SCENE 20

Cheryl wanted to be alone because of the message from her mother. 'Don't get close to that boy' everyone seemed never to agree that she liked Juna, but feelings didn't lie to anything.

Suddenly Cheryl's cheeks heated up. Would she have gone mad if the thought of Juna's father's good looks made Cheryl grimace like a crazy person? Juna's father is very handsome. If Juna's father offered, Cheryl would even want to become the older man's sugar baby.

Juna can open up to her, but Cheryl knows, Juna's heart is locked in who knows. Not to mention, Cheryl closed her eyes if Rose had feelings for Juna. Cheryl didn't know. Rose had thrown that feeling away or still kept it.

Cheryl wanted to contemplate fate alone, but she knew that she needed  Rose to get a little enlightenment.

Cheryl was still sipping her smooth strawberry when she saw a sworn enemy enter. The single a.k.a Aldo! Cheryl had to retract her words yesterday, and the guy is so handsome and cool today. He is wearing a denim jacket and white hat, which makes him suddenly attractive in Cheryl's eyes, even though Prince Cheryl is still number one.

Cheryl was reluctant to call, but her mouth was itching to argue with Aldo.

"You!" Cheryl said sheepishly, looking down, hoping that Aldo wouldn't hear her voice. Cheryl looked down again and pretended not to call Aldo. The boy is standing in front of the cashier.

"Tch! Handsome." Cheryl hissed as she played with her straw. The drink had run out of ice cubes. Cheryl was still looking down, and she regretted calling him and making him in a bad mood.

Looking down for a long time, Cheryl felt Aldo was gone. Finally, the girl looked up.

"Oh shit!" shouted Cheryl, attracting the attention of the cafe visitors who only had a few people. The cafe atmosphere is not too crowded, and there are still many empty cafes. Cheryl massaged her chest and looked at Aldo in horror. The boy just stood in front of her.

"Hahaha. Shit! I'm afraid I'm attached to you." Aldo laughed out loud until he clutched his stomach. Cheryl is annoying, but she is also a very fitting object to disturb.

Cheryl immediately threw an empty glass at Aldo, and the boy avoided her. Aldo finally sat in front of Cheryl. Cheryl just put on a bored face and looked at Aldo with no interest.

"Those who feel ugly are out of my sight." kick Cheryl out. Aldo pretended to find who the ugly figure was, even though he knew Cheryl kicked him out, but he was in the mood to bother Cheryl now.

"Who is that?" Aldo supported his chin and stared at Cheryl closely. Cheryl girl held her breath. Aldo is so handsome today. Cheryl quickly looked away. He had to fight for Juna. Juna's father was so handsome, so you shouldn't waste this matter. She must have a lovely father-in-law so that she can show off everywhere.

"Yesterday, you said I was a stalker, and now you're a stalker." Cheryl pointed at Aldo. The boy pretended to see the left and right sides. Cheryl, who was initially annoyed, immediately laughed at Aldo's stupidity. There's just that guy's behavior that makes her annoyed or can laugh at the same time.

"Here, drink. You're so annoying when you hungry." Aldo puts strawberry juice in front of Cheryl and imitates one of the commercials. Cheryl was pissed off and took the food too. In Cheryl's dictionary, there is no waste of food.

Cheryl wanted to have a stern talk with Aldo, but seeing his face, Cheryl was already 1000 percent sure Aldo would only annoy her.

"So single, will you become obsolete?"

"What's wrong with you? Want to marry me? For me, as long as I want to be polygamous. I want to have many wives." Aldo whispered his face closer to Cheryl when he mentioned 'many wives' Cheryl's body suddenly shivered. She couldn't imagine if Aldo's words were valid.

Relaxed, Cheryl hit Aldo's arm with the half-filled drink.

Aldo just rubbed his arm, and he was sure that Cheryl's girlfriend should go home to the hospital because this girl is accommodating, aka likes to hit.

"Ewwwh! Who wants to be with a bachelor anyway? I said that peopl like you will break up in a minute." Cheryl scoffed. Aldo could only smile. Bad ducklings don't need to be heard. Cheryl is frustrated because she can't reach Juna. Aldo knows exactly who Juna feels for. He wanted to tell Cheryl to back off, but sometimes he didn't have the heart to be with this worm girl.

"Huh my brother hasn't seen for a long time." Cheryl thought of Galvin, who often bullied him too. It's been a while since the guy bothered her on the phone anymore. Usually, he annoyed Cheryl until she felt uncomfortable.

"Busy." Cheryl swallowed nervously. Does Galvin have a girl? But judging from the way he approached him, Galvin was already experienced. Was Galvin a fuckboy?

"He's a lot of girls?"

"I don't know. Ask yourself." Cheryl just sucked in annoyance. And drink the juice given by Aldo.

"Then where is your girlfriend?"

"Why? Are you jealous? I don't have a problem with many wives, but a wife like you, no." Cheryl opened the lid of the juice and deliberately practiced. She didn't hesitate to pour it on Aldo's face.

"Then I was said to be cheating on the scene."

"Listen, you rotten bachelor. Never and ever, I want you! Even if the man stock runs out, I won't want to be with you! Uh, but you're not handsome." and Aldo just laughed.

"And lastly, you're an old maid. Hahaha." Aldo's laughter sounded terrible to Cheryl's ears, and she seemed to hear the sound of a giggling vampire whore.

"I'd rather be an old maid rather than a rotten bachelor."

"That's true." Aldo agreed with Cheryl's prayer.

"Uh, bachelors ... How come! No!" Cheryl could only scrawl. True, being around Aldo continues. Success keeps her at the highest level to refrain from exploding.

"Want to say, don't expect Juna again. Later you will regret it yourself." warning Aldo grabbed his drink, and left. Cheryl was silent for a moment, a feeling of fear assaulting her.

Everyone warned her not to expect Juna. What's wrong with Juna? Who is the real Juna?

"Oh yeah, don't forget to pay for the two drinks earlier. I haven't paid yet," shouted Aldo when he reached the exit.

"You son of a bitch! You bastard!" shouted Cheryl no less forcefully.

_____________________

Cheryl finally asked to meet Rose. Today, Rose's theme is wearing a denim jacket like Aldo and a long, soft yellow floral skirt. Rose looks mature wearing that outfit and not forgetting a small watch, adding to the impression of sweetness and maturity.

Rose raised her eyebrows and coded Cheryl what she wanted to talk about. Cheryl took a deep breath. She ordered another drink, had three bottles of drink in her stomach, just waiting for his turn to explode.

"So? Tell me, what's the problem bothering you." Cheryl was silent for a few moments.

"Juna," Cheryl replied shortly. Rose immediately changed her seat and seriously wanted to listen to Cheryl's complaint about Juna.

"What?"

"How do I say it. I've met Juna's parents. They are nice, and I am also very kind. But, right at the house, there is my mum. Mum said no, Juna is not good." Cheryl argued against her second mother, in addition to her biological mother.

"Hm. Difficult, you should ask yourself personally, what do you want," said Rose wisely.

"Yes, I still want to be with Juna." Cheryl is still Cheryl's stubborn girl. Whatever she wants, she has to get.

"Yes, fight for it."

"But, Juna himself doesn't seem to want to open his heart." this time, Cheryl's voice sounded so weak. The prince on horseback was never sensitive to her. Somehow the boy saw her beautiful self, but for Juna, Cheryl was just a noisy girl.

"Yes, effort and patience. Your feeling, my Cheryl is not easy to give up."

"So, Rose still loves Juna?" Cheryl asked suddenly. Rose choked. She still have feelings for Juna, if she want to be honest, but Rose doesn't want to be selfish. Rose cleared her throat, and their discussion became uncomfortable now.

"Um ... There is."

"What's there?"

"Still a little. But I don't want to be selfish." Cheryl's heartfelt a pinch. How much did Rose sacrifice herself? But it seems that she has never repaid the favor for Rose's kindness all this time.

"M-may I just step back?" Rose immediately hit the table. If allowed, she wanted to hit Cheryl's head in the head to make it work. Unfortunately, she was too fond of this noisy girl.

"Been this far, and you want to give up?"

"Juna himself showed that he wasn't interested at all," said Cheryl weakly.

"Life is full of struggles. As a race, you need to try to reach the finish line to reach the word happy." Cheryl just complained to the wise words of Rose's words.

"I'll help. Whatever makes you happy, I'll help." Cheryl's tears fell. For the sake of heaven and earth and their contents, there is no human like this, sacrificing her happiness for the sake of others.

"But, I don't want Juna out of pity."

"Show him your pure love. I assure you, he'll love you back."

"I doubt." Cheryl wiped her tears. If she doesn't want to experience, feel what it is, heartbreak, and bloom simultaneously, Cheryl doesn't have to bother reaching out for Juna, for Cheryl to have a friend like Rose, who has defeated the world and everything in it.

"Pretending to be a doll with a gift. You have to go to Juna's house and burn it," said Rose, embarrassed. She doesn't like to flirt like this, and this is not their friendship. Their friendship was filled with riots.

"Her sister is gorgeous." Rose is silent. Like her own sister, Cheryl loves Juna's sister because she believes they can become a family later, especially her father-in-law, who is so handsome, which makes her heart constantly flutter when she looks at him.

"Are you home?" thinking of Juna's father, Cheryl thought of Rose's father. She wanted to tell the older man. Amidst the bitterness of life, Cheryl should be grateful to be surrounded by so many people who love her.

"Not yet."

"What do you think, if I go out with someone, will Juna be jealous?" thought Cheryl wanted to make it that way. She wanted Juna to feel what jealousy was because he chose someone else over her.

"So, who do you want?"

"Galvin," Cheryl replied firmly.

Rose fanned her face, and she didn't know the boy's track record yet, because Galvin rarely got together with them, if only occasionally he got together.

"I'm not sure what the person is. But just try it." Cheryl smiled. She must be on the stage with other people, so Juna opens his heart, or Juna is jealous. However, Cheryl doubts this ridiculous idea.

"What if I fall in love with Galvin for real?"

"Yes, go ahead. For example, if he's nice, gentle, treat girls politely and don't refuse. What all girls need is attention and sincerity."

"Rose and Juna, finally?" asked Cheryl innocently. Rose immediately pulled her best friend's hair. Her crazy friend didn't change. What speaking out from her mouth can not be controlled.

"No, Cher. I know myself and maybe find something else." Cheryl nodded. She will try to get close to Galvin and make Juna jealous. After that, she will return to Juna. Say she's evil for making Galvin just a stepping stone, but Cheryl wants to know how Juna feels about her. Juna and all the seriousness made Cheryl wish to die.

"Thanks for understanding," Cheryl said sincerely.

"Whatever!" said Rose in annoyence. For what sake, Cheryl can speak sincerely like that? The girl is usually ungrateful.

"Can't be serious a little." Rose stuck her tongue.

"So, I have arranged the strategy. What should I do with the approach first?"

"Shoot straight." Rose laughs. This was the Cheryl she knew, this girl's trademark. Straightforward and shameless.

"Okay, try it now." Shamelessly, Cheryl pulled out her cell phone.

Cherylalala: I know, you're the only one God shows you. Can you show God's love?

Cheryl pointed the message to Rose. Rose frowned at Cheryl's ambiguous words.

"You want to shoot people or want to preach?" Rose protested. Cheryl deleted the message and thought of words that fit.

Cherylalala: I'm sure you are my ribs, save your backbone, for our little family later.

"Shit! I was amused by your words."

"Huh! all the words, no one got hit." Cheryl was embarrassed. It felt like she wanted to throw her cellphone away because she was too annoyed.

Cherylalala: I am a desperate girl. Can you give me a rainbow? Even though the rainbow is only for a moment, the color gradation will never be forgotten :)

Those are Rose's words. According to Rose, this is a slightly elegant form of self-offer, undoubtedly not as tacky as Cheryl's message.

"How?" Rose showed the message she made. Cheryl just nodded and let Rose send the message. Rose smiled with satisfaction, and she hoped that after this, Cheryl would be happy. With anyone, Cheryl deserves to be satisfied.

"But my mum." Cheryl's face turned sad. Still shaking in her head, her mother who intercepted her, don't let her be with Juna.

"Why?"

"She don't like Juna." Rose nodded in understanding. All parents will behave like that to warn their children to be more careful and selective in choosing a partner, and it is up to the partner to convince people to know that he can be accepted. Rose is sure that Cheryl's family can take juna.

Hello, my princess, I'm the one who you are looking for. I'll treat you like a queen. I promise I won't make you regret choosing me. 'the one.' Just call me that name.

Cheryl smiled. Whoever, 'the one' is sincere to her, Cheryl will keep her feelings entirely for her. And the journey has only just begun.

Have a good walk in the beautiful world of Cheryl.

We'll play the guesswork from now on.

Read every chapter carefully. Because 'the one doesn't know his identity.

Cheryl's dark secret hasn't been revealed. Usually, I like to input in the chapter of the '30s. So, let's lighten up now.
