(May) I Fall in Love

Girlfriend One Night

Mr. Liam and his two handsome sons Zayn and Nevan are enjoying their dinner while occasionally speaking lightly about their respective activities. There were also jokes and advice given by Mr. Liam to his two sons at the dinner table.

If the advice part, of course the person who gets the most advice from Mr. Liam is the youngest Nevan. The middle-aged man received many reports about Nevan during the last nearly two months in Indonesia from his trusted confidant who was assigned to always monitor Nevan's activities.

Although Nevan has never made a fatal mistake while in Indonesia other than skipping school often, but Mr. Liam feels he must always control well his youngest son who is a little stubborn. Of course Mr. Liam also knows about the closeness of Nevan and Haura. Again, he did not want to worry about the life of teenagers. As long as it didn't give any ill effects to Nevan, it was enough for him.

After the ritual of the evening tomb was completed, Mr. Liam and Zayn went from the dining table to the workspace, or just sit back in the family room while talking about his family business with his eldest son.

While Nevan is still faithful at the dinner table even though the teenager is done with his dinner activities.

A smile rose on the lips of the handsome teenager when he saw Haura coming to the dining room. Yes, Nevan's goal still to be there is to wait for Haura who as usual always clean up the dirty dishes every dinner her family finished.

"Why are you still here?" asked Haura astonished. Unlike usual, after dinner Nevan disappeared from the table. But that night Nevan was still in the place complete with a very handsome smile engraved perfectly on his lips.

“Haura, what night is it?”

Haura knitted her brows because of Nevan's question. For a moment Haura delayed her work. The girl's eyes stared directly at the interlocutor who was still sitting sweetly on one of the chairs on the luxurious dining table in the room.

“Sunday Night,” replied Haura plain. The girl looked strangely at Nevan. Wonder what Nevan asked. There's no way it feels like Nevan forgot that tonight is Sunday night.

“Terus?” Nevan asked back.

“Terus?” Instead of answering, it was now Haura's turn to answer the question with a question. In addition, the girl repeated the question that Nevan had given her.

“Huuffff The teenager took a long breath. “Keep that Sunday night you usually do?”

The teenage girl was increasingly astonished by the direction of the interlocutor's question. Haura thought that her friend was so stupid that she did not know that every Sunday night and the other nights Haura always helped her mother's work and then returned to the back pavilion. Whether it's to do schoolwork or directly meet the dream world.

“How long have you been here?” ask Haura later. “I mean, how long have you been back from Sydney to Indonesia?”

“Almost two months. Why, Ra?” now Nevan turned around looking strangely at Haura. Because the question Haura gave was completely unrelated to what Nevan had asked before.

“Keep usually if it's Sunday night or other nights, you see me what I do at this hour?”

“Emm…. Usually you help your mother, Bik Siti and Bik Nur prepare dinner. Or don't help you wash dirty dishes after dinner. After that you return to the back pavilion to study or sleep. Sometimes I talk in the back gazebo.” Nevan dictates one by one Haura's activities each night. Everything Haura did was recorded perfectly in Nevan's head.

“That you know. Then why are you asking me Sunday night activities?”

Nevan grinned the horse while scratching his non-itchy nape. The handsome teenager really felt stupid with his own question. Intentions want to play the codes with Haura, but in fact the code Nevan gave failed miserably.

“Yuk road, Ra.” Take Nevan finally.

Actually Nevan did want to invite Haura to go out for a walk on Sunday night. Enjoy a long night for teenagers in general. Whether it's just a walk, a watch, hanging out at a contemporary cafe or just spending time in the town square.

“Street? Meaning?”

“Ya street. It's Sunday night.”

“Gak, Van. I can't.” Without thinking long, Haura immediately rejected Nevan's invitation. Then the teenage girl resumed her activities of cleaning the dining table.

“Why can't?”

“Yes can't. I busy. You'll see for yourself what I am now."

"It's not going right now, Haura. I'll wait until your work is done. Want huh?" talk to Nevan again.

Haura just shook her head in response. There was only the sound of plates and spoons clinking.

"Why not?"

Haura stopped her activities. Staring directly at his very stubborn interlocutor.

"Nevan, why are you taking me. Why don't you take your girlfriend?" ask Haura again. Though Haura knew for sure that for almost two months Nevan lived in Indonesia, her best friend was never close to any woman other than her. So there's no way Nevan has a boyfriend.

Nevan grunted annoyedly at Haura's words. "What boyfriend? Can't you see that I'm the same to you every day? Where can I find a boyfriend if you always make me worry every time you are far from me. Later if I have a girlfriend who will take care of you?"

"Sorry that I always worry you" said Haura flatly. There is guilt in the teenage girl's tone for always making Nevan worry because of her. "You can have a boyfriend. I don't need you to take care of me, either."

Nevan's words warmed Haura's heart. Be happy? Sure oes. Who is not happy if we get attention from people we like. So too with Haura. Although his love could not be achieved, but at least he could create beautiful memories with his first love.

Moreover, many say that many people fail at their first love. For Haura at least he can be with Nevan even though only a friend. That's enough for him.

"I'll have a girlfriend. But later," Nevan continued.

Later, if I can make sure that my heart is not wrong, Nevan.

While Haura just silently digested Nevan's words. Later? When's? Is there someone Nevan likes. Or is there someone Nevan is waiting for?

For a moment, Haura was able to catch Nevan's gaze as if it was empty. Something was troubling the man's mind. But Haura refused to ask. The girl continued her unfinished work because she always attended Nevan talks.

Meanwhile Nevan smiled bitterly. Laughing at himself. The handsome teenager turned his eyes back to look at Haura who was currently on the other side of the dining table. Opposite Nevan's seat.

"We're going, Ra." asked Nevan again who still survives his wish.

Haura just let out a long breath. The girl did not stop to think where Nevan's nature came from so forced. It is inversely related to Zayn.

"I can't Nevan. After this I want to do schoolwork. I've had a week off from school, so I have a lot of work and notes to complete. So I can't take you for a walk."

"I don't want to know, you have to. Tomorrow's Sunday, you can do the job tomorrow."

Haura's face had been perfectly bent on hearing Nevan's words. The man always makes his blood pressure go up because of the nature of Nevan who always forced his will on others.

"You're already ugly, it'll be worse if his face is bent so."

Haura again puffed up because of the words of the handsome teenager. For him Nevan does not need to make it clear that he is ugly, because Haura is quite self-aware that he is ugly and does not even deserve to be friends with a handsome man Nevan.

"I'm ugly. You're trying to be friends with an ugly girl like me."

Nevan just smiled hearing Haura's words. Indeed his intention was to upset Haura by saying that the girl was ugly. But it was not suspected that the fishing was caught well by Haura. Evidently with Haura's face that has been bent perfectly.

Without saying anything else Haura took the pile of dirty dishes she had gathered on the dining table, then prepared to step her foot into the kitchen.

Just two steps Haura was walking, suddenly Nevan prevented her steps. "What do you want?" haura asked in shock because Nevan immediately grabbed the plate in her hand until it almost fell.

"Help you. Let your work be done quickly and we're out for a walk."

Instead of being happy to get help from Nevan, Haura is getting upset. After saying he was ugly, now Nevan even more forced him to want to accompany him for a walk.

In his heart Haura was happy because there were people who took him for a walk, because Haura was very rarely doing this. If only the one who invited him was not Nevan, Haura would be happy to ask her mother for permission to go out for a walk on Sunday night. But because of the invitation from a Nevan, Haura had to reject it. The girl thought she shouldn't have taken Nevan's invitation for granted. Moreover, Haura is afraid that her closeness with Nevan will make Mr. Liam misunderstand their relationship.

A second later the girl took back the dirty dishes from Nevan's hands.

"You don't have to help me and I don't want to go with you either. And you don't make me or I'll drive you to my mother and to brother Zayn if you often make me to follow what you want" Haura threatened. It was a threat that meant absolutely nothing to Nevan.

"Take it to your mother. I'm not scared." The handsome teenager seemed to want to make Haura even more upset.

"Of course, I asked your mother for permission to take a walk."

"What's? When?" Haura almost squealed loudly because of Nevan's words. The girl's eyes had been perfectly fouled due to her disbelief.

"Thus. So I got permission from your mother and you can't refuse me." In this debate Nevan won a landslide. Because since this afternoon the handsome teenager had first asked permission to Bu Lastri to take Haura for a walk.

"So, you don't protest much anymore. Just follow what I want. It's easy."

Haura said she stared intently at Nevan, who was currently standing right in front of her, cursing in her heart at her unqualified friend.

"Now I want to change clothes. And you also have to be prepared."

Then Nevan lowered her head slightly and placed her face right next to Haura's right ear. "You need to get ready because tonight you're gonna be my one-night boyfriend."

After whispering this to Haura, Nevan re-enforced her body. Wiping the top of Haura's head seems to have become a pleasant habit for her. Without saying anything more, the handsome teenager passed by leaving Haura alone still in her place.

The girl's eyes stared at Nevan's departure. "Only tonight? Can I hope forever? Not just your girlfriend, but your life partner. Forever."
