Chapter 29: Bab 28

STARLA stared at the change in God's face. Then, the girl raised an eyebrow.

"Why did your face change immediately?" asked Starla, "Wow, must be an SMS from a debt collector,

huh? That's why the debt is paid."

"Your nutmeg debt collector," said Dewa.

"After all, your face immediately sour. Like a debt collection. Ha ha ha." Starla chuckled.

"Ha ha ha," replied Dewa mimicking Starla's laughter with a mocking tone.

Lord Ryoji:

I went home from school there. Want me to take Starla?

Arjuna Pradipta:

No, I want to talk about him.

Lord Ryoji:

Just chat

Arjuna Pradipta:

I'm waiting for you to come here.

The god's forehead frowned again. The boy finally hung up his cell phone, and turned to stare at Starla.

"Can I stay?" asked Dewa.

"Just live, Wa. I'm used to it," answered Starla.

"Seriously. I have something important to do."

"Fine, take it easy. Since when have you thought about me?"

"From now on," answered Dewa looking straight at Starla.

Starla was silent with both eyes staring straight back at God's gaze. The two of them looked at each

other for a long time, until the god broke their eye contact first. The boy rose from his position.

"I'll pull it out first, I'll tell people to take care of you." The boy then left without waiting for an answer

from Starla.

Dewa's big motorbike was neatly parked in the hospital parking lot. The boy stepped into Arjuna's ward.

In less than ten minutes, Dewa arrived in front of Arjuna's room and entered. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Lo yourself?" Dewa asked when he saw that Arjuna's room was quiet. There are no parents or siblings

to look after.

"My parents have to go back to Singapore, Ajrina also has an important meeting at the office,"

answered Arjuna which made Dewa nod in understanding.

"So, what's up?" Dewa pulled out a chair, then sat next to Arjuna's bed.

Arjuna seemed to take a breath, then turned his head. "I'm going with my parents to Singapore, Wa."

"Why?"

"The doctor said, I have an early stage kidney disease. Everything can still be treated quickly, my

parents force me to treat it in Singapore."

"Jun ...," Dewa looked at his friend with a look that is difficult to interpret, "why is that?"

Arjuna smiled faintly. "The stabbing has a positive impact. I can know my illness earlier."

"How long are you there?"

"I don't know, maybe weeks or months?"

"And you mean told me to come here, what's wrong?" asked Dewa.

"First, and most importantly. Stop making EAGLE kids hang out in clubs, let alone drinking. I don't want

you all to get sick like me. Stop smoking. You can be naughty, but we have to stop damaging ourselves

by stopping drinking or smoking."

The god sighed. "We haven't done it all in a while, Jun."

"Just when you were in a coma, all activities stopped." Arjuna chuckled.

"Then, what else?"

"Starla ... take care of him."

"Actually, who is he? Why do you two seem to have known him for a long time? Don't we both know

that girl?" asked Dewa curiously.

Arjuna pulled a wry smile. "If I tell you to take care of him because he is more valuable than anything.

Who do you think he is, Wa?"

"Don't play guesswork, you know I don't like it," said Dewa.

"I didn't tell you to guess." Arjuna chuckled, "life is full of puzzles."

"Get started." The god rolled his eyes lazily.

"Well, in essence. Starla is more valuable than anything. As long as I'm not around, please take care of

her. I trust you, Wa."

"Why did you tell me to take care of her? If she's an important and valuable girl in your life, aren't you

jealous if I have to be with her every day?"

Arjuna chuckled as he shook his head. "You yourself said that you are not the type to fall in love easily.

Especially a Starla model girl, not really your type. What should I be afraid of?"

"Yes ... you're right. I'm not the type to fall in love easily," said Dewa. Looks sure even though his heart

is in doubt.

"Just keep on her side, be her defender," said Arjuna staring at Dewa full of confidence.

"Her body defender ...," murmured Dewa.
