The Seed of my Friend's Beloved
Chapter 32

Melati had finished putting on her face. In keeping with his promise to Reza. Tonight Melati is going out with the man. Melati looked at her face in the mirror. The appearance is almost perfect with thin makeup added with a body-fitting shirt with short culottes.

Somehow, Melati suddenly felt something empty inside her. Maybe because this is the first time he came out the night after knowing the actions of Kevin to Regina made Melati remember his togetherness with Kevin.

Regina looked at her dresser. At the table was still Kevin's perfume. The perfume she sprayed onto Regina's body that night. The scent that convinced Kevin that the woman he was sleeping with was Melati.

Melati grabbed the perfume ever since Kevin was no longer her lover. Melati never wears that perfume again. Melati observed the perfume. In the past, every time he came out. Melati put on the perfume because Kevin really liked the smell. But tonight, Melati will remove any trace of Kevin in her life. Melati plans to give the perfume to her Aunt who works at her house.

Regina opens the door after getting a message from Reza if the man is already in front of the house.

"Am I late?" reza asked with a sweet smile on her face. The man put his hand in his pants pocket and leaned on his motorcycle.

"Yet. We're on time Za. Let's leave!.

"Wait a minute" said Reza. The man approached Melati and the hand held the door shut so as not to be shut by Melati.

"You want to make coffee at Za's house?" ask Melati. Jasmine chuckles.

"Yes, let's save. We're going on a fake date. Just go out for a photo. So make coffee before leaving. Coffee is at home, right?"

"none. Go in first Za, I'll go to the stall for a little coffee."

"Geez, that's who you are Mel is. I'm kidding. I'd like permission for your mom to take her daughter on a fake date."

Melati laughed, Melati invited Reza into the house and took the man to Lena's mama's room.

"Ma, Reza wants to talk, ma" said Melati. Although the health of Mama Lena did not show good development. Melati always invites Mama Lena to talk every day. The woman could only stare without answering.

"Tante, me and Melati come out first huh. At ten, Melati must be home."

Melati smiles, though Reza is a fake boyfriend but the man knows he respects his parents. One more advantage of Reza compared to Kevin. All the time with Kevin. Not once, Kevin behaved like Reza did tonight before they left the house.

"Actually without permission is also okay Za, anyway my mother can not answer or it could not hear what you said earlier," jasmine said after coming out of Lena's mama's room.

"Tante Lena does hurt Mel, but it's good that every time you leave the house you have to say goodbye to him. Sick or healthy, as a child, you have to appreciate him even in a small way."

Jasmine nodded her head. Reza is the son of his best friend Regina. Not wrong, Regina always prides the man in front of her turns out Reza is not only smart but good character. After Regina, then Sasa who will be the lucky woman has Reza later. At the end of this, Reza and Sasa are very close. Often walk together and also eat together in the campus cafeteria.

"Your motor is Za?" jasmine asked when she just realized in her yard there was a large motorbike typical of young people.

"No. Borrowing a neighbor."

"It's so good your neighbor Za."

"Yes. Just as good as you."

"Hush, my ears will be fine if you praise." Reza laughs. The man was already sitting on the big bike and Melati was ready to go up on the bike.

Melati movement stopped. Jasmine breathed her heavy breath. Melati stared dislikefully at someone sitting in a car that had just stopped not far from her yard. That man is Kevin. He purposely passed from that street only to see Melati.

"Speed Ride Mel. Hugged my waist so that the man believed we were lovers" Reza said slowly. Apparently, Reza also saw Kevin's whereabouts there.

"Huggle Mel."

"You want to steal a chance, Za. Look out for you!. Without hugging either. He must believe we're dating. Come, move!.

Reza laughs. And Melati punched the man's back.

Kevin saw Reza and Melati's intercession. Hearts warming. Kevin vented his anger by holding the steering wheel firmly with a sharp look at the fake lover.

Reza was running the bike as Kevin was about to get out of his car. Seeing the motor speed up. Kevin dropped his intention to get out of the car. The man also runs his car fast because he intends to follow Melati and Reza.

"Where are we going?" yell Jasmine. The quiet streets make Reza free to run the motorbike.

Reza did not answer. Right now he was also thinking about the place they were going to. Kevin followed them from behind. Compared to the speed of the car. It could be, Reza made Kevin lose track of them. But Reza deliberately slowed down the speed of the bike. Like their purpose for dating fake. Reza wants to show Kevin that he and Melati really have a relationship.

"Za, listen to me?" yell Melati again.

"Listen, but look behind you. There's your ex."

Melati looked back. Turns out right, Kevin's car followed them.

"At the front take the road to the left!" whispered Jasmine. Melati deliberately whispered to look friendly from inside Kevin's car. Reza nodded his head. And arriving at the intersection, Reza actually took the road to the left.

Melati keeps directing Reza. In the end, Melati asks Reza to stop in front of a house.

"Whose house is this?" ask Reza after the bike stops.

"Kevin and Regina's house."

"What?" ask Reza. He looked back as Kevin got out of his car.

"What's up here. Want to show off your affection?" asked Kevin fiercely.

"Coulda. Couldn't Vin. We will definitely be visiting your house. Can you?"

"can't. Get out of here right now," throw Kevin out. But Melati just got out of her car. Her phone is already connected to Regina's cell phone number.

"Re, I'm in front of your house. Open your door!" jasmine said as soon as the call was connected.

"Dear, Regina let us meet at her house, "took Melati while gently pulling Reza's hand. Reza smile. Reza embraces Melati walking towards the door of Kevin's house.

Kevin clenched his hand. Suppose it wasn't Melati who made her angry at this moment. You can be sure the curse and the curse will come out of his mouth. The affection that is still in Kevin's heart for Melati makes the man can not do anything.

"Mel, you're coming. I'm happy," cried Regina. He spread his hand with a sweet smile on his lips. And the smile faded away realizing that Reza was with her best friend. Meeting with Melati was his longing while meeting with Reza was his suffering. If possible, for now Regina did not want to meet the man.

"Sister," Regina told Kevin. The man approached Regina and gave her the bag. Kevin kissed his wife's forehead when Regina took the bag out of his hand. Kevin deliberately did that to make Melati jealous.

Apparently Jasmine is not jealous. Melati saw what Kevin did to Regina with a smile.

Regina was surprised by her husband's sweet treatment. Kevin really wanted to cry. He saw Melati's gaze was not what it used to be to him. Kevin can feel if the love in Melati's eyes is no longer there for him.
