1000 Season Chasing Stars

CHAPTER 53

Luki smiled. “Let me help.” Luki took a rag and started drying the washed dishes and glasses.

“Ma, can I ask you about Laura?” ask Luki.

Mama turned off the water tap. The task of washing the dishes is done. “Of course.” “Did Laura ever like someone all this time?” ask Luki directly.

Mama frowned. “Why did you suddenly ask that?”

Luki covered her curiosity with a smile. “After, I never saw Laura dating. So I wonder, did she ever like someone before?”

Mama smiled at Luki's question. “Laura focuses too much on the world of cooking. But... Laura once liked someone, once when she was in school.”

Luki had guessed it. “Does mom know the guy's name?” His research on Laura's past gradually got a bright spot.

Mama shook her head. “Mama doesn't know her name. Laura never told me. He likes the guy but he already has a girlfriend. So Laura's liking clapped one hand.” “Laura is heartbroken, isn't it?” Luki could already guess correctly now.

Mama nodded. “Iya. He was constantly chasing after that person. Even trying to get into the same class as him. He said it was fine for him that the man was not his girlfriend. But he wanted to be his friend and get to know him. One day, Laura cried for hours. He said he lost that guy. Mama never saw it that sad. Laura must really like the person.”

“Laura never met that person again after her?” ask Luki.

“Mama don't know,” says honest mama. “We moved city after Laura passed the final exam.”

Luki understands now. “Mama, do you remember where Laura's school used to be?”

Mama nodded and told me the name of Laura High School. Luki remembered it in her heart.

After returning to the apartment, Luki immediately opened her computer and searched all the information about Niko Fareli. Especially about her past, like where she went to school. When she saw the name of the school Niko was the same as the name of the school that mom told her, Luki thought hard. Laura and Niko one High School. Luki is looking for more information about the SMA. He looked at the alumni page of the High School. Alumni graduated eight years ago. Laura's name is in the same class as Niko's.

Luki took a deep breath. She's already found the common thread of Niko and Laura's relationship. Her lower floor neighbor was the man Laura had once liked. Luki now knows everything. Most likely Niko Fareli has broken Laura's heart. That was why Laura always looked into Niko's eyes with sadness. Luki will not stay silent to let Laura drag on in grief. The wall clock in his apartment showed at one in the morning.

It was too late to wake up the neighbors downstairs. Luki will let Niko sleep comfortably tonight. But in the next few hours. Luki will make Niko Fareli uncomfortable again.

The phone in his apartment sounded. Luki opened her eyes that were still half sleepy. He saw a wall clock in his bedroom. It's just 06:00. Luki had just woken up for three hours.

“Halo,” said. He yawned and tried to cover with his hands.

“This is me Niko”.

Luki was instantly awake. He had intended to contact Niko this morning, but it turned out that Niko had contacted him first.

“Meet me in half an hour at apartment” restaurant. Niko laly hung up.

Luki hung up her phone as well and rushed to the bathroom.

Half an hour later, the two met face-to-face in an apartment restaurant.

Niko looked at Luki sharply. “I don't want to pretend anymore”.

“What do you mean?” ask Luki again.

“I've known Laura since a long time”. Niko did not take her eyes off Luki in the slightest. “I can't pretend2 don't know him in front of you”.

Luki folded her hands in front of her chest. “I already know”.

Luki's words make Niko flabbergasted. “you already know?”.

“I just found out yesterday” said Luki. He looked at the man in front of him with a cold look.

“Laura tell you?” ask Niko confused. She did not expect Laura to tell Luki, especially after her hard efforts to pretend2 did not know her.

Luki. “I know it myself. You guys go to the same school. Same class”

So surprised, Niko also felt relieved Luki to know the truth. “Good then. I called you here because I won't give up on getting Laura”.

Luki frowned in astonishment. “What do you mean? Isn't your relationship with Laura over?”.

Niko laughed short. “No. My relationship with him will never end. I came to give you a warning. I don't like chasing Laura quietly behind your back. That's not my style. I want you to know that I'm after your lover. And I won't apologize to you for that.”

Luki leaned back in the chair. His eyes looked at Niko with a bit of confusion.

Why does Niko think I'm Laura's boyfriend? But the confusion only lasted a little.

Niko doesn't know that Laura's my sister.

Luki's smile expanded slowly. He only found out about it two years ago. How can Niko now know Luki decided not to tell Niko the truth. Other than that it was none of Niko's business, he also wanted to know how far Niko would challenge him. Luki always likes a new challenge.

“Do you think you can take Laura away from me?” her fishing line. Niko's smile expanded slowly. “Yes. I can definitely get Laura back. He never forgets me.”

Luki smiled briefly. “Did you say that to make me jealous?”. Niko shook her head. “I said so because that's the truth. I love Laura. You do love him. But... You don't love her”. Luki looked at Niko in disbelief. “How could you possibly know I don't love Laura?”. Niko smiled faintly. Then his smile widened. “Actually I don't know. But your question convinced me. You don't love her”.

“What?” tanya Luki was getting confused. Niko laughed lightly. “I just said that I love Laura. And you answer my questions with questions, not with punches. You didn't even realize I had said that. If you really loved her, you already hit me in the face when I said I loved her.”

Luki was silent not. He got a comparable opponent. “I won't let you get Laura. You broke her heart.”

“I know”. Niko's gaze turned sad. “That's why I won't do the same mistake again.” “Laura is happy with me,” said Luki annoyed. “Why do you insist on taking it from me? Wouldn't loving her you let Laura be happy? With anyone?”
