CHASING THE LOVE OF THE TEACHER
The Unfulfilled Love

Amanda had just returned to her room and finished talking with her parents about Cilla, Arjuna and Rudi. Look at the wall clock in the room. Almost 10 in the morning.

Amanda grabbed the phone on the nightstand that was being recharged. There were 3 missed phone calls with Jovan's name there. It turns out that the guy who often makes Amanda pounding sends a message also for her.

Jovan: please call me as soon as possible. P-E-N-T-I-N-G !!!

Amanda knitted her eyebrows. Between his deg and worry, he immediately pressed the call to Jovan's number.

“Amanda !” hearing that voice calling on Sunday morning made Amanda's hands tremble slightly.

“Again anyway lo, phone not picked up, message not read-read. Just woke up, huh ?” cerocos Jovan without giving Amanda a chance to answer.

“Newly finished breakfast with papa and mama all chatting. Very excited, the hell !” Amanda tried to make her voice sound normal, but her heart was beating.

“Gue want to go to elo place now. You're not going anywhere, are you?”

“Why ?” Amanda knitted her eyebrows together and bit her lower lip.

“Mau ngajak his sister Mr. Arjuna Hartono dating,” said Jovan while chuckling.

“No guests who want to test doang !” say Amanda with a jutek tone.

“Eh really, I have very important news for you. Please yes, I can go to elo's house now ?” a clear tone was heard from Jovan's voice.

“But don't want PHP or ask for food, right ?”

“Not both, but immediately want to apply for Pak Juna proposing to Cilla. Directly plug the gas, do not need to use long-time heating.”

“Udah I said that ogah quickly married same guy model elo. Not yet established, money is still asking for the same bo-nyok. Want to feed my wife with love doang ? Not full, even fighting continues,” Amanda's tone of voice still sounded jutek.

“Basic chick matere,” ledek Jovan. “There's no rejection, I'm way to elo's house now,”

Without waiting for Amanda to answer, Jovan hangs up. He himself was getting ready to take a shower and dressed neatly after getting a message from Cilla.

Jovan rushes down and hopes his parents haven't come home so there's no need to linger interrogated before Amanda's home. But his wish turned out to be unfulfilled, because as soon as he opened the main door, his parents had just gotten out of the car after morning exercise.

“Where are you going?” mami Joan, who had just gotten out of the car, asked her only son.

“Mau's dating,” Jovan said he approached his mom and kissed her cheek as usual.

“His sister's husband-to-be Cilla ?” mom Joan's eyes are squeaking.

“Not yet, new pdkt,” Jovan said while chuckling.

“Mami does not agree. It's the same you torture yourself, every time you have to see Cilla and her future husband.”

“Jovan is not hurt, mam, because it turns out Jovan's feelings for Cilla are nothing more than a friend not a feeling of love between a man and a woman.”

“But mami and papi.”.

“Stupid, life and death are in the hands of God, mom. Name's Amanda. Jovan is also just starting to approach, not officially dating, has not thought to want to marry all. Jovan still wants to continue school and make papi and mami proud,”

Mami Joan just sighed. Not long papi Revan got out of the car and had heard the debate between his wife and son.

“Why can he be so good as her husband-to-be sister Cilla ? You're not on a particular mission with Cilla, are you?” ask Papi Revan while laughing softly.

“If the matter of cockiness is a secret of the heart, Papi. Jovan also does not know why he could be interested in Amanda who incidentally is his sister-in-law Cilla. Maybe the soul mate of Jovan and Cilla is not as a lover let alone a husband and wife, but a soul mate as a sister who takes care of each other.”

“Right courtship, don't mess with girls people,” message papi Revan.

“Thankyou papi's. Drug mami..” Jovan waved his hand and headed to his parked motorcycle not far away.

“So papi give permission ?” joan's mother's face was visibly irritated when she heard her husband as if to support their son. Jovan himself has passed to Amanda's house.

“The name is also new business, Mam. Just let Jovan feel how the struggle to get love and fall awake when dating. All this time the focus was only on Cilla, it was because they had known since birth. Let him learn with others who might make him a real man and more mature.”

Although her heart was upset, Joan's mother finally chose to shut up and obey her husband's words.

While at her home, Amanda looks restless behind the clothes in her closet. It feels like it would be different to welcome Jovan, but embarrassed to look special when Jovan is now nobody.

Finally Amanda chose knee-length jeans and a slightly loose t-shirt in light blue so that the impression is bright but not too formal. Amanda chose to wait in the room, as if she didn't know Jovan was coming. Can be tempted by papa and his mother who did give freedom to Amanda and Arjuna about boyfriend.

About fifteen minutes later Amanda's bedroom door was knocked. His heart thumped even more because he believed that this call was due to the arrival of Jovan.

“There are guests under search non Amanda,” Bik Isah said as Amanda opened her room door.

“Awhile Down, Bik. Please tell me to wait in the living room first, yes.”

“Good, Non.”

Amanda stood behind the door of her closed room. He took a breath and threw it away slowly a few times while holding his chest that was pounding even more.

“Quiet Amanda, relax. Don't let Jovan see that elo groggy met him,” Amanda said to herself before her hand opened the room door.

Arriving in the living room, Jovan looks to be fiddling with his phone. A smile continued to expand on the lips of the former handsome ketos. Her charm really bewitched Amanda.

“Ngapain in the morning has made a scene ?” amanda grumbled as she sat opposite Jovan.

With just a smile, Jovan wakes up and moves in to sit next to Amanda.

“Eh wants to do something close,” Amanda immediately raised her hand and was about to shift.

“Yeah Amanda, I want to discuss about the message sent by Cilla,” lips Jovan directly manyun with an annoyed face.

“I won't do anything too, except elo give permission,” he continued while chuckling.

Jovan thrust his phone that was already open. Amanda frowned, there were photos of Cilla, Arjuna and a couple that Cilla made sure that they were Jovan's parents. Her male figure faces eleven twelve with Jovan.

“What does it mean ?” Amanda looked over with her eyebrows clutched.

“Read first until finished napa ? That's the message that Cilla sent,” Jovan pointed at his phone with his index finger.

Cilla scrolled the phone screen and there was a message sent by Cilla.

“Jo, I accidentally met bo-nyok elo in Ancol. Catch me again engrossed in courtship with prospective husband 😂😂😂. I also know Mas Juna as my husband. Nyokap you had put the face of the jutek (but not as ugly as the face of the elo if again bete 🤣🤣🤣) and it looks like aunt Joan does not accept with my words.

What to say, I do love Mas Juna 😍😍 (do not frown lo ! Elo's face becomes more ugly, Amanda can cancel the crush)

Goodbye fight Bro 💪💪 At least I have opened the way to ortu elo, live how the struggle elo deh..Sama do not forget, my future husband has not been one hundred percent blessed elo so his beloved sister's boyfriend… Oppa hihihi….

Amanda returned the phone to her owner and shifted a little of her seat while picking up the sofa cushion.

“Kok was silent anyway,” grumbled Jovan. “No happy or sad reaction or anything like.”

“What should I do ?” ask Amanda while looking at Jovan with a lazy face.

“Manda, honestly I've never really expressed love to girls. If the same Cilla feel like a regular chat, there is no special time let alone use candle light dinner all events. So I kind of-somewhat oon compose the words love.”

Amanda just glanced still with her lazy face made Jovan so misbehaved and rubbed his nape.

“My feeling to elo is not just PHP. I also do not know when I like elo, but I guarantee that I do not play games. I love you, Manda. Want to be my girlfriend ?” Jovan with her words of seduction slightly approached Amanda while putting on a cute pretentious face and a wide smile.

“Gue did not want,” Amanda replied with a flat face returning Jovan's gaze.

Jovan retreated back with a look of disbelief. Looks like yesterday Amanda replied to the codes Jovan gave her about her heart.

“Kok changed ? Why ? No dating first yes same ortu elo?” a spate of questions instantly uttered Jovan with a frown.

“Not,” Amanda said with a thin smile.

“Because not given to you brother elo?” in a curious tone, Jovan couldn't wait to hear the reason for Amanda's refusal.

“Not.”

Jovan sighed and threw his body onto the back of the sofa.

“Can I not know the reason at all?” asked Jovan in a lethargic tone.

“Because I have not believed in my same elo feelings,” said Amanda without wanting to buy time.

“Why ? Does my face look like a lie ? Is it because of the way I like to talk?”

“Why if the name is wholesale ? Elo is no longer shopping at the grocery store,” Amanda grumbled.

“Because I'm really, really curious.”

Jovan turned his seat tilted towards Amanda and took out a sofa cushion for his hand-pulled plinth that was used to support his chin.

“Gue is not sure about the feeling of elo to me,” Amanda said with a sigh, glimpsed Jovan a glance that this time does not look will refute it.

“Elo likes Cilla for almost a lifetime elo, then suddenly there is no wind, rain let alone a storm know-know-know elo say like to me who will status to be his sister-in-law Cilla. I'm not sure if my feelings for me are purely because of me. A fraction of a percent there is still a possibility that this is all because in small hearts you still want to be close to Cilla, so I'm the one who elo choose to be a girlfriend.”

Jovan sighed while closing his eyes for a moment. He changed his sitting position straight back.

“Gue is not guilty if you have such thoughts. I am sure that Mr. Juna also has the same mind so I do not agree that I am the same elo. Bokap I just made sure too when I say I want to go to the house elo. I really understand Amanda and if I was in the elo position, eighty-five percent I would also have the same feeling.”

Jovan sighed again and remained silent for a while. Amanda just shut up and played the end of the couch cushion.

“It would be hard to believe that my feelings that seem to be passionate about Cilla until I was willing to wait almost nine years to be able to apologize from the girls, suddenly turned into likes. But as I once told elo, when I knew Cilla chose Pak Juna to harbor her heart even her future husband, I did not feel the name of heartache at all, jealousy is heartbroken. Honestly, I was sad because I felt I was going to lose a friend. Elo know for himself, where there is a prospective husband who let his future wife stay close to a guy who once said he liked his future wife.”

Jovan looked at Amanda who was still busy playing her hand on the sofa cushion. Looks like Jovan needs to fight even harder to prove his love. Not just Amanda, but Arjuna and Jovan's parents.

“Gue won't make an elo to answer yes today too, Manda. But I will prove that my feelings are not an escape from Cilla let alone I am the same elo for reasons to stay close to Cilla.”

Jovan got up from the sofa with a bitter smile.

“Thank you for the time you have given me to listen to my heart. One day if I still have a chance, I will definitely come again. And I hope that by then you can accept my feelings. I'm saying goodbye, Manda.”

Without waiting for any answer from Amanda, Jovan walks out and not long after leaving the Hartono family home on his motorcycle.

Amanda's still gawking at her place. No more effort what did Jovan do to conquer Amanda's heart ? Even Jovan wasn't waiting for Amanda to respond to her lengthy remarks.

Amanda took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. May Jovan really prove his point will come back once again with his love for Amanda. And Amanda herself hopes that her heart will be able to give a YES answer to Jovan's love statement.
