Fariz smilingly shook his head noticing Zafira's childlike playful behavior banging her own head.

"I accused Fariz of thinking dirty things about me, but why I imagined Fariz's own. Hiiiii disgusting! What's wrong with me? Why is my brain so dirty like this with Fariz? I can think about it! I'm so stupid!, "the inner Zafira still curses her own stupidity with a dumb face.

"Hey Zafira? What's wrong with you? Why are you such a confused person?" asked Fariz waving before the girl's face which made Zafira realize from the thoughts that were rolling in his head.

"Eh, thatu.., I was just curious about the tense word you were referring to earlier? Explain to me, what do you mean?" the girl was surprised, and stammered.

"Oh that, I was feeling tense when you suddenly hugged me. You see, I've never hugged a girl before" Fariz honestly said the truth.

Hearing Fariz's words, Zafira spontaneously laughed while holding his stomach with both hands. For a few seconds he laughed with pleasure laughing at his best friend.

But the laughter instantly disappeared as his mind returned to the thought of a slovenly who had imagined a valuable object belonging to Fariz. The girl became embarrassed herself with her brain already daring to think of something that she did not deserve to think about and in order to cover up the real thing, the girl tried to be calm in front of Fariz.

"How can you hug a girl? Lover does not exist. Go to the mall! You hug the mannequins in the mall. You must be getting tense. Hihi, hihi..," Zafira laughed shutting her mouth with her hands, mocking Fariz, who all this time she knew, the man had never had a close friend of a girl.

"The manneken is a statue, which is nice to hold it. It's just weird of you! But I'm serious, Zafira, I was nervous when you hugged me" Fariz said.

Hearing Fariz's last words, the girl suddenly recalled the strange feeling that had engulfed her while hugging Fariz earlier.

Zafira rolled her eyes while thinking about something that had disturbed her heart and mind. And as he always did, if there was something that stuck his heart and mind then he would unceremoniously tell it to anyone who was with him at the time, both to Zafran and Fariz.

"Fariz.., Hmmm..," the girl still did not continue her words, her feelings were still a little hesitant to reveal the truth.

"Yes? What do you want to say? Say," asked Fariz chasing impatiently Zafira's hanging sentence.

"So that.., Why was I holding you, my heart suddenly thumped? I felt something strange in my heart," Zafira asked so innocently, looking up at Fariz, revealing honestly the thing she felt while hugging the handsome man.

"What?" Fariz asked with both eyebrows raised and eyelids wide open and mouths agape. The reaction of his face was full of shock hearing what Zafira had said.

The man was flabbergasted by Zafira's revelation. His eyes were staring at the girl. Zafira was staring hard at him. It seemed that the two men were feeling the same confusion.

If it is true that Zafira feels the same way as Fariz feels, heart pounding fast and heart beating fast, what does that mean without Zafira realizing it, he said, he had fallen in love with Fariz and had loved her? Is that a sign that Zafira has loved Fariz as Fariz loves Zafira?

A smile also burst from the lips of Fariz who felt so happy to hear the statement of Zafira's heart.

"Is your heart really pounding?" a million hopes appeared inside Fariz. His face showed joy.

"Have something happened to your heart?" Fariz poked at Zafira's heart, staring unblinkingly at the pretty face in front of her.

"You mean?," asked Zafira not understanding, hooking both eyebrows observing Fariz.

"Hmm, I meanuu.., have you started loving me now?," Fariz asked without shame. He wanted to immediately know Zafira's true heart to himself and no longer think of any shame or feeling.

"Huh?" Zafira's eyes widened and his mouth opened to form the letter O.

"What are you talking about? How could it be that, just because my heart was pounding when I hugged you, you just came to the conclusion that I was in love with you?" Zafira glued to Fariz.

"That's just my guess. It could be true, it could not be. From the stories that I often hear, usually people who are in love often feel pounding and happy when meeting people he likes. Especially until it comes into contact with a loved one, surely he will feel something different. And maybe you were pounding because your feelings for me have started to change. Who knows you've already started falling in love with me" Fariz said with full hope the girl would say yes.

"Cannot be. How could I fall in love with you? I already have a lover. Does a girl love two men at once? That's a shame. I can't possibly do that. You're here" Zafira shook her head in disapproval of Fariz's conclusion.

Fariz stood up. Not answering.

"Let me explain to you. All my life I've never hugged a man who wasn't my family, except Zafran, papa and om Bram. The rest I never hugged men. And just this time I hugged a man, you. Maybe it was for that reason that I felt shocked and my heart became pounding," Zafira explained the feeling she felt.

Fariz. To be honest there was a sense of disappointment in his heart hearing Zafira's words.

Hope is hope. The answer ''yes" he expected to come out of the girl's mouth was answered ''no".

But deep down, Fariz also confirmed Zafira's words. It is natural that the girl's heart suddenly thumped when hugging her, because before Zafira had never hugged so intimately with a man who was not her family.

A minute later, the man finally nodded, confirming Zafira's perception.

"Yes, that's exactly what you said. Maybe you feel surprised because you are not used to cuddling with men other than your family. But wait, wait..," Fariz looked at Zafira's face as if looking for something on her face.

"Wait for what?" Zafira frowned at Fariz's suspicious behavior.

"So you said, you just cuddled with Zafran, om Arga and om Bram. How about Ronald? Your lover. Moreover, you have been in a relationship for eight years. Have you never hugged her?" asked Fariz so inquisitively and his heart eagerly awaited Zafira's reply.

The man hoped that Zafira would answer "never".

Zafira pulled a smiling lip looking at Fariz who seemed to be waiting impatiently for his answer.

"You seem to want to know. Hayooo, lest you be jealous?," the seductive Zafira smiled narrowed both eyes towards the man in front of her.

"Yes, I want to know. Quickly tell me, Zafira," Fariz made his eyes bulge, deliberately trying to scare Zafira.

"Hey, why do you want to know so much? This is my personal business with my girlfriend. There's no way I'm showing it to other people" Zafira said, still pranking Fariz, laughing at Fariz's face, which was beginning to look upset.
