Lanie stood behind Danu who was making the payment at the cashier.
'tit '
' tit '
' tit '
' tit '
' tit.tit' again and again.
Lanie gawking.
I don't know how many items total. But all goods paid by credit card are included in five handbags.
There was only one handbag that he knew what it contained.
The bag he chose for Danu later presented to Erina.
The rest he did not know when it was chosen and why Danu bought it.
Lanie who did not dare to ask then followed as Danu stepped out of the clothing store.
'' we are back, yes . Afraid of Erina uda coming and waiting at home, Lanie asked with a worried look .
'' why not on the phone ? Tell me you're the same as me making her birthday present. '' Danu said casually.
After weighing up, Lanie decided to call Erina as Danu suggested.
'' hello, Er said Lanie as soon as her phone line was connected .
'' yes Lan '' welcome Erina.
'' nga, anu... Where are you ? ''
'' oh, yes. Sbt .
I just overslept.This is just going otw to your house ''
'' oh, that.. ''
Be quiet for a few seconds.
Lanie jerks . When he found Danu who was paying attention . And it seems Danu is listening to the conversation between her and Erina.
'' Lan, what's up ? '' erina's voice leaned on her.
'' anu, Er. Actually I was also again outside . sam-sama Danu'' Lanie's tone of voice was low at the end of her sentence.
'' ... ''
'' so-sori ngasi tau.
Danu also suddenly went home.
He also has no plan. Just ask for a gift for your birthday ''
'' o-o-yeah, if that's not papa. Engggg... but you guys are still a long time no ? ''
'' no-no-no this uda ma-mau - Lanie's talk stopped when she saw Danu shake her head. Signify if it looks like they are not going home yet.
'' Lan '' Erina's voice returned.
'' I don't know yet, Er. You see again stuck in a lie Lanie just said.
He saw Danu carving a smile.
And the call ended after Erina said she would stay home and wait until she came home
Lanie pensive. He felt uncomfortable because this was the first time he lied . He saw again Danu who increasingly flashed a smile.
'' because you already said that, now we find food first.
I was hungry Danu turned around and took a step.
But only three steps, he stopped because he realized that there were no signs of being followed.
She saw that Lanie was still in her place.
The girl fluttered with a flat look.
'' Lan ''
'' I go home first, yeah.
You continue on. After all our business is also finished uda ''
Lanie took a quick step .
But lost quickly with Danu who had managed to catch up with him.
The man blocked his arm, forcing his steps to halt.
'' I want to go home now, Nu.
It's not good for Erina if you wait too long ''
Lanie was about to pull her hand, but Danu tightened her grip.
Lanie could not move either.
'' yes, uda if so. I'm not eating. I take you home now said Danu suddenly cold.
Grip's off. At the grab of Lanie's fingers and she held it for then she pulled it forcibly following her way forward.
Lanie couldn't resist.
He let the palm wrap his five fingers.
* * *
The sky was already dark.
For the sun has returned to its hiding place.
In a moment, the stars and moon will appear to adorn the night sky.
Dari and Erina stand up when the car they recognize stops in front of the house.
Then Lanie and Danu emerge from the car at the same time.
'' sorry, old brother Danu said hello to Tari .
Tari shook her head while saying ''ga papa'' in a friendly tone.
'' sori, Er Lanie with an unkind look greeted Erina who had a flat expression because Danu did not greet her first.
'' hey, Er '' Danu greeted him .
Erina flinched and immediately smiled.
'' I went home, yes. Uda night said Danu who only stared at Erina at a glance then immediately turned to Lanie .
Erina's smile faded away instantly.
Though he had hoped Danu would take him out as well. Or at least stay for a while.
To just ask each other the news because they rarely meet and only communicate through messages.
Or maybe another light talk.
But it looks like Danu has no such intention at all.
Erina noticed this interaction of friends and the man she liked in front of her.
Danu and Lanie look familiar.
Danu said goodbye after talking to Lanie at length. The thing that sounds absolutely unimportant to say.
'' makasi, yes uda nemenin me today . Next time I need your help, can I take you out again ?
Em.. trus I can also dong once play at your house ? ''
Erina was dumbfounded.Did she not hear wrong ?
Danu spoke so clearly.
As if there were only two of them. He and Dance seemed to be considered non-existent.
Erina doesn't like it.
He said Danu liked it. But why pay more attention to Lanie ?
Noticed Lanie's attitude that does not respond so well to Danu's words.
Erina started thinking a lot.
'' is he teasing Danu ?
Pull - expensive selling thread, is that it ?
Erina is concerned to see the behavior of Danu and Lanie who are opposite each other.
" o, yes Er.
Nih for you "Danu thrust a handbag at Erina.
Instantly Erina again widened both corners of her lips. He smiled as he welcomed a helping hand and took a package of groceries with the logo of a clothing store that he often visited.
" wouldn't you say I'm watching the card now ?
Your birthday is next month, coinciding with an out-of-town family event "
" yes, papa.
Make a lot of lo, Nu "
Again Danu only returned her glance and immediately turned her to Lanie.
" nih, Lan "Danu highlighted four handbags on Lanie's chest.
Erina's smile faded again. His eyes widened in disbelief with everything he heard and saw.
What - what ?
My birthday was just one handbag.
While Lanie got four ? Four ?
Erina is getting riled up.
" tap-but "Lanie tries to resist by unwillingly raising her hand.
Danu smile.
He then stepped forward a few steps toward Kaka Lanie.
He handed over the item he had bought to Lanie to Dance.
" i tipped ya, sis" said Danu who after that berbit on everything.
Dance took it away with a daze.
I don't know what's wrong with them ?
After a while Danu left, quietly filling the susana between them.
The dance that realized if there was something between the sister, friend, and man earlier, then went in first .
" sorry, Er "Lanie is ripping apart.
Erina flinching.
He doesn't know how to.
It doesn't make sense if he gets angry and accuses Lanie of cheating behind him.
Besides because he and Danu have not been dating, anyone who would believe if Danu who had said like and wanted to approach him would suddenly turn to women like Lanie.
Cannot be.
" i-I'm coming home, Lan.
Our promise today is off.
Uda night too " Erina said without even wanting to see Lanie.
He took a step towards the car parked in front of the house.
Not long after, Erina passed.
" arrrggghhh "Lanie vented her indignation that was either for what or for whom.
To be sure, what had just happened was truly unthinkable.
Lanie turned around and went inside the house.
" sister ? " lanie's forehead shriveled when she found Dance unpacking the contents of the handbag and saw it one by one .
Dance sighed. He lifted a pair of kets, and showed the price listed in his logo.
Lanie shrugged her shoulders parallel to the tail of the eyes sweeping away all the scattering items on the living room table.
Some of them he remembered, if the items were the ones he saw, he held , he asked the price and he had tried also in the store earlier.
He doesn't know what Danu meant by buying all that and giving it to him.
Dance put the things she holds.
Then switch to other stuff.
It folds, it neatly arranges, and it puts it back into the handbag as before.
" when did he get rich with you ? "
" never-never. In-this is the first time "answered in a low tone.
" hold on ? Didn't you tell him that again PDKT same Erina ? How can you be loyal to you ? Not worth it ? "
Lanie then explained briefly.
Starting from the beginning Danu asked for no phone. Then Danu who always reasoned to be embarrassed if he had to communicate directly with Erina. Until he would not want to involve himself and act as an intermediary between Erina and Danu.
Dance blew her breath violently.
Just like Lanie . He also does not understand the problem of love. Because all this time they only focus on education in order to organize the future well.
But he's quite sensitive. Not as stupid as his sister who can't read what's going on.
" Danu doesn't like Erina.
He likes you "
' deg' Tari's remarks made Lanje reflex shakes firmly.
" it's impossible "Lanie tried to deny. He himself thought so too .
" okay. It may be hard to believe.
But, now you hear well what this big brother is saying ! "
Lanie nodded.
His sister always understood and never got angry let alone judged for things that were not clear where the problem was.
" keep these things well. Don't even think about taking it out let alone dipake it ?! understand ?! "
Lanie nodded again. No need to remind him he did not intend to touch let alone wear expensive items.
" continue, stop connecting with Danu "
This time Lanie nodded faintly.
One side he thought if it was time he stopped being the third person between Erina and Danu .
But on the other side. I don't know why there's a throbbing pain at the thought that he won't be related to Danu anymore. Like something was being forced out of it.
Seeing the doubt on her sister's face, Dari was concerned.
" you like Danu ?"
This time Dance's question couldn't be answered at all.
Dance took a deep breath.
" listen, deck.
We people don't have.
What we need now is education.
It's just for our future.
This gini rich thing we should be able to set aside first.
No or no time for this. But later. Not now.
Before it's too late, you better wake yourself up.
First, and finish your college. Pursue and achieve your ideals.
Only then can you start for something else. Um ? "
Dance spoke softly but sounded so wise because it contains firmness in every sentence he said just now.
Lanie nodded.
He looked at his brother . Through the glare of his eyes, he convinced Tari that he would not disappoint.
