"Okay, please do not keep us in suspense. Tell us when did it happened?", Juan asked dan melompat naik ke atas katil.
"Did you both planned this meeting in Bali?", Khai pulak mengajukan soalannya.
"Come on girls, I am tired and hungry. Let's order room service and I'll tell you as we eat....", aku memujuk mereka.
"Okay, janji ya....?", Khai stressed. I nodded and replied, "Janji". I closed my eyes. I'm picturing Imran in my head....I don't believe in reincarnation but if there is, I want it to be you, Imran, in every single life of mine.
It was 10 p.m. when our food arrived. We sat and ate quietly. Not a single word between us as we enjoyed our meal. Then I started to tell Juan and Khai my story.
"It started that day itself, Khai. Betul telahan kau. Dia menyimpan perasaan terhadap aku. Cuma aku saja yang tak nampak. Kau tahu dia hantar aku balik ke pejabat dari EPF that day. His car broke down and we shared a Grab. I turun at EPF and he headed to Putrajaya. Habis saja appointment aku at EPF tiba-tiba dia datang jemput aku dengan kereta dia. Sampai pejabat he asked for my number.", aku perhatikan muka Khai and Juan kusyuk mendengarkan cerita aku....
"A few days later he whatsapp me and send a picture of him surfing...". Aku pun menunjukkan gambar Imran di dalam album talipon bimbit aku. Terbeliak mata mereka.
"Wow he is a surfer. No wonder lah he likes to come to Bali......I want to see him topless...", terkekek Juan ketawa. Aku tumpang sekaki jugak.
"Bukan topless lah...itu untuk perempuan. ....bare chested.......", sampuk Khai.
"We messaged each other and agreed to me at HRC last Thursday night....", Juan menambah lauk sayur campur ke dalam pinggan dia.
"Bagi aku fresh oren tu. Kering tekak bercerita....", Juan terus menghulur segelas air oren yang dihiasi dengan sepotong oren dan payung koktel.
"You know what....(aku meneguk air oren..), rupanya dia kenal Kasyaff. Imran was at my parent's kenduri that Thursday night. Tak sempat aku nak jumpa dia tiba-tiba he disappeared.....", aku pun selesai makan.
"Aku dengan penuh semangat drive terus ke HRC. But I got stood up by him....I stayed until past midnight batang hidung dia pun aku tak nampak...!", aku menunujukkan frustration aku.
"Then what happened?", asked Khai.
"Aku baliklah....tak kan la aku nak melepak kat situ lagi...", aku jawab.
"Habis tu kau tak call dia ke?", Juan bertanya.
"I did. Several times and also texted him. Tapi dia tak reply pun....", I explained.
"When I arrived at my Condo, he was there waiting for me...he said he was a bit confused of what he heard from Kasyaff. The reason he did not turn up at HRC sebab Kasyaff have been telling his friends yang dia dah bertunang....dengan aku....Imran wanted to confront me whether I am really engaged to Kasyaff. At the time he didn't know Kasyaff tu my brother. We went for a drive. That was our first date. Well,.....and the rest is history.", aku mengakhiri cerita aku.
"And this trip to Bali, was it planned?", Juan wanted to know.
"Tak.....I tak plan pun. One night after I had a huge row dengan Abang Ngah, I called Imran. He told me that he's travelling to Bali for a business trip. And I told him my friends and I will be vacationing in Bali this weekend. Kita dah booked dulu tiket kita kan....?", trying to convinced both of them that it was just a coincidence.
"So we're here in Bali to spend time and have fun. Let's celebrate our friendship.....by getting some sleep....", and I instantly jumped on to the bed.....and we laughed. Let the vacation begins.......
"Wah dasyat jugak Kasyaff boleh mengaku dia dah bertunang dengan kau.", Juan said.
"Yeah, aku marah dia and told him that I don't feel the same way he does. Tapi dia tak nak dengar...Itu yang aku benggang dengan Abang Ngah aku tu. I just wanna rest and release some stress kat Bali ni.", sambil memeluk bantal.
"Yes, Khai......I think I like him a lot.....", lalu tersenyum memandang ke arah Khai.
