My soul is an Artist
Chapter 23 Intentionally dodging?

Vega and Danis have arrived in Jogja subu. Danis was resting and asleep on the living room couch of Vega's house.

Vega went into the room followed by her mother. At that time Vega told her mother to tell Mamah Riri, that she refused to continue the match.

"Are you sure of your decision, son?" ask Anna's mother.

"I'm sure ma'am, I've been thinking about it all night" Vega replied.

"Mom don't know what the problem is between you, I do wish you could get married and be happy together. But if all you get are tears of sadness, I will not force you to continue this matchmaking" said Anna's mother as she rubbed Vega's sad-looking back.

"I'm sorry Vega ma'am, this time Vega can't fulfill Mom and Dad's request" Vega said, hugging her mother.

Vega decided to call off the match. He doesn't want Bian's career to be completely ruined by his presence in Bian's life. He has also decided to get out of Ryan's house, and move to a boarding house.

Daytime.

It just so happened that Anna's mother was shopping at the market. Vega's father had already left for college to teach. They let Danis rest, because they must be tired of driving all night from Jakarta to Jogja.

Vega alarm sounds. The clock is at 9. Vega immediately went to the living room to wake Danis up. Danis did ask to be awakened at 9. He should be back in Jakarta today.

"Sister Danis, wake up already at 9" said Vega softly as she wiggled Danis' arm.

Danis wriggled funnyly, then opened her eyes. Danis sat down to give her life back 100%.

"Look we have breakfast first brother, I've cooked fried rice before to the market" Vega asked.

"Hmmm, I want to go to the toilet first" Danis said.

"All right, there's the toilet. I have also prepared a towel and toothbrush for you sister" Vega said, pointing to the bathroom.

Danis nodded and went to the toilet. After cleaning himself up, he immediately headed for the dining room. Vega was waiting for him complete with hot tea on the table.

"So my brother was eaten" Vega said.

Danis started feeding food into her mouth.

"Enak once Ve" said Danis.

"Other times you have to try gudeg made by Mom deh, much more delicious taste" said Vega.

"Is it true?, next time I will play here again, the old one" said Bian excitedly. He regretted that he had to return to Jakarta immediately, to prepare a seminar for his proposal.

"Yes, next time you can do it here" Vega.

Then they continued eating. Lastly Danis drank Vega's tea for him.

"Ve, do you remember my message?" asked Danis when they had finished eating.

"Where's my brother?" ask Vega confusedly.

"Come to me if Bian makes you cry" Danis replied.

Vega just nodded, not knowing what to answer.

"I can't make you happy all the time, but I promise I'll never make you cry Ve" Danis continued.

"You know what I mean?" ask Danis.

Vega nodded back. He did not want to reject the goodness of Danis openly. Danis has done too much good for him.

Vega drove Danis to her car.

"Thank you for driving me, brother"

"Sorry to have troubled you, heart in the street yes ka, if you sleep first and sleep yes" said Vega. Actually he felt very guilty for Danis. Danis must be tired of having to drive alone back and forth Jakarta Jogja.

"Yes I will be careful" Danis said as she got into the car. Danis lowered her car's glass. Vega waved her right hand.

"Bye brother" said Vega.

With the door button opened by someone.

Ryan went into Bian's apartment. He looked around the room. Very fucked. Bian looks to be sitting on the sofa. There were a lot of empty bottles of drink.

Ryan picked up the bottle and set it on the table. Ryan felt sorry for his brother. It's been almost two days Bian's been like this. He even missed his filming schedule.

"When are you like this, brother?" ask Ryan.

"You want to go from jerk to motherfucker?" ask Ryan again.

Bian just leaned his head slightly towards Ryan.

"Stop being a pathetic bastard, quickly meet him and apologize" Ryan said.

Bian thought for a moment. Then he got up and looked for his car keys.

"You want to see Vega with that look?" ask Ryan.

Bian stopped and checked himself from top to bottom. Back from the bottom up.

Very messed up, Inner Bian.

Bian chose to go into the bathroom first. He took a short bath to get rid of his hangover last night. Bian also thought about what he should say if he had met Vega.

In the past Bian was worried if his match with Vega would affect his career. But this time he realized that his career was no more important than Vega. Bian just wanted Vega, nothing else.

Bian had already finished his bath and prepared. Ryan was still faithfully waiting on the sofa. Bian's room was now back clean and tidy.

Ryan gave a plane ticket to Bian.

"When did you buy it?" ask Bian.

"Mama told me to give it to you" Ryan said.

"Oh" Bian answered briefly.

Bian took what he needed, then left the apartment. Ryan was behind. In the lobby there was Simon waiting for them.

"I told Simon to take us to the airport" Ryan said.

"We?" bian asked with a smirk.

"Yes we, mamah told me to accompany you" said Ryan.

Mamah Riri did not want Bian to travel alone in a state of chaos.

After traveling for about an hour, Bian and Ryan arrived in Jogja. Then they headed to Vega's house, using a car that Riri had prepared.

They arrived at a beautiful mansion in the city of Jogja. The house looks antique and old, with a typical joglo Javanese house model. Yet clean and well-groomed.

Anna's mother opened the door, and told the two of them to come in.

"Vega where's aunt?" bian asked impatiently.

"Vega again out son Bian, this morning he said he wanted to meet his high school friends" replied Anna's mother.

"You rest first, and then Vega will also go home" continued Anna's mother.

"Alright aunt" replied Bian.

Anna's mother had already been informed of Bian's arrival by Mamah Riri this morning. So he had already prepared a room to rest Bian. Anna's mother accidentally did not tell Vega. Let brands meet naturally and solve their own problems.

It's almost afternoon. Ryan said goodbye to Jakarta first. Just like Danis, Ryan also has a seminar schedule for his proposal script. While Bian chose to stay, because he had not met Vega.

Bian decided to go out looking for Vega. Anna's mother tells Bian that Vega went to her friend Vina's house. Vina's house is near Indrayanti Beach. Famous beaches in the area. Vega and her friend used to spend time together while waiting for the sunset.

"Where are you Ve, are you deliberately avoiding me? I'm sorry, pliss I'm sorry, I love you Ve" muttered Bian while looking for Vega.

...Seriate...
