A Flick of Asa For Love
CHAPTER 31

...***...

A few days passed. Vina often visited Nathan's house for reasons of seeking entertainment and needed the spirit of Nathan. Widya tries to understand Nathan's closeness to Vina, though her heart is jealous. Nathan always reassures himself, if Nathan only intends to comfort Vina who is heartbroken.

“Hai, Wid. Tumben. Where's nathan?” ask Cindy who was suddenly in front of him. Widya is sitting alone in the classroom, waiting for the lesson to start and waiting for Nathan.

“Obviously, again the same lecturer,” said Widya not excited.

“Gue listen, Nathan's ex-fiance is here, huh?” Cindy Fishing.

“Lo know where?” Widya clung and asked back. Wonder why Cindy suddenly found out about Vina.

“Yes know, dong. You do not know that this news has spread throughout the campus residents. In fact, someone had seen Nathan at a fancy restaurant with a woman. Could be her ex-fiance, right?” cindy tried to provoke again.

It's not Cindy's name if she doesn't know about Nathan's latest news. When he heard the news of Vina's arrival, he felt that a fresh breeze was coming towards him, as if fate was on his side. He will not miss this opportunity to re-launch his action to separate Nathan from Widya.

“Someone said her ex-fiance is beautiful. Yes, no, anyway?” lure Cindy again.

“Iya, very pretty even. Far from me who is just a child of a cake seller,” Widya monologue with her heart.

“Wid ... hello!” Cindy shook her palms in front of Widya's face.

“Eh, what's up?” Widya was awakened from her daydream.

“Elo was invited to talk instead of daydreaming,” grumbled Cindy.

“Sory, Cind. I'm not focusing anymore.” Widya just smiled. A stiff smile that adorned his face.

Cindy who was satisfied because Widya began to be provoked was happy. His struggle to separate Nathan and Widya begins to meet a bright spot.

“Remember, Wid. If I can't have Nathan, don't dream of having him! I will destroy your relationship as badly as possible, and I will separate the two of you as far as possible,” Cindy's inner self with a sly grin on her lips.

When Cindy wanted to continue her action again, suddenly failed because the first matkul lecturer came. It really made Cindy growled. The reason, just a little more poison that he spread to Widya's brain began to spread. The girl could only snort mischievously, but also felt quite satisfied due to her cunning today.

While Widya who began to worry because of the words of Cindy was just silent pensive, even the material delivered by the lecturer there was nothing she could accept. His heart is worried at the moment. However, Widya still tries to understand that the closeness between Nathan and Vina is only a sense of humanity and support to a friend.

...****...

Today Widya's course is only one, but it is able to make the girl feel tired. Not because of the task given by the lecturer, but because his heart was filled with disturbing emotions.

When Widya began to step foot out of class, she was surprised by the existence of Nathan—sang lover who some days made her heart oscillate.

“Sayang ... Kok, you're shocked that way, anyway? Kaya saw the ghost,” kekeh Nathan while rubbing Widya's head.

“E—no, coke. I used to,” elak Widya covered her shock. Then, continue the steps accompanied by Nathan beside him.

“Where, was the same dosage? Smoothly, no?” Widya switched the conversation with a smile that seemed to make her happy even though her heart was worried.

“Alhamdulillah, smoothly dong.” Nathan answered proudly.

“Where? Great, right, me? Who was it, dong, his girlfriend ... Widya Princess Esmeralda,” she continued with a naughtiness.

“Idih .. narcissistic!” Widya squinted her eyes, but kept smiling.

“Yah .. so I'm not your darling, dong.” Nathan said with a sad expression.

Widya who felt anxious with Nathan's facial expression stopped her footsteps then stood right before the man and cupped Nathan's handsome face with her palm. “Iya .. yes .... Nathan Putra Lesmana, the only handsome man I love after Dad.”

"Not the only one, dong, if that's it." Nathan snatched, pretending to sulk. However, it cannot be denied if he feels happy to hear it from Widya's lips directly.

"Oh, Daddy's jealous time?" sergeant Widya. His forehead was in disbelief.

Nathan widened his smile, then grabbed his girl's hand and grasped it tightly.

“I'm just kidding. Yuk, to the canteen! With sweet words you just made my stomach so hungry.” With a happy feeling Nathan led Widya to the cafeteria. They also walked hand in hand.

“Idih, so gaje, hell! Tell me if you're hungry.” Widya smiled at the absurd behavior of her lover.

“Honey, later accompany me to find a gift for Mama, yes,” pinta Nathan on his girlfriend.

“Today Mama Liana's birthday?” widya asked with a smile and a nod from Nathan.

“Ih, really, you don't talk from yesterday, anyway?” Widya hits Nathan's arm irritated, having just been told about Liana's birthday today. If he knew from yesterday, he planned to make a cake for his girlfriend's mother.

“Nathan.” Devina calls Nathan out in a loud voice, bringing the attention of the people in the canteen to her, including Harsa, Edo, Zakir, Karin, and Kartika. Coincidentally they were there too.

Nathan, surprised by Vina's presence, immediately releases his hand from Widya. Vina accidentally comes to Nathan's campus because she wants to meet Nathan, while showing herself to Nathan's friends.

“Vina ...,” murmured witty, but can still be heard by Widya.

Vina who saw Nathan's shock moved from her seat, then approached Nathan to hug the man tightly.Nathan who had just realized from his behavior broke Vina's embrace.

“Vin, this is Indonesia, not Singapore. You can't just play hug!” nathan said softly which was answered with a nod and a bright smile from Vina.

“Sorry, I forgot." Vina chuckles shyly, "Yuk, sit there!” take Vina to her place. However, it was immediately rejected by Nathan.

“We sat there aja,” pointed Nathan at a table filled to his five best friends.

“Later to know my friends,” he continued, then walked to a table filled by Harsa, Edo, Zakir, Karin and Kartika. Leaving Widya who was transfixed due to Vina's presence. However, after walking a few steps, Nathan realized that Widya was behind.

“Honey, come! How are you quiet, anyway?” Nathan turns to call Widya, but Widya's eyes still focus on Vina's spoiled hand on Nathan's arm.

Widya smiled painfully following Nathan's steps towards the table. However, after reaching the table, when Widya wanted to sit next to Nathan, Vina immediately grabbed a seat chosen by Widya. Also inevitably Widya relented to choose to sit between Karin and Kartika which was a little far from Nathan. It did not escape the attention of Karin and Kartika who were upset to see Vina's behavior.

“Guys, recognize this Vina! My best friend from small.” Nathan introduces Vina to his five best friends.

“Hay. I'm Vina, greetings, yes.” Vina introduced herself very sweetly.

After a brief introduction by Vina, the girl remained spoiled on Nathan's arm without thinking about Widya's feelings of being hurt by her actions. The five friends also looked at and were concerned about Widya.

“What are you doing here, Vin?” nathan asked softly.

“Why does Nathan speak, 'me you', not 'lo me' on Vina? Usually Nathan never said formally with his best friend. Are they they really that close?” inner Widya.

“Nath, today's Aunt Liana's birthday, right? I want to make sure you find a gift for Aunt Liana.” Vina was deliberately wanted to show everyone, especially Widya, that she knew Nathan's family.

“I ran out of campus plan to go directly to the mall. Looking for a gift for Mama. Yeah, right, sweetheart?” Nathan sets his sights on Widya asking for approval, which only Widya's nods and sweet smile answer that always makes Nathan's heart calm when he sees her.

Unlike Vina who squeezed the edges of her floral dress because she was upset to hear Nathan's affectionate call on Widya.

“Ya, already. Then we go together. No papa, right, Wid?” ask Vina to Widya.

“Yes, honey, no papa, right, if Vina comes with us? Poor thing, Vina does not know Jakarta.” area Nathan added.

“Yes, no papa, really. So we can have fun with.” Widya said calmly despite the heart feeling sliced. While the five best friends can only be spectators without being able to comment anything.

...****...

After saying goodbye to his five best friends, Nathan, Widya, and Vina go to the biggest Mall in Jakarta to find gifts for Liana

“Honey, about Mama we buy what gift, yes?” nathan asked Widya.

“What if we buy a bag? You see, Mama often nemenin Papa business trips, and Mama also likes to gather with her fellow tourists." Widya gave me advice. He recalled, if Liana had indeed told him that he often accompanied Daniel for business trips and told him about his fellow artists.

However, after arriving in front of the bag store branded advice Widya brushed aside by Vina.

“If my advice, anyway, Nath. I think we buy Aunt Liana fancy jewelry, deh. Do you remember when we were Junior High? You ever give a bag to aunt Lian, I never, tuh, see aunt Lian use that bag, I said, even during a business trip or meet my Mama who is also a social friend I have never seen aunty wear the bag. Fear the bag you buy does not match her taste.” Vina tries to thwart Nathan's plan to buy Liana a bag, as the plan is Widya's idea. Actually Vina knew the reason Liana never wore that bag. Because the bag was the first gift from his beloved son. Liana was afraid of ruining the gift from her son. Therefore, Liana chose to wear it at a certain moment.

After hearing the explanation from Vina who felt right by Nathan. The man took Widya and Vina to the jewelry store in the mall.

“Honey, Vina bener. We'll buy some jewelry, okay?" Widya nodded while smiling stiffly. "Ehm ... What do you think we're buying, yeah, for Mama? Here the model is very much,” asked Nathan on his girl.

“Buy Mama aja necklace, Nath! Mama must be beautiful if you wear a necklace,"

“Do not!” prevent Vina fast. “Tante Lian is prettier if you wear a diamond ring. Aunt Liana, right, a socialite woman, not a village woman. So, it's better to wear a diamond ring." Vina deliberately pressed the word ‘kampungan', so that Widya knew that in fact the girl did not deserve to be next to Nathan. Only he deserves to be by Nathan's side Lesmana Son.

“Iya, really. Mama is more beautiful and prefers to wear a diamond ring," Nathan said while paying attention to the jewelry display.

Vina who felt Nathan following her advice smiled faintly, mocking towards Widya. While Widya can only exhale heavily.

“Patience, Wid! Vina was so because she was heartbroken, after all she had known Nathan's family since childhood. It's natural that your girlfriend is more justifying her words.” Widya is monologuing herself. Trying to shake off the feelings of annoyance and jealousy that afflicted him at this time.

One word for Vina, gangs. 🙄
