Between Asa And Taste

Mpus

"Father go first" said Mr. Felix.

"Yes Pah. Be careful!" said Rian.

After Mr. Felix left, Rian immediately returned to his room. Resuming his duties because he must finish immediately. Before long, everything was done and Rian was ready to go to campus.

Just as he came out of his room, Rian found his phone ringing. Again, his concentration was interrupted when Maudi's name was clearly displayed on his phone screen.

"Hello," said Rian as cold as possible when his call was connected.

"What time are you on campus?" ask Maudi.

"Now to go" replied Rian.

"Can you pick me up?" ask Maudi.

A pick-up? Did ya? Rian's heart expanded instantly upon hearing that word. It's been a long time that he never picked up Maudi again. The miss seems to be solved at this time.

Ah no! Rian must realize that there is Rey in Maudi's life right now. He was trying to control his increasingly disillusioned heart.

"Please pick Rey up" replied Rian.

"Rian, Rey is sick and can't pick me up. Can you help me?" persuade Maudi.

Rian's heart melted as Maudi persuaded him. Finally he agreed and immediately set out to pick up Maudi before he went to campus.

"Rian," Maudi said as Rian arrived in front of his house.

"Lake in!" said Rian.

Rian tried his best to hide his happy feelings. He did not want Maudi to see how happy he was when he was in a car with him.

"What time are you home?" ask Maudi.

"Four hours" replied Rian.

His eyes glanced briefly at Maudi, but he immediately turned his face away as they looked into his eyes. His heart was pounding unbecoming. That feeling has taken hold of his heart.

"Can you not take me home later?" ask Maudi.

"Look at it later" said Rian.

"I also came home at four. If you don't mind, we can go home together. All of us repair our broken relationship" Maudi said.

"Repairing our broken relationship?" rian asked with a sneering tone.

"Rian, come! We are not children anymore" Maudi replied.

"Yes, I know we're not kids anymore. So there's no time to play around with time" Rian said.

Maudi was silent, he could only let out a long sigh as Rian was seen mocking him.

"So what do you want?" ask Maudi.

"I just want to go to college and make all my dreams come true" Rian replied.

"Without dating?" maudia asked unsure.

"Take a look" replied Rian.

"Search what?" maudia asked, already getting upset.

"Boyfriend," answered Rian flatly.

After that the atmosphere in the car was quiet. The two no longer spoke. Shut up and drift with each other's thoughts. Maudi clenched his hands when he heard Rian was going to find a girlfriend. It means he has no chance at all to get back with Rian.

"Down! It's here" said Rian.

"Yes" replied Maudi ketus.

With an annoyed face, Maudi came out and slammed the car door quite hard. Some of the people around the parking lot were staring at them. Rian was upset, but he tried to calm down.

BRUGH

"Sorry" said one of the freshmen who hit Rian.

"Are you from Indonesia?" ask Rian.

"Ah, yes. Are they from Indonesia too?" ask the new student.

"Rian," Rian replied nodding as he extended his hand.

"Riri Puspita Sari Nurmala Dewi" said Riri while replying to the hand.

"That's long" answered Rian.

"Hehe, just call Riri Mas." Riri smiled sweetly.

"Riri's? But not Rian, right?" rian Goda.

"Riri aja Mas," said Riri.

"Can I call you Mpus?" ask Rian.

"Mpus?" riri asked with a confused face.

"Ah, I can." said Riri.

Rian was amused by what he had done. This was the first time he had spoken so casually and familiarly with a woman. This is his first meeting.

"Why should Mpus?" ask Riri again.

"And his name is Riri Puspita what else was there? Well I took the name Mpus from Puspita, can I?" ask Rian.

"Whatever," said Riri.

"Oh, where are you going? How did you seem to rush to hit me?" ask Rian.

"Geez, I'm going to the cafeteria. I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" pamit Riri while running.

The canteen? Is he hungry or thirsty? It's funny to forget about stomach affairs just for meeting me.

Maudi looked at the incident and watched it with frustration. But when Rian saw Maudi, he immediately threw away his face and walked further away.

There was a sense of pleasure in Rian when he saw there was a jealous murat on Maudi's expression. The beautiful face was clearly staring dislike at what was happening to her and Riri.

Rian walks into the classroom and doesn't see Rey. Rey seems to be sick. He hadn't contacted Rey in a long time. Since Rey is close and announces a special relationship between the two, Rian has no longer contacted Rey. Vice versa.

Lecture began, Rian refocused and followed the learning with great enthusiasm. His ideals must be realized. Many have put their hopes on him.

"Rian," said Maudi when Rian had finished college.

"You want to go home?" ask Rian.

Maudi nodded with great enthusiasm.

"Come on! I'd like to see Rey, too" said Rian.

Maudi held back his steps.

"Why?" ask Rian.

"It's okay" Maudi replied.

Rian continued his steps. The two of them got into the car and immediately left the campus. However, suddenly Rian's car stopped when he saw Riri standing by the side of the road.

"Wanna go home?" rian asked after lowering his car glass.

"Yes," replied Riri.

"Let's go home together! But behind is okay?" bring Rian.

"Ah, no need. It will be disturbing" replied Riri.

"Don't worry. He's just my friend" Rian said. "We're friends again, right?" rian asked Maudi.

Maudi could only roll his eyeballs a sign if he did not like the presence of Riri.

"Where is your home? One way is Rian's house?" maudi asked Riri.

"No problem. We're also not in the same direction, but I'm gonna take you, right?" said Rian.

Riri was silent. He felt bad when he realized that Maudi did not accept his presence.

"Let's ride!" bring Rian.

"No need to Mas. I can do it myself" replied Riri.

"Don't refuse. Consider this our introduction. Let's get closer. We are both from Indonesia" said Rian.

"No need, thank you. Next time," said Riri.

Maudi was already smiling happily when he saw Riri reject Rian's invitation. But the unexpected right happened. Rian got out of the car and opened the car door for Riri.

"Lake in!" Rian's orders.

Riri immediately entered as Rian drew closer to her. The atmosphere is increasingly uncomfortable especially after the car starts to drive. Everything quiet. There was no song playing at the time.

"Pus, let's go to my friend's house first! Name's Rey. After that, I promise to take you home." Rian looked at Riri from the front view.

"We can take him home first before he goes to Rey's house" Maudi replied.

"Yes," replied Riri.

"Don't! Let you know my other friends. Rey is also Indonesian. We need to get to know each other. You are a new person so you have to have a lot of acquaintances" said Rian.

"If he doesn't want to do it don't force dong Ri. Let him go home" Maudi said.

"Pus, will you come with me first? Relax, I'm a good person. Seriously," said Rian.

Maudi kept quiet in annoyance as Rian ignored him and continued to persuade Riri to come along. While Riri was silent because he was confused by the situation in the car that felt increasingly uncomfortable.

Sometimes Rian glanced at Maudi and Riri. He saw both of them as beautiful. But his heart could not lie because until now his love was only for Maudi.

All his indifference to Maudi was just one of the tactics taught by Mia. Rian wants Maudi to change and be a good woman for him. Riri's presence turned out to have a big impact on Maudi's change of attitude towards her.

Maudi even looks jealous of Riri's presence. Rian clearly saw that from Maudi's attitude towards her.
