"Sister, I'm ahead!" I said in a phone call while standing in front of a two-story boarding house that looks beautiful and comfortable.
"Here you go?" Said Dimas who suddenly came out from behind a door not far from where I was standing while waving.
"Not brother. I can't stay long!" My reply approached him while reaching into my bag and giving me a flash.
"It's okay. It's not good, you've come all the way here when not in!" He opened the door wide.
"But I don't think I can really take long!" I said again trying to reject it and continue to stick the flash in front of him.
"Him!" Call him while patting both my shoulders.
"Do you still consider the cave of strangers, after we first decet!!" His words put emphasis on me.
"I actually..."
"Remember that." Said it while clasping tightly onto my shoulder."The cave has never been in your house for a week so full of not strong clay cave you are sick, because in your house no one is sick." His words confirmed the relationship between the two of us while patting both of my shoulders.
"Ahh.that's!?"
"Our relationship is as close as it is, now you consider the cave as a stranger!" He put his warm hand on my crown.
Back in High School, I had been hit by typhoid accompanied by platelets that decreased dramatically after 5 days and 5 nights of staying up for a marathon watching anime wanpis.
After recovering from the hospital, I finally had to rest at home for a whole week, but my parents were very busy and did not have time to take care of me who was sick, so they asked Dimas for help to take care of me for a week until my condition recovered.
We used to be even that close, even my parents were very happy with Dimas' presence in because they also had no sons. Dimas has been like this since a long time ago, he always treated me like his own sister, but my feelings back then were not like this, I liked him a lot. They want more than just friends or relatives.
I don't know since when we both stayed away and it became so awkward to just ask the news, maybe since I said in a prank chat to him that I wanted more than just friends. And after that he kind of ignored my chat more often and did not reply for days, then shortly after, I heard that he already had a girlfriend from college kids.
From then on I stopped sending her messages, and was used to living in her absence.
"But I don't want anyone to misunderstand me!" My reply made an excuse while continuing to wait for him to take the flash I thrust.
"Lu who does not want to go inside and chat in front of the kosan gini instead of making those who see become misunderstood. Who snekos here most of our campus children loh." His dream kept pushing me.
"But..!"
"Udah yuk!" He led my hand to get into his place.
Look at a simple map room that has a bed of main room, one bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom, but the place is very comfortable and also clean. In the middle room there is a round table of low-legged lesehan, accompanied by a velvet carpet that must have his mother who he cheered and brought to the boarding house secretly.
"What drinker?" Ask her while going to the kitchen.
"What a hell, brother!"
"Lu still likes at omelin ibuk gak, because often drink ice powder sasetan container using plastic oil!" Tanya took a cold drink in the refrigerator.
"Abis sick, I've never had a drink again!" I stared at his busy back breaking into the kitchen.
"Good indeed. Micin is also often not!"
"If that's not a question!" I answered laughing.
"How are you?" He said while putting the orange juice and two glasses on the table.
"Good brother. How's brother?"
"Alhamdulillah is good too. We haven't been talking like this for a long time, it feels so awkward, we never separated!" He said it while laughing awkwardly when he said it.
"Hee.iya!" My answer was even more awkward.
"I'm sorry. All this because of the cave, eating our relationship is not like it anymore." His words humbled his tone, as if feeling guilty about what had happened all along.
"Well, I'm sorry. We are both in college, a lot of work, stacks of tasks, where there is time to play. We're both adults, it's just a good time to play High School!!" My answer was accompanied by a slight stale smile looking at him.
"But for the cave, it wasn't just a fun time playing High School time." His speech was firm, accompanied by his high tone. "Ehh sorry. Cake kek gini anyway!" He said again with a shy face and did not dare to look at me.
"Cua just..." He was silent for a moment and looked at the empty glass on the table."The cave wants us to go back in the kayak again!" The connection with a slightly humbled tone with a look of regretful face looking at me.
I stared back at him as he hoped that I would say the same thing he told me.
By raising my gaze and smiling kindly, I sighed signaling I would return his words.
"We're both grown-ups!" I replied looking at her round black eyes that seemed to grow bigger as I replied to her words. "So don't know, if I didn't like to disturb people's relationships. Even though we won, still not be able to go back to kayak first!!"
He silently stared as he turned his gaze to look at the empty glasses that adorned the table.
"sorry. The cave asks the impossible again ama you!" He answered a little glancing at me."Surely you really hate the cave, after the cave dare ngacangin last chat you who said you want more than just temen to the cave!"
"The real cave doesn't mean to disrupt you vow. The cave actually has a reason that can not be called the cave same lu, when it was a cave that beg*nya kebangetan, but because now you are already in front of the cave. The cave wants to be honest with you!" Her frown was not curling at my two eyes.
"YES!" Call her slow."The cave also wants to take you more than just cementan!"
I looked back at her eyes that looked at me like the person she had been waiting for the most in her life.
He started to look riled up at my expression that thought he was just joking.
"Well. Serious cave!" He strangled me while holding both of my arms.
"Haw..." My confused words cannot believe.
"Serious cave!" Again he looked at my two eyes.
"Gua really used to love you. The cave really likes you from the first time we met! Caves only, just.no courage to turn directly to you."
I was even more surprised to hear all his explanations in addition he also had the same feeling towards me from High School time.
"Gua's dating another girl, actually let you be jealous. The cave just wanted to make you chase the cave all this time, but..kayaknya cave even delay, and finally we even broke up and did not contact for almost a year!!" Clearly holding both my arms tightly. "Gua... really want us to date, the cave can not keep gini, the cave has been quite tortured waiting for you all this time."
He drew closer to me and tightened his entire grip linking my arms together.
"Caves..."
He looked at my eyes and clung to my body.
"Dimas Shelf!!".Scream me while pushing her body away from me.
Dimas looked at me who rejected him blatantly and looked at my two implied eyes that I no longer wanted to.
"I like my brother too!" I said as I bowed my gaze not daring to look at him.."But that was before, because now I like other people."
"Hahaha!!" She's shocked. "You mean what His!" The unaccepted response.
"I have also long loved big brother, from the first time brother nganterin I came home for fear of returning night lessons, until sister willing to spend a week at home to take care of me who is sick again. I really like my brother and want more than just friends. But that was my sister, now I. I don't have that feeling anymore!!" My honest answer reveals all my heart.
He looked surprised looking at my eyes.
"Why?" He didn't take it."Why?" Ask panicked.
"I have someone I like!" I answered while smiling wryly looking at him.
"I have someone I like." Let me tell you again that Dimas understands my feelings.
He shifted his sitting position that was originally docked in front of me then moved away and sat in his original position.
"Hawahh..." Grunts while looking at the ceiling." The cave has no hope!" He said while laughing stalely staring at the juice of the cottage on the table.
"Gua already knew it was going to be like this! With the pedenya cave even think that you will continue to like the same cave even though it was gua peacin!" Continue while scooping his own face.
"Sorry!" I bowed my gaze to him.
Dimas smiled wryly looking at my jellyfish and gently rubbed my head.
"The one who should be apologizing!" The reply now looks calm."The evil cave. After the cave ninggalin you and do not give any news at all, continue to date with other girls. By not knowing himself the cave even dares to shoot you and say that the cave has long liked you. The cave is really embarrassed, the cave really does not know itself!!" He confessed it all to me."Lucky for the person you like!" Say it while exhaling deeply.
"Well!"
"Surely he was very happy, got people like Anya!"
"Hhhhmmm..." Short reply.
"If the cave did not admit to such ridiculous actions, maybe we could not be together until now!" Said Dimas again continue to bring up the problem.
I don't return her words, even if she and I are, I won't change my destiny to be someone else's wife. It might even hurt more if I actually went out with Dimas and married Archie.
I once thought that God has given the best way for each of his people. If only I hadn't gone on the painful journey that Dimas clearly resisted back then, it would have been complicated when I still liked Dimas but on the other hand
already being the wife of people.
"Lohs. It was old her. Don't go in there." Dimas spoke to someone at the door who I happened to be back.
There were footsteps coming into Dimas's room and standing right in front of my back.
"Behold, the cave wants to grab a glass for you to drink first!" Say Dimas while moving.
"Lu love cola no Shie!!" Shouted Dimas from the kitchen.
*Archie, read Arshie.
"Shi!!" My murmured while silently pecking and glancing towards my back.
"Whatever it is!" Answer the voice behind my back.
DEG...
Archie!!
