Antique Boyfriend

Part 34: The Gideon Strategy

Coming home from college, Gideon had a very bright face. Whistling and twirling the motorbike keys, the man entered his house. Mama and Karin, who were watching the soap opera, were surprised to see Gideon's expression.

"So good looking, Bang? Just got a roundup, huh?" ask Karin.

"It's better than getting a wedge, Dek. You can be a soul mate."

Gideon sat between his mother and Karin, then hugged the two women together.

"Stupid? You got a new boyfriend, Yon?" ask Mama.

"No, Ma. But Gideon wants to go back with Thalita, Mama's future favorite daughter-in-law."

"Huh? How can you, Bang? Doesn't Thalita have a boyfriend, does she? Is her new boyfriend breaking up and turning back on her brother?" ask Karin.

"Well, the good news is there, Dek. Apparently, that guy is not Thalita's new boyfriend, he's just her cousin" Gideon replied with a big smile.

"Where do you know?" ask Karin curiously.

Karin did not expect, if the guy who said Thalita's new boyfriend turned out to be just his cousin. Karin felt close to Thalita, but did not dare to ask. Deasy is also Thalita's best friend, and doesn't seem to know. Thalita managed to close her secret meeting.

"So Brother was talking to that guy. Name, Moses. He's Talita's father's son."

"Then, it can be scammed. Deasy said, That guy is really cool. Is it really, Bang?"

"It's cool too, brother."

Gideon brushed his hair and acted pretentious, making Karin a manyun.

"So, is there still a chance for Mama to have a daughter-in-law Thalita dong?" ask Mama girang.

"Of course, Ma. And, soon enough, this handsome Mama's son will be back with Thalita again. That Mas Moses promised, will help Gideon back with Thalita," said Gideon with a big laugh.

"How sure are you, Bang?" ask Karin.

"Kin dong, Deck. Kan Mas Moses himself said he wanted to help Brother. He also said that Thalita was actually still in love with Brother, just a sprain, because Brother was once close to Lily," said Gideon turned sad.

"Yo sukurin! Besides, it could be that you are tempted by Mak Lampir, even though you already have Thalita. They are not level to compare, like diamonds like agate," grumbled Karin.

"Whose stone?" ask Mama.

"Yo obviously Mak Lampir, Thalita's time of agate?"

"Yes kirain, Rin. The proof is that your brother was tempted by the charm of agate, hahaha."

Gideon was upset, because Mama and Karin laughed at him. Gideon was very sorry for his actions. Leaving Thalita the diamond, for Lily the agate.

"It's good that, Mama supports you to make another return with Thalita," said Mama.

Gideon kissed his mother's cheek, stroked Karin's head, and passed into his room whistling.

*****

Lily smiled, looking at the video she took while at Winny's boarding house. The guy who's making out with the girl in front of the hostel, Thalita's new boyfriend. More precisely, who is said to be Thalita's new boyfriend. Because obviously the guy already has a girlfriend, evident from the video, it could be Thalita just me dating the guy. Or worse, the guy's affair.

"What if I send this video to Gideon? Surely the guy will be seneng, his ex turned out to be just a victim of a freshwater monitor lizard, who likes to cheat and playin girls people. And Gideon will thank me for making him smile."

Lily smiled to herself, imagining that Gideon would soon fall back into her arms. It used to be that Lily only intended to use Gideon's inauguration to increase her toxic account followers, but now, it turns out that Lily is in real love with the guy.

"Gideon now does not look antique anymore, but he is now very handsome, I became more and more fond of him."

Closing her eyes, Lily pictured Gideon's face, and what the boy would do, if he showed her the video he kept.

"Duh, what the hell is this Buntelan, disturb people fantasize," Lily grumbled.

Lily puts down her phone, and ignores Winny's call, until finally her phone stops ringing.

"Rench is also finally Buntelan," Lily said with a laugh.

The girl then fiddled with her phone, sending a video to Gideon. Laughing happily because the gray tick immediately turned blue, even Gideon was typing.

"Well, fast response from Gideon. She must have been typing a thank you note for me" Lily said.

Ting...

[Still make his video post🙏] ~ from Gideon.

"Did I say, Gideon must have sent me a video, so he could have his ex, hihihi. I am so smart."

Lily immediately typed in a reply message for Gideon.

[Together, Honey. Love you]

There was no reply from Gideon, even Lily's chat was not read even though Gideon was online. Receiving a video message from Lily, Gideon immediately forwarded it to Thalita.

[Honey, your boyfriend is cheating. Just do it, and then you turn it back to Brother, hahaha.] ~ from Gideon.

Thalita sewot got the video submission, also chat Gideon who invited her back. The girl immediately replied to him with a bit of roughness.

[People are cute and free, they can cheat too. Different from Brother, already mediocre face, cheating also the same Mak Lampir.] ~ from Thalita.

[Father's face is mediocre, which is important, Brother has a beautiful girlfriend.] ~ from Gideon.

[Beautiful huh? Yes, right selebgram with thousands of followers huh? Forgot.] ~ from Thalita.

Impatiently, Gideon called Thalita, because the reply to a chat message made him more confused with the girl. By calling, Gideon could hear Thalita's voice and slightly treat her kangen.

"What the hell, Bang! How's the calls?" ask Thalita ketus.

"Abang called because Abang kangen, honey. Listen to Thalita's voice, can ngobatinya kangennya brother."

"Glut, pret, gombal mukiyo. Males got pulled over me again, Bang. Cepet said, would you like to call Thalita?"

"You want to take it back" said Gideon to the point.

"Relieve it!"

"Well, right? Well, thank you, honey. You are indeed the best boyfriend, the most beautiful, the most understanding too. You are the best darling."

"Health, Bang?"

"Healthy dong, honey. This brother always take care of health, so as not to get sick and make you worry."

"Would you take medicine?"

"Listen your voice is a great mood booster for Brother. So you don't have to take any more medicine."

"Bye."

Thalita shuts down the phone, leaving Gideon shuffled. Surely the girl was a manyun, and her lips went forward a few inches. Ah, Gideon is getting along with Thalita.
