The Journey of Love of the Monty Girl
I Accept Your Challenge

"What else is...?" naziah asked, getting upset. And this... Can you please let go??!!!" she continued, pointing with her eyes, Rendi's hand tightly grasping her wrist.

Hearing that, instead of releasing his handrails. The rendition even further tightened its grip. However, not one bit made Naziah grimace in pain.

"I'll take it off. But you have to promise not to go!" press Rendi

"I'm not going anywhere. I just want to go to my room." replied Naziah trying to be patient.

"No. Please come back to sit in your chair??! Otherwise, I will follow you all the way to your room!!!"

Please Rendi with a soft voice. At the end of the sentence, full of threats.

"Crazy!!!" yaziah threw away his sight.

"As much as you want to say what I am! But I never mess with my words. So... do you obey, or do you rebel??? Which one did you choose?" answer and ask Rendi to make a choice.

"God!!! Just test my patience." said Naziah in a small voice.

"According Zi'!!! I want to say something important and serious with you." back Rendi pleaded with a softening of her voice. Without removing his hand from Naziah's

"Hmmm!!!" Naziah gave a rough sigh. "alright. Now, take your hands off?!!" answer and tell Naziah.

Rendi did not heed Naziah's word. He just loosened his hand a little. Then gently pull on Naziah's wrist. And lead him back to sit on the patio chair.

Got a random treatment Rendi like that. Naziah looks resigned. In his heart, Naziah was eager to snap the head of the person who was holding his hand.

After Naziah and Rendi again sat in their original seats. Anto stood up from his seat. While saying;

"I took a shower first huh Zi'..?! I was so excited, I didn't shower this morning. He..he.." said Anto while grinning. "I'll excuse you Ren', Aldi...?!" he said goodbye to Rendi and Aldi.

But, when exactly to say goodbye to Aldi. Anto several times gestured with the clench of his eyes. While putting his feet into the house.

Aldi who understands Anto's cue. Finally come to stand and say goodbye to Rendi alone.

"God!!! My phone is missing on the car dashboard. I'll take it first huh Ren'?!!" aldi

He stood up and stepped towards his car. And left Rendi and Naziah on the terrace. Instead of taking his phone. Arriving in the car, Aldi immediately turned on his phone and played games.

It turns out Anto and Aldi deliberately moved from their respective seats. For the sake of giving privacy space to Rendi and Naziah to talk together.

"Eh, how come they're on the go anyway...?" naziah asked in protest. After a while, he realized. If on the terrace it's just him and Rendi.

"Let it go." replied Rendi indifferently and relaxed.

Inwardly, Naziah cursed his friends and companions. Because he left her with Rendi.

"Based on all of you best friends and accursed friends. How dare they leave me with this strange man."

Seeing Naziah silent and sitting sweetly in his place. The joints slightly raised the b*k*ng and shifted the chair. To be a little docked with the table that became the separation between him and Naziah.

The sudden Naziah heartbeats beat faster than usual for no reason. To cover his heart like that. Naziah pressed his chest by folding his hands in front of his chest. And trying to control himself.

Before saying so, Naziah glanced at Rendi's face. Which looks strong and authoritative.

"Zi', I want to learn to know you more closely." replied Rendi without further ado.

"Well?!!! Meanin?" naziah asked half-surprised with a deep frown, puzzled.

"I mean, I want to know all about you, more than your friends know you." said Rendi.

"What the hell is Ren'? How gaJe!!!" naziah was getting confused. "If you just want to be like my best friend. You don't need to know me more than anyone. Enough---" he continued truncated.

Because Rendi immediately cut off Naziah's speech. "That's because I don't want to be just friends or friends. But if God permits, I want you to be my life partner of the world and Ziah's afterlife." explained Rendi.

Hearing Rendi's statement like that. For a moment Naziah fell silent while looking at Rendi's face flat. Then, in the next second Naziah laughed out loud. He covered his mouth with both hands. For some reason, hearing that statement her stomach felt tickled.

Rendi who saw the reaction of Naziah so. Being confused and upset yourself. Because Naziah just thought he was joking.

"You think I'm kidding??!"said Rendi. And Naziah just nodded his head. While trying to suppress his laughter.

"I've never even been this serious about expressing my feelings to the woman I just met, Naziah." continued Rendi seriously.

Naziah immediately fell silent and improved the way he sat that was irregular.

"You serious???" ask Naziah beo. "I thought you were kidding Ren'... Sorry...??!" continued.

"No need to apologize. Because I don't need your forgiveness. All I need is your answer." said Rendi getting serious.

"But Ren', I'm not ready for that" Naziah replied.

"Reason...?" asked Rendi for an explanation.

"For now, I still want to be like this Ren'. Moreover, my college is in dire need of my attention and time in the next few months. So, I don't want to share my attention and time anymore. And that's my main reason for not being in a relationship more than a friend says with any man." Naziah explained

"Zi'.., you don't have to share your attention and time with me. Because I will share my attention and time with you." said Rendi again reassured Naziah.

"No need to fight Ren'. I will not be consumed with your dreadful seduction. I've heard enough chatter from some of the men who have been seducing me" said Naziah

"Ssh.." hiss Rendi. He seemed to bite his lower lip. Because gales heard Naziah's answer that remained tight with his stance. "Zi', if you still think I'm just wooing and flirting. Then I'll just go see your parents." he continued

"Why do you want to see my parents?" asked Naziah in a slightly cynical tone.

"To ask you directly" said Rendi not kidding.

"Heh???! It's up to you. Just do it if you can. I'll see?!!!" naziah said with a defiant tone.

"alright. You just wait for news from me. I'll take your challenge!" balas Rendi's. "Come in and rest!!! I'll go home first. Assalamu'alaikum?!" he immediately gave the order and said goodbye to go home. And took the time to show his charming smile to Naziah.

"Yes, Wa'alaikum greetings." replied Naziah and only smiled very thinly to return Rendi's smile.

With a little heavy heart, Rendi stepped out of Naziah's rented house. And get into his car that there is Aldi waiting for him since.

Before driving forward his car, Aldi took the time to sound the car horn. For a sign of farewell to Naziah and his companions in the house. And the faithful Naziah sat in his chair. Just throwing a big smile at Aldi behind the car window.
