Friends But Love

Friends But Love
38. TRYING TO FORGET IT



Love went back into her room, stood for a moment in the mirror, put on her shoes, grabbed her briefcase, and walked out of the room.


he came back to Rika in the kitchen, but Rika was not in the kitchen, maybe Rika was getting ready in her room.


after finishing the glass of milk that Rika had made for her, Love went to Rika's room.


"Rica! want to go together, or Reno?" tanya Love, in front of Rika's room.


"wait! I'll be done soon, we'll go together." said Rika, from her room.


"i'll wait in the front, okay?!" love, then hurry ahead.


just now Love was sitting in front of the house, Rika had come to him. "yuk!?" bring Rika.


and they both went to the street looking for passing taxis.


"have a taxi online, yuk? long, nih!" bring Love.


"whatever you are!" sahut Rica.


"uh! taxi, tuh! taxi!" rika shouted, waving her hand towards the taxi.


Love, who had just opened her phone, put it back in her bag and ran after Rika.


the taxi stopped, and they got in.


"why aren't you together, Reno?" tanya Love, in the cab.


"Reno is on leave today" Rika explained.


"why?" continue Love.


"there's business at the restaurant. What about you? will you meet, Nicholas?" ask Rika, turn around.


"why, really?" ask for love, back.


"didn't you see her last night with a woman, another?"


"night, Susi told a lot of stories." continued Rika. Love does not answer, it is silent.


"already, a man like him don't need you to think, there are still many good men who are ready to love you" said Rika, encouraging.


their conversation stopped, because the taxi had stopped in front of the supermarket where they worked. After paying the taxi fare, Rika and Cinta got off the taxi, walking towards the main entrance, the supermarket.


"hi, Love! you're cured, okay?" greet co-workers, Love.


"Alhamdulillah!" love Suhut, smile.


"thank you, dech!" say co-worker Love and they walk in together.


that day, Love looked fresher, and excited.at ten in the morning, Love had just finished serving his customers, while he was tidying up the clothes that had just been seen by customers, Nicholas came to him.


"hi!" nicholas greeting. But Love did not answer, he was still busy with his work, and as if no one greeted him.


"Love, can we talk, for a second?" pinta Nicholas's.


but Love still remained silent, and kept busy with his work.


until finally, Nicholas pulled the arm of Love, until Love turned to face Nicholas.


"please! give me a chance to explain everything." ask Nicholas, again.


"already, there's nothing to explain, again.you don't see, I'm working, working?" says Love.


"yes, I know. What, if it's lunchtime, lunchtime?" continued Nicholas.


instead of answering Nicholas' invitation, Love releases Nicholas' hand on him.


"Love, please! if you don't agree to my invitation, I won't leave here." Nicholas threatened.


Love remained silent, he went to the kitchen, to avoid Nicholas, but the lover who had hurt him, did not want to give up just like that,


Nicholas follows Love up to the kitchen and fortunately, Rika who knows the situation makes excuses for Nicholas to go near Love.


"Sir! someone was looking for you." said Rika, reasoned.


"who?" ask Nicholas.


"well, sir, I didn't have time to ask." said Rika.


"so she was waiting in the waiting room, sir." Rika explained, lying.


and Nicholas left, from the kitchen left Love. "yes!" rika said, pleased. because his efforts were successful, tricking Nicholas.


"who's looking, him?" ask Love, curious. Love has a mind, that the one who is looking for Nicholas is, Maya.


"ga exists, Cin. I just reasoned, for her to leave, and you're free from that jerk guy, that's." Rika explained, smiling in satisfaction.


then they both laughed out loud. satisfied, had pranked and lied to Nicholas.


"thanks, yes! you are my best friend forever!" say Love, while kissing Rika's cheek.


"hemmm...gini turn, my best friend." said Rika, while smiling cynically, teasingly, Love.


"yeah, I want to go back to the front, ntar in anger, boss." said Cinta, then left Rika, who was brewing coffee for him.


up front, Love again get customers.this time, a handsome young man, and look elegant.


"can I help you?" ask Love, to the customer.


"sorry, I don't know, if the maid's underwear is as pretty as you." the customer praised.


"thank you! for his praise." said Love, smiling sweetly.


"You're looking, what?" ask Love, friendly.


"hemmm..I am so, ashamed." said the man.


"don't be ashamed, sir, just think of me as a man." said Love.


"where possible, a girl as beautiful as you are considered, a man." seduced the customer, again.


"what were you, say? mr? that's right. have I been seen, old?" said the man.


"not really, sir uh! sorry!" love, while closing her mouth.


then the handsome man's customer, timidly, asked for the underwear he needed.


after receiving the parcel from Love, the man went to the cashier and did not feel, Love's working hours ended.


Love immediately went to the dressing room, and prepared to go to lunch. he left in a hurry, so as not to meet with Nicholas, to avoid him.


before leaving, Love took the time to send a short message, to Rika. to just tell, that she had left first.


arriving at the parking lot, Love saw a beautiful girl, who seemed familiar to him.


Love continued to pay attention to the girl, until finally, he remembered who the girl was. It turned out that the girl he had noticed from afar, was none other than, Clara.


realizing that someone had been watching her, Clara came to Love.


"hi, Cin!" greet Clara.


"hi!" sahut Love.


"medium, what?" ask Clara.


"this, I was just about to go out to lunch, lunch, all by myself? Where's tomy?" ask for love, back.


"i'm not together, she. I happen to need more bodyguards, to control her." explains Clara.


"owh.." said Love.


"you said you were going to lunch, huh?" ask Clara.


"yes, why?"


"lunch together, yuk?" bring Clara.


"you sure you want the same lunch, me?" tanya Love, less trust. because according to Love, rich girl as beautiful as Clara, it feels inappropriate to eat with her.


"hey! really, why?" ask Clara.


"anything, the hell." said Love.


"yes, wait what, again? yuk?!" take Clara, and immediately hold Cinta's hand, to Clara's parked car.


Love felt strange, with kindness, and with Clara's friendliness, towards her, but she could only wonder in her heart.
