20. Ex-Friendly

The atmosphere remained silent shortly after Lilian's departure. Nadifa cleared her throat to neutralize the atmosphere and sat down followed by a woman who was none other than Nesti.

" Ehm.., why are you here. You're not following me with Lian, are you...?" nadifa asked, but it made Hesti smile.

" How's Diff...?" the woman who is none other than Hesti.

" Thank God be kind..," said Nadifa without looking at Hesti.

" Thank God. I hope Lillian is fine too" said Hesti but made Nadifa upset.

" I ask you again, what do you want to come here ?. Do what Lo nongol again in front of Lian. You know how bad Lo is, and how hurt Lian is because of Lo...?!" tanya Nadifa riled up.

" Yes I know. I'm sorry, and I want to apologize Dif..," said Hesti.

" It doesn't matter !. Make him, you don't matter. My advice, it's better that Lo don't want to meet Lian than Lo makes her hurt just as rich..," said Nadifa while looking at Nesti with a hateful gaze.

" You're angry with me...?" asked Hesti with a clear face.

" Bod*h question !. I'm sure I'm angry after knowing what Lo did to Lillian first. Fortunately he had a family who cared for him so he could survive the cursed act of the thug. But if it happens to me, maybe I've killed myself because of the evil act Lo...!" nadifa said.

" Lo don't know what happened, don't make conclusions too late if Lo ga tau sits the problem..," said Hesti while looking at Nadifa's face with a sharp gaze.

" Lo mean, Lian's story was a lie...?!" ask Nadifa.

" No lie, but not one hundred percent really.," said Hesti while leaning his body on the back of the chair.

" Don't be convoluted, speak clearly or I'll pull it out now...!" nadifa said annoyed.

Hesti smiled and began to make up stories to influence Nadifa.

" I went to Sodara's house I made a debt, but I didn't make Lian make a move for Gue. Precisely Lian who maksa follow, he said he did not have the same I. But it turns out he and his father who menggejakan Gue and Sodara I by calling the Police. Because there was once a transaction se** so sodara I got hit by apesnya. He was arrested and tried like a criminal including me. Lucky while in prison I became a straight man and ga neko-neko, so I can be free quickly. So it's clear who's the bad guy here ?. I'm just a victim of Dif. Lian and her evil father" said Nesti trying to convince Nadifa.

" I don't believe it..," said Nadifa.

" I swear to Dif !. Lian and her father were trapping Gu."," hesti's words were cut off because a loud slap landed on his cheek.

" Flame !!"

The loud slap made Hesti shocked to the point of falling from the chair. Hesti stared at the person who had slapped him. But a moment later, Nesti looked nervous. He was ashamed to have been caught lying.

" Not satisfied Lo make my life a mess until Lo must slander I ?!. Do you think the police are also bod*h because people without evidence even won Lo and Lo sodara that...?!" lillian asked loudly with a dead red face.

Hesti tried to get up with great difficulty. Lilian and Nadifa did not help at all. They stood up while staring furiously at Hesti. Around them people just watch without intervening.

" Don't mention my name anymore because Lo ain't worth it. From that day on, Lo was no longer my friend. Don't get too familiar or nyapa I wherever we meet. Let's just say we never knew him at all. Understand...?!" lillian asked as she brushed off the hand of Hesti outstretched towards her.

Nadifa smiled and grabbed Lilian and led her away from Hesti.

" Hesti.., West. After that day, you were still unconscious too. You try to influence me with Lo's silly story because Lo wants to keep me away from Lian. Do you think I'm bod*h and eat the same boogey Lo ?. Don't dream !. Once a loser Lo keep a loser tau...?!" jerek Nadifa cynical.

" Please give me a chance to explain everything. I deliberately said rich so that Lian would come back and deny everything. My only goal is one, I want Lian to apologize...!" hesti said half-screaming to make Lilian and Nadifa look at each other while smiling meaningfully.

" We go now yuk Dif..," Lilian asked as she grabbed Nadifa's arm.

" Oh...!" sahut Nadifa enthusiastically.

Then Lilian and Nadifa stepped side by side leaving Nesti. They simply ignored Hesti's words. Hesti also peeked in place without being able to do anything. He stared at the departure of the two women who had been his best friend with a sad look.

While continuing to step Lilian also tightened her hand grip on Nadifa's arm until the girl grimaced.

" Sshhhh.., ill Li..," said Nadifa lirih to Lilian's surprise.

" Oops, sorry Dif..," Lilian said as she hurriedly removed her hand.

" Gapapa, just a little scuff..," said Nadifa with a smile.

" I didn't think he could be free that fast. And I don't even know why he knows we're here. Let him not follow us Dif..," said Lilian worriedly.

" It may not be, at least, a coincidence. The important thing is that you hit him and all of Lo's uneg-uneg all this time. I'm sure Lo's slap was quite hard because Lo's palm was on her cheek earlier.", said Nadifa.

" Yes Dif, it feels like my palm sampe tingling gini so hard I hit him earlier..," said Lilian while staring at his palm to make Nadifa smile.

" I hope after this we can escape from the shadow of Hesti, the psycho ex-friend..," said Nadifa while emphasizing the word psycho.

" It's weird said a former friend. Now I know, it turns out this is what it feels like to have a former friend. It hurts, it hurts but it doesn't bleed" Lilian said as she pressed her chest in pain.

Seeing Lilian's expression made Nadifa laugh out loud. Lilian laughed and repeated the action several times. Even Nadifa did the same thing to make Lilian endlessly laugh. Then the two stepped back while occasionally laughing.

In his place stood Hesti could only shed tears at the happiness of Lilian and Nadifa.

" It turns out you two can be happy without me. If time could be repeated, I wouldn't do it. I'm sorry for making both of you leave my life. If there is a word ex-friend, Lo both are the most beautiful former friends I ever had. Thanks Lian, thanks Difa. Now I'm going yes. Goodbye..," murmured Hesti sobbing.

Hesti turned his body and then stepped in the opposite direction to Lilian and Nadifa. Occasionally Hesti rubbed his wet face with the back of his hand. Shortly after, he got into the car that was waiting for him and went somewhere.
