PAST VIDEO SCANDALS
Avoiding the Gossip

" Geez, Bagas!"

Indhira spontaneously turned his head when he heard someone shout calling Bagas' name from the direction of the basketball court.

Indhira doesn't know what happened. He only saw Bagas holding his head with Benny and Edwin next to him. The look in his eyes then found the figure of Crystal who was seen fighting with Edwin until Crystal pushed Edwin's body.

Crystal is Bagas' former lover. They have been dating since they entered High School. However, eventually Bagas decides on Crystal because Bagas is close to other women outside of their High School.

Indhira's forehead shriveled as Crystal touched Bagas' arm. Not only the arms, but also the head of Bagas like a lover who is so attentive to his partner. Of course his heart seemed to be exploding at the sight like this moment.

Indhira also saw Bagas turning his gaze towards her until we looked at each other. However, it did not last long because Indhira immediately turned his face did not want to continue to linger with Bagas. And don't want to know what happens next with Bagas and Crystal on the basketball court.

" Ra, that's Crystal so close again, what do you want, huh?" Rissa who sat in front of Indhira stared suspiciously.

" Where do I know, Ris. It's none of my business anymore!" sahut Indhira tried to calm his heart which honestly felt jealous with Crystal's attitude towards Bagas. It is not easy to get rid of his affection for Bagas just like that. It's too hypocritical if he says he's not jealous.

" I'm suspicious, lest Bagas break up with you because he wants to reverse the same Crystal again." Rissa immediately felt suspicious about Bagas' closeness with Crystal after knowing that Bagas and Indhira's relationship ran aground. Of course as Indhira's best friend, Rissa feels angry if Bagas decides Indhira because the man will return to Bagas' former lover. Rissa, who had opposed Bagas and Indhira's relationship from the beginning, told Bagas not to play Indhira.

" Don't be so bad, Ris." Indhira tried to dismiss the accusations of Rissa on Bagas which was not true. Because that is not the reason that caused their relationship to end.

" But what a coincidence. When you broke up, the Crystal approached Bagas again. I think this was planned by Bagas, huh!" Rissa continues to argue that the breakup of Indhira and Bagas is related to Crystal who is currently approaching Bagas again.

" Just leave it, Ris. Now that I'm not the same Bagas anymore, he wants to be close to anyone, it doesn't matter to me." Indhira tried to harden her own heart. Although it feels broken, but he can not show it in front of Rissa and other friends.

" Ra, look, Crystal again pedekate the same Bagas. You're not afraid they're going to CLBK again?" chirps Teddy, Indhira's classmate, commenting on Crystal's current whereabouts near Bagas. It looks like Bagas and Crytal have started to attract the attention of other students around the basketball court.

" If CLBK Bagas is Crystal, great ... Mending Bagas equally Crystal, suitable, equally handsome and beautiful, equally rich people's children. Than the same Bagas toy now. Girls are not clear!" A female student who had just entered the cafeteria and heard Teddy's words immediately commented.

What a sentence spoken by the woman was painful in Indhira's heart. He often heard everyone making fun of him. However, the innuendo this time felt right stabbing in his heart. The words of the woman who said if she was only used as a toy for Bagas may be true.

" Heh, if you talk it's using the brain, don't be from the clip!" Rissa responds to a student named Amel.

" Lho, the fact is that your friend is nothing compared to Crystal. Like I said, Crystal socialite chick, your friend is a commoner. Yes it is far away ..." Painful sentences back heard in Indhira's ears make Indhira can only draw breath that feels tight.

" Once, Ris. Don't need to be treated. Let's go to class, yuk!" Not wanting to continue to hear insinuations from Amel, Indhira invites Rissa to leave the cafeteria immediately. I felt like the situation in the cafeteria was not conducive and I had to get out of there.

" Bagas, where's the pain? Here I dab the one that hit the ball earlier."

Bagas turned his head towards Crystal who was already holding the medicine he was going to use to treat it.

" You sit there first so I can treat the sick earlier." Crystal then pulled Bagas' arm to follow him sitting on the edge of the field.

" I'm fine, Crysal! Just getting hit by the ball doesn't matter to me." Bagas brushed off Crystal's hand, Bagas didn't want people to see him and Christal and gossiped about their current closeness.

" Why are you, anyway? I'll help you, Bagas." Crystal's face immediately frowned because of Bagas' rejection earlier.

" Because I don't need help." Bagas then walked away from Crystal and his friends who were still in the field.

" Bagas, where are you going? Here I treat first" cried Crystal who would have been upset because Bagas left her.

" Gas, you don't want to play anymore?" Even Bagas also did not pay attention to his friends who invited him to play basketball again.

Bagas stayed away from Crystal because he didn't want people to gossip about him and Crystal. Especially at this time the relationship between himself and Indhira began to stretch. It would be a warm rumor if he served Crystal and let Crystal treat earlier. Bagas feels fine after all. It was not his head that hurt, but it was his heart that was currently in pain.

Tak seperti biasanya, Bagas justru takut akan adanya gosip tentang kedekatannya dengan wanita lain. Karena dia takut itu akan menyakiti hati Indhira. Benar-benar aneh rasa hatinya saat ini. Padahal sekarang ini mereka sudah putus. Namun, dia tidak ingin melukai Indhira dengan adanya gosip dia bersama wanita lain. Padahal sebelumnya, dia bisa mudah mendekati wanita lain walaupun saat itu dia masih mempunyai pacar.

Bagas returned to class, knowing Indhira would return. And sure enough, Indhira was currently in her chair by leaning her head on the table leading to a view facing Rissa who was sitting next to her. Bagas now turned his head towards Rissa who was staring with a look of unfriendly eyes. Not strange actually, because Rissa is not the one who supports her relationship with Indhira.

Bagas knew Rissa was trying to protect Indhira. Rissa did not believe that she loved Indhira. Rissa always thinks that she just wants to play Indhira. He could not imagine if Rissa knew what had happened to Indhira at this time.
