My Hero Crush 66. Dad's Order; Absolute
"This is not a hangout place; get out of here!" I looked annoyed at my two friends, who were lying on a chair in the small garden corner of my shop.They always do this, lying here eating snacks and watching movies. Luckily, my customers never mind their presence. Come on, it's like I have two wayward children who always follow me everywhere."You don't know how stressed I am? Where should I continue my studies? We graduated a week ago, but I'm still confused about where to go to college!" Vivian exclaimed as she straightened up and looked at me with narrow eyes.Studying? Of course! Everyone is busy with college preparations. We graduated from high school a week ago, and at a time when everyone already has their dream university, only the three of us are still relaxing in this place without knowing whether we should go to college or not.Dad and Grandma kept forcing me to return to Jakarta to continue studying at the top universities there. It's just that I'm not sure if I'll be able
My Hero Crush 67. Farewell
"What?" shouted Calvin with a booming voice. Now, the entire room in this cafe was filled with that very loud voice. I'm used to this, so it's fine with me. He's just that kind of person."Calvin, don't make a scene!" Vivian slapped the back of Calvin's head, making him wince in pain.I just sat pretty and showed my innocent smile in front of Vivian and Calvin."I heard that the university in Jakarta is quite good; I will wholeheartedly support it if you continue your studies there! Your future will be bright there!" Vivian exclaimed enthusiastically."Can you think again? There are so many good universities in this country that, even if you want, you can study abroad! Why do you have to go back there?" Calvin retorted with sharp eyes."So what if Kei returns to Jakarta? Her father is there, and the university is also quite good, so where is the problem?" Vivian growled, glaring at Calvin.I nodded slowly. I know why Calvin doesn't like it; he doesn't like it when I'm in the same town
My Hero Crush 68. Come Back Home
"Welcome Home!" Dad shouted, unlocking the house's security alarm.I laughed at some of the traps I had memorized by heart.I thought Dad had given up his habit of experimenting, but he hasn't.I stepped in my dad's footsteps because if I hadn't, I would have stuck to the glue on the very sticky floor. My memory immediately floats back to when Gab was trapped there. Poor boy."Don't touch anything before I finish entering the password!" Dad ordered.I nodded and took a deep breath. What if a good person wants to visit? It's quite dangerous."Well, hasn't the manager of this estate changed and tightened security? Why are you still doing this?" I asked as soon as we entered the house."Unlucky days aren't on the calendar; didn't you know that?" said Dad casually.I nodded reluctantly. Yeah, that's true... It's just that this is a bit excessive.I roamed my eyes all over the house. The home still looks and feels the same as it did the last time I set foot here. And it immediately reminde
My Hero Crush 69. Looking at You from Afar
My hands are shaking, my legs feel so weak, and my heart is going crazy. I can even hear the pounding sound.I should have just said yes to Dad's offer to investigate where Kenan went to college. Because I rejected him, I had to bear the consequences of being on the same campus as that guy.How about now?Kenan stood ten meters from where I was. He's having a casual conversation with Gab as well as another guy I don't know. He looks very healthy and happy.It seems Kenan has forgotten about me and is living a good life. I'm grateful for that.Now, my job is just to dodge as much as I can.I'm not sure how Kenan will react if he sees me. He could have been angry or even indifferent; even so, I didn't want to make things worse by showing up in front of him.Just think positively; Indonesia Jaya University is very big. Once Study Orientation is done, we won't be doing the same activity. So, I dodge as best I can."So, you're here, huh?" Someone shouted from behind me.I looked back and f
My Hero Crush 70. Motor of Million Memories
It's Kenan's motorcycle! I trotted over to the parking lot and stood near a motorcycle that I knew exactly who owned. A motorcycle with a million memoriesI don't know when I will be able to go around Jakarta with that motorcycle again. I feel like I've missed it so much.I took my phone and took some photos of the motorcycle.I couldn't take a photo of Kenan, but it didn't matter because I could take a photo of his motorcycle. The memories in my brain are much clearer than a cell phone camera."You need permission to take a picture of someone's stuff!" someone said from behind me.My body freezes at the sound that I have long missed.What should I do now? Does Kenan recognize me?"Why are you silent?" Kenan asked again.I can't think of anyway. Luckily, my feet moved quickly ahead of my thoughts.I ran fast without looking at Kenan again.Even if it's just for a moment, even if it's just a glimpse, I feel happy hearing that boy's voice. It's like he doesn't recognize me, and that's g
My Hero Crush 71. Nature Lovers Club
I hid behind the campus hallway wall when Kenan and a girl walked past me. The world is so narrow. I thought it wouldn't be easy for us to pass each other on a campus this big, but it turns out I see Kenan everywhere.Is this karma?After they passed me, I turned around and stared at their backs moving away.The girl is very beautiful; she has beautiful long hair, and her white skin shines like a Korean girl. Don't forget her tiny face with a sharp nose and tiny lips.Hum, yeah, I remember what Clarisa said about Kenan's super-beautiful new girlfriend. Clarisa was not exaggerating; the girl was super beautiful. She and Kenan are very compatible."No use regretting," someone whispered right behind my ear.I jumped in surprise and almost hit my arm on the wall."Why are you so easily startled?" asked Adipati, confused.For whatever reason, I'm not the one who's easily startled, but he's the one who's too shocking.If he wants to talk, he should just talk directly; why whisper? What abou
My Hero Crush 72. Found Out
"Reforestation?" yelled Dad as I moved the mango tree saplings in the yard into pots."Yes, today our club's activity is reforestation. There is a park that is now very arid and neglected. It's not that far from campus," I answered quickly.My dad nodded slowly and walked over to me."If you want, I will buy lots of tree seeds for you!" cried Dad with great enthusiasm."No, don't do that! The club members all brought one sapling, so I'm sure that'll be enough!" I looked at my dad with a meaningful look.Well, it would be a pain to bring lots of saplings to campus, and that would attract attention. I don't like being the center of attention."Oh well, how about fertilizer or some other plant vitamins?"Again, I shook my head rapidly."Okay, just tell me if you need something later! Ah, I have to go soon; I have an important meeting to attend. Go take a taxi to campus!" Dad gently stroked the top of my head before finally leaving the yard.After I finished preparing the tree seeds, I im
My Hero Crush 73. Calvin's Threat
"Stop pacing! What are you really worried about?" yelled Dad, looking at me with a bleary look.What am I worried about? It's all about Kenan; what else?"You keep pacing like an iron!" added Dad.I stopped walking and took a deep breath. I'm considering skipping class today.I'm afraid Kenan will meet me; I'm not ready for that."Kei, you can be late; don't you want to go now?" Dad folded his newspaper and walked over to me."Can I not go today?" I asked stupidly.Dad glared sharply, then pushed me towards the door of the house."I have to take you to campus, it seems! It must be ensured that you get to campus!" After saying that, he walked away from me. He put the car keys in the TV table drawer and followed me out of the house.Oh, it looks like I don't need to take you today," said Dad, looking at the gate.I followed his gaze and immediately went limp as soon as I saw Kenan's motorcycle enter the gate.Should I pretend to be sick and lock myself in my room?"Long time no see," Ke

My Hero Crush 127. Happy Ending
The heat of the city of Jakarta immediately greeted me as soon as I left the airport. I waved at one of the taxis, and immediately got into the taxi while the driver put my luggage in the trunk.It's been more than five months since I left Jakarta to volunteer in one of the remote towns in Kalimantan. A month after the birth of the twins, a very big disaster occurred in Kalimantan. I decided to join an organization from my campus to volunteer there. Because the conditions were so bad, I decided to stay there longer than the other volunteers.I asked the driver to take me to a cafe that I used to frequent with Violet.After arriving there, I sent a message to Violet to meet me at that place.“Kei!” Violet shouted from the entrance, making all the customers there immediately turn to look at the girl. It seems like she's still as noisy as before.Violet ran to hug me tightly.“Oh My God! Are you wearing make-up?" shrieked the girl in disbelief.Oh, yes! While I was in Kalimantan, I liked
My Hero Crush 126. Case Closed
Violet and I immediately stood up and looked around when the group of police entered the campus area. Some of them entered the Chancellor's room, and some immediately spread out and arrested several people."What happened?" Violet screamed while hiding behind my back."They came to arrest drug users and dealers," said Vano, who had just come to us with Kenan."Does this have anything to do with Adipati's case?" I asked while looking closely at Kenan.The man just nodded slowly. I breathed a sigh of relief hearing that."Unfortunately, the perpetrator of the murder is still at large, the police are hunting him in Bali, because they fled there." Kenan looked at me with a sad look.I smiled in response to his words.“Sooner or later they will be found. I am sure of it. After all, the drug suspects had been caught, Adipati's struggle was not in vain. Now just wait for them to be found!” I said casually.Kenan smiled faintly, then nodded slowly. Kenan's cell phone rang, the man immediately
My Hero Crush 125. Clue From Wisnu
"Wisnu?" I shouted, surprised to see who was coming towards us.I turned to Kenan who also looked confused.Wisnu sat down and drank the coffee that we previously ordered for the informant who contacted Kenan."You shopped for necessities for your sister?" Wisnu asked with a smile.I nod quickly."She's seven months pregnant so we bought some things," I said even though I was still confused."Someone keeps following me, so it's safer to meet in a public place like this, as if meeting a friend and having a casual chat," said Wisnu casually.I nodded slowly.“Why don't you message me with your own number? Or if you are being followed, you can say it in a message," Kenan said.Wisnu smiled so widely."I don't know, I'm afraid if my number is tapped or something, it's just my worry. Technology is so scary these days.” Wisnu said, trying to look relaxed.I nod quickly. I don't care what the reason is. I only need the information that Wisnu will convey.“Recently on campus, drugs are spread
My Hero Crush 124. A Hope
"Mafia members who are related to the Marko family," Kenan said slowly.I stared into Kenan's eyes sharply. He said it so confidently.“They did it? So, Marko's family is behind this murder? Why does it have to be Adipati? Why don't they just target me? I mean, Marko is in prison because of me, not because of Adipati. Why are they doing this?”Kenan just shook his head weakly in response to my words."I will investigate, I will bring the culprit before you," Kenan said while stroking my cheek gently."You promise?" I insisted.Kenan nodded slowly without the slightest hesitation.“I doubt if they killed him to get revenge for Marko's capture. I'm sure there are other things that make them target Adipati,” Kenan said slowly.I shook my head slowly. I don't remember if Adipati ever had anything to do with them.“Is there anything I can help you with? How are you going to investigate this?” I urged Kenan.The man just shook his head slowly, he looked at me deeply."Calm down, we have to
My Hero Crush 123. Panda Doll
I'm still here, I'm still with you, when dusk greets me, I feel your presence. You are a source of warmth, comfort, happiness. Why don't you take me with you? You went and left all these memories with me.It's too fast, I'm not ready, I'm not willing to let you go.What shall I do without you, Adipati?What should I do?"Kei..."Violet's gentle voice greeted my eardrums. The girl came to me and sat beside me. I don't want to see her, the whiny me will cry again if I look at my best friend's face.Violet just accompanied me in silence in front of Adipati's grave."It's almost evening, don't you want to go home?" Violet asked quietly.I looked up at the sky which was starting to get dark, the cold wind continued to blow at us."Can't I just stay here? Adipati will be lonely here," I answered quietly."No, he will be angry and sad if he finds out you spent time in a dark and scary place like this," said Violet.Correct. If he saw me, he would definitely be furious.“Your dad and Selena a
My Hero Crush 122. So Far Away
Vano slept curled up on the sofa while Kenan played games on the bed. Violet cleared her throat, making Kenan and Vano open their eyes wide.“Kei?" Kenan shouted as he approached me. He pulled the IV tube closer to me who was still standing in the doorway.“Your face is very pale, are you okay?” I asked slowly.Kenan smiled faintly, then nodded slowly. Violet helped me to sit on the sofa. She then woke up the sleeping Vano and invited him to go to give me space to talk to Kenan.Kenan sat beside me, looked at me from head to toe, and breathed a sigh of relief."It's not your fault, so don't blame yourself," I said matter-of-factly.Kenan immediately averted his eyes, not daring to meet my eyes. He looked nervous. Kenan, who is always full of confidence, suddenly gets nervous when he's with me. That's how much guilt he has.I took Kenan's hand, and then held it gently, making him immediately turn and look at me deeply."This is not your fault. It's just a road I have to walk, we pass.
My Hero Crush 121. Save Me
Marko was still looking at me sharply, occasionally he gripped both sides of my cheeks with one hand.I don't know what was in that man's mind. He could have done whatever he wanted quickly, why was he stalling for time? What does he really want?"What if we do this? I will release you on several conditions!” Marko suddenly shouted."What conditions?""First, you withdraw your report at the police station, second, give Kenan to me!" Marko exclaimed quickly."What?" I screamed in disbelief.“You know, he's not just anyone, I had a hard time injuring him! I've already sent several people to kill him, but it seems like he has nine spare lives. Very hard to kill!”I gaped at Marko's story. Did he ever try to kill Kenan? Why didn't Kenan tell me anything? Oh, I forgot. Kenan never told me anything.“Help me trap Kenan, haven't you two broken up? It should be easy for you to do! Just like you saved Violet by falling into my trap, save yourself by bringing Kenan to me!”My tears just flowed.
My Hero Crush 120. Marko's Trap
"Is this necessary?" asked Selena seeing the presence of a bodyguard among us."Only until this case is over," I said quickly.Selena glanced at Dad, and Dad just nodded slowly."How about you? You might also be in danger, rather than me, you should be guarded by bodyguards!” Selena snapped."Don't worry, I have a handsome bodyguard who will always take care of me!" I wink at Selena mischievously, making her smile knowingly."I'm sorry that I didn't take good care of you, you got into all kinds of trouble like this." Dad came closer to me and looked at me with deep eyes."No, it's not because of you, it's my fault because I used to hide everything from you. If I had just told you everything in the past, things wouldn't have gotten this bad!” I said quickly.Dad hugged me very gently. I don't know when was the last time he hugged me like this, what I know for sure, is it's been a very long time.“I will make sure to punish those naughty kids!” cried Dad with great emphasis.I didn't sa
My Hero Crush 119. Dealing With The Police
The sound of the phone ringing kept disturbing my sleep. Hearing Violet's screams from the cell phone made me very annoyed. If I didn't remember that my cell phone is quite expensive, I wouldn't hesitate to slam the thing on the floor right now.And seriously, why does Violet always use her voice as the ringer on my cell phone? Crazy!I straightened my body, stretched my tense muscles, and took a deep breath of air.Good morning world, today… Please don't be so mean to me.I pulled out my cell phone and picked up a call from Violet.“Please, don't fiddle with my phone anymore! Your voice penetrates my dreams, you know that?” I exclaimed annoyed.A low chuckle could be heard from the other side.“My voice is quite melodious, right? By the way, why didn't you go to class today?"Wait! What did she just say? Didn't go to class? I turned to the side, staring blankly at the digital clock lying on my table.Damn it, the clock shows that I woke up not in the morning but during the day."And
