Chased Om Om 2

Not the Sandfield Lizard

What did he say? He found his dream girl. That means he already has a girlfriend. Hmm .. I guess I misjudged it. A man who already has a lover, why even approach even dare to seduce me. Looks like he's a land crocodile, huh! 

"Gee! Om Damar if you already have a boyfriend, why not invite his girlfriend, to watch this movie? Why does it have to be the same Tiara anyway?" ask me with a tone of wonder. "Or actually Om Damar can't be with one girl, huh? That kind of desert lizard," my ledek. 

The man laughed showing off his rows of teeth that were still visible in this dark studio room. His hand again screwed up the top of my head. 

"When did I tell you I had a boyfriend? Do you think I look like a don juan? There's-there's," he said with a laugh.

"So, so that dream girl is just a lie, is that it?" sahutku.

Om Damar sighed. His gaze returned to the big screen before him. "One thing's for sure, I've been in love with a girl. And it seems I'm stuck with my own feelings so I can't fall in love anymore."

Aaa …. I didn't think there was a man with dead love like this. All this time I thought it was only in the movies. So curious, what kind of dead love girl? Hm .... How does it feel to fall in love? 

As I was busy with my own thoughts, suddenly the man clasped my hand. 

"Then I met you. I feel my heart beating again. I, who had long been numb to all kinds of women, seemed to rise again" he said. The pair of eyes looked at me as if figuring out the response to his statement.

I bit my lips. I still can't believe it. He's a handsome young businessman. There are a lot of women who are after him. But ... Why should I feel in love with me?

I pulled my hand back. "We're just friends, right?" ask me in a soft voice. I don't know why my throat is stuck. "I still have to finish my school, Om."

"I will always support you. Allow me to stay by your side, accompany you to grow into a great woman." 

Jeez .. This is gonna get complicated. 

"Look! He's really gonna sacrifice himself." I deliberately switched our conversation. Of course it's because I don't know how to answer her request.

In the film it is told that the male protagonist is trying to save his girl from the captivity of his enemy, a man who has a grudge in the past of the main character. 

"I hope this movie will end happily" I said. "Look, he had already managed to get his girl out of that place. But …. Why didn't he go with her?"

"He wants to solve everything, so that the past does not overshadow his future." Om Damar explained to me the logic of the mind of the male protagonist doing the action.

For a moment we were silent observing all the events in the big screen before us. Seen scene after scene heroic stunning. And ….

"Geez, is the director going to make that guy die!" my annoyance. I prefer a happy ending in every story. I hate the sad ending that will surely drain my tears. 

"Not everything we hope to achieve, Tiara. No matter how hard man tries, God is decisive." This time Damar sounds wise. 

I rubbed the warm liquid that just rolled on my cheek. Suddenly the man stretched out his hand and hugged me tightly. "Csh …. Sshh …. Don't be sad, it's just a movie, really."

Slowly the dim light of the room lit up, a sign that the film had finished airing. 

But it felt so relieved after spilling all my sadness earlier. I always try to look cheerful and tough in front of everyone, especially my mom. It's enough to be a single parent since papa died. I don't need to make him sadder by showing my downfall. 

That night I was back to sleep. All the things I've been through all day, are back playing in my head. About my first kiss that was taken without a coincidence, about the incident in the elevator this afternoon that was really thrilling, also about his embrace while in the performance building. 

Why my emotions so easily change so quickly when I am with him. Anger, sadness, anxiety and happiness seemed to roll so fast without my control. 

That guy was the only one who managed to play with my emotions. While with her, my life was colorful. 

But ... Does he really not have a lover? Handsome face, well-established job. It's hard to believe he doesn't have a girlfriend. 

Why do I keep thinking about him. 

I held my chest. I felt my heart beating so hard. Even thinking about him alone, made me flutter. 

Forget, Tiara! Forget her. You don't deserve him. What if one day her lover comes and gets mad at you! Om Damar can't really fall in love with you.

I turned around and put my face on my pillow. 

That morning I woke up again. All this is because of Damar. Instead of forgetting her, all night I could not sleep anymore because I kept thinking about her. 

"Mama, I'm leaving first!" pamitku while grabbing the smoked meat sandwich on the serving plate. 

"Tiara, careful!" Mom's voice was still there when I closed the door. 

I was bitten and I chewed quickly on my mama's sandwich while running out of the house. 

Wretch! If I'm not quick to find the angkot today, then I have to accept the school sentence. Oh, my God, I can imagine how embarrassed I would be if I had to wear the yellow vest of school fees. And how tired was the other punishment I had to accept.

TIN! TIN!

A horn sounds behind me. I jumped in surprise. Oh, my God, damn it! I'm in a hurry because it's almost too late, eh .. use the event to be all.
