How To Love You
Chapter 217

Miko is not the first man to ever express love for Tantri. Previously, there were several upperclassmen and classmates who had expressed love to him directly but he refused. When they expressed love for Tantri, the girl was very upset and very unhappy with it. Especially for those who seem forced to want their love statement accepted. Somehow he felt inversely proportional when the statement came out of the lips of the adult man beside him.

"But why, sister Miko never talked to me?" ask Tantri.

"Because I'm afraid you'll stay away if you don't like me" Miko replied honestly.

"Why, Brother Miko can draw such a conclusion?" ask Tantri. Miko turned around and looked at the girl's face.

"Did you really expect me to say it a long time ago?" miko asked with a smile and investigated.

"Eh, no-no, brother. I didn't mean to," replied Tantri stammered. I don't know why he felt so confused by the question.

"Sister Miko! I'm going in first, Dad. I was sleepy," added Tantri and quickly ran into her room. Not forgetting that he locked the door. Miko just laughed a little while shaking her head looking at the innocent behavior of her puja girl.

"God! What the hell was I talking about? Why can I ask that question like Miko's sister. I don't know how embarrassed I am" Tantri said to herself while covering her eyes with one hand. He felt very ashamed.

"Bod*h base," Tantri said cursing herself while patting her eel.

Tantri went into the bathroom. Because he wanted to wash his face, he also opened an instant hijab that he wore every day while he was at home. He washed his face with cold water then stared at his reflection in the mirror of the sink. His eyes were misfocusing on the beautifully circular glistening thing around his neck. A necklace, a birthday present from Miko.

Tantri recalled those times. He recalled how Miko wrapped the necklace around his neck. And until now he never got away even though. He continued to wear it at the request of the man.

I just realized, Dad. Is it okay, Miko's sister had a crush on me at that time? Inner Tantri smiled as she continued to stare at the heart-shaped necklace.

After a long time standing in front of the mirror, Tantri then walked out to his bed. Hopefully this time his eyes will be easier to close.

After almost a quarter of an hour Tantri laid his body, but drowsiness still did not come. He also chose to play his phone. This time he played his old phone. He was afraid to open the phone that was bought by Miko. He is increasingly afraid of not being able to sleep when looking at a photo of Miko.

Tantri opened the WhatsApp app on her old phone. He wants to check out his classmate's chat group. Usually at midnight like this there are still their friends who are rioting at this hour. Because often disturbed by the notifications of messages that enter the group, the girl deliberately mute notifications of her group messages for 1 year.

Tantri giggled at the brief messages sent by her friends in the group. Some also send funny videos. Suddenly his hands felt very itchy not to go along. Although he only sent 3 pieces of "😂😂😂" emoticons to respond to a funny video sent by one of his classmates.

Not long after he sent the message, suddenly a message entered on his phone. The message was from a close friend.

📩 Anton: P

📩 Tantri : Hi, Ton😃

📩 Anton: Tumben this hour you haven't slept🤔

📩 Tantri : Not yet sleepy😁

📩 Anton: You are still in SKG City right?

📩 Tantri : Yes, why?

📩 Anton: I'm also again in SKG City nih😁

📩 Tantri : How can you? Are you no longer a PKL in the ABC City branch of BLI Bank?

📩 Miko : She said she was sleepy. Why not sleep now?

📩 Miko : Let's get some sleep! It's getting late now

📩 Tantri : Bentar Kak. My sleepiness suddenly disappeared

📩 Miko : Already, fast sleeping now! How can you sleep if you keep playing?

📩 Tantri : Yes sir boss

After replying to Miko's message, Tantri again reads a message from Anton. He has not heeded Miko's orders telling him to go to sleep at that time.

📩 Anton : Yes it was 2 month ago. 1 Month before my certificate came out of there, I had already applied for an internship at the company where I worked. It just so happens that omku is the head of the finance division. So, I could easily be accepted in there.

📩 Tantri : Thank goodness. I'm on Ton😇

📩 Anton: Thanks. Oya, said you interned at the restaurant right? At which restaurant? Can I have the address, right?😀

📩 Tantri : That's very possible. The restaurant M&A Restaurant. Address Jl. Majesty No. Xx

📩 Anton: Uh, if not wrong last afternoon I passed in front of the restaurant. It is not far from my practice

📩 Tantri : Oh yeah. Once you stopped by dong Ton to my place

📩 Anton: Ready bos😎 Tomorrow well

📩 Tantri : Not tomorrow. In the next 3 days, I was told to have a vacation with the boss

📩 Anton: Why? You sick?

📩 Tantri: Not really. But that's an order from the boss. Cannot be disputed

📩 Anton: Oh. It's great that you get a long holiday from your boss

📩 Tantri : Hehe so Ton😁

2 A new message from Miko goes back to the Tantri number.

📩 Miko: If you haven't stopped online as well, I'll go to your room

📩 Miko: I want your kelonin so you can sleep fast

"Wine! When Miko comes really how? What a baby I want to be cheated on everything," said Tantri then rush to finish his chat with Anton.

📩 Tantri : Uh already well Ton. I'll see you on Thursday. Adios.

After sending the message, Tantri immediately disabled the Wi-Fi connection on her phone. He forced himself to fall asleep for fear that Miko would actually come to his room. Somehow this time Tantri easier to sleep. Either because it is already sleepy or maybe because of fear of threats.
