You, Or Him

Episode 15's

It had been a week after the very painful event for Zia had passed. Since then Zia has become a different person. Uncheerful, and more often confine themselves.

Zia's days were spent looking at the capital's crowded streets from the boutique balcony she held. Without any work to do.

Right now all her best friends are visiting her at the boutique, minus Rumi. They try to restore Zia's world, which has been damaged by that jerk. In her silence Zia was grateful to have a friend like them. But his disappointment was so great that he was reluctant even though he only let out a little laughter.

"Zi lo should know the boy is wearing thick glasses, middle split hair, clothes in, flash pantofel shoes. What student is the lecturer?" said one of his best friends.

They were laughing together considering how the appearance of a junior who had just moved to the same faculty as them was.

Like their efforts failed today. They were already tired of laughing but did not change Zia's mood in the least.

"Oh yes Zi, we can order 12 pairs bridesmaids dress. Accept it or what?" ask Fisya while taking a drink in the available refrigerator.

Zia turned her gaze then raised her shoulders.

"Lo why the hell, Zi?" Reno sighed. Tired of seeing Zia despair like this.

"Why? I'm not papa!" said Zia.

"Kalo lo ga papa, behave as usual to us. Show us if you really are not papa. You have to point it out to all, one guy can't break your world. You have to show it. Not even the urgency is clearly rich gini. I'm sick of seeing you!" reno sarcasm.

"Lo sick of seeing me? I'm more fed up with Ren. I'm sick of everything. I'm sick of my life. I'm sick of the same thing that happened. I hate. I want to die and forget--"

PLAKKK!!

One hard slap landed smoothly on Zia's cheek. Yeah, Reno slapped Zia. Seeing that, Daniel instantly pulled Reno away. I don't understand what he just saw.

Zia held her cheek. His body shook and his cries were heard. Fisya hugged Zia's shaken body. He also cried to see his friend.

"What the hell lo Ren? You're crazy? You don't realize what you've done just now?" snapped Daniel.

"Biarin And. Let him be aware of what he's saying. He thinks he's like we're always happy? If I hadn't slapped him, maybe he didn't realize and he wouldn't have stopped talking that well. He doesn't think about our feelings, what kind of parents are his sisters? Where's the Zia we used to know?" pissed Reno.

"But that's it too. Zia is a girl. You don't know how shaken he is because of your slap." Daniel looked at Reno sharply. Then turned his gaze towards Zia and Fisya.

Reno and Daniel are closing in. On seeing him Zia was drinking that was taken Fisya.

"Zi." murmured Daniel.

Zia raised her head, then smiled faintly. As if hinting at papa.

"Udah unconscious? Do you understand that you're talking about that's not good?"  ketus Reno's.

"Ren.." prevent Fisya.

Zia held Fisya's hand. His views are in conflict with Reno. Zia knows Reno doesn't hate her. Just wanted to wake her up from this situation.

"I don't think I can get Ren. Because in that betrayal there is a feeling of my best friend. I feel like I want to be selfish, but I can't see my friend breaking as rich as I am today." One tear Zia glided freely.

"Gue wants to kill the girl. But what power, that chick is Rumi. My friend, our friend. I want to rise rich that you said earlier, but I don't think I can. My heart hurts Ren, it hurts so much. Life is playing me." Zia wiped away her tears. "So if you want to hate me, that's your right. I can't get banned."

"Zi, it's not that.."

Zia smiled. "So how? I realized I didn't deserve to be loved.  Adit is a real example. I like it too because of the bets."

Zia walked towards the bathroom without any more words. Tired of his eyes.

***

They are currently in the cafe opposite the boutique. Deliberately leaving Zia to give her some time to calm down.

"Not so many times either. But how, I'm upset. It's just because Adit's rich guy thinks he wants to die" Reno said.

"Yes how is she also a girl of Ren's time. Sometimes it's outrageous."

"Try lo so I, must've done the same thing."

"No. I also know what you rasain bego. Only I still understand what a broken hearted woman is." replied Daniel while sipping his coffee.

"Yaudah. It's gone too." annoyed Reno.

"Yes, the point is that you're too much."

***

The sun seemed to be timidly showing itself. It's cold today. It will rain like that. The girl who was walking in the gazebo of a faculty was tightening her cardigens.

The ringing of the phone made him stop his steps. Soon he grabbed the phone that was in his bag.

"Yes. This is just a moment again I nyampe canteen." he replied while chuckling.

The girl spread her eyes across the canteen. Then there was a hand that waved towards him.

"Gee. The aura is different." ledek Reno.

"Yes. Because of your slap the other day yes," said Fisya.

"Evigorated also turned out. Tomorrow if there is a broken heart directly in the slap just to be aware immediately," said Daniel chuckled.

"Lo shaland." Rajuk Zia's. "But mon maap nih. I am not excited because of you. But because I didn't accidentally see the sheets of my scripting that was sad yesterday" he said laughing.

"Well, I guess because of my slap." Reno showed her plain face.

"Eh but I swear I'm not lying. Lo slap so hard Ren. I feel like fainting."

Reno laughing. "Yes hard. Abis nampar my hands hurt. But yaudah I enjoy it. When else can you slap Zia?"  reno said while raising his eyebrows.

"Lo emang's path. You're the same as me. I don't want to slap it rich."

"But if I don't slap, not necessarily today you're here."

"Yes, anyway."

After that they engaged in an exciting, serious and funny topic of conversation. Seen from the faces of each of them who sometimes tensed and laughed loudly.

"Hi, can we join?"

Tbc it's a lot
