Nara still lowered her gaze from Ravin who was now sitting on the sofa beside her.
It had already been five minutes since Ravin had managed to calm Nara from her cries.
Both are now in silence, only the sound of the second clock on the wall of Nara's room is the only sound between them.
"Nar ." said Ravin breaking the silence between them.
"Yes ." answered Nara still lowered her face.
"Where are you? Did you say you were sick?" ask Ravin
Nara shook her head while still looking down.
"It's okay, just not feeling well" replied Nara.
Ravin stuck out his hand to touch Nara's forehead, and it managed to make Nara puff up and turn to Ravin.
"It's still hot" Ravin said.
Though Ravin already knew Nara's body was indeed a high fever, it was felt when Nara hugged her body earlier.
"It's just a normal fever, Rav" Nara said.
Nara turned her gaze in another direction as her eyes met with Ravin who was looking at her.
"You have a high fever. Om says you don't want to be seen by a doctor or taken to a hospital. Why?" ask Ravin.
"I'm not feeling well, Rav. No need to see a doctor" answered Nara.
Ravin sighed, looking irritated by Nara's attitude.
"Why are you doing this, Nar?"
"You mean?" ask Nara.
"Well, you haven't wanted to leave the house for a week, you keep shutting yourself in the room.
Don't want to eat, don't want rich activities usually"
"I just want to be alone with Rav again"
"You realize no Nar, your attitude like this makes Papi you think" said Ravin.
"Oh . so you came here because Papi's thinking isn't me.
Did Papi ask you to come here?" ask Nara.
"I came here because I care about you and Om Hendra" Ravin said.
"It means right you were forced to come here because Papi asked you to come" said Nara disappointed.
"I didn't have to and I came because I care about you" Ravin said.
Nara turned her face back to Ravin as her tears returned without asking.
"You don't have to lie to Rav. I know you don't care about me anymore because now you have Rachel" Nara said.
Ravin shook his head faintly while sighing.
I never thought about his best friend.
"Nara, how long will you continue to be so childish?" ravin said.
"So you think I'm childish?" nara looked at.
The corner of his heart was hurt hearing Ravin's words like that.
"That's not just my mind, but the reality. Seeing you acting like this what's her name if it's not childish?"
"Keep me childish, what do you care" Nara said.
"Obviously I care, that's why I came here.
You are my best friend Nar, whatever has happened between us will not change the friendship that we have been in so far"
"I don't want you to be rich" said Ravin.
"You should hate Rav, hate me. Not even good like this" said Nara while covering her face with both hands.
"Why should I hate you?" ravin asked not to understand.
"Because knowing you don't hate me and still care about me even makes my heart hurt more, because the reality is we are only friends" inner Nara.
Ravin pulled both of Nara's hands off her face, making Nara puff up with a teary face.
Ravin stared into Nara's two eyes.
"I'm disappointed in you, but that doesn't mean I hate you, Nar.
What you do is a mistake, but I'm not as petty as it is to hate you just because of that mistake.
After all, you are among the people who mean to me" said Ravin sincerely.
"And I hope you think of yourself as meaningful. Don't be like this.
Many people love you, especially Om Hendra.
Do you want to see him collapse again because he thinks of you?"
Nara shook her head quickly.
"Not Rav" Nara replied.
"Then, please don't be selfish and childish.
Don't just think about your own heart, but also think about the things around you" Ravin said, wiping away Nara's tears.
Nara nodded slowly while also rubbing her two eyes that were still watering.
"Sorry, Rav" he said slowly.
"Don't apologize. You better fix yourself.
Don't be like this, locking yourself up and torturing yourself won't change anything and respect the feelings of others"
Yes, it will not change anything including Ravin's heart, because Rachel's name is now in there.
But, uh,
does Ravin appreciate Rachel?
Even she lied to her lover for this one thing.
*********
Rachel who went home from college herself decided to go straight to the apartment.
But before coming there, Rachel decided to stop by the supermarket first.
He wanted to buy some snacks and ingredients to cook dinner. Since Rachel and Ravin decide to have dinner together later, Rachel thinks of cooking and dinner in the apartment alone.
He also drives away boredom, because he has to wait for Ravin to come.
It had been about twenty minutes surrounding the convenience store with the trolley he had pushed.
Already half the trolley was filled with the things Rachel needed.
Then Rachel pushed her trolley towards the meat chiller.
Either because in this section of the meat chiller row looks quite lonely, Rachel again felt like someone was watching her.
Trying to look right and left, Rachel found no suspicious person.
"Any .none is suspicious. But why do I feel kept an eye on ya" inner Rachel.
Feeling increasingly uncomfortable, Rachel hurriedly took the meat she needed and passed away from there.
Because it's too rushed Rachel doesn't realize she's misguided. That Rachel was about to pay to the cashier but she instead went back into the hallway of household needs.
Rachel's feelings suddenly became uneasy.
As Rachel continued to push her trolley, suddenly there was a man dressed in all black who was standing at the end of the hallway while approaching Rachel.
Rachel immediately felt panic and fear, as intense as her trauma over the events of Randy used to be imagined.
Fear and panic make Rachel's brain feel dead end.
Bruock!
"Hey the right way dong"
Rachel who accidentally hit someone behind her, made the steps of the all-black man stop and immediately left once she knew there was someone else there.
Knowing the person disappeared, made Rachel's legs feel limp. Suddenly the girl's body fell on the floor.
"Ehh .. ehh " Seeing Rachel who collapsed down made the person who was hit by her was shocked.
The person crouched down in front of Rachel to see her condition.
"Well, is it okay?" tanyakanya.
Rachel who was still lowered with her hands propped up on the floor was only able to nod her head.
A feeling of tightness and weakness attacked him.
Fortunately there was someone else who he hit behind him earlier, otherwise I don't know what the all-black guy would do to him.
Although there are many cctv here, Rachel still feels scared.
Maybe this is the trauma effect that still exists on him due to previous events.
"Rachel .. This is you, isn't it, Rachel?"
Puffing slowly, Rachel looked at the person who had accidentally saved her.
And a little surprised when he found that person he knew.
"Record .. "
"Rachel, let this be you" Edward said as surprised as he was.
"Why you?" tanyanya's worried.
Rachel shook her head.
"Gue is nothing" Rachel replied with her breathing beginning to settle down.
Then he turned his head for a moment to make sure the person was completely absent.
And he breathed again.
"The truth is okay?" edward was still worried.
Rachel nodded again, then tried to get up.
"Let's help" said Edward while holding Rachel's hands.
Not refusing, Rachel stood up with Edward's help.
Tidying herself up for a moment, Rachel then looked at Edward who was still standing in front of her.
"What's here again?" ask Rachel.
"I'm shopping again" Edward replied pointing to the trolley he was carrying.
Some snacks and men's needs are there.
"Cock here?" rachel asked Edward for a laugh.
"Emang should be asked, right? This is a Chel supermarket, a public place" Edward said, chuckling.
Rachel snorted loudly.
"Yes, he means here. Your home is not the area. It can even be said to be far away" said Rachel.
Stopping his laughter, Edward smiled at Rachel.
"So you still want my house?" edward smiled happily.
"No, why do I want to hang around" Rachel replied annoyed.
Rachel does know where Edward's house is, she's been there once.
At that time Edward invited her out and because forced by her Mami, Rachel was forced to come along.
As they were about to drive Rachel home, Edward stopped by her house to pick up something.
Rachel was just waiting in the car.
Just that, there was nothing more between the two of them.
"I now live in this area, I just built a new cafe here.
So I bought an apartment not far from this area" replied Edward.
"The apartment here? Means it's Ravin's apartment building" Rachel's inner.
Yes, because there is only one apartment building close to this area.
"You're shopping in this area yourself?" edward asked as he glanced at Rachel's shopping trolley.
"Emm. That, I'm going to a friend's house. And in this area too" replied Rachel clumsily.
Don't let Edward know, Ravin bought him an apartment. Maybe later he complained to his mother.
The business will be long if you deal with the Mami.
"Oh .. " Edward nodded his head.
"So you're done shopping? If you've come let me anter to your friend's place, I happen to be finished too" asked Edward.
"That's okay" Rachel refused in a hurry.
"Why?"
"Gue can go alone, not far away"
"But I see that you're rich again not good. Your face is a bit like that, mending me deliver" forced Edward.
"Gue said no need. You know I don't like being forced" Rachel said stubbornly.
It could be dangerous if Edward finds out Rachel is lying and it's dangerous if Ravin finds out Rachel's in Edward's room.
"You sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure"
"Yaudah, if that's what I bring to the front of the supermarket?
I'm still worried about you falling rich" Edward said.
The man's attention has never changed before.
"It's only up to the front" said Edward reassured.
Rachel thought for a moment.
It's true that Edward also drove him to the front, because he was still afraid of the man.
At least someone must accompany her to reach the crowd.
It was impossible for the person to approach him again if in a crowded place.
"Where?" edward asked Rachel.
Nodding then Rachel pulled her trolley.
"Just until the front yes, I don't want any coercion after this" said Rachel firmly who was replied resigned by Edward.
"Yes ." replied Edward.
The two also went together to pay for their respective groceries at the cashier.
