This afternoon Dira decided to visit the tomb of his mother and sister Dara.
Before going to the tomb, Dira took to his subscription flower shop to buy a bouquet of flowers that he used to bring if he was visiting the tomb.
Florist.
Dira stopped in front of the store that read the florist and immediately entered the store.
"Anything can be helped? Uh, Dira." One of the employees at the flower shop who was none other than Mitha.
"Mother Mitha, Dira asked for two flowers huh, which is as usual." Reply Dira with a sweet smile.
"Ok, hang on, Dir. You sit down first." Reply Mitha.
Dira nodded his head and walked towards the available seating.
"Eh, there's Dira. Going to the tomb, Dir?" Nicholas asked the flower shop owner's son who saw Dira's arrival.
"Yes, brother." Reply Dira with a smile.
"Who's same? By yourself?" Ask Nicholas again.
"Yes, brother. Dira didn't tell the house if he wanted to go to the tomb." Answer Dira as is. Dira often comes alone to the tomb. But sometimes Dira comes with the company of Papa Pras and also Mama Diva.
"You want Nicho Temenin, what a coincidence that Nicho has no class today?" Bargain Nicholas to Dira, hoping the girl he likes to accept his offer. Actually, Nicholas had liked the girl for a long time, but Dira always refused him on the grounds that he did not want to date.
"No, brother. Dira doesn't want to take nicotine." Reply Dira with a smile.
"No, no, no nicotine at all." Nicholas replied quickly.
"No, Dira can do it alone." Reject Dira again.
"Surely can be alone?" Ask Nicholas who began to soften and did not intend to force Dira again.
"100% sure." Replied Dira while giving her thumbs.
"Yes, if that's the case, but if you need a temen, go wherever it goes, brother Nicho is ready to go." Nicholas said to Dira.
Seeing Nicholas who was still trying to be able to take him away together, made Dira shake her head slowly.
"Yes, thank you." Dira replied while displaying a smile.
"It's Dir, the flower." Mitha said as she handed Dira two bouquets of flowers. Dira received the interest and did not forget to hand over some money to pay for it.
Dira started driving his car. And when in the middle of the road, Dira's car accidentally passed Axell and Verrel as the driver.
"Eh, Xell... 'do not cake Dira anyway?" Ask Verrel to Axell.
"Lo saw it wrong." Axell replied, because Axell was busy with a laptop on his lap.
Seeing his friend who was reluctant to take his eyes off the laptop made Verrel snort angrily.
"Lo look ahead, Bro! Don't you see that mute laptop that you see." Verrel was a little stiff.
Reluctant to argue with his best friend, Axell closes his laptop screen and follows Verrel's line of sight. And it's true. The girl named Dira was indeed in front of Axell's car in the opposite direction.
"See! 'That Dira chick isn't it?" ask Verrel again.
"So, if you really are a girl. You want what?" ask Axell.
"Ck. Yes if it's true 'uh girl Dira, means my vision is not wrong, Xell." Answer Verrel lazy.
"Well, if not wrong, it means right. As far as I know it." replied Axell origin while re-opening his laptop screen.
"Damn Lo!" Umpat Verrel was upset with his best friend. While Axell just sniffed his shoulders indifferently.
...***...
Dira is in his car. The girl was rubbing the remains of tears that still seemed to flow with on her cheeks.
Sure enough, when eaten earlier, Dira had to cry when telling what she was facing right now. About the yearning he felt right now, about his life right now, even about the matchmaking his father decided.
All that he spilled while in the navel of Mama and her brother. The girl closed her eyes for a moment while enjoying the music she had deliberately played earlier.
Drrt...
📲 Nayla is Calling...
Dira's phone shook and immediately he picked up the phone that turned out to be from his best friend.
"Hallo, Nay,"
"(....)."
"Where."
"(....)."
"(....)."
"Ok, wait, I'm otw."
"(....)."
"Daddy..."
Tutt..
Dira disconnects the phone call from Nayla and rushes to the place mentioned by Nayla. Yes, Nayla asked Dira to meet her at one of the cafes.
About fifteen minutes of travel time, now Dira has arrived at the cafe requested by Nayla.
"Dira." call Nayla while waving one of her hands. Hearing an unfamiliar voice in his opinion, immediately made Dira turn her head.
Without waiting for a long time, Dira rushed closer to where Nayla was sitting accompanied by a guy who was none other than Verrel.
"Old old?" ask Dira.
"No, I've just been nyampe." Answer Nayla relax. Hearing Nayla's reply made Dira nod her head.
"Eh Dir, I saw you
down the street?" Chirped Verrel suddenly.
"Really, brother? Where's emang?" Tanya Dira couldn't believe it.
"So if it's not wrong at the red light, Deket florist." Answer Verrel.
"Oh, yeah." Answer Dira casually.
"Where's Abis Lo, Dir?" ask Nayla curiously.
"To the tomb, Nay. I miss Mama's late sister Dara." Reply Dira lirih.
"Kok Lo don't invite me anyway, Dir. I want to come along too." Nayla Protests.
"Gue was in a hurry, Nay. Suddenly I want to go there. Next week, we'll be there together?" Answer Dira.
"Really yes? Look out for Lo bo'ong." Nayla.
"Ck. When am I bo'ong anyway, Nay?" Dira clucked in annoyance. Seeing Dira's annoyed facial expression made Nayla giggle slowly.
"Yes-yes, honey, sorry." Nayla answered while hugging Dira.
...***...
"Bro, I want to go back, sleepy." Pamit Verrel on Axell. Now both are in Axell's workspace at his cafe. d'AXE cafe.
"I don't need an anther, do I get busy with it?" Axell asked while busy staring at his laptop screen.
"So busy you. I can do it myself, anyways I want to go back with Bastian." Answer Verrel.
Hearing Verrel's reply made Axell raise his eyebrows next to his.
"Emang Bastian here?" Axell's asking isn't sure.
"This is right here with Dira as well as the girl I want to go back." Verrel.
"Dira?" Repeat Axell.
"Yes, Dira, Dira was here. Nayla is rhyming." Verrel explained. Hearing Verrel's reply made Axell nod his head in understanding.
"Or not, Xell... The girl we just met on the street, it turns out to be Dira." Verrel.
"Keep, if Dira why?" Ask Axell cuek.
"Not cool Lo, Xell," Verrel protested.
"Keep if 'tuh girl really Dira I have to what, do you follow her? Spy on him, is that it? Make what?" Answer Axell lazily.
"That's not the time either, bro. 'That chick to the tomb earlier." Answer Verrel.
"What do I have to do with it?" Axell asked who was getting lazy to respond to his best friend.
"Gue think you both fit in. Equally cute. Byeah, say the same Lo make me more sleepy. Ok, I unplug." Verrel replied while standing up and walking away from Axell's room.
After Verrel's departure, Axell closed the screen of his laptop. The man was massaging his temple next door, as if his head was throbbing after working for a while while staring at his laptop screen.
Axell was looking at the financial statements of his d'AXE cafe which a few days ago was sent by one of his confidants at the cafe.
"Dira." Axell slowly. "Why did I so suddenly keep the same thought 'uh girl?" Axell muttered.
"But 'uh sweet chick too."
