First Night of Cana
Joddy and Lian

"Bang, I didn't mean to hurt Kana. I was just warning her not to get too close to you, she's already married Bang!" Lian defended herself as Joddy rebuked about her words at the cafe the other day.

"What is Lian's goal? Just so you know, Kana I've considered like my own sister, she never even considered me more than a sister."

Lian looked at Joddy skeptically. "Sister? Bang, the layman once saw also knew he wasn't just your sister! You treat her more than just a friend let alone a sister!"

Joddy sighed then pinched the base of his nose for a moment. "It's up to what your perception of me and Kana is. But don't repeat that talk to Kana again, she doesn't know anything."

Joddy stared at Lian sharply. " Who are you setting me up?"

Getting a cynical answer from Joddy, Lian's heart felt slashed. Joddy who is in front of him at this time is not the usual Joddy. Joddy who will usually look at him warmly, throwing jokes and even a crisp and crisp muddle. But the one in front of him is currently a different Joddy, and it's all because of that spoiled girl. "Thou shalt not play with my feelings! After what we've been doing all this time!"

"Do what? Eating together, walking together, attention and rumble?"

"Bang ak -"

"You ask all the girls in the office who's never been treated like that?" sela Joddy cut the words that would come out of Lian's lips that looked at Joddy in disbelief. Lian knows, Joddy is known to be a bad boy in Lian's office also knows the lunge he in the world of romance. But somehow Lian felt Joddy had changed when she was with him. Every day at the office if there's time joddy always spend with him. So don't blame Lian for thinking Joddy changed? Is that just his feeling?

"You play with my feelings, Bang!" Lian's eyes started to glaze over, she didn't expect Joddy to talk to her that long.

"I never promised anything to you, did I?" reply Joddy. He knew his words had hurt Lian. But it's better this way than Lian expected more of him.

"Can't you open your heart to me?" Lian still won't give up.

"Sorry Lian. Opening your heart is not easy at least now. So, for now I'm more comfortable myself." Finals! It's the final answer from Joddy.

Lian bit her lower lip, tears involuntarily dripping from the corner of her eyes. "Is it all because of Kana?"

Joddy breathed a tired sigh. " Kana has nothing to do with my life Lian. Please don't bring him into this matter."

Lian looked at Joddy, just look! In fact, right now he's still trying to protect that damn woman. "You're saying there's nothing to do with it, Bang? How does it have nothing to do if every moment you have in mind is just Kana?"

Joddy was speechless, what Lian said was not entirely wrong. He always thought about Kana. But really Joddy never thought to take it from Adrian. As long as Adrian still treats Kana well and doesn't hurt her, then Joddy will stick to his capacity. But to open his heart, Joddy can't yet. His heart still could not accept another name so Joddy left it empty, empty and uninhabited, so that easily the shadow of Kana would dwell there.

"It's up to you to think about me, but please Lian, don't bring Kana into this matter." Joddy said in a pleading tone to make Lian completely distrustful if Joddy was still protecting Kana.

"What the hell is a Bang that isn't in me that Kana has? What difference does it make to me like him, Bang? What's?" Lian was almost frustrated as she asked, her heart ached and she was too tired to understand Joddy.

Joddy stared fixedly at Lian, trying to give understanding to the girl in front of him seemed futile and wasted time because given any understanding Lian would stick to her stance. Think of the enemy.

"Their?" Joddy looked at Lian for a moment. "However, Kana never forced her feelings on anyone" Joddy added. Calm but piercing.

Lian gasped at the words of Joddy who struck the recesses of her heart. It hurts, it hurts a lot for him. "Team you Bang!" Lian crashing the table made the cafe visitors stare at them, Lian no matter that she chose to move from her seat.lalu rushed away leaving Joddy who looked at her guiltily. But it's better this way than Lian will get hurt even deeper.

It's been a long time Kana and Adrian not quality time both so

after work Adrian plans to take Kana for a walk, shopping and watching. Well, think of it instead for the two of them being seized by Adrian's heaped work and they should be preoccupied with affairs that require their more attention.

"You're like a permanent resident here, Na."

Kana raised her head and looked towards the voice. There was Joddy in front of him smiling warmly. " Sister Joddy going home?" Kana's gaze fell on the backpack that was on Joddy's back.

" Yes, nyari kopi see there are prospective scholars here. " Joddy held up a cup containing his favorite latte.

Kana smiled shyly. " It could be, so shame. Joddy's brother's coming to my graduation next month?"

Joddy sat on the empty seat in front of Kana. " Is this a question or an invitation?"

"The Invitation is Brother. Anyway Brother must come, invite Ferddy or invite Sister Lian can also really you?"

Joddy grimaced in heart. Take Lian? See, even Kana was not angry even though it was said to be cheap by Lian she still invited Lian to come to her graduation. But it felt impossible after what he said last afternoon to Lian.

" It can be arranged." Joddy smiled then looked at the light snack in front of Kana. " Don't eat the beginning Na snack, a lot of micinnya, often," Joddy reprimanded but his outstretched hand plucked the contents of the light snack and ate it.

"The end of food is already on the abis," said Kana pointed towards the food stand that had begun to be tidied up by the owner.

"Yes understand it's already hours of work," said Joddy coolly eating snacks Kana. Kana grieving, see who told her not to eat too much MSG food?

"By the way, where's Ian? Really long?" Kana's eyes searched towards the entrance.

"So it's just sorted out in a minute. Take it easy, mall will close the night."

" Kak Joddy knows I want to watch at the mall with Brother Ian?"

"That's it, the guy he asked me what movie is booming just as much as what gift suits you," said Joddy to make Kana grudge. Ah, her husband is indeed bad if the romantic affairs know he's new films, the work person he's been all work, work and work besides working Kana in bed too anyway!

Kana shook her head softly just as a girl crunched in and walked up to their table.

" Little woman!" shouted the old purple haired girl then suddenly she picked up the latte cup in front of Joddy unscrewing the lid and dumping the contents onto Kana's face . Just Kana and reflex standing from her sitting looked at Lian in disbelief

"Lian! What the hell are you!" joddy snaps and pulls Kana away from Lian but Lian's nimble hand first pulls Kana's hair and pushes her down.

"Lo Crazy?!!" exclaiming Joddy looked at Lian sharply then helped Kana whose hair was wet by the latte, fortunately it was cold.

Lian smiled cynically. " It's appropriate for a woman who likes to cheat."

Lian then clapped her hands as if gesturing for the not-so-much canteen visitor to notice her.

"Listen all!" lian shouted loudly, several pairs of eyes pointed at them. " This woman is the wife of Mr. Adrian and she has had an affair with her husband's best friend, you are witnesses today!" Lian blatantly pointed at Kana who was silent from confusion and shock.

"Lo Lian's crazy!" maki Joddy then pulled Kana's hand away from Lian who was staring at them in disbelief.
