What I'm Going to be without You

Lip Scars

Someone swiftly beat up Aris' friends, the three of them whimpered in pain.

"Damn it", snapped Aris.

Aris releases Meira's body, then confronts the man. The man looked familiar to Meira. Meira widens her eyes when she finds out that the man is Rafa. Rafa is still fighting with Aris, it does not take long finally Aris invites his friends to run away.

Rafa approaches Meira.

"Lo, no papa?" ask Rafa.

Meira shook her head.

"Thank you, help me again".

"As a sign of my gratitude, what if I buy you a meal?" Despite doubts about being accepted by her offer, Meira still wants to treat her, because she feels bad if she does not return the favor.

"If for example it is not elo, I will also help" he replied flatly.

"Yes, just so, I have to thank you", Meira began to get upset.

"So, anyway, why are you passing by the gini-rich dark road, where the lights on die again".

"So I just want to go a different way, uh I know even the event is rich gini".

"Trus lo why this way?" ask Meira back.

"Ngapain lo nanya-anya", he answered cuek.

Meira just pouted listening to Rafa's answer.

"So how's my offer?" Meira asked again because she had not received an answer from Rafa.

"Udah, let's go home, won't we?" Rafa doesn't comment on Meira's call.

Meira rushes to retrieve his bike which was hidden by Aris' gang. Meira pedals his bike accompanied by Rafa using a motorbike.

"Lo, like to bike?" ask Aris.

"Why do it, want to know" Meira replied to Rafa.

"Oh, my man is just a doang, Ge'eR", he replied.

Meira kept pedaling her bike. Rafa now only follows him from behind because the road starts rame, Rafa is worried that if he walks next to Meira's bike the road will be full. Rafa watched Meira who continued to pedal his bike, it seemed like Meira was getting tired. Rafa approaches.

"Anyways, I brought the bike" Rafa offered Meira a favor.

"No, I'm still strong" Meira replied with a breath of innocence.

"If we don't stop there" Rafa's left hand pointed towards a mini market not far from their direction. A small mini market in front of him was a fried rice and meatballs seller.

"No, my house is gone". replied Meira who was a little tired, actually he wanted to stop too but he was prestige.

Rafa is not out of sense.

"Say you want to buy me",

Meira thought for a moment, finally she could not resist Rafa. He also wanted to rest for a while, because the incident still made him shocked, how dare Meira if confronted like that would be afraid as well, let alone their energy is not comparable.

The two of them stopped in front of the minimarket that Rafa had appointed earlier. Rafa immediately ordered fried rice, then asked Meira to eat too or not. Meira shook her head because she had eaten earlier at home even though it was just a little.

Rafa and Meira sat down. Meira put her helmet on the table and then drank the rest of her drink that she had bought when she went cycling. They're still waiting for Rafa's order.

"Lo don't meet my acquaintance? From the beginning we met blm acquaintance", Meira tried a little stale.

"No need, I know you".

"Lo, Meira right, IPA 2nd grader".

His fried rice brother came to deliver the fried rice to their table.

"Thank you Sir", Rafa smiled at his fried rice man.

Rafa directly ate his fried rice devouringly without further ado. Meira just stared at the astonishment, she was starving what doyan, her inner self.

"Do you know me anyway?" Meira curious.

Hearing that question Rafa immediately choked and hurriedly picked up the rest of Meira's drink that stayed a quarter. Rafa did not hesitate to spend his drink. Meira just glared in astonishment. That's her drink bottle, Meira's lip.

"That's my drink, if I'm rabies how, keep nular to elo, you're not afraid?"

"Gga papa, the important thing is not to turn into a monkey" answered Rafa casually.

Meira just smiled, hearing her joke. Meira rushes into the mini market and returns with a bottle of water.

"Ni, make an elo", Meira offers her a drink that has been opened bottle cap.

"You've opened the lid, you've got the incantation?" rafa asked with joking intent.

"Gini day still believes that? ckckck Lagian was drinking my usual drink".

"That's a former lo, now lonya no papa, means the drink is nothing dong", joked Rafa again with a small laugh.

"Any time", Meira replied not to lose.

"Eh cobain deh, the fried rice is delicious lo", Rafa thrusts a spoonful of fried rice into Meira's mouth.

Meira still did not open her mouth, she then looked into Rafa's eyes. Rafa's eyes offered full confidence. Meira opens her mouth and enters a spoonful of fried rice into her mouth in other words Rafa feeds Meira. Meira chewed the fried rice without suspicion until finally, she felt like chewing something spicy in her mouth. Meira rushed out the remaining fried rice that was in her mouth using a tissue.

Rafa laughed happily at Meira's pungent behavior. Meira immediately drank the drink that had been opened. Meira opened her mouth, it felt like there was fire coming out of her mouth, Meira shaking her hand in front of her own mouth.

"Do you know me?" Meira's a little upset.

Rafa was deliberately fouled Meira by inserting pickled chili behind fried rice that was fed to Meira secretly.

"Well, if I just want to drink this water now" said Rafa who immediately drank the drink that Meira had just drank.

Rafa was still smiling looking at Meira's behavior while Meira was still spiciness.

"Masa, so much doang already pesesesan", ledek Rafa.

Meira just pouted and was still pungent. Meira is not too resistant to eat spicy food, a little chilli already makes it spicy. Rafa finished off the rest of his fried rice. Then they rushed home immediately.

On the way they don't talk to each other. Rafa was still following Meira from behind. Every now and then Meira looks back to see if Rafa is still behind her or not.

They finally arrived in front of Meira's house.

"Gue turned back, my job is done nganter lo until home" said Rafa.

"Thank you, it's my anterin" this time Meira really sincerely thank you, not that the thank you that was not sincere just that she was very grateful more deeply.

Rafa just smiled and nodded. Meira goes inside the gate and Rafa still looks at her from behind Meira's back. Then Meira turned around.

"Rafa", call Meira to Rafa who is getting ready to ride his bike.

Rafa.

"Thank you for today", Meira smiled.

Rafa gave his thumbs up and smiled. Then left Meira's house. Meira doesn't think Rafa isn't who she thinks he is. Meira had thought Rafa was a very ignorant, arrogant, arrogant and introverted person. And one more thing, Meira did not expect for a moment she could forget her feelings for Keynan, especially after what happened last afternoon.
