The Possessive Inclined

eps 44s

"Gue has checked out a fairly complete sports store near here" Ferdy said while showing the location of the store via his mobile phone.

"You go straight there!" bring Darren.

In the car, Via was busy struggling with his cell phone.

🌺Via Pov🌺

^^^👨'Where to?'^^^

Chat notifications from Aldo who just logged in.

⁇ 'Again holiday to Semarang nih.'

^^^👨'Ama who?'^^^

⁇ 'Ama family.'

^^^👨'Kalo so I followed ya? Where're you?'^^^

Gawat nih. I'm not going to feel good about him.

I'm sorry, I'm outside with Ferdy.'

^^^👨'Oooo.. I happen to be in Semarang as well. Can we meet for a minute?'^^^

⁇ 'Oh yeah?'

^^^👨'I am at Padangrani Art Market now again hunting souvenirs to bring to Jakarta later.'^^^

"Nnggf... Fer, where are we going now?"

"To the Padangrani market. Nih dah sampe. Why?"

"Ooo... Yes, that's it."

I also happened to be in the same place. Where are you at? Let me be the samperin, because Ferdy is looking for stuff too.'

^^^👨'I'm at a coffee shop next to selling paintings yes. It's the only one. Easy way.'^^^

⁇ 'OK, tar I'm going there.'

Arriving at the Padangrani market, I followed Darren and Ferdy to a shop that sold spare parts skate boards. In order for them not to be suspicious, I pretended to see the souvenirs of the merchants' invitations while asking where Aldo meant. Until I got the info of the place from one of the merchants. Since Ferdy and Darren were busy looking for her spare parts skate board, I told them both that I wanted to go somewhere else for a bit.

At the place that Aldo had set, I immediately met him who was sitting in a cafe chair with a cup of his drink.

"Hi, Via!" after seeing my arrival.

*aldo

I approached him and took a seat next to him. "Old old?"

"Not too long either. What do you want to drink?" bargained for.

"Mmm.." I was confused and still looking in the menu book. "Just strawberry juice," I replied after finding the name of the drink listed in the menu book.

"Sir! Sir!" call Aldo to one of the cafe employees. "Strawberry juice one yes," the message after the employee came over.

"Good, sir! Any more additions?"

"Any more, Via?"

"So. That's enough, "I replied.

"That's it, sir."

"Okay, I made it first. Just a minute!" pamit the father earlier while carrying his notes.

"So you came here with Ferdy?"

"Yes, same Ferdy and Darren, too" I replied honestly.

"Ooo... Is there Darren too?" it seems she was shocked when I mentioned Darren's name.

"Yes. It just so happened that he was with us on vacation to Semarang."

"Jewerly is my mom ordering done?"

"Yet. But it's in the polishing stage. When you're done, I'll tell you. You can go to Semarang?"

"I have an office job. Continue to survey the craftsmen who have collaborated with me in this area."

"Oooo.." I replied with a beard.

Suddenly Ferdy grabbed my right hand. "Via, I want us to be more than just friends. Can we just go out?"

I can't believe he could talk like that, even though we've only known him for a short time. I tried to pull my hand, but again he pulled my other hand and held it tightly.

"I'm.."

"Didn't both of our parents agree to match us? Even my mother was very happy to hear our matchmaking. He always wished I could bring you in to be a member of our family."

"Nngggs.... That's... Aldo, I can't" I said, releasing my hand from his grasp.

"Why?"

The father who had come brought my drink. "Excuse me, ma! It's juice!" leave and go again.

"I've got a boyfriend."

"Do you have a boyfriend? Who?" her question was shocked and curious.

"Darren," I answered briefly.

I could see him looking disappointed and one of his clenched hands was stomping on the table but not making a loud sound. It seemed like he looked annoyed after he found out the person whose name I called.

"Him? Why should he? Didn't you say you thought of him as your ade?"

"mmm.. It was originally yes, but I just liked it."

"You know he's young. He must be just playing you in the future."

"Regarding that, I can't describe it either. But I can only try to live first."

After a few seconds of our discussion, we were silent for a moment. Each of us tried to calm down first.

"okay! Alrighty! But we can still be friends, right?" expectantly.

"Sure! We can still be friends. Isn't our relationship okay?"

"Yes, you're right! It's just that I've been preceded by your new boyfriend" he replied with a flat smile in disappointment.

"Sorry!"

"Why should I apologize? You're not doing anything wrong? We want to date anyone who is our right. Yeah, right?" tanyanya wants to hear my approval.

"Yes! I hope you can find the right person, too" I hope.

He just smiled. This time I couldn't read what her smile meant. Whether it was a sincere smile or some other feeling.

"So they're also around here?" Aldo asks about Ferdy and Darren's whereabouts.

"Yes, they're hunting for skate board tools."

"Kalo Darren knows you're here with me, won't he be jealous?"

Is he really like that? Just meeting Aldo can make him jealous?

"He can't be like that" she said.

"Do you know him better? I guess, he's not the generous type. You really need to understand it. Especially his age is still very unstable."

I drank a little of my juice while digesting Aldo's talk. "Thank you for your kind intentions that have warned me. But as for our relationship, let us face it. Sorry, I have to be right back. I was afraid that they would be busy looking for me, because I was just saying goodbye to hunting souvenirs," I said, who had moved from my chair.

"Okay, Vi!"

"Thank you for the drink."

"Yes. Take care!"

"OKAY. Good.bye..!" I cried while waving my hands at him saying goodbye.

I walked out of the cafe and passed by a grocery store that sold food and drinks. To my surprise, there was Darren who was looking through the contents of the store while wearing his wireless headphones. He's picking some snacks.

"Darren!" call me while poking her arm.

He turned his head towards me while removing the headset he was wearing earlier and was hung on his neck area.

*darren

"Hi, Vi!" reply with a smile.

"What are you looking for?"

"Shop a little for stock in the villa. Sometimes the mouth likes not to stand if not snacking."

"There's spare parts shopping?"

"Come on. Uda taro in car too. Where you been?"

"Ooo... I just met you."

"Cowok what chick?" ask her while busy looking at the other snacks.
