Brother's Best friend

Chapter 23

News of Kalila and Theo's wedding had already spread in the office. All of Kalila's teammates screamed hysterically when they found out who Kalila's future husband was. He was the son of the President, their young vice-president, even younger than Kalila.

All female office employees spontaneously broke their hearts because their office idol, vice President Theodore, would give up her single status and marry Kalila, an employee of the finance team. Many are sad but also many support their relationship.

The head of the Bu Kabag finance team where Kalila's team was not too surprised by the news. He had suspected there was a relationship between them when the deputy president asked Kalila to deliver the financial statement file directly to the deputy president's room.

Dina, who is famous for being in the team, shouted happily because her best friend and colleague heard the news.

"Hello.." answered Kalila raised a video call of her mobile phone which turned out to be Dina from her co-worker.

Kalila who had thought this was immediately keeping her phone away from her ear heard the hysteria of all her teammates from the video call.

"Kalila.."so everything made Kalila smile grimacing guiltily not telling her everything from the beginning.

"Yes friends.."what a sweet smile Kalila.

"Ah you have the heart to be. since when this happened.."seru Dina showed me the wedding invitation card he received earlier.

"Haha.hahaha.sorry.." replied Kalila while scratching her hair that is not itchy.

"We'll come to your house after work, anyway you have to treat us. And explain about this." said Dina still pointed at the wedding invitation card that contained a photo of Kalila and Theo during prewedding. Kalila just laughed and hung up her phone.

"Ma, I want to go to the minimarket for a while."seru Kalila who answered yes by her mother.

Kalila walked down the sidewalk to the minimarket near her home. He wants to buy something for his teammates later.

Explanation later is not possible for a moment so Kalila may need a lot of stock snacks maybe.

In the distance, a pair of eyes watched Kalila's path leading towards the minimarket near her home. The eyes of longing and love are in those eyes.

After all this time, you're still the same. Beautiful and cute, my feelings are still the same for you, even after a long time we parted does not make my heart move to another heart. The inner man in the distance who looked at Kalila was gloomy.

"Makasih mbk.." said Kalila at the minimarket cashier after finishing shopping with carrying 2 bags of groceries that are not too heavy because they only contain snacks out of the minimarket door.

Kalila placed the bags briefly next to the minimarket outdoor table and sat for a while enjoying her favorite chocolate ice cream. Kalila really likes all the things about chocolate from ice, drinks, snacks that smell of chocolate.

"You still like chocolate ice cream?"ask someone approaching Kalila's table to sit down.

Kalila who was enjoying her chocolate ice cream suddenly looked up at the face standing in front of her. Kalila stood surprised until the plastic chair she was sitting on fell down.

"Sister Fredy.." sizzled Kalila feeling her chest rumble.

"How are you.."What a man Kalila recognized as Fredy, his past man, his former lover, as well as his best friend, was, also the man who broke off their relationship when Kalila became more affectionate and in love with the man.

The first man to make Kalila know love, the first man to introduce the meaning of courtship to her. The man who also left her because of her parents' matchmaking.

"I think I surprised you?"said Fredy again felt he did not get an answer from Kalila's lips.

"I have to go home." said Kalila spontaneously about to take the bags of his groceries.

"You still mad at me?"fredy whispered softly, the sad tone of the man's voice sounded.

Karina still did not budge not answering or looking at the man.

"We have no relationship anymore" said Kalila Lirih.

"Can't we be friends like we used to?" fredy's question sounded clear.

"I'm sorry, I think someone once told me, there's no friendship between a man and a woman, maybe one of them has feelings." Kalila made Fredy's face slip, he was the one who said that to Kalila when he ended the love relationship between them because Fredy had to obey his parents' desire to be betrothed to the son of his papa business partner.

"Sorry.." said Fredy.

Kalila turned to look at Fredy's face which was stared back at Kalila's sad gaze, there were eyes of longing for him but Kalila did not want to big head.

He also missed the man but somehow, the man was the first one able to shake his heart but the first man who broke his heart.

Until the arrival of Theo who unhesitatingly loved her for who she was, gave up her whole life just for her. Until Kalila must be willing to submit to accept the sincerity of Theo's feelings.

"It's all over, and sister's married anyway. And I will also get married." Kalila explained, reiterating that only Theo is in her heart right now, even though she really misses this man.

"Married? Ah, congratulations." said Fredy bitterly still staring at Kalila clingy longing.

"See you." said Kalila again.

"I still love you. "said Fredy again, making Kalila suddenly look at Fredy's face that radiated honesty in his eyes.

"But I don't, I love my future husband?" said Kalila firmly went to leave Fredy himself pegged in front of the minimarket.

Kalila's chest was tight, rumbling fast and beating fast. The drying of Kalila's phone in her pocket made Kalila flinch.

He picked up the phone and took the call without seeing who was calling him.

"Hello..."

"..."

"I'm from the minimarket near home. Buy something."ansaid Kalila still inserted jitters at his words.

"..."

"It's okay, I'm fine." said Kalila nervously as if Theo knew what was happening to her right now.

"..."

"Ah, my teammates will come to the house. And I bought snacks to chat with them later." replied Kalila.

"..."

"Yes, here I go home."

"..."

"What do you mean?"kalila said as she walked home.

"..."

"You don't believe me?"kalila lirih.

"..."

"You don't believe me?"kalila said pouting.

"..."

"I am too."

Kalila closed her phone, her chest rumbled, for some reason Theo's premonition was always right, when she was about to go home after meeting someone in her past made Theo feel bad until Theo immediately contacted her.

Kalila felt guilty after receiving a call from Theo.
