It has been two days since Kenneth's arrival at Ratih's home. Yes, we became familiar in a short time. Likewise with Bagas who has started to talk more with me and with Kenneth. We feel like three brothers.
God is Most Fair. He always met good people who thought of me as a brother, when I really had no brothers at all. And that's what makes me more and more able to easily recount the departure of my loved ones.
At bedtime, I always video call with my two beloved friends Radit and Alya. Yesterday I found both of them who were still cool hanging out at the cafe even though it was night. In addition, Alya news is that tomorrow he has got a job interview call at a small company in Jakarta. It's great! The goddess of luck is overshadowing Alya. Within a short time post-graduate, he had already gotten a work call.
I'm envious.
While Radit is still cool working part time while waiting for work calls as well.
I want to go back to Jakarta to start sending job applications and reorganizing my life. But, I still feel reluctant to leave Bali in the near future.
Here, I'm not just hitchhiking. Of course I gave money to Ratih ma'am to help with the cost of eating and so on, even though he refused. So too with Kenneth. That guy forbade me to spend money while he's still hiding here. So said. I doubt if he's hiding or even going undercover filming a reality show. It could happen, right?! In fact, if he was that famous, how could there not be a single journalist chasing him? Is he not an artist?
It's up .. and I don't know. I don't want to bother thinking about that spoiled guy.
To be sure, with his presence here, a little more even comforted me. Narcissistic, cherry-picked, and potent Kenneth often pisses me off as well as funny.
Today we walked on the beach. Kenneth deliberately chose a quiet beach because he was worried that many fans would pursue him when he met him. So said. He wears a mask, glasses, and a hat as a form of disguise himself.
A sebitunyakah?!
I stopped my steps and stood to look at the sea. My shadow of him never seems to be lost. Every day I still remember it, even if I don't want to. It's been almost two months since I left her. And I can hardly believe that this time he actually let me go.
Mournfully.
It's reality.
Although all of this was my wish, but the deepest corner of my heart hoped that he secretly told his men to watch over me. Like that time. Which means he still cares about me, because even he's still 'caring for me' even though we're far apart.
But this time it doesn't seem. That hope is only my selfishness that still expects it.
No one's following me. There is no longer him who always keeps me. It is clear that this is my decision.
Don't expect it, Zura ...
No!
Don't be like that.
Reiki's life was too hard for me to get into. I will never be able to stand by his side.
Oh come on, Azzura.
This is so much better.
I just need to hang on, and keep living life by forgetting about it. Slowly, because it is not that easy to forcefully remove the love that has been residing in my heart.
"Dreams anyway, –ayo!" Kenneth pulled my hand to keep going. I also obey him.
Going back to my life and my reality, I can still be happy even without that man. The man who stole my heart.
Suddenly Kenneth called out to my side, "Run, Ra!"
He grabbed my hand and took me away with him. We walked down the beach and turned to find a way out of the beach.
"Why the hell? Go, Ken! Cape nih." I gasped in Kenneth's pull forcing me to follow him.
"Run hunt! There's an infotainment reporter!"
"Are we caught?" whispered slowly. We had already crouched down to hide behind a large tree after running quite a distance and not slowly. My breath is still boring.
"No way. Safe," said Kenneth as he peeked.
I who was standing behind him was just trying to calm down and normalize my breathing.
But after I thought about ...
"Why do I have to run too?" my tabok on his back.
Kenneth grimaced small. "Ouch! what, Zura? Rara's? Zuzu's? Red is my handsome back ..."
"You're the artist, why am I running too? Run there yourself! Capek, know!" grunting's upset.
I walked slowly leaving him. Kenneth followed suit with my slow steps. "Yee .. You must now be a hot gossip too, Rara. A little bit of you must have been taken with me."
"Trus?"
"Yes trus you will certainly be sought also journalists, trus your life will also now be more famous again. Yes ... Now he is still in the stage, you are the key to my preparation."
"mean?"
"That means from now on be careful if you are in the crowd, or if you go anywhere. Can ribet–"
"SO YOU MADE ME A RIBET?" I get more upset.
Kenneth smiled crisply. "More or less git–"
"Why did you make my life so quiet? I came here to calm myself. This is even you come while bringing trouble. Can I kill you?"
Kenneth opened his eyes. His lentic eyelashes look adorable for his fans. But for me? He even looks more upsetting.
"You don't dong, Zuzu. I belong to many people. My fans will attack you. Know for yourself if fans join the netizen julynya pardon. You will be attacked from various angles because it treats me–"
"Kill you,"
Kenneth glared, "That's all the more. You'll be the enemy of every human being on this earth, especially my hardline fans."
"So your fans are big netizens?"
"Yes .. not really. They love me so much. It's only natural that they love me so much."
I heard it in my ear rather disgusting.
Kenneth with his million successes. Forever.
"Please calm down, Ra. I'll take responsibility no matter what happens to you."
"Review yes,"
"Please calm down."
"KEN!" do you know why I scream? because Ken just peeked my cheek short.
