Un - Break My Heart
31. Asking As a Friend

Shinta Pov's

I ran so down from Bang Rey's car, barged into Mama Syila's company keloby, not a mismanagement or forgetting the same age, but because it was too late to attend the meeting "Don't run" Bang Rey reminded, but I didn't mind because I didn't want to buy my time off.

When he arrived at the lobby it turned out that Koko and Putra were still there, it meant that his guest had not come. I could breathe a sigh of relief they asked to be pushed back for forty-five minutes, because they had just arrived in Bandung at dawn.

"Thankful then" I said as the Son told them of their delay. At least I did not embarrass Mama Syila for my delay, because my mother asked me to represent the family to welcome them, accompanied by Putra and Koko who since college have become Mama Syila's confidant.

"They have arrived" the son told us who stood up to greet Mr. Smith and his family. This morning they came as one of the shareholders and also a business developer in the company owned by Papa Jay who now belongs to Mama Syila as his heir.

"Welcome Mr. Smith" Koko who greeted first followed the Son. Don't forget I also greeted Mr. Smith and his family.

"Hai Shinta" someone said hello directly calling my name. I turned my face to see who called me. He's Mr.'s son. Smiths. I remember her face, but I forgot her name and it seems like I haven't seen her in a long time.

"Jonathan" he mentioned his name.

I could just stop him, he's Nath. The man who once asked me to be his girlfriend, he's back. I was in ninth grade, on the eve of graduation. He came carrying a bouquet of lily bungas standing in front of me all of a sudden.

"Sweetie, you want to be my girlfriend" she asked at the time.

"Boyfriend" beoku, I look at him offended.

"So my girlfriend as long as I'm here can?"

"What?" dating while he was in Bandung. How long was that? satuari, two days or one week and how about during close to him I became like alias in love. I can't imagine any more moments unfortunately left behind.

I finally ignored her request, a silly request in my opinion. We only met once and the second meeting he asked me to be his girlfriend. The culture in the country may be like that, I thought. I had to accept the flowers in her hand. Just receiving flowers doesn't mean I want to be her boyfriend. More crazy he gave me flowers every day, Mama Syila's residence to be full of various types of flowers. Almost every day he also asked me to accompany him on an adventure around Bandung.

Ten days passed and he returned to his country. I asked Papa Jay to accompany him to drive Jonathan and his family at Soekarno-Hatta Airport.

"Thank you for being my sweetie girlfriend" he said.

"Eh" I was surprised by his words, when I accepted him to be my girlfriend. He knows I'm the one who's lost telling his point.

"You received my gift, it means you accepted me as your girlfriend" she explained to me who was still silent thinking about the complexity she made.

"Can't be" I protested. Jonathan is not.

"I'm home, thanks for ten wonderful days, because you want to keep me company. Now we break, but later when I get back we connect. I love you sweetie"

At that moment I shook my head feeling funny with his behavior. "Promise, when I get back, you've got to go with me everywhere"

"Gelo" I said with a laugh.

Now he's back. I hope he forgets his crazy request. I'm married, how can I be his girlfriend. Although he could not be lied to, he was much more handsome now. I can only shake my head, why am I going crazy. I could only sigh and what would happen let it happen.

"Remember our promise" she whispered right in my left ear as we exited the elevator. "Promise? I never promised anything" I said. "Sweetie, we're dating again now" oohhh turns out he's still crazy just like he used to be.

"Gelo" was forced to issue the curse again.

"Yes I'm crazy, crazy crazy about you Shinta" oh good he already knows the meaning of gelo now, I chuckle remember the first time I said gelo, he laughed because I laughed at the time, and I'm sure he didn't understand the meaning of the word gelo. Fortunately, only I could hear the conversation.

Haven't had time to reply to her words, she immediately pulled me towards the meeting room. When he was about to enter, he released his hand. I thank you, he didn't embarrass me at this meeting. An hour passed, the meeting went well. Followed by the visit of Mr. Smith and his family to Papa Jay, after enjoying a coffee break.

Mr. Smith is standing in front of Papa Jay's crown. We are now in the cemetery. I could see his back shaking, he was stripping. Is there such a close relationship between them? I never knew how far the friendship between the two of them was.

My phone shook, I slightly moved away to receive the call that turned out to be from my beloved husband.

"Darling how the meeting went, did it go well?" Look at my husband's habit, he immediately asked me a question as soon as I received his call. What sucks is that the question isn't asking me.

"Yes, it went well. But Shinta's not good right now" I want to complain about Jonathan, but this is not the right time.

"What's up, baby? Where are you now?" must be fished first with a new bait he likes the state of his wife.

"It's okay Bang. Shinta is now at Papa Jay's funeral" Bang Rey asked me not to be sad. That's not the problem bang, but my shitty ten-day ex-boyfriend. Unfortunately I couldn't tell him.

"Sweetie" Why is he suddenly here, I'm upset when I see Jonathan behind me.

"Dear Shinta" Bang Rey called, I forgot that she was still connected to him.

"Who called sweetie?" bang Rey heard it.

"Ohh, that's Mr. Smith's family, calling his wife" Reyhan told me in my heart, I had to lie. "They're done, from here Shinta wants to take them to lunch" I ended my conversation with Bang Rey.

"For you" Jonathan gave me a rose, when I turned and he was standing right in front of me.

"Don't do something like this Nath, I'm a married woman" I said, I had to stop this silliness.

"I just gave you flowers, as a form of respect and thanks to me because you have received us well" I saw the honesty of Jonathan's words.

"It was also a sign that you agreed to accompany me while I was in Bandung" Jonathan said after I received the flowers he gave.

"Don't throw it away" Jonathan held my raised hand to throw the flower.

"I asked as a friend, please" his face was clear, well did Mama Syila also ask me to accompany them during their time in Bandung. With their records, not Jonathan.

I passed from before Jonathan and approached the others, who had already walked out of the cemetery first.
