Different Faiths But the Same Amen

18. Misunderstand

Ticia had known from the beginning that Tika had more feelings than a best friend to Varen. Ticia was only speechless hearing Tika's heart expression. She was also a woman, she knew what Tika was feeling at the moment. But that's no reason to be selfish.

"Love cannot be forced!"

"Lo can say that easily because Gio likes you. You never know how I feel.. I lost both my parents, and now I'm losing the man I like. Huh..." Tika's emotions are uncontrollable.

Ticia looked at Tika with pity. It was clear that a grain of white liquid was flowing from both of his eyes. "Gue doesn't know what you are, which I know everyone has different problems. And they have the choice to be happy or down with the problem." Ticia wiped Tika's tears.

However, Tika brusquely brushed Ticia's hand away. "Not to be so good!!" said it.

"Don't blame others if what you want, you can't get it. Because it will make you more selfish. Varen also has no obligation to fulfill your ambition, about the feeling no one can force."

"A big doubt about you?"

"It's up to you to think I'm like that. I'm just nasehatin lo aja." Ticia was about to leave Tika, but Tika held her hand. In tears Tika begged Ticia to stay away from Varen.

Ticia paused for a moment, "Okay, I'll-"

"What will?" suddenly Ticia and Tika are shocked by someone who has been there for a long time. But they don't know. That person is Varen.

"Glho.."

"Sir Varen.."

Varen stepped closer to Ticia and Tika. From the look on his face, Varen is angry. Perhaps disappointed in Tika who tried to keep her away from Ticia. Or maybe disappointed in Ticia who wants to comply with Tika's request.

"Lo will what? Will I stay away?" asked Varen in anger.

"Gue is disappointed with Tik! I think with yesterday's incident you'll think about my feelings, but it turns out you have.."

"I don't mean Gi-"

"And lo Cia, I feel that my struggle for you is in vain. I'm stupid to love people who never like me at all." Ticia had not yet opened her mouth, Varen had turned her back to leave Ticia and Tika.

"Sister, horrify me first! I haven't answered Tika's request yet, I continued with it!" pinta Ticia tried to hold Varen's hand.

"No need to continue! I know what you want to say. My heart aches, Cia." said Varen as she looked into Ticia's eyes with tears. Varen then pulled out his hand and left the place disappointed.

"Gi..." Tika is trying to catch up to Varen.

"It should be me first, I don't want to go far" muttered Ticia alone. The fact that Ticia wants to say will not stay away from Varen, but will advise Varen not to be angry with his friends. Because to stay away from Varen, he can't afford. I don't know why. Maybe because he was already starting to like the tall man. But he hasn't spoken yet, Varen has misunderstood first.

In class 11 TB 2, Varen takes his bag and moves in next to Nathan. It just so happened that the bench next to Nathan was empty. Everyone in that class no one wants to sit at night with Nathan. Maybe because Nathan was considered weird.

"Gi, I can clear it all!" said Tika held Varen's hand who was about to move seats. But Varen did not want to see or answer Tika's words.

"Va..Va..Varen," Nathan said nervously as Varen sat next to him.

"Gue sitting next to you is okay, right?" ask Varen.

"I.iya." Nathan dared not refuse Varen's request. If he refuses, he knows what will happen.

"Gi, is there a repeat today?" rafa asked closer to Nathan and Varen's bench.

"No, why?" ask Varen back.

"Well, you're moving next to the cupu?" sahut Iqbal sits at Nathan's front desk.

"Pengen aja sitting next to the cupu." replied Varen. He is not caught up by the question of his friend who seems to be figuring out what is going on between him and Tika.

Meanwhile Ticia arrived in front of Varen's class. Before entering the class, there were some students who teased her by saying that Ticia was beautiful. However, Ticia did not respond to the temptation of her upperclassman.

And from the classroom, Varen sees the woman he likes being teased in front of his class by his classmates. Varen didn't like to see that, but he tried to calm down. It was even Rafa who walked over and reprimanded his friends.

"Nyariin who's Cia?" ask Rafa.

"Sir Varen??"

"So, come in!" bring Rafa. And of course it made his friends who teased Ticia earlier become a little upset. But they also did not dare to fight Varen and his gang.

Ticia entered the classroom and immediately approached where Varen was. Ticia asks Varen to listen to her explanation. But Varen insists on not hearing anything from Ticia's mouth.

"Please sis!" please Ticia with sadness.

"No.." answered Varen briefly without looking at Ticia. Maybe he was afraid of not being able to control his feelings when he looked at Ticia.

Ticia could no longer force Varen because the bell had rung. With sad steps Ticia walked out of Varen's class. And when he got in front of the class, he was teased again by some of Varen's classmates. They said they wanted to take Ticia home later that afternoon. Someone asked for Ticia's phone number, as well as her home address.

Seeing that Varen became angry. He stood up and directly pulled Ticia's hand past his companions who were blocking Ticia's path. As soon as Varen withdrew his hand, some of his classmates willingly gave them a way.

"Not come to my class anymore!" varen said not far from his class, after releasing Ticia's hand.

Varen doesn't like Ticia coming looking for her. But Varen could not bear to beat up his friends who dared to tease Ticia in front of him.

"If you want to beat me up, I'm not going to your class anymore." said Ticia grabbed Varen's hand. Instantly Varen fell silent as Ticia's soft hand touched her hand.

"Udah bell, time to learn.." Varen withdrew his hand, then turned around and left Ticia without turning his head. While Ticia just sighed looking at the coldness of Varen. But even though Varen looked cold, but his voice still sounded very soft when talking to Ticia.
