Guardians of the Heart #2
Chapter 17
“Hahaha... not a girlfriend, Yudha just finished there was a reunion with high school friends keep coming home all anterin friends first.”
“Oh, dikiran actually have a boyfriend.. already seneng we horrified you have a girlfriend.”.
I went back to the gaping unbelief of hearing mother's words.
“Your girl friends are still single?”
“There are some, Well.”
“Ya already, same one of them only. right you guys have known for a long time so the process of knowing each other will not be difficult to directly marry.”.
“Dad!” I looked at Dad with round eyes in disbelief hearing his words.
“Why? Yudha is old enough to marry, 30 is not Yud, this year?”
“Yes, Yeah, 30.”
“Tuh... was married at 28 years old, so he was married.”
“Iya, but..” I could not find the right words, too shocked to see the enthusiasm of my parents.
“Yudha High School friends will not anyone want to be the same Yudha, Yah.”
“Lho why?” ask me I don't believe it.
“They have Yudha already got cal..”.
I opened his mouth because I knew what he was going to say.
“Yesterday at the wedding reception of his friend Mas Yudha, they thought Kekey.
“Lho can? Didn't you say you weren't dating?” ask Daddy to be curious.
“Kekey said he..”.
I again smothered his mouth with annoyance, aah why today he is so chatty!
“Kekey says that Kekey mules so go home right then! let's talk in the back, yuk!” I pulled the Lieutenant's hand to the back porch which I immediately struck annoyed and instead made him laugh.
“Iiih... Mas Yudha, really bummer ya today!”
“Lho, I'm honest, same parents can't lie.”
“Ckk..”.
I was sitting on a chair in the tail by the Lieutenant sitting beside me, but then he stood back up to pick up Dirga's guitar and started playing some songs.
“Tadi exciting?” I asked while listening to him play a cold play song.
“Lumayan, chat about epoch SMA.” He smiled as he continued to play the guitar.
“Mantan Mas Yudha has it all?”
“Hahaha..kan Deby has returned to Amrik, there is Ocy with Salma.”.
“Mantan Mas Yudha only 3 it?”
“SMAZs? Yes.”
“Hah?! So more than 3?”
He laughed when he saw me in disbelief.
“Hahaha.. There is one more, his name is Nadine but he is different school.”.
“Terus?”
“Keep what?”
“Who else?”
“No more, that's all.. oh yes one more! Za.”
“Leona? Widy?”
“They don't count dong.”
“Ckk... whose first? Deby?”
“Yang first, Salma class 1 time but only dating a few months only, trus Ocy.. uh fitting class 2 same class they both, hahaha.”
“Hah! Continues?”
“Yes already, no how-how, will break it is also good so yes still friends.Decide does not mean to be an enemy.”.
“Iya anyway, so same Ocy is also class 1?”
“Sama Ocy fitting want to go up class 2, it's also just how many months huh? forget, keep Deby.”
“Then Nadine?”
The Lieutenant looked bright for a while before telling me about his ex, making me feel jealous for a while.
“Nadine, I dated her when I was in Akmil, she was still in class 3 High School.”
“He wants to study abroad, he keeps saying he can't LDR-an ya have broken up.”
“Mas Yudha is still dear huh?”
“Whose name? Same Za? Yes, if it is not to be asked.”
“Iiih... no! But same Nadine.”
“Think, but if between Salma, Ocy, Deby and Nadine maybe I was the hardest when breaking up with her, if with Nadine... I was a little difficult to accept when she asked to break up on the grounds of college outside, I mean the reason does not make sense.”.
I was silent to hear his words.
“But it was so long ago that I finally met someone who jumped from the truck among the chaos of the disaster scene, and that's when I found my true love.”
“Ckk...” I smiled hearing that.
“If for example meet again with Nadine how?”
“What's the point? Yeah no way, it was.”
“Not going to CLBK?”
“Hahaha.. there will be you who will be ready to get rid of anyone who dares to approach me, later you just say ‘kenalin, his future wife Mas Yudha,’ hahahaha.”
“Iiih... but Mas Yudha really no longer feel the same he?”
“Hahaha, I was having a hard time breaking up with him because the reason I said earlier was absurd, but after getting here I like to laugh myself if remember the past sometimes the reason for breaking up is not reasonable, rich for example ‘you are too good for me’.”
“Hahaha.. yes bener.”.
“Lha, I tell you the couple is a good nyari, kok already got a good one even cutusin.”
“Hahaha, yesaa.”.
“You ever did a rich mutusin?”
“Hahaha... ever!!”
“Thank, hahaha..”.
“Si Nadine also used to say that, ‘sorry I want to study abroad, I can not LDR-an’... maybe she forgot that all this time we are LDR-an, I can not do this, I was in Magelang he was in Bandung, met very rarely at least SMS aja, continue if abroad can not SMS-an or send email.”
“Hahaha.. yes bener.”.
“It's weird, rich mending Deby... ‘Yud, I want to go to Amrik break up yuk?’ I said why break up? ‘soal later I want to find bule ganteng’.”
“Hahahaha... Really Deby said that?”
“Iya, hahaha, he is very strange children say he is lacking in seasons but that makes the person fun, if you talk about the origin of the plaques.”
“Hahaha... Keep Mas Yudha saying what?”
“Yes have to say what else try, I just said yes already doain I let get Luna Maya.”
“Hahahaha.”
“That's what you broke up for a reason too good that's when?”
“SMA also... the person ngebosenin.”.
“Hahaha, why are you dating him when you are taking ngebosenin?”
“Ganteng you know, Mas, continue to pinter too... uh yearsya ngebosenin really, really too good can not be invited to skip rich Arga.”
“Hahaha... Have you ever skipped?”
“Older with Arga, eat meatballs chuanki.”
“Hahaha, keep the other girlfriend you also sentin first?”
“Iya.. I have 2 times dating SMA time, the first one was Wildan who I said ngebosenin, the second is Bule but not too long.”
“Why?”
“Checking.”
“Hah! You cheated?”
“Iya, same friend I also his mistress.deen deh the Bule hit Arga.”.
“Heartbreak dong.”
“Yes, but not for long sad too because he also cheated on his girl.”
“Hahaha"
“Iya, hahaha.”
That night we talked about our past, laughed at the stupidities we had done to talk about the secrets of the past, which seems impossible to tell us that our status is still dating without involving our feelings. But now we can talk to each other openly about everything, and with our openness like now makes the cracks in my heart slowly begin to heal.
In addition, I now know the Lieutenant better, not only as Mas Lieutenant, an extraordinary man who made me fall in love at first sight, not as a man who hurt me some time ago, but as Yudha Adipati Pratama an ordinary man who was once as recalcitrant as a child his age, the man who had been a guitarist in his school band and the man who liked many people was proven by the many friends he had including being able to make friends with his ex.
