*BROOKE'S POV*
"It's cute, baby." kata gue sambil nunjukin dress yang gue suka dari salah satu rak di toko itu.
"Uh, I prefer this. It looks good on you." kata Kak Cam sambil nunjukin dress yang dia pilih buat gue.
Kita berdebat cukup lama sampe akhirnya kita nemuin outfit yang cocok buat acara tunangannya Jane.
"Fyuh, finally." kata Kak Cam setelah gue bayar dressnya.
"Uuu, cape ya, maaf ya babe." kata gue.
"Iya, gapapa, sweetheart." katanya lalu senyum. Gue liat jam, tinggal 4 jam lagi sebelum gue ketemu Jaden. Bisa lo bayangin, lo pindah negara dan berusaha move on dari crush lo, terus pas lo balik lagi lo udah disodorin undangan tunangannya dia. Duh, untung gue ngga baperan, dan untung banget gue udah nemuin cowo paling baik di dunia, Cameron Alexander Dallas. Oh, praise God.
"I think we should go home now to prepare." kata gue. Kak Cam mengiyakan lalu kita pulang. Sampe rumah, gue mandi, lalu siap-siap, begitu juga Kak Cam. Sekitar jam 6, Kak Cam udah ngetuk-ngetuk pintu kamar gue. Gue buang-buang waktu buat pake eyeliner. Lol. Maklumin lah ya, gue gapernah pake make up kecuali acara penting. And as you know, gue gapernah punya acara penting. Lmao.
"Baby, I can't wait to see you." kata Kak Cam.
"Just give me a minute." kata gue lalu pake heels. Gue buka pintu dikit lalu ngintip. Cogan gue udah berdiri di depan. Dia bener-bener hot pake suit yang kami beli tadi.
"I look bad. Lol." kata gue.
"Aw, c'mon babygirl, just let me see you." kata Kak Cam udah ga sabar.
"Uhh, okay. Don't laugh." kata gue lalu buka pintunya.
"Oh My God, Brooke, I can't, Gosh, you're so beautiful. I'm not lying. Ah, OMG." katanya. Matanya berbinar. Gue jadi malu.
"Uh, thank you so much. Ehm, btw you look so handsome. I like that suit." kata gue.
"Aw, thank's baby." katanya lalu nyium pipi gue.
"Okay, your parents are waiting for us, let's go." katanya lalu kita turun. Mom & Dad udah di mobil jadi kita langsung berangkat.
Rumah Jane penuh bunga mawar yang dirangkai jadi bagus banget. Halaman bekalangnya aka tempat acara inti udah dihias kek acara pernikahan. Tamu-tamu udah dateng dan suasana jadi gerah, walaupun ini musim dingin. Akhirnya gue ngelepas jaket gue.
"Brooklyn?" panggil seseorang. Gue kaget, ternyata Jaden. I met him again. For a long long time.
"Oh, hi Jaden." sapa gue. Gue langsung gandeng Kak Cam yang lagi minum.
"Hey, how are you?" tanyanya.
"I'm fine, thank's. How about you?" yeah, I know you're fine, really fine and happy.
"I'm fine too, thank's." katanya lalu ngeliat Kak Cam.
"Aw, let me introduce, this is Cameron, my boyfriend." kata gue. Cam salaman sama Jaden. I know this is awkward.
"Uh, okay, enjoy the celebration, I'm gonna change my outfit. Bye." kata Jaden.
"Bye." jawab gue.
"Baby." panggil gue.
"Yeah, sweetheart?" tanyanya.
"Are you enjoying our vacation?" tanya gue. Gue ngga terlalu yakin dia seneng di sini. Apalagi ditambah gue yang selalu ngerepotin dia.
"I'm enjoying our vacation. Srsly, it's the best vacation ever." katanya bahagia. But I know it's fake. Not 100%, maybe 50%.
"Aw, okay." kata gue. Beberapa menit kemudian acara inti dimulai. Jane digandeng Jaden ke panggung. Gue gatau gimana ngungkapin perasaan gue.
"Tenang, kita cuma tinggal nunggu tambah umur." bisik Kak Cam tiba-tiba. Gue ngelirik dia lalu senyum.
"Love you, baby."
"Love you more, kitten."

Acara inti udah selesai. Jaden & Jane resmi tunangan. Dan, ya, gue berusaha keliatan bahagia buat mereka, sebenernya gue seneng, tapi gue belum maafin Jane sepenuhnya tentang janjinya ke gue dulu.
"Brooke?" panggil seseorang. Ternyata Jane.
"Aw hey, Jane." sapa gue.
"Uh, can I talk to you for a minute?" tanyanya.
"Oh, uh, okay." kata gue lalu pamit ke Kak Cam. Jane ngajak gue masuk kamarnya.
"Brooke, I wanna tell you." katanya memulai.
"Yeah?"
"Uh, I know you remembered about my promise when we was so young, I told you that I hate Jaden so much and I won't fall in love with him." katanya.
"Uhm, yeah." jawab gue canggung.
"Listen, I'm sorry I betrayed you, I broke my promise, but I can't handle it." katanya.
"I know, sometimes the person you hate the most can be the person you love the most at the end." kata gue.
"But, I'm sorry, Brooke. I didn't mean to mess with your feelings, but that's the reality. I can't even deny it." katanya.
"Hey, I'm moving on, you know, and I've got the right person I've been looking for." kata gue.
"Are you okay?" tanyanya.
"I'm okay, I'm really okay. Don't you worry about me, Jane." kata gue.
"Oh My Gosh, you're the best person I've ever known. I can't believe it, you're 16 and so brave, so mature. I'm so proud of you, Brooke." kata Jane. Gue ketawa.
"I'm trying my best to treat my people well. Because I can't stand right here without them." kata gue. Jane geleng-geleng heran lalu meluk gue.
"My girl is so adorable." katanya.
