Love Between Laughter And Heart Pounding
"Mixed Love"

Lia's life becomes more interesting after she gets to know Rico, the VVIP customer at the cafe where she works, and Putra, a photographer who often appears at weddings in the city. The two were two different men but had a kind side that attracted Lia's heart.

Rico is handsome, confident, and often gives Lia special attention. Whenever Rico came to the cafe, he always tried to make Lia smile. Rico becomes a pleasant figure for Lia and often invites her to dinner or spend time together outside the cafe.

On the other hand, there was Putra, a man who always carried a warm and cheerful smile on his face. When Putra comes to the wedding as a photographer, she always finds time to see Lia at the cafe and exchange stories about their day. Lia was comfortable with the presence of the Son, like meeting an old friend.

However, Lia's feelings become mixed as she realizes that her heart is beginning to split between Rico and Son. The two of them were different men, but Lia felt drawn to the kind side and charm they had.

One night, Rico invites Lia to have dinner together at a fancy restaurant. They sat together at a beautifully decorated table, and Rico looked very polite and considerate to Lia. They laughed together and exchanged stories about each other's lives.

However, in the midst of their conversation, Lia felt that there was tension rising between them. He feels that there is something he is hiding from Rico, which is his mixed feelings towards the Son.

After dinner, Rico takes Lia home. The two of them walked under the glittering light of the city, but Lia felt that there was a burden on her chest that she could not reveal to Rico.

Upon arriving in front of Lia's house, Rico stopped and looked at her gently. "I really enjoyed my time with you, Lia. I feel like there's something special between us" Rico said in a low voice.

Lia felt her heart thump. He knew that this moment was an opportunity to express his feelings, but he felt trapped in a dilemma. He didn't want to hurt Rico, but he also didn't want to hide his feelings.

Carefully, Lia replied, "I also enjoy the time with you, Rico. You're very special to me."

Rico smiled with relief at Lia's reply. She stood in front of Lia, looking at her beautiful face lovingly. However, before Rico could say more, he suddenly saw the Son walking across the street.

The son waved his hand and smiled at Lia. Lia quickly returned the greeting and smiled at him as well. Seeing that moment, Rico felt his heart shrink.

"It's late, I have to go home. Thank you for a lovely dinner" said Rico, a little disappointed.

Lia felt guilty because of her mixed feelings. He wanted Rico to know what he was feeling, but he also didn't want to hurt his feelings.

After Rico left, Lia walked home feeling worried. He had no idea what he should do with his mixed feelings towards Rico and Son.

The next day, Son appeared at the cafe as usual. Lia was happy to see him, but her heart was still burdened by the meeting with Rico last night.

The son saw a worried expression on Lia's face and asked, "What's the matter, Lia? What's bothering you?"

Lia felt open with the Son and decided to speak honestly. "I feel mixed, Son. I like Rico, but there are different feelings for you."

The son was surprised to hear Lia's words, but he wisely listened to what she wanted to say.

"Lia, you are a special woman to me. I'm happy to see you every time I come to the cafe" said Putra feelingly.

Lia was happy to hear that, but her heart was still confused. He knew that he had to make a difficult decision, but he did not want to hurt any of them.

Time passed, but Lia's feelings were still mixed. He feels divided between love and friendship, between Rico and Son.

One day, Putra invites Lia to take a walk in the park. They walked together in the warm sun, and Putra showed him some beautiful photos he took during his work as a photographer.

Lia was happy and comfortable to be beside the Son. She felt that she could be herself in front of him, without the need to hide her feelings.

But just then, Rico suddenly appeared in the park. Lia was shocked to see him, and she felt even more confused by his feelings. He did not want Rico to feel jealous or hurt if he was closer to the Son.

Lia tried to smile, but her heart was still mixed. He feels awkward being in the middle of Rico and Putra, two good men who have become an important part of his life.

The son wisely watched Lia's expression. He could feel the tension in the air and decided to give Rico and Lia a chance to talk.

"All right, I have to go home now. There's work to be done. See you soon, Lia," said the Son kindly.

Lia was moved by the understanding and wisdom of the Son. He nodded and gave a small smile to her. "See you, Son. Thank you for understanding," Lia replied gently.

After Putra left, Rico and Lia were both sitting on a park bench. Lia was nervous and did not know what to say. He felt the need to tell Rico about his mixed feelings.

"Rico, I have something to tell you" said Lia hesitantly.

Rico nodded and listened attentively.

"I'm mixed up, Rico. I really like you and the comfort you give me. But, there are also different feelings towards the Son," Lia said honestly.

Rico seemed surprised to hear Lia's confession, but he tried to remain calm. "I understand, Lia. Maybe that feeling is something natural. I'm also happy to get to know you and spend time with you" Rico said wisely.

Lia was relieved because Rico understood her feelings. He knew that he had made the right decision to be honest with Rico.

"Maybe we should give ourselves time to understand these feelings better" Rico gently advised.

Lia nodded in agreement. He felt grateful to have Rico as a trustworthy and understandable friend.

The two of them continued to spend time together, both in cafes and elsewhere. Lia was delighted that her mixed feelings had not damaged her relationship with Rico. They remained as familiar as before, and those complicated feelings of love faded away little by little.

The son also remained in Lia's life as a good friend. The two of them continued to exchange stories and support each other in achieving their dreams. The son was a pleasant figure to Lia and she felt comfortable talking to him.

Time continued to pass, and Lia's feelings grew more and more stable. He was happy with the presence of Rico and the Son in his life. Both give different colors and meanings to his life.

One night, while Lia was working at the cafe, Rico came up with a cheerful face. "I have good news for you, Lia. My business is growing, and I plan to open a new branch in the city" Rico said enthusiastically.

Lia was delighted to hear the news. "Congratulations, Rico! I'm so happy for you" Lia said with a smile.

Rico looked at that smile and smiled happily. He felt that his mixed feelings had brought them to this point. She thanked Lia for being a good friend and supported her throughout the journey.

Not long after that, Putra also came to the cafe. Lia and Putra exchanged smiles while talking about the latest wedding event he was handling.

Rico looks at their interactions and takes pride in the changes that have happened to Lia. He sees that Lia has become more confident and happy, both with Rico and with the Son.

When the night ends, Rico invites Lia to have dinner together as a celebration of her business success. The son was also invited to join, and the two of them happily accepted the invitation.

The three of them sat at the restaurant table, telling stories and laughing together. Despite the mixed feelings between them, the two of them had learned to support each other and appreciate each other's existence.

Lia's love journey with Rico and Putra becomes a unique and beautiful story. They both prove that mixed feelings do not always have to mess with relationships, but rather can be a valuable lesson on how to love with sincerity and appreciate the presence of others in our lives. Lia knows that, despite the love decisions she makes, Rico and Putra are two good men who will always be a special part of her life.
