Michelle Laura's



I


never wanted this situation to happen, but I can't seem to


evades. I finally met Michelle, Kevin's fiancee, ex-girlfriend


Dimitri at that time. How can the two men have a relationship with


the same girl at different times? I'm not jealous, just a little upset.


Michelle


much prettier now, when she sits before me, and be damned


Richard was late when he arranged the meeting. I didn't


in need of this meeting too much, this situation is too funny for me to face and


I hate him so much.


“Kita


never met before, Kak,” he said.


“Pardon


me, on your engagement day I was not present. I also seem to be very late


if you say congratulations now, right?” I try to give you a smile


best him.


Honestly,


I'm not very familiar with other women. My nature is very contradictory


with most women, so I feel a little lame when talking to


other women, except Nabila. If women spend most of their time


by shopping or hanging out in a cafe, I prefer to work,


read a book, or sleep.


Seems


Michelle is also a woman, but she's too young to be in


call a woman, maybe a girl.


Michelle


give her smile to me. I don't feel jealous, if only my face was like that,


I thought there would be a lot of men approaching me. You know, his face is very


beautiful, it seems like God was happy when he created himself.


“Tak


problems, Brother. Kevin often told Liliana, I was curious to want to


meet directly.”


Thought


his relationship with Kevin wasn't that close, and offering this meeting was


Richard, his own brother. Why are you talking about Kevin? “Yes, he has


like a sister to me. What do you think of Kevin?”


“We


old friend actually, I was also shocked when Papa suggested this engagement.”


I


have often met many clients with a variety of traits and their behavior. Slightly


many I can understand how their nature is in just one look,


I mean, I watch them sometimes, so I can tell what they are


want it indirectly. I always have a bad feeling when faced with


with a new woman, whoever it is.


Forgive


this is my bad attitude, but that one trait I can't control. Although I


I've tried to change, but I'm still not going to do it


cognizant.  The point is, I feel that attitude in


show Michelle this time is so unnatural. It was like forcing that smile,


even his laughter was very discordant.


I


just nodding at all his words. I don't want to try to


be nice to her, I'll just be polite to her. In no way


directly, I'll deal with him. Through Kevin, Richard, or


Dimitris.


“Nby the way,


What does your brother have to do with Richard?” ask again.


Girl


it calls its Brother no frills ‘Kak’, it sounds very rude


to me. Even Kevin called me Brother, he still called Dimitri by name


also, anyway. I looked at him surprised.


“Ah, ,


we live abroad too often, so call ‘Kakak’ never


kummention. Richard doesn't mind about that either.” He showed a smile


any more.


What


not tired of smiling all the time? “We're just friends. Richard was friends


with my best friend's girlfriend.”


“But


you guys look great, I don't mind having a sister-in-law like Kak


Lili.”


Seems


I'm the one who objected. Is marriage that easy? If it was easy, then I


should be married by now, and live happily with my little family. Noth


even have an affair with


own friend.


“Sorry


I'm late, there's an operation that can't be left.”


Richard


suddenly appeared and came straight to our table. I'm just smiling


understand him, but in my heart I want to curse this man.


“Tak


problem, chat with Kak Lili fun, surely my beloved brother does not spare this beautiful woman.”


Michelle


talking cheerfully as if we were indeed spending time cheerfully. Possibly


this girl feels that way, but I don't. My mood's still getting worse, and


meeting this girl makes me even more sick.


Usually


when I met Richard I was able to smile, but the mystery was


having me stop feeling that way again. What I need right now is


they don't cover anything from me anymore.


**


I


back to the office in an increasingly gloomy atmosphere. Lunch, which was more


dominated by Michelle. It looks like the fried rice I ate just now didn't


well-digested in my stomach because of the resentful feelings that dominated me. I


I don't understand why I'm like this myself, maybe I'm in a condition


PMS. Only that makes the most sense, my stomach has also been very wrapped around since.


I


sitting on the sofa for this guest, while massaging my temples that feel


this very sick. There's still one more meeting I have to attend, and my condition


it was impossible to attend the meeting. I bought my bag for


looking mobile. The lunch hour is not over, and Eka is definitely still in


outside for lunch, or in the cafeteria.


“Eka, ,


please withdraw from the meeting this afternoon. I'm not feeling well and I probably will


straight home. Cancel all schedules this afternoon.”


Subsequent to


hearing Eka's reply across the street, I immediately hung up the phone. I


lying down on the sofa, I was no longer strong enough to walk


lobby to go home. I just need to lie down for a while to recover


my energy.


Else


the next time I see Michelle again, I want to ask her about everything that's


it happened in his past. I was so stressed thinking about it, and I


I'm sure that's what's causing me this way, too.


**


I


I don't know how long I've been asleep on this couch, but it feels like my back is so


be ill. With great difficulty I got up, my room was very dark, and in


it must be dark outside too. I took my phone lying on


table, five thirty. It turns out I slept for quite a while too, not only


enough, that's more than enough.


Tak


there's an inbound message or a phone call from anyone, what that means Dimitri and Kevin


not looking for me at all? Why does that sound so sad? Because I didn't


have anyone else to look for me other than those two men.


Seems


there's no one on this floor anymore, well not a job today anyway


too many. Eka must have gone home first, she was very disciplined, but


if there is something to do, he will be happy overtime. I held a very disturbing heels in


my feet, and also my bag, there's nothing else to do and I can


straight home.


My hand


I'll open the door when I hear the chat outside my door.


“Why


you told Lili about Michelle?” ask that voice. I guess that's


Dimitri and Kevin, I've been very sorry for the voices of those two people. Who else


who would talk about Michelle if it wasn't the two of them?


“Kak


Lili should know, until when will you hide it?”


“I


don't know what the motive is behind your engagement, but I don't want Lili involved


So then


true to my opinion, Michelle is beautiful, but her nature is not as beautiful


her face. Then what does this have to do with me? I know eavesdropping is not a good thing, though,


but I overheard this by accident. If it wasn't for this accident, I wouldn't


will know anything, so just leave it like this.


“Then


once determined, you will date Kak Lili to break your friendship. At least


if you don't want to protect Lili, you can't hurt her. All


it's also because of your selfishness, Dimitri.”


What


Michelle is that crazy? What can the girl do? I could


hearing the desperate cries of Dimitri. So this is the problem that made him change


and act weird. Why should there be me between their complicated relationships. What is Michelle


actually some kind of gangster?


Seems


they're still outside, I haven't heard the sound of their footsteps. “I


it would really kill you if anything happened to Lili's sister, Dimitri.”


I


pecking behind the door, do I have to go out and act like I always do,


or should I wait until both of them are gone? I'm actually going with


it was nice to choose the second option, but I was also curious about the look on the face


I'll show Dimitri if I see me still in the office.


So, uh,


after sighing a few times I opened the door, I had already prepared the poker face that I was about to show to


Dimitris. I often watch dramas, so it seems like I can mimic acting


artist there.


“Dimitri!”


I screamed, pretending to be shocked. I hope my face is enough to make him sure


if I'm really surprised.


Dimitri


looking at me, his face was completely shocked. I've never seen this expression


before, so he really didn't expect me to be here.


“Compression


you've come home, Eka says you're not feeling well.”


I


I was hoping Dimitri would be worried when I saw me in the office, or


at least he called me when I was sleeping. My expectations are too high, right? Kevin


didn't even do the same thing, did Michelle really make them


confusion like this?


“Yes,


I fell asleep apparently. What are you doing here?” my many. Still maintaining a poker face that hopefully not too


disappointingly.


“I


thought Eka was still here, I was gonna ask for her file.”


I


just nod. “I go first with it.”


“Li..,”


Dimitri blocked my arm, and I turned to look at him. I always showed


this face was in front of the client, but when showing this face to Dimitri, it was,


I really want to run away from here. “I'll drive home.”


Noth


questions, statements as usual. Only that nature does not change from him,


besides that he changed, otherwise it was just his pretense. I wanted to


I shook my head, but I nodded in response. Usually not either


need answers.


Subsequent


I just walked after him to the basement. He said nothing, not even with me. I'm even very confused


what to behave like. Why did the situation change so quickly? Yesterday though


we still enjoy our togetherness.


Dimitri


not immediately take me home, he took me to one of the tent stalls


in line with my apartment. It's dinner time, so it's only natural that he


brought me here, but unfortunately I have absolutely no appetite for


the meal. I just want to go back to sleep, or go back to taking my sleeping pills


could sleep.


Our


sitting in the only seat that was empty, in hours like this must be very


many people stopped by for dinner, and this tent stall also


the most famous among the others.


“I


no appetite, Al. You are the one who ate.” I pushed the plate that just


presented by the salespeople at our table.


“You


you said yourself that if you're not feeling well, you should eat, Li. You don't want to be in


force it my way, right?”


I


looking at her flatly, her face hardened as if I had made a mistake. Me too


never asked him to eat here, I just wanted to go home, if he


understand.


“I


eat when I want, not because of your decision. I'm not asking you to either


dinner first, Al.”


“Ada


what's with you?”


I


I wanted to ask him the same question, but it wasn't


come back to him. Ends only I keep in my heart, I'll take it out


later.


“Maybe


because of PMS, ignore it. I'm not appetite anymore.” I spread my eyes


anywhere you don't look at his face.


“Kita


go home if that is. Bang out! Can you please pack this food?”


I


looking at him who was calling the brothers who delivered the food earlier. I knew


he can not eat alone, he will choose to hold hunger on appeal


must eat alone. At least that habit hasn't changed from him.


Our


driving back to the apartment, just like before, we both did not


speakinthe least. This is our silent journey. Lucky I have


the reason PMS was if he was going to ask me about my attitude towards him just now.


Tak


thirty minutes, and we've reached my apartment building. He didn't


take me to the basement. That means


he's not staying. I don't want him to stay at the moment either, but


the habits that we have done so often seem to get me used to it. Idiotically


once, right? Is this part of falling in love?


“You


you have a problem?” my many.


Silent.


Seems


he does not want me. “Find your woman, so that your face does not tangle


again,” my word again.


I


deciding to come out, he would definitely not answer me. I'm the only one


too curious about everything.


“Please


don't go near the guy again,” he said.


“I


told you I'd do it if you gave me a reason.” I haven't


stared at him. I'm still holding the door handle


the car, really preparing to get off.


“So


my girlfriend.”


Conversation


they came back to my head this afternoon. Kevin gave her the option to scout me


or cut off our friendship, and it looks like this guy chose to


courting me. I don't know what that phrase means, which is obviously not a thing


the good.


“I


down.” I opened the car door, but Dimitri forced me in by pulling my hand.


“You're thinking a lot, calm your mind and talk to me


again,” I said with a flat face.


“I


serious about my words, Li.” Dimitri looked at me. Those jet black eyes


show seriousness there, but I don't want to see it, I


they really don't want to get into their problems.


“Kita


best friend, and will forever be, Dimitri.”
