..."Guys are also ordinary people who need certainty."...

"Next don't pick me up. I went home with Kiran. He had a car with him" Beby said as he removed the seatbelt that had been wrapped around his body. Now, Miko's car stops right in front of the Lomera Cafe.


"No. I'll pick you up."


"No need, brother. Later you even paced. I went home with Kiran. That way, I'm."


"But—"


"Sister, please, deh. I'm already big. I'm not the kid you used to have to shuttle everywhere."


Miko smiled wryly. His bead eyes stared fixedly at Beby's brown eyes. His palm moved gently rubbing the top of Beby's head.


"Yes, yeah. My sister is big now. Not a kid anymore."


Beby looked amusedly at the older brother. "Why, huh? I'm afraid I'm seeing you gini."


Not a second after Beby said that sentence, Aldef's hand that was still perched on his head suddenly pushed Beby's forehead using his index finger.


"Well, this is just my brother" Beby said, speaking out.


"If there's any news of me. Never use a cell phone! Inget!"


"Ready, dear Miki!"


"Loud of you, yes!"


Beby, who was still giggling with amusement because he managed to tease Miko, rushed down from the car, before the man returned to pinch her head. As soon as Beby got off, Miko's car then shot back up.


The maroon hoodie girl stepped casually into the outdoor area of Lomera Cafe. In the afternoon, surely Lola and Kiran choose an outdoor area to have a casual conversation. Not far away, Beby's vision managed to find the whereabouts of Lola and Kiran. However, there was a man with a back position Beby who was sitting at a table with his two best friends.


"Daren?"


The three pairs of eyes in one table then turned towards Beby.


"Finally the long-awaited came as well" said Kiran, along with Beby who took a sitting position to the right of Daren.


"Gee!" Beby was amazed, because there was already a glass of extra taro ice cube milkshake presented in front of him. "My favorite drink, huh."


"Long time, didn't you drink my cafe's homemade taro milkshakes?" asked Lola who answered a nod by Beby.


Beby put his glass glass after sipping a taro milkshake that feels so good on the tongue. After which, Beby turned his head towards Daren.


"There's Daren too, why come here?"


"Not talking about project webseries with Lola," replied Daren. "Fahri said, tomorrow we read, right?"


"Yes. Sorry, yeah, Ren, because I'm sick, our project is delayed."


Daren smiled faintly. "Look easy time. If so, I unplug it first, huh?"


"Lho, what, hurry?" ask Beby.


"He's a dariitadi here" said Lola.


"Yes." Yeah." Daren also agreed. "There's business running out of this, too. Bye, guys!"


Beby, Lola, and Kiran both waved their hands complete with a smile of sweetness towards Daren. Now, stay the three of them.


Beby again gulped down the milkshake taro in front of him.


"Si Daren can too, yes" said Lola, who was smiling herself.


"But, yes, from what I see, there are already girls who are targeted by Daren," said Kiran.


"Who?" ask Beby.


Lola and Beby looked seriously at Kiran, while Kiran returned the gazes of her two best friends in turn.


"Beci."


"Haha! Ngaco lo!" Beby reacted first.


"Seriously!" exclaim Kiran. "How Daren natap Beby, tuh, very different."


"Gue doesn't like Daren."


"That means Daren can do me, right?" lola Sahut.


"What do I think you're asking?" cynical Beby. "If you want, yes, take it. I'm not interested."


Kiran smiled in anguish. There was something he missed from Beby. "Keep, who are you interested in?"


"Aldef!" suhut Lola with a stir.


There was a momentary silence. The three girls at one table were throwing clumsy gazes at each other.


"Wrong, huh?" Lola broke the silence first. The girl seemed to have misbehaved because she felt too confident.


"Not one hundred percent wrong, anyway," said Kiran.


"You mean?" ask Lola.


No, guys. It's wrong for you to think that Kiran is a psychic. The girl was simply too sensitive to those closest to her. Especially Beby.


"Yes, By?" Lola looked curiously at Beby.


Beby let out a heavy breath. The maroon-wooded girl sipped her taro milkshake for a moment before she started to make a sound.


"Actually .., some haven't told you yet."


"I guessed it!" sahut Kiran was full of confidence. Lola looked at Kiran in surprise, while Beby rolled both eyes lazily. There was no doubt a degree of sensitivity in Kiran.


"What's? What haven't you told us?" ask Lola curiously.


"Gue's been shot by a guy" I'm Beby.


"Aldef?" sela Kiran's.


Beby nodded.


"Guabe!" (Great!) Lola was amazed. "Keep, you accept him?"


Beby shaking.


"Lo refuse?!"


Beby nodded again.


"Continue?"


Once again, a heavy sigh escaped from Beby's respiratory tract. "Gue hasn't given anything to Aldef."


"Lo crazy!" sulk Lola. "The son of the hanged. Take Aldef anyway!"


"Lo if you're after Daren, yeah, Daren!" concluded Kiran while looking at Lola irritated.


Lola smiled grimacingly. Featuring a neatly arranged row of graham teeth.


"That's hoodie, from him?" kiran asked as she stared fixedly at the maroon-red hoodie clad in Beby's body.


Beby nodded.


"Lo's eyes are very observant, yes, Kir," said Lola.


"Want me some advice?" Kiran asked Beby again, ignoring Lola's apology.


"What?" reply Beby.


"My advice, don't hang people for too long. You can think. But, don't take too long. If you are not ready to start a new relationship, say what it is. Or if Aldef wants, you can ask him to help move on. Perhaps, you are the type of person who moves on faster if there is a new person. But, well .., all decisions are in your hands. Not just girls, By. Guys are ordinary people who need certainty."


Lola gawked at Kiran's words. The rotation of his brain which was a bit slow from birth became slower now. Lola did not understand, what were Kiran and Beby talking about?


"Gue doesn't want to take any chances." After a long silence, Beby finally made a sound. "Gue doesn't want to hurt Aldef with me to accept him, but my heart is not completely separated from Arka."


"If so, don't" said Kiran. "Mending, you give room to your heart to rest. Love yourself. Let's all just shave it up."


"But, if Aldef is taken by another girl, how is it?" chirps Lola, making Kiran and Beby who were originally looking at each other, turn their eyes towards her.


"If emang Aldef loves Beby, he will not love the gap to other girls disturbing his heart" said Kiran.


***


Aldef sighed for a moment. His steps felt so heavy when he was about to enter the Rainbow Cafe located right in front of his apartment.


An hour ago, Celine sent a message that the girl wanted to meet there. Whether Celine knew Aldef lived in the Golden Apartment or not, Aldef did not know. Long enough Aldef thought to see Celine or not, but this is where he is now.


A long-haired girl straight in the south corner of the cafe waved her hand with a big smile towards Aldef. Yep. That girl is Celine. Celine Anastasia. Someone who was once so powerful in Aldef's heart. Or maybe, still?


"What are you talking about?" aldef asked as he sat opposite Celine.


Instead of answering, Celine asked, "What do you want to drink? Milk or coffee? You still like both, right? Which drinking mood?"


As hard as Aldef dodged, his heart still sent a signal that Aldef missed the girl in front of him.


"Whatever," replied Aldef lazily.


"Yes already. Well, then, I'm doing a latte coffe, huh? Let's just like me."


Celine moved out of her chair in excitement. It was a euphoria of happiness emanated from Celine.


Meanwhile, Aldef folded both arms, then he lowered his head deeply. Now, to whom should Aldef ask about the man who bears the title of queen in his heart?


Beby, the girl he had been waiting for the answer to, huh? Or Celine, a person from the past who still feels his love?
