I Love You, J!

I Love You, J!
Chapter VI - Sure There's Nothing?


I haven't spoken to Mas Yudha for a few days. This time my brother was too much. I see, he doesn't want me to be hurt. But that doesn't mean he has the right to arrange for me to hang out with whom.


Okay if I'm forbidden to date first. I accept that I'm considered still easy to trust with guys. But in the end I managed not to be fooled by Jevan's acting kneeling before me in tears. And why can't I be friends with Junot who has nothing to do with this heartbreak?


Junot already has a girlfriend. I saw it myself. The girl cheers Junot up backstage as Junot plays a gig filling out a campus event. It's just that Junot hasn't introduced his girlfriend yet.


“That's Junot's girlfriend?” yasmin asked while pointing at the girl wearing the crop top. “Secretly turns out Junot girly's taste too.” Yasmin giggles. “Eh, he hasn't told us officially huh, when is it?”


“Fear we are facing taxes soan times,” I said.


“Udah should Junot have a girlfriend. So that it is not considered dating lo mulu.”


“Emang looks like that?”


“Kalo people do not know you guys from small, must be considered dating,” said Yasmin sure.


I glanced at Yasmin. “Times anyway?”


Yasmin nodded steadily. “You used to know Junot early on to me, I thought you guys were dating.”


I remember introducing Junot to Yasmin back in 1st grade High School. At that time Yasmin and Junot both played home. Seeing Junot familiar with me, even being casual with Mas Yudha and my parents, maybe that was what caused Yasmin to think that we were dating.


“Lo not the slightest feeling so to Junot?” ask Yasmin.


“Why is the question so?”


“Soal y'all from small. At home, just a doang victory? Junot is a material boyfriend. Although not much to say, but he cares about you, willing to be a garbage can and want to cry out all your grievances. Don't you feel anything different from him?”


I shrugged my shoulders. “It is precisely because we are friends from small, yes it feels strange if suddenly turned into another relationship.”


Yasmin flicked her finger. “Can be so you both hold back for fear of being weird if each has more feelings. I said anyway, you're too comfortable with Junot.”


“Nevent the most analysis deh lo,” I said. “Si Junot already want to appear noh.” I pointed towards the stage and looked for a comfortable position to watch.


The audience was already cheering as Junot greeted with his crisp voice. Junot's aura is very different when he is performing with his guitar. Though his appearance was simple, he was only wearing plain sweatshirts and jeans, his hair was also left disheveled. But when he plays his guitar, he's not like the Junot I know.


“Junot if the gig becomes handsome yes,” said Yasmin.


I don't want to have to agree. Junot does look handsome when it comes to gigs.


“Try the flow of music is not noisy gini,” I said half screaming because of the loud music.


“Eh, exciting know!” Yasmin spoke near my ear. “Lo mostly listen to twilight music.”


I didn't respond to him. Junot's music fans are mostly men. They jump and sing. I wonder, how on the same page the songs of the band Junot? I didn't expect Junot's band to be this popular with college kids.


The band Junot performed four songs. After two songs passed, the audience not only head bang to follow the rhythm of the music, but also doing moshing. I also urged Yasmin to find a safe position. But my friend did not want to move from a position that he considered strategic.


“Later Junotnya not visible!” Yasmin.


“Later we can get hit!” I said.


The audience banged their bodies against each other. It is not impossible that we who are not far from the group that conducted the moshing will be affected. Yes, if only a nudge. If they're pogo and we're dragged along how?


During the final song, the audience went crazy. I pulled Yasmin away. The audience will definitely do pogo. I saw they were holding hands and ready to turn. If one or more people had their grip removed, that person would have bumped into the other audience.


“Yas! It will be violent if we get it!” my yelling.


“Ih, responsibility, one more song! Safe for this, they're the front page!” Yasmin.


“But it can spread here, Yas! I've seen pogo people, far away!”


“Intermediate exciting!”


Jeez Yasmin. It's hard to say. He could be relaxed enjoying music while the people near him are crazy and circling. One person was seen detaching from the handle and deliberately bumping into another spectator. The audience who got hit also retaliated and they hit each other.


Soon this action will spread. I pulled Yasmin's arm. Bodo. I prefer to find safe.


“Wait! Don't pull!” yasmin Protest.


“Come! It's getting worse!” I said.


BUGS!!


I feel someone hit me on the shoulder. I staggered while holding onto Yasmin. But a second later I felt my body being pulled away. I don't know how it's going. Suddenly my body began to drift, hitting whatever was near me. I don't know how long I've been dragged here and there, what was clear around me turned dark.


 


***


I dream. In my dream, a warrior carried me in the middle of the forest. He was wearing a black headband, his face handsome with a firm jaw and a sharp eye gaze. Both of his arms were firm, I felt comfortable in the arms of the swordsman. It felt fine if I leaned against his chest that was field for a longer time.


“We are almost there,” said the swordsman.


I'm stunned. The voice of this warrior is so deep. So bad I just kept quiet.


A moment later, we arrived at a small cottage. The swordsman laid me carefully on an old wooden cot. He looked at me for a few moments before saying.


“This why until the children's kettles pogo anyway?”


Huh huh? I gawk. Why be pogo? Is this really the handsome swordsman who talks? Ah, it seems like something is wrong. I blinked slowly. My vision suddenly blurred. I blinked again until my vision was clearer. I sighed softly, really disappointed with what I saw.


“Kirana! You're sober?”


I saw Junot's worried expression. So the voice I heard earlier was this guy's voice. Next to him Yasmin was no less anxious either. Aish, I don't want to wake up yet.


“Gue where?” my many.


“Health room,” says Yasmin. “Aduh, I've been very scared lo why-napa.”


I move to wake up. But my head still feels dizzy.


“Diem first, don't get up,” prevent Junot. “Loah you make me afraid, I do not think you will be seret children who pogo.”


I pointed at Yasmin. “It's a real brat,” I said.


“Sorry, Na. I'm so sorry,” Yasmin said in a clear tone. “Gue thought they wouldn't reach nyenggol us.”


“Yas, whose name is pogo, the effect can be widespread, they hit each other and anyone can be hit. Finally, the ones who got hit with the pogo also. Good thing Kirana didn't get an injection,” Junot said.


“Na, sori..” says Yasmin again. He looks very guilty.


“Iya, yes,” I said. “Lain times don't be recalcitrant kalo arguablyin.” I looked at Junot. “Lo done playing?” my many. “Where was it?”


Junot scratched his head. “Gue panic, so go straight off the stage as soon as you know you fainted.”


I immediately felt bad. Did I mess up Junot's appearance? “Yeah Jun, why go off stage all the time? In any case you have to explain your appearance. There will be someone who will help me.”


Junot sighed. “Nothing, it's the last song too. Want me to continue also the atmosphere is not good.”


“Sori Jun..”


“Why say sori? Kan lo victim.”


“Ya because of my band appearance lo so messed up.”


Junot shook his hand. “Not screwed. No, no need to feel bad. What matters now is that you are doing well. Oh yeah, is there a wound? Try checking first, maybe someone is sick.”


Slowly I sat on the edge of the mat. I moved my hand and immediately grimaced as my shoulder hurt.


“Sick yes?” Junot touched my shoulder. “Surely because of the nagging earlier.”


I'm nodding. “But it's not serious. How do I stay in physiotherapy.”


“By the way if you want to go to physiotherapy, let me cementin,” said Yasmin.


A moment later Junot's bandmates called out to him. It seems like they still have some business to settle. So it's just me and Yasmin in the infirmary.


I grimaced again as my ribs ached as I moved. Yasmin seemed to want to cry seeing me in pain.


“Gue is okay,” I said, although I still feel annoyed because of Yasmin's stubbornness earlier.


“Gue was so scared earlier,” said Yasmin slowly. “By the way, Na.”


“Ya?”


“Tadi Junot looks really worried. Tumben I see he's that sweet. As soon as he got off the stage, he immediately carried you here.”


“Oh yes?”


“Kok lo flat really?”


“Keep I should what?”


“Junot even forgot her boyfriend is still in the backstage for the sake of making elo.”


“That's because he panicked.”


“Iya, but right.. ah, that's it. Difficult to explain. You want to go home now, right? Let me take you. Motor lo Junot is taking care of he said. I do not understand the same as the child, want to bother for the sake of elo,” grumbled Yasmin.


I smiled thinly. I don't know what Yasmin was thinking. I hope he doesn't exaggerate Junot who panics and worries when I pass out. Well, because it doesn't need to be exaggerated either. Junot is my best friend. FRIENDS.
