Distrusting

"I'm home." Candra said goodbye. Slowly, Anara was released from her arms.

"Yes, careful!" Anara replied as usual.

The rain was still a little broken when Candra left Anara's room, but no words or words came out of Anara's lips for her lover to stay for a while.

He brought a car. It won't get wet.

After the death of Candra, Anara was again overwhelmed with uncertain feelings. I don't know the feeling that is still angry either his heart that has not been able to believe back.

Threw a flat object from the top of his bed. Seen his finger typed the story and sent it to the person who lately always accommodated his complaints and doubts.

Narrated:

Bryan! Candra was from here.

I'm confused

Why can't I feel like it just yet?

Three messages at once Anara send to her best friend. At least by sharing, he is not confused alone. At least his best friend understood.

The long chat WA is not reciprocated. Once again, Anara decided to send a message. There is no way to tell Hartik because Bryan is more likely to be a bridge between them with Candra.

Narrated:

Yan! Bales! Pengen.

Half an hour passed and the message he sent had not received a response from Bryan.

Certainly busy. I just need to find food.

Anara grabbed the sweater she hung on the doorknob of the closet and quickly went down the stairs. His steps stopped in front of Hartik's room. He slammed the door and shouted out the name of the owner.

"An."

"Let's eat yuk!"

"Not test yet?" Hartik asked because it was from the lower room not visible rain still or has passed.

"Germis. Take umbrellas!"

Hartik went back in and took the wallet and came out again already with his head covering, the mainstay blusukan hijab that lives on.

"It's slippery!" Hartik reminded.

"If it hurts the most, it's a shame." Keep Anara.

"It hurts more to fall in love?"

"Yes, falling in love with the wrong person." Say Anara flat.

"Truly impressive as it is." Sentence ledgean escaped Hartik.

"Hmm."

"Isn't he forgiven?"

"Udah. But the marks are still there."

"May cepet run!"

"What, Tik?"

"That's it, Aaaaan. Relationship time?"

"Hopefully. Amens. Disrupt the thesis."

"Sure, An. I who do not have macem disorder just want to write the thesis back and forth. Especially with that kayak problem. Can go right ahead if I."

"Haha. Lebai! Don't go back to dong's right!" Anara's laughter finally broke.

At a bar they both stopped. Order chicken lalapan plus fried tofu with green sambal that spiciness level just below the spicy of the neighbor's mouth.

"Wrapped, Mas!" Anara Bright.

"Sip mbak." Reply to the young man. Maybe students who have part time work.

After exchanging money for two packets of rice, the two old semester students headed back to the boarding house. The umbrella that was brought was now forcefully folded in a wet state. The rain had just subsided, only the scent was still left there.

"Pik. I'm going straight up."

"Okay, An." Reply Hartik linking thumb and index finger.

Turning the room key, Anara immediately entered after the room door opened perfectly. Unpacked rice packs containing vegetables whose green sambal aroma radiates fragrant to the sense of smell.

Hmm. .. appetizing.

Fill his stomach with a mind that keeps exploring and ends with a glass of water from a mineral bottle. Now Anara put her focus on the phone lying on the bed.

Five messages there. Two from Candra and three from Bryan.

Spark:

An, I seriously want to ask you directly to your parents.

That again. I want you to be sensitive. Love me when I rearrange the heart that you have slammed into a head.

20 Minutes from the first message, Candra sent another message,

Spark:

You're not sure yet? That's why I want to be sure.

Whatever! Not very sensitive. Anara's heart is getting upset, Candra's message ends with a read, with no reply from Anara. It's been exactly the news in the papers. So reading material. Anara's hand turned to Bryan's message.

Bryan:

Sorry just sped bales, An. I finished writing content.

It will be back slowly. Like a broken plate given glue also needs a process of times, although the results will not be perfect. At least almost similar at first, right?

Anara smiled, her best friend is indeed amazing lizard. Not cans.

Narrated:

Cliche pol Bryan😂 but pretty soothing.

Bryan:

Wanna confide in what?

Narrated:

Yes, about your friend. But it's not good through chat.

Bryan:

Yes already. I call?

Narrated:

Meet aja.

Bryan:

Whereabouts?

Bentar deh .. Your boyfriend just slammed hp like. Why anyway?

Narrated:

Labore yes. Now!

Anara immediately changed her clothes to be more worthy to come to the cafe. Without waiting any more night, Anara headed to the cafe located in the Soehat area.

At eight o'clock in the evening, it was on the menu bill ordering brown sugar latte Anara. He chose to sit in a non-smoking area to free his lungs.

Waiting for about 10 minutes, Bryan came with a face that seemed to be looking around. Anara waved to her best friend as a sign of her whereabouts.

"Old?"

"New. 10 minutes maybe."

"You told Candra, right?"

"No." Anara nodded casually.

"Oh my God, it could be a thorn if you know."

"What the hell, Yan. Excessive know."

"Start then! You guys fighting again?"

"No."

"Keep why he .. hmm, I think really hp deh slammed."

"lack of knowledge. He's WA anyway, but I don't do it."

"Oh my goodness, An. Yes, it must be because it's an emotion" Bryan explained solemnly. His hand has already patted his forehead.

It sounded like Anara was breathing rough. Like somehow? If you think about it, it's easy to take Candra back. After all, the man apologized. However, feelings are not that easy, the heart cannot be measured by logic, it is about taste.

"Candra's really cool to fuck me." Said Anara after a long moment of silence.

Bryan looked silent, "good dong. The relationship ends there."

"I'm not sure yet, Yan. My heart is still worried about myself. Not that I'm not sure of him, but my own feelings."

"Why is it so complicated?" Bryan muttered his own face.

"I can't help much, An if it's a feeling problem. You are the control yourself. But ... think carefully about everything!" Said Bryan again.

Anara just nodded in understanding. At least the uneg-uneg in his heart someone heard.

"Maybe I just need some time."

"And I wish Candra patience." Reply Bryan smiled.

Both were out of the cafe when it was almost closed. The streets had begun to be quiet, just as they were on the doorstep, from the other direction walked a white woman with narrow eyes.

"Near." Greet women with stripes shirts.

"Caroline."

The two hugged each other, while Bryan silently stared.

"Yin. Pa news?" Greet Caroline to the ex.

"Lins. Fine."Reply Bryan reaped Caroline's awkward nod.

"You two? Candra?"

"Hmmm, Can-draa. Not coming along." Anara replied, Caroline frowned.

God, I hope he doesn't think macem!

"Yes, I'm first." Caroline passed away from the two.

"I'm really the same ex" Anara said to her motorcycle.

Bryan follows Anara by car until her best friend walks into the boarding yard. Given that the night is lonely, it is impossible to let women go home alone.

Anara waved from the entrance threshold and shook her hands to signal Bryan to leave immediately.

"An, An, it's not getting any more out of me." Lirih Bryan stared at Anara's back.
