OBSESSED WITH HEART
RIVALS
Without feeling the night has come. Moonlight begins to illuminate the eastern hemisphere. Replacing the sun that has finished carrying out its duties. Like ordinary nights, stars with all their beauty adorn the dark sky.
Rey just got back from tutoring. He parked his motorcycle in the garage. With a little running, he climbed a few steps. Their house is a little higher. There are about 6-7 stairs to reach the terrace of the house. Rey rang the doorbell. Shortly after, the aunt opened the door for him.
“New home, Mas?” tanya Bik Murni with a big smile.
“Iya, Bik.,” Rey replied. Mama and Papa are home?” he asked his parents.
“Mother again in the room, massaged with Siska. If you are, it looks like you will be home in a few minutes, Mas,” replied Bik Murni.
Siska is the son of Bik Murni. He is still Junior High. Rey's parents have also financed Siska's school since Elementary. Well, Pure Bik has been working at Rey's house for a long time. It's been since Rey's parents just got married. He even knows very well how and what happened to Rey's family.
“Ohhh... I went up to the room first yeah, Bik.”
“Iya, Mas.”
Rey left Pure Bik. He climbed the stairs to the second floor. Rey's room is located not far from the stairs and directly opposite Kai's room. Arriving at the room, Rey goes straight into the bathroom, after putting her things away, to clean herself up.
After taking a bath, he lay down for a while to let go of the fatigue on his bed. Then he got back up, put on his minus glasses and sat down at the study table. It has become imperative in his life to repeat all the material presented in school and summarize the important points in one material. Usually he will only sleep at 11 pm because he also has to do the tasks given by his tutoring mentor.
However, for some reason tonight he felt a little lazy. It flashed in his brain to contact Ziyan. He picked up his cell phone that was lying just on the bed.He pressed some lifts that became a combination of phone numbers. Ziyan's phone number. The call is forwarded to that number.
In his room, in the school dormitory, Ziyan was also repeating the lesson. Cellphone's ringing. He grabbed the phone beside him while his eyes remained focused on reading the textbooks.
“Halo, assalamu’alaikum. Who?” sapa Ziyan, asked without further ado.
“This is me Zee,. Rey,” replied Rey, across there.
“Ohhhh, what's up?”reply Ziyan while looking at the screen of his phone that displays the name “OSIS” Chairman.
“Ngapain?”ask Rey, stale.
“Learn.” Ziyan replied, briefly.
“Lo already ate?”
“Nih while eating popmie.”
“Popmie again? Not good for health.”
“Males down to the dining room because.”
“Learn the lessons, Zee. But health is also mandatory.”
“Yah..”
“Then it. I bought food. Bentar... Assalamu’alaikum”
“Ngak..”.
Rey immediately disconnected her call before Ziyan could refuse. Ziyan was even stupefied. He shrugged his shoulders and threw his phone on the bed and continued to study.
Rey hastily changed her clothes. A jacket hung near the closet. While wearing his jacket, he made sure his phone and wallet were not left behind. He also took one of the hats hanging in his collection. Then he went down to the first floor of the house. In the dining room his parents were eating dinner.
“Rey, eat!” call her mother when Rey is still coming down the stairs.
“Neither Hungry, Ma,” Reply Rey.
Suddenly Kai appears from the door of the house. He just got home too. Rey had guessed that Kai had just returned from the race. He knows from the helmet Kai holds and the blue black jacket Kai always wears when going to races. He meets Kai. They were silent to each other.
“Kai, race run out again?” ask mama Rey. “Have eaten belom?” connect him.
“I'm not hungry.” Kai then passed by without looking at it for a bit.
“Where are you night-night?” asked her father after noticing Rey's clothes.
“Place of friends,” Rey replied. He then left both his parents.
“Place friends but the perfume is very fragrant,” chirps Mr. Regar, papaanya.
His words were heard by Kai who was still in the middle of the stairs. He stopped climbing the stairs. Turned her head on Rey who was still wearing her shoes in front of the shoe rack located right next to the door.
“The name is young man, Pa. It turns out that Rey is already big well..” reply Bu Ranti, his mother, interspersed with a small laugh. The father laughed while shaking his head.
“Kids of today. Knowing love too quickly. But, yasudah. Their rights anyway,” his papa said.
Kai did not enter his room. He came back down to catch up with Rey.
“Loh, Kai, where are you going?” mama Rey asked a little screamed, when she saw Kai coming back down and wearing his shoes. However, Kai did not answer. He rushed to the garage to pick up his motorbike so as not to be left behind
by Rey.
“These kids why, anyway?” mumbling Mama Rey while shaking her head.
Kai follows Rey's car a little further back, so Rey doesn't know that he's following her. Rey's car stopped at one of the restaurants on the side of the road. Kai watched from afar.12 minutes later, Rey came out of the restaurant with a plastic bag in her hand. He got back in the car and drove his car to school. Kai follows her from behind and has a premonition that Rey will meet Ziyan when Rey's car turns into the street leading to their school.
Rey parked her car on the side of the road close to the main gate. After Rey enters the school, Kai gets off his bike. He peeked out of the gate. He pulled out his phone and sent a WhatsApp message to someone.
“Nih..” Rey handed him a plastic bag from the restaurant, which contained a food box and a plastic glass of thai tea ice in the other bag.
“Rey, actually I want to refuse earlier.But you are hunting matiin. And if I refuse it now, pity his lo who has come all the way here,” said Ziyan.
“Yah means you have no choice but to accept,” reply Rey.
“Well that's the problem. Have you eaten yet?” Ziyan sat on the bench facing Rey. They are bounded by a table in the middle.
“Gue not laper. Lo eat only.” Rey opened the lid of the rice box to Ziyan. Ziyan then thanked him and ate him.
From a distance, Kai looked at the two with an annoyed heart. Dika ran up to him from the direction of the son's dorm. He lives in a boarding school. And the person that Kai sent the WA message to was himself. He stood in front of Kai while fretting. In his hands his chest while regulating the breath. Kai pulls Dika to his side to make her invisible to Rey. Dika frowned, confused.
“Actually you ask me why Kai?” he did it while improving his hairstyle.
Kai just kept quiet with his face down. Dika looked in the same direction as Kai. He was surprised and looked at Kai's annoyed face.
“Sabar, Bro. You're still a newcomer. What did I say too. Rey is difficult to compete,” said Dika ended with a laugh.
“Shut!” press Kai. He stopped laughing, shrugging his shoulders. He continued to watch Rey and Ziyan.
Rey looked at Ziyan who was seriously finishing her meal. He smiled once in a while and then stopped when Ziyan looked at him. Suddenly Ziyan choked. Rey quickly offered him a drink. Ziyan immediately drank the ice, without taking it from Rey's hand. Rey was wrong. He pretended
justifying his glasses while smiling in his bow.
Some students passing by were about to go to the dormitory to see this, whispering. They also smile. Or the term young people today with baper (brought feelings).
“Ekhemmm...” said Dika while clapping. Add to Kai's annoyance.
“Silence. Mending you back to the dormitory there. Make the atmosphere hotter,” said Kai.
“OK, I happen to be sleepy,” reply Dika while covering his mouth that evaporates.
“Totally? I went back to yah?” dika asked after walking a few steps leaving Kai at the gate.
“Iya. It's there!” answer Kai. Dika leaves Kai. In his heart laughed at his friend's annoyance.
Ziyan had finished his meal. Rey opened the tissue she bought and thrust at Ziyan. Ziyan picked up a piece of tissue and wiped it around her mouth.
“Thanks well, Rey for her food.”
“Casual aja.”
“Lo is my best friend after Hanni.”
“Oh yes, Hanni does not write here?”
“Ngak. His bokapnya again at home he said.”
Rey nodded.
“Lain times, if you want to eat something just tell me.
I must have boughtin.”
“Emang you're the best. But it doesn't have to be like that. Sorry
ngerepotin lu.”
“Who said ngerepotin. I'm glad to help my friend.”
“Yes, Rey.” Ziyan patted his own eel.
“Why?” ask Rey, frowning.
“Gue forgot to turn off the fan in the room. My scholarship can be deducted by paying for electricity,. Yaudah I went up first. Thanks for the food,” Ziyan replied. He was getting ready to go back to the room.
“Iya. I want to go home too, right. Until tomorrow.” Rey waved her hand. Ziyan nodded while showing her sweet smile and raised her eyebrows. He leaves Rey, returns to his room on the 2nd floor.
Rey was about to get back to her car parked outside. Arriving at the gate, suddenly someone pulled him and directly pushed him against the wall of the fence made of stone. That person was Kai who had been waiting for him.
“Anaan anyway, Kai?” rey asked, withstanding the pain in the back of her body.
“Lu the fuck? You said you didn't like him. Why are you even cheating on me?” spray Kai.
“Lo why the hell? It's not clear though.” Rey sued Kai, pretending not to understand.
He was about to leave Kai who was somehow possessed by a demon. But Kai pushed her back against the wall and pulled her jacket collar. Kai's face was now right in front of his face. He could see Kai's eyes blushing with anger. Rey casually smiled with a grin.
“Gue never said I don't like him. And I think anyone's right to like him as long as he doesn't belong to anyone. Including lo,” firmly Rey, staring at Kai's eyeballs.
“Gue doesn't like anyone else who likes the girl I like,” Kai replied.
Rey pushes Kai away from her. Then back to him who squeezed Kai into the wall with his arm. “Lo who should be aware. Ever since, you always took what I had. And you shamelessly want to take Ziyan. I won't let it! Remember that! You're not her type! Lo will just make him sick, and I won't let it!” press Rey. He left Kai.
