I started to be annoyed. "Why are you so prejudiced? I don't think I can have a friendly talk with a popular girl like you." I stress my sentence on the word POPULAR. "I'd better be off."
She held my arm when I tried to get up." Hey, come back here! I was just joking, alright?"
I retorted. "I didn't see you were joking at all."
She flashed a smile. "I'm sorry if I sounded that way. But seriously though, I would love to talk to you. Even probably become your friend."
"Probably that's why you don't have a lot of friends although you are popular."
She chuckled. "You got me there. But honestly, I don't care about having a lot of friends. All a need is one good friend or two who will be always by my side."
"Oh really? I can't imagine living your life. To be honest, I need people. I always need their help."
She sighed. "That's because you're weak. People like us don't need anyone. We can survive without them." She sounded really confident.
"You're right. I'm weak, and you're strong. You can buy everything. You can even buy friends if you want." I actually wanted to find out her human sense.
"Money isn't everything, Dinn." She crossed her arms on her chest. "I don't use money to buy friends. I use it to buy respect and power."
"Oh, really? So you got respect with your money?" I didn't say anything about power because in reality people buy power with their money. Don't talk about the presidency, governors, or mayors, even to be a kepala desa you have to spend a lot of money before become one.
