Hate to Be Love

Chapter 41

"You've fought well, you're the greatest player from Cendikia High School. You are great fighters for us. No matter what happens we remain in awe of you, raise your spirits. Losing or winning you are still the greatest fighters for us." Arumi cheers up on her friends.

"Oh, yes. There's one thing you should know, if you lose it means I'm the same Laras going to Korea with the Nusantara High School basketball team, you're willing to let me and Laras go without you?" ask Arumi.

"I'm the same Laras hoping you're the winner, and we're on holiday together in Korea!" shouted Arumi.

Arumi's style of supporting her best friend is hilarious, but it can arouse a tempestuous spirit in the hearts of her friends.

"Arum is right, we have to be more careful and vigilant, increase our strength to beat them" Aldo said as a basketball team.

The hearts of Arumi's friends begin to be moved, and they are determined to win.

After that, Tian also gave a little direction to them.

The long whistle again sounded a sign the second half was about to start.

All the players returned to the pitch, this time they changed positions.

Satria who has the ability to seize the ball and the most agile is in the position of point guard, Rendy is in the position of Shooting guard, Grace as a small forward, Aldo as a power forward, and Betrand as center.

They will use some strategy in this match.

"Stay keep one by one" cried Aldo as captain.

The game began, this time the defense of the Cendikia High School team was getting stronger, in the early rounds Betrand who always played himself became the center of attention of the opposing team, everyone started to surround Betrand so he couldn't score.

Therefore, the Cendikia High School Basketball team began using the fastbreak strategy so that they quickly scored points.

Aldo is free with no guard from opponents as opponents focus on Betrand freely ticking the tree point several times so their suspension skyrocketed away leaving the opponent's score.

Finally, the Scholar High School basketball team won at the end of the second round. (Yes, who won the Cendikia High School team because the author wants to bring the basketball team to Korea, we continue the story of Arumi and Tian in Korea, yes readers🙏🙏)

"Yeah!" shouted supporters from Cendikia High School.

They jumped happily. The atmosphere was increasingly boisterous and boisterous with the screams of the supporters who echoed.

Arumi and Laras ran towards the field.

Aldo looked happily at Arumi.

"Korea we are coming!" aldo shouted at Arumi and Laras.

The players embrace each other, Ridho hugs his best friend.

"Congratulations, Bro," said Ridho.

Tian returned a hug from his best friend, he was delighted.

"That means we go to Korea together, Bro," Ridho said excitedly.

As guidance teachers, they will be included in the journey to Korea because the victory achieved by their students did not escape the results of their hard work as mentors.

"Mhm," muttered Tian nodded.

For Tian to go to Korea is not special because to go abroad he just asked Nick to prepare everything. However, this trip will feel different because he will go with the girl who has now started to attract his attention.

Little by little, Arumi made Tian start to admire her. All this time the hatred that was in Tian's heart towards Arumi was only because the girl dared to oppose herself and dared to take her beloved basketball.

The scorching sun began to slip on the sidelines of the simple room curtains belonging to Laras. The warmth of the sun did not disturb him who was still asleep under the blanket.

"Geez, this girl is still not up yet, too" muttered Ranti as she opened her daughter's room door.

He shook his head as he saw his daughter still drowning in a sea of beautiful dreams.

"Thank you" Laras said in his sleep.

"What dream, anyway?" mummified Mother Ranti trying to guess her daughter's dream.

Finally, Ranti approached the Princess' bed.

"Laras, wake up in the afternoon," said Bunda Ranti while pulling a blanket that covers the body of the Princess only wayangnya.

"Bun, I'm still sleepy, anyways today is a holiday, Bun, let me sleep for a while longer," whined Laras still in a state of blindfold.

"Astagfirullah, the quality of girls still sleeping at this hour. Come on, get up, son." Mother Ranti wiggled the body of the Princess.

"Oh, Bun. I'm still very sleepy," said Laras.

He was still reluctant to wake up from his sleep his eyes still felt very heavy.

"Okay, Race. Have you prayed at dawn?" ask Mother Ranti to her daughter.

"Udah, Bun." Finally Baras started to slowly open his eyes.

"It's noon, son. Come on, get up," said Mother Ranti.

"Ih, Mother. I'm still sleepy." Baras rubbed his eyes.

"Tumben you still sleepy? It's 10 o'clock, you know" said Bunda Ranti while pointing at the clock on the wall room Laras.

"Huh? 10 Hours? Mother lied," cried Laras.

"Yes, Honey. If you do not believe look at the clock," said Mother Ranti.

"Oh my goodness, Bun. I have an appointment to go with friends," said Laras began to panic.

Laras had promised to leave with Nick at 11:00 which means he only has half an hour to get ready.

"Where are you going?" ask Mother Ranti wonder.

Not usually the princess panics if she wants to leave the house.

"Road, Bun," answered Laras.

"Where to go, Race?" ask Mother Ranti wonder.

"Not yet, Bun. Look at it later," replied Laras.

Laras stood up and stepped into the bathroom, leaving the woman who had given birth to him in confusion.

"Tumben Laras went the street not telling me where? The kid wants to go out with his friend, eh friend? Which friend is it?" Mother Ranti continues to monologue alone.

He kept wondering who his daughter was going to be with.

Mother Ranti faithfully waited for her daughter to finish bathing, she wanted to clarify again the princess was about to go where and with whom.

Before long Laras came out of the bathroom using a bathrobe and a towel wrapped around his head.

"Lho, are you still here?" laras asked in wonder when he saw the mother still sitting on her bed.

"Ras, you should know where you're going?" ask Bunda Ranti full search.

"Oh my goodness, Bun. At best I just go to the mall or the park" replied Laras.

"Who did you go with?" mama Ranti asked to look at her daughter.

"Mhm, I-I want to go de-with,-" Laras seemed confused as to what to answer.

She hesitates to tell her current closeness to Nick.

Seriate...
