Between Asa And Taste

Culverts

That afternoon was a very heartwarming atmosphere for Mr. Felix. Rian tried to convince Mr. Felix that his figure could not be replaced by anyone. All Rian's struggle is simply to make Mr. Felix proud of him, just as Rian boasts of Mr. Felix.

"We don't have any blood ties, Pah. But I love Papa and Sister Mia as sincere as my heart. I want this relationship to be timeless. Until whenever Papa remains my Papa," said Rian.

"You're my son, Rian. You are my son" said Mr. Felix.

"Yes Pah. I'm Papa's son" said Rian.

Mr. Felix has repeatedly referred to Rian as his son. He just wants Rian not to consider anyone his father, other than himself.

The college holiday has been passed by Rian with full of meaningful activities. The thought of Maudi has been accumulated material from Mr. Arics. But not when he first entered in the third semester.

"Rian," said Maudi.

Rian's heart trembled at the voice of the woman he loved.

"Hi," said Rian coldly.

"You see Rey didn't?" ask Maudi.

DEG.

Rian's heart stopped beating. Maudi asked Rey. Though Rian was already confident if Maudi greeted him to disturb him.

"No" answered Rian.

"Oh," said Maudi as he left Rian.

Rian clenched his hand. Chests rumbling. Upset by all of Maudi's attitudes and treatment of him. While elsewhere, Maudi seemed to smile cynically looking at Rian's face.

"You think I can't pay back what you've done, Rian? I'll make you go back begging to ask me to come back to you. Let's see later" murmured Maudi.

Maudi often appeared in front of Rian. But now he deliberately did not say hello even consider not seeing the existence of Rian.

The first day of entering college in the third semester became a burden for Rian. He feels that Maudi continues to haunt him. Wherever he went, Maudi was always in front of him.

"Haii," called Maudi as he waved his hand.

Rian who heard Maudi's voice immediately looked at the beautiful woman with a strange feeling. Especially when his hands waved with lips that adorned his beautiful face.

"You going home now?" maudi asked one of Rian's classmates who was standing next to him.

Rian's smile now began to dim. He swallowed his saliva as Maudi held the hands of another man of his class. And Rey? That question was spinning in his head at the moment.

Rian again swallowed the bitterness of life at this moment. He immediately returned home after seeing Maudi getting away from his eyes.

His bag he threw in any direction. His body he dropped on a large mattress that was very soft. But unfortunately he did not feel comfortable from the expensive and luxurious bed. His heart was in chaos and very sick.

The shadow of Maudi with his attitude managed to shake the heart of Rian that he had arranged as best as possible. His breathing is irregular. He's upset himself. His inability to control himself left him disappointed in himself.

The momentary ringing of the phone distracted Rian's thoughts and feelings. He grabbed his phone and immediately answered his call when he saw Mia's name on his phone screen.

"Rian, how was your lecture today?" ask Mia.

"Okay" answered Rian.

That's Mia. He who knows that today is the first day Rian entered college immediately asked about Rian's lecture. This form of attention is small to Mia but has a very big impact on Rian.

Mood Rian who was not good, made Mia realize that right from her tone. But it's not Rian if it can be open to Mia. After Mia persuades him, Rian is open about his feelings.

"You lost again?" ask Mia.

"Losing?" ask Rian back.

"Maudi managed to make you collapse like this. That means you lose" Mia replied.

Rian silent. Yes, he did lose. He realized that Maudi had managed to mess him up all day.

Only to Mia, Rian could tell such an open story. It's not like Mr. Felix let the man find out for himself.

"Find another woman who can make you forget about Maudi. But remember, he doesn't interfere with your study time or your company. Find a good one," said Mia.

"Where?" asked Rian innocently.

"In the culvert," Mia replied annoyedly.

"Huh?" ask Rian.

"Rian, you're all grown up. Where should women find time? You look for it on campus. There are no more women than Maudi" replied Mia.

"The only woman I like is Maudi" Rian said.

"It opens your eyes and your heart. There are still a lot of good women around you" said Mia.

"Yes, yes" said Rian.

After he gets a directive from Mia about Maudi, Rian prides himself on an offer from Mr. Aric for his future.

"But still, if you move like this, it will hinder the extraordinary offer. Careful. Don't take the wrong step" said Mia.

Rian convinces Mia if he can realize the offer from Mr. Aric it. He also shared a misunderstanding with Mr. Felix about the offer.

"Rian, Papa is so because he loves you too much. Please don't disappoint Papa! Papa has high hopes on your shoulder" said Mia.

That sentence was even very poultice in Rian's head. It doesn't really make it a burden. Maybe that was more of a motivation for him. But unfortunately after being in contact with Maudi, Rian makes all that a burden.

For Rian, Maudi's presence and Mr. Felix's expectations are the opposite. He was faced with choosing between despair and the taste that was struggling in his heart. But Mia always tried to mediate her anxiety. Although the solution Mia gave him could not live at all until now.

After the conversation ended, Rian hugged the pillow. He looked at the pillow as if it were Maudi. Slowly his lips smiled happily at the shadow of the beautiful woman. But suddenly a picture of Mia and Mr. Felix appears to remind Rian.

BRUGHHS

The pillow was thrown about a decoration until it fell to the floor.

"Maudi, don't ruin my dreams. Because if my dreams are ruined, it means I'm destroying my father and brother's dreams." Rian muttered.

The restlessness did not end until Mr. Felix returned home. As usual, Mr. Felix can guess what happened to him. It's just that this time Mr. Felix's treatment of her looks more relaxed.

"Eat! Pretending to be happy takes energy" said Mr. Felix.

Rian who heard that sentence could only laugh and say yes. He does need more energy to keep smiling every time he sees Maudi with others.

"Mrs. Aric didn't call you today?" ask Mr. Felix.

"No," Rian replied as he shook his head.

"Good," said Mr. Felix.

"What's so good?" ask Rian.

"At the very least, he didn't add to the burden of your mind today." Syndir Mister Felix.

Rian could only shut up. He cannot evade. Mr. Felix returned to his room after he had finished eating without discussing Maudi.

Tumben Papa didn't talk about Maudi today? Is it because Papa is bored?

Rian went into his room and turned on the television. He lay on his bed and grabbed his cell phone. A message he received from Maudi. His heart was arguing. After letting the message go long enough, Rian finally read it.

Rian's disappointment returns when Maudi sends him a message just to ask Rey. He threw his phone at the end of his bed.

"What do you want Maudi? Glad you made my head hurt?" rian grumbled while ruffling his black hair violently.
