Not the Ex-Friend

Chapter 52 Dinner

At 6:50 all gathered at the dinner table. Bianca sat beside Diana and mama Angela while opposite her were Dimas, Revan, Emilia and Devano.

“Loh Arini where dear ?” Papa Harry who just realized Arini's absence asked Angela's mother.

“So he asked the driver to pick him up while you were in the workspace.”

Papa Harry was just a beard and invited everyone there to start dinner.

The atmosphere looks awkward and uncomfortable. Mama Angela and Diana who were still upset by Devano's behavior put on a hostile face. Occasionally Revan and Dimas try to open a conversation to melt the atmosphere but Diana and mama Angela are more silent.

“Honey, I want that one.” Emilia who had been acting spoiled several times asked Devano who served her to get food.

Emilia's behavior makes Angela and Diana's mother increasingly upset and want dinner to end soon.

“You should try this one,” Devano said in an awkward manner and picked up the beef side dish that was in one of the bowls.

“Taste mama is always the most delicious and ngangenin.” Devano tries to open a conversation with Angela's mother. The mother who sat facing him. Angela's mother's face is still surly, making Devano's mood unpleasant

“Big money, ma. Mama is always top about cooking.” Devano gave a thumbs up and went back to enjoying the food well.

“You sure it's really good ?” mama Angela asked with a flat face and a slightly mocking tone.

“Truly ma,” Devano nodded surely.

Yes ! Finally mama wants to open her voice too, Devano inner.

“That's Bianca cuisine,” replied mama Angela relaxed.

Uhhuukkk.. uhhhuukkk. Papa Harry who was near Devano immediately gave a glass of water. The middle-aged man chuckled at the Interaction of his wife and child.

“Be careful so it is difficult to move on if you like food made by Bianca.” Diana's ejek in a tinge.

Devano who had regained his composure with a reddened face felt again a misstep. Want to praise his favorite woman so as not to sulk again even get checkmate from the mother and her sister.

“Darling, you're okay ?” Emilia rubbed Devano's back, which made the boy even more misbehaved.

Emilia was able to look at the figure of Bianca sitting opposite to him. He caught something between the girl and Devano.

Emilia who actually has a sense with Devano sees Bianca as his toughest rival. When Devano invited him to pretend to be a girlfriend, his heart was happy not to play because Emilia had a crush on Devano but found it difficult to approach the guy because of Devano's rigid and cold attitude towards women.

Like a tit for tat, Emilia uses Devano's request to show her feelings. While meeting Arini who is the target of Devano's pretend girlfriend game, Emilia sees that Arini is just an abege child who is obsessed with Devano, not in love with him. Models like Arini are very easily shifted by Emilia. With a short talk full of dramatization and provocation, this afternoon alone Emilia was able to make Arini upset half to death and chose to go home instead of going to dinner.

Devano stretched his body so that Emilia's hand still attached to his back was released. But unfortunately the hand now moved to Devano's thigh made the guy surprised.

“Sorry I said back a minute.” Devano got up and left the dining table.

The bathroom is not the goal. But Devano went in there and sat on the closed toilet. She stroked her own chest and felt Emilia's attitude getting more and more over her.

At the beginning of the deal, Emilia acted like a boyfriend just in front of Arini. Beyond that Devano has asked him to behave like a friend like their relationship during college in America. But it looks like Emilia is even becoming a savage.

While at the dinner table, Emilia became misbehaved and no longer enjoyed her food. As Devano left the dining table, Angela and Diana's mama immediately gave a sharp and unfriendly look.

Watch out for you ! Just see if Devano has become my lover even my husband. You think it's impossible for me to get Devano. Inner Emilia with an irritated heart

Not long after Devano returned to the dining table and had not had time to sit back, Angela's mother immediately woke up.

“Honey,” papa Harry touching fingers mama Angela.

“I'm done baby,” mama Angela smiled faintly at her beloved husband.

Papa Harry glanced at Angela's mama's dinner plate which turned out to be clean. Papa Harry blinked one eye to make mama Angela's mood better, but only responded with a faint smile.

Diana, who also lost her appetite, woke up. Bianca who saw the two women flanking her wake up finally woke up too.

Devano who had wanted to sit back finally just stood next to his chair and looked at the departure of mama Angela, Diana and Bianca with a chaotic feeling.

Finally the very uncomfortable dinner ended. Papa Harry and mama Angela continue the conversation in the living room while watching TV while eating fruit.

Diana, who is still in jutek mode, is immediately invited to the backyard by Revan, while Devano invites Emilia to talk on the front porch. Originally Devano wanted to take Emilia to the backyard, but seeing Diana and Revan already walking there, Devano undo his intentions.

“Diana dear, don't keep jutek.” Revan grabbed the hand of Diana who was already sitting next to him in the gazebo near the fish pond.

“Mebel me with Brother Devano. Can choose a girlfriend like that.” Tightly while snatching.

Revan laughed and ruffled Diana's hair.

“Don't get caught, Devano isn't really dating the same as bule so-jadian.”

“Tadi fit in papa Harry's workspace, Devano story that Emilia was entrusted by her brother to be invited back sekai to Jakarta. Later there is a parent's messenger pick up and bring home to Surabaya.”

“But the behavior is more, already like a real girlfriend.” Diana pursed her lips.

Seeing that Revan got even more anxious and kissed Diana's cheek. The girl was surprised and immediately glared.

“Enak aja play kiss-kiss do not permisi”

“Ending your mouth that cenberut only even make you anxious.” Revan pinched both of Diana's cheeks slowly.

“Iiihhh added kesel deh,” Diana brushed off Revan's hand that was answered with laughter.

“You should trust Devano. We follow what Devano's plan is. Bianca's equal focus let us continue to support her to get the honesty of Devano.”

Revan stopped his laughter and said softly as he stroked Diana's shoulder-length hair.

“Yakin ?” Diana looked at her heart with a doubtful face.

“Iya sure ! Devano is no longer an abege. Starting Monday he has started his duties in the company to be the successor to papa Harry.”

“May they be a match yes.” Diana slid her head on Revan's shoulder while embracing his arm.

“Sit !” devano's stern voice followed by a sharp gaze told Emilian to sit on the wooden bench on the front porch.

“You want to do it here ? Many mosquitoes know !” Emilia nagged while patting here and there repelling mosquitoes.

The behavior of this spoiled girl is always annoying. If not for Erwin who asked for help from him, it feels like Devano is very lazy to be Emilia's travel companion. And stupidly he even invited this annoying girl to play a drama to get rid of Arini who did not stop bothering him during Devano college in America. Not only by phone or messages Arini often terrorizes Devano, even Arya's sister was desperate to come to America alone and tau-tau appeared in Devano's apartment !

“Please take care of your behavior !” Devano. “Deal we pretended to date only in front of Arini.”

“I don't want to just pretend to date doang.”

Emilia returned Devano's gaze while twitching flirtatiously.

Emilia's attitude made Devano snort angrily and shifted his gaze in the other direction.

“Can't ! I don't want to date you.” Devano again emphasized his attitude.

“Because Bianca ?” Emilia stood up and brought her face closer to Devano's.

Devano who was surprised to see the behavior of Emilia reflex rewind his body a few steps.

“Do not take others with you ! We're just pretending to be dating and our deal ends this way too.”

“Nmobile !” Emilia.

“Serah !”

“Devano !” Emilia held Devano's arm that passed through her towards the entrance.

“I love you and want to be your real girlfriend.” Emilia's face turned clear.

Devano took a deep breath and released Emilia's hand. He returned Emilia's gaze. Knowing this spoiled and aggressive girl makes Devano also memorized by the behavior of Emilia who often dramatize the atmosphere. Several times Devano saw that Erwin was consumed with the attitude of Emilia who was really a queen drama. Emtah because Erwin so spoiled his sister or indeed consumed with the attitude of Emilia.

“Our relationship can only be limited to friends.”

Devano continued his steps and ignoring Emilia made the gaids frown.

“Devano, I will make you love me and will not be able to get away from me !” Shouted Emilia.

Devano stopped right at the door. One hand remained on the door handle that was already open. He turned his head to look at Emilia who had put on a sad look again.

“Don't be an obsessed human being. My dad already knows that we're just pretending because of Arini. I have agreed to accept my parents' matchmaking.”

Marriage ? Batim Emilia

“You lied !”

“That's your business to believe or not.”

Devano continued his steps and entered the house without closing the door.

Emilia stomped her feet against the floor while nagging.

“What other matchmaking is it ? It's not that Devano told himself that his match with Arini had been canceled but Arini refused. Who else is Devano ?” Emilia spoke to herself.
