He's Not Mine

44. Bucin

Praang, Suryo threw an ashtray against the wall beside me. I saw shards of ashtrays on the floor and went out of the room calling for an OB to clean it up. Suryo's crazy, angry in my room. I left him there on purpose.

‘Dek Resti where? I'm picking up now!’ I sent the message to Resti's number.

‘You what?’ answer Resti. 

I called him, picked up but there was no sound. “I'm heading to your office now, alone. No Suryo, Adek where?” I know Resti's afraid to make a sound if there's Suryo.

“Ready, I wait in front of the office,” he answered briefly and then the phone was cut off from across.

From afar I saw Resti wearing a blue uniform and a knee-length skirt complete with berets. Geez so cute anyway, I rubbed my face and supported my hand driven by the car, then stopped the speed of the car right where it stood. Resti peeked into the car before boarding, I lowered the window glass, “aku alone, ride!”

Slowly the vehicle I was driving drove out of the base, splitting this hero city. Shut up, that's what we did in the car, even though it's been miles of road.

“Mas,” Resti turned her head towards me carefully. I looked at him and raised my chin as if asking but making no sound.

“Where are we going?” tanyanya slow.

“Where are the same origin Adek!” I answered firmly by looking straight ahead without looking back at him. Resti brought his face closer to me, maybe he's not sure what he heard, “meaning?”

I gave the sweetest smile I ever had to this beautiful figure beside me. “What the hell!” Resti patted my hand and turned to the window. From the side I can see her cheeks are now more blushing with embarrassment.

Entering the freeway, I held his hand to control the car's hand clutch lever to make the car go faster, then let go and propped up my chin with my left hand on the steering wheel without looking back at him again, afraid to lose my heart look at his smile.

Resti started to turn on the car tape and choose some songs, it looks like he started to relax, “mau what song?” tanyakanya.

“What does Adek think is good,” I replied.

“Listen, no one calls me ‘Adek’ other than Imam.”

“What does it mean?”

He smiled mischievously, then sang the song he played. I don't remember the lyrics, so listeners are better.

“All my sisters at home I call ‘adek’ too, not only Dek Resti!” i'm snapping.

I enjoyed my time with Resti, although there wasn't much chatter, it felt comfortable. Approaching the rest area, I slowed down the speed of the car and turned into the parking area.

“You order a drink?” ask Resti when the car has stopped. I shook my head, I still did not dare to look at her, just a glance, not strong faith to see her beauty.

“Why did Imam look ahead? Don't get it?” tanyakanya.

I turned my face towards Resti, “what?” I turned around to ask. He smiled, I was melting! but trying to stay consistent is not smiling even though it is difficult.

“Don't look at me like that? Must be Imam want to be angry huh?” he's down. I breathed a rough breath, “iya, I can't forget the betrayal that Adek once did! But I also can not lie that this heart is still love Adek!” my spoken.

“Sorry!” only that word came out from his mouth that was partially covered by his hair from the side.

“It is not easy to remove the trauma of the Deck, the pain has not disappeared from here!” I patted my chest.

“Keep I must how so that Mas Imam will forgive me?” he glanced at me.

“From the first time I've been sorry! Just sometimes surprised, Adek how easy it is to change his heart? From me, move to Irvan, keep coming back to me again in no time. I still doubt the same Adek now. Can Adek forever heart for me?”

“There is no other man I like other than Imam!” 

I sneered and looked forward again, Resti patted my arm. “Don't believe? Whatever I'll prove!”

“Then did that also go to Irvan?” 

“No, Irvan never did, so I don't have to say rich!”

“Sometimes a girl fight is more terrible than a guy who is competing yes!”

“And yesterday I made it clear, Irvan was my first love. Mas Imam the last.” I laughed hearing that. 

“Turns, More Adek.” Then we laughed together.

“We want to do this?” ask Resti again.

“Kan was already said, where is important can be alone with Dek Resti” I glanced it.

“Don't say that, I'll fly!”

“Fly, I will see from below,” I smile ignorantly.

“I wear a sponge skirt, will not be visible from below.”

“What do you want to see is just you, what does this have to do with skirt span?” I turned her around, then she pinched me. “Definitely dirty mind, ngaku!”

“Just Adek's thoughts ah dirty, I don't!” i sneered.

“Udah yuks, we're back at the office again. Looking forward again!”

“Who's looking? Stay matiin hp,” I said then deactivate the phone, Resti follow what I do. “Oke, ready Ndan. Let's go again!”

"Daddy," call me.

"Yes, what is Mas?" 

"Don't tell anyone what we did today!"

"Why?"

"Now let's not, let's convince each one of our hearts."

"Mas Imam isn't sure of Resti yet?"

"Not sure of yourself! If we believe in ourselves, no matter what happens, we can overcome all obstacles, including Irvan's family."

"Why the hell from yesterday Mas Imam always took them into account. Irvan's gone, Angga ain't no more."

"Can't be so Deck. They're your parents, then, now and forever."

Resti threw away my face at my explanation, "if you can't tell me about today, I agree. But if it's your mom and her family, I don't agree."

Tonight I can't sleep, still the sweet smile of Resti. Is this what it's called falling in love? Like a teenager first. Later if I marry the same Resti how? I smile with an endless smile. I picked up a cell phone, wanted a phone call, talked to Resti again. Her number was active half an hour ago, maybe now she's asleep. 

'Still online sir? We copy yuk, ' a message came in from Lita.

'Againly do not want to coffee,' I reply to a message from Lita. Shortly after Lita made a video call, my reflex picked her up. "Hayo, Imam, what else? Tumben nights online," Lita plays her hair.

"Yes already, it's night. Just hang up the phone. I don't want to be disturbed."

"Pak Imam is like seneng nih, share his taste of seneng."

"Later you'll be jealous, weeping,"

"What really sir? Surely the Imam now only likes Lita, right? There's nothing else?"

"That's a big you, I told you I wanted to get married. Don't be sad if I stay married!"

Lita looked at my words, then decided on a one-sided call without excuse. I noticed Lita's contact profile whose picture suddenly disappeared. 

'Cocouple broken?' I sent a message to Lita, check one. I tried calling him but couldn't, be blocked?
