CHAPTER 37
"Emang Bella's house where's aunt?" ask Amanda for a little bit of curiosity.
"Next to" This time Farrel's father spoke.
"Oh, that gray chat huh om?"
"Well, where do you live?"
"I live a little far from here. Around the Permata Indah housing complex" Amanda replied enthusiastically. Somehow the girl was no longer cold in front of the Farrel family, not as usual. As familiar and happy with the Farrel family.
Farrel who saw that just smiled. Yeah, he was just watching Amanda. The girl seemed to have turned into a more cheerful person. As if there were no burdens in his life.
"Oh yeah, by the way, you're Farrel's classmate?" ask Farrell's father.
"The class sister is exactly om," Amanda replied straightforwardly. Then went back to continue eating that had been delayed because of Farrel's parents' stories about Bella.
"Farrel is often a story about you" said Farrel's mother who immediately made Farrel round his eyes surprised. Not with Amanda. The girl looked curious.
"What story is aunt?" ask Amanda to look enthusiastic.
"Say you're a bitch" said Farrel's mother. Farrel just threw his face away, embarrassed to look at Amanda.
"He also said you were fierce" Farrel's father said. Making Farrel's face flushed with embarrassment.
"Father mom fuckin' shit. Intentionally wanting to make Farrel ashamed" Farrel snorted in annoyance. As much as possible he turned his gaze so that Amanda did not see his reddened face.
While both parents Farrel even smiled while shaking his head to see the behavior of his son.
"There was a Farrel. His son is so cute this is what I say cuek." Amanda just chuckled at Farel's father.
They then continued eating with interspersed with other stories. That night, it was like a cure for Amanda. The cure of all the loneliness and emptiness of the family. Yep. Amanda hasn't felt the warmth of a family for a long time. Today, Amanda managed to feel it again through the Farrel family. Even with just a simple dinner, tapai enough to make Amanda happy.
"Lo is lucky, you have a family that loves you very much" said Amanda on their way to the night market. Yep. They did choose to walk because the location of the night market is not far from the house Farrel.
"Yes, I love them too" replied Farrel staring at the streets they passed.
"Even though my family is not rich, but I am happy" Farrel continued. Amanda stopped her steps, making Farrel turn her head and come to a stop too.
"That's not always Rel's happy." Amanda smiled cynically.
"Yes, I know. And the poor don't always suffer" Farrel smiled at Amanda. So did Amanda who smiled at Farrel's words.
"Same papa I never cared about me. They are always busy working together. Rarely come home, no time for me." Amanda told me unknowingly. The girl again stepped her feet ahead of Farrel who was still silent in his place.
"Gue knows how you feel." Farrel replied, aligning his footsteps with Amanda's. Yep. He knew how the girl felt. Just like Bella felt. Rich, but unhappy family.
"Lo can take my family, your family too. If you want, you can often play at my house. Surely my family is cool" said Farrel trying to get rid of the sadness felt by Amanda.
"Yes maybe, my exception is sih" Farrel continued laughing. Amanda laughed too. They then laughed all the way to the night market.
