14. I Want You To Be My Friend

"Haji, wait for me!" Bulk shouted as he continued to follow Haji but the young man did not look at him. It continues to walk towards the parking lot.

"Hey, Haji! Are you a woman?" Bulk sarcastically asked that made Haji to stop and look at him.

"What?" annoyed question of the young man while adjusting the helmet he was wearing.

"You always want to walk out. Hahaha!" he laughed softly but he ignored it and immediately started the motor and pulled it away.

"Hey! Come on!!" Bulk shouted but the young man immediately drove away. Bulk scratched his head because he did not know where his friend was going.

"Young Master! I'm going insane because of you!" Bulk said and shrugged. He about to to to turn around when Xing appear to his sight that made him shocked.

"Your friend must be guilty." Xing said.

"How do you say so?"

"By looking at his expression, you can't see nothing but you can stared at his eyes, you can see slot of words he wants to utter."

Bulk smiled at her and lean close to her that made Xing to kick his knee.

"Don't you ever get close to me! Understand?

The girl walk away while Bulk was still lying on the floor and feel the pain of Xings' heavy kick.

______________________________

It was early in the morning when Lia started looking for a job because she could no longer go to school because of the agreement they had with the Chairman. Though painful and regrettable she can do nothing but accept It all. A few hours passed and she went to several restaurants, convenient stores, dry cleaning shops and super markets to ask about work but no one accepted her.

It was late afternoon but she had not seen a job yet. Somehow, he still wants to study even though she still has some part-time jobs but she just does not accept anyone. She crouched down and sat on a bench in the park where she was sitting. She started to removed her shoes and massage it because she could feel pain and tiredness. She walk whole day to find a job. She was sad because she seemed to be deprived of destiny to achieve all her dreams.

She felt that her stomach was boiling with hunger but all her money had been spent because of the fare and food she had earlier. As she sat on the bench she saw a family sitting opposite a large tree and happily eating cotton candy. She smiled because of that. She smiled bitterly and remembered her parents.

'If only I were with You, I would not have had such a hard time. You should have taken me with you, so that we can be happier and always be together. I miss you so much Mom and Dad!' the girl said sadly to herself and the tears immediately flowed.

Although many people looked at her with a look of wonder as to why she was crying alone, they did not stop her from expressing emotion because of the longing for her parents, as well as the frustration with her condition.

It also took her a few hours to cry in the park before she thought of wiping away her tears and got up from her seat to go home to their apartment. The girl looked at her watch and saw that it was 8 pm. It feels good that she doesn't have a job now that's why she doesn't have to worry anymore.

When she came out of the park she could see the road she was crossing towards an alley. He was currently crossing when suddenly there were motorbikes passing on her side. So she immediately closed her eyes and sat down. She shivered as she sat on the road. Her hands were wrapped and seemed to be hugging herself. She was about to get up from her seat with a light that causing her to close her eyes with her bare hands. The girl felt a strong throbbing chest due to the noise and fear of the motor approaching her which at any time could have hit her but she felt her rise to her stand and shortly she saw herself riding on a motorbike driven by a man hugging him.

Because of the speed of the motorbike, the girl hugged the person driving it. She did not know what was happening because her eyes were closed. It did not match to what was happening but she could not help but smell the man. He did not know who it was but the smell of perfume seemed familiar to her. She stopped at the thought of quickly turning the motorbike she was riding on and it stopped.

She immediately went down and bowed in front of that person to give thanks.

"T-thank you so much, Sir! Thank you for saving my life! Thank you so much!" she cried and bowed.

She was surprised when the man came down and immediately took off the helmet she was wearing which surprised Lia.

"H-haji." its shocking response as it met the young man's eyebrow while looking at her.

"Are you really stupid?! You know there are cars passing by but you even managed to cross without looking at the one you are crossing! What if you die there?!! Think about it!" his angry replied

The girl could not speak but kept looking at the young man who still looked at her badly.

"You even managed to sit in the middle of the road? What if a big truck passed by?! You'll die!"

"You speak like you seem to regret my life. You don't seem to be trying to kill me." there was no emotional response from the girl even though her tears were still dripping.

The young man was startled and looked at it. He did not expect the maiden to say this.

"Thank you for saving my life but you have no right to say that I am a fool because first of all, you do not know how I feel. Anyway, you do not feel anything right??"

"What did you say ?! The young man replied angrily." Hah! If you are angry because I did not show up for your tutorial session, please be sorry! You can't force me. I did not know that it was about your studies that lay there. "

"Because you don't care! You did nothing else If You did not listen to yourself! You do not know how to listen to what others are saying!"

"Who do you think you are?!" angry response of the young man.

"Your Grandfather does that for your own good. Why can't you see that!?"

"What do you know?!" its serious but angry response.

"I don't know because I don't know you but I hope you listen around you because that is for your good!"

"Exactly! You do not know me so do not interfere in my life! People like you do nothing but spitting the lives of others just for money! Do not interfere with me because I can erase you from the world. I think you should scared of me." the young man emotionless response but traces of anger at the words he uttered.

Lia turned to the young man and wiped the tears from her face. She felt heavier because of what the young man said. She knew in herself that was not the reason she knew. It has another reason.

"I'm not afraid of someone like you." The girl's serious response was also a reason for Haji to turn to her. "I'm not scared because I know you're not like that. I don't do that because of money. I do that because I want you to be my friend." the maiden smiled to him and immediately walked away.

Haji was hit the motorbike and looked at the girl again until It disappeared from his sight. He immediately got on his motorbike and drove it towards his usual destination to vent his anger and unwind.

The waves and wind were strong but he still chose to sit on the rocks and look at the emptiness. His temper was still there because of what he and Lia commotion but he also did not lose sight of what the maiden said.

'I'm not afraid of someone like you. I am not afraid because I know you are not like that. I don't do that because of money. I do that because I want you to be my friend. '

'I'm not afraid of someone like you. I am not afraid because I know you are not like that. I do not do that because of money. I do that because I want you to be my friend. '

'I'm not afraid of someone like you. I am not afraid because I know you are not like that. I do not do that because of money. I do that because I want you to be my friend. '

It repeated in his mind causing him to sigh and bow down. He smiled and get the small stone to throw on the ocean.

"I don't know why you are not afraid of someone like me. I keep from getting close to someone like you because I know one day, you will leave me too."
