My Old Star
#86 Hunting Taste
Mentari looked at Marryana who was smiling wryly because of her surprise but tried to cover up with a smile on her lips.
Reza understands the situation between them, "Sit down first, later you go again your reference is complete enough so no need to add more."
"Marry introduced him to Mentari the second grader at this campus, he will also finish his thesis soon." Reza introduced Mentari to Marryana.
"We've known each other before Reza," answered Marryana and Mentari just nodded confirming Marryana's remark.
"Oh good if it's like that, we can get more familiar."
"Reza, Ana I said yes." Arfan stood up from his seat, embracing Mentari's shoulders and parting out of Reza's room before Mentari sat with them.
"Why rush Fan, only then have you guys left already." Reza doesn't want Arfan to just walk away.
"Maybe next time Za, remember don't make it hard on my Ment!" Arfan slacking.
"She can always solve problems as hard as Fan can, so don't worry about her as much as she can." Reza also jokingly praised the skills of Mentari so far.
"Let's go, baby, we have to go to the club." Take Arfan to his wife, Marryana felt that the position of Mentari should be his.
Mentari followed Arfan, he did not speak a word until he got into the car because when passing his friends their view looks very terrible.
"Sorry dear forgive me for putting you in such a bad position." Arfan wears a seatbelt for Mentari. There is a clear sound of the roar of Arfan's breath in Mentari's ear.
"I-I'm fine, brother, I can understand it."
"Ana's just my childhood friend, now she's coming but I already have you."
"If you haven't been with me, is there a possibility to be with him?"
"What kind of question is that, baby?"
"Jawab my sister, isn't she beautiful and very mature?" Mentari hunts his curiosity by asking questions.
"It doesn't matter baby, my heart's just one and it's already filled, so there's no place left for Marryana or anyone out there."
They arrive at the club when the boys have just finished training, Arfan meets Tomi while Mentari chooses to help Sania and Ilyas' mother in the kitchen. They are preparing food for the children.
"Sir Sania can I ask you a question?"
"What do you want to ask, go ahead." Answer Sania who is slicing an onion.
"Sak Sania does know a woman named Marryana, if brother Arfan calls her Ana."
Sania frowned feeling unfamiliar with the name, but the mother of Steven was still trying to remember, worried if indeed she forgot the name. However, Arfan never even mentioned that name in front of him.
Mentari deliberately asked to make sure if Marryana was really Arfan's childhood friend and not Arfan's former lover in the past because Arfan said that he had never had a lover until he met Mentari.
"I've never heard that name Mentari, even Arfan as long as I've known him never once mentioned the name Marryana or Ana in front of me Mentari."
"I'll try to ask Tomi, but what's the matter with that name?"
"It's okay, brother, I just want to ask." Mentari has not told Sania anything at this time.
"Let's just say Mentari, did something happen to you?"
"No brother Sania, no. Our relationship is fine don't worry about it, brother, really I just want to ask."
"Well if it's like that, if Arfan starts to mess around just tell me. I'll make a calculation with him."
Mentari laughed at Sania's extremely serious expression plus her face seemed to grunt.
"Sir Sania turned out to be bars as well" Mentari told Sania.
"They will be terrible if he has betrayed Mentari, do not blame those who were meek will turn violent."
In the meeting room, Arfan was having a serious conversation with Tomi considering the team they were playing against was not a team from a random club.
Club Zaki has been on the podium several times in the national championship and this time they returned to the final round in the team qualifying round to be able to advance to the national level again.
Although both clubs have been confirmed to qualify, but the championship race will still roll and add great popularity for anyone who later won it.
"Their team is quite tough Fan, maybe a few times we can win against them but with a very thin score."
"Does our team have a chance this time?"
"I hope so Fan, the match is only a few days away. Do you have a specific strategy?"
"I've been working on it for a few days now, I just have Mentari calculate the accuracy, but this must be applied when practicing in order to be able to calculate how much effectiveness."
Arfan thought for a moment, "Do you think we need to involve Arman and Tom in this?"
"You're right, Tom, we'll involve Mentari in this."
Arfan ended their discussion and returned to Mentari who had finished arranging food for the children on the table.
"Honey let's go home" Arfan invited his wife to come home soon.
The mentor who always obeyed Arfan immediately took his bag and said goodbye to everyone to go home.
Mentari checked his phone when they were on the car that Arfan was driving. There was a message coming in from an unknown number. Mentari opened it and read the message someone sent him.
"Sister Marry? How does he know my number?" think Mentari.
Mentari showed Arfan the message, "Sister Marry invited us to dinner this weekend!"
"Do we have to come?"
"He sincerely invites us, brother, so there is no harm if we come. Don't offend anyone with our attitude." Mentari's answer was soothing to Arfan's heart.
"Just follow the madam!" Arfan makes Mentari feel embarrassed by calling her a mistress, but she is now a legitimate mistress of Arfan.
At Mona's apartment, Marryana comes to visit when she hears that Mona is sick, even though she's fine now.
Marryana has been friends with Mona ever since she found out Mona was close enough to Arfan, so all this time he always heard the news of Arfan one of them from Mona just the news of Arfan's marriage was only heard this time because Mona was sick after the Mentari kidnapping incident at that time.
The dinner Marryana planned was also on the advice of Mona who would take advantage of the situation to damage Arfan and Mentari's relationship.
The next day on campus, Marryana met Arfan at his desk while he was resting before giving his next course.
"Can I talk outside for a moment?" Pinta Marryana's.
"Can't we just talk here?"
"Just a moment Fan,"
Arfan went out to follow Marryana's wishes, while Mentari accompanied by Siska was heading to where Arfan taught, there was something he had to give to Arfan because he had been carried away by him accidentally.
"Did Mentari tell you?" Marryana asked as soon as they arrived at the edge of a field equipped with benches for the audience even though with a capacity that is not large because for the size of the campus is not a stadium, they both sat there.
"On dinner?"
"Yes Fan, you can come, right?"
"We'll try An."
"I wish you could come, I want to tell Mentari who I am."
"You mean?"
"You'll know Fan soon."
Arfan was suspicious of Marryana who seemed to be hiding something from him, "Fan do you remember when we were kids?"
"There is no need to continue, I am happy with Mentari at this time. Childhood is just a mere joke of an immature boy whose thinking while the world revolves, as time goes on they will have different thoughts let alone with the distance that separates us."
"What if I take it seriously?"
"I never promised you anything either."
"Did you believe the words of that snot boy that would make you a queen while at that time our thinking was still very trivial?"
"Fan there's no way my name's in your heart?"
"I've thrown away your name since you left this town An!"
"Would it be that if I stayed in this city then you would always be mine?"
"It's An, don't talk about it anymore. I'm married and I love my wife!" Arfan moved from his seat, but Marryana followed him and even the woman was intending to kiss Arfan but Arfan succeeded.
Despite this, Mentari saw and heard everything, the girl dropped the map she was carrying and left.
Arfan sees Mentari who goes away crying followed by Siska, he wants to chase after his wife only that he must immediately enter the classroom. He couldn't just leave the class.
As long as Arfan could not concentrate at all, his heart and mind were fixed on Mentari. He did not want to hurt his wife for misunderstanding between them.
Arfan rushed to find Mentari once the class he had to be able to finish, even Arfan did not hear the words of Mr. Rio because he was in a hurry.
Marryana felt victorious this time, "Maybe there will be a world war, we just wait for who will win!" he said in his heart, he was actually laughing at himself who was unknowingly ruining the happiness of others.
