Not as Red as Dusk
secret 2



Lala hung up. His face looks gloomy. Something was bothering him. The guy who spoke on the phone earlier. He clearly gave orders to himself.


Esta ran towards Lala. He looks dreamy. Even being called several times did not respond.


Mother: lala!


Spontaneous Lala jump. It was unexpected that Esta would scream so loudly in her ears.


Lala: you're crazy


Esta: wrong myself.I call you silent


Lala: really? oh yeah.Where's your boyfriend? is it true to let you go alone?


Esta: aish. don't overdo it. She also has a job


Lala: really?

Rico is busy treating patients. Starting a few days ago he had already started active in one of the hospitals in town B.


His eyes swept the room. Something is troubling his mind.


Drrr...


Rico: yes?


Edward: is it time for you to come back?


Rico: give me a little more time


Edward: bring the girl if you need to


Rico: no. he's gonna get hurt


Edward: so? you're gonna leave him?


Rico: give me a little more time


Edward: okay


Rico closed the call. Remember dinner with Mr. Pradipta. He's waiting at Esta's house.

He invited Rico to come in. From the inside came the voice of Mr. Pradipta calling Rico's name. Ask him to join immediately.


Pradipta: ah there must be good news, right?


Rico: dad is an expert at this


Pradipta: what do you mean


Is Esta home yet?


Pradipta: of course, he's taking a shower. Come on, let's go straight to the dinner table


The two talked very familiarly. Mr. Pradipta seemed so fond of his future son-in-law. Yep. He knows Rico. Even since he was still sitting on the upper middle bench.


Esta: Rico.m have you come?


Rik: not long ago


Esta: I was wondering what brought dad up. bother here. turns out you


Rico: I just want to talk about Saru something serious


Esta: seriously? do I have to leave you two?


Esta: me?


There was confusion on Esta's face. What's the matter, actually?


Pradipta: so?


Rico: our wedding is next month


Esta: what? what wedding?


Pradipta: your marriage to my dear Rico


Esta: that fast?


Rico: you mind?


Esta: no. uh, I'm just surprised


Rico: okay, I'll take care of everything. You prepare yourself

Lala waved at Esta. His friend looked glum. Maybe I'm thinking of something.


What's wrong with your face?


Esta: what is it


Lala: it looks like a tangled shirt


Esta: haphazard


Lala: what's going on? you don't want to tell a story?


Esta smiled faintly. Both of his eyes were staring mysteriously at Lala. Makes the girl even more curious.


Lala: answer!


I'm getting married to Rico


Lala: uh?


Esta: next month


Lala: what? isn't it too soon?


Esta: why is it. You are not happy?


Lala: of course I'm happy


Esta: good


Lala: then. What about Nick?


Instantly Esta fell silent. Nick's face. His attitude all along.


What would he say after hearing this news? Waitaminute! did I expect anything from that guy? Can't!


Lala: why daydream? my neighbor's chicken died from daydreaming too often.tau?


Esta: but I'm not your neighbor's chicken


Lala: who knows. aren't your traits now similar?


Esta: cih. bored of life apparently


Lala looked up at the expression of her best friend when angry. Even more similar is called adorable. It seems Esta is not talented at that.
