Diamond Luster
Chapters 2. Meeting with a haughty man



Using his grandfather's old bicycle, Diamond passed through the undulating streets between the vast tea plantations . The smile of the sweet girl was always greeting the residents who passed by her.


Diamonds speed up their bikes . The straight long haired girl was already impatiently meeting her lover who was waiting for her in an ordinary place.


From the back , the proud-looking young man drove his red car carelessly regardless of the people passing and passing by using the same road . For the young man, he is the ruler . Residents who see it can only resign and succumb because they do not want to deal with the driver of the car, the only son of the plantation owner as well as the tea factory managed by local residents.


Stars race against time . The thick-browed young man had wanted to quickly pick up the girl of his dreams and introduce her to his mama . The speed of his car accelerated and cut the road in front of him.


The diamond that was busy pedaling his bike was made shocked and could not balance itself when a red car overtakes from behind.


"Itahhhhh...." Diamonds fell on the sharp pebbled road, screaming in pain.


The star was also shocked and stopped his vehicle and went down to see what he had done.


"Are you okay ?" the question is ordinary without the intention of helping the girl who was hit by him to stand up.


"Eh...You're blind, aren't you?. Don't you see how I'm doing?" fierce Diamonds endure pain when it wants to stand.


"Oh okay I understand, you mean this right?" Star reaches into his pants pocket takes out a black wallet . While Diamond was busy fixing the location of his bike and cleaning the gravel attached to his knee until injured and bleed.


"You take this . I think that's enough for the cost of treating the wounds on your feet as well as for the cost of repairing your damaged bike"


"What do you mean?" fierce Diamond did not want to receive the hundreds of banknotes that the proud men presented in front of him.


"Why? . Still less?" The star again opened the wallet and took out all the cash he had.


"This is more than enough" the haughty Star handed the money directly into the hands of the woman he had just met.


"We break even" he said casually and turned around to ride his car.


"Wait" cried Diamond stopping the footsteps of the most haughty young man he met .


"What else is it? . What I gave it was more than enough" said the star, challenging the sharp look of the girl who had been teetering near him.


"Bring your money back . I don't need as much money as you can give me . I just want you to apologize for causing me harm" said Berlian while handing back the money to the one who had it rudely.


"Sorry?" The stars smiled cynically.


"My money is worth more to you than just an apology. There will be no words that come out of my mouth" replied the unmoved Star in error.


"Is that so?" Diamond smiled cynically and went back to taking the money that was in the hands of the Stars.


"This money doesn't cost me anything"


The Star branch hardened, its eyes reddened in anger, its fingers clenched hard to hit something when Diamond threw his face with the money he had given earlier.


"It's better for my wounds to rot than for me to take your money" said Diamond, then ride his bike back.


"Whoever you are, you must be sorry you've ever acted rudely with the Primary Star" the young man shouted to warn the girl who had dared insult him arrogantly.


Unsatisfied star vents her heartache . If only today he had no very important business . Can be sure, the girl has come out today also from the plantation area owned by her family.


The star's steps stopped when his eyes were focused on a book lying right where the girl he hit fell. Actually he didn't get dizzy. But Bintang was curious, who knew it belonged to the girl who could be used for revenge.


"The Rainbow Scratches "his mumbles reading the front cover of a book with red roses .

"Lian where, uh?. This hour has not come yet" said the handsome and well-built young man.


"The ladder!"


The young man's smile immediately heard a very familiar voice calling his name.


"Lian.." exclaimed the young man with sparkling eyes welcoming the arrival of the idol.


"Lian, what's wrong with you?" the smile on the look on Rangga's face turned frantic when he noticed his lover who was limping while guiding his bicycle.


"When I got here, my bike crashed into the car. I fell, and my knee was hurt. Bad, anyway" explained Diamond.


"Other times you be careful dong, Lian . It's a good thing that only your knee is injured" Omel Rangga.


"Here, let me treat your wounds, later the infection again.." continued Rangga showed his attention.


Rangga said her lover was sitting on a large rock on the edge of the lake sheltered by a tall pine tree and Diamond's bicycle rested on another tree.


Rangga immediately crouched down in front of Diamond while taking out a handkerchief from his pants pocket . The young ash handkerchief was previously wet at the end with well water and then smeared onto the knee of the wounded and bleeding diamond.


"Awwwww" Diamond grimaces withstanding pain.


"It hurts ?" The Rangga looked up to ensure the answer to Diamond.


"Yes" Diamond replied.


"You hold it, the pain won't be long" said Rangga, he again cleaned up the blood marks that began to freeze and cover the wound on the knee of his girl . Diamond watched with the attention that Rangga showed her. Diamonds are so lucky to have a lover like Rangga . Rangga is a good young man and loves him sincerely even if there is a difference in degrees between them .


"Already" exclaimed Rangga disperse his reverie. And, Diamond just realized his knee was wrapped with a handkerchief owned by Rangga earlier.


"Gga, how's your hand?. How, wrapped in my knee anyway ?" ask her.


"You keep it" replied Rangga while getting up and sitting next to the Diamond . Diamond immediately smiled and leaned his head on the shoulder of his lover.


For a moment the couple chose to quietly enjoy the afternoon sunlight that bounced beautifully on the surface of the calm lake water.


"Lian, are you willing to be my wife?" the word suddenly slid from Rangga's mouth without hesitation.


"What?" Diamond rose up shocked and could not believe what he had just heard.
