52. Your choice

Tiffany and Lauren, two girls who are running a sentence clean up the indoor basketball court after school. They secretly exchanged words with each other and sometimes Lauren cursed to herself, which annoyed Tiffany.

The girl was so tired of cleaning and Lauren even provoked her, but a few moments later it dawned on her. She looked down deeply, trying to understand Lauren's feelings.

"Sorry..."

"Hmph! You think I'll accept your apology?" Lauren asked, looking cynical.

"Yes, I know you won't forgive me, I just want to apologize. A few days ago I found Satria sitting on a bridge, I thought he wanted to kill himself."

"What?"

"He likes Oliv and because Oliv loves another man, I think Satria is really desperate... I don't know what else to do, after all Satria is our best friend. I couldn't possibly leave him in despair, that's why I offered to treat the wound."

Lauren didn't answer and walked out of the indoor basketball court just like that, leaving Tiffany staring at her blankly. Meanwhile outside, Lauren was surprised to see Satria who was about to enter the field.

"Is Tiffany still in?"

she snorted. "See for yourself."

"Hey."

"What?"

"Whatever Tiffany's fault, you shouldn't be like this to her."

"This has nothing to do with you."

"But I'm involved."

Lauren flinched. "You.. what do you know?"

"Nothing, I just don't want Tiffany to get in trouble because of you."

Lauren looked down, Satria had never glanced at her even once. It seems like Satria already knows the truth, but the man doesn't care about her feelings at all.

"Oh, I see..."

"What?" asked Satria confused.

Receiving no answer, Satria chose to enter the indoor basketball court. The man looked at Tiffany who was carrying a basketball basket out of the field, Satria quickly approached Tiffany and helped the girl.

"Eh?"

"Heavy, right?"

Tiffany looks at Satria who smiles while lifting the other side of the basket which contains lots of basketballs, Tiffany smiles, the girl nods while looking at Satria who is walking beside her.

"You met Lauren?"

Satria nodded. "Don't think about her."

"You are so cruel."

"Oh yeah? I really wouldn't pay attention to a bully who doesn't even want to see other people happy."

"Are you Happy?"

"Not yet, but later for sure. After all, you enjoy our time together, right?"

"Reasonable."

"I will also try to forget Oliv as soon as possible so you don't get into trouble."

Tiffany's eyes widened when Satria suddenly pinched her cheeks, Tiffany hit Satria's arm because she didn't accept it. While Satria immediately carried the basketball basket by himself quickly, leaving Tiffany who swore.

"Thank you for accompanying me."

"Yes, come into your house."

"Yes, yes.. there you go!"

"Eh? You kicked me out?"

"Yeah so what?!"

Satria chuckled. "How fierce."

"Fanny, who are you talking to?!"

"My friend, Mom!"

"Eh? Why weren't you asked to stop by, Fan? You are here!"

"Afternoon, Aunt." say hello Satria.

"Come on in first, son."

"No need, aunt, it seems my mother is waiting for me at home."

"Really? Are you sure you don't want to stop by first?"

"Another time, Auntie."

"Well then, be careful okay."

"Yes, thank you. Excuse me, auntie."

"Yes!"

Satria ran his motorbike and drove fast, Tiffany entered her house first. While her mother also entered the house smiling seductively Tiffany.

"Why is the look on your face like that?" asked Tiffany lazy.

"Who was that? Your boyfriend huh?"

"Mom! I'm not dating, he just drove me."

"What guy would drop a girl off if not his girlfriend."

Tiffany snorted. "Why do you think like that? He really is my only friend!"

"Haha.. so funny, mother's daughter..."

"Mom!"

"Good morning, dear."

"Eh?"

"Not replying?"

"Morning."

"Not the intention at all."

"I'm tired after serving my sentence."

"That's because you are often late, let's go to the canteen."

"Eh, but it's not break time yet."

Hansel smiled as he pulled Dhian's hand to follow him to the canteen, Arka who saw him stared at him as if he didn't like it. Hansel is really going around with Dhian and Arka feels this is getting more and more unnatural.

Now Hansel and Dhian eat together in the canteen, they continue to show their affection. Where Hansel, who always fed Dhian with food, even teased Dhian and made Dhian start shouting in annoyance.

"Hey, you guys."

"Oh?"

"Can we join?"

Dhian and Hansel stared at each other when they saw Satria and Tiffany approaching them, Hansel let the two couples sit in front of them. Hansel didn't even notice Dhian's different gaze in Dhian's presence.

"Why do we have to sit with this geek?"

"Hah?"

Hansel looked at Dhian and Tiffany alternately, the man then realized that Tiffany didn't like Dhian, while Dhian felt depressed when Tiffany joined them.

"Oh, I forgot, you always bully Dhian huh?"

Tiffany scowled. "That's because she sucks! Already ugly, poor again."

"Ehm.. aren't your words too bad for you to show my girlfriend?"

"Girlfriend? So the rumors are true huh?"

"Yes, and I can't stand by and watch you insult her."

"Don't you often insult your girlfriend yourself?" asked Satria staring lazily.

"It's different if I say it. Whatever I want to say my girlfriend is ugly or whatever, but I don't like it when other people say it."

Dhian gasped at Hansel's defense, the girl stared at Hansel in disbelief. While Hansel smiled while winking one eye at Dhian, making Dhian feel touched.

"Wow .. so yes, very romantic," said Tiffany indifferently.

"Tiffany," Hansel called. "Can we talk for a minute?"

Tiffany snorted then she looked at Satria who nodded in return from the man, Tiffany then got up and walked out first. While Hansel went to follow Tiffany after the man kissed Dhian briefly on the forehead.

"How dare he do something like that at school."

Dhian was silent for a long time because she was surprised by what Hansel had just done. Without them realizing it, there were Calvin, Arka and Olivia watching them, seeing what Hansel was doing.

Calvin clenched his fists, his face burning with anger. He didn't like seeing that, he didn't like seeing Hansel. Calvin hated Hansel, all about that man Calvin hated, his chest throbbed with pain.

Calvin chose to leave the canteen before ordering food, even though his intention was to eat to fill up his energy. But now Calvin has lost his appetite, while Arka and Olivia continue to approach Dhian and Satria.

"What was that?" Olivia asked for an explanation.

"That's none of your business, Oliv," Satria said indifferently.

"I didn't ask you!"

After shouting like that, Olivia immediately ran away from the canteen by grabbing Arka's hand. Meanwhile, Satria stares blankly at Olivia's hand holding Arka's hand.

"That is your choice."
