Italicized Before 24 Hours
CHASED

Septian came out of Pak Yudha's room with a satisfied face. The script is pretty smooth, not much to revise. It's still lunchtime. So he still had plenty of time before working the afternoon shift.

He intends to walk to FMIPA. Who knows, it's lucky to meet Nara. But his intention was delayed due to a call from Seno who was gathering with another friend.

"Where is your thesis?" Ask Seno.

"Alhamdulillah smoothly. They why? how do you like that lemes?" Septian pointed his chin at his friend's friend who looked lethargic, no spirit of life.

"For their broken hearts." Answer the Son while giggling. It seemed like he was very happy to see the suffering of his friend.

"But the mass heart?" Septian frowned in wonder.

"Yes, like this word. Hard forward, backwards especially."

"Don't understand me." Septian scratched his head with an absurd expression.

"Eatya, you often get together with us. Let's not miss the latest info. Budos idol mareka, yesterday the same way Diego." Seno Lirih.

Deg

Septian almost dropped the phone he was holding in shock. He clearly knew who budos was referring to.

"Crazy right? Diego Sep's." Seno emphasized his word. As if, Diego is a really amazing guy. "How is it not difficult to move forward if the rival is Diego. If I'm backing down alon alon."

Seno continued to sing alon alon's song backwards in front of his friends while occasionally laughing. Make the others look at him with a nampol expression.

Septian was getting restless. Where has his mind gone. Especially if you are interested in the smell of perfume yesterday.

"Diem lo pe ak." Maki Ganes while holding Seno's arm. While Seno did not care, still continued to sing. Happy over the suffering of his friend. Not knowing him, Septian was worse than all his friends.

"Sen." Septian pulled Seno's arm. "Where do you know that yesterday they went together?"

Seno opens her phone and shows Diego's instastory. Diego and Nara sit next to each other in a laptop shop. Not selfies, but someone photographed them from next door.

Septian clenched his palms. Her chest feels tight. So Nara lied yesterday. He said Nova, but what's wrong with Diego. Buy her a present, but with another man, it's ironic.

"Mu Nara's charm is undeniable. Until he arrives, Diego's classmate smitten with him. Though yes, who chased Diego a lot. Uh, he's just as good as Miss Nara. This is mah Fix, the man who once divorced Ms. Nara was so fucked up, I swear."

News of Nara's wedding being cancelled has spread across campus. How not to spread, on IG, many wedding photos found Nara and Abi. Of course not from the account of Nara or Abi, but from the account of the people present in their marriage.

"Diego that, what faculty the hell?" Septian asked arrived.

"The other one on menggepoin Bu Nara, why do you even memepoin Diego?" Instead of answering, Seno asked back.

"Jawab why is it so hard?" Septian became upset because Seno never answered.

"Faculty of economics."

Septian immediately pulled out of the place. The goal now is the economics faculty. I hope to meet Diego there. It seems like good luck is not on his side. He didn't meet Diego. Though he just wanted to make sure, whether Diego's perfume, the same as the one that stuck to Nara's clothes yesterday.

...*****...

Bang, have you come home yet?

Nara sent the message to Septian. After about 5 minutes, there was a reply.

Hitherto

Nara frowned reading a short reply from Septian. Rarely did her husband reply that short. In fact, he is not working. And this afternoon, her husband did not send a message either. Reminds him not to forget lunch.

Didn't want to ask more questions about Septian's short reply. Nara immediately packed her things and then came out of the lecturer room. He stepped quickly towards the lecturer's special parking lot.

"Ma Nara wait." Someone called him from behind.

Nara turned her back and clucked when she found out Diego called her. The guy was running towards her. He wanted to not care, but there, later Diego even kept calling him. And they become the center of attention. Oh no, don't get it.

"I'm sorry you made that yesterday." Said Diego while adjusting his breath.

Nara turned her body and walked away. But Diego went ahead of him and stopped right in front of him. Make Nara, inevitably forced to stop.

"Accept yes, as my apology." Diego handed Nara a black paper bag. There is a famous brand writing there. It can be ascertained, if the contents of the expensive goods.

Nara looked around. Yeah, they're the center of attention now.

"I'm sorry I can't. And please, keep your attitude on campus. I don't want to be a gossip because of you." Press Nara while glaring sharply at Diego.

"Alright, I won't approach you on campus anymore. But please, at least, pick up the phone from me. Or if not, reply to my message."

Nara grunted in annoyance. The man in front of him had long been talking. He sent a message to Nara several times. But of course, Nara did not want to retaliate.

"Excuse me, I have to go home." Nara had to bend her steps a little so as not to hit Diego. But the guy followed her.

Nara who is upset that Diego keeps following him immediately turns around.

"Please don't follow me." His sweat with a very suppressed tone. There was an uncomfortable expression on Nara's face.

"I'm not going to follow you anymore. But please accept this." He returned the paper bag he had brought to Nara.

"How many times do I have to say. I can't. And you need to know. I'm married." Nara finally pulled out her final move. He's out of his mind to escape from that man named Diego.

But Diego's response was beyond belief. The guy chuckles softly. It makes Nara confused.

"Everyone knows you're married."

Nara gawked at hearing it. Really so?

"But it's been declared void, isn't it, ma'am?" Continue with full confidence.

Nara immediately patted her own eel. She thought everyone knew about her marriage to Septian. It was actually his marriage to Abi first. Digital traces are hard to remove.

"I'm married again." Nara's true words are out of sense.

"Don't lie to Mom. I knew she was lying so I wouldn't chase her again. But I'm a tough fighting type ma'am. Not giving up easily."

Nara breathed tired. Tired of facing that feisty young blood. He shouldn't have been a teacher. Maybe being a kinder teacher is better. So there is no need to deal with tough leaning like Diego.

"Excuse me." Hiss Nara while continuing her steps towards the parking lot. Lucky Diego didn't follow her again. So he can breathe a sigh of relief.

On the way to the parking lot, Nara overhears a bit of grapevine. Ordinary, college students are ghibah.

"It turns out that Bu Nara's taste is in droves."

"Who wouldn't try, in droves is cool abis."

Nara could only guess who the crowd was referring to. Septian or Diego? Was his marriage to Septian public? Or even the leaning in question is Diego. The man who was late this brightly chased after him?

Nara immediately drove her car home. Now that it was almost 3 o'clock, her husband would soon have left for work.

Arriving home, Nara immediately went up to her room. His smile expanded as he saw Septian was busy at his study table. But wait, why is he using the old laptop. Why not the one he bought yesterday.

Septian turned his head when he heard the door open. But then, he refocused on his laptop. There was absolutely no intention to move from his seat and welcome Nara.

"Well, why didn't you use that laptop from me yesterday?" Nara asked as she poked her hand against Septian's neck from behind.

"I'm more comfortable with this laptop Ra."

Nara clucked in annoyance then released her hand from Septian's neck. "What does brother mean? my laptop is not comfortable to wear? less what, better feeling and more sophisticated than having a brother." Nara's a little upset. He then turned to Septian and sat on the bed.

Septian sighed then stood up and walked over to Nara. The woman's face was pouting, with both hands folded in the chest.

"Who were you at the mall yesterday?"

Nara gawked at the Septian question. He thought, the man approached her to persuade, but why did he even discuss the matter yesterday. It's beyond a doubt.
