Gara remained silent behind the wheel after arriving at the sprawling grounds of the Anggara family five minutes ago. His eagle net glared sharply towards the front. It was as if wanting to destroy the female figure inside there which continued to be the reason the mother had been bothering her lately. If it wasn't for his calm, Gara wouldn't have come here.
The man who this year will touch the number twenty-five snorted before opening the car door with a rose and a parcel box on his arm. And for God's sake, it wasn't his wish. Mahen had prepared all that and of course it was on the orders of the mother.
His calm face was not disturbed at all when he found a friendly welcome from the officials there. Because only a small head down and keep going straight with long legs.
As if he already knew that the person he wanted to go to was not in the lower area, Gara went straight to the second floor with the direction of a loyal servant guiding him to the door of Abby's room.
Because he stopped the movement of the servant who wanted to open the door for him and immediately gave a sign of expulsion with his hand. He is not used to talking to strangers.
The white knob of the door was opened by Gara slowly. The typical scent of lavender which he regretted as the aroma of the woman immediately greeted his nose when the door was wide open completely.
Because fixated in the middle of the door when he found a pale-faced woman sitting leaning on the head of the bed with eyes staring bored at the television show in front of him. Meksi so, his hands so actively put one by one pieces of peeled apples into his mouth.
Abby doesn't look like Gara imagined. The woman seemed undisturbed despite knowing that someone was now entering her room. And somehow the man was quite disturbed by this fact.
"Come in! I'm not gonna eat you, Gara." Abby's sarcastic remarks sounded quite irritating. But on the other hand, Gara also felt a bit strange because the tone of the woman's speech was a little quieter than usual.
Gara resumed his steps, approaching the figure of Abby who also began to look at him. But unlike usual who always had a lot of behavior, now Abby just quietly waiting for the man to talk.
In a few seconds, the two people just stared at each other without anyone making a sound. Gara who stood with the gift in her hand looked quite sweet as she looked at Abby who was looking up at her. The orange dusk bias passed through the window, making the two figures as if shrouded in warmth.
Sighing again for the second time on the same day, Gara finally sat on the chair closest to the bed after storing the parcels and flowers he carried on the nightstand.
"You look good even after a month of sleep. I thought you wouldn't wake up again." He said with origin even though his eyes did not say so. The figure of Abby who is without makeup and looks natural is a new sight for her.
Instead of answering, Abby was instead interested in the red roses that Gara brought. Slowly, her clasped hands took the flower and kept it on her lap. His white blanket covering Abby's legs makes the rose look more striking.
"Thank you for coming." Abby said sincerely with eyes that could not be separated from the gift of roses.
"I wouldn't have bothered to come here if it wasn't for my mom. So, don't get a big head!" his tone was still taut, not softening at all.
Abby chuckles at him, "yes, I know."
The woman raised her gaze and her eyes immediately met with a dark look Gara who was also looking at her with a frown.
Whether consciously or not, Abby's hand was raised to gently rub the wrinkles on the smooth forehead. "You'll get old faster if you keep expressing yourself like this."
Abby gasped at what she had just done, then she quickly moved her hand away. But it lost quickly with a big hand because it had already grasped his wrist.
"What are you doing?" sizzle Gara slowly with a more horrible face. The man most dislikes being touched by 'foreigners'.
Abby pensive for a moment when she found a sharp gaze of Gara who was like drawing out her heart. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean me"
"Abbyscan. I think the accident will make you aware. But in fact, you remain shameless. Act like a cheap woman with your pale face. You want me to sympathize?" gara's sentence is so full of emphasis. Even with the grip of his hand that tightened made Abby grimace. His body was still in pain in some parts, but the man deliberately made it even more painful.
Besides, what was with him just now? why is he acting out of bounds? it was as if he could not control himself. His hand was moving without being ordered.
"Sorry, Gara. But can you please let go of my hand? that hurts." Abby grimaced with eyes that were still staring at Gara.
The man snorted and immediately let go of his grasp violently making Abby curse inwardly. This guy was asking to be beaten up. Just look if his strength has recovered later, he will definitely repay him.
Feeling that her mood was bad, Gara quickly stood up making the single chair she was sitting in squeaked out loud. "I'm a little bit hopeful that the accident caused you to lose your memory so you can forget about me and stop bothering me. But I seem to expect too much."
His eyes looked around and immediately snorted violently when he found some pictures of himself beautifully displayed there. When they got engaged, when they were on vacation at the beach, during Abby's school graduation party and the last is a photo of himself alone that he did not know when he was taken.
"See all these photos? I was wondering.." Because he stopped his words and looked back at Abby like he was holding back pain, but the man did not care. "..How much has the love that you have always held for me grown?"
The two were silent for quite some time, busy with their respective thoughts.
"Abbyscan. Aren't you tired of all this?" gara's tone of voice sounded low, she seemed to be quite desperate.
Turn your face towards the open balcony door. A beautiful garden filled with green plants and colorful flowers greeted his vision from up there. The slowly dim orange rays made the place feel so desolate. For a moment, his eyes closed only to remember the shadow of his teenage years laughing with little Abby in that place.
"It's so sickening." His sigh softly at the night wind that will soon come to say hello. Both hands clenched at the sides of the body with a look that had already returned to Abby.
"I'm sick of seeing your smile always seen when we meet. I'm sick of seeing your glowing eyes twinkle when I look at me. I'm sick of hearing your whining when you visit my office and ruin my tenure." Put emphasis on every word he says. Not caring about Abby who is down, who might feel hurt by her words.
"And what makes me sick the most is the fact that we're bound like this." Because he said slowly with a clear tone was tired.
"Go!"
The young man's thick eyebrows rose when he found Abby's hoarse voice chiming in her words.
Abby slowly raised her gaze. Showing a face full of tears with eyes that shine softly. The woman seemed to be in pain.
A little jolted at him. I didn't expect to be faced with a situation like this. The man had never seen Abby cry before.
"Abbyscan.."
"GO!" Abby shouted with all her might as she slammed the pillow nearby towards the surprised Gara.
Before long, the servants entered after hearing the commotion inside Abby's room. They were both shocked and confused by what was happening. So, they just fell silent rigidly in the corner of the room waiting for orders.
Because I don't talk much. After looking once more at Abby who started sobbing, the man left without saying goodbye and greeting. Out of the Anggara residence, carrying a handful of strange feelings that are quite disturbing his mind and heart.
"That brash guy.." Abby shouts vengeance at the open door of her room.
"Miss, are you okay?"
"What can we do for you?"
Lina and Mira approached Abby cautiously.
The one asked was still silent as he wiped the tears that had soaked his cheeks.
Before long Abby said, "burn all the pictures of the man!"
