My Past Girl

After eating the meatballs, Raihan deliberately invited Naura to go around the town square for a while. Before going home.

On foot, the two of them passed the street vendors lining the side of the road. "Don't want to buy snacks to make at home?" Bargaining Raihan saw the number of sellers of various snacks.

Nora shook her head. "No need, Mas. I'm already full, really, "rejected the girl, not feeling well.

"If you want it, buy it. Who knows tonight you will be hungry, right? Good for trouble. Instead of eating instant noodles, it's not good for your health." Raihan's advice is gentle.

Naura chuckled, "You're a nag too, huh? I thought it would be cool and cold," said the girl casually.

"Wow, you messed up. Do you think I'm stupid like that? But if it's my brother, that's the kind of person. Cold and bitter. Especially with a girl who chases him, the risk of a handsome person if he says, "said Raihan while shaking his head.

Remembering the behavior of his only brother. Yes, Rico does have a temper that can be said to be wrong with his rude, curt, and cold attitude towards a girl. Especially if he doesn't like it.

"Oh, Mas Raihan has a brother. Do you mean boy? If you look at Mas's story earlier." Naura responded while hugging her own body.

Raihan nodded in approval. "Yes, that's why I said my Mother was the most beautiful in my family. But it seems you are the same age as your brother. Yes, it's not surprising, if many people like him, he's really handsome. You'll definitely be thrilled with him later if you meet him," said the man.

Naura shook his head, chuckling. "Yeah, no. Falling in love is not always a matter of face, Mas. Because the heart doesn't know who the choice is. So for me, the heart is more important than the face," Naura commented with a small laugh.

Raihan nodded in agreement. "Yeah, it's useless if you're handsome or beautiful if you don't click on the heart," he added, holding back his laughter.

'What a cute girl,' Raihan thought.

For some reason, tonight feels so cold. Maybe also because it has entered the rainy season in Indonesia.

Raihan saw it, then took off his jacket and gave it to Naura, who looked cold.

"This! Put on a jacket. You're cold, you know," he suggested as he handed the jacket into Naura's hand.

"No need, Mas. I'm okay. Later, You will be cold, you know, "rejected the girl who intended to return Raihan's jacket.

Raihan accepted it back while shaking his head slowly. Then unexpectedly, Naura, the man, put his jacket on the girl's shoulder.

"Don't make me look like an insensitive man like that," he said with a serious face.

Naruto couldn't help but laugh a little, then nodded. Can't refuse anymore if Raihan has changed his face thoughtfully.

"Let us go home! You really don't want to buy snacks anymore?" bid Raihan once again.

But still, Naura refused. "I don't want to, Mas. I'm really full. You want to make me fat, okay?" she accused with a suspicious face.

"Good grief! Not like that. But if you're fat, you're still cute," said Raihan, chuckling.

"What? Don't talk about it, Mas. It'll just be ghosting again," replied Naura, not wanting to lose.

Raihan laughed, then opened the car door for Naura. "If you're baper, yes, you just have to be responsible, right?" he replied calmly.

"Huuu, you bastard!" Naura pouted while laughing.

Raihan takes Naura back to her house. Then after that, he also returned to his house.

Tonight, Raihan is very happy. He can, little by little, get to know Naura's personality. The girl with the sweet smile.

It feels like this is called falling in love. Raihan is still not sure about it. It's just that he always wanted to see that sweet smile.

His cell phone rang a phone call from Rico, apparently. "Hello Ric, what's wrong? I want to go to the bathroom first. You'll call back later, okay?" he said, who immediately cut off the phone call from Rico without wanting to hear what his brother had to say first.

Not long after, Raihan contacted Rico again. Brands chat about a lot of things. Because, all this time, Raihan was the only place where his brother complained.

About all his problems, except for the romance. Rico closed it tightly about who the girl in his past still controlled his heart and mind for a long time.

"So, how close is your relationship with that girl? Where did you say that I wanted to know? You are afraid that she will have a crush on me, right? Yes, the risk of a handsome person is like this," Rico boasted with an annoyed face.

Makes Raihan laugh. "You know what she said when I said that my brother was very handsome?" said Raihan. "She doesn't look at a man from his handsome face but from his heart."

Rico laughed hearing that. It was the first time he knew there was a girl who still cared about a boy's good looks.

"Okay. How about we prove it? When I get home, we'll see if she's fascinated by me or not. How?" challenged Rico confidently that the girl would also be the same as a girl in general who cares about a boy's good looks.

"Deal! I agree with your suggestion. Because I'm sure if a mate will not go anywhere," said Raihan confidently. That God has arranged the mate of every human being well.

"Okay. But later, what if the girl fell in love with me? Are you going to take it off for me?" asked Rico, who only intended to tease his brother.

Because his heart has been attached for a long time to a girl he knew at his school before moving to Jakarta and living with his uncle, his father's older brother. Then he continued his studies at New York University.

"If she really likes you, I will be willing to let her go. As long as you're both happy," Raihan said seriously, smiling faintly.

Rico nodded his head. "Brother, calm down. I won't fall in love with that girl. Because I've had someone for a long time. I will look for her when I get home and confess my feelings. Hopefully, she will accept me," said Rico with a dreamy look.

Remembering his past when he was still in high school. The sweet girl who managed to turn him into what he is today.

Managed to be the main reason for Rico to change for the better. Changing himself, who previously had no purpose in life, now has aspirations and enthusiasm to move forward.

"Oh, your high school girlfriend is different? What's her name? It's just a name. I don't want to tell Brother." sneered Raihan, annoyed and curious about the figure of a girl who could change Rico into what he is today.

"Yes. She's not a pretty girl, really, but sweet. Her smile is gorgeous. Especially when she's shy, it's hilarious," said Rico with a thin smile.

Recalling the sweet memories of being with the girl. Even though it's been a long time, Rico can never forget the moment.

That girl is also the one who makes Rico as eager to learn as he is now. Because that girl is someone who doesn't want Rico to waste his youth by ignoring the importance of education for the future.

"Yes, I hope she will forgive you for suddenly leaving without any news," joked Raihan, who knew why Rico couldn't say goodbye even for a moment to his girl at that time.

"Hm … hopefully," repeated Rico, hoping to get an apology from him.

After that, the two brothers ended the call and returned to their respective activities.
