The sound of chicken woke me up. Actually it's not the sound of a real chicken, but the sound of my alarm. I opened the window, I looked at the blue sky covered with soft white clouds, I took a deep breath of fresh air, softly the breeze blew my hair and the window curtain located on this second floor.
This is my first day at my father's villa. Looks like, I'm going to spend my high school graduation vacation here. I'm here with my father, mother and sister. I think here I will be calm because I am free from air pollution and the hustle of the city. Yes! Of course here I also did not meet my sister Noni who is fussy and always knows all about love because she is busy in college. He always advised me about love because indeed I often choose wrong in love and finally broken hearts.
"Rayya ... Breakfast first !!" Call my mother from downstairs
"Yeah, mom, just a moment," I replied, reflecting on my hair and cleaning my face. I immediately opened the door of the room and down the stairs. We also eat together. After eating I returned to the room to pick up and wear a jacket.
"Yeah, ma'am. Rayya can walk around here right? " my permission to father and mother
"Yes, you can.."
"But be careful," said the father and mother together
"Can you join Aldo, sis?" my sister said
"You can't, bro. Next time hehehehe "I said with a grimace
I left the villa facing north. The road in this villa has not been paved and many small stones are scattered on the road. But here it is very cool because of the many trees. I've never traveled around here before. So, I'm a little confused.
"Hmm ... Road to the west or east?" I asked in my heart
"Just east if west instead leads to the highway" I answered myself
Slowly I walked east. I looked right and left along the path of this villa area. Quiet .. Very quiet, there are only cars parked in front of several villas. Maybe the villa owner is busy inside the house.
I continued to walk through this area. Finally, I stopped because I was at the villa located at the very end.
"Hey!"
I turned around in surprise because someone patted my right shoulder and called out to me, as soon as my neck shook.
"Wh ... who are you?" I asked nervously
"Know me Reihan, just call Rei. You must be on vacation here, right? What is your name?" the answer
"Yes, yes. I'm Rayya. You live in this villa? " I asked again
"Yes. That's my villa, "he said while pointing at the white-painted villa with a red car in front of it, which was located south of the road.
I just nodded and rounded my mouth to form an O.
"Let's go for a walk together?" he asked
"Hmm, you may. Where?" I asked
"Go straight ahead, there's a park and a lake," he answered, pointing to the path next to the villa at the end.
Me and Rei immediately walked together, chatting, and joking. But somehow I still feel goosebumps, maybe because the air here is indeed cold. Sure enough, there are parks and lakes here. Rei picked one of the flowers and placed it on my right ear.
"Aaaa Rei, how come you're romantic in a fairytale country," I joked
"Hehehe just ordinary," said Rei, smiling
I dug into my pants pocket to take my cellphone. Apparently, I didn't bring my cellphone.
"What are you looking for?" Rei asked curiously
"Rei's cellphone. I want photos here, the view is really beautiful. Unfortunately my cellphone missed "I replied with a disappointed face
"Yes, it's OK, next time, you can still come here tomorrow. Tomorrow we will come here again ”
"Really Rei ??"
"Yes, really Rayya"
Because I walked for almost 30 minutes, I decided to go back to the villa. When he reached the road in front of Rei's villa, Rei walked away and smiled at me.
Arriving at the villa, I immediately entered the room, I took a small diary that I always carry around with me in my bag. I wrote my heart pour about this morning with Rei
The contents
"Dear diary ...
Today is very beautiful.
I really found a different figure. For some reason even though I met Rei only once, I felt very comfortable with her. He is a kind and innocent person. I hope to get to know him better "
I just remembered. It turned out that the flower that Rei had given in my ear had not been taken. I also took the flower and put it on a diary paper that reads pouring my heart today. I lay my body on the bed and hugged my diary book while smiling staring at the ceiling of my room, I remembered Rei's face and smile. Ohh .. Really handsome like a prince.
The next day. After waking up I immediately took a shower, so I could walk longer. I came out of the villa, how surprised I saw Rei was in front of my villa.
"Why do you know my villa, Rei?"
"You know. Great right?"
"Yes, it's really great"
"The cellphone isn't lagging anymore right?"
"No, please, Rei"
I immediately walked with Rei, we shared with each other about our stories. He really made me very comfortable. Arriving at the park, me and Rei took fun pictures, about 20 photos that I got with Rei. In the park, me and Rei also joke and chase. Rei suddenly told me to sharpen my eyes, I was curious about what Rei would do, when Rei told me to open my eyes, it turned out he was putting a necklace made of flower arrangements around my neck. I don't know where Rei got the necklace, for sure I was very happy with Rei's gift. After that, I took a picture wearing a flower arrangement necklace that was given by Rei.
"Let's go there!" Rei asked while pointing at the edge of the lake
"Come on come on" I said, nodding
At the edge of the lake, Rei sat on my right. Rei throws a small stone into the lake and is silent not saying a word here. Unintentionally, my right hand touched Rei's left hand.
"Rei, how come your hands are so cold? Are you sick? " I asked worriedly
"Mmm .. not really," he answered with a smile
Occasionally I look at the clock on my cellphone, without realizing it turns out I have more than 1 hour left the villa. I decided to go home, but Rei didn't want to go home and still wanted to be by the lake. Rei invited me to take a walk again this afternoon, I agreed to Rei's invitation. On the way home I just realized that the flower necklace Rei was wearing was not there, it might break up on the road.
Arriving at the villa, I sat in the villa's living room. I opened my cellphone photo gallery, I saw my photos with Rei, it made me smile to myself. There is a pose that I like most when taking a photo with Rei, the pose when Rei ruffled my hair, I made the photo as a cellphone wallpaper.
"Hayoo smiles to yourself!" joked my mother who suddenly sat beside me
"Ciye brother Rayya is falling in love huh?" my sister said
"Oh my mother and Aldo what the heck" I say with a shy blush
"Honestly, sis. The brother is a handyman who falls in love, "mocked my sister
"Aldo, what do you know about elementary school kids?" I said, pinching my younger brother's cheek
"Talk to mom, who is Rayya in love with who," my mother said with a smile
"No ma'am, Rayya is no longer in love. This is loooo Rayya read Rayya's friend's story on a very funny sms. So Rayya smiles on his own, "I explained, forced to lie.
Over time, the evening arrived. I hurried to tidy up my appearance and get out of the villa. Again, Rei is in front of my villa. I wondered why he always came on time, he said he didn't want to make me wait.
The sky looks cloudy and filled with black clouds. It looks like it will be raining soon. Rei also invited me to his villa. When I entered the villa's living room, I looked around the very neat and clean living room. I approached the small table in the corner of the living room and took one of the photos of 4 people wearing batik with the largest frame on the table.
"Who is this photo of Rei?"
"That's a picture of my family. That's father, mother, me and my brother. Oh yeah, I made a drink first, okay? "
"Okay, Rei"
When Rei was in the kitchen, I was alone in the living room, for some reason I was shivering with cold here. A few moments later, Rei came with 2 cups of warm tea, he also gave me 1 glass.
"Rei, how come your house is really cold," I said, folding my arms in the cold
"See, the AC is on," he said, pointing to the AC on the wall above me
"Oh yes," I said simply
In my heart I muttered, when I entered this villa there was no AC that I saw in this living room. But maybe I am not careful or not aware if there is AC. I also drink the tea given by Rei.
"Rei, are you already in college or still in school?"
"I have just studied in semester 3, majoring in computer science at University X. If you?"
"I just graduated from high school, I plan to continue at the University of Y majoring in nutrition. So should I call you Sis Rei then? "
"Wow, good, hopefully you will accept it. Ah no, just call Rei okay "
"Yeah, Sis, Rei, eh, that means Rei. Why doesn't it seem like it's raining, should I go home?
"Want me to queue Rayya?"
"No thanks, haha"
"Ciye Rayya really loves traveling now," said the father, who was reading the newspaper on the villa terrace
"I'll get healthy," I said, smiling broadly and sitting down to Dad
"How come the smile is so great, what's up?" asked my father
"Err ... ehh ... after the walk it will be refreshed, it will be fun. Well, I will go first, "I answered with the reason that it was a little disconnected and went straight into the villa.
I approached my sister who was watching TV and snacking on cassava chips. I joined the cassava snack that my sister brought. I haven't finished chewing food, my sister's words shocked me.
"Sis Noni wants to come here, Sis"
"What Do? Please repeat once more "
"Sis Noni wants to come here, but I don't know when Sis"
I coughed up the will. I felt the fall of the moon and struck by lightning at the words. If Sis Noni came here she would be nosy and pretentious, I am not allowed this or that.
The night arrived. I saw the clock in my room showed 20:00. I took my diary and opened one sheet at a time. When I opened it to the bottom of my heart when I was with Rei, a fragrant scent of flowers stinged in my nose, the window curtain was blown fast enough by the wind. Even though the flower that Rei gave me yesterday was almost withered, for some reason the fragrance was still so oppressive. I returned to write my heart pour
The contents
"Dear diary ...
If I remember Rei's figure, this heart feels so happy. He had managed to slip into the small space of my heart and become a new figure who managed to color my life. Is it too fast if I call this love? But ... why doesn't he ask for my cellphone number? "
After writing, I keep my diary under my pillow. I lay my body to sleep immediately. Before going to bed I took my cellphone, opened my photo gallery and looked back at my photo with Rei while in the park. Slowly I began to sleep. I just fell asleep, I woke up because I dreamed of Rei. I dreamed that Rei and I were in a very large white room, at first Rei held my hand and thanked me because I had accompanied him, Rei slowly let go of his hand began to move away and disappear. I also tried to sleep again.
Kring ... Kring ... Kring
Now my alarm clock woke me up, not my cellphone alarm anymore. I opened the window curtain of my room, looked outside the rain dripping rain. Actually I wanted to go for a walk this morning, but I stopped my intention to take a walk because of the rain. Occasionally I looked down from the window, I saw Rei was down there. I can not believe, I rubbed my eyes, I saw again below there is no Rei. Maybe it was just my imagination.
1 hour later, the rain began to stop. I said goodbye to my mother and father to go for a walk. I was out of this villa.
"Where is Rei? Tumben is not there "I muttered to myself while looking right and left of the villa courtyard
I started walking slowly leaving the villa a little disappointed because there was no Rei who was usually waiting for me.
Suddenly
"Hayoo, find me, okay?" Rei patted my shoulder from behind
"It's just shocking you. Yes "I said with a little annoyed
"Don't be sorry sorry sorry," said Rei feeling guilty
"Oh yeah, let's go to the lake?" continued Rei
"You may," I nodded
Arriving at the lake, we sat on the edge of the lake while playing feet in the water. There was a chat between us
"Who are you at this villa with Rei?"
"Alone"
"Not afraid? Where are your parents? "
"No, it's already big. Ahh what .. um ... my parents are busy at work ”
"I see ... by the way I never saw you holding a cellphone huh?"
"My handphone is broken"
"Rei ??? How come your face is like that? "
"Yes, but I'm fine though"
"Oh yeah, Rei. Last night I dreamed you said thanks and left me. I'm so scared, Rei ”
"Ahh, I won't leave you, Ray. You don't pray before you go to sleep so that you have nightmares. "
"Hehe, really, Rei, I forgot to pray"
I spent my time in the lake taking pictures with Rei, until finally I decided to go home.
"Remember, Rayya, what doesn't show doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The one that doesn't mean it can't be fused, "said Rei with a smile and held my shoulder
"What do you mean?" I asked confused
"I don't know if you will know it yourself," he said curtly and took his hand off my shoulder
When I returned from the lake I passed villa Rei. I stopped for a moment and smiled at the villa.
Arriving at the terrace of my villa, I saw my sister was cool reading comics. I approached him.
"Aldo, how come it's quiet? Where did you go, Daddy? " I asked my sister
"Daddy, pick up sister Noni, sis. If I'm cooking in the kitchen, "he answered while still looking at the comic
"What ??? Noni sister ??? Noooooo! " I shouted, repeatedly patting my forehead
"Rayya .. Aldo .. Eat first, let's go. Already mom masakin fried rice ya "call the mother from the villa, my sister and I were rushed over to the mother.
"Rayya, why have you been diligently traveling for the past 3 days? Even though you are usually lazy to walk, "said the mother, bringing rice to my sister's plate
"While you're here, ma'am. If in the city you can't walk, "I said, forced to lie again
Actually I do not want to lie to my mother. But I was afraid if I said I was walking with Rei I would be scolded because Rei was not known by my family.
The sky is getting more and more late. The night arrived. I fell asleep. When I woke up I immediately got up from the bed because I was surprised on the floor of my room many backpacks scattered. Suddenly someone opened the door to my room.
"Hello, Rayyap wooden girl, how did he wake up in the afternoon ... I miss you so much. I haven't seen you in a long time but still smells like that, Sis Noni hugged me tightly
"What the heck, sis, can I just play riot just now" I said with my eyes that couldn't be fully opened because I was still sleepy
"I miss you. Ciye has a crush on a guy named Rei huh? " Said Noni while taking out a diary from his pocket
"Shhh ... I'll hear you later. Where did you take my diary? " I said with wide-eyed eyes and my hands immediately covered Sister Noni's mouth
"From there" Sis Noni let go of my hand and pointed at the pillow
"You be careful if you fall in love. I'll be upset again, confide again, cry again, pretend I promise I don't want to fall in love again "continued Noni mocked me
"Listen, my lovely sister, my Rei Si is a different person from the others ... very special!" I say in a made-up tone
"Your very style. Just look later !! Usually when you fall in love, you praise a guy, if you've broken your heart, you look bad on a guy, ”teased Sis Noni
"Ah hungry talking to you Sis, eat first ah" I stood up from the bed and left Sis Noni.
In the dining room, various foods are served there. The five of us gathered and ate together. In the midst of silence we were busy chewing food suddenly Noni broke the silence
"Well, ma'am ... Rayya su ... su ... su ...ka sssss .. sam..ma ..." said Sis Noni while staring at father and mother
"Yes!! Rayya really likes your cooking, especially the grilled chicken hmmm, it's really delicious, "I cut off Noni Sis's words while smiling and under the table my feet stepped on Noni's feet.
My father and mother were just amazed at how I and Ms. Noni behaved.
Tililililittt
I heard the sound of my cellphone that I left in my room, and I hurried to spend it on my plate which had only a few left and headed for the room. There was an incoming call on the screen but the number was private, I picked up the phone.
"Hello, who is this?"
"Rayya, it's me Rei"
"Your cellphone isn't broken? Then where did you get my number? Rei, I miss you. This morning we didn't go for a walk. "
"Yes. That distance is not a barrier right? "
"What do you mean Rei?"
"Parting is not the end of everything. The meeting may end in separation, but this love can be like an endless earth. In the world nothing lasts forever ”
Tut tut tut tuttt
Instantly the telephone was disconnected. Feeling annoyed, I threw my cellphone to the bed.
"Um, the phone is called Rei huh? Be careful, there are many guys who are just crap here and there, ”said Noni, who suddenly entered my room.
"But, Rei isn't like that. He is handsome, kind, romantic too "I said with a smile and took back my cellphone that I threw on the bed
"Here ... I'm liatin fo ..." not finished I continued my words I was surprised, very surprised.
Actually I want to see my photo with Rei which I made as wallpaper on Noni Sis. But on my cellphone wallpaper, I only take pictures by myself. The pose when my hair was ruffled by Rei, is now a picture of myself as if my hair was just a mess in the wind. I immediately opened my photo gallery with Rei while in the park, but it's the same, I was seen taking photos by myself. When I took a photo wearing a flower arrangement necklace, there was no flower necklace. I closed my mouth tightly, slowly my tears were dripping, I did not want my tears to burst in this villa.
"Rayya? Are you alright? " said Noni with teary eyes staring at me
"Sis, Rei sis ... Yesterday I took photos with Rei for 3 days traveling with her. But, why is the picture now so I'm alone? ” I said while crying
"Yes, this is all. What if we now go to Rei's villa? ” invite Noni Sis
"Yes sis," I replied, wiping my tears with my hand
Up in front of Rei's villa, this surprised me even more. There is no longer a white-painted villa in front of which there is a red car. There are only the remnants of the white-painted villa that was scorched because of burning.
"Rayya, are you sure this is Rei's villa?" asked Noni in a soft voice
"Yeah sis sure" I answered sobbing
I approached the villa, standing between the remains of the charred villa. In front of me, there is a photo like the first time I saw it in Rei's villa, a photo of Rei's family. It's just that the glass frame is a little dusty. Instantly I sat limp while rubbing the photo glass.
"Rei .. Where are you? Who are you really? Why are you mysterious? Why did you just leave? Why do you have the heart? You said you would never leave me. I love you Rei, I feel comfortable with you. I miss you." my tears burst and my tears trickled down the photo
"Already do not cry Rayya, let's go home let's discuss at home" Kak Noni hugged me and pulled my hand so I stood
At the villa, I told my father and mother about my story from the beginning of meeting Rei until Rei suddenly disappeared. Indeed many irregularities when I was with Rei. Starting from him who always suddenly appeared, cold hands, strange air conditioners, and others. I remember Rei told me that she studied computer science at X University.
"Father. "Reihan is studying computer science at X University," I told my father
"Well, let's go there now. We are looking for certainty, "said the mother
"Are you serious, mom?" asked Noni Sis
"Yes, you are serious," answered the mother
We immediately got ready to go to X University. Father also told us to pack up our belongings and leave this villa to return to the city so that I would not drag on sorrow.
Arriving at University X, my father asked the employee in charge of processing student data.
"Miss. Is there a student in computer science major named Reihan? " asked my father
"Wait a minute, sir, I'll find it first" answered the employee as he typed and looked at the computer monitor
"There is, sir. But sorry, he has died "continued the employee
"What did you leave it, miss? What date?" I continued
"According to the data it looks like because the villa was in a fire, all of his family members died. That is all the dates, "said the employee
"Oh, thank you," we left X University
Along the way, in the car I just daydream and little by little tears because of remembering Rei. And if I count down today's date to the date Rei died, it turns out 40 days. Now that I understand, I won't forget Rei and my memories with her.
Rei, you exist even if it's not real.
