So In Love
EP. 40. Outside of Conjecture


********


Shien undoes his intention of buying shoes for the Sky. It wasn't because the shoe models weren't good or Shien didn't have money. But, it was because Shien had yet to figure out the current size of the Sky shoe. Shien would check it out first, then he bought it.


As a result, he chose to go back and approached Shanna whether her brother had finished choosing the shoes he wanted or not.


“Kak, have you finished yet?” Shien was immediately stunned as he approached Shanna. His gaze focused on the figure of a girl who looks fashionable like a model, while throwing fierce gazes at each other with her brother.


Clearly, Shien did not like the girl.


Hearing Shien's voice, the girl looked up. His eyes looked surprised, barely believing who he was seeing. But a moment later, a grinning smile fell on both corners of his lips.


“Long time no see, Shienna.” The girl looked at Shien deeply.


“It looks like just yesterday you left after killing Shawn. Ehh, now go home again. Still capable of life turns out.” Then the girl accused.


Shien felt his heart being hit by an enormous stone. He looked at the girl with an angry look, his hands clenched tightly on both sides of his thighs. Shien had never bullied the girl, but why attack her like this?


“Ehh, can you say that too, huh? I guess you won't be able to talk forever.” The girl smiled mockingly.


“Enough, Terry. . .” Shanna's roar of rage had already reached the breaking point. Luckily the shoe store was quiet and there were no other customers, so the screams did not attract attention.


Terry's.


Mama's half-cousins Shanna and Shien, who since childhood, often bully them if they meet. The girl was so arrogant and disrespectful. Shien did not expect, it turns out that the bad nature was attached tightly until Terry grew up. Moreover, Shien heard Shanna's story if Terry always bothers and tells Shanna stupid as long as they are in the same school, precisely until Shanna Junior High. Until finally, Shanna chose to enter a different High School with Terry so that the girl did not bother him anymore. Even Shanna was forced to give up not going to school in High School her dreams just to avoid Terry.


It's not that Shanna can't fight, it's just that he's too lazy if he has to serve Terry constantly.


I don't know what made the girl happy to bully them. Neither Shanna nor Shien, they both did not understand.


Terry watched Shanna and Shien take turns, then said with a defiant look. “Why? It's reality. Why do you remember him all?”


Shanna clasped the shoe tightly. Want it he stuck the heels 12 cm from the stiletto he held to Terry's head. Ahh, no. Cramming shoes into the girl's mouth seemed better to make her stop talking.


“Ups, I forgot that you are twins who always protect each other.” Continue with a mocking smile that has not receded since. “You guys are a matching pair of twins.”


“Yang one. . .” Terry walked slowly closer to Shien. “Very smart. But it's a pity that the sickness. His entire life can only trouble people, even to the point of making his own brother lose his life.”


Shien closed his eyes while sighing deeply, in order to find patience there. He really didn't want to serve Terry, Shien just wanted to get out of there and go home.


“Silence, Terry. . .” Shanna said grimly. It's okay if Terry bullies him, but Shanna won't let the girl bully her beloved sister.


However, the girl seemed to really want to bully and annoy the two. Not heeding Shanna's warning, Terry whispered in Shien's ear. “Om same Aunt must have tired ngurusin and embarrassed to have children with illness like elo. The food during this time you were exiled to America.”


Then a sly smile rang from both corners of her lips that were polished by that bright red lipstick.


Terry's words instantly made all the bad memories that Shien was trying to let go back to the surface. But, Shien did not want to be affected. The girl immediately neutralized her emotions and remained calm.


“Terry. . .” Shanna Samakin growled, her eyes full of anger. However, Terry was deaf, as if he did not want to stop him. The girl turned her head and smiled full of scorn towards him.


“And the other one. . .” Terry noticed Shanna's performance from top to bottom with a strange look. Especially when looking at her hair color. “Very stupid, until PTN college can not, especially abroad. Ck, a lot of money is also useless if stupid.”


Shanna's chest felt like it had been hit by something. The feeling of goiter had no idea which point, clearly, Shanna was already half-souled. But his lips are still tight. Wondering where the girl could bully him.


“Ahh, yes I forgot. You should also be in Melbourne and feel the thrill of studying Communication Science you want, right? I must have been very cool at that time if I could go to college with my cousin there.” Terry's smile grew louder.


Shanna's expression tensed for a moment. Those were not the times that Shanna liked. How not, if his ability becomes the main barrier in achieving dreams. Shanna is very good at languages and sports. But, Shanna's ability is very low in other academic fields, so her dream to study Communication Science in Melbourne is just a dream.


Because as much as Shanna tried, she still could not qualify to be able to study there.


Shanna had a year down and because of it. Until one day, Papa and Mama managed to make him rise again. Shanna's communication and language skills are very good, his parents suggested that Shien go back to college and major in International Relations at one of the domestic Private Universities in Jakarta. Although with great difficulty, Shanna was finally able to study there and ended up being the owner of a tutoring and teacher at once after graduation.


But even so, Shanna's tutoring place is included in the 10 ranks of bona fide tutoring places and highly recommended in Bandung, so many parents entrust their children to study there.


Shanna held back her gnawing. Don't want to be hooked and embarrass yourself in a public place like this. Slowly, Shanna turned her irritation into laughter.


“Should, anyway, gitu.” Shanna grimaced a little.


“But, I didn't miss college there at all.” Shanna then smiled at her smile. “In fact, who studied in Melbourne does not guarantee his quality better than here.”


A smile full of arrogance on both corners of Terry's lips slowly subsided. Shanna's words were enough to make the girl puffed out.


“Oyy, thump Ivy.” Shanna then threw her gaze at Shien, then put the shoes in her hands back to where they had been slowly.


“Your brother is right, right?” Shanna continued after putting the shoes back on.


Shien exhaled his breath rough, actually lazy to serve Terry. But the brother dragged him. Though, Shien wanted to let the girl continue speaking until her mouth froth.


“I think so.” Shien said with his cold attitude. “Maybe he's a failed graduate. Or maybe not graduated at all.”


Terry snarling. His hands look clenched. It could be that a quiet and less sociable child like Shien oppresses him like this.


“Because if not so, there is no way she could be a bitchy, annoying girl, and her communication skills are more than bad. If not a graduate fails or does not graduate, there is one more possibility. Terry never went to school there at all.” Shien looked at Terry with an extraordinary scornful look.


Shanna smiled with satisfaction. He deliberately threw a question at his sister. Shien's scathing mouth really made Terry goofy. Ck, who told Terry to bully them?


“Pantesan aja, you are just a presenter of a variety show whose content is ninyir all. Ck, free school far away if the ends of the profession lo kayak so.” Timpal Shanna then, made Terry's face even more flushed because it held back upset. He did not expect, the two twin girls could corner him like this.


“You. . .” Terry growled in annoyance, clenched his hands until his knuckles were visible, as if ready to throw fists at the two girls in front of him.


“Why? We're not wrong, are we?” Sambar Shanna, completely satisfied to be able to turn things around until Terry was out of words to reply.


“Udah yuk, Shi, we're home. Tomorrow I'll be back here again.” Shanna then pulls Shien's hand to take him away from Terry.


However, the girl stopped her steps for a moment when there was something she had forgotten to say. “Soalnya if continue to mengeladenin him, maybe tomorrow we can enter a news headline whose title Buyer Nyinyir Terry Involved Cekcok with Cousin Tiri. It's funny, Shi. Our beautiful faces will be exposed. Could be more famous than him later we.”


“Stop talking to her!” Shien coldly uttered with a condescending look towards Terry. His words seemed to contain another meaning that means that Shanna is just a waste of time if she continues to talk to Terry. The two then twisted his body to leave Terry who almost came out the horn of the head and smoke from his ears.


No. gabe. Terry would not let the two girls leave him feeling satisfied. Terry grabs the stilettos lying on the storefront before Shanna and Shien actually step away.


“Shien, Shanna.” Call someone, the smile as bright as the back of both corners of his lips, indicating that the person is very happy with their accidental meeting. “You guys are here too?”


Shanna and Shien were quite surprised to see the two men before them, yet only one was striking their attention. While Terry's hand movements stopped, forgetting the intention to throw the shoes.


A man in a white shirt with an outerwear. It is obvious that the man hangs out after work. He is tall, his body is proportional, and his comma hair is still neatly arranged to slightly display his wide paripurn forehead. Sweet smile. And his face, can be in the category of very handsome. As he spoke, his voice sounded so deep in the ear, as if a single word he spoke was like lullaby.


“Kak Langit, sis Albi. . .”


Everyone turned their heads towards the source of the voice, staring at Terry in confusion. So is Shanna and Shien who are astonished by Terry who looks pretentious with Sky and Albi.


“This you. Bener, right?” Terry asked excitedly, as if to make sure his vision was not wrong. The girl then put her shoes back into the storefront.


Brushing his hair for a moment to make sure the crown of his pride was still in a neat condition, Terry then approached the two handsome men, even to hit Shien's body for blocking his way.


Shien snorted in annoyance as he rubbed his shoulders, as if Terry's body hitting him left dirt.


“Hai, how are you, brother? Didn't expect to see you again.” Terry thrust out his hand, making Shanna and Shien gawk badly. However, neither Albi nor Sky would welcome him. I don't feel like I recognize the girl. Terry slowly lowered his hand.


“You know him, Lang?” Shanna asked curiously.


“Eung. . .” The sky touched his nape, then shook his head in doubt. Shanna who saw Sky's reaction immediately threw a mocking look at Terry.


“She often appears on TV, you know. So a handyman, uhh Host.” Imbuh Shanna, but the sky again shook his head.


I swear by anything, Shanna wanted to laugh out loud right now. Especially when he saw Terry's face that looked irritated.


If Shien had been Terry, he would have been ashamed. Even often appeared on television, did not make Terry known to everyone.


“I Terry, your juniors at SMA.” Terry wanted to remind me.


“We've done dramas together.” Terry's gaze was directed at Albi.


The man glared. It's been too long. And if you remember it, it doesn't really matter. Albi had indeed participated in the drama stage in High School first, but where he could remember all the players in the performance.


“Ohh, who is a witch?” Albi chirps origin, considering the stage of the drama played is the story of the Sleeping Princess and the Wicked Witch.


“Pfft. . .” Shanna held back her laughter. It's very suitable. Terry just cheated on him.


“It looks like brother Albi forgot.” Terry said with a forced smile.


Albi chuckled softly. “Maybe you forgot. Nice to meet you. Glad to meet my alma mater.”


“And the Sky. We used to be a team in an English debate competition between schools. Same brother Orange also.” Terry's gaze turned to the Sky. And this caught Shien's attention. The girl highlighted the Sky with a questionable look. The understanding sky immediately shook his head, indicating that the man did not feel familiar with Terry.


“So, yes?” The sky hesitates. There are too many races that he has participated in, and of course with different teams in every field of the race. So, how could Heaven remember all the people that one team had with him. Unless the man is close to him, Heaven will remember.


“Ahh, I think I'm the only one who remembers.” Terry said, looking clumsy.


“Although do not remember, but actually said Albi. Nice to meet a friend who is an alma mater.” Welcome to the sky, beyond expectations. “More people are beautiful like you. Thanks for remembering us.”


Shien who heard that widened his eyes, barely believing what he had heard just now.


“Are you serious?” Shien growled inwardly as he turned towards the Sky with a look of disbelief and annoyance at once.


While Terry who was praised like that was clearly happy not to be upset. Shanna shuddered and throbbed at once looking at him. You flirtatious jerky.


“One is F4 SMA Genius, and the other is SMA Genius. Everyone won't forget the times, sis.” Said Terry while tucking his hair behind his ear with a graceful movement as possible.


“Haha, can be. Ohh, yes Terry. You're Shanna's friend Shien?” Ask Sky curiously.


“Not. We're cousins. Here's more shopping with.”


Shanna and Shien gawked.


Shopping together? Since when are they that close.


“Ohh, yes. Next time can we go together? I heard, you guys work at the same hospital.” Terry took out a business card from his wallet, then handed it to Albi and Sky.


Both of Shien's eyes were still lackeys glaring at Sky with sharp gazes, hoping he didn't receive the business card. And damn it. The sky accepted it.


“Wahh, the news of handsome people is easily widespread, yes?” Said Albi, as if there was a sense of admiration for himself. The man then read Terry's business card.


“And did not expect to also meet Professional Host here. Famous, dong? Sorry didn't know before.” Albi after reading Terry's business card.


“You could say so.” Terry seemed embarrassed. This made Shanna who saw him want to scratch his face.


“Labour nyinyir also.” Shien, already upset with the Sky, then took the business card from the hands of Heaven and Albi, then squeezed it to formless and stomped it mercilessly.


Shien's expression and mannerisms thus attracted Shanna's attention which immediately scrunched her forehead in wonder. Feeling Shien's reaction was too overwhelming. But Shanna thinks it might be because Shien has gone hyacinth on Terry, just like her, so Shien does that.


Terry just blinks his mouth in disbelief. Had he not kept the image, Terry sure would have grabbed the hair and shouted at the girl right now.


Shortly after, Shien left. Not forgetting, he stepped on the feet of Heaven first to make the man complain of pain.


“Ups, sorry. I didn’t mean it.” Shien spoke guiltlessly and passed by, followed by Shanna who was tailing behind him.


The sky that saw Shien's strange demeanor and got such treatment only looked at her back with a puzzled look.


********


Shanna rolled her eyes lazily while shaking her head as soon as she saw the figure of Reno who was even asleep on the sofa. It was only fitting that the boy had not come to him and Shien. In fact, the commotion was enough to attract the attention of the shopkeeper. Ahh, maybe if there is a war, Reno will not be aware and engrossed in playing in the dreamland. Or maybe even killed while sleeping, Reno will still not be aware.


“Reno, wake! Let's go home.”
