Glass Flakes

Maya

"You want to be my girlfriend?"

Maya who was cool to enjoy the fried rice in front of her also raised her head to look at the man who had just thrown a sacred question to her.

"Kok bengong, dong replied" said Niko shaking her hand in front of Maya.

Maya continues to feed food into her mouth. Looks cute indeed, especially as if not affected in the slightest by the words of the man in front of him. Still silent, Maya stuffed the last mouthful of fried rice into her mouth.

Niko who saw Maya's indifferent attitude also looks riled up because she never got an answer. Occasionally he sucked a cold drink in front of him to just eliminate his nervousness because of the behavior of the girl in front of him.

"Mas Niko, what was that talking about? Try repeating" said Maya after finishing her meal.

"Hm?" Niko watched the face in front of her confused.

"Yes, what did Niko say? Akutuh if again eat like not konsen mas" lies Maya.

"Emm, are we dating?"

Maya sighed easing the thump in her chest. The words of the man in front of him were so clear, making it difficult to avoid them. Whether it was a question or a call, Maya herself had a hard time interpreting it.

"Mas Niko nanya what's this command? Maya was so confused" he said as calmly as possible.

Niko laughed at the words of the girl in front of her. Aware of her being the subject of attention of other visitors, Niko finally pulled Maya out of the tent after paying for her food.

"May, I'm serious about you being ordinary" Niko said shortly after the two were in the car.

"Niko mas abusnya, nanya really rich that. Maya will be confused mas, this again shot what is it" Maya murmured.

Niko laughed again at Maya's rant. Several times he shot girls but never as complicated as the girl next to him. Usually they will nod blush or even just agree to the invitation. But Maya? Does he have to learn proper grammar first to invite the girl out.

"Maya Saraswati, will you be my girlfriend?" Repeat Niko by looking at Maya. Next to her hand held Maya's hand which was left alone by the girl.

"I was shot in the story?"

"Ck, May!" Niko was getting upset.

" Hehehe, but I'm sorry, Maya doesn't want to date. Maya wants to focus on college. It's only going to semester two, it's still a long time ago. Maya's father says there can't be macems here".

"Kok macem-macem is May. One macem only, we are dating that" urged Niko.

"That's exactly what mas is. One macem whose name is dating is called a macem-macem".

"Now that's May. That's the rest you carry. And I'm this serious, still rejected?"

"Yes, rejected as girlfriend. But if you want cementan can really, let alone treaties, can really anyway" said Maya while punching Niko's arm slowly.

"I hung that May. I don't understand your thoughts"

Maya was a little touched staring at the slashing face in front of her. He himself was confused by his feelings. On the one hand, he also wants to have a girlfriend like his other friends. On the other hand, he was not so sure about the man before him. A grown man who knows all he has experience with dating. Moreover, he who is abroad makes it have to be extra careful to just know men.

"Sorry mas" said Maya.

Niko drives her car to drive Maya back to her boarding house. The quiet atmosphere in the car made him drive his car a little faster than usual. The rejection he received did not hurt him. But he was so disappointed with the attitude of the girl beside him that seemed to not consider any of his feelings.

Maya who felt the change from the man beside her was silent and did not comment. He knew enough to let the man vent his frustration. He also realized that he had made his Niko mas disappointed.

Aahhh, I'm evil. Sorry mas.

"Cie who was shot out" Dinda seduced Maya who was sitting on a bench in the hallway of her campus. Maya did tell me about her meeting with Niko last night.

"Ck, I did not dare to find Niko again deh Din" said Maya lethargic.

"Why? Didn't you say you were still friends?" Dinda sat herself beside Maya.

"Yes, but I feel really bad about him. I have rejected Din twice, when I want to be well with him. Just like I'm giving you false hope, right?"

"Two times? When's? You didn't tell May"

"Yes, I thought he was joking. Until last night he talked again"

"Ooohh," Dinda nodded her head. "You don't have the same taste as Niko? Mas Dim said, he really likes you, you know May"

"Tau ah Din's. Tau himself was not like if the virgin child is dating. And again, Niko was an adult, playboy too. I'm afraid it will be hurt if I have to ignore the dating phase whose name is 'broken'. Horrified yet." Maya shuddering.

Dinda until gawking at the explanation of his best friend. He was inexhaustible, Maya who looks wise every time she advises him, now looks so confused with her own problems. It may be true said people, speaking is easier than undergoing.

"As much as you are May. You know better for yourself" said Dinda finally. "One more thing, you don't have to think too far rich. Not everyone who is dating will break up. They may even get married in the end. And again, breaking up isn't always as painful as your shadow. It's not that complicated as May is, you can still be friends, right?"

"God, I know you. You never dated yourself".

"Hehehe,, where is Maya the wise anyway?" Dinda hit her best friend's arm slowly.

"Hehhhh,," Maya smiled wryly. "Not everyone is as good as Din. Rich as you are, looks fragile and strong. Salute me to you" said Maya honestly.

For Maya, the friend in front of her really amazed her. From the start of Dinda who was so bad because of the incident that happened to her, until now, the girl has returned to her normal life. His self-defeating struggle really made a Maya so admiring his best friend.

"What the hell are you May, I'm strong also thanks to you. Thank you" Dinda suddenly mellowed.

"Ck, start deh lebai" said Maya then laugh followed by Dinda.

Until someone suddenly stood before the two and uttered the name of one of them.

"Mr,,,"
