"Gue wants a whisper. Here's loe's ear."
I close my ear to Noni, and suddenly the bell rings. Today's morning gymnastics schedule, I lazily left my chair.
"Loe's not coming?" I asked Noni who was still unmoved.
"No, the cave body is still tired after Jet Lag."
"Gue first, bye. Loe's fine in class. Don't steal it."
"Hahaha. My plan is to eat your lunch."
I chuckled at Noni's reply. My day with this kid is more colorful. Along with my classmates I walked out of the room.
\*\*\*
Tomorrow is National Exam day, and this week we are allowed to study at home. Of course I stayed in my room, except for Noni. This girl always comes to my house, bothers me and makes a fuss in my life. Of course he was always accompanied by his bully bodyguard Dave. Just like today, we're struggling with things in my room, while Dave lives in the living room.
"I'm actually disinclined by Dave." I said breaking the serious mood in the room.
"Let him." said Noni with a smile of her own.
"What about your crybaby?"
"hehehe.. loe remember Cin, the first day I went to school last week?"
"Where's the part?"
"The part I'm afraid Dave can read my mind."
"Yeah, Noni, you still think he can read your mind?"
"Now dong. And luckily he can't."
"What if he could? Loe lied to Loe's parents?"
"Not ****."
"yes, if I****why ask to be taught with me."
"hahaha, yes, too. Why was Cin?"
"For Noni, your brain is left at home?" I said frustrated while patting my own eel.
"Emang can be left Cin?"
"Impossible."
"Who knows if you can, you're smart. Who knows you can help me get one of my eyes near Dave."
"Gile ni son. Why do you admit that?"
"To be honest, I really like Dave." whispered Noni shyly.
"Look, he's Loe's brother. I like you too much."
"What's? Don't Cin" now that Noni was inching away from me, her face seemed to hold in horror.
"Oh my goodness Noni. Here and here let my loe brain straighten first. Be healthy."
"Well, my friend hasn't finished High School yet as a doctor. Great right." said Noni with a happy smile.
I secretly felt scary myself, realizing how weak my friend's brain was.
"So gini, Loe know my brother Giordani?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"According to Loe she doesn't like me?"
"Yes dong."
"If my mom is the same, you think the cave sister likes it not the same mama?"
"Dong definitely."
"Keep you don't like my mama?"
"No, we're both Cin ladies."
"Jeez Noni." I'm really upset right now.
"So you like Dave in the sense that you want to be his wife?" many frustrating.
I purposely threw this question to explain the affection of family and friendship to her. At once explain the definition of love that is not always between lovers and husband and wife. There is still affection between parents and children, siblings, friends, friends.
"Yes. I want to." replied Noni surprised me.
"Oooo.." I said for a moment.
"WHAT? Did I hear wrong? Noni Loe is healthy, right?"
"Yes loh Cin. I love Dave. That's why I'm afraid he can read my mind."
"So now you love clapping one hand?"
"How do you love while clapping Cin's hand?"
"O my God. Loe's been fed what the hell was childhood?" tanyaku plain.
"I don't know."
"I mean, you love Dave but he doesn't love you. That huh?"
"oooo... did he ever say love is loe?"
"He used to call me darling, dear, Princess."
"i see's. Is she dating you?"
"No."
"Did he get you married?"
"Not really."
"Did you ever confess about your feelings to him?"
"Don't let that happen."
"Well, is it okay for Noni to be a god-level baper again like Dave? this must be the effect of growth hormone. It's only natural in adolescence like a girl to be easy baper?" I murmured in my heart.
"Cins.. Cintyas.. Love's.."
"hmm, I heard it once."
"Don't tell anyone yes." asked Noni with a clear face.
I looked at her innocent face while keeping silent between curiosity and worry. Curious about the truth of Dave's feelings for her, as well as worried. Worry Dave never saw her as a girl to love. I'm stuck again, between two things. Between yes and no.
I decided to get Noni back busy with our lessons. Until dusk turns night, Dave knocks on my door and takes Noni home.
"Thank you for helping Noni" Dave told me.
"There's no need to thank him, he's also my best friend" I replied sincerely.
"Bye Love." said Noni who I returned with a wave of hands.
The two conglomerate boys finally left my house. Leave me and my sister who are back busy with activities at home. It's a good thing my parents haven't returned from work yet, so there's still time for me to prepare dinner.
"Sister, that bule guy is good-looking" said Giordani, who helped me wash vegetables.
"Okaya Gi. His name is bule." too."
"But what is the face of his sister indo really, brother? Are they half-brothers?"
"Hush, don't talk carelessly. He's Noni's foster brother."
"Who? so she doesn't have any parents?"
"Have deck. But a few years ago they died."
"Oh, what a pity, brother. But right sister, in my view it's a guy has a crush on brother."
"Geez, you mostly read novels?"
"Serius loh brother Cin."
"No way. Is this the age of Cinderella?"
"Yes, too, brother. Ever since our family went bankrupt, sister's been just like Cinderella. So upik the ashes."
"It's up to you" I said relented as I kept busy with my frying pan.
I can see how Dave loves Noni. A clear feeling was reflected in the man's eyes. Not just in his eyes, but his behavior as well. Even if I had a sister, would she take me to Noni's house and wait for me to come home? In fact, he also made sure Noni ate on time and always remembered to drink water. Evidently from repeatedly knocking on my bedroom door to just remind Noni.
The attention that an older sister rarely gives to her younger sister. It was obvious that Noni was so sure of his feelings. After I think back, the way Dave treated Noni from the beginning I knew her to this day was really special. So, it's impossible that Dave likes ash like me.
At least I can breathe a sigh of relief, thinking Noni will not be heartbroken.
\*\*\*
The National exam and the school exam are over. This is the last day Noni and I spent in school. . The school was busy with a farewell event that had just finished. While Noni and I chose to spend some time in one of our favorite places, the park is in front of the library.
"Cin, we're forever gonna be best friends, right?"
"It's definitely Noni."
"If one day we have a crush on the same guy, how about it?"
"Kan Loe loves Dave, can I have a crush on him?"
"Hahaha, yes, too. But just in case we have to promise Cin."
"What promise is Non?"
"Nih loe read." Noni took out two photos from her bag. There was our faces plastered while studying in my room, of course the shots of Dave. Noni flipped over the photo, showing a line of sentences listed there.
"Cintya Angelo and Noni Andrea promise to be friends forever. Even if we fell in love with the same man, then one of us had to support whoever was between the two of us who was eventually chosen by that man." I read out the sentence written there with a silly smile.
"Oh my goodness, Noni. This continues to be a signature in each of our names, is it?"
"Yes Cin."
"Even if this doesn't make sense, but for you I'm a ladenin' deh." I said as I reached for the pen and signed it there.
Noni also did the same, after which she framed each of the photos and handed them to me.
"Don't forget to take a picture to see our agreement sometime" said Noni smiling happily.
I nodded in agreement and we hugged each other.
"Cin, can I talk to you for a second?" The voice of the man who used to be very familiar in my ears now interfered with the moment of embrace between me and Noni.
