13.3 [May] A Business

I thought after I got home together yesterday and I kept my word, Kara won't bother me anymore. It turned out the same, he still approached me and sometimes also forced to pick me up. It doesn't really matter, because it's usually like that. But for now, I want to stay away from Kara.

I want to focus on solving my problems with Rhea. But it looks like I have to make sure Kara won't cause any more trouble. Because the existence of Kara between me and Rhea at this time even complicates things.

"May, come. Ntar lo's late."

I hurriedly got into the car before Kara cloned me once more.

"Lo daydreaming what the hell? Diclaxon twice is still diem." Ask Kara curiously.

"Just think of college work." My Kilah.

"This week is a lot of work? Don't forget to rest." Kara patted my head slowly.

To be honest, I was a little surprised by Kara's treatment just now. Although I actually know, it is a habit that Kara often does. But that's usually when I'm with Rhea, not me.

I just nodded, covering my shock and according to what Kara said.

"Kara, don't pick up later. I still have business with Zayn. Maybe go home with him." I lied to Kara a little so she wouldn't pick me up.

"Yaudah, I'll have the same business as the community's children." Sahut Kara complied with my request.

Today I came faster than the practice hours, because I wanted to sing first as much. But it seems like I lost quickly to Zayn. Because I saw he was already in the room and was fiddling with his guitar.

I hesitantly walked into the music room, joining Zayn who had been inside since.

"Eh, sorry. I didn't know there were people, I thought there was Zayn."

I was a little surprised when I opened the door and found Rhea who was practicing guitar with Zayn.

"No, no bother. Just come in May."

Zayn invited me to come in and watch Rhea practice.

I was just watching Rhea and Zayn who were busy with guitars. It seems, Rhea has started to be able to play guitar smoothly as she wishes.

"Well, Rhea's cool." I was enthusiastic while applauding.

But Rhea remained silent and looked at me without interest. Honestly speaking, being stared at like that by Rhea makes me a little nervous.

"I trained him."

"Why? I've been practicing music for a long time, the kids are still in class."

I could hear Rhea and Zayn's conversation faintly. It seems like Rhea is a little uncomfortable because of my existence.

"No, I'm tired. Abis there's still my class too."

I could see Rhea who had directly exited the room without looking at me in the slightest. Zayn followed Rhea and they continued chatting at the door, not knowing what they were talking about. But vaguely, I was like hearing Rhea say my name.

"May, let's practice. The kids are on this date."

I gasped a little when Zayn called my name, because I was too focused on daydreaming. Thinking about Rhea and her attitude earlier.

"Think about Rhea?" Zayn asked as if he could read my mind.

"Yes. Rhea is still mad at me like I am. I want to apologize and get better with Rhea, but I'm confused how to do it because Rhea is now a pendiem really."

I looked down sad, still remembering Rhea just now, who had not seen me at all. I have to hurry and get Rhea to make up. But I don't know what to do. Because Rhea never responds to me and only speaks a thousand languages.

"Calm down, wait a minute. I think Rhea still needs a little more time. Sounds selfish maybe, but everyone takes a different time to recover." Said Zayn trying to calm me down with his wise words. To be honest, I was surprised that Zayn could talk like that.

We then trained until afternoon. We spent some time training today. The follow-up to the practice this time could slightly shift my mind about Rhea.

But no matter what I try, this guilt is still disturbing. It makes me unable to focus on doing anything else. Honestly, this feeling is so annoying. How do you get rid of this guilt?

"Where can I make up for Rhea? I'm tired of feeling guilty all the time" I muttered confused myself.

"Gue help Mei, but I think you should give Rhea time. I think Rhea is still trying to recover her heart because of Kara."

I nodded, because I really didn't know what to do. Rhea's attitude was puzzling, she really didn't give me any loopholes. I can't guess at all what Rhea meant every time I looked at me in silence.

"Come, continue the exercise again. Now we have fun. Just relax."

Zayn invited us to restart training. But the rehearsal this time, we had enough fun. We just play random songs according to the mood.

I think whatever I do now is enough. True, Zayn said, I have to make time for Rhea. Maybe Rhea took longer than me.

Zayn and I just got out of the building at about eight in the evening. Yes, we had to practice and have fun. I'm so grateful to Zayn today, he helped me so much. From taking care of the practice to accompanying me daydreaming Rhea.

"Come, come home with me."

Zayn took my hand and helped me ride his very high bike. I hate riding bikes like this, but the exception is Zayn. Because I don't know when, I love riding a bike like this when I'm with the owner, Zayn.

"May, you came home late?" Zayn cried out a little because he lost to the sound of the wind.

"Yes, no papa." My heart is also in a loud voice for Zayn to hear.

Zayn immediately drove his motorbike at a slightly increased speed. We walked down the streets of Bandung that were pretty loose today. It's cold, but it's soothing. Looks like going around town at night will be my favorite thing after the night market. But with a note if it's with Zayn. Because I don't know when, I'm getting comfortable with that guy.

I don't know what Zayn's purpose is to take me around the streets tonight like this. But for sure, what Zayn did comfort me a little, making me forget what had been a burden on my mind. If that was Zayn's goal, he'd have succeeded.

"Thank you, it's antherin. Thanks also for taking me around the streets of Bandung kayak earlier."

"You're welcome, I'm happy if you like."

"Udah ya May, think enough about yesterday. Now you're in the house, you're still sleeping."

After saying that, Zayn grabbed my shoulder and made me turn my back to Zayn. Slowly, Zayn pushed me to enter the house and he also rushed home.

As Zayn ordered before I went home, I cleaned up and prepared for a break. But before that, I tried to send a chat to Rhea. Ask him how he is and tell him to meet.

Me

Rhea, whatnews?

If I ask you to meet me, can't you?

I want to talk to you.

I sent the message and immediately put my phone on the nightstand. I don't expect my message to be answered. But at least, I want Rhea to read my message.
