To My Youth
CHAPTER 68
25 Minutes before the concert.
There was a long queue in front of the studio, just like Andheera and others did, they were all waiting in line to get into the Venue.
And far behind the queue looks Keenan as well as his two friends, Eunjiso and Joenathan are waiting in line while occasionally checking their respective phones.
“Andheera.” call his father who stood behind his daughter, Andheera turned her body to respond to her father's call.
“are you sure of your decision..? I mean dad.. dad still doesn't think you suddenly want to be an idol.” Said his father who still could not believe what his daughter said while on the way to the concert venue.
“I just want to have fun dad, can you.?” andheera's response was complete with a faint smile.
“iya but, what about your school, you sure can compensate..? don't you want to continue your studies in Korea.” Reza seemed so worried about Andheera's sudden decision that he could not understand.
“dad don't worry, just trust me.” He said with a widening smile, as if he wanted to tell his father if he really wanted this path.
“alah..dad will always support what you want to do.” he said as he gently rubbed his daughter's head with a warm smile engraved on her face.
As Andheera and her father chatted, Vivian and Tsuyu seemed very enthusiastic while occasionally shaking the army bomb they had borrowed from Andheera.
10 Minutes passed..
They also reached the Venue, the atmosphere inside was undoubtedly very crowded by the sea of humans with lightsticks they lit simultaneously.
The concert was opened by performances from Indonesian artists who enlivened the concert, then interspersed by the MC chat before finally reaching the top of the event, which is a performance that is very much awaited by fans.
The appearance of Korean boy band BTS, a boy band that was on the rise at that time, and increasingly crowded the atmosphere of Venue with the cries of the Army who were impatient waiting for the appearance of his idol.
“waaahh, Andheera why are they so beautiful.?” chirp his father who also enjoyed the concert while rocking his daughter's army bomb shake.
“they're pure men dad.!” exclaim Andheera for not accepting with his father's statement.
“YEAAAHHH.. KIM NAMJOON'S..KIM SEOKJIN.” shouted Tsuyu and Vivian, they both really enjoyed the concert so much that they could forget the sadness he had gone through last night.
Seen from the way they both shake the sway army bomb owned Andheera, making Andheera who saw it feel sorry for the fate of his Army bomb.
“don't be too tight..! you can ruin my lightstick.!” andheera exclaimed at both.
But they both seemed unconcerned with Andheera's babbling beside him, he still did what they wanted, shouting, singing even though only a few words at the end of the song, while shaking his lightsticks violently.
“AUGHH SHIT..!” Andheera.
Feeling ignored by his two friends, Andheera finally relented and returned to enjoy the song that was sung by boy band BTS.
Song FIRE - BTS.
“FIREEEEEEE.. FIREEEEE..!!!” shouted all the fans who are crazy about the appearance of his idol.
Till..
In the middle of the song there is an incident that makes Andheera at the peak of his emotions, there is one fan who desperately stood on his chair making Andheera difficult to see his idol because it was blocked by the crazy girl.
“OH SHITT..!!! B@#!GJJ#!!.” various kinds of swearing Andheera let out to express his frustration.
But the curse ended when Vivian's head of lighstick bounced right at the girl's head, making the girl finally go down while looking back for a moment to find out who had thrown it, while holding his head which still hurts due to the throw of the army bomb held by Vivian.
While Vivian herself did not realize that the lightstick she was holding had no head, but she only held the handle.
Andheera who witnessed clearly the incident could not stop his wide laughter, he felt funny and satisfied with the incident, because his revenge was avenged by his side.
A few hours later, the concert ended peacefully without any fan-fighting.
But when Andheera's group was about to turn around and follow the flow of the fans who would come out Venue, Andheera suddenly separated from the group, the girl was left quite far behind because there were some fans who prevented her from walking.
Meanwhile, not far from where he stood, Keenan was left behind from his entourage because his sneaker straps suddenly slipped off, making himself stop his steps for a moment to put his shoes back on.
Eunjiso and Joe did not realize that 1 friend was left behind, they both continued to walk without looking back.
Outside Venue..
“where is Andheera.?” his father, who noticed his daughter missing, continued to circulate his gaze amid the crowd of people who had just walked out of the studio.
“make beside om Reza..” sahut Vivian who also helped look for the existence of his sidekick.
“what's Andheera stuck inside.?” timpals Tsuyu.
“I will look for him.” said Vivian who was about to step her foot to go back in.
“no need, later Andheera comes out you are missing, we wait in the cafe ahead aja.” Said Reza, who then embraced her two daughter friends to walk away to the cafe across the street.
“ohh yes for a moment. om will tell driver om first, you guys go first.” Reza said as he stopped his steps before crossing the road, then turned back to the parking lot to meet the driver who was waiting.
“oke, later I will contact Andheera.” sahut Vivian who then go back in tandem with Tsuyu.
Reza simply replied with a nod.
Returning to the Venue, Keenan was passing his loose shoes, without him noticing that Andheera was walking past him.
Unlike before, which only left a trace of the aroma of parfumenya, this time Andheera left an additional trace, namely his bracelet that fell right on top of Keenan sneakers.
Suddenly Keenan was surprised, again he smelled a familiar perfume plus a bracelet that fell on his sneakers, making his gaze immediately lifted and looking for the figure he expected.
But because of the many fans who jostled each other, making Keenan unable to find the figure he was looking for.
After he finished putting his shoes and put a bracelet in his shirt pocket, he rushed to find the figure to try to break through the crowd in front of him.
“Andheera.!!” call Keenan when he gets frustrated because he doesn't find him, hoping someone turns around when he shouts his name.
But no one stopped or turned around, making himself continue to run small and try to find it until out Venue.
“Keenan..Where have you been, I thought you fainted inside.” exclaimed Joe who came along with Jiso from behind.
As soon as Keenan was out of the building, the two of them immediately walked over to his friend.
“you why..? search what.?” joe continued, confused to see his friend as if he was looking for something.
“you go home first.” said Keenan who still can't stop circulating his gaze in all directions.
“why..? what are you looking for, who knows we can help.” Timbrung Jiso offered to help Keenan.
“no.. You can leave without me, okay..” said Keenan then left his two friends who were still confused by Keenan's unusual attitude.
“it looks like I heard someone's name..” Joe murmured while scratching the back of his head that actually does not itch.
“Andheera..” Jiso's response along with a thin smile etched on her pretty face.
“aahh yes right..! Btw, Andheera who.?” joe asked plainly while looking at the face of his female friend.
“love the monkey, we coffee first yuk there cafe tuh opposite.” Take Jiso while walking first to the cafe, then followed by Joe who followed his steps from behind.
“you will not return to the agency.?” joe asked on the way to the cafe.
“later, out of coffee.” answers that walk a step in front of Joe.
In front of the cafe.
When Eunjiso was about to push the door of the cafe, there was a girl next to him who first pushed the door until Jiso's vision reflexively looked at him.
Not only the look of the girl who is very beautiful but the aroma of a familiar parfume is the focus, too, it was as if he was remembering the scent for a while he kept looking at it until the girl reached his desk.
“you won't go in.?” joe's voice standing behind him was able to disperse his focus.
“hah. yes.. come..” say it with a stammer, then go inside and choose to sit at a table not far from the table of the girl he had met.
“you want coffee as usual right.?” asked Joe who was about to order coffee for his friend who was more sitting, Jiso only responded with a small nod while occasionally glancing at the girl's table earlier.
“you're stuck inside.?” vivian asked, looking at Andheera's face.
“hmm..” he replied and drank the drink that had been ordered in advance by Vivian.
“where are you going.?” asked his father after sipping several times the coffee he ordered.
“how if a search in the city park, the atmosphere is very supportive at all is not.?” exclaimed Tsuyu who voiced his opinion when in fact he could not ride a bicycle..
“bener tuh, we can rent a bicycle and walk around the city park, then we can go home to buy a snack on the edge of the park.” Vivian added complete with an enthusiastic look.
“okee ayoo, how about you.?” asked his father who looked at his daughter's face as if he was waiting for a response from his daughter.
Didn't want to say much Andheera only responded with a nod still while sucking his ice Americano coffee.
“where's your bracelet.?” vivian asked who realized that the bracelet had disappeared from his friend's wrist.
Hearing that Andheera immediately checked his arm, and sure enough the bracelet did not exist
“entah.. I think the bracelet fell while it was crammed in Venue.” replied Andheera casually.
“heol..!! how could you eliminate my gift.?” vivian grumbled that was upset that Andheera could never keep something well.
“that's your fault, for not locking it properly, so the bracelet dropped.” Andheera felt completely innocent.
“YAAA..!!” vivian snapped which made some cafe visitors glance at him with a uncomfortable look.
Reza apologized for representing his daughter's friend, who was in a rage.
“already, you guys if the storm do not see the place, shy aja.” Said Reza who tried to mediate between the two.
While Tsuyu who witnessed the commotion from his two friends was even smiling himself as if he was comforted by the childish attitude of his two friends.
***
In the city park.
As previously planned, after they took a short break while enjoying the coffee they ordered, they all headed straight to the city park to play bicycles.
As the others are seen picking up the bike they want, Tsuyu just stands up and keeps looking at her friends who have already been riding her bikes.
“why are you quiet, you didn't pick your bike.?” ask Andheera.
“ahh yes, you can not ride a bike yes, if so.” said Vivian.
“sini ride with om only, Tsuyu.” cut Reza complete with a smile they also glanced towards the back seat of his bike.
It was with pleasure that the little girl ran over to Andheera's father and sat in the passenger seat, wrapping her arms around his father's stomach, as if she felt that the grown man was her own father.
“let’sss gooooo.!!” exclaim Vivian who started his bicycle trip around the city park and followed by Andheera and his father who goes casually.
“THE LOSER MUST GRANT THE WINNER WISHES.!!” yelled Vivian again trying to compete with her sidekick.
“DON'T DREAM, WHEN HAVE YOU EVER WON FROM ME.!!” reply Andheera no less loud.
Meanwhile his father who was left behind could only shake his head, and Tsuyu himself seemed to enjoy the warmth of the moment, as if he had found a new family who loved him.
Until you can forget for a moment the problem that is happening to him..
The girl hoped that time would stop at this time so that she would only remember her happy time with her new family, not the dark times that have always haunted her to this day.
