The Stunning My Life

Ill

I blinked after hearing someone call my name. Mini, it looks like he's trying to wake me up.

"Phi, you have a fever." Mini looked at me knitting her eyebrows together.

This morning I had to call the office because I couldn't work. I'm sick, maybe it's the effect of last night. My head was dizzy, and my body temperature was slightly raised.

Bornik Susan had intended not to go to teach to care for and accompany me at home, but I said if I was okay. And now, I'm home alone because Mini has to go to college.

I don't want to remember Adi and her mother last night. Because it not only hurt my feelings, but also my physique. Hence, I try to keep myself busy to rest and watch TV only.

I read some whatsapp messages from Juna. Juna asked me how I was. I don't know if Juna has understood how far it went. If I guess, maybe Mini told him something.

I told Juna that I'm better now. Mini last night also helped me compress my cheeks. He put Adi in front of me. Never mind, I don't want to talk about that guy anymore either.

This afternoon Juna visited me at home. He came with Mini as well as Haris. Maybe they made a deal to come here after college.

"Get well soon yes, Phi," Haris told me.

I, who was sitting on my pillow on the bed, smiled. "Thanks, Ris."

The four of us, me, Juna, Mini, and Haris gathered together in the room room room. Haris sits on a mini study desk wooden chair that she drags to the edge of the mattress. And Mini, she's sitting on the edge of the bed next to Haris.

As for Juna, the man sat right beside me while looking at me from earlier. I don't know what Juna's thinking, but he doesn't seem to like seeing me like this.

"Si Adi is crazy! From the beginning I was forbidden to go with him, right? Lo is wayward." Mini grumbling looking at me.

"Yes but it's not Sophia's fault, Beb. The guy is crazy!" haris was also critical.

I just kept quiet.

Juna rubbed my left cheek suddenly. I also quickly looked at him. "illness?" She's staring.

"Udah whirring, really. I don't feel numb anymore." Answer me, then smile.

"Let's relax, Jun.., I've been compressing ice blocks from the North Pole on my cheeks," Mini's timpal made Haris laugh.

I thought it was funny too, but Juna looked flat. He did not offend the slightest thin curve on his lips from earlier.

"Beb, come out yuk!" Mini pulls Haris' hand. He and his girlfriend also walked away.

"The door is open, yes. Don't macem lo Jun with my cousin," said Mini.

"Ready!!!" juna exclaimed at my cousin.

Now there's me and Juna in the room.

"Sorry, Sophia." Juna looked at me with her shady eyes.

"I'm sorry for what?"

"I'm sorry I failed to take care of you" Juna explained to me.

I smile. "You didn't fail, though. The road should be like this. Maybe let me know, if I don't choose the wrong girlfriend."

Juna smiled, then looked down at my left cheek. "Si Adi is so insolent that makes the cheeks of a girlfriend of a charlatan." Juna looked back at my eyes. "Please Sophia, I'll slap her faster for you."

I'm laughing a little. "Don't...."

"Let's go. But how can I believe it, anyway? Tu guy must have a reason to make you like gini?" Juna started asking.

I was silent for a moment. "Maybe Adi sprained because I despised her mother." I looked at Juna.

"You despise Adi's mother?" Juna widened her eyes at me.

I was still staring at the man, then something wet was flowing slowly down my cheek. I quickly wiped the corners of my eyes. "I don't really want to insult Adi's mother." I tried to smile. "No pa-pa, really."

Juna breathed heavily. "Why? Same story with me. Don't be cut out by yourself, Sophia. What use do I do for you? I want to hear all your stories. Whether it's grinning, or sad."

One sec. Two seconds. I hugged Juna. I closed my eyes feeling Juna's warm hand stroking my back. That calm and comfortable feeling, I don't want to lose it.

"Adi's mom said," I said, starting to tell Juna. I don't know why it feels so bad to tell it. My tears are flowing from those corners.

I don't want to look good in front of Juna. But I don't think I can do it. "He said I was less educated."

Juna slowly pushed both my arms off the hug. He looked at me, then wiped my tears with both hands.

"It's just stupid people who don't like you. You're great, Sophia. They're the only ones who can't see that." Juna smiled at me. "Would you like to see my mom?"

"Meet your mother?"

Juna smiled again.

I'm actually still traumatized. Adi's mother could do that to me. I'm afraid that Juna's mother will treat me like Aunt Sari did last night.

I'm shaking. "I'm scared. I'm afraid your mother doesn't like me."

Juna smiled. "Not.... Mother is good, really. I'm sure my mom will be the nicest person you've ever met."

I just kept quiet.

"My mom likes you, Sophia. Believe it." Juna convinced me.

After a day off, I am back to work. The atmosphere of the office is a little different. Adi who was usually friendly with me, now turned indifferent.

My slightly bruised cheek was already faintly gone. I've recovered, and my recovery has made me lose respect for Adi.

I'll just talk to Adi for office work, nothing more. I don't want to hang out with guys like him. I think being close to Adi was a mistake, and I don't want to repeat that mistake again.

This afternoon Raya invited me to lunch outside the office. We had a bike with his Honda vario.

***

At a place to eat with Raya...

"Phi, how is your meeting with Mama Pak Adi? Smoothly?" ask Raya to me.

I was silent for a moment. "Well, ma'am." My answer.

"I think Mr. Adi likes you. Very lucky, anyway. Mr. Adi is well established, handsome again. It looks like Rezca Syam, doesn't it?" Raya laughs.

I chuckled thinly. "Where is Rezca Sham going, Ma'am."

"That's the way to agree." Raya went back to eating her lunch.

Last morning Raya also some office people questioned my situation. They asked me what I was sick of. I'll answer if I have a fever.

I don't want to take my personal problems with Adi to work. I don't need to worry about Adi's rottenness in the office guys. Let them judge Adi according to their thinking.

"Sophia."

"Hm?" I turned my eyes wide to the Kingdom who called out to me.

"So you already have a relationship with Mr Adi? Come on, dong...."

I tried to smile. "Nothing, Ma'am. I have a boyfriend, I have a boyfriend."

"Seriously?" The gape looked surprised.

I'm nodding.

"Oh my goodness, what a pity Mr. Adi. Her love clapped one hand, dong." Raya close her lips frowned her frown slowly.

"Sir Adi does not like me, Ma'am. Mbak Raya himself already has a candidate yet?" askaku.

It looks a little blushed there. "Udah, anyway. But the regional people. So our LDRs," Raya told me.

"Well, that's the spirit of Mommy." I smile.

"Yes, Sophia. Thanks." Thanks." Raya also smiled.

We continued to eat lunch. I salute Raya. He said if his girlfriend was a regional person. They must be rare or even very difficult to meet. But Raya always seems happy every day when working.

I hope he didn't choose the wrong partner either. These days that look is often misleading. People who are initially kind and polite can turn out like demons.

Healthy relationships are hard. I also don't know what my relationship with Juna will be like. But I hope, it will be happy. [ ]
