If You Love

Eps. 48. Save your rest Rilly first

Rilly stored his fret about a name deep into the deepest part of his heart. He deliberately changed his number so he wouldn't connect with Brill again. Not not not wanting to be friends anymore, he just wanted to neutralize his heart from his joy that had grown beautifully. Hopefully later when he meets his heart can be pure to just make friends.

He was indeed carried away by Brill's treatment, his heart somehow being able to respond quickly to Brill's presence by his side. Is it because Brill is handsome? There are friends like Tama, she is also good looking and looks also trying to get close but she always subtly refuses and then Tama gives up when she sees Brill.

The day after Brill came home in Nas aunt Irma, Rilly and the family of aunt Irma left for Jakarta because the youngest son of aunt Irma married a Medan and the marriage was held in Jakarta. Then after the event was not able to return to Manado because of the threat of the outbreak, then Rilly and Oma Betsy left in Jakarta in the house of aunt Isye.

"Good morning, aunt..."

Rilly greets aunt Irma who just came out of her room. Everyone is at home all day because of their WFH activities only.

"For Ril, did you have breakfast?"

"Udah aunty, again invited the nurse to the front of the house..."

Aunt Isye sat down in front of Rilly.

"What did you drink?"

"Brown hot tan... Aunt would?"

"Yes, please ask me to make it. Aunty bored with our food, that-that's all along. Uh... Buy the same bread cake for breakfast, the bakery in front has been opened..."

"Udah tan. A few days ago Rilly went there..." Rilly rushed into the kitchen looking for the mother.

"Wake up brother Ando asked him to buy us bread..."

The new Rilly from the kitchen went straight upstairs, but then heard her name called Aunt Isye.

"Yes tan..."

"You go there, use the car just don't walk a long time..."

"But... Rilly hasn't been so good at driving, tan..."

"Everything has to be brave to make it smoother..."

Aunt Isye thrust a card while mentioning the pin twice.

"Udah inget?"

"Yes tan... Auntie's date of birth, right?"

"Yes... Yes, buy a lot of yes, his favorite mami, Ando the same om.. you still want it right..."

"Yes tan..."

With a little fear Rilly drives Aunt Isye's car. A lot of free time makes him taught to drive by brother Ando and just around this complex only.

At the bakery, Rilly chose according to everyone's favorite house five pieces each, specifically his favorite he only took two. While queuing at the cashier, his shoulder was patted by someone. The shocked Rilly looked over quickly...

A masked girl wiggled her head in a funny way, Rilly immediately knew who it was.

"Veel. hi..."

Giveel's voice rang out in his laughter behind the mask. Giveel pulls Rilly out and away from the queue. Giveel opened the mask and immediately saw his carefree face.

"Kangen Ril..."

"Veel.. take off my hand, can't touch..."

"It's safe now.. Don't be afraid, I'm healthy.. You are too?" Giveel auto released his hand which held Rilly's arm.

"Yes, anyway..." Rilly replied awkwardly afraid of offending Giveel.

"Eh, talk first yuk.. I'm really cool to know never see you again..." Giveel pulled Rilly's arm back.

"Veel, I'm waiting for the house, on breakfast not waiting for bread..."

"Yaaa.. yes, but I'll meet later... ah I picked you up after noon?" Giveel wiggles Rilly's arm, he pushers.

"Hehehe..."

"To my house just want to talk a lot of things with you, Ril. My story already knows a lot..."

"Hehehe..."

"I'll pick you up, I'll wa..." Giveel hugged Rilly for a moment and began to circle the bread shelves.

Rilly smiled and entered in the queue again. A few months there, I forgot to have a good friend. Last time to send each other the news that he knew Giveel finally went to college abroad as his parents wanted.

"Father, I'm visiting your house..." Rilly is still hesitant, because many people are afraid to interact with outsiders as a result of this outbreak.

"Grandfather, don't worry..You've been vaccinated, right?"

"Yes..." Rilly answered briefly.

"Yes, calm down, Ril. according to my mother if you're vaccinated, no problem..."

At the house of his best friend Rilly introduced Giveel to the same mom papi, brother and oma-opa. Rilly was confused to see the house of Giveel, just found out that the Giveel family had the largest house in this complex. It is very real that they are in the ranks of the richest people in the country.

In school he never agreed Giveel because bound by his hesitation to live in people's homes, he was afraid of being wrong. Now that the situation has changed at least, Armando is still indifferent but never heard from again complaining about him.

Lunch with friends is very uncomfortable, being in a very luxurious dining room for its size with cutlery that is also equally luxurious makes Rilly awkward but fortunately aunt Kharis already knows herself first and speaks familiarly to her, he said, makes Rilly feel comfortable.

"Rilly.. tasted all the cooking yes.. aunt deliberately asked for this cooking mbak because she knew her friend Ayin would come..."

"Yes aunt..." Rilly replied with shame that still controlled his heart so he was not free to interact with his family Giveel.

"Mommy is strange, Manado people are treated to Manado food..mami anyway who really kepengen, right?"

The Levite stopped his eating and was seen patting the back of the wife sitting next to him.

"Papi kayak do not know, mami already kangen hometown if already appeared Manado cuisine at this table..." Giveel chimed in his papi.

"Know.. papi knows best about your mother..." Om Levi turned his head and turned the distance with aunty Kharis.

A few kisses from Levi stopped by the head of Aunt Kharis. Rilly smiled at the romantic scene.

"But, here there's a guest, papi's starting to not know the place."

A resolute voice came out from Giveel's older brother who was sitting near Rilly. Rilly glanced, the brother looked seriously at his parents and Rilly noticed that Levi looked a little misbehaved, just threw a smile at his son and looked at Rilly. While aunt Kharis looks shy too.

"Eat ya Rilly, don't be distracted. eat that much..." The voice of Levi sounded very friendly.

"Yes, thank you..." Rilly began to be able to let go of the feeling of being around this large dining table.

There was the oma and opa of the Giveel, they were eating quietly on the other side of the dining table, only occasionally the elderly couple was heard commenting or inquiring about the food at the table.

"Don't hesitate, Rilly... But I don't think you're from Manado, because the way you speak doesn't show that. You know, that aunt Kharis used to say something, awkwardly use Indonesian well and right, Manadonya dialect is very thick..."

Om Levi said again, raising two eyebrows, appearing to be flirting with his wife because they were now looking at each other.

"Bapi ihh..." The spoiled voice of aunty Kharis chimed in on her husband, lashing out at his arms

"That's good, it's not like it used to be..." Levi bothered his wife with a funny mimic.

"Bapi.. continue to eat pi first..." The guy next to Rilly is making another sound.

"Yes Muel... Ummm... Rilly, I'm sorry son, he's too serious..."

"Pi?" The man called Muel sounded protesting.

"Hehehe..." Levi laughed and continued to eat.

Rilly smiled wryly, this family is so warm. She likes to be glued to Giveel who is spoiled by everyone including her brother. It can only be a wish for him. But he was happy to see something beautiful in the Giveel family relationship.

"Ehm... Later Rilly returned home accompanied by Muel aja.want ya Muel?"

Rilly was shocked when Kharis' aunt said the sentence on the sidelines of her meal.

"Yes ma..."

And Rilly was even more surprised that this guy next to her simply answered obediently, Rilly who looked to the side found the serious-looking guy was also staring at her.

In the meantime, Giveel and his papa mami smiled mysteriously. Mmmh...May be planning something, or just by chance?

Hii... We're staying in Brill first, maybe Rilly needs to look somewhere else... Hehe 😜
