Half A Heart's

Chapter 13

"So there is something that can make me go back in time and not go back and forth, I am willing to disappear and be in that time." - Evano

"Wake up Van, sleep on the bed" Adit wakes up Evan, who is asleep on the couch in his living room. Because of the problems Evan fled to Adit's house and told him all the problems. Secretly Adit still tells Mother Dian if Evan fled to his house, Adit is afraid that Evan's family is worried about his condition.

"What time is this?" evan asked hoarsely while rubbing his eyes.

"Half ten Van nights, long too you sleep."

"Lo hungry isn't he? Eat first there, Mama also cooked well," Adit was very sorry about Evan's situation was very hit. If Adit is in Evan's current condition, maybe Adit has done something that is not-no.

"Gue doesn't taste Dit, just wants to sleep again."

Adit took a deep breath, he was afraid that Evan's condition was getting no better, his face looked very tangled like there was no will to live anymore. Though just yesterday Adit saw Evan smiling widely when their class officially got the first champion in a futsal match.

***

Three days passed, Adit was not out of his room, he spoke little and was always pensive or asleep. Evan also accidentally turned off his phone, even though Mother and Father had called a thousand times and sent him a message. Shila, who knows about Evan's condition, makes him almost every day ask about Evan's condition through Adit. Adit has already told Shila all of Evan's problems.

*Phone Via*

"Shil, you have no plans to entertain Evan? I really saw him."

"What's the road? Mall-mall or to the beach?"

"Ngemall he doesn't want Shil, I've bargained for."

"Gue has an idea, but I'm not sure if he really wants to."

"Where?"

"Mending you to my house first Shil, we discuss here."

"Why? How's girl?"

"He's on vacation in his village, there's no network there either."

"Jude, otw."

Adit disconnects his phone and returns to see the state of Evan who is still contemplating in the room.

"Van, I'm taking Shila for a walk, aren't you coming?"

Evan nodded and looked at Adit.

"Lo ud h has a girlfriend, right Dit, why still go with other girls?"

Adit took a breath, he understood that his best friend's mood was not okay. Evan's words had a point, but this was all he did just to comfort Evan.

"Zerin again in his village Van, after all I have permission," Adit's reason is of course lying.

"Gue wants to walk with Shila."

Adit snorted and smiled obliquely.

***

Evan also has no idea why he suddenly wants to meet and spend time with Shila alone. He is still hesitant to fall in love, because after loving there must be a sense of loss next, Evan can no longer feel loss.

Finally Evan and Shila go by taxi, Evan invites Shila to the bookstore first, Shila assures Evan's will. Because he's here to comfort poor Evan.

"I'll tell you later if you've found a book that you want, yes" said Shila when they both just entered the bookstore. Evan nodded and left.

As Shila was standing among the shelves displaying fictional novels, someone called her.

"Where's lo? No, what's wrong, right?" adit's assault is worrying about Shila's situation. Weird right? His name is Adit, he likes to do things.

"Yes not papa! Eman you think Evan wants to kidnap me?"

"Lo ain't dating Evan, is he?"

"That's right, we're just cementan."

"How protective are you anyway? Tumbens."

"Gue doesn't want to lose my secretary, no one else can miss the OSIS accountability report."

"God!"

Shila smiled obliquely, he did not like jia Adit always linked himself with OSIS, Shila should have been self-conscious if Adit put Shila in a priority position because of 'OSIS affairs'.

Shila went back to looking for a novel she was interested in buying.

"Udah?" evan asked as Shila was paying for her novels at the cash register.

Shila nodded and gave a smile.

"Gue's gonna take you somewhere."

***

Shila glares when Evan takes her to a children's toy store. What's Evan here for? But Shila chose to follow Evan's will. They finally entered the colorful shop.

"Pick the toy you want to buy, keep us going somewhere else."

"Basic weird kid!"

Shila nodded.

After they buy the selected toy and pay for it at the cashier, Evan calls a taxi again and takes Shila somewhere.

Evan takes Shila to a cafe not far from the toy store. They sat on the front bench and ordered a drink.

"I didn't suspect I was taking you to a place that didn't make sense?" evan asked to look at the girl in front of him who looked like a gangster.

"No, I'm glad you brought you to a place I never imagined before" replied Shila honestly. At the beginning, he was a little upset.

After their order came, the two of them kept quiet and sank in their respective heads. Evan's gaze wasn't as gray as it was before those walks. Perhaps he was already a little amused by the strange route he made.

"Journey, the last time I spent time with my late mother."

Shila glared at Evan's honesty just now. He wanted to understand what it was like in Evan's position.

"This bookstore, toy store and cafe."

"When there's something that can make me go back in time and not go back and forth, I'm willing to go missing and be in that moment."

Shila's body shuddered at the outpouring of Evan's heart just now, seeing the state of the Shila family that is still complete and always harmonious, making Shila should be more grateful next.

"Mama went when I was six years old, Mama had a big accident when she picked up Papa to taste the dishes she had served for Papa."

"The kiss for Shil's dinner, as soon as Mama thinks Papa's presence is important."

"That son of a bitch, stupidly spending time at a nightclub. Calm down there because of the problems of so many companies at that time."

"Therefore I can't forgive Papa."

Shila's eyes begin to heat up but she tries to hold him back, Shila's current presence to comfort Evan instead makes her even sadder.

Her name must have failed if told to hold the cry.

"I'm sorry I made you cry Shil, but I'm not strong nahan all this alone."

"In addition to Adit, you are also the person I trust to rise up I stand up again." Evan said soft and raspy.

"Gue doesn't want to hate Papa, but how do you make him sober up?"

Shila wiped her tears and tried to smile as wide as possible. His vision started to blur and get a little dizzy, but he wanted to look strong in front of Evan, his best friend.

His heart breaks to pieces as Evan recounts the actual wounds that occurred in his life. Shila felt guilty if she had thought no. He was so sorry for Evan.

"Whatever your problem, I'm ready to hear Van. Whenever you need me, I'm ready for you."
