The Art Of Badminton

Farewell

The official Indonesia Open Super 1000 tournament has ended. Although still leaving tightness in Rey's chest, but this is a very great experience for him.

There is so much to learn from all these games.

Indonesia ended up being the overall champion with one win and one runner up.

Nay, Rey, Grandpa and all the spectators flocked out of the stadium. Some spectators seemed to buy trinkets including jerseys because there were so many outlets that gave big discounts at the end of the tournament.

"Day !" Grandpa suddenly called out. Nay turned his gaze towards Grandpa.

Grandpa told him to come closer and Nay walked straight towards him.

" Thank you for being Rey's talkative. He must be happy to be able to discuss about badminton." Grandpa smiled at Nay. Nay could only smile in embarrassment.

"Is that so, Rey ?" Grandpa glanced at Rey while moving his lips.

Rey looked surprised and excited. His cheeks were flushed with embarrassment.

"Based on a stupid boy !" Grandpa grumbled and was greeted with a small laugh from Nay.

"Oh yeah, your house where's Nay? let Grandpa anter go home. In the past Grandpa often maen in Jakarta, so maybe still paving the way." Grandpa chuckles at the memory of the past.

"No need. I don't want to trouble. You only have to go to the busway stop up there, and just take a ride once." Nay tried to subtly reject Grandpa.

"Grandpa is serious, not a lie !"

"I know!" Nay feels bad. "I really don't want to bother, after all, it's late afternoon, Grandpa and Rey will be late on the road."

"Okay, all right, that's it." Grandapa, Rey and Nay both walked forward to get out of the stadium.

Rey said nothing at all because she was embarrassed and awkward.

They had already arrived at the parking lot where Grandpa's car was stored.

Grandpa first climbed into the driver's seat after saying goodbye to Nay. Now outside the car there is only Rey and Nay who look awkward.

"Emmm.." Nay mendehem in an awkward atmosphere.

Rey was still silent, and her eyes seemed to be swirling around. He couldn't look Nay in the eye for being too embarrassed.

Nay is forced to reopen the conversation because Rey just fell silent.

"OK Rey, let's have a good tournament later. Be careful on the road!"

Rey was silent. "Okay thanks!" Rey finally opened her mouth after a long silence.

The mood returned awkward. The two of them just stood in silence. In the end, Nay says goodbye to Rey because there is nothing more they have to talk about.

Nay finally leaves from Rey's presence. At a time like this, Rey could look at him freely.

Rey got into the car and sat still in silence like something was wrong.

"We're leaving now Rey ?" Ask Grandpa.

"Hmmm..." Rey simply replied to him with a mutter.

"Are you sure we're leaving now?"

"Yes.." Rey answered briefly.

"Yakiiinnn?" Grandpa tried to convince once again.

This time Rey did not answer. He looked at Grandpa with a confused look.

"Go now or not at all !" Grandpa seemed to be getting upset.

Rey still did not react.

"Okay, if that's your decision." Grandpa started the car and was ready to leave.

Rey opened the car door and jumped while running. He didn't know what pushed him until it got like this.

"Based on stupid boyhh !" Grandpa muttered with a smile looking at his beloved grandson.

Seen from the windshield, Rey ran towards Nay and appeared to Rey speak something even though it seemed clumsy and awkward. Nay' was shocked and did not expect Rey to come back and talk to him.

Grandpa just smiled to himself looking at the behavior of the two teenagers.

*

Rey got back in the car. His face looks red. Grandpa tried to make fun of her by constantly staring at Rey's face.

Rey knew what Grandpa was doing to her. He turned his face to the car window, buried his face so that the grandfather could not see his face at this time.

Grandpa laughed heartily at his granddaughter's behavior.

Along the way the unceasing Grandpa teases Rey who is meticulously greeted by her granddaughter.

Along the way Rey recalls the moment she talked to Nay. Rey pretended to sleep when she could not sleep at all.

"I'm sure you can Rey ! and we'll definitely meet again."

Rey in the rain with a dark atmosphere, he repeated in his brain what Nay said earlier. His words were like a song that was very tasty lyrics and wanted to always be heard repeatedly without getting bored in the least.
