Who wins my heart?

"After this I hope you already consider me more than your friend Ran, tell me whatever it is, I'll listen to it, while buying a bottle of milk"

"Huh? What does that mean?"

"We're friends now?" Nico said while showing his little finger.

Rania smiled and pinky-fingered Nico back.

"Thank you, Nic."

"What a tiny little finger! Is Fiza stupid not to see this cute little girl or is he blind?" Nico said endlessly.

Rania gently punched Nico's shoulder as she laughed.

"You're too much, let's go home," she said.

Rania felt the tightness in her chest disappear for a moment at Nico's joke.

Arriving home, Rania took Nico's bag and said thank you.

"Remember, don't feel alone!" she said before leaving Rania's house.

Rania felt lonely again when she entered her house, the clock showed 9 pm, the atmosphere of the house was quiet, mom and dad were already in the room, while her brother was still outside.

Rania sat alone in front of the TV, while watching TV, she stared blankly at the 40 inch screen in front of her.

It was not her who was watching but the TV that was watching Rania who was busy with her thoughts.

Rania lay on the sofa in a state of chaos. Soon she fell asleep in front of the TV.

The next morning Rania woke up because the light from the window slit shone on her face. She woke up in the clothes she wore last night.

"Why here?" she muttered.

"What's wrong with you? You're usually never like this, watching TV alone until you fall asleep," asked Ozi, who was sitting in the chair next to her.

Rania rubbed her itchy eyes.

"I don't know," she replied and went into her room.

Papa, mama and her brother looked at each other, sensing something odd about the youngest who had never been like this.

"She's tired of her coursework, just let it go," mom said.

"It's strange mom, he's never been like this, maybe he's gone through a breakup?" said Ozi.

"No way, we've never even seen him dating," said papa.

"It's true, it's also amazing that at her age when she's usually busy dating, this Nia isn't"

Laura just listened to what her eldest son and her husband had to say.

Later that evening Laura found her daughter in her room.

"Nia..." she called.

Opening the door slowly, she saw Rania lying with her back to the door.

"What's wrong?" Laura asked.

Rania turned to her mother with eyes puffy from crying.

"Fiza ma... there's already a girl," said Rania in a hoarse voice.

"When did you see it?"

"Last night." "Mom, now in addition to being beautiful, you also have to be rich, right? The girl is rich, the stuff is branded, Nia becomes inferior..." she sobbed.

Laura couldn't bear to see her heartbroken daughter like this. She hugged Rania gently and said.

"Fiza doesn't deserve you dear, you have to be able to move on, don't dissolve in sadness like this, there are still many other men" she said.

Rania released her mama's embrace and smiled nervously.

"Nia is trying to move on, but Nia's feelings are still the same" she said.

"Why, why do you love someone who doesn't love you?" asked mama, hurt.

"It's too late mom... 2 years is not a short time, Nia has fallen so deeply in love with him, let this be Nia's business, mom, don't get angry again and tell Nia to stop. Because I won't be able to," she explained.

Laura left Rania alone in the room, she felt it was useless to advise Rania in any way, because Rania was right, this had already happened, if she stopped it this was too much too, so it would not be easy for Rania.
