Like Rubbish

Chapters 17.

Andini sat on the sofa of her room. He was fiddling with Joseph's cell phone. It was really new this time that he touched that advanced item. Previously at his father's house, let alone touch or borrow, just see Yasmin not allow.

"Yusuf besides being handsome is also kind, but why does his attitude sometimes sucks ?" grumbling themselves.

The phone in his hand suddenly shook. The girl almost jumped in shock. There was a call coming in on behalf of Joseph. Apparently the man had arranged everything well. Not only buy it, but also set the phone so that Andini can directly use it.

Andini slowly shifted the screen of the phone with a green picture. Somewhat hesitant for fear of a wrong touch.

Connected calls.

"Hallo, Andini !" the voice across there made the heart of the rebellious girl want to get out.

"Huh..hello !" his voice was shaking from nervousness.

"Do you like the phone I gave you ?"

"Yes, likes. Thank you !"

"An, I want to apologize because last night I was sassy for you. I have no intention of harassing, absolutely not ! it's all my fault that I can't control myself."

Andini. His heart's getting fucked. Hearing the man's voice alone was already very heart-shaking, especially if discussing and recalling the incident. When their lips stick together and collide. Andini even the difficulty of breathing at this time.

"Why lately every time I see you, my mind gets a little messed up. I.. sometimes like to think of things. Your beautiful face has made me fall in love. Andini, let's get married !"

"Yes, I'm the same. I'm ready !" but that's just Andini. Ahhhhh !

"Hello, An ! you why ? ready what ?" Joseph was confused because suddenly the girl was very excited to talk. But it feels like Andini's response is not connected to his apology.

God, it's just my imagination ! why do I think so ? embarrassing !

"I mean, I'm willing to forgive you, Joseph !" Andini held onto her chest that was breaking down violently.

"Ok, thank you. Well, then, it was before. See you in the dining room !"

"Let's see you !"

Call ended.

Andini still held her chest. His breathing is irregular like just finished a strenuous sport. He grew even more nervous after hearing Joseph's last words.

"Does that mean he's waiting under ?" pacing here and there.

"Ahhh, why am I getting nervous ? come on, this isn't the first time I've eaten with her. Relax Andini, you're not eating alone, there's Oma."

Tok tok tok !! the sound of the door being knocked from outside.

That must be Oma !

"Yes, Oma. I'll be down in a minute."

"Alright, hurry down An. Don't let Oma wait too long !"

Deggs ! that was the voice he heard on the phone. Ahhhh, again Andini made a heart attack. He did not dare to speak anymore.

***

Andini slowly stepped towards the dining room. His eyes widened because the atmosphere there was very different from last night. The atmosphere tonight is very crowded. Both Joseph's younger brother and his cousin had just returned from out of town. The beautiful twins Khesya and Khaira sit next to their cousins, Deby and Arkan. In front of them were Oma Merly and Joseph.

Ms. Merly introduced Andini to her grandchildren. "This is Andini, Joseph's close friend." She sat in the middle of Oma Merly and Joseph. Although there are many people in the room, it still does not reduce your nervousness when you meet the man who always makes him pound. Especially now that they are sitting next to each other.

The mood is boisterous. They were all very enthusiastic about knowing that the first brother already had a female friend. Ms. Merly just smiled. Joseph and Andini both bowed their faces.

"Close friend, you mean girlfriend ?" Deby laughed seductively.

"Cieeee, brother Yusuf has a girlfriend !" Arkan.

"Shuttt ! a close friend does not mean a girlfriend. Courtship is forbidden by our religion. Let alone dating, staring at each other should not. It was approaching adultery. Nauzubillah...!" Khaira advised her cousin's younger siblings.

Deggs ! Joseph felt overwhelmed by the words of his brother. He's getting guilty of touching an Andini that's not his right. Early feelings are not much different from the man sitting next to him. From now on, he should be able to take care of himself and dare to resist the touch of a man.

"But I'm happy. I thought Joseph's brother wasn't a normal man." Khesya laughed and followed the others.

Joseph cleared his throat and looked at them one by one. In an instant the atmosphere became silent. "Oh yeah, why did you guys just come home ? where to go first ?"

No one dared to answer. They were afraid that the first brother was already staring intently. Only Khesya dared to raise her voice. The fierce and somewhat insolent girl was indeed the most daring to face Joseph.

"We stopped by Louis' house. Khaira's classmate in Junior High." Khesya spoke loudly while spooning food to the plate.

"What ? Louis who likes Malakin Khai time at school ? he also likes to fight with you, doesn't he ?!" Joseph was half screaming. His gaze grew even sharper on his two twin sisters.

Khaira was scared. Khesya spoke again boldly, "Calm down, brother, Louis is not what he used to be. He's turned into a good man. It is very calm and calm. He's been in the pesantren." After speaking he immediately devoured his food.

"You have to be careful ! don't get too close to that guy. I'm afraid something bad happened to you." Yusuf still vividly remembers the disappearance of Khai. He doesn't want it to happen again. As the eldest brother, Joseph should have protected his younger brothers.

"Yes, ok ! we'll according to first brother !" ledek Khesya's.

"Yes, I'm very serious ! never underestimate what I said ! don't get too close and believe in men ! I don't want anything bad to happen to you. This goes for you too, Deby !"

Arkan pointed his index finger, "I, how ?"

"Because you're a man, don't ever do anything rude to a woman !"

"And never harass a woman ! if later you fall in love with a girl, then just get married, that's what mom and dad always say." Khesya spoke with her mouth still chewing. However, it can be heard clearly by all pairs of ears.

It was as if it had slapped Joseph in the mind. Again feel shunned. I feel more guilty about Andini. The question now is, does he like the girl or not ? even if there really was a special feeling in her heart for Andini, would she rather marry him ? Joseph could not enter his heart any deeper. He must be more convincing, his attitude to the girl can be said to like, love or just interested ?

"Already, don't talk too much ! let's finish your food !" Oma Merly just raised her voice. His smile was clearly visible.

And everyone was focused on eating, except Khesya. The girl was still talking about unnecessary things. Sometimes people who hear it giggle. While Joseph and Andini were both silent, dissolved in each other's minds.

***

This morning Willy was at his boss' house. His long legs climbed up the stairs firmly. Andini is in front of him. The girl was a little smirky so familiar. "Hello !" hand wave.

Willy would naturally never reply by saying HI ! that's not his style at all. The man continued his paused steps. Andini was upset.

You arrogant bastard ! just become an assistant just his style is already so ! joseph should have been looking for a more friendly assistant.

Dini grumbled slowly as she stepped down the stairs, until her focus was disturbed and her balance collapsed. He almost fell if Willy's heavy hands did not catch his body.

Joseph saw clearly that in Andini's waist had coiled his assistant's sassy hand. Why is her chest suddenly hot ? he did not like to see the girl touched by another man. Moreover, their distance was too close.

Willy took his hand off Andini's body. The girl stroked his chest, thank goodness he didn't fall. The assistant turned out to be good too. "Thank you for helping !" there was a slight smile that he showed Willy again.

The man had no intention of responding. He walked over to Joseph who had earlier cast a sharp look at him.

You arrogant bastard ! don't say thank you to him !

Andini looked back. God, since when did he stand there ? ehhh, why is he looking at me full of anger ? what's my fault ? didn't he just say sorry last night ? but even he was angry ?!

A moment later his face looked again forward. As fast as lightning blurred from Joseph's unpleasant gaze.

In the dining room. Everyone was already sitting in their respective positions, waiting for the first brother to be present there. Not long after that the awaited came. Joseph approached his grandmother to leave. He kissed the back of Merly's hand.

"You want to go now ? why not have breakfast ?"

"No, Oma. Joseph is not tasteful."

"To be forced, breakfast is important so that you concentrate on work."

"No, Oma. Later at the office." The man quickly stepped out of the place.

The boisterous voice of his brothers who called and greeted him could not be caught by Joseph's hearing. He was too late in anger at the girl who was currently silently staring at him in surprise.

Andini is absolutely outrageous. He should not smile carelessly at other men ! did the girl feel happy because she had been hugged by Willy ?

Joseph clenched his hands with all his might. Right now for the first time he wanted to smash the face of his assistant. He should've helped Andini, not Willy !

***

Joseph still had his face covered. The fire in his chest was still burning. Especially when looking at his assistant who is focusing on driving. It felt like he wanted to punch a punch in Willy's face. She was really still angry because the man dared to hug Andini.

"Why do you dare to hug Andini ?" can't stand it anymore, finally came out too.

"I can't dare to do that, sir. That girl was about to fall, so I helped her, not hugged her on purpose."

"Next time don't you dare touch it anymore ! you can't look at him either ! if he smiles, then turn your eyes in the other direction !" speech exploded.

"Good, sir. I understand." I also understand why you are so angry like this.

"Good ! if you dare to touch her again, then I will break your hand !"

For a moment of silence, no sound came out from the two. They dissolve in each other's minds. Willy was busy summing up his master's feelings for the girl of Mr. Daniel's former maid. While Joseph was busy looking for reasons why he could be this angry seeing Andini touched by another man.

"Will, what's love like ?" talking while looking outwards.

Willy was stunned to hear his master's ridiculous question, he was even more convinced that Joseph liked the girl. Focusing on driving, he spoke. "According to experienced people, love is a feeling that is only aimed at someone. In the near future, it will feel stubborn but happy. If you are far apart, then there is a longing to meet. And if someone else approaches it, jealousy, unwillingness will arise ! there is a feeling of wanting to always protect and see the loved one smiling."

Joseph was silent and well digested what he heard. It seems that the characteristics he feels at the moment do indicate that he has those feelings for Andini. Joseph loved that girl !

His heart spurred again as he acknowledged the feeling. Although there is anger at the moment, but there is also a sense of happiness knowing he is in love. After that, what should he do ? apply for Andini immediately ? but he himself did not know how Early felt about her.

"Will, Andini is beautiful, isn't she ?!" asked with a radiant face, imagining the sweet face of the girl.

"Yes, sir. She is a beautiful and sweet girl." Willy doesn't actually have any judgment on Andini. He just wanted to make his master happy.

Joseph returned furious, he kicked hard at the back of the chair his assistant occupied. "Don't tell me you like it !" he screamed again.

"It's not like that, sir. I didn't say I liked the girl." Didn't you like it yourself ?! because of love, you are complicated and like to discuss unimportant things !

"Review if you're lying !"

"I'm not lying, sir. Why are you so upset to see Andini being touched by me ? I did it unintentionally." Willy deliberately lured his master. I want to see what Joseph's reaction was.

"That...because she is the girl who..why ask so ? that's my business ! don't interfere ! and one more thing, never call Andini's name. Your mouth is not fit to say it. Call her lady, either in front of her or without her knowledge. Don't talk much anymore, just focus on driving !"

"Good, sir." That's what I did earlier. Keep trying to focus even though you continue to talk a lot !

Willy from now on must be more understanding of Joseph's attitude. His master was drunk with romance. And you know, sometimes love makes people go silly. And Willy's job is to make sure he prevents Joseph from doing anything uncontrollable, or even embarrassing !
