If You Love Him

Chapter 8 The Story That Happened

When Sany returned to work all welcomed happily, finally the workspace will return cheerful as usual. Not forgetting they asked the news of his father who is now much better.

Nisa's routine was back, that day she went home with Sany while chatting everything.

"Eeh... I just found out you're a cat miara, can I stop by to see her?" ask Sany.

"Of course" said Nisa.

Mily is an orange cat that is very adorable, she is still a small child with big eyeballs that look funny. With just one look Sany was made so anxious that she rubbed her cheeks on Mily's fur.

"If I could keep a cat, unfortunately, where I'm not allowed to keep an animal" he lamented.

"You can come here and play with Mily" Nisa said.

"Really?" ask Sany sparkling.

"Of course" he said.

"Yes! Mily we'll see each other a lot" Sany cheered.

Starting from that night he spent playing with Mily, Sany seemed happy until he also had a night just to spend a lot of time with the cat.

But at the weekend he actually had to go home to see his father, it was because although it was better vertigo could recur at any time if the lifestyle of his father was not changed to be healthier.

Though the intention of the four friends will spend time hanging out in the cafe as usual, unfortunately because Sany can not join Jaya also has his own plans so that only Akim and Nisa spend time together.

"It is not boring if Jaya and Sany do not exist" said Nisa.

"You bored? how about we go somewhere else?" tawar Akim's.

"Where?" ask Nisa.

Smiling meaningfully Akim just pulled Nisa's hand and took her away, when they apparently went to the rock climbing arena.

"Hi Kim!" greet an instructor who seems familiar with Akim.

"Hey Joe, how are you?" reply Akim while welcoming outstretched hands.

"Well, want to play?" tanyakanya.

"Mm, this is Nisa. This is my friend Joe," he replied, nodding.

They shake hands with each other while smiling, following the steps of Joe who leads in front of this is the first time Nisa doing extreme sports for him.

Even so he still tried especially when he saw Akim could climb the artificial wall until it reached its peak, it looks very easy but once tried just a few steps up each footing he was immediately exhausted.

Fortunately Nisa had time to warm up as ordered Joe, otherwise her legs and hands must have been cramping.

As instructor Joe was quite amazed also by the tenacity of Nisa, he wanted to try several times even though he continued to fall and when his body hit the wall quite hard.

"You okay?" akim asked worried because he knew it must be painful after three falls with the body that hit the wall.

"Well, just a little bit of an ache" he replied.

"We should rest first" he said, looking at Nisa's reddish shoulder.

He was afraid that if Nisa went up again and fell back like before this time his shoulder would be injured, fortunately Nisa was not stubborn. He agreed and let Akim compress his shoulder.

"Thank you" said Nisa to take the bottle.

"This is the first time you've tried, why don't you stop when you keep falling?" joe asked curiously.

"Why should I stop?" nisa's reply was confused which made the two men astonished.

"I mean usually a woman will stop when she feels pain, but you don't. It's like you don't care if you keep getting hurt" Joe explained.

Nisa looked at Joe for a long time, trying to digest that explanation that he still did not understand.

"I just still want to do it, I think it's exciting to do this sport. Is it not natural to fail at the beginning? I just tried it the first time" he said.

Joe frowned, only this time did he meet a truly simple-minded woman. This makes him even more interested in Nisa, when they say goodbye Joe invites Nisa to come again and he will give a free lesson.

"Where's your phone?" nisa asked as they were on their way home.

"Oh this," he said, handing over the flat object.

"Ah pin," said Nisa when she found the phone in the key.

He thrust the phone back at Akim but Akim justu tell his pin code, Nisa also pulled the phone and opened the password.

While trying to climb a rock he told Akim to take some portraits of himself, so Nisa borrowed Akim's phone to move all his photos.

Some good photos he uploaded on his sosmed, a few minutes later Sany who saw the post sent a message to him in the form of envious sentences.

Nisa replies that if Sany can hang out she will not go to a rock climbing place, then she explains that she was invited by Akim because Jaya also has her own plans.

The next day when meeting at the office of Sany who was curious again asked what it was like to go alone with Akim, suddenly the question made Nisa confused.

"What do you mean? yes.usual, like going with Jaya," he said.

"really? don't you think Akim is more attentive than Jaya?" ask Sany while smiling.

Nisa begins to compare it, after thinking back on several occasions Akim did pay unusual attention.

"It was just attention as a friend, nothing more" he later said.

"Omong empty! I think Akim likes you," Sany argued, which made Nisa more gawky.

"What are you talking about? how could he like me? she actually likes you!" his objection.

Sany's voice suddenly changed, he sat in his chair and started playing the ballpoint pen.

"I used to think that way too, even I felt we loved each other. But Akim never expressed love, especially when I brought Akim to meet my parents it turns out my mother did not feel suitable with him. It made me finally keep my distance for some time before finally returning to my usual attitude" he explained.

Nisa was silent, apparently the story was indeed they had experienced like Jaya said. Looking at the present situation he draws the conclusion that Akim is still hoping on Sany but Sany who is more concerned with family opinion does not give him hope.

"Now Akim and I are just friends, so I think Akim likes you to see how he treats you" Sany said with a smile.

"No! there is no more relationship between the four of us than friendship" Nisa argued.

"Don't be a hypocrite, we're not high school anymore. After all you guys look a great fit," teased Sany.

But whatever Sany said he did not care, at this time his heart was healed from old wounds but that does not mean it is ready to be open to new people.
