THE CHARM OF THE VILLAGE GIRL
(FEGG) ~ No Need To Hold

Jovan looks so excited when the waiter tells him that Galang has come along with Luri and Nania. He who had been lazing immediately immediately restrained himself so as not to look messy when the idol entered the room.

"Em, how good was I to behave when Nania got in here? Pretending to still be sick or acting like a normal day? But if Nania sees me as weak as yesterday, it doesn't make her feel upset. Just yesterday he hit me. Ah, don't-don't. Others only," murmured Jovan was busy monologuing with himself.

Before he could decide what kind of attitude Jovan would take, Galang, Luri and Nania had already arrived in his room. Jovan then decided to lie down, trying to smile as usual even though her heart had almost burst into pleasure upon seeing Nania's pretty face.

"Why are you, brother? Your smile is ugly. If you want to cry, just cry. There is no need to be resistant" asked Nania who was surprised to see a forced smile on Jovan's lips.

"Nania, don't be. Jovan just got home from the hospital, probably still weak. So it's only natural that he behaves like that" whispered Luri who immediately warned the sister not to carelessly talk. He was afraid that Nania would come back to attack Jovan like she had seen him in the hospital at that time.

"Weak what. He was admitted to the hospital because of his own stupidity, so Big Brother did not need to defend him. People who have shallow thoughts like Kak Jovan must be treated cruelly to realize that what he did at that time was very disgusting. Only cowards usually do such low-key things. And Brother Jovan is one of them!" sahut Nania cetus. He even deliberately spoke in a voice loud enough for Galang and Jovan to hear everything he said.

Feeling insinuated, Jovan becomes clumsy himself made by Nania. It was true that he was a coward for not daring to face the reality that was happening in his family. Galang who saw a sad look on his friend's face immediately came closer. He sat down on the edge of the bed then patted Jovan's shoulder softly.

"This is the beginning of your struggle to strengthen mentally, Jo. Don't give up, think of Nania's words as a whip that can make you better for the future!" said Galang sage.

"I'm not as weak as it was to lose to the poison that Nania's mouth was spreading, Lang. It's true what he said just now. I'm a coward" said Jovan without burden. After that he looked towards Luri and Nania who were looking at him. "Luri, you're lucky to have a sister like Nania. Thanks to him now my brain can go back to normal like it used to. It seems like from now on I will start studying with him. The poisonous words that came out of your sister's mouth got me a lot of motivation."

Luri and Nania throw a glance at each other upon hearing Jovan's words. After that they both smiled, relieved that Jovan was finally able to pass the mental burden that he had been suffering.

"Well, then I'm proud to be friends with you, Brother Jovan. But remember yes, if until yesterday's events repeat themselves I will be a suspect in your death case. Rather than having to feel pain and bear the shame of a delayed death, I would rather poison you so that you can immediately go before God. So think twice if you want to try to commit suicide like yesterday. You hear no?" nania asked as she walked closer to the bed. He chuckles when he sees a small photo of Jovan on the table. "Is this you, brother? It's so ugly."

"Haisshhh, this is you, Nania. Can't you just don't just talk that makes other people emotional? That handsome photo you said was ugly? Oh, I think your eyes are myopic!" jovan protest does not accept his small photo considered ugly.

"Ck, my eyes may be myopic, brother. If I am myopic, I might want to be friends with you and Galang. How the hell!"

Luri and Galang just quietly listened to the conversation of Jovan and Nania. They deliberately allowed these two children to taunt each other in hopes of helping Jovan recover his mentality. But alas, from the closeness that is happening between Jovan and Nania, there are others who are hoping for more. He's Galang. He really hopes that the closeness of Jovan and Nania can help him to get Luri's heart. Not very shameless, is it? But let. While the yellow janur has not curved, it means it is legitimate for Galang to fight for his feelings. Right no?

"Oh yes, Brother Jovan, when are you going to go to school? I miss the ice cream treat from you?" nania asked after making fun of her upperclassman.

"Tomorrow morning it seems like I can go to school as usual," replied Jovan a little disappointed because it turns out Nania instead missed the ice cream she bought rather than her presence. This girl is really good at emotional fishing, right?

"Hey, besides your sliding mentality has your brain also turned senile, brother? Tomorrow is a day off, why are you going to school? Want to meet the Dedemites who live there? Huh yeah?"

"Nania, your tongue is really razor sharp. Can't you talk well? At least comfort me who is suffering this inner being!" rengek Jovan who already does not know should talk especially to Nania. He almost gave up.

"Choose, just complain!" ledek Nania nosy. "By the way you've made up with your parents yet, brother?"

Jovan's face instantly turned strange when Nania mentioned about her parents. Yes, since coming home from the hospital, he was still reluctant to just greet his father and mother. Jovan is still disappointed, and she feels the need to behave like this so that her parents realize that she has become a victim of the selfishness they do. As Jovan was deep in thought, he was suddenly struck by a single blow of inanimate objects on his head. Jovan immediately turned his head, took a deep breath then exhaled strongly once he knew who the culprit was.

"It looks like your brain is still not fully recovered, Brother Jovan!" nagging Nania while shaking her waist. "Listen yes, Brother. As bad as parents are to their children, we must respect and respect them. Because what? Because they are the source of our happiness. Your father and mother may have made a fatal mistake, but they are already sorry. Didn't they also drop the divorce lawsuit from the court? Then let alone the problem, huh?"

Luri immediately calms Nania who is back on the black with the response that Jovan showed to her parents.

"Nania, let Jovan make peace with her heart first huh. We must not force, " said Luri softly.

"Your sister's right, Nania. May if you want to give advice, which should not force the will. You have to understand Nania that it was Jovan who felt it, not us. So don't you be so mean to her, okay?" added Galang felt sorry to see Jovan who continued to be a victim of Nania's mouth cruelty.

"Where can that be, brother!" sahut Nania disagreed with the words of Galang and his brother. "In this world no one knows when death will come. What if when Brother Jovan was busy calming down, God suddenly called his Father and Mother to return to heaven. Did he have to go to heaven just to make up with them? Not funny, right? I know that this is none of my business. I'm just following Dad's advice so we don't carelessly waste our time. What's the point of continuing to buy time anyway? They were Jovan's parents, not his enemies. Right no?"

Unexpectedly, Jovan immediately jumped down from the bed as soon as Nania finished talking. Yes, suddenly he was attacked by a huge fear when he imagined that his Father and Mother had been lying stiff in the chest. Realizing that his attitude was wrong, Jovan decides to go to his parents soon. He does not want to part with them.

Galang, Luri, and Nania stood still while staring at the wide open door of the room. The three of them looked like fools after Jovan left the room.

"Finally Jovan's sister can return to normal as well. She must have been very scared when I told her about her parents' death. Huftttt, it's good to see them make up. Yeiyy!" said Nania excited then lay down on the bed. He feels very satisfied with his efforts in playing with Jovan's emotions.

"Nania, are you sure Jovan didn't go to jump off the top of the attic of this house?" ask Galang worried.

"Not sure at all. But if he dares to do so, then I will break his leg after he lands on the ground. Take it easy, Galang. I won't let Brother Jovan live a normal life again if he still dares to do a stupid act. Haha!"

Galang and Luri both gulped at the evil smile on Nania's lips. Intrigued by what Jovan was doing outside the room, they decide to catch up with her out.

"Cih, ngeyel. Now, Brother Jovan must be crying in his parents' arms. Why don't you believe my words, both of you. Huft!" gerutu Nania's.
