Love In The Midst of Hostility
Chapter 22 - Becoming Unknown to Each Other

...༻⊚༺...

Zafran smiled obliquely, when the ball hit Ari. He immediately quibbled by warming up.

It took about ten minutes to warm up. Then the entire team is divided so that they can compete with each other.

Lika tried her best to focus her attention on Ari. Hope his feelings for that guy can really grow.

But in reality, Lika could not help but stare at Zafran. How not? Zafran's skill in playing basketball is unmatched. Ari's skills were even far below that guy's. Lika certainly can not boast Ari if the fact looks so.

Lika quickly shook her head strongly. Trying to wake himself up from not paying attention to Zafran again.

'Goddamn 'sorry. Didn't I see him play basketball? Shucks are common! I don't care about sports, ' Lika complained in her heart. He focused his attention again on Ari.

It just so happens that Zafran and Ari are on different teams. As captain, Zafran deliberately put Ari into his opponent's team. Thus, he can easily defeat the guy.

The sound of Zafran's expensive sneakers squeaking up in the field. His movements were not only agile, but also agile. Zafran has put the ball in the ring five times more. Makes the women more excited.

Lika who heard, reflex closed her ears. The spirit he chanted for Ari, was drowned out by the voices of people around. The girl stopped and decided to sit quietly. Then busy yourself playing mobile.

Lika's efforts this time succeeded. He no longer cared about Zafran's performances on the pitch. Lika is just engrossed in looking at her social media development.

As a beautiful and popular girl, Lika certainly has a lot of followers on social media. The number alone reached fifty thousand more.

Without notice, basketball practice was finished. Lika hurriedly moved from the audience seats. It just so happened that he bought a special drink for Ari.

"Wait a minute, Lik. I want to go to the toilet first," Ari said as she stepped foot quickly.

Lika waited on the edge of the field. That's when his attention shifted towards Zafran. The guy seemed to get a lot of drinks from the girls. But Zafran did not drink any of these drinks. He shared it with all the members of the basketball team.

"What the hell!" lika's comments while turning her eyes away from Zafran.

Cindy walked past Lika. He seems to be carrying a fresh drink. It seems clear that the drink will be given to Zafran.

Different from the others, Zafran immediately drank the drink given Cindy. It once again made the other students feel envious.

Surprisingly Lika felt something similar. Especially when watching Zafran develop a smile to Cindy. Galih and comrades were even dumbfounded.

"Zaf, you don't want to mess around, do you? Do you really like Cindy?" timpal Galih doesn't believe it. He raised his voice as Cindy left.

"You know what you are." Zafran responded casually.

"Wait, wait. This is not because of Lika, is it?" Digitize guessing while widening the eyelids.

"Huh? Yeah no! It has nothing to do with the mouth of the chicken's ass!" reply Zafran berkilah.

"But..." Galih wanted to say, but the urung was done when he saw Lika was already behind Zafran.

"Here you!" Lika pulls Zafran's hand. Bringing the guy in so he can speak four eyes.

After feeling in the right place, Lika immediately threw out Zafran's hand. But he could not, because Zafran held his hand back.

"Lo what are you talking about?!" timpal Zafran's.

"Lo why the hell?! Keep waving! I have no intention of competing or whatever! Anyway from now on, don't ever interfere in my business again!" lika growled with a deeply wrinkled forehead.

"Lo what the hell is that talking? I swear I don't know where you're talking?" Zafran. Because Lika was angry for an unclear reason.

Lika grunts rudely. He pulled his hand and managed to escape from Zafran's grasp.

"First of all, right in Bali. I treat everyone not because you want a rival! It was purely my good intention. But you, consider what I'm doing as a war. It's so childish to know?!"

"Keep the second one? Do you think the reason I approached Cindy is because you want a rival too? Is that?"

"Yes! Lo nearin Cindy pas already know my relationship with Ari right?" Lika pointed her index finger at Zafran's face. Bending off full of anger. "Gue perematin same lo ya! I'm dating Ari that's also purely by choice of heart! I love him! I don't want what you're doing to impact my relationship!" pat her chest twice.

Zafran. Somehow her heart ached when Lika said the word love to another man. He speaks a thousand languages. Zafran could not argue, that his proximity to Cindy is nothing. Nothing more than a way to compete with Lika.

"From now on, I don't want any more competition or debate between us! I'm tired of it every day. If we are really enemies, maybe being ignorant of each other is the best thing!" concluded Lika accompanied by a serious facial expression.

"okay! We don't have to talk to each other anymore like now. Especially until the bacot and greatness. Lo's right! That might be the best." Zafran agreed with Lika's opinion. Both of them turned around at the same time. Walk in the opposite direction to each other.

Both Zafran and Lika, they both continued to move forward. Not even once looked back.

Lika tightly closed her mouth. One thing astonished him. Her tears were flowing naturally. The girl doesn't know why. There is a tightness in the chest that is difficult to explain. Even so, Lika tried hard so that her crying was not too clear. He repeatedly removed the clear liquid in his eyes and cheeks.

Simultaneously, Zafran walked with heavy strides. I don't know why the desire to look back is so strong. His heart still feels awkward. Zafran felt something was missing. Especially when Lika talks seriously about the end of all the competition that continues to occur.

"Zaf, your face why is it tangled?" tegur Galih who can watch the sad mimic shown Zafran.

"Gue wants to go home" replied Zafran.

"Huh? We're not playing together?" A little surprised. Because Zafran never once missed his exercise schedule at the gym. He even truant from his tutoring schedule to go to the gym. That certainly makes Galih wonder.

"Well, what the hell is that?! Is this time strong, until you feel frustrated? He's not insulting your family, is he?" Galih.

"No. I want to go home. I'll see you tomorrow!" Zafran refused to explain. He picked up the bag and wanted to hurry home.
