The crane!!! The crane!!!
Devi instantly opened her eyes wide as the sound of her alarm went off to deafen her ears. Immediately after waking from his sleep, Devi immediately rushed off to take a bath.
Today he wants to go riding with Asep. Asep said he would teach Devi how to ride a horse and of course Devi was very enthusiastic about it.
After finishing getting ready, Devi immediately rushed out of the room to meet Asep.
As soon as he passed the room belonging to Alby's parents, Devi heard something from behind the door that was not closed tightly.
Because of his high curiosity, Devi decided to listen to their words for a while.
"Is there a guest visiting someone's house early in the morning like this?" ishwari asked Abhimanyu in a slightly irritated tone.
A guest? Whose guests?
"What's wrong? Laudya is not Alby's girlfriend, is it not natural that he visited here? Do not extend this matter, we as hosts must entertain our guests well" replied Abhimanyu.
Aunt Laudya here??
"I don't approve of Alby with Laudya" Ishwari said.
"Why indeed? Laudya is a kind, mature and intelligent woman. You don't see how good they both are? They have a lot of similarities," said Abhimanyu did not want to lose.
"From Laudya I prefer Devi. You don't see how attentive and unfortunately Alby is to Devi? I don't even see the same thing Alby did to Laudya. Alby loves Devi more than Laudya!" ishawari Reply.
"That's because Alby thinks Devi is suffering from PTSD. Try it otherwise, Alby definitely wouldn't have treated Devi that much."
"You hate Devi?" ishwari.
"No! I never hated Devi, I loved her as my daughter. But Alby is also my son, I just want him to have the perfect companion. Baby try you think. Isn't Devi better suited to be Alby's sister? Our daughter? Their age difference is very far apart besides that their natures are opposite to each other. Devi is still a child while Alby is a grown man. If they were together wouldn't Alby be miserable? Than a wife who takes care of her husband, does not Devi even look like a sister who nurtured her brother? Devi's nature is still childish and she's not mature at all, compared to Laudya, Devi is nothing. Marriage with both of these conflicting traits cannot make a long-lasting domestic relationship."
"That's your thinking, you know what's on Alby's mind."
"If Alby's thinking is different from mine then why didn't he tell Devi why he was here when an IGD doctor rarely had time to just go home? Alby doesn't tell me why because he thinks Devi is too young and Alby's problem is an adult problem, of course Alby doesn't tell Devi."
Enough's enough!!
Devi did not want to hear their conversation anymore. Their words made Devi slap and feel a tightness in her heart.
What Abhimanyu said is true. Viewed from any aspect, Laudya is far above everything and if viewed from the nature of Laudya is very mature far above it which every day can only whine, anger, and anger, play around and sometimes cry if his wish is not fulfilled. Compared to all that, is not the nature of Devi more worthy of being called the nature of a ten-year-old boy?
Upon arriving at the front porch he saw Alby who was joking with Laudya while picking some roses growing in the yard.
For a second Devi realized that what Abhimanyu said was true. Alby seems to fit Laudya better than he does. But moments later Devi also realized that she should not just give up! Devi already has Ishwari as her support and now she thinks of a way for Alby to turn to her and leave Laudya. But can he?
"Non Devi!!" call Asep while running towards Devi.
Devi who was aware of Asep's screams immediately turned her attention to Asep. Likewise with Alby who immediately turned his gaze towards Devi.
"Non Devi why so long? I've been waiting for non Devi since an hour ago," Asep said.
"You dare to nag me?!"
"Ah of course did not dare," Asep's grin.
"Basic!"
"Let's not let's go."
The two of them immediately rushed off on Asep's bicycle. But just as Devi was about to board it, Alby approached her and stopped her steps. Oh don't forget Laudya who also walked behind him.
"Where are you going?" ask Alby.
"Non Devi wants to ride a horse so I want to take you to the farm" Asep replied while Devi chose to stay quiet.
"Both?" ask Alby.
"Yes, den Alby want to come?" tawar Asep's.
"Come Sep go! We'll just go alone!" devi answered quickly before Alby could answer Asep's offer.
"Sep Road!!!" upset Devi while hitting Asep's shoulder so Asep immediately pedal his bike away.
Seeing Alby close to Laudya made Devi feel annoyed at once!
"Sep don't use my horse, got it?!" alby gave a warning.
"Good den."
Asep pedaled his bicycle and left the Alby residence for Abhimanyu's horse ranch.
Alby stared at Devi's departure as he sighed softly. He knew why Devi was acting like that to him, it was because Laudya was with him. Devi's dislike of Laudya seemed to be at the highest level.
"By I also want to ride a horse" Laudya said.
*****
Devi stared in amazement at the row of horses that were inside her stable neatly. The horses looked handsome and well groomed to make Devi's mood improve.
"Sep I want the white one," pointed Devi towards the pure white horse named Snow White.
"Well, let's take a moment to saddle the horse first" said Asep while preparing their riding equipment.
"I want the black By."
Devi immediately turned her back and she saw Laudya coming with Alby with Laudya struggling spoiled in Alby's arms.
Really sickening!
"It's finished non. Here goes up," said Asep interrupting.
"Sep you've got the saddle, saddle pad, bridle, stirrup and stomach cord properly, right?" alby reminded Asep.
"It's been den, I've installed it carefully and carefully," Asep replied steadily.
Without waiting any longer, Devi immediately rode the white horse with Asep's help while Alby watched him for a while until they walked out and installed his equipment on the horse chosen by Laudya.
Laudya who saw that also felt a little annoyed. Why is it that when he is focused Alby still towards Devi?!
"Sep, don't let go of the rope," said Devi warning Asep who walked beside him while holding the horse's harness.
"No, non Devi just calm down don't be afraid. Horses can detect fear. If non Devi is afraid, Snow White will feel the same way, too" Asep said.
"If you're angry Sep?"
"That's what danger is. Horses can provide a positive emotional response and can also be negative. If humans actually give a certain provocation to the horse, it can make it turn aggressive. This can be dangerous, because the horse will not hesitate to make excessive physical contact to attack with humans" explained Asep.
Hearing that Devi immediately inhaled air and exhaled slowly to control her emotions. He doesn't want to be hurt just because of his emotions.
"How exciting, right?"
"Yes Sep. Tomorrow again Sep?"
"Ready."
"Sep let's go there," pointed Devi at the pack of horses that were far away from her place.
"Don't, they are wild horses, if we approach them it's not impossible that Snow White becomes aggressive and causes non Devi to be in danger" Asep said.
"Accept you're not tired of walking?" reprimand Laudya who is now aligned with him without being accompanied by Alby. Apparently Laudya had trained on horseback so he didn't need Alby to watch her.
Devi turned her head back to see where Alby was and apparently Alby chose to sit on the wooden chair in front of the cage while watching him.
"Om Alby's not watching you, tan? It seems that Alby doesn't care about you if at any time this horse is aggressive and attacks you," sneered Devi who made Asep pull Devi's legs slowly so as not to provoke.
"Unfortunately I've been trained and there's no need to trouble others to protect me. I'm an adult woman not a child who needs parental supervision" Laudya said, which made Devi instantly emotional.
"Non be calm, don't be provoked by emotion" Asep said.
"Just calm down, Sep, I won't be angry. I came here to have fun instead of watching a love drama clapping one hand" Devi replied.
"Who do you mean love clapping one hand? Me?"
Devi flicked her shoulders indifferently and did not care.
Alby, who saw the two go hand in hand, was even more worried, afraid that if they had a fight that would affect the horse they were riding. Soon Alby immediately picked up one more horse and rushed after them.
"Alby is already my girlfriend and soon we will definitely get married, is that enough to break your perception if my love is one-handed?"
"Tante Laudya seems to like fantasies," said Devi slowly but can still be heard by Laudya.
"What did you say?!!"
"What?!"
Out of annoyance, Laudya immediately spurred his horse to narrow its distance with Devi. Asep had tried many times to avoid Laudya with his horse's harness. Without Asep guessing, Devi instead released Asep's hand from the horse's harness.
"Take Sep off if you don't want to get hurt" Devi said as she learned of Laudya's bad intentions.
"Non!!!" asep shouted at Devi who was now away.
Both of them were driving their horses at high speed. In Devi's heart he felt a little afraid because he did not know how to control the horse, but once he saw Laudya his fear instantly disappeared. He can't just give up!
Devi can see Alby chasing her but she doesn't care.
"Dev stop!!!!" alby shouted from a distance.
"Laudya stop it right now!!" alby shouted again as he continued to chase after the two.
"Pick your broken arm or leg? Or if you want I can grant both," Laudya said as she pulled Devi's horse harness as soon as she got closer.
The perceptive Devi immediately kept her horse's harness out of Laudya's reach until Laudya lost her balance and her horse's reins were violently pulled, causing Laudya's horse to lift both of its front legs into the air and caused Laudya to fall.
"Laudya!!!!!"

Don't forget to leave a trace;)
