Destiny ?!
The beginning of that taste
POV Author
It does not feel like the class holidays have entered the 3rd day and this is where Astri, almost during the holidays he just fell on his beloved mattress.
Her mother is busy working, Elli to Bali, Bagas is also on vacation with her friends, while Hari does not know what else, Astri is embarrassed if you have to contact Hari first.
After his head was dizzy enough that he just collapsed all day, he finally decided to go to the bookstore while looking for a new novel.
Astri rides his subscription angkot to go to the bookstore, the streets are quite quiet because maybe most people are on vacation to the top or outside of other cities.
It didn't take long for Astri to get to the bookstore. Inside the bookstore Astri went straight to the shelves of neatly lined novels.
While Astri was focusing on picking out some novels, from the back was someone patting him on the shoulder.
"hi, you're Astri, right?" hello Sherly
"ohh yeah, you're Sherly?" astri said.
"do you like coming here?, we've met here twice" Sherly said.
"hhmm quite, if you want to" Astri replied.
"old or done?" ask Sherly.
"i'm done, just stay at the cashier. Why why?" astri said.
"coffee yuk front there" Sherly bargained.
"may" Astri replied.
Finally they both sat together to just coffee at the cafe where they had met as well.
"have you known Hari for a long time?" ask Sherly.
"yet, just a matter of weeks" Astri replied.
"that's it" said Sherly.
"hu'umb" said Astri.
"That day despite looking friendly, she was very difficult to open her heart, let alone the same chick" Sherly said slightly wanting to see Astri's reaction.
"really?!" astri said.
"yes, I knew Hari from childhood, our parents were friends so we met often and as you know I and she ended up getting engaged. But just yesterday I saw love in her eyes when she saw you" Sherly said.
Astri was only silent because he was confused as to what to say and how to react.
"I myself have not been in love with him nor with him, although we have been engaged for a long time, nor do we know when we will marry because it is a decisive family. For us as long as we are still given freedom before the wedding happens we have to make the most of it. We can't escape or surrender" Sherly said.
"i also do not know if you are together it will last how long, because no matter how strong you fight for it finally remain those who determine. It's not a Korean drama that our parents will be devastated when they see their child's struggle, they don't care about our feelings that they care about how much we will benefit them". Sherly.
"So, before you start and before your feelings get deeper it is better to think again. Whether you will continue or you will stop here, because you and Hari will never end" Sherly said
Astri digested all of Sherly's explanations, she just kept quiet without being able to respond, she didn't know the path she was going to take.
When Astri was busy with his thoughts the phone vibrated.
Drrt drrt drrt
Astri saw the name on his cell phone. my future of course the name was the day that wrote it because from the beginning Astri received the phone he never changed anything that has been set by Hari.
"lift up, it's Day isn't it?" tell Sherly
Astri was still wondering how he could tell if it was Day while no one knew what the name of Day was on his phone list. When Astri's about to pick up the phone, Sherly blocks her hand.
"get up but don't tell me you're with me" Sherly said.
Astri picked up the phone from Hari.
"day baby, what are you doing?" tanya Hari across the phone.
"afternoon, I'm having coffee" Astri replied.
"where's the coffee?" tanya Day's.
"in the cafe in front of the usual bookstore" Astri explained.
"who are you?" tanya Day's.
"i'm with Sherly" Astri replied.
Astri gets a sharp glare from Sherly because she doesn't heed Sherly's word.
"wait, I'm there now, you don't go anywhere until I come" Hari said.
Astri had not yet answered that Hari had closed her call.
"i'm fine because you told Hari that you were with me, we'll see how fast she gets here" Sherly said.
"for what?" ask Astri.
"I want to see how much he loves you?" said Sherly.
"what does that have to do with how fast he comes with how much he loves me?" ask Astri.
"hahahaha, you're funny" Sherly said.
"meaning?" ask Astri.
"Day is a person who does not care about the people around him even though he is friendly to everyone but he will choose who he will help and who he will ignore, she knows me so well, so when she finds out you're with me, she should be worried that she really loves you" Sherly said.
"i don't understand" Astri said.
"i'm not as good as what you see, baby" Sherly said.
It only takes 10 minutes for Day to arrive at the cafe, the normal travel time is 35 minutes to 40 minutes from home Day to the cafe, can be completed by Day in just 10 minutes.
Either because of the quiet streets or because Hari was riding his motorbike at a very high speed.
The day he entered the cafe in a hurry, he circulated his gaze to look for Astri's whereabouts. When he found her, Hari immediately approached Astri.
"are you okay?" tanya Day's.
"i'm fine" Astri replied.
"hhmm I'd better go, have fun" Sherly said.
Before Sherly had time to leave her hand had been banned by Hari.
"don't touch it or you'll regret it" Hari's statement said.
Sherly leaves the two of them without answering Hari's statement.
"are you really okay?" tanya Day's.
"yes, you see for yourself that I'm fine" Astri replied.
"thank God" said Hari, stroking Astri's head.
"Don't worry" Astri said as he looked into Hari's eyes to reassure her.
"yes baby" said Hari.
"i'm not a baby" Astri said.
"what do you want him to call?" goda Hari as she sat next to Astri.
"whatever" Astri answered while shaking.
"you're that adorable rich baby babe" Hari said as she pinched Astri's two cheeks.
"iisshhh, not funny" Astri said.
"the road yuk" haggard Day.
"where?" ask Astri.
"anywhere with you" replied Hari.
Blushes...
astri's face was already like a boiled crab.
Hari gives a helmet to be worn by Astri, and eventually they leave the cafe using the big motor Hari.
"tumben's on a big motor?" ask Astri to start a conversation.
"if it's out of school I'd rather use a big motorbike" Hari replied.
"that's it" Astri replied.
"sherly said anything to you?" tanya Day who has been curious since.
"nothing, just chatting small things" Astri replied.
"hmm well, next time tell me whatever Sherly said or what Sherly did to you" Hari said.
"yes" answered Astri.
Without Astri noticing that both of her hands had perched smoothly at Hari's waist, whether the demon possessed her, Astri instead tightened her embrace at Hari's waist.
The day that Astri felt a hug could tell that there was something Astri was covering up, in his heart he muttered that he would not let go of Sherly if he dared to tease or even touch Astri.
Because it feels comfortable and peaceful when hugging Hari finally Astri fell asleep on Hari's back. The day that did not want to disturb sleep Astri chose to keep advancing his motorbike until long enough and he reached a beach.
Day turned off her motor engine while Astri hugged her waist tightly while falling asleep.
Long enough Day was silent looking at the sea with Astri asleep on his back. After two hours Astri fell asleep, she woke up.
"hmm where are we?" astri asked who was collecting some of his life that was still in the dreamland.
"on the beach" Hari replied.
"how long have I been sleeping" Astri asked, reluctantly taking off his embrace.
"hhmm two hours since we arrived" replied Hari.
"what?! really long?!" startled Astri.
"why don't you wake me up, ma'af ya ya waitin lama y?" astri said.
"it's okay baby even though I have to wait for you to arrive in the next life I will remain faithful waiting for you" Hari explained.
Plakk
Aawws
"combal" said Astri timidly.
"i've never fought with you, everything I said was really sincere my dear" said Hari.
"dear dear bald, nohh Sherly wants to be accompanied" Astri said.
Astri got off the bike Hari, he took off his shoes and started walking on the sand that was still clean and white.
Day caught up with Astri and walked by his side. Then he held Astri's hand while kneeling before him.
"i don't know how strong I can fight you, but as long as I'm still breathing I'll keep you protected at all times and in any way. I'm not trying to seduce you or say sweet things to get your attention. Everything I say is sincere from my heart, it may sound cliche to others with our status who are still in High School but trust me I will prove it to you. Astri I know our path will be difficult, our path will be full of drama later even though this is not a Korean drama but I beg you will be my lover, be the only love in my heart, will you be the only person I will fight for, be the sole owner of my heart and soul and will you be half my breath?!" say Day.
Astri was silent at Hari's statement, his heart pounding very strongly and his heart warmed up, as if dispelling all the worries Sherly had caused earlier.
"I'm willing" Astri replied.
"thank you" said Hari.
They hugged tightly as if channeling all the flavors that were inside their chest.
Astri POV
Our love is simple, we just want to be happy together and take care of each other, but maybe our love path is not as simple as our love.
PoV day
This struggle may be hard but believe me I will keep our love until we are united later, whether in the present or the next life.
