Lovely Love

Longing

Nadine's anger at her lodger friend has not subsided. He just passed by in front of those gathered on the veranda while dragging the travel bag.

"Where are you going?" ask Nungky wonder.

"Week end at my college friend's apartment, all looking for lodges," replied Nadine coldly.

They looked on in shock. The dispute last night was not over, but they had forgotten about it.

"We can talk very well, Nad," said Rindy. "It's not like this is the solution."

Nadine snorts cynically. "You said the business is over. I want to know if you still have Bradley's facilities if I leave here."

"I swear, yesterday I was just messing around."

"I've never messed with life. Gerdy is my future. You have taken advantage of the situation. I don't like."

"But not like this either, Nad," said Friska. "Everything can be fixed."

"Please fix it, I'm leaving."

Nadine walks into an online taxi that appears on the page. They must be confused. Tomorrow there's an event to Thousand Islands sponsored by Bradley. He was fed up with this situation!

My mom asked me to come home this week because I haven't been home for a long time. The decision is clear, Nadine does not want to go home before the affairs at home are settled. That's enough he and his brother know. Mami just needs to know that this week she can't go home because of the many pending photoshoots.

Though Nadine wants to go on vacation to the city of Bandung. The city where the lover of his dreams resides. He did not know this decision was wrong or not, he just followed the whispers of his heart. Waiting is an impossibility to keep his love!

***

It's not hard to find Gerdy's address. The apartment is located on the main road. Pretty big and majestic. I don't know how many levels, Nadine didn't count them. The name of the apartment is clearly displayed in front of the fence.

Nadine sees a high school girl and a college student come in and out of the lobby. Many are sitting alone on park benches. This apartment is a special place for the son.

Suddenly, Nadine felt bad. He did not see the young man who was sought among them. Could it be that Gerdy was in the room with a girl?

His arrival must have been an unexpected surprise! And that's exactly what Nadine wanted in case their relationship had to end!

"Sorry to interrupt" Nadine said to a young couple sitting on a park bench. "You know Gerdy?"

"Of course!" answer the girl. "All the girls have their brains!"

So true Gerdy in the eyes of women, thought Nadine wryly. She is indeed highly qualified to be an idol: Handsome, rich, intelligent, and active in all campus activities.

"His guy is?" ask Nadine.

The girl with the shoulder-length hair asked, "Is there any need with her?"

A silly question. He's looking for it there's gotta be a need. But that question seems reasonable when looking at the attributes used. High School Girl likes origin.

"Yes" said Nadine Short.

"Well, this is the third woman to come this afternoon" the young man commented with black eyes. "Make up again."

Nadine's blood was rippling. Third woman? So this is what Gerdy does every day? Auctioning love to women every day? I never remember going to Jakarta! I wanted Nadine back then.

"A lot of fans are right," said the girl beside him. "Wear pellets time?"

"Well, how were you?"

"Don't unravel the past! You deserve the rest!" Then the girl gave Nadine a suggestion. "Mending home, disappointed."

"The girls are her girlfriends?"

"So auntie?"

"This apartment does not accept aunts, except the wife of the apartment owner who often reviews the handling of the building. Well, special aunt, all residents expect to be checked in her room, because it's very beautiful and sexy."

"Then?"

"Any girl can't get off the machine? The bunkers are mostly missiles, the engines need servicing!"

"They were Gerdy?"

"Everyone claimed to be a close friend. You must be a close friend, too, right?"

"The close friend is not necessarily the girlfriend," defended the young man sitting beside her.

"Self huh?" spray the girl. "Let's you go with Susi?"

"Cock it there? You go with Bobi I'm not mad."

"He's my cousin!"

"Love is blind. Add your cousin blind!"

"What floor's the apartment?" cut Nadine bad at their quarrel.

"Number 501, fifth floor," the girl replied. "Front of the elevator exactly. Not exactly."

Nadine walked towards the lobby door. He didn't need to claim to be Gerdy's little brother who wanted a vacation in this city. Security didn't ask at all when he offered the ID with some money in an envelope.

Anger crawled over Nadine's chest to see how free life was in this apartment. Gerdy never said he lived in a place like this. Never mind that night was part of his habit. Intentionally exaggerated to be free to go from him!

The young man must be taught a lesson! Not all women can be played!

Gerdy was reading a file by sitting back to the door when the door of his room was opened violently and half slammed shut. But he's quiet. Not distracting the slightest from the data it reads. He was busy making reports on research results in Kalimantan.

Such an event is common. Frenetic until far away at night. Shouting like a madman. Entering people's apartments without manners. If the door is locked, pounded, when there is a bell and plastered clearly on the door of the big writing: Do not enter carelessly except The King of Kong. 

If you want to live without rules, this apartment is the place to be. Security cannot strictly enforce the rules because of the abundance of cigarette money, even though they do not smoke. Sometimes he wondered what student apartment the rebel headquarters were. Aman sentosa only if the wife of the apartment owner comes to visit.

Gerdy's own parents disagree with this choice. They prefer their children to live in dorms. Controlled life. It's just a matter of dormitories for early-level students.

Gerdy was just flinched when he heard a melodious voice chanting with anger:

"I told you! If you want to leave me, this is not the way!"

The voice was well known to him. The voice that had up to this second made a mess of his mind!

"Not by letting me wait in Jakarta! Not by inviting your girls into the room! How many girls have you fucked today?" Nadine fiercely snatched the file in Gerdy's hand and slammed it to the floor. "You got no ears?"

Gerdy looked confused, he stuttered, "Nadine ... Why are you?"

The softness of the voice made Nadine stunned. The anger that burned his eyes was renewed as soon as it met Gerdy's gaze.

That look was still like the gaze he had expected. The gaze that holds the song of love. A look that holds a promise!

Those eyes were still like those two months ago. The eyes of a disappointed man. The injured eye heard those words!

"I'm sorry" Nadine sighed. "I hurt your heart...."

A girl armed with longing meets a young man stricken with turmoil. The shackles of time that tore apart taste ruthlessly decomposed in one embrace of love. A hug that persuades them to fuse roaring waves of desire in a cup of pleasure....
