Missing Scraps
22. The Eps 21
“Gue will cancel my agreement with Gilang. As long as you want to accept me and stay Gilang forever.” Tawar Restu, Zahra flinched.
“Where's Ra?” ask Restu when Zahra doesn't answer. Zahra seemed to think,
Zahra looked at Restu listlessly.
I'm sorry Lang, it's for your company. Inner Zahra.
Restu saw the worry in Zahra's face, he pulled out his phone. Restu seemed to be struggling with his phone and then thrust it at Zahra.
Zahra looked surprised to see a picture of two people laughing. It was Gilang, with a girl.
“Ngga possible!” tepis Zahra returned the phone to Restu. Restu raised his eyebrows and smiled at Zahra.
“What could not be Ra? Same girl that's pretty tight. Maybe they are dating because while in Australia, they always go together everywhere.” Restu explained. Zahra tries to keep thinking positively.
“Name Nesya, I, Gilang and Nesya, one campus. And we're friends with Ra.” Restu said when he saw Zahra just fell silent. Zahra was surprised to hear that. Because as far as Zahra knew, Gilang hated Restu so much, even in the school building at that time, Gilang's gaze was eager to kill Restu. And Restu is also like Gilang, where maybe they are friends.
“Gue know, you don't believe me if I'm the same Gilang sahabatan. But what else, Ra? The reality is koq. In the past when we were Junior High, Gilang hated me because I deketin lo, because Gilang also like the same lo. In Australia, I met again at the same University as Gilang, and who would have thought we would be deket at that time. Then I know the same Gilang girl named Nesya, and make a friendship with him. And now, Gilang hates me again, for the same reason, but with a different girl. You must know who the girl I mean is.” Restu continued, Zahra was surprised.
What the girl in the photo is that Restu meant. Inner Zahra.
Restu seemed to smile happily as he looked at Zahra who seemed to be thinking of something.
“Kalo lo think the girl in this photo I mean, it's bener.” Guess that Restu seemed to know what was in Zahra's mind.
“I know, it's just your wits right? Let me stay away from Gilang.” Said Zahra trying not to be affected by Restu's words just now.
“It's up to you not to believe my words. But someday you know the truth, my offer about you what not to be a girl I still apply koq, until anytime. “ said Restu then left Zahra.
Zahra was glued to her place. Zahra remembered Restu's words back then. The girl, who was on Restu's phone at the time, is now in front of Zahra.
“Lo koq can be here? When to go to Indonesia?” asked Gilang to Nesya, Nesya patted Gilang's arm.
“Stupid maybe hahaha, I'm back yesterday.” Nesya laughed crisply as did Gilang.
“Can only lo, oh that.” Said Gilang in between his laughter, Zahra saw the familiarity between Gilang and Nesya. He can't stand it. Is it possible that Restu's words were true? Inner Zahra.
Zahra decided to leave that place.
“Ohya where is this lo girl you want to know to me?” asked Nesya with a smile.
Gilang once told Nesya that he had a special friend. Even someday, Gilang will make her a lover. Nesya was very happy to hear it and wanted to meet Zahra.
“Oh yes to forget, here A,- oh where is he?” Gilang was surprised when Zahra was no longer in place.
“Why Lang?” ask Nesya who is also worried.
“Stop where he went.” Gilang. Reza patted Gilang on the shoulder.
“Why Lang?” ask Reza. Gilang looked at Reza listlessly.
“Ara don't know where.” is He said, Reza chuckles at hearing it.
“Zahra again same nyokap and bokap me, yuk to there. Yes, papa also nyariin lo tuh. Yuk.” Said Reza taking Gilang and Nesya.
Yes, Nesya is Reza's half-sister who continues his studies in Australia. Nesya may look more fashionable than Zahra, but Gilang never glanced at her in the slightest, especially after learning that Nesya is the sister of her best friend.
Gilang once told Nesya, that Zahra whom he liked was very close to Reza, his brother. And Gilang thinks Zahra and Reza love each other so that makes Gilang a little desperate for his feelings. But Nesya supported him not to give up. From the story that Nesya is very curious, like what figure Zahra, who has stolen more attention from Gilang even Reza as well.
Reza, Gilang, and Nesya head to the Keina family's oversized table. Reza's parents introduced Nesya to Keina's family. So did Zahra.
Zahra and Nesya were so shocked to hear that.
I left Keina with Reza, because Reza was my own sister. And now Nesya is my brother too. Should I give up my love for my brother again? Inner Zahra.

Zahra was driven home by Gilang. On the way, Zahra fell silent and continued to look at the road through the glass door of Gilang's car. Gilang looked at Zahra in wonder.
“Ra? You why?” tanya Gilang was worried.
Gilang felt something strange after returning from Reza and Keina's engagement party earlier. Zahra was silent. Until they reach Zahra's house. They're down. Zahra was about to enter his house, but Gilang called out to him.
“Ra, tomorrow will not go with me?” ask Gilang. Zahra seemed to think.
“Bby.” Zahra said briefly. Although only a short answer that Gilang can, but enough for him to smile.
“OK, tomorrow I pick up at eight. Bye Ra” Talang said and waved his hand
Zahra stared at Gilang's departure sedu.
A call in made Zahra pick him up. Zahra went inside her house and dropped herself on the sofa.
“Halo Res?”
“Halo Ra? How's it? Who do you know who Nesya is?” ask Restu across the phone.
“Yes, he's my brother.” Zahra said lethargic. Zahra got up and walked towards her room.
“Brothers? Koq can?” Tanya Restu was curious. Zahrapun. I don't know if Zahra is starting to believe Restu's words.
“Lo inget right Ra? I like Nesya equally, you have seen Nesya herself is beautiful. I was just competing at that time, I won, I already dapetin Nesya. But Gilang never want to leave Nesya, there is a way to disrupt my date with Nesya. With a heavy heart I let go of Nesya for him. And I remember the same. I'm mean, I want you when I'm hurt. But how else Ra, lo my first love.” Said Restu at length, Zahra was silent to reflect on Restu's words.
“But Gilang does not accept, I have relaxed Nesya for him, and I nyari lo. Gilang just got back from me. I denger Nesya will be married to an Australian guy, so Gilang ngejar lo again. I asked you to think carefully. Gilang never really likes you. He just made you his outlet.” Add Restu.
Zahra was still silently digesting Restu's words.
Really it? Inner Zahra.
“Ra? You're still there, right?” tanya Restu was worried.
“Yes I'm still here Res. Oh yes tomorrow you have a show no?” zahra asked, Restu smiled happily to hear it.
“It seems like there is no deh.” Restu. Zahra said that tomorrow she will tell you when and where they will meet. After that, the connection is closed.
Zahra laid herself on her bed and closed her eyes, she was tired of facing reality today.
***
Gilang was very happy today, he tidied up his shirt and then pressed the bell in front of Zahra's house. Today he will make another surprise for Zahra. Yesterday he failed to express his feelings because of Nesya's arrival, so he will repeat it.
“Call?” reza was shocked when he opened the door.
“Hai bro! Where's ara?” ask Gilang without saying stale. Reza smiled knot.
“Gue smell-smell to date nih.” Reza's words made Gilang chuckle.
“ Tau aja lo, call Aranya donk.” Pinta Gilang, Reza stare at Gilang flat.
“Lo tell me?” reza asked flatly, Gilang looked at him with a frown on his forehead.
“Ayolah Za, I'm not kidding.” Said Gilang.
“Gue is also not kidding. Ask carefully I call Zahra for lo” said Reza is still crossing. Gilang sighed heavily and then tried to smile following the orders of his much-wanted sister-in-law.
“Bang Reza, can you please call Ara not for me?” said Gilang lirih trying as polite as possible.
From behind Reza, Zahra heard Gilang's words. Zahra is out.
“Udah Lang, this is not you really know.” Zahra said in the midst of her silence.
Gilang looked at Zahra a little embarrassed. Yeah, it's not Gilang if you have to behave like that.
“Udah ready Ra? Why not just go out? I'm going to get mixed up with one.” Gilang snorted, staring at Reza who was chuckling in front of him.
“What did you say? Dab-babysond? You tuh cecunguk.” Reza did not accept.
“Huss are you guys? I was like a little kid. Udah ah bang, I go first yes same Gilang.” Pamit Zahra to Reza. Reza nodded.
Gilang and Zahra enter Gilang's car. The car came out of the courtyard of Zahra's house.
