The Left Behind Story
06 ~ Take Home
Unbeknownst to the Goddess, Bang Reja who is their senior secretly put the same heart of the Goddess but unfortunately, Eva has intercepted her senior feelings by saying if Dewi already has a lover. “Sorry, late! Last meal finished quiz.” Eva said as soon as she arrived at the HMJ room which is a gathering place for senior English majors.
“How's the quiz?”
“Currently, Bang. Only lost two points to the Goddess. Answer dia 100 % true all.”
“Kok can?” Eva raised her shoulders.
“Makasih Abang has helped give grating about yes! The same quiz Mr. Maimun cannot be predicted.”
“Sama-sama. We'll walk sometime, will?”
“In order?”
“Ya street only. I want to know you further.”
Eva smiled then nodded, “Bby. Later call me. But you sure there is no more same taste Goddess?”
“After hearing your story, Brother became lazy. It turns out that it is true that appearance does not reflect personality.”
“Yups!”
And behind Dewi, Eva also ugly him to no wonder in the past, Dewi never establish a relationship with a senior that he likes or likes. In the past, the Goddess did not feel awkward with it all even when the originally friendly senior with her suddenly turned flat as if unfamiliar.
The Goddess seemed to reassemble the puzzle of her life with one incident at a time in the past. Unbeknownst to her friends, Dewi comes to Bang Reja in the HMJ room. Reja is a well-known senior among English students. Not only was he smart, he was also handsome and gentle and had a sweet smile.
“Can we talk to you for a minute?” ask the Goddess directly. Reja looked at each of her friends.
“What's up? We'll talk here.”
“Alright if it wants Brother. I just want to know what Eva told you about me?”
Gleg... Reja glanced at her friends, “Solve elsewhere, Ja!” said Iskandar as chairman of HMJ.
“Ikut Brother!” The goddess followed Reja out of the HMJ room towards the back of the canteen. Two glasses of cold tea came after Reja ordered for them. “What do you mean ask that?” ask Reja.
“I just want to know why Brother changed lately? My brother used to smile when he met me but lately he's been looking at me like a disgusting girl. Am I wrong what is wrong with Brother?”
Dewi began to feel awkward with the change in attitude of her senior after a few weeks ago. Initially Dewi thought that if Reja was a lot of tasks and was tired again but after knowing that Reja contacted Eva then the instinct of Dewi immediately worked. Previously, the relationship of Reja and Dewi was familiar especially after Dewi with Ayi and Rani managed to become the winner of the debate but gradually the relationship between the two became distant.
“You have a boyfriend so Brother doesn't want to bother you.”
“What's the problem? Boyfriend, girlfriend, friend. We're friends and I think of Brother as a friend and a senior then where's the problem?”
“Abang likes you at first but after knowing you have a boyfriend, Brother so want to keep your distance. That's it!”
“That's it? Or is there anything else you heard?”
“Nothing!”
“Then I do! Does that mean you want to keep your distance? It’s ok! I don't have a problem with that. Hopefully your decision is right because regret always comes too late.”
“What do you mean?”
“Nothing! Bye!” The goddess left Reja with an ambiguous sentence that made Reja curious.
The days continued and the relationship of Dewi with Fadil was established smoothly by phone or message without Eva's knowledge. If Dewi cornered Eva by secretly dealing with Fadil from replying messages to talking through the phone line. Eva also did the same on without the Goddess knowing. Eva's incitement through Reja manages to spread to her fellow seniors. Moreover, the value of the Goddess continued to surge at the top rank in all the courses. Goddess who had never been above Eva now always get the highest rating to make the content continues to spread among English students.
“Cannot be! Do you believe in such cheap gossip?” rani asks Ayi and some friends who are gathering at Ayi's boarding house. While the Goddess went somewhere.
“No smoke if no fire, Yi. I heard this from the seniors and other leting children.” Liyanti. Liyanti does know many students from various units so it is not surprising if the gossip reaches her ears.
“But we've been friends with him not just yesterday. We also know she has a boyfriend. It is very unlikely if Dewi so cheating on the lecturer. I can't believe this.” Rani still insisted on her opinion.
“Do you not realize that he is often lost at this time. He always disappears without us knowing.” Sahut Ayi's.
“Si Eva is there! He was on the same road Bang Reja. Hear-heard they've started the approach.” Sahut Liyanti made all her friends surprised.
“Eva equals Bang Reja? Wow, warm gossip again!” cursed Aida.
It is true that they think that Dewi is currently with Fadil in ReTweet cafe without anyone's knowledge.
“Wi, want to be Brother's girlfriend?” asked Fadil seriously while looking at the Goddess.
The woman laughed, “Abang joke don't miss. Don't like ggeprank!”
“Abang serious! Want to be Brother's girlfriend?”
“Unfortunately Brother doesn't have a girlfriend?”
“If you have a brother why are you dating? Mending Brother went with Brother's girlfriend.”
“I thought about it first, can you?”
“You don't like your brother? Or maybe you already have a boyfriend?”
“If you already have a girlfriend why am I here with Brother?”
“Nah, it knows! So how?”
“I'm afraid Brother cheated! We are far away. If being brother's girlfriend means we're LDR dong. Continues, Brother can be loyal gak?”
“Abang promise of loyalty!”
“If you just talk, Beo can too. Proof dong!”
“What do you want proof of?”
“You sure you want to fulfill my wish?”
“Em, just say it!”
“I want to check Brother's phone, can?”
Glegs…
Goddess smiles, “Right? There's something you're hiding from me! Yes, no forcing. I was just kidding. I wasn't that possessive until I checked the girlfriend's phone.”
Fadil stared at Dewi with a linked alist, “That last sentence what does it mean huh?”
“About according to Brother?” Goddess playing word with Fadil.
“I wasn't that possessive until I checked the girlfriend's phone. That means you consider your girlfriend's brother?” The goddess smiled and then nodded.
“Still yes! I thought you would refuse.”
“But I will still check your phone next time. If you don't hunt now, I have to go home!”
“Ya already, come on! brother inter!” both left the cafe. Five minutes after their departure, Eva and Reja came to ReTweet together.
“Dek, you want to be Brother's girlfriend?”
“Abang serious? How does your brother feel to the Goddess? I don't want to be made an escape.”
“As you have said, you no longer want to know him. Brother is disgusted with her.”
Eva smiled full of candy, “Everything you like will be called! Get ready, Wi!”
