DESERVEDLY

Chapter 31 - A Fan

Fani is not the only one who is confused. Devano, Sandhi, even Reynal was also confused by Intan's sudden attitude of giving Fani a hug. The atmosphere that had previously been tense was immediately replaced with a confusing questionable condition.

“It's great to meet you,” Intan said as he took off his embrace.

Fani's response still seemed like a confused person, as she completely did not recognize Intan. Fani tilted to be able to see Intan's face from a close range, but Fani still did not recognize Intan.

“Who are you, huh?” Fani threw a question for the sake of immediately expel her curiosity.

Intan did not answer. He pointed instead towards the t-skirt used by him. To be more clear, Intan alternately pointed to Fani's t-skirt and her t-skirt as an unequivocal code that the design was similar. And, that's when Fani began to realize who she was talking to.

“Intania Zhesky. Is that really you?” The look on Fani's face instantly changed, becoming more carefree and frenzied himself.

Intan nodded steadily. It didn't take long until then replace Fani who gave a hug with a carefree mood. In fact, Fani hugged Intan very tightly.

“I'm a fan of your novels. How about Mario-Anjani? Is there a season 3? I like the Third Lauk chapter the most? No! Anjani is a genius. Hard code, let Mario not try cheating. Especially the model Lovey. Uuuuh, make greget.”

Fani leaned the question, making Intan confused about which part to answer. In addition, Fani is very excited to mention the most liked part of the novel by Intan entitled My Destiny with You.

In fact, Intan never knew each other directly with Fani. Intan only knows Fani as a kind fan. It has been three times that Fani sent a gift to Intan. First prize, bracelet. Second, a box full of chocolate. Third, t-skirt the special design that they are currently both using. During this time Intan and Fani communication is limited only via Intan's novel fan chat group, even then it is not often done. While Intan, she never shows the profile of her face so that makes fans of her novel curious about Intan's real life.

“It turns out fans of his novel Intan,” Sandhi whose existence is starting to be forgotten. In fact, he had taken a position beside Reynal.

“Keep, still want to hold accountable from Fani?” reynal asked Sandhi.

“Entahlah. I'm confused, Rey.”

“Dev, what do you think?”

Reynal wants to know Devano's opinion. Unfortunately, Devano only smiled while paying attention to Intan. Devano's eyes weren't even sidetracked though Reynal lured him in with questions.

“Devano Albagri, did you hear me?”

“Iya, Rey. Hear you. Sorry.” It was then that Devano turned his head without fading the smile on the face. But, just for a second. Afterwards Devano looked back at Intan while still developing a smile.

“People fall in love with his behavior is indeed a guilla, yes.” Reynal laughed lightly while patting Devano on the back.

“Be careful with your words, Rey. There's my competition next to you. Tuh, look!”

Devano pointed his tail towards Sandhi. Actually Sandhi heard the curse, but she tried to be indifferent. Sandhi did not want to fight with Devano in front of Intan.

Meanwhile, Intan and Fani are still discussing the world of traveling, precisely discussing the characters in the novel by Intan. Sandhi and Reynal get tired of waiting for them to chat, except for Devano, only he who is not bored and still develops his smile while paying attention to Intan. For him, Intan's happiness is his happiness.

“The story of the novel will continue later, yes. Now I want to hear your story. Oya, wait a minute. Meet first, they are my friends.” Intan pulls Fani's hand slowly and approaches Devano, Sandhi, and Reynal.

“These smiles, his name is Devano. This one's Reynal, he's a kind-hearted young psychologist.”

“Kok I'm not given a nickname too, anyway?” Devano.

“Em, Devano is a designer and ..”

“And her future husband Intan,” said Devano who successfully made Intan so blushed embarrassed.

“If this tall strapping, his name is Sandhi.” Intan further introduced.

Too bad, the expression Fani showed was not as enthusiastic as before. Fani immediately showed a sour face, even throwing a look. And, that expression was captured by Intan.

“What's up, Fan?” Intan wondered about Fani's sudden sour attitude.

“He owes me an apology.” Fani's index finger was directed at Sandhi's face.

At once Sandhi was surprised by Fani's words. Sandhi felt he owed nothing. If anyone has to owe an apology, it's Fani, not Sandhi. It was the fan who had made Intan have a bad day with the kidnapper, so Sandhi thought.

“Dear Mona Fani, you owe Intan an apology. Not me.” Sandhi was formal.

"I'm sorry, really. Just ask Intan. Now it's your turn. Let's apologize! My wrist still hurts, nih!” Fani pointed at her right wrist that Sandhi had clutched.

That's what Sandhi chose. He did not apologize for not making a mistake. For the grip on Fani's wrist, it was spontaneous he did in order to save Intan.

“Fani, may we know your reason for being chased by kidnappers?” It was Reynal who asked, as well as breaking the fierce attitude between Fani and Sandhi.

“Actually ...” Fani hesitated to tell a story.

“Do not hesitate, Fan. Just tell. If you are in danger, we will help you. Aren't you, Dev?” Intan is looking for support.

“One stop. Me and Intan will help you.” Again Devano developed his sweet smile for Intan.

Feeling supported, Fani also began to reveal facts about her, including about two kidnappers who were wrongly targeted.

“Which you think is the kidnapper, actually they're both employees of my brother. They are good people, really. I know them, but they don't know me because they're new hires.”

Intan's suspicions were answered already, because as long as in the car Intan was treated politely. There was absolutely no clash let alone sharp gunshots.

“The name is Falen, isn't it?” Intan repeated the name previously mentioned as Falen Boss.

“True once, Tan. He's my brother. Sometimes his attitude is reckless and seems strange, but he is too sorry for a useless sister like me.”

Sounded melow. Fani lowered her head to prevent her tears from flowing. He did not want to look pitiful, especially in front of Intan.

Fani's story continues through Intan's persuasion. Fani admitted, before this she worked as a figure. But, his career did not continue due to too many rivals whose potential was beyond the shadow. Fani who was trying to be independent without the help of Falen, she tried the cosmetics business. But, again the business involved actually failed, even went bankrupt and suffered losses. Fani is still in debt.

Falen, Fani's brother heard the misfortune of his sister. Falen plans to help, but on the condition that Fani must be willing to marry Falen's rich best friend. Falen thought, Fani's life will be more prosperous if married, even the debts can be repaid by her future husband who is rich.

“I don't want to be betrothed, especially because of debt. Brother Falen is really outrageous.” Fani upset.

“Should before doing business you first measure the bad good impact, up to the problem of the cost as well. Not just try luck.”

“Shut up you master abal-abal!” fani said with annoyance.

Sandhi did not reply to the word, because just then Intan glanced sharply at him. Actually Sandhi's talk has a point, but it's wrong time to be made as advice. Coupled with Sandhi's vexation before this, so those words he couldn't prevent. Sandhi is only upset because he was accused of being in debt because of the grip of the wrist.

“Will your brother not force you to marry if the debt is paid off?” asked Reynal, who again diverted the commotion made by Fani and Sandhi.

“Ya .. can be said as such. But the debt is pretty big. I don't know where to get that big money from, while I'm not working.” Fani really chose to be honest to be honest.

“Sorry, nih. If you can tell, how big is it?” Devano was curious.

Fani raised her ten fingers without hesitation and showed them to Devano. The only one who said it was Sandhi.

“Ten thousand?”

“Ten million! Satisfied you master abal-abal?” Fani's face was really upset.

“Fani, relax.” Intan tries to mediate, so that Fani does not continue to be upset with Sandhi. “Sandhi will help you with pleasure. Isn't that right, San?”

“Eh?” Sandhi is startled by Intan's sudden remarks, but Sandhi quickly captures Intan's eye code to quickly agree. “Iya. I will help you,” Sandhi replied, still with a little indifference.

Fani is happy because someone intends to help her. But, if it was Sandhi, Fani still lacked confidence. Sandhi has hurt his right wrist, even had to show a fierce face when the plight of Intan who was the victim was wrongly targeted.

“I believe in Sandhi. He'll definitely help you, Fan. Sandhi is generous.” Devano. “Juga ... now he is single, you know,” added Devano who immediately got a hand elbow from Reynal. Intan also followed by reprimanding Devano's speech.

Sandhi's savings aren't that much. But, he was not at ease to refuse Intan's request. Again the feeling of love takes a role. Things that are out of range until forced. It is said to be blind, but the depth of the feeling that speaks, makes Sandhi unable to dwell on it.

“Love oh love.” Inner Sandhi while stealing a glance towards Intan.

Apparently, the sad moment when Sandhi looked at Intan was known by Fani. He could immediately guess Sandhi's feelings for Intan. A deep and unresolved feeling.

“Devano and Sandhi. In terms of appearance, Sandhi is more cool. But, why Intan prefers Devano, huh?” Fani wondered in her heart.

Conditioning performed. Reynal did not want to linger in the rice fields. He immediately suggested going home. Intan and Devano agree. Sandhi agreed. But the problem is with Fani. He did not dare to return to his hometown before his debts were repaid.

“You're coming with me?” Sandhi offered, but this time it wasn't to attract Intan's attention. It is humanity that plays a role.

“Means coming to your city?” ask Fani.

Sandhi nodded. “You can stay at one of my mom's rented. While looking for a job can also. Debt problem, can you take a installment after having a salary from your new job.”

“Intan, what do you think?” Fani asks Intan for his opinion, because Intan is the only one he believes in.

“This is a convenience for you, Fan. Just accept Sandhi's offer. Trust me, Sandhi is a good man. I've known him for a long time.”

Intan's intention is only to strengthen Fani's heart, but it turns out that his speech was responded more by Sandhi. Sandhi smiled sincerely at Intan, but he immediately faded once Devano gave him a glance.

Fani's business is over. Before parting the city, Intan took the time to speak with Sandhi. Devano, who initially objected, finally chose to give time to Intan. There is also Reynal who is always ready to be a mediator among the complexity that occurs there.

Intan and Sandhi both face towards the rice fields. The green scenery was soothing to their eyes, but not to the turmoil felt in the chest, especially in Sandhi's heart.

“I'm sorry,” said Intan starting the conversation.

"I'm sorry too, Tan. I shouldn't underestimate your choice. Devano, he deserves to be with you.” Sandhi recalls Devano's reckless actions when two kidnappers mistakenly capture Intan.

“About our story in the past, forget it.”

“Do not want,” said Sandhi who at that time seemed to develop her smile.

Intan turned to Sandhi. Unintentionally, their gazes met for a few seconds. However, it immediately collapsed because Devano was surprised to suddenly position himself in the middle of Intan and Sandhi.

“It's enough, yeah. Sandhi, forgive my previous mischievous attitude. Congratulations on fighting for the heart of Fani.”

“Dev, you ...”

“Eit, patience first, dong. Don't like to interrupt people. Not good.” Devano embraces Sandhi to get along. “For the ten million, me, Intan, and Reynal will be a joint venture to help you,” Devano added.

“No need. I can do it myself.” Sandhi hugged Devano back, then whispered to him. “Remember! Intan's Happy. Otherwise, you'll regret.”

After that, Sandhi took off the embrace. He smiled at Intan, waved his hand, then turned back.

“Fani, come!”

"Okay, Master.”

One story in the clear water lake was over. It was an unexpected story, but it left an incredible impression.

Now, Fani is coming with Sandhi to her town. Meanwhile, Reynal, he chose to ride a motorcycle with Devano, while escorting Intan to reach his home. However, Devano suddenly dropped Reynal as soon as he reached the border of the city.

“Rey, contact Jefri. Ask him to come to your house after work. I'd like to meet him there.”

“You're having a storm with Jefri?”

“More precisely, I want to thank you.” Devano's smile was full of meaning.

After agreeing, Devano took down Reynal. Devano continued to align the speed of the Intan motor until it reached home. Not only that, it turns out that Devano plans to introduce himself to Mira, also Intan's mother's father at that time.
