(Part 23: College Time)

I used to tell myself that no matter what, even if Malik loved another woman and married her, I would stay by her side, because that was how deep my love for her was, but after all this even my love is not really deep.

“Malik, why the hell if dating intermittently, I mean why is nothing serious anyway?” I asked, we are currently sitting in the campus cafe, we are still on the 2nd floor of this university. If my class is over, Malik and I will meet at the campus cafe.

“Ya said for a long time, if it is done his business, yaudah finished also the relationship.”

“What does Malik mean? Is it always about the benefits? how are you feeling?”

“Important feelings Sera, the important affairs resolved.”

When Malik answered that, I felt that he was a cunning person, every connection was always about utilizing, but somehow this heart could not go anywhere other than looking at his heart.

“If there is a woman who loves you sincerely, then is able to give whatever she has, will you still have the heart to leave her?” I'm not expressing my heart, I'm asking if she knows how I feel.

“I will still leave it, because .... “ Malik hangs his answer.

“What?”

“Bawel ah nanya-naanya mulu. Anyway only Seira who will never stay Malik, now can we order coffee again?”

I'm blossoming? Not at all, because the motto is for friendship, of course he will not leave me, his best friend, I will always be beside him no matter what.

“Malik, I picked up our coffee yes, it's done tuh.” I went to the cashier and got the coffee, before I went back to the table, and the waiter gave me the most expensive piece of paper and bread, the Croissant Chocolate Assorted, I read the paper, again from the stupid woman who wished Malik liked her.

“Nih.” I'm delivering coffee and bread.

“I didn't miss the bread, Ser.”

“Custom, fans.nih HP number is the same name, the person sits at the table there tuh.” I pointed to the right of the position in front of us. A woman whose makeup is thick enough, dressed in mini waving at Malik, actually no girl wants to go to college anyway!

“Crazy mbak-mbak kece, gokil!” I teased Malik, even though between my temptations there was a sense of pain in it.

“Mbak.” Malik called the restaurant waiter.

“You have extra order?” Maidservants prepare with pencil and paper in hand.

“This mbak make it aja.” The waiter received his bread and was confused.

“Iya take it, next time ingetin my face yes, if there is a nulis like this nih,” Malik shows a paper containing the phone number and name of the woman, “don't accept, say I'm allergic to bread and chocolate.” Malik was serious when he said that.

I looked straight at the woman who gave the bread, she looked clumsy and embarrassed that Malik had clearly returned the bread.

“Kejam highly lu.” I reprimanded him, he's cool with the laptop.

“Kan you know I'm allergic to chocolate and all milk, make emotions only, women really so, keep your price, why he love bread.”

This is one of the reasons I never dared to express my heart to her, other than not wanting to lose Malik, I also know that she hates women who are outspoken in expressing interest, she said, I was not silent and resigned to my feelings, I was just waiting for the right moment, when Malik felt that no woman could stand up straight with him like me.

“Malik, Erika yesterday phone, he said you left him right again watching, you run away from the cinema.” I remember Erika Malik's current lover yesterday confided, even though I don't like Erika or any of Malik's girlfriends, I will still try to maintain a good relationship with them, because I want to look like a good friend in Malik's eyes.

“Partially he watched as a sakau, nyender mulu, males me.” Malik does not like spoiled and childish women.

“Sorry yes.” I apologized for Erika texting me and asked Malik where, I told him, kasian also from yesterday he asked Malik.

“Well did you tell him we're here?” Malik looks angry.

“Malik, I ..”

“Sera, you unplug me also unplug. Don't try.” Malik is so, very hard if you do not want to relate to women.

Erika is the son of an official who is also the chairman of the campus foundation, since they are dating honestly I feel whatever student affairs I have on this campus feels easier, starting from the scholarship funds that increase every semester and the last pocket money, even though in the scholarship program there is never an allowance on this campus, maybe Malik asked Erika to help me by talking to her father who is the chairman of the foundation.

Not only this once I feel Malik helped me through his women, in the past Junior High School and now college, whether my feelings are alone or it is true he helped me, it is good to be Malik, much liked so it all feels easy.

“Ser, it's okay, you're here, I just need to chat with Malik.”

“Ok Erika, I'm sitting there ya.” I covered, Malik looked at me with an angry look.

I could not hear clearly their chatter, precisely Erika's talk because most of her talk, Malik only seemed to shake his head and shrug occasionally, all I could hear was, Erika apologized repeatedly.

Aware of her free efforts, Erika finally gave up and went to the cafe while trying to wipe her tears. I went back to Malik's bench.

“Why him? why you?”

“Marketing?”

“Well soooooo!” I shudder pretend I don't care.

“And I told you I don't like anything, he must have told you and you answered plainly, right?” Malik accused me of conspiring.

“Long of old Malik.” I grinned the horse.

“Love is he fit about me?”

“Mayan, his used laptop that he said he had not kepake, I actually said pinjem, uh he asked to use only, well address must be returned nih.” Malik knew that from the first time I always got rewarded by selling information about him, it was he who taught me to benefit from the information I gave him, he was indeed a sexy cunning man.

“Basic matre, temen for sale aja continue.” Malik protest.

“Trus, why? Don't talk about deh.”

“Yes, he already knows what I don't like from, trus why now he sells it all, don't want to change yes cut!” Fucking playboy!

“Malik, later if you meet a woman who really you love what will you do?”

“Give me everything I have to make her happy.” Duh Gusti, so sweet Malik.

“Trus if he doesn't like you, that means you get karma.”

“I don't care, because love is so, right? It doesn't have to be by his side but I will survive, if it's a big love, it will be strong, even if love is not together.”

I was saddened by Malik's view of love, I felt that he was talking about me, how my love clapped one hand at him.
