I'm Not Taking It Again

First Day of Work

Dirga came home with a lethargic face. Like there was no passion in him.

"Why?" ask Nindy.

"He already has a girlfriend" said Dirga while laying on the bed.

"Ck, Kak's new boyfriend," she replied.

"The boyfriend of the man who hit you yesterday" Dirga added.

"What's? What fate is this?" Nindy was really surprised.

There was no answer from Dirga's mouth. Nindy really saw the look of sadness on the sister's face

"Before the witnesses say it is legal and the marriage book is not yet in hand, there is still hope. Pepet keeps thinking he can knock him at the crossroads" said Nindy.

Dirga closed his eyes, Niar was already in sight. Does he have to hand it over easily? Dirga got up from his sleep, then contacted someone.

The next morning, Dirga takes Nindy to campus first. After that he went to see a specialist he called last night. After consulting and injecting fluids, Dirga was pleased and headed to the cafe Niar. Today is Dirga's first day working there.

The warm greeting from Niar made Dirga curl a smile. "Have you eaten?" ask Niar to Dirga.

"Already, Ma'am," replied Dirga.

Although it was only this time working as a waiter, but Dirga was not clumsy at all. He worked very well, Niar who kept watching Dirga from a distance curled a smile on his lips. Dirga returned back with sweat that had already flooded his face.

Niar gives a handkerchief that he holds making Dirga look at Niar's beautiful bead eyes. His heart beats unbearably. He took the handkerchief and smiled sweetly at Niar.

"Thank you, Ma'am," he said.

Niar just nodded his head then gave him a box filled with famous restaurant food. "Take it, you've worked hard today" Niar said.

Dirga received Niar's food and then he gave permission to eat for a while to other employees. When his heart was worried, it turned out that Niar who convinced his heart back to continue fighting for the woman he had been looking for.

"Kok eat with a smile," said Niar who approached Dirga.

"To remember someone, Ma'am," said Dirga as he continued eating.

"Your boyfriend?"

"What's that?"

"We haven't seen each other in five years, and our last meeting he said he was willing to let me go."

Angga's love story that he knows is the same as his love story with Dirga. Niar looked at Angga's face, his bead met with Angga's bead eyes. They looked at each other with eyes filled with longing.

"Your eyes remind me of someone" said Niar.

"Who?"

"The person whom I have always missed, and I hope for," replied Niar.

"Mad's girlfriend?"

"No, he's my ex-boyfriend" Niar said.

Dirga smiled faintly, it turned out that Niar still expected it the same as he still expected Niar.

"Maybe he's happy now with his wife and son" Niar added.

Dirga was silent, it turns out Niar thought if he was still with his parents' chosen wife.

"You ex-Mbak back again, do you want to accept him?" ask Dirga.

Niar smiled wryly. "I already have Mas Jicko as well as he, already has a wife" he replied.

"If, now he's alone? Do you want to take it back?"

Niar looked at Dirga's face, a look of sadness in Niar's eyes. "If, I haven't bonded with Mas Jicko maybe I'll pick him. But I'm engaged to him. We'll be married soon."

Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight. Niar's confession that initially made Dirga happy but, in the end, made her heart disappointed. He wanted to show who he really was.

Can he corner Niar?

Happy reading ....
