RICH MAN
AS IF GONE

The clock shows at three o'clock in the afternoon, which was where before the man agreed to be invited by the Star, he was relaxing with his family. The girl invites him to meet at the right time, because Rey's family is going on vacation with her extended family.

He was prepared and even though they would meet in an hour.

There, there is Fendi who plays to his house for the first time after several months of disappearing due to busy work. The man was very happy after hearing his best friend visit because he had not played to Rey's house for a long time.

Fendi was on the phone with Jenny. How not, the two lovers are dating but it is very rare to walk together because of Fendi's busyness and also the unwillingness of Fendi to ask Jenny out at this time, the man is determined to be a successful man first before finally daring to ask Jenny against his parents even though it is just a way together.

If it wasn't for Rey, Fendi would have dropped out of school. She is lucky to make friends and is already considered a real child by Azka. He also always tried to be obedient to the man who had given him the job.

"Rey, you want to go now?"

Fendi got up from the bed and pulled the towel that was on the right side of the bathroom door. "Not yet, why?"

"You're taking a bath anyway. If you want to meet the stars, you are ready yet what will you say?"

Rey chuckles at Fendi's question. Because the one who will meet him is the Star, and the girl who will express feelings for Reynand, not he who will express feelings for the girl. Because he once expressed love, but was rejected by the girl.

From a long time ago, when it comes to the Star, the person who has always been his confiding friend is Fendi. Because the man always listened to the simple stories told by Reynand.

The first friend he got at school was Fendi. Starting from entering the same class, always eat together, and choose a good association with Fendi. It sounds so cliche, but Rey has chosen to be good friends with the man because he is always in trouble or pleasure.

As someone who tries to stay good to anyone, it is not uncommon for his kindness to be used by others. But he always believes what he gives to others, will come back to himself, maybe the person he helped forget his kindness. Let God be a witness to what he has done.

Rey has not told her best friend about her being transferred to school by her parents. Although actually arranged by parents is very annoying, but our duty as children only according to if it is the best. Pleasing both hearts is never wrong, perhaps their choice is also the best. He also did not mind because he would enter the pesantren as said by Dimas at that time.

As an older brother who will set an example for his two younger siblings, Rey has made her determination to obey the wishes of her parents. Even her parents started doing it. Where all his needs have begun to be purchased, Dimas also played a role so far to educate Reynand.

Fendi passed to the bathroom. The next few seconds, the notification sound came into Reynand's phone.

'If we meet later, I hope you can understand and understand what I'm going to say. But even though we never have each other, I hope we always meet in the same place every year, maybe I'm selfish always asking you for time. But I also try to keep your heart from getting hurt. I don't mean to disappear, I want to be searched, searched and then you find'

Rey finished reading the message and put her phone in her pants pocket while waiting for Fendi to return from the bathroom.

Fendi came out of the bathroom while drying her hair. "Rey, wait for Asar first how? Let it be good that we walk later after prayer,"

Rey nodded and pulled out her phone while playing the game and lay down on her bed.

Plaques

Rey complained and rubbed his eel because it was hit by Fendi. "Fucking pain,"

"The mosquito knows,"

"Campret, your excuse only once," Rey protested.

The man grinned and lay down beside Rey while opening the online game that was on his phone.

"War Lo's father?" ask Fendi.

"Follow, it's night time like it's starting, now it's still waiting for that time, right,"

"Rey good attack, lo in the order of one loh. Don't lose, you lose, I'm botakin lo,"

"Geez, my base was attacked, shucks. I'm not open for two days,"

"No, I never played. Busy just lo,"

"Gue is working, after all while waiting for the old upgrade, I was waiting for everything I upgraded was finished," explained his best friend as he began playing the game.

Rey got up from her bed. "Campret, just got my 1st star, bro,"

"Well, you're a moron,"

"Anjiiir,"

Rey put her phone on the bed. "Gue wudhu first, want adhan nih," he told Fendi.

The man nodded and let Rey leave just like that. After Rey disappears, Fendi bravely opens Rey's phone. View the contents of the chat from Bintang. It turns out Rey was just retaliating.

He put the phone back into position. "Gue doesn't want you to be disappointed, bro. You're like my brother,"

Rey came back from the bathroom and held a prayer mat there. "What is adzan?"

"Prepare first" replied Rey.

He sat down next to Fendi.

"Bro, I have something to tell you, lo,"

"Regard?"

"I'm sorry, I have to tell you this story because this has all been my parents' second choice, because I want to be happy with them. I agree with their choice, too,"

"What's the fuck you want?"

"Gue wants to change schools,"

"Huh?"

"Yes, my parents want me to go to his friend Om Dimas's boarding school,"

"Oh my goodness, Rey. You've gone up to third grade, you don't want to enjoy the good times?"

"For me, enjoying youth in such a way is a waste. Especially when I have to be a messy person just out of love, bro,"

"Is it because of the stars?"

"Not only that, my parents want me to be like I used to be. He misses me, and as a big brother who will be an example for his two younger siblings, I want to change schools and learn religion better. And as for my meeting of the same stars, maybe this is the last one,"

"Seriously?"

"What hurts more than being hanged without anything? The kindness of him that has been lost so far, isn't the kindness we usually get from him suddenly just gone, it's the most painful thing?"

Fendi nodded in understanding with what his best friend said. He also agreed that if it was the best thing for Rey, he agreed with all of that.
