The Love Between Two Countries

Looking to Indonesia?

Love is not just commitment. Fertilize and water to continue to grow fertile and can cheerfully accompany your days.

Bernard, holding the stalk of his liquor glass, recounts how Azharin ignored it when another woman replied to her message. Gilberto is a good listener. The story Bernard told me many times.

"You're going to go to Indonesia?" ask Gilberto.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Indonesia is so vast, do you know where she is?" ask Gilberto again and get a sash from Bernard.

"Do you know where he works?" Gilberto narrowed the question. Once again Gilberto got the trouser.

"You're being irrational. You don't know anything about that girl."

Gilberto has changed his assumptions about Azharin. Bernard had told him why Azharin had stopped their relationship. Gilberto confirmed what Azharin was doing. There was nothing Bernard wanted to know, other than just saying would come and say love. Gilberto felt Bernard deserved the decision to be left behind.

Bernard continued to gulp down his drink. He drinks not because it relieves stress, he vents anger. Bernard's habit is always that when he's angry.

"Not quite satisfied are you with the glass containing the drink?" gilberto asked, seeing his friend as if he did not want to stop. Bernard was forced to stop. He was pulled out of the bar after Gilberto completed the payment.

"Awas you a foreign girl. I'll kill you to your country. Who do you think you are" Bernard said cursing and threateningly.

Bernard did not lose consciousness. He was still venting his anger because it was suddenly decided just like that. Gilberto was silent. He focused on driving. He understood, there was no benefit in refuting the speech of an emotional person.

"It's not as easy as you say you want to kill people, let alone you know nothing" Gilberto joked in his heart. He continued to drive at standard speed.

Bernard would have trouble tracking Azharin in what city he was and what job he was. Azharin is quite mysterious with her social media. Azharin barely wrote any status or posted any photos. Even his profile picture is just one. It's just sideways. Her friend's contact is private. He just shared a post about cooking. The only guideline is just his profile picture. He was wearing an original profile picture.

Gilberto followed Bernard into the house. "You want me to go?"

"No, I still want to talk to you."

They went upstairs and went to the balcony. They took out a cigar and lit it. Looks like smoke is billowing. Gilberto didn't start any conversation. Until Bernard opens his voice, "I want him."

"What's the advantage?"

"I don't know. At first I liked to see his profile picture. Then when I saw her real face, I liked her even more."

"Is that acceptable logic?"

"She's a smart and mysterious girl."

Bernard paused for a moment and said, "He's different. He's also very stubborn. I want to conquer him." Bernard's soul was challenged.

Gilberto. Finally he said, "Is he not an impingement because of Laurren?"

"Don't mention her name again. I've been killing in my heart for a long time." Bernard's tone was hateful.

Bernard has a standard face. The man was neither too handsome nor too ugly. It's just that his blue eyes are so shady to look at. Her lips were thin and had a sharp philtrum, making her smile so charming. Gilberto is more handsome.

"But the time you greeted her wasn't far after she left your life."

"Yes. That time somehow her profile appeared on a friend's suggestion list. I love seeing her beautiful smile. Friendship was accepted, but he ignored me. Months long." Bernard laughed heartily.

When Azharin replied, Bernard was very pleased. He felt even happier when Azharin was willing to give out WhatsApp numbers. Bernard even asked for permission when he was first going to make a video call. Now he knows he was just decided. His soul won't accept.

"Be a real man and don't make false promises if you're serious." Gilberto could only give that advice.

"You mean, I'll be there as soon as I can?"

"Yeah, what else. You're not poor enough, are you?"

"The girl left you. You're selfish and you can't sacrifice."

Gilberto pressed his cigarette flame into the ashtray. He stood up and left Bernard in annoyance. Bernard's attitude has not changed. He always couldn't keep up with love and work. That was also the reason Laurren turned away from him.

However, Laurren's ways are not commendable. He cheated on her and still kept Bernard. Until Bernard catches Laurren with another man entering a hotel. It is different with Azharin. Azharin is classier now in Gilberto's eyes, despite deciding spontaneously unilaterally, and Gilberto increasingly wants to know who the girl really is.

If Bernard was in a dilemma, Azharin had even finished making breakfast and was preparing to go to work.

"Bang, take Arin donk." Azharin banged on her brother's room loudly.

Armian opened the room door and was also seen wearing work clothes. "You can be a little feminine?" Armian was upset, the last of his sister's behavior became more and more so.

"Feminim though, I'm in people's abode." Azharin breezed to the dining table. Armian followed his sister.

"Have you changed because of Hendri?" Armian asked after gulping down his black coffee.

"I wasn't the kid yesterday afternoon. Don't mention that name again Bang. I'm sick of hearing that. Whatever I do now, it has nothing to do with him. I just want to enjoy my life."

Armian no longer debated Azharin. Although he felt the change in the way Azharin behaved far changed. His little Azharin, never had me talk to her.

"Yes, brother, I'm sorry. I will no longer talk about him. What about the European lover?" Armian tried to ask his sister directly.

"Tell the informant brother, I've decided."

"Yeah!"

"Yes, I'm tired of guys who have a lot of promises and words. I'm looking for a real man. If you want to be a real man, get married quickly. Don't sell sweet promises!"

"It was my brother who got hit." Armian.

"I don't think Sonia is a teenage girl anymore. She's ready to be married and fertilized."

"You've been getting weird since you've been looking for a boyfriend."

"Must be. There is no taboo to speak of the relationship of two different kinds of human beings."

"Yeah, but you're still in Indonesia. And I'm your brother."

"Alaa, you're not a child anymore. Brother has also fought the most girls." Azharin said casually.

But not with Armian. He was getting upset to see his sister. "Just kid you. You think the villain brother is venereal. All this virgin, including brother's lips."

Azharin laughed. He was very happy to disturb his brother lately. "Sip, I can deliver some good news for brother-in-law. My brother is still original."

"You don't come, hurry up." Armian gulped down his coffee and stood up. Azharin quickly finished off her orange juice and defied her lunch. Azharin was not wanting to leave his office during the break.

Azharin sat down beside her brother. He checked his phone one message came from Bernard. The message came as Azharin was deep in his night's sleep.

Azharin. "Hey, queen of my heart, you have turned all nightmares into sweet dreams and polished fear with your love. Good morning with lots of kisses!"

"It's great the way he insinuates me." Azharin mutters. Armian asked and Azharin read Bernard's message.

"Wow, what a romantic word. You should like an outsider."

"I think Sonia likes it too. Try to be like Bernard."
