Aldebaran Looking for Love

Chapter 36

"I'm sorry, Ai, so I'm the one who broke you. Etta was really, really." said Al, as his car started to enter the highway.

Ai immediately shook her head.

"I am the bad one. Brother so have to bother nganterin me." He flicked his hand, really feeling bad for Al for having to deliver it.

Actually, after a long argument with Shaletta who was sulking through the message, Ai finally gave up. Shaletta is a great queen! Though Shaletta himself asked Ai for help to accompany him, but look now! He gave up the responsibility to take Ai home again.

After that, Ai also intends to go home by taxi online only. This was the only option she had because she was wearing a party dress. How could he come home with a fleet of ojek?

'Padahatan right dear money, ' Inner Ai, when starting to check the price in the online taxi application.

"Ai, you want to take a cab home?" whispered Al when he saw Ai was comparing prices between one application with another application.

"Yes," Ai replied as she nodded, not paying much attention to Al.

"For the high fare," muttered Ai, unknowingly, when looking at the price listed. All over hundreds of thousands. Wherever possible Ai willing to spend that much money just for a taxi trip a few minutes.

Her view glazed. It was outside the rain so the taxi fare was crazy. Can he wait here for a while? Or the...

AHHH!

He asked Sam to come get him! Let them take their mama for a walk. Her mother has not been out of the house for a long time. There is no sun. This is a good time to bring the mother to see the world.

He immediately searched for Sammy's number.

And Al was a witness to all that.

Ai almost presses the call button to Sammy's number...

But a hand directly blocked him.

"Let me know what you're doing" said Al. He tried to cover up a strange feeling in his heart, which suddenly appeared because Ai called Sammy instead, instead of asking for his help.

"Eh, no!"

"It's okay, Ai."

"But this is my cousin's wedding. Your brother left anyway?"

"Family photos have been sorted out fromitadi. Here I have no more functions, more useful if you can help."

"But..."

"Outside the rain, Ai. Definitely stuck. If you wait for Sammy to pick you up, just keep going home again. You're out on the road."

Ai also has no objection. He looked at Al. Can it trouble the man in front of him?

Throughout his life, Ai always tried to be independent, not to bother others. The only person he often bothered was Sammy. That's because Sammy is like a brother.

And now, can he accept help from Al?

"I'm not good" said Ai, still clean hard resisting.

"Oh, you helped me out. This is my form of gratitude. Want huh?"

Ai also gave up. Finally, he nodded. Not with a heavy heart, of course! Not bad, a hundred thousand dollars does not float for free.

"Who? Ai's going home yet?" Abhimanyu who looks unwilling when Al and Ai say goodbye.

Al had to roll his eyeballs. Her dad is weird. Why is he the one who looks sad when he will be separated from Ai?

"Yes, Om. Mama is waiting for me." Ai looked timidly saying this in front of her grandmother.

"Yes, gohome. Poor your mom's home alone." Rianti looks to nod his head in agreement.

However, Abhimanyu was not focused on that.

"Dianterin is the same as Al, right?" inquiringly.

"Hm." Al just muttered indistinctly to answer the father.

Abhimanyu immediately sumringah once he knew that Al would take Ai. He said, "If so, you can go home. Be careful on the road. Al, you take the car slowly."

"When am I speeding?" cibir Al's.

"I mean slowly let's have a longer time with your boyfriend. Hehe." Abhimanyu.

Al could only shake his head because of his father's tacky behavior. Ai tried to smile as much as she could. The existence of the grandmother always made him awkward.

Then they headed towards the car.

And here they are now.

Being in the same car.

In the middle of an incredible traffic jam.

They had been in the same place for ten minutes, not moving five centimeters.

"Cold huh?" al asked, seeing Ai shiver a little because the weather was cold. Tumben once hell did not leak in Jakarta today.

Ai replied with just a nod and a grin.

Ai chuckled, "Abang wants to leave the house to bring a blanket in the car?"

"That's right! There are some strange comments."

"Yes, it's funny that there's a blanket in the car. Who's thinking try."

"Yes, yeah. I'm the only one who's weird."

Ai giggles. And he looked to the right a little. Al's body facing backwards was very close to him. His heart rate slowly began to irregular. Really, being near Al makes the health condition of his organs into question.

"I'm taro where the hell?!" lamented Al, never found a blanket that he used to put in his car.

"Lost in the place where he stopped brother kali," said Ai.

Al stopped looking. He quickly restored his body position.

"Dad!" He pretended to rebuke. But his face could not help but smile.

"Yeeeeessss?" Ai mocked.

Al cannot be angry. He finally laughed and went on to find another blanket. And finally he found in the back pocket of his own seat.

"Ah, mom. It's." Al also thrust a thin blanket at Ai.

"Thank you, brother." Ai also covered her own shoulders. Ah, warm!

"Is there any point in my blanket?"

Ai laughing.

"But really, how can you have a blanket?" ask Ai curiously.

"I was devastated, Ai. If for example before the way home from the office, I sleep, yes I just sleep in the car. And I can't sleep if there's no blanket."

"Oh that's it."

"Yes, that. So, don't make it stop by." Al chuckled as he drove forward because the front car had started moving.

"But he said the danger of sleeping in a car is still."

"So, I've read it too."

"Don't do it often."

"Why? Worry huh?" Al smiled at Ai. Well, this isn't Al. This is not him at all. Al to the astonishment of about what demon is possessing his body until it becomes this flirty?!

Ai laughed, "Yes dong. I don't want my 'boyfriend' to do anything."

He emphasized the word girlfriend to insinuate Al.

The man's laughter exploded. Until his face flushed like a boiled crab.

"I'm sorry, Ai. For today only. If you're asked tomorrow, say you've broken up."

"Jadian has not, has broken up. I have a very old ex. No three hours."

Al laughed again. Talking to Ai is always fun. For the next, the journey was filled only with their jokes. Until finally, Al's car arrived in front of Ai's house.

Al observes Ai getting ready to get out of his car. There was a slightly unwilling feeling as Ai started to take off her blanket and fold it neatly. Then, the girl also removed her seat belt.

"Nobody's missing, right?" al asked, actually still very unwilling.

"Nothing. I go in first. Thanks, brother, I've done my job."

Al nodded, "See you later, Ai..."

But then, he woke up.

"But if you still want to see me anyway." he added.

Ai chuckles. He did not want to comment on that sentence.

"See you soon, brother." That's the closing sentence today. Then he got out of Al's car.

Al observes the girl running into his house because there is still a little drizzle left.

After arriving at the terrace, Ai turned around and waved at Al.

Al smiled, then started running the car.

Without Ai needing to answer, Al should know that Ai still wants to meet.
