"But at that time Lo said that Dira -..."
"My wife. That's Dira's real status." Cut Axell fast.
"Wife?" Instantly a discordant laugh came out of Bastian's mouth. Yesterday Axell said that Dira was his girlfriend and now turned into a wife? Which one is right?
"... Since when, Xell... Since when did Lo become a pinter lie like a gini? Pake all making up stories if Dira's wife Lo ..." Bastian shook his head while laughing. "... So afraid of Lo if I get Dira from Lo, until Lo has to make a story that does not make sense cake like this?" Bastian's head shook again. "... Lawak Lo!" Bastian said at the end of his laughter
Axell quiet. He answered Bastian's words. The man then rested his shoulders on the concrete fence of the rooftop barrier. His head looked up. His eyes were closed enjoying the wind blowing on his face.
Bastian's reaction was exactly what he had expected. This friend of his will definitely be difficult to believe the truth he just revealed. But if Axell doesn't tell the truth soon enough, his best friend will definitely continue like this. And maybe you will continue to expect Dira or even will even grieve more than this.
A few minutes passed with no words coming out of Axell or Bastian. The two are silent. Until finally heard a long sigh coming out of Axell's mouth.
"Today, Bas. Right on this day, two months over a week. The day I officially bear the status of Dira's husband ..." Axell said with his eyes still closed.
Still quiet. Bastian chose silence. He didn't want to interrupt what Axell was going to tell him. Here he prefers to hear the story of Axell. But on the other hand his heart was like refusing to believe in his best friend. But, if you remember as long as they are friends, Axell is not a liar. And what Axell said must be the truth that has happened actually. It didn't seem like it would be wrong to hear the true story of Axell. So thought Bastian.
"Lo remember the day I didn't go to school for two days without any information and Lo maksa wanted to meet at d'Axe Cafe that day? You did not realize, that day Dira also did not enter. Wh why? Because it was the day I married her..."
Tub struck by lightning in broad daylight. Bastian was completely shocked to hear Axell's true confession. He's not ready. I wanted to be in disbelief, but Axell seemed to be telling the truth.
"... You know why I chose not to date, even though I've long moved on from Rere?" Ask Axell again. That's because I'm in the process of accepting the biggest decision of my life that my parents must have made before." Axell.
"The biggest decision how do you mean?" Bastian asked who was now increasingly curious about Axell's story even his tone now turned serious.
Axell let out a long sigh before actually telling Bastian everything. "Just after Mommy found out I broke up with Rere, Mommy said that it turns out I've been fooled."
"Stupid?" Bastian asked with a frown. He's getting more clueless here.
Axell was silent for a moment, remembering where Mother Resty told about the matchmaking that her father had arranged first.
"At first I tried hard to refuse ..." Axell said then his head shook. "... But you know, how am I? The hard nature I have, it's derived from bokap."
"Fruit falls not far from the tree." Sahut Bastian.
"... Whatever I say, that's what I have to do. And bokap said that I should marry the son of his best friend. Here I can't refuse and finally have to accept the match ..." Axell said again.
Bastian was completely made silent, hearing every confession Axell said.
"... I tried to shut my heart to whoever the girl who tried to get me. It's not because I haven't been able to move on from Rere. Not at all. You know best if I'm someone who can't accept betrayal. I deliberately close my heart because of the matchmaking that I will walk later ..."
"... I think it's free to be in a relationship with someone we can't have. I must be forced to leave him someday, if my marriage has come time and even make me hurt people's hearts finally. That's why I chose her to date ..."
"... And do you know, when Dira entered this school, I almost faltered with the decision I had made myself. I often watched him from far away. But not until I managed to get hold of him, I got back slapped reality when Dad said that I would be married in two weeks ..."
"... I myself am confused, why my parents are so hard to make my soul mate with a girl I do not know at all?Don't know his name, I didn't see his picture. My fiancee also lives with the ring. Axell's gaze now descended to stare at the ring that was circular in his sweet day, followed by Bastian who also followed the direction of his vision.)There was no meeting at all. I'm totally blind here because I don't know who I'm going to marry ..."
"... I just found out that the girl I married was Dira after the Kabul ijab. When I found out the name of the girl I called was none other than Andira." Obviously Axell told me what really happened. Axell seemed to sigh in relief as if he had just released a heavy burden on his shoulders.
"... If my relationship with Dira is just a courtship, I do not mind if I have to let go of him for you, my own friend. But my status and Dira here is not a joke. So I hope you can accept the reality that happened. And sorry if my marriage is the same Dira nyakitin for you. But one thing you have to remember, I want to remain Lo's best friend, and nothing changes after today." Axell then patted Bastian next to his shoulder before leaving the man with a thousand surprises.
"Damn!"
...***...
In the school cafeteria Zaki and Melody since just now only he noticed Dira, who was just daydreaming while churning the meatballs in front of him, with no interest in eating it in the slightest .
"Why guess?" Zaki asked Melody with a mouth that just moved without making a sound. While Melody just shook her head, she didn't understand either.
"The water..." Call Zaki who didn't get any response from Dira
"More..." It was Melody's turn to call. But the result was still the same, there was no response the girl showed.
"Bright... This is the kid why, anyway?" Zaki asked increasingly confused.
*Not knowing. It was still okay. But wait, me!" Melody said while remembering something.
"What?" Ask Zaki curiously.
"Si Dira so kek gini abis out of the toilet." Sayanglin Melody.
"Toilets?" Repeat Zaki while raising one of his eyebrows. While Melody nodded confidently at what she had just said.
"Don't... Dira satan from the toilet, Mel?" Sahut Zaki.
"Iish.. Ngawur Lo! Where are there such broad-day demons?" Melody Protest.
"Why guess?" Tanya Nayla who just came with Verrel.
"No idea, Brother." Answer Melody.
Nayla noticed that Dira was silent from earlier.
'Something must have happened!'
Nayla's hand moved to hold Dira's hand. "Lo why?" Nayla asked subtly and managed to make Dira turn to her
Dira shook his head, "Gue ain't papa, Nay."
"Don't lie, Dir! I know something must have happened, Lo... Something to do with Axell?" Ask Nayla again. But back got no answer because of someone who suddenly came.
"Well, come with me!" Sahut Axell who suddenly came out of nowhere and immediately took Dira's hand and took the girl away. Dira who was not ready directly according to where Axell took him. It raises a big question mark Melody, Zaki and Nayla, except Verrel who did come with Axell earlier
Axell got Dira into his car. No words said. The two are silent with each other's thoughts.
If Dira was thinking about the new truth she heard from the girl who claimed to be Axell's lover her husband. While Axell is hesitant to tell Dira about the new truth he revealed to Bastian.
But wait! Axell realized one thing. Something is strange about the girl. Axell guessed there must be something with Dira earlier. This was not as usual, the girl would definitely protest if she suddenly took him away like this.
But not this time. The girl was silent and refused to open her mouth. Until Axell finally remembered what Verrel said to him before reaching the canteen.
"Don't trust a new person. You trust me enough!" Axell said calmly.
Dira turned to look, "Sister, can I ask you something?"
Axell turned to Dira who was just staring straight ahead. "Whatever you want to know."
"Sister Axell has a girlfriend, huh?" Ask Dira who even inexplicably fished a smile appeared on Axell's lips.
"There was. Why did you suddenly ask that?" Ask Axell back.
The deg!
Hearing Axell's answer somehow made Dira's chest feel tight.
'Why does it suddenly hurt?'
"Sorry!" Lirih Dira's.
Axell scrunched his forehead, "Cock sorry?" Axell asked confused as to why. Dira even apologized to him?
"For Axell's sister to marry me, Axell's sister's relationship with Axell's boyfriend so disturbed." Answer Dira.
"My relationship with my boyfriend is good. Don't think about it!" Axell.
"But there was a girl saying that her relationship with Axell became tenuous because of me!" Say Dira while holding back the tightness in the chest.
Urung replied, one corner of Axell's lips was drawn to the side.
'Tell me guesses!'
"My relationship with my boyfriend is good. Even I'm in one car with him now." Said Axell who even managed to make Dira so confused himself.
Silent, he was digesting what Axell had just said. This is what Axell's girlfriend means, right?
"So I said what's the same Lo?" Ask Axell.
"Which one, brother?" Ask Dira back.
"Don't trust a new person! Because Lo trusts me enough, Lo's husband!" Axell's message repeated his words earlier.
"But, brother -..."
"What?"
"So someone said, if -..."
"No need to beat him up! My relationship with him has long been over. Even long before Lo came into my life ..." Said Axell who immediately denied what the girl he accidentally met in the toilet earlier said.
"... Whatever he said to you earlier, don't believe it!" Axell again.
"Sister Axell knows?"
