Chapter 8. Remember the Memories

Today, Sabila deliberately locked his room. He really didn't want to go outside until his mother brought Salsa back home. In addition, the mother did not want to bother. He wanted to take a short walk to get his focus back on work. Somehow if this is the place to sit and relax is the lake, until he remembers something, something about his past mass about the lake.
Flashback on.
"You know what, Nia? I've always loved looking at lakes. I know you're traumatized by lakes, but really, I didn't mean to remind you at all about that incident. I always like watching it because I believe there is peace behind it."
Kania couldn't help but smile bitterly, remembering what happened in the past.
"Why are you even smiling to yourself? Already starting to like the lake, huh?" Farhan asked, turning his head to look at Kania.
Kania turned to Farhan. Not! More precisely to see a large tree that provides shade and coolness around. Then Kania looked at the lake like Farhan did. He was right, the lake was very peaceful, but who would have thought it was also so fierce that it could snatch Kania's twin. Until first return to the lap of the divine.
"I never hated the lake, I just wanted to keep my distance from it. Because when I saw it, I was reminded of bitter memories that are not forgotten," Kania replied, throwing a stone into the lake.
Farhan turned his head, looking at the girl beside him who threw a stone into the lake. Maybe she knew that Kania was remembering the incident, maybe Kania forgot that Farhan was someone who knew her well.
Farhan moved from his seat to a large tree which was not too far from where they were sitting. Don't worry, there's a lot of people here, of course because it's a Sunday.
"Nia! Come here for a moment," said Farhan with a sweet smile. I don't know, maybe it's the first time Kania has seen the smile of a very sweet Farhan. Kania nodded, then walked over to where Farhan was.
"Bruck!"
"Sorry, sir, I didn't mean to. Here, let me help," said Kania, holding out her hand to a man. So why did Kania call him Sir? Maybe because the man wore neat clothes, didn't forget his shirt and tie.
Careless, Kania was really careless this time. Why was Kania suddenly so excited to approach Farhan that she accidentally bumped into a man wearing a shirt with a black tie? The man did not even want to accept a helping hand from Kania. Maybe too angry because of Kania's actions, he wasted a lot of time.
"Are you blind to see me? Or am I too small to see?"
From his tone it seemed very soft, but every word he said to me was a smack that hit the target.
"Listen, sir, I saw that you hit Nia! Not Nia. Are you not aware?" Farhan said in a high tone. If it can be replayed, it is the man's fault.
"Farhan!" Kania said. Even though he knew Farhan had good intentions.
The man just looked at Kania cynically while continuing to pay attention to every inch of Kania's face.
"Previously I apologize. Sorry that I accidentally bumped into you and made you waste a lot of time," said Kania, looking down.
"Nia? What are you doing? He is in the wrong, not you," said Farhan, looking at the face of the man who was the source of problems on this supposedly beautiful Sunday.
"Farhan! I told you before, didn't I? The person who first apologized was a very noble person," Kania said while looking at Farhan gently. Kania wanted this time she was not as emotional as when she defended Kania a few days ago.
"Already! Why are you guys making a fuss? It's clear that I should be the one getting angry, not the two of you!" The man finally spoke up. It's weird, isn't it? The man should be angry because he wasted his precious time.
"You two have already wasted about fifteen minutes of my time. I'll definitely be late. Treating people like you is just a waste of my rupiah coffers!" continued the man and then just left Kania and Farhan.
Kania and Farhan looked at each other and then they heard laughter. I don't know what they're laughing at, maybe it's the same thing or vice versa.
"Nia, why are you laughing? Were you also laughing at Mr. earlier?" Farhan asked, trying to stop his laughter.
"No, I laughed at you instead," Kania replied, holding back her laughter.
"Me? What's so funny about me?" Farhan asked again, looking at the face of the girl in front of him.
"I just realized your face looks like an ape," said Kania, covering her mouth not to laugh.
"What? I thought you laughed at that weirdo earlier. You know, Nia? You are the one who says I look like an ape, while many girls call me like Jungkook," said Farhan with a proud smile.
"That guy wasn't weird, Farhan, the weird one was you! I'm sure the girls who called you like, aish, or whatever, they must have seen you from a straw," said Kania and continued laughing.
Farhan looked at Kania in surprise. There was a hint of annoyance behind Farhan's face. Of course Kania called herself weird? That means Kania is more defensive of a man she doesn't know at all, but instead she defends Farhan, who has been her friend for a long time, indirectly scolding her.
"Come on, Farhan, I was just joking. You are my best friend," Kania said with a sweet smile – so sweet that even sugar tastes nothing compared to Kania's sweet smile. So Farhan will melt if he sees it.
"I know you are cute, at least don't smile too much for me," said Farhan while looking at Kania's face sincerely so that only a red face indicated that Kania was embarrassed to hear Farhan's words.
"It's time for the midday prayer. Come on, pray before you pray," said Kania. After that he just walked away leaving Farhan together with the feelings he still carries today. Yes! He loves Kania, loves her so much! I don't know when he fell in love with Kania.
Flashback off.
What is certain, everything is just a feeling that is left behind and becomes a memory. Don't know when they will dock, before or indeed they will never be together other than the feeling of being a friend. And, after all that has passed, Kania still thinks and remembers the memories of those days. He should have been brave first. Now, her life is still in love with the man who gave her a baby, if she had known that Farhan could make her happier, instead of having to love more. Maybe, maybe it won't be like this. However, sorry for what?
