in 1st grade of High School... He's my girlfriend, before I went to college, he's handsome, kind, romantic, smart and one thing I like about him is that he knows how to be happy and appreciate a woman...".
"grade 2 High School, the headmaster called me and told me I could graduate 1 year sooner, that day I also got a scholarship to the University in New York... It has been 3 years I went to college there we are still in a relationship, so at one time , he asked me to go back to Indonesia to do the engagement , I gave permission to the head of my university school to go home and finally allowed".I said.
"Then?".Gercep Hyuka replied, I am very reluctant if I have to remember it again, yes but yasudah , already gone.
"About 3 days after I came home, I had my engagement with her, very happy right?? (Hyuka nodded). Yes, I was very happy then and there, but during the week of my engagement there was someone who chatted to me to meet him at a hotel, because I was curious I finally came to the hotel ,and do you know what I saw?? I saw the woman who chatted to me was dating my fiancee's man, they were dancing so romantically".
"Yes, I approached them, and asked my girlfriend, why is she doing this to me she replied "Since you went to college in New York, this woman who replaced you in my heart". I was so sick when I heard that answer, "If you love her, why would you approve of our engagement?".I said to him, "That's because I'm just testing out if I still love you but it's not, you're gone, and you can get more men than me". Just the first time I heard him yell at me ... I finally decided to go back to New York again".
"He's very evil Raina".
"Had always said, if distance was created by God not to torture lovers who are limited by trust, that distance is to mature people, he said... For years I tried to believe that sentence , until at last , I arrived at this point , the feeling that I had been keeping for years had vanished ... The feeling was gone, when the universe supported me the most, making longing the most pleasant work I felt ... But unfortunately , I have to end this story 'cause he always asks me to wait but doesn't give any certainty when he comes back". Suddenly tears fell on my cheeks.
"You don't have to cry".He was about to stand up from his seat but I wiped my tears first.
"Ah, no, this pot is too spicy, so I let out tears".Answer me with a smile.
"Do you have a picture of her?I'd like to see 'em, if allowed".He asked, I immediately opened my phone, because there was one photo that I still keep when he was in High School.
"Wowc ... Handsome too, but free he's handsome if it hurts you ... Why do you keep the picture? Do you still love him?". He returned my phone.
"No, I don't love him anymore, but, Hyuka, of course you know, forgetting all memories is not as easy as forgetting someone". "Again, I don't know where she is now ' said my parents 'she has moved to South Korea with the woman".
"South Korea ?? When do we go around this city who knows who can meet him , all see how his fate after wasting a woman as beautiful and sincere as you". He's stroking my hair.
"Patience well".He said again, I nodded ... After speaking, we continued cooking again. While waiting for others to wake up he said.
