Love Starts With Dreams

Episode 18's

This afternoon I intend to meet Aldi directly because from yesterday Aldi did not also reply to my message.

When I arrived at the campus I went straight to class because a few minutes later the lecturer would come. I saw Aldi was sitting on his stool and smiling at me when I entered class, I ignored Aldi and immediately sat in my chair and did not forget to say hello to my two best friends. Not long after that the lecturer came and the lesson began.

"Alright the children of today's material is enough, do not forget the task is completed and another week collect it to the room Mr, thank you," said Mr. Azrif as my lecturer.

After the exit of Mr. Azrif, I quickly approached Aldi who was cleaning his books.

"Al, I'll see you at two in the afternoon in the park behind campus," I said and left without hearing Aldi's answer. I could see Aldi's shocked and confused face.

The new clock shows at one o'clock in the afternoon, there is one more hour for me to meet Aldi in the park later.

I decided to go to Cantin first with my two best friends.

"Vin want what message?" Ask Fitria to me

"Es warm sweet tea" I replied

"That's really the time, Vin!" said Fitria with her upset face.

"Hehe, Mango Juice, Fit," said I, who was taken by Fitria, then he went to order our order.

"Ay.." call me to Ayuni

"why Vin?"

"Where do I say Aldi?" I asked Ayuni.

"Well, by the way, Vin, you've never said anything!"

"I mean talking about my relationship with Aldi, Ay, I'm confused where to start talking about it."

"What do you mean, Vin?" Tanya Ayuni with a confused face.

"I want to clarify my relationship with Aldi, Ay,"

"You know Vin, Aldi has Fania now."

"Yes I know Ay, so I want to clarify the same Aldi. I also want to be happy Ay, although not the same Aldi."

"Yes, you have said that Aldi will be taken where your relationship is. If you love Aldi with you, I am sure Aldi will be more choosy than Fania," said Ayuni advised.

At exactly two o'clock in the afternoon I had arrived at the park behind campus to meet with Aldi, but already ten minutes Aldi had not come.

I took the novel from my bag and read it while waiting for Aldi to come. I glanced at the clock on my wrist was already at half three more, meaning that it had been thirty minutes I waited but Aldi had not yet come.

"Vina, are you daydreaming?" Ask Aldi

"Ah. en-gak ko," I answered stammered.

"I've called you several times Vin, but you're not horrified" said Aldi, I was silent.

"Aren't you daydreaming again, why Vin? Here's my story,"

Actually I was thinking about where I should start talking to Aldi, I was confused, and actually I was not ready to hear Aldi's answer later.

I always thought if I could be without Aldi, but if this continues Aldi will never appreciate my feelings.

I took a deep breath before I finally spoke.

"Al, I'm gonna ask you what exactly are we?" I asked Aldi straight to the point.

"You mean?" he asked with a confused face.

"I mean, you don't love me?" I asked Aldi.

"Vin, listen yes I love you very much, you are the best friend for me Vin," he said, I was hurt to hear Aldi's answer, 'friend' that's what Aldi always said to me. But how else is it the reality, I am indeed Aldi's friend right?

"Oh just a friend yes, hmm," I muttered somewhat disappointedly.

"What do you mean?" ask again.

"Al, you realize, you've hurt me. You don't value my feelings, you know I like you a long time ago, but you don't seem to care. You are free to be close to other women. You're free to date another woman, but me? I can't Al !!" obviously I'm at length.

"Vin, but I never forbid you to be with other men, I never forbid you to date other men."

"Yes you never forbid me Al, but my heart, and your treatment of me that makes me never close to other men." I explained with teary eyes

"You're selfish Al, you just want your feelings, but you don't care about how I feel. I feel like a fool, you know! I want to be happy for Al too, even if it's not the same for you, so please let me go!" I said with tears coming down.

"You may not hold me, Al but if you do. I tried to get away from you, forget you, but what? When I've been Ihklas you come again to give a million hopes to me, but when I start to feel comfortable again with you, you go. You always apologize, and I easily forgive you, but you repeat, you don't understand how I feel. Now please let me go, if you really don't want me. I cape, Al. I want to be happy as well. happy as you are with Fania," I explained at length still with a cry.

"I'm sorry Vin. I'm sorry if I hurt your heart, I'm sorry if I don't value your feelings, I know I'm wrong. I don't want to lose you Vin, I love you. Now I want you to find someone better than me, who can appreciate your feelings. Sincere love to you. I release you Vin, sorry for all my behavior, I do not mean for you to get hurt like this," said Aldi.

Hearing Aldi's words just now I can conclude that Aldi did not want me, and he chose to let me go rather than defend me.

Means I really have to go from Aldi's life, now I already know the answer. I just hope there is no regret later.
