Dinda mendelik, "Bisa gak sih jangan ganggu gue, sehari aja?! Oh god."

"Nope."

"Get out of my way."

"This is not your way. Arah rumah lo kesana, princess." Abi tersenyum.

"Terserah gue dong mau kemana! Please, i've told you gue gak mau sama lo."

"Kalo sama Bagas?"

"He's my ex. Gue juga gak mau lah!"

"Kalo Dika anak IPS dua?"

"Engga oh my god i don't even know him!"

"Kalo sama--"

"Abi, shut up! Gue gak mau sama siapapun. Gue gak minat jalin hubungan saat ini, okay."

Abi terkekeh.

Dinda menaikkan sebelah alisnya. "What are you doing?"

"what?"

"You--you laugh?"

"kenapa? I can't?"

"Gue gak bercanda. Gue emang gamau pacaran or something."

"Indeed. I just realize lo baru kali ini manggil nama gua."

"When?--hhh okay that's not important. I mean, is that makes u happy what the heck."

"I am."

"Totally crazy." ujar Dinda sambil berlalu.

"Hey, i'm going to ride you home."

"Gak minat."

"C'mon."

Dinda berhenti. Ia berkacak pinggang, menatap cowok didepannya yang mempunyai tinggi badan diatas rata-rata. Ia hanya sepundaknya.

"Sampe kapan lo kayak gini?"

"Until you're mine."

"I don't want to."

"Din, listen, gua ngejar lo dari setahun yang lalu. So technically lo terus nolak gua udah setahun. Apa gua gak pernah hadir sekalipun in your thought at night, maybe? Apa gua emang se-invisible itu? Dude, come on, i'm not that ugly right?--shh ok i'm not going to be rude. But, still, not makes you ashamed to be my girl anyway. Terlebih kita udah dua tahun kenal, and i think we r not in bad impression. So why u dont want to know me more?"

Dinda terdiam. "I--i just can't. Sorry."

"Kasih satu alesan, din."

"I'm not interested."

"And the reason why u dont interest with me?"

"Abi, please.."

Cowok itu menaikkan sebelah alisnya, tanda ia menunggu penjelasan Dinda.

"Abi, gue cuma cewek biasa. I have only one ex. I'm not kind of the popular ones at school. Imagine, there is a popular with a good-looking boy who trying to get my attention. How could i didn't notice him? You asked, apa lo gak pernah hadir sekalipun in my thought at night? Lo bahkan gak tau how many times i thinking of you until i can't sleep--"

Mata abi melebar, ada harapan didalam dadanya begitu mendengar penuturan Dinda.

"See? Lo bohong waktu bilang gak tertarik sama gua. So why? Can't we?"

"We can't, Abi, please."

"Why? Just tell me the exactly reason. Why even you--"

"I'm noy interested on my bestfriend's crush."

"Hah?"

"You know Kania?"

Abi mengangguk.

"Yes, she likes you. Sorry, bi, gue gak mau nyakitin temen gue sendiri. Gue gabisa sama lo."
