About the Heart

I'll Explain Later

Mas Rud stepped foot first into the bookstore. I followed him from behind. When he passed the security of the bookstore, he gave his thumbs up to me. I returned a sweet smile at the actions of the Father. In my heart I said, "i know what your thumb means sir!"

The thumb hinted, that I was good at choosing a boyfriend. Yes sir I know, my girlfriend is handsome! Not arrogant, but Rud is handsome. With a height of 176 cm, proportional body shape, supported by clean skin completes the perfection of his handsome face.

But actually, I am also a minder sir, with the thumbs of the Father! The gesture, it shows, if I am not too worthy to be his girlfriend. I'm smart to find a girlfriend, but Rud's not smart to have chosen me. Nahh .. flank!

Bruug!

"Of ...!" I said as I rubbed my head against someone's body.

"Ngapain dumbfounded?" asked Mas Rud who was already standing right in front of me.

"No," pointed me at the security standing at the entrance of the bookstore.

Mas Rud frowned.

"You familiar?" tanyanya.

I'm shaking. Rud looked even more curious.

"Keep," Mas Rud wondered.

"Later on, Mas, let's go find a book first!" take me to Mas Rud.

Mas Rud just kept quiet and followed my steps.

"Kok, are you following the book?" ask Mas Rud.

"Can't you?" answer hence.

I also walked away from Rud. I searched shelf by shelf, to find the book I wanted to find. I was busy looking around, reading synopses from 1 novel to another.

"What novel?" a voice surprised me.

"A novel suitable for a High School boy," I replied to the voice I believed belonged to Mas Rud even without me seeing it first.

"Make you?" ask Mas Rud.

"No!" I answered while engrossed in reading a synopsis of the novel that I felt matched the one I was looking for.

"Make my sister!" my answer.

"Akrabic?" Mas Rud kept looking for me.

"No, Mas, just know from my friend's story," I explained.

"Why do you love novels?" search Mas Rud.

"The next day was my birthday" I explained.

"If you don't know, why give gifts?" Rud asked for an explanation.

"My friend asked me to buy her a gift for her sister!" obviously bertubi-tubi.

"Why doesn't he love himself?" Mas Rud continued to interrogate me.

"He's out of town, Mas" I kept explaining to Rud.

The face of Rud looked even more curious.

"He's a boy?" ask Mas Rud.

I answered with a nod. Mas Rud instantly took the novel in my hand and returned it to the shelf.

"Say to your friend, if you can't buy gifts for his sister" Mas Rud told me.

"What's wrong, Mom?" i'm rattled.

"You're so innocent, Sa! Your friend likes you" explained Mas Rud.

I was really surprised by Rud's explanation. I also read every sentence he said to me. I began to feel the truth of his every word.

"We pay for the book I buy first, I'll clear it up" Mas Rud broke up.

I agreed to his decision without asking much more. The smile that began to fade, showed that there was something wrong that I had to fix immediately. After passing through the exit, I caught Mas Rud's smile greeting the security I was talking about but I hadn't finished explaining. And this is a sign that Mas Rud will soon ask for an explanation from me.
