Falling in Love with Ala Kennan



Two weeks later.


Athreya has been brought back to Malang City. Although his condition had not fully recovered, but he was able to move as usual. Starting next week, he'll be coming with Reyvan to the office. Although it can not help much, but at least there are activities to fill free time because now it is not in college. Athreya felt bored if every day stay at home.


On the other hand, Kaivan was also working as usual. Lately there are so many weddings, so the job at Beauty Wedding Organizer is also solid. However, none of them failed. Each time an order, never cancel unilaterally. That is, among many clients there is no such thing as a null and void marriage. Perhaps, it was only Kaivan who felt that.


This morning, Kaivan and his family were eating breakfast. In addition to the clanking of spoons, occasionally the conversation of those who become voice actors.


While they were still busy enjoying the dishes, suddenly the bell rang. Turns out, Kennan's coming. The man's appearance was a little different than usual. Curtains hairstyles are usually jet black, now dyed chestnut brown. Ordinary ears are clean, now the next one is decorated with silver earrings. Pun with neck, there hang gold necklace—entah original or imitation. In his hand anyway, not a circular bracelet anymore, but a black bracelet that is somehow made of. His fashion style has also changed. He who used to wear long jeans and a short—rapi shirt, now wears a collarless sweatshirt combined with torn long jeans. According to Kaivan, the appearance of Kennan is not much different from teenagers who just passed puberty.


"What guests are you, Ken?" Kaivan reprimanded while looking at Kennan's appearance.


"Beauty, right?" Kennan smiles.


"The ABG kayak is labile" Kaivan sneered.


Kennan indifferently, let Kaivan comment on what, the important thing is that he is comfortable with his new appearance. Kennan greeted Darren and Kirana, then sat down to join them. However, not for long, because there was already work waiting for him and Kaivan.


Soon, Kaivan and Kennan were already in the courtyard. Without further ado, Kennan thrust his car keys into Kaivan.


"You're the one who drives" said Kennan.


"Kok me?" Kaivan protest.


"I'm tired again."


Half believed half did not, but Kaivan bred Kennan's request. He entered the yellow-lit Honda Brio which only last week legitimately belonged to Kennan. Kaivan sat in front of the wheel and started to turn it on. Kennan was sitting next to Kaivan. His hand started playing the phone and his lips continued to smile.


Kaivan knows his best friend is in love. He guessed, while alone in Bandung Kennan met someone special. The reason, Kennan's attitude changed since completing the work there.


"The person who is truly in love will accept our situation, not turn us into what he wants" Kaivan said. I don't know, he's less comfortable seeing Kennan change his appearance, which is believed to be due to a woman.


"Who is also in love" Kennan said without turning his head.


"Yesterday can still lie. But now, the appearance changed, impossible without reason. It must be because of a creature called wa-ni-ta." Kaivan turned a glance, then refocused on the steering wheel.


Beside him, Kennan exhaled a rough breath. Then, turn off the phone and stare at Kaivan long enough.


"Love needs a fight, Kai. Just changing the appearance, I don't think it's worth taking into account" Kennan said.


"You mean?"


"Everyone has a different appearance, which is sometimes the hallmark of that person. Not infrequently, someone idolizes the appearance of others and then imitates it. They have standards like A, B, or C. If you can guess, the girl you love must also have that benchmark. He's turning you into someone idolized. Is that what you mean by struggle?" kaivan replied at length.


Kennan remained silent.


"Be yourself even if you are hated. It is better than being loved as someone else. You don't want to, do you, forever be the shadow of people?" Kaivan's words sounded serious.


Years together, only this time Kaivan sees Kennan falling in love. Actually, he's happy too. However, one thing that is very unfortunate, Kennan became a love slave and did anything for the girl. Kaivan was very curious, as to what exactly made Kennan bend his knees.


"I've been in love, and I've fought for love. I'm just a photographer, desperate to build a restaurant to increase income. But, it was not Luna's will, but my own. I do it to be self-assured, to be responsible if I become a husband. If I'm honest, the feelings for Luna were still there when I ended the relationship. But I realized, the relationship we had was no longer a sincere love. So, I don't want to hold on. Like you said, don't be stupid for love." Kaivan spoke again because Kennan was still silent.


"Do you understand what you mean, Kai, but .. I really love him. He's got a tough side I can't explain to you. So, for a while I was willing to be someone else." Kennan smiled as he patted Kaivan on the shoulder. "Just pray that one day I can get his love as myself" he continued.


Kaivan let out a long breath, "I was curious, how great the girl was to the extent that a cold guy like you could submit was made."


"He's very good. In fact, you won't even struggle if you're dealing with him."


"I'm not that kind of guy." Kaivan answered quickly.


"For this time .. sorry, Kai, I'm not sure."


Kaivan immediately turned his head and looked at Kennan. However, being stared at just a big smile, making Kaivan more curious about the figure of the girl in question.
