When Rania went inside, her eyes immediately sat in front of the hazel eyes that she had not seen for a long time. Instantly, it made Rania's eyes glaze over.
"Ra, why are you staying here?" dian asked who found Rania just standing at the entrance without following the other friends who had preceded her.
"It's okay. You go first with the others. I need a minute."
After saying that, Rania also walked towards the owner of hazel eyes that had been staring unintentionally with her.
Dian who did not know that they turned out to be a restaurant with Khanif, just looked towards Rania street. From there he suspected that Rania must have gone to Khanif.
Not wanting to make all her friends know, Dian as quickly as possible distract them by taking them to the place they have been ordered as quickly as possible.
"Come, come. We're going there fast. I can't wait to order the most delicious food in this restaurant," he said, embracing his girlfriend as he accelerated his footsteps.
On the other hand, Rania is getting closer to Khanif. Arriving there, he greeted Khanif with the best smile he had.
One of the men who sat in front of Khanif who felt familiar with Rania's face was finally sure what crossed his mind at this time.
"You're Rania, right?"
Rania nodded her head slowly at the sign.
"Loh, you're Rania?" ask another person with a look of disbelief.
Because, he used to know that Rania was a fat and rough-faced girl with a lot of acne on her face. But what is this? The girl standing with him today was different from the girl he had known a few years ago.
The girl standing in front of him right now was like a girl inside a fairy tale. Beautiful, sweet and charming.
He even subconsciously said, "beautiful." However, he hastily smothered his own mouth when he accidentally met Khanif.
Where does he want to make trouble with Khanif! Wanna go in omeli him!
"Sorry to Rania" he said, which sounded familiar. "So, I didn't say that on purpose."
"Papa sis."
"You're looking for Khanif, aren't you?" an unimportant question, but got a nod of the head from Rania.
"What's it gonna take to find me?" asked Khanif who even got a grunt from his friends.
"Byeah, Khanif. How the hell are you! Rania must be looking for you because there's something she wants to say to you."
"Yes, this child has no gratitude to have been sought by the earth angel."
"If I were the one you were looking for, I'd immediately agree."
All the words from the three friends even made Khanif sigh short.
"You're all there," he responded. Khanif then turned to Rania who chose silence while looking at the three upperclassmen who used to be good to him as well.
"Let's just talk there" Khanif said.
Khanif first walked outside the restaurant followed by Rania behind him.
The three Khanif friends who were said to be ignorant were also about to follow them to hear the conversation that occurred between them later. But when the three Khanif friends were about to stand up, their footsteps were first restrained with texts that entered in their chat group.
Of course they followed the words Khanif sent in the group. Otherwise, the food they had ordered, they would have to pay for each one. Of course they choose to follow the words of Khanif rather than having to pay for the food which is fairly expensive.
Yes, even if they can actually pay for it. If it is free, why not!
Then in lethargy, they returned to eat expensive food that they deliberately ordered.
Unlike Khanif and Rania, after they were outside the restaurant, they remained silent in the first minute. Until Khanif who felt that Rania would remain silent, finally chose to open the conversation first.
"What are you looking for me for?"
"I just want to know the situation of the father."
"I'm already okay. As you can see. If that's all you want to know, I'll go in first."
When Khanif was about to leave, Rania stopped her footsteps.
"Wait!"
"Hem. What's up again?"
"Why do you never enter the office after you know that you are well?"
"I'm focused on organizing a school reunion that's going to be held this week. You're not fucking."
"Hem, tau. But ... but I don't think that's why you don't go to the office."
"meaning?"
"The father never came to the office because he avoided me, right?" rania asked so smoothly without fear that Khanif would laugh at her for being too kege'eran.
"You're just there. Why am I avoiding you? What's the point for me?"
Ah, nevermind. It seems that Khanif must tell Rania the real reason so that Rania does not misunderstand him.
"I never came because at the reunion this time, there was something very special going on there. Of course, I, whose note is the chairman of the upcoming school reunion, must check all the readiness so that when the special time happens, there is not a single mistake that happens later. At the very least, everything can go smoothly without any hitch."
"What special time is that?" rania asked curiously high level.
"Emm, you can't know. If you are curious, you will come later. Alright. That's all I can say. If there's nothing else you want to ask, I go inside first. The other friends must have been waiting for me. So is it with you."
Khanif then left Rania who was still dumbstruck with his words. But just a few steps, he turned back to see Rania who had no sign of following him soon.
"Rania!" call him. "Let's go in."
Rania nodded awkwardly. He then began to follow Khanif's footsteps. When they were in the restaurant, they split up.
Khanif returned to the school reunion committee friend, while Rania went to her coworker.
"Rania! Where are you from!" ask one of his coworkers.
"I'm sorry, I just met my upperclassman. So it's not nice if I don't go near them."
"That's what it looks like. So we can eat and drink!"
"Yes, just order. Please."
One of them waved his hand at a servant.
Not long after, the waiter went to them to record the order.
They all started to open their menu books and started ordering their food and drinks.
After everything had been ordered, the waiter said, "please wait a minute for your order."
A few minutes later, their order arrived. They started eating together this afternoon. The actual meal was their farewell with Rania.
Half an hour later, the food and drink on the table had no toilet left. Until gradually, one by one of them also paid to go home first because the day began to look dark.
As they all leave, leaving her and Dian behind, Rania goes to the cashier's table to pay their meal bills.
Dian who saw the cost to be incurred by Rania was successful in rounding her eyes in disbelief.
"Ra, is that really the price you have to pay?" the question was as slow as whispering in Rania's ear.
"Hem. Why?"
"Papa NGO. I didn't think you'd have to pay our food bills that much."
"Udah ngga papa. Never mind papa."
"Ah, yes. You're right."
After paying for it, the two women walked out of the restaurant.
For a moment they arrived at the car park. As Rania was about to get on Dian's motorcycle, a white suv stopped right beside them.
"Pak Khanif," cried Dian slowly.
Khanif who lowered the windshield of his car made Dian ask again.
"What's up, sir?"
"Your houses are different directions from here, right?" tanya Khanif immediately made Dian nod his head slowly.
"Then, Rania's in my car."
"No need sir. I have no problem."
"Yes, same."
"This is not a statement, but an order. Let's get in!"
Rania then sees Dian as asking for approval.
"Udah you follow the same Mr. Khanif. Gih, there."
"You be careful on the road, if so."
"Hem. You are the same."
After Rania got into Khanif's car, Khanif drove his car towards Rania's house.
