I'm Not Him

50

Beni knocks on Rania's room door to make sure that she is ready. Rania opened the door and looked at Beni who looked neat.

"You want to go?" ask Rania.

Beni frowned, she understood that Rania had forgotten her invitation.

"I didn't let you watch this afternoon"

Rania opened her mouth.

"Ah..iya, I forgot. I'll be ready soon"

Beni went to the living room and sat waiting, but before long Rania came out ready. Beni who was just about to sit down smiled.

"Why?" ask Rania.

"No! Usually if women say they will be ready, it means we will wait long enough. But you are different" said Beni while hugging her waist.

"I said for a minute" said Rania.

He avoided Beni's very face with his face. Then there was the sound of Dina coughing involuntarily to make them know her whereabouts.

"Einem!"

Rania took off Beni's embrace and turned around, she was surprised because there was not only Dina but also Bondan who looked at her with jealousy.

"You're coming too?" ask Rania.

"Yes, Bondan changed his mind" Dina said as she looked at his face.

Beni pulls Rania's hand and walks first to the car. Dina and Bondan followed him. Arriving in front of Beni waiting for Bondan and asked.

"Who will drive?"

"Just me!" answer Bondan.

Beni throws the key and invites Rania to sit with him in the back. Dina got into the seat near Bondan. They went to their mall. On the way, Dina and Bondan talk about the office event for Monday tomorrow. Beni frowned, she did not want to discuss the office matter.

"Hey.come on! We're gonna go double date, do we have to talk about office issues?" lamented Beni.

Bondan looked at Beni from the rearview mirror then looked at Rania who was looking out the window with a frown.

"What movie are we going to watch?" ask Dina.

"Some, I'll make it a surprise" Beni said.

"Oh yes, this is a double date, I hope you can really be a lover" said Beni while rubbing her hands.

Dina grinned, feeling that Beni's words and expectations were just a joke. Bondan and Rania did not respond. Beni and Dina stared at those who did not look happy at the event at all.

"Hey...you're nothing, right?" beni asked while holding Rania's hand.

Rania turned her head and smiled, she could not hide her worry about her brother. But he can't ignore the people around him either.

"Ngga, just nostalgia for the streets of Jakarta" said Rania.

"You miss the discotheque?" beni asked as if asking Dila.

Rania rounded her eyes and glanced at Bondan and Dina.

"Neither!" answer Rania terbat.

"When do we go to the discotheque, so we can relieve fatigue, right Bang?" said Beni.

Bondan answered Beni's question with a smile. He was uncomfortable with the conversation that should have been aimed at Dila instead of Rania.

Dina stared out the window, feeling that Beni shouldn't have discussed it, she already knew that she wasn't Dila.

~what does he mean he says that?~ ask Dina's heart.

A moment of silence was felt in the car that was driving, they did not know what else to say. While Beni smiled laughing at their silence.

At home, Vero sat staring at the night sky from the glass window of his room. She reads a message from Rania that she is going to the mall to fulfill Beni's desire to watch a movie.

"Message from whom? You go straight away!" ask Arumi.

Vero swallowed his own saliva, he was at a loss for what to say.

"I was just about to go to your place, there's a good movie, we're watching!" said Vero.

There was no other idea but to take Arumi away with him. Arumi looked at the astonished and felt strange.

"But.last noon we just saw a badly damaged restaurant, why are you...?"

Not done Arumi talk, Vero has interrupted him.

"Squeezers, tired enough to think this way, we'll just watch!" pinta Vero's.

Arumi smiled trying to understand what Vero was feeling.

"All right!" Arumi agrees.

Arumi returns wearing her jacket, but she stops and makes Vero stop.

"We take Yudi and Dila" Arumi said, calling them.

Vero panics and instantly picks up Arumi's phone and takes her by surprise.

"I just want both of you" said Vero.

Arumi is a little strange with Vero's attitude that often does things that he does not usually do. But Arumi went with him.

Vero rode a motorcycle with Arumi towards the same mall that Rania told him about.

Arriving at the mall, Rania sees the ticket held by Beni.

~THE GOOD WILD!~ heartfelt Rania.

The title of the movie that Beni bought for them to watch today. Rania immediately asked for advice from her brother, whether the film was good or not. But Vero did not reply.

Beni pulled Rania's hand to quickly enter. Bondan and Dina followed with them from behind. They're looking for a seat. Rania could not send any more messages to her brother, Beni would see it clearly because they were sitting side by side.

Bondan seems to dislike the situation, he sits away from Rania because of Dina's obstruction. His eyes continued to look the other way out of annoyance with Beni's spoiled attitude towards Rania.

While the movie is already starting to roll, Vero and Arumi arrive in a hurry, getting into the cinema. In the dark, Vero searches for the seat number and sits down with Arumi. Her eyes were also looking for Rania. He was a little worried if they were different rooms.

"The film is about to begin!" said Arumi.

Vero is still looking for Rania, Arumi clearly saw instead of watching the movie Vero's destination here.

"You don't want to watch, do you?" presumptive Arumi.

Vero.

"Honestly, who am I, who are you?" Arumi.

Vero smiled foolishly, he had to answer Arumi's question with good reason.

"I..."

"Sttthhhhh. The movie has started, don't be noisy"

Someone in front of them warned. Vero nodded and apologized, but stopped because he saw the person who was reprimanding him was Beni.

Arumi pulled Vero's arm back up straight.

"Sorry!" said Arumi.

Vero even smiled pinched Arumi's cheek.

"That's not much suspicion!"

Arumi feels treated sweetly by Vero. While Vero looked at Rania's head who did not look at him with a feeling of relief. He could watch while taking care of his sister.

Everyone dissolved in the storyline, Rania frowned feeling the film plot slightly offended her. Deceived by a couple but begins to fall in love with each other. Bondan feels that Beni wants to tell him that Rania is now falling in love with him.

Dina even feel sleepy and bored because she does not really like romantic movies. Vero does not care about the film, he is only alert to hold Arumi's hand and look at his sister.
