Chapter 21 - 20

"You fell asleep really fast last night."

Salsha pours liquid milk into a glass. Take the bread and spread it with pineapple jam. Since they went shopping yesterday, every morning the two of them always have breakfast together.

Aldi did not answer Salsha's words. He also did the same as the girl. Take the bread and spread it with chocolate jam then eat it.

"But if you sleep fast, why is your face wrinkled like that. It's like you're not sleeping," said Salsha while doing this. The man is not normal.

"What do you care!" said Aldi.

Salsha shrugged nonchalantly and devoured her bread. "None of my business, anyway."

Silent state. Both Salsha and Aldi both enjoyed their breakfast this morning.

Aldi secretly glanced at Salsha who was chewing her bread. Bella's words last night that Dhika liked Salsha resonated in her ears.

"Dhika likes you."

Salsha coughed hearing Aldi's words. She immediately drank her milk and looked at Aldi sharply. "Do you know Dika?"

"You know Dhika likes you, right?" asked Aldi without answering Salsha's previous question.

"Do not know." Sasha is lying. She knew Dhika liked him but he pretended not to notice. Dhika often seeks his attention.

"Why don't you try to open your heart with Dhika?"

"What do you care!" Salsha reversed Aldi's words earlier. "Don't worry about me."

"I just feel sorry for you." Aldi stopped eating and drank his milk. "You're actually chasing people who don't like you and ignoring people who like you."

"Don't interfere!" said Salsha.

"But it's better if you don't have a relationship" Aldi sighed tiredly and leaned his body on the back of the chair. "Dating is complicated. There's always something that shouldn't be a problem to make trouble."

"Are you talking about your own problems?" asked Salsha with a chuckle. "You fought with your girlfriend in Bandung?"

Aldi subconsciously nodded. He needs to exchange ideas with people about this problem. Especially for people who have been in a long-distance relationship.

"What is the problem?" asked Salsha curiously.

Aldi raised an eyebrow as he looked at Salsha. "What do you care?" said Aldi. He stood up and carried his bag. "This is a matter of relationship people. I'm not sure if you can help me. You've never been in a relationship before."

After saying that striking sentence Aldi stepped out of the kitchen. Salsha put the glass on the table roughly. She was offended by Aldi's striking words.

"Bastard Aldi! You insulted me!"

Salsha bought bread along with mineral water and took it away. Dinda who saw Salsha's behavior became curious.

"Sha, where are you going?" asked Dinda surprised.

"Want to go to the basketball court, give this to Farel," said Salsha as she lifted the bread and mineral water she had just bought.

"Are you still chasing Farel?" asked Dinda without thinking.

Sasha nodded enthusiastically. There was nothing that made him have to let go and stop chasing the man. "Yes, why?"

"You've gone crazy, haven't you. Farel is with Bella now. Everyone knows that."

"So why?" asked Salsha casually. "They're not dating yet. What's wrong with me still chasing Farel."

Wrong! The fault is if Salsha keeps chasing Farel and making the man glance at him. Bella will come back close to Aldi, everywhere together. And Dinda doesn't have another chance to win Aldi's heart. This opportunity is a golden opportunity for Dinda to catch up with Aldi when Bella is busy with Farel.

"The girl predicate is shameless because you've been chasing Farel already, Sha. So, stop chasing Farel."

"No, no!" Sasha shook her head. She will never let Farel fall into Bella's arms. "I will continue to pursue Farel. I want to add my predicate as destroying people's relations."

Dinda massaged her temples. Salsha is stubborn. What she wanted she had to get at all costs.

"You're crazy, Sha."

"Why don't you help me anymore, huh?" asked Sasha. "Are you siding with Bella because she's really close to the guy you like? Do you want to be friends with her?"

"No!" denied Dinda. "I still don't like Bella. But the situation now, I don't want you to be labeled as bad by people, Sha."

"What do I care!" Sasha continued her steps, which had stopped. Dinda also followed in the footsteps of Salsha. "This is my life, it's up to other people to talk about me, to insult me, I don't care!"

"Play basketball, let's go," said Dhika.

Aldi stared at the basketball court. There was Farel who was teaching Bella to play basketball. Every now and then there was the sound of happy laughter from Bella and Farel.

Aldi shook his head slowly. He was not in the mood to do any activity. "Just you, I'm lazy."

"You're having a problem, aren't you?" asked Dika curiously. All this time, Aldi just kept quiet, making Dhika confused about what was happening to his new friend.

Aldi rubbed his face. Is there any writing on his face if he is having a problem. How do people know if he's not okay?

"Nothing. I'm just being lazy."

"Like a girl!" Dhika chuckled while lightly hitting Aldi's arm. "Well, I'll go to the field first."

After Dhika's death, Aldi was pensive again. Tania still won't pick up the phone.

"Wow!" Bella suddenly came and patted Aldi's shoulder.

Aldi woke up and turned his gaze to Bella. "Why?"

"What's wrong with that," Bella said. "I can see from the field that you're just pensive. What's the problem?"

Aldi looked at Bella deeply, there's nothing wrong with sharing his problem with Bella. Maybe Bella could help.

"I'm having problems with my girlfriend in Bandung," said Aldi finally.

Bella nodded. Aldi once told that he did have a girlfriend in Bandung. "What is the problem?"

"I feel like my relationship with him is not healthy anymore. It's very toxic," complained Aldi. "She's a little bit angry. She needs to be told a little bit. Possessive. It's too late to tell him he's already angry. It makes me uncomfortable."

"Maybe she's like that because she misses you. It can be surprising, from those of you who meet every day now, you have to stay away. Why are you moving here anyway?"

Aldi stuttered, he couldn't possibly tell Bella the reason he had to move here and leave his girlfriend in Bandung.

"My father changed jobs. So I had to move here," Aldi's alibi. "But that's what makes me uncomfortable, Bel. I feel like she doesn't trust me anymore."

"She did that because she was afraid, afraid that you would be attracted to Jakarta girls. You have to be able to understand that. Girls are like that." Bella provides input for Aldi's relationship.

"Including you too?"
