Hate to Be Love

Chapter 32

"No, Ma, Pa," Tian said covering up what was now a burden on his mind.

"You got a problem, honey?" ask Lady Sarah curiously.

He was convinced that his son was carrying a burden right now.

"There, a little, Ma. But mama is calm, Tian can finish it, really," Tian said.

Finally Tian was honest, but he did not want to tell his parents, because the problems he now faced were the result of what he had done.

For some reason when Tian was in Arumi's presence, his mindset was too childish. It was as if his age had turned into a still unstable teenage boy.

"Are you sure, honey? Did you need to step in to get close to the girl?" ask Lady Sarah who misrespected.

He thought his son had now found a girl who would be made a companion for life.

"Ah, mama's not the problem, Ma. I haven't thought about it yet" Tian said, refuting his mother's words.

"So you said girl, mama thought you were trying to get close to a girl, seeing your age you seemed to deserve to get married" said Mrs Sarah.

"Don't you, Ma. I'm still looking for a good woman to be the mother of my children" Tian said.

Farhan was silent on the conversation between the mother and the child.

"Yes already if so, if later you already have a choice do not forget to directly tell mom," said Sarah hopeful.

"Mama, just calm down" Tian said.

"Well, I went into the room again, Mom. There's a lot of work to be done," Tian said.

"Yes" said Lady Sarah.

Tian stood up and stepped out of the dining room towards his study next to his room on the 2nd floor.

"Papa look, right. Her face was gloomy" Sarah told her husband after she confirmed Tian had left the dining room.

"Start, Ma. His name is also a young man" Farhan said in response to the wife's complaint.

"Oh, Papa." Lady Sarah was upset with her husband.

He stood up then stepped out of the dining room towards his room.

The next day when he came home from school Laras came to Tian who was sitting on the edge of the basketball court while waiting for the training time to come.

"Sorry, Sir. I'm interrupting" Laras told Tian.

Nick raised his eyebrows giving support to the friend. Ridho thought Tian had a taste for his student who was now in front of his best friend.

Tian shook his head.

"What's up, Race?" tian asked his student.

"There is something I want to talk about, can you come with me for a moment" said Laras.

Tian glanced at his best friend, Ridho nodded his head gesturing for the friend to follow the girl.

Ridho stood up and followed the steps of his students.

Laras led the teacher into a quiet hallway, and Laras stopped his steps.

"Sorry, Sir. I just send a message. Someone wants to talk to my father" said Laras.

It wasn't long before Arumi left the classroom.

He stood right in front of Tian carrying Tian's beloved basketball.

"Now, I turned your ball around! If because of this you do not stop hating and making me difficult then from now on this ball I turn," said Arumi firmly.

Arumi did not want to talk courteously with the man she hated.

He threw the ball right in Tian's stomach.

"Auw," softly Tian felt a pain in his stomach.

Tian does not immediately accept the basketball that Arumi threw at him.

"Crazy girl, the energy is strong as well" Tian murmured inwardly.

Arumi stared intently at Tian.

"And this! Here's your broken car! I think this is enough!!! I don't want to owe a man who has no heart." Arumi put some money in Tian's hands.

Meanwhile, Baras was silent.

"One more, starting today I don't want to deal with you. Our business is done here!" arumi snaps at Tian.

Arumi pulls her best friend's hand, she steps towards the laboratory to get ready for additional lessons with Ridho.

Tian was glued to his place, his eyes staring at the basketball and the money that Arumi had given him earlier.

"Hey, what's up, bro?" ridho asked his best friend when he saw Tian quietly glued to the school hallway.

Ridho crossed the passageway into the laboratory.

He accidentally saw his best friend who was dumb alone there.

"Eh," said Tian.

He woke up from his daydream.

"What money is that?" tanya Ridho looked at Tian's hand that was holding onto the money.

"Mhm," muttered Tian.

"Have been in training, I went to the field first," Tian said.

Tian deliberately switched the conversation, Tian put the money in his hand and then he stepped towards the court while carrying the basketball that was given by Arumi.

Tian started training his basketball team. This time he split the team in two and told them to play against each other.

His mind this time did not focus on training his students, as much as possible he put his thoughts together on his students despite the occasional glum face implied from the look on his face.

Before 17:00, Tian closed the exercise.

"OK, Kids. This time, the training was quite old. We continue the next meeting," Tian said, closing the exercise today.

After that Tian stepped towards the parking lot.

"Sir Tian seems like there is a problem again" Aldo told Rendy as they were preparing to return home.

"Yes, his face is so moody" said Rendy.

"Eh, I just saw him talking to Arumi in the hallway of the school, that's what makes him moody," said Satria along chimed in on his friend's chat.

"Arumi?" muttered Aldo wonder.

"Yes, there seems to be something between them" Satria said again.

"Hush, don't be weird. Do you want Arumi to be angry with Lu?" ask Aldo.

"Yes, Sat. You know how Arumi is," said Rendy did not want to interfere with the affairs of Arumi and her teacher.

Arumi is famous for being a kind and friendly girl, she never hurt her friend and she always stands up for who is bullied. Everyone at the school respected the figure of Arumi.

"Yes too, anyway." Satria nodded.

"Yuk, go home" Aldo asked.

"Yuk" said his two friends.

They stepped into the parking lot and prepared to go home.

Likewise with Arumi and Laras, they have finished additional learning with Ridho.

They stepped towards the parking lot, Arumi also drove his motorcycle leaving school.

Arumi drove his big motorcycle at medium speed.

As Arumi crossed the road to the Laras housing estate, they saw a crowd of people.

"What's wrong, Bag," asked Arumi to her best friend.

"Eh, yes, I don't know either" answered the plain Laras.

"It looks like there was an accident, huh," said Arumi.

Arumi and Laras got off their motorcycle and stepped up to look at the crowd.

Arumi and Laras rounded their eyes to see the victim of the accident.

Seriate...
