...Chapter XX's...
***“The most potential enemy to be the biggest threat is your own friend\,” ***
those words felt quite appropriate to describe the events that Andre was going through right now.
Unlike his friendship with Dimas and Brandon which is indeed intertwined because their parents are very close. Tony from the start was an outsider who at the time looked pretty good in their eyes. His humble and easygoing attitude makes Andre, Dimas, and Brandon easily friends with Tony.
Moreover, Tony with his dashing stature, made Dimas really like him. Moreover, Dimas really want to make a group of women conquerors until they all grow up and have their own partners. Their friendship was fairly close; at least when they were in the 7th to 8th grade.
Going into 9th grade, the seeds of division began to arise between them. Small quarrels began to occur between them, but all could still be resolved properly. However, like a cloth that has begun to wear out and is vulnerable to breaking. No matter how they try to patch up their relationship that has been hollow here and there. Their friendship breaks out, Tony breaks up with Andre, Dimas, and Brandon.
I hope their problems are solved there. But a bigger problem came to them, or rather happened to Andre. Tony, it's like there's no sin to snatch Diana away from Andre. In fact, all this time, Andre had never done anything wrong to Tony in the slightest. Even when there was a dispute during this time, among the four of them, Andre was the one who always tried to break them all up.
And at this moment, looking at Tony who was stepping forward with a fairly wide grimace on his face. It makes Andre quite upset to the point of wanting to punch Tony's face that looks no shame at all. Lately, Andre feels that Tony has planned all this from the beginning.
“Do not in ladeni. He deliberately fished you. And if you reply, it will even make people moo you. People will assume that Diana and Tony are the ones who can control lo,”
That's Dimas' advice to Andre. Although the reason is a little unreasonable and nonsense. However, if you think about it again, there is a point too. Thinking about how people who hoped he was in trouble and could be used as gossip, Andre tried to hold back his emotions.
“Well, well, look who's back. A proud loser, but it ended tragically. Wh why? Is it because of your broken-hearted leader? Should have given up from the beginning then,”
“Basic B...” Tony's words with a bit nyolot had made Dimas forward one step with his hands clenched.
Luckily, Andre was helped by Brandon had stopped Dimas before the atmosphere turned chaotic. And, it seemed to be very much awaited by Tony who did not show the slightest fear on his face.
“Keep, what have you done? Seizing people's girlfriends secretly while her boyfriend is trying to get the name of the school? Which is more of a loser do you think?”
Andre calmly countered Tony's provocation earlier. Although in truth, in his heart, he also desperately wanted to beat up Tony right now mercilessly. However, looking at Tony gritting his teeth until his jaw line appeared, it made Andre a little happy.
It seemed, he managed to find Tony's weak point that had been hard to climb up, and push him back down.
The views of the people who had been focused on Andre, now mostly even looked at Tony, some women in the class even seemed to start gossiping with their respective groups. The situation outside the classroom also seems not too different from inside the classroom. Tony, who may have found the situation unfavorable for him, walked out of the class at a long, rather quick pace.
“Soaring!! What wily!!” tony said as he dispersed the other students standing at Andre's doorstep. His voice sounded high because of emotion.
After the incident, Tony and Diana never again interacted with Andre, Dimas, or Brandon. When they accidentally met, they did not greet each other, not even smiling. It was all because Andre decided to erase all the Diana matter left on him. And in addition, he did not want his parents to know about this, even though he had to hold it alone.
However, the wall he had built during those weeks slowly cracked upon hearing Dimas and Brandon's statement. Behind him, the two friends are investigating Diana and Tony's relationship. From the beginning, the three of them were indeed a little suspicious about Tony and Diana. However, Andre who has continued to be hurt chose to rule out the possibility.
The curiosity he had been locked up all this time behind the wall also burst out from the cracks. Andre, who had been feeling stupid, began to be eaten by curiosity little by little. And in the end, she comes along with Dimas and Brandon to spy on Tony and Diana whenever the opportunity arises.
Feeling this new activity is very interesting, Dimas even to the point of breaking the rules, and bring up his own car without the knowledge of his parents—Dimas from Junior High had indeed contracted in an apartment and lived alone— by cheating the driver who was rented by his own two parents.
For the first few days. Dividing the time to satisfy his curiosity and national exam preparation had overwhelmed him. The idea of giving up also crossed his mind several times. However, his stance always wavers every time he hears the persuasion of Brandon and Dimas.
For a full 2 weeks, Andre and his two friends; who seem to be more curious than the person in question, follow Tony and Diana secretly. Outside or within the school environment.
Not much they get—or at least as long as they try to follow Tony or Diana—other than Tony who drove Diana home, or when they went to the mall or public places. As he continues to encounter unimportant moments, Dimas and Brandon are also close to giving up. Until, one afternoon, in the back garden of the school, when they were fed up enough to follow Tony and Diana like a stalker.
The three of them found Tony and Diana who were like they were in a mess. Even until there was a little scene pointing at each other between Tony and Diana. Unseemly words also came out from the two people. Luckily, the back garden of the school which is part of the old building is rarely visited by people.
“ENOUGH!! The cave is tired of the threat. All your wills have been cave. Now..”
Diana desperately, skipping around trying to grab the phone that was in Tony's hand that was raised high enough that Diana could not grab it.
“What? You want to go back to that guy, huh? You think he wants to accept a person who has betrayed like you. The dream!! Woi wake up, wake up!!”
Tony didn't seem to care, and continued to raise the hand holding the phone as high as possible.
Diana, who looked tired, immediately turned to— seemed to give up on taking the phone—and was about to walk away leaving Tony. The next thing that happened, made Andre very shocked and surprised. Tony, when Diana left, grabbed Diana's hand, held her back, and looked attractive to Diana, then kissed her.
