Demians

CHAPTER 13 - Couple Goals

After Mas Bagas and I went down, Alfi immediately explained the concept of the photo together and we started walking towards the designated place. We do a variety of styles for photo taking. Sometimes we tease Jihan and Alfi who sometimes take turns to set the camera timer. Mas Bagas finally came out of formation to take photos of the six of us, followed by Ines who also came out of formation to take photos of the five of us as a KKN team once in this village.

After being satisfied with the photos together, we finally took turns for our own photos as well as in pairs. I took a photo together with Jihan and Ines, followed by a photo of three. In addition, I also took a photo with Alfi because Aunt Asti asked for a photo of us both. I also encouraged the others to take photos with Bian. Actually, it doesn't matter if I take pictures with him, but what makes me lazy and upset is the teasing of friends when I pose quite intimate with Bian.

“oke..yak keep yes position like that. Bian held his gaze.1.2…3” I want to feel like I slammed the camera Alfi because he arbitrarily set my style and Bian with a position that makes my heart want to explode it feels because we are currently posing facing each other with very close faces like almost kissing. Plus I put both my hands on his shoulders, while both Bian's hands were coiled around my waist.

“oke..now Demi style up to his back Bian, your truss poses as if he was laughing happily yes” my eyes are perfectly rounded to hear his orders.

“gak no...gue gamau photo again” my snatch while crossing my hands on the chest, “lo ngerjain I right Al?? What do you mean tell me the same Bian photo with pose kayak want prewedding it??” Jihan, Devan, and Ines laughed at my words, while Bian and Mas Bagas were silent with flat expressions.

“ck...liat lo same appearance Bian now” I immediately see the appearance of me and Bian at this time, “kalian tuh couple goals really tau gak..gue whole lo pose kayak it for my studio collection…will be willing to hold the exhibition, I love you both bonus if my exhibition succeeds later” said Alfi while raising his eyebrows.

My current appearance and Bian is indeed suitable if used as a model for a pair of photos. I am currently wearing a T-shirt with ¾ sleeves lined with knee-length jeans overalls coupled with a jacket I wrapped around my waist. I saw the appearance of Bian wearing a short-sleeved collared shirt paired with knee-length cargo pants. We also compact using the same footwear, namely mountain sandals.

“ayo hunted pose that I asked earlier” command Alfi while walking towards me and Bian to set our pose.

“gamau ah I. There are Ines same Devan. They are just a photo with the pose kayak so” I try to find a reason to no longer do photos with Bian.

“Ines same Devan udah yesterday” said Alfi relaxed.

“Jihan?” ask me while glancing towards Jihan.

“Jihan already photos make your own pose” reply Alfi.

“Jihan with Bian means Al..” my words are chatty with Alfi's answer

“Bian is too tall for Jihan. Lo matching him.already done me anyway, ntar also I pay lo kok services.gak-Kuma this..” said Alfi who began to get upset with me.

“alah gapapa Dem...we follow what said Alfi” said Bian who finally voiced.

“rese really..tau gini mending I use the same hoodie training just so not be an impromptu model lo Al” sukanku while preparing to install the style instructed by Alfi.

“lo want to wear any clothes I will still install the same Bian. I have conceptualized before. Bian's same lo body is proportional.pas really if soldin” I just click the tongue annoyed.

After taking a picture, we decided to go to the waterfall below the village so we could return home before Friday prayers arrived. Mas Bagas came up to me when I finished taking photos with Bian.

“nih I bought a drink earlier in the shop.certainly you are tired of having to repeat the photo” said Mas Bagas while handing me a bottle of drinking water.

“oh, thanks Mas Bagas” I immediately opened the bottle cap and gulped it until the remaining half. It turns out that doing photoshoots is quite draining.

I walked towards the waterfall side by side with Mas Bagas behind my friends who had walked first. Bian the front road leads our way to the waterfall. Ever since Mas Bagas approached me, Bian suddenly avoided me. Jihan, Alfi, Ines, and Devan also no one dared to approach me if I was with Mas Bagas. It seems like they are disinclined if they interact with Mas Bagas. I also felt that Mas Bagas only intended to approach me, not trying to familiarize himself with my other friends. Actually I feel uncomfortable if only two with Mas Bagas, but considering his promise that only considers me as a friend, I try to keep the anxiety in me.

As per the agreement, we play at the club only until 11 p.m. When it was stolen, Mas Bagas really held me back from staying with him. I was only able to get away from him when Alfi called me and Mas Bagas to take pictures again like in a pine forest park. Me and Bian also asked Alfi to return the photos in pairs. Unlike the photos in the pine forest garden, this time Bian more initiative to set our own pose. Alfi was very satisfied with the pose we gave for the idea of Bian because it looks more intimate and more chemistry as a couple.

For some reason every time we did the pose of staring at each other, I saw Bian's gaze that was sad and like holding back anger. I also feel like every time Bian poses me, he does it a little possessively. I tried to ignore his attitude and not think too much about it. I don't want to mess back up my feelings by trying to guess his heart.

We decided to return home early so that Alfi, Bian, and Mas Bagas could clean up before Friday prayers. After the boys went to the mosque, I invited Jihan, Ines, and Devan to go to the market that was in the sub-district all filled with gasoline for my car. Luckily Bian put my car keys in his room along with Alfi's car keys. But Ines and Devan refuse because they want to rest.

“you don't complain about strange things ya mentang-about me stay together” threatened me while squinting.

Miss Rima is not home at the moment. Mas Bagas had told us when we were stolen if Bu Rima had to go to the city to accompany his sick brother. Miss Rima was picked up by her nephew and will be back Sunday morning. So as long as Bu Rima left, Mas Bagas would accompany us on vacation.

“it's been better at home alone times than at home people” said Devan who chuckled at my threat.

I laughed a little at the answer, “kalo can't stand mending you guys check in at the hotel around Guci aja ahahaha” I passed with Jihan heading to my car while laughing at Ines and Devan. Ines' red face restrained the embarrassment of hearing my words.

Devan knew that I was only joking when I talked about it, but he understood I meant my words that warned him. I found out that Devan and Ines had been in a relationship further and did not rule out the possibility that they would be desperate to do it here because it was only the two of them in this house after my departure and Jihan.

I know this because when I used to have a boarding house with Ines, I often caught Devan coming in and out of Ines' room and often found Ines in a messy condition after Devan's departure. Ines who I pressured to tell the story finally confessed if he had done a "that" relationship with Devan. I used to warn him not to do too often at the boarding house for fear of inviting neighbors around the boarding house. Even though my boarding house and Ines are free for boys and girls, it is still not nice if Devan stays at our boarding house too often.

“you are very close to Mas Bagas ya Dem?” ask Jihan who opened the conversation on the way.

“ya that's how.he invited me to be friends. Yes..I'm the same he's just a friend” I replied while focusing on the road.

“iya I know how she likes me. Even he's convinced I married” I replied casually.

“HAHH??? IS HE GETTING YOU MARRIED?? DO YOU WANT??” asked jihan who was excited to hear my statement.

“ya not be...I said I still want to focus first on my career. He was part of the marriage contract from the fitting we KKN know.was he wanted to wait, he was waiting, trus pas just now again yes I answered the problem remains from myself there is no plan it” explained me who made the mouth of Jihan wide open so surprised.

“KKN Dem??? This is KKN lohh...at that time you were 20 years old right and Mas Bagas age..” Jihan's greeting hangs.

“25. Now I'm 25 she's 30” my answer is quick.

“aged 20 you applied to the same person and you have no story is the same me??? Wicked you Dem” Jihan started sulking to me.

“ya why do I tell?? It will get worse later. I'm the same Bian who has nothing to say you guys aggressively continue to tegodain me” I put on a flat face.

“real right yes..kalo KKN it must have been glimpsed by the village youth. Yes, for example, you are like a person who is quite influential in the village” I shake my head to hear the words of Jihan. “but I do not agree Dem if you are the same Mas Bagas, I do not approve. I've already approved you as Bian because. You guys really couple goals really if said Alfi” said Jihan while winking one eye at me. I just cringed looking at him.

“apaansi..basi really know not..lagian also Mas Bagas not my type, I already consider him as a brother. He must find out whose age is not much different from him or nyari who is like him. Our thoughts are different because” Jihan will again tease me, “but that does not mean I hope the same Bian loh yes.Bian also already have a girl…” I instantly silenced Jihan's mouth with my words.

“yahh...sadly very yes Bian already has..I also several times anyway see him phonean so..mana while laughing alone again” Jihan stopped his chatter when seeing the change of look of my face, “eh…sorry Dem...I don't mean.” I immediately smiled to calm him down.

Jihan immediately changed the subject with something else and tried not to mention Bian. Luckily we arrived at the market soon. Previously, Jihan and I stopped by the nearest musholla to perform the dzuhur prayer. Jihan also texted the group that she and I were going to the market for lunch, so they didn't have to wait for us.

After finishing the prayer, Jihan and I headed straight to the cake shop. I want to make some cookies and snacks as snacks. While helping out in the kitchen, I saw the cookware and made the cake that belonged to Bu Rima quite complete. In addition, Jihan and I also bought vegetables, meat, various other food ingredients, and cooking spices for us. Mas Bagas also said that Bu Rima left food in the kitchen for us to process, but we do not want to take advantage of the goodness of Bu Rima. The material we buy will be used as a substitute for the material Bu Rima that we will use. We also bought some basic food as a thank you to Bu Rima and Mas Bagas for accepting us. The handing out of the pot was proposed by Bian who replied to Jihan's message.

Tired of shopping, Jihan and I walked towards the meatball stall near the entrance of the market. While waiting for our order, there was suddenly an incoming call from Bian to HP Jihan.

“halo assalamualaikum” greet Jihan when answering calls.

…..

“iya is just finished shopping Bi..again want to eat meatballs. Anyone want a nitip?”

…..

“you want to talk to Demi?”

…..

“feelings daritadi you called the name Demi mulu...nih Dem bojomu” I opened my eyes when I received HP Jihan.

“ha-hello Bi?” sapaku.

“you really like nelantarin HP” growled Bian who sounded frustrated when he heard my voice.

“ck did I go to the market Bi.ngapain try to bring HP. There was also Devan Sama Ines at home when I left. This is also Jihan brought HP” my murmur was upset because Bian's protective attitude returned to relapse.

I heard Bian breathing in the call, “you're back at what time?” ask with a more subtle tone.

“abis eat meatballs I same Jihan directly back kok. Udah this very limit was on Jalan” I replied while accepting the meatball order that had come.

“you're careful on the road yes later on the reverse, I close first if you want to eat. Assalamualaikum” said Bian who ended our call.

“waalaikumsalam” I directly restore HP Jihan.

“kok I doubt yes if Bian already have a girl.he is so protective you” said Jihan while pouring sambal to her meatball bowl.

“gatau lah..aku gamau think it first..I want to eat” reply me cute, then start eating meatballs.

We ate lunch in silence. After lunch, Jihan and I headed straight to my car in the parking lot. Before we got home, I looked for the nearest SPBU to fill up the gas in my car.
