Haura left the kitchen with a drink and a snack. The teenage girl walked very carefully to keep her body balanced. It was Bi Nur who wanted to bring the drink to Nevan and the others.
But when Haura was in the main house, the teenage girl immediately prevented Bi Nur's steps and asked her to bring a tray containing drinks and snacks. Haura's goal was to be able to meet Rhea.
From a distance of several meters reaching the living room, Haura was able to hear the voice of Niko and the others were discussing about Static Fluid. Haura was very confident that they were studying Physics.
Slowly but surely, Haura arrived at the family room in the mansion. Haura put drinks and snacks on a table there.
No one noticed Haura's presence there. All focused on the material they were discussing, as did Nevan. Never once did Haura see Nevan seriously with lessons. But this time Nevan looks so focused on the physics book that is in his hands. While occasionally interrupting the explanation given by Niko.
A surprise to Haura, that Nevan is really as intelligent as the usual handsome teenager was proud of. Can Haura make sure that all the explanations that Nevan gives there is nothing wrong. In fact, Nevan rarely even took classes.
For a moment Haura had not yet left the place. Seeing Nevan and the others who were so fun learning together made Haura a little envious. It feels like Haura is also studying with her two best friends. Although Bu Lastri will actually allow himself to study with Luna and Adel, but Haura prefers to study alone at home while helping her mother's work.
“Haura..” A voice calling out Haura's name made her master flinch from her daydream. Gian was the owner of the voice calling Haura. The playboy has not been so concerned with learning. Evidently with a smartphone that never parted from his grasp while replying to a message that was out of who it was. But certainly the message that Gian replied was from a girl because a smile never strayed from Gian's handsome face.
Everyone there turned to the owner of the name Gian mentioned a second ago. The faces of everyone in the room looked at Haura with different expressions. Niko who had always been kind to Haura smiled kindly at the teenage girl. Bella who incidentally not so often tangent with the figure of Haura also smiled thinly at Haura.
Nevan and Rhea. Nevan stared intently at Haura with her eagle eyes. Indicates that the handsome teenager was very unhappy with the presence of Haura there. While Rhea was staring at Haura flatly. No expression at all.
"Why are you here?" nevan asked still with a face holding back in annoyance. "And I told you not to..."
"I'm just gonna send you a drink with a snack." Uncompleted Nevan spoke, Haura instantly cut in
nevan Sayings. This made Nevan further harden her jaw
angrier.
"Why don't you ever say all of my words?"
"I have a reason" replied haura briefly. "And I don't have to tell you what my reason is" Haura continued, seeing Nevan as if to interrupt her statement.
The people who were there only listened to the debate that was going on between Nevan and Haura. No one dared to interfere because indeed they all did not know what the two teenagers were questioning.
"If you don't have anything to ask again, I'll excuse you to go back." Haura immediately turned around to leave the place.
But again Gian who always did not understand the situation and conditions that were happening again stopped Haura's footsteps. "Why don't you join us in learning."
Gian's statement made Nevan, Niko and Bella stare intently at him. Really the playboy is not sensitive to the situation that is happening. Gian may ask Haura to join, even though he knows that Haura and Rhea's relationship is not good.
"Lo better shut up, Gi. Rather than talk but not quality," said Niko.
"My role is the same lo, why can be slow is your brain," hiss Bella who also felt annoyed at Gian who was very
stupid thinks.
"Wrong again, me" said Gian with a slumped shoulder. "I'd better talk to my girlfriend."
Gian also chose to return indifferent and focused surfing ria reply to the message that I don't know who it is.
Haura tried to throw her smile at Rhea who was still staring at her in silence. But alas, instead of returning Haura's smile, Rhea preferred to shift her gaze elsewhere. The beautiful girl's netra was fixed on the book in front of her. Just a transition.
Haura looked disappointed because Rhea seemed so reluctant to meet with her. Even to return her smile, Rhea was not willing. Can Haura make sure that her plan to talk to Rhea will never work.
With lethargic steps Haura chose to leave the place without saying anything more.
Instead of returning to the back pavilion, Haura prefers to join her Mother and other Household Assistants who are tidying up ornamental plants in the back garden.
“Haura, why come here?” a question from Bu Lastri welcomed Haura's arrival.
“Haura is bored by herself,” replied Haura with a grinning smile to her mother.
“But it wasn't just that Nevan said that you were studying?”
“Cockwise, Mom. Learn it later, dizziness Haura from the morning see the book continues.”
“As far as you are, but don't get it because you helped Mom, you don't have time to learn.”
“Mother don't worry, Haura can split time.”
“Bu Lastri is lucky to have a daughter like Haura. Beautiful, kind, diligent, complete anyway,” chirped Bi Nur.
“Iya... polite again. So remember the child in the village,” added Bi Siti.
“Thank you,” muttered Bu Lastri while gently rubbing Bi Siti's shoulder which looked a little sad because it remembered her son in the village there.
After that Bi Nur, Bi Siti, Bu Lastri, Haura and Mang Asep continued their work. Sometimes there are conversations about the work they are doing. If there is none then everything dissolves on each other's work. Arrange ornamental plants in beautiful pots and arrange them to look beautiful.
In the afternoon of that day, the sun was still shining. Sweats of tired signs begin to wet the body. Haura looked at her mother and the others looking very exhausted. Plus, they are no longer young. There was a pain in Haura's chest, seeing her mother and the other Household Assistants still having to work at their almost dusk age. The age where they deserve to rest hard at home without having to sweat for sustenance. But what can be said, their lifeline that requires them to keep working even though the energy is not perfect anymore.
Haura left the back garden without saying goodbye to her mother. The teenage girl's goal is the kitchen. He wanted to make a cold drink for his mother and the others. At least with a glass of cold drink can reduce fatigue because of their work. That's how Haura thinks.
After cleaning his hands, Haura went straight to the refrigerator to make a drink. The choice of the teenage girl was to make orange ice. It must be very fresh in the hot weather like now.
It took a few minutes for Haura to make the drink. The teenage girl was so late in her work that she did not realize that someone had entered the kitchen area. Only then did Haura come to her senses until the person placed her glass before her.
“Gue want a drink that you make,” said the person.
For some Haura seemed to not believe that the person was now standing before her and talking to her.
“Emmm..” Rhea just muttered affirming Haura's words.
Lousy. This is what happens in the kitchen of this luxurious house. Neither Haura nor Rhea were any more vocalists.
Rhea looks busy tinkering at her smartphone. While Haura was still squeezing oranges while occasionally staring at Rhea who ignored her.
“Rhe..” call Haura.
“Emmm...” again Rhea just muttered. Netra the beautiful teenage girl did not even look at Haura.
But Haura did not want to take a headache, as long as Rhea would answer him even if only limited to muttering, it means Rhea heard what he said.
“Rhe... I apologize for everything that happened lately,” said Haura sincerely without stopping the work that the girl was doing.
“All the problems that occur between us,” Haura paused her speech and looked at Rhea who was still installing attention on the smartphone in her hand.
“Also about what happened between you and Nevan.” Haura's words managed to grab Rhea's attention.
Now Rhea manatap Haura. Listening to every word that comes out of the girl's mouth whose incident is a schoolmate with her.
“Sorry, because I'm not good with you and Nevan. I didn't mean to..”.
“Lo same as me?” sergeant Rhea. The beautiful teenage girl looked coldly at Haura.
While the one in view only shook his head as a denial of Rhea's statement.
“If you like me, thank you. But I don't need anything from you."
Haura can catch the look of upset and sad face depicted on Rhea's face.
"What happened between me and Nevan wasn't at all because of you." Rhea let out a long sigh, looking down for a moment as if she was neutralizing the rumble in her heart.
"Everything that happened between me and Nevan happened long before your presence between us. It all started a long time ago."
Listening, that was what Haura was doing. Not a single bit did Haura interrupt.
Rhea smiled bitterly, "Gueya is a fool for being too in love with Nevan. Love that I have not known since when. A love that never returns."
"Because my love is stupid, it makes me do stupid things too." Netra Rhea looked at Haura. "The true no love is a fool, but I am a fool who endures a love that never even looks at me."
Haura was fixated on Rhea's statement. It was quite unexpected, Haura never expected that Rhea was so strong on her love.
"And even I hurt you just because jealousy makes me almost crazy." Rhea kept talking. Reveal her heart to someone she has even hated.
"Gue wants to make peace with my heart. I think I've wasted enough time loving Nevan."
"Huffff...." Rhea let out a long breath again.
"Will you have the drink?" Rhea's question unfolded Haura's attention which had since centered on Rhea's story.
"I forgot. Wait for sebenta." Haura hurried to continue her work of making Ice Orange. Even Haura also forgot that her goal of making drinks was for her mother and another ART that was working in the back garden.
A few minutes later Haura had finished her work. Ice Orange is ready to be enjoyed. Not forgetting Haura poured into Rhea's empty glass. Then shift the position of the glass right in front of Rhea.
"Thank you" said Rhea.
"Sama-sama," Haura replied with a big smile to reveal both dimples on her cheeks.
Rhea prepared to leave the kitchen with a glass of Orange Ice in her hand.
"Rhe.." Haura's voice recanted Rhea's intention to immediately return to the living room.
"There is no such thing as stupid love. All love is beautiful, but the timing is sometimes not on our side" Haura said suddenly.
"You're not stupid just because of your love for Nevan. Instead you are great because you are able to keep your love for one person for a long time. There is nothing wrong with the love you have. Because you never ask who your love will fall for."
Rhea smiled hearing Haura's words. His first smile for the girl he considers as his rival in getting Nevan's love.
"There's no stupid love, right? But why do we sometimes act foolishly out of love?" rhea asked more precisely like a statement.
Haura simply flicked her shoulders in response. Both of them laughed as if the two teenage girls were two close friends.
"Lo love Nevan?" asked Rhea who made Haura instantly stop her laughter.
"No." replied Haura immediately.
Hearing Haura's reply, Rhea just smiled at her. "Gue don't think your struggle will be as hard as mine." An ambiguous statement from a Rhea.
"meaning?"
Rhea just put her shoulders together. "I'm sorry for all my evil attitude is the same," said Rhea sincerely. An unexpected apology made Haura round her eyes perfectly. It was never imagined by him that Rhea would say an apology.
Haura replied, Rhea had first left her in disbelief with what she had just heard.
Haura also immediately left the kitchen towards the back garden with a happy smile engraved on her sweet face. It was a relief for Haura to have spoken four eyes with Rhea. It was truly an unexpected opportunity.
One thing Haura believes, is that Rhea is a beautiful girl with a good heart. It's just that maybe all this time Rhea covered up the sadness in her heart by being cold to anyone. A form of self-defense to not look weak.
