"Hhhhhh!" Bella threw her original bag and then lay as she pleased on her beloved soft bed.
He looked up, contemplated, silent at the thought of something. The phone then opens an old gallery of photos with Jimmy.
"Hem!" Bella smiled and wiped her tears.
"Ah, I honestly miss you Jim. You how are you? The last time you made me sick was really sick." Bella sucked her snot down.
He took a tissue and wiped his tears and snot. " Hum!" A familiar sound with relief in the nose. " Am I so ugly, huh? until you always reject me?"
Bella recalls how it used to be when they were little together, how Jimmy, who always protected her, kept her from other children who mocked her, said that Bella was ugly and fat.
"Just try if you weren't that good. I'm not gonna fall in love with you stupid!!" Bella cusses at the picture of Jimmy smiling.
"Don't be so sweet!!" His cry cussed at the innocent image.
"Bell!! Bella!!"Exclaimed mother Ria who ran in a hurry to her room still with a spatula and apron attached to her body.
"What's wrong?" Again, she followed her worries.
"It's okay, Bun!! just watching the drama!!" The leg berkilah, just embarrassed if caught crying over a figure that sucks with a handsome face.
"Ah, what do you think?" Mumbled Bunda Winda who then went and continued his activities cooking dinner.
...🌿🌿🌻🌿🌿...
At the dining table.
"How's college?" Fauzi's father asked with attention to his daughter's gloomy face.
"Okay Dad, everything's fine." Replied Bella who gave her own relief for the father.
"Oh yes Bell, I'll finish eating. You delivered this cake to the Holy Mother, huh? He wanted a layer cake made by Mother, and it just happened to be ripe." Mother Ria ruled.
Bella just nodded slowly and then continued eating. There was no conversation a moment later, only the sound of dancing spoons and forks created a soft clanking sound on the dining table.
"Bell, Later if you visit the Holy Mother's house, do not forget to look at Jimmy yes." Fauzi's Father's Message.
Bella stopped eating and glanced at her father, "Yes Well." The answer is softly Solah hit the situation.
He had heard that Jimmy had been back to his parents for three days. Jimmy, who had been out of town since college, was living in an apartment, had to go back to his big house until he recovered.
Actually, Bella was very eager to greet and meet her best friend. But, there is a sense of obstruction. The pain that Jimmy last took before he left.
The day Jimmy had a crush on his new girlfriend, right after Bella had told him how she felt.
In this case, Bella is more inclined to selfishness.
He doesn't want Jimmy to be with another woman and there's no leeway even though he knows he has no right to forbid a Jimmy from dating.
"Here, give it later." The holy mother who is also ready." Bella frowned in wonder. If the mother is also ready, then why should she give?
"Mother coming?" Ask.
"Yes dong must be Mommy and Dad join all the play and look Jimmy. I miss Daddy's son." Fauzi's father overestimated Jimmy's position in his heart. That is, more than just a neighbor's child.
"Father misses the father's son.." Bella snickered her mouth and mimicked the father's speech by saying that she disagreed with his father's opinion.
"Father's son is me, not Jimmy!!" Ketus Bella spoke who then rolled her eyes lazily.
"Yes, you're all father's children." Said Fauzi's father who then rubbed Bella's head.
The holy mother chuckled little. " You guys, let's go! I'll hunt you tonight." He said while laughing.
"Jimmy son of Father, brother Rama son of Father. I'm a child!!" Bella rattled and stomped her feet and walked ahead of her parents.
Bella prepared her courage. He took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly. There is a strange sense when this is the first time after 6 months they have never met at all yes it is a sense of awkwardness not another taste.
After knocking on the door then they are welcome to enter and get a warm welcome from the holy Mother.
"Oh my mother's son is coming!!" welcome the Holy Mother enthusiastically accompanied by a sweet smile and do not forget she always hugged Bella and kissed the two cheeks of Bella.
"How are you happy, right? now you have parents here." Father Fauzi's chirps that make Bella immediately squinted her eyes do not like.
"Ep... Si, how about we barter. Bella stay here and Rama come with you." Said Bunda Winda as good as his heart.
Main barter alone, is that his son's stuff?
Bella was upset she could only shut up and pursed her lips. Manyun.
"Rather than barter, it's good to make a match." Dandi's father's chirps who had just been a lady-in-waiting and joined in the living room.
They all fell silent and focused on Dandi's father. "Huhahah! You're good at kidding! We've talked about this before, haven't we?" Father Fauzi said.
"There is no matchmaking. Let our children meet their respective partners, unless indeed our children match by themselves. Her impression again and then chuckled and patted twice on Dad's shoulder as an emphasis to keep things going well.
"Yes, I'm just kidding." His mouth then nodded in understanding.
Now Bella understands why Jimmy always refuses. Indeed he does not lie, a friendship that is well established is more panting than a relationship of romance.
"Eh, don't you miss Jimmy?" Holy Mother chirps with her hands pointing at Jimmy's room.
Bella blushed and smiled shyly. "Ah, Mommy, Jimmy is sick so let him rest." Her eagle is not strong hearted if you have to meet directly with the friend he loves.
"There, meet him son! He's been asking you questions since his arrival the other day." Said Dandi's Dad.
"Yes, who knows he's sick from being away from you too long." Cetus the holy Mother who made Bella look at him in disbelief if the Mother is so bluntly like this.
Oh blimey!! Bella was too embarrassed to admit this. His parents were very outspoken and shameless. While Jimmy's parents still maintain their elegance even in a joking fashion. Bella looked down embarrassed and smiled knotingly looking at Father and Mother Jimmy.
"Bun, I'll go upstairs first, okay?" Take it politely.
"Oh yes, please!" They gladly accepted.
Bella starts climbing the stairs to Jimmy's room. For a moment he hesitated, took a deep breath and slowly tried to expel any awkwardness.
Silent, silent, there was no sound but her footsteps and she reached out her hand to knock on Jimmy's bedroom door.
GECK!
GECK!
GECK!
"Jim, it's Bella. Can I come in?"
There was no answer but the door opened wide with a figure that Bella had not seen for a long time.
"I miss!!" Spoiled talk. And....
