ARAKAS

Chapter 60

Karrel remained silent in place, letting himself think for a while. Ara had told him everything, and Karrel had no idea what he had just heard. Obviously it was a big deal for a teenage girl like Ara. Well, for Ara who is still sitting on the school bench, she might find it difficult to accept the fact that she is not the real child of the family who has lived with her for many years. The family he loved most with all his heart, all he knew was his biological family from birth.

Karrel wanted to hear Ara's reason for leaving the house. That way he can help the girl find a way out and persuade her to go home. But if this is the case, he can't do anything either. He has no right to govern Ara in this matter. From the story of the girl earlier, Karrel knew the girl loved her family very much. But, her father did not want her. Regarding Ravel, Ara said she still felt a dilemma with her brother. He still did not know how to deal with Ravel. But Ara was not crying anymore. Although he told her with a sad face, the girl looked strong.

"Say, am I wrong to go like this?" Ara raised her head to look at Karrel. The man looked at her for quite a while then extended his hand holding Ara's head at a glance. He smiled thinly.

"Now I think you all need time. If they really love you and consider you family, they'll be looking for you." murmured Karrel.

"Let's just say that I will always support you" she continued, hugging Ara. Ara warmly welcomed that embrace. He was happy because Karrel was at his hardest time. He wants their relationship to continue like this, always close and accompany each other. Mutually strengthen. But is it possible for every couple? Ara hesitated for a moment but she immediately threw away her ragu feeling all the way. He did not want the contents in his head to be heavier because of that.

Karrel let go of his embrace.

"Listen, tomorrow you move out of here and live in my apartment. I'm more at ease if you stay at my place." he said. Ara's eyes widened.

"Your apartment? You want us to live together?" ara couldn't believe it. Although the two are currently dating, they are also still school children. It doesn't seem appropriate to live together. What if something unwanted happens? Ara's mind was seeping everywhere. Karrel chuckled then tapped Ara's nose with his index finger.

"What do you think is stupid? I still know the limits. For a while I was going to stay at my parents' house, because my dad and mom were busy working in Bandung so no one was looking after our house here. But, if you want us to live together, we can get married young." Karrel's tease makes Ara even more embarrassed.

"What the hell," Ara patted Karrel's arm in shame. Karrel laughed a little. He would rather see Ara who lives without burdens like this, who is cheerful and always smiles freely.

"Well, I'd better go home now." Karrel stood up from the bed. Automatic Ara stood up. The girl drove Karrel to the front.

"Don't be sad anymore, if you need anything call me" Karrel said before walking away from the building. Not to forget the man kissed Ara's lips at a glance. The girl had met red due to the sudden kiss.

Ara got ready to enter after Karrel disappeared from her sight, but her steps came to a halt for a while. Someone was standing right there. People he knew but not his brother.

"K..kak Tristan?" muttered Ara slowly. He was confused where Tristan knew where he lived.

Tristan was standing there with his hands in his pants pocket. Staring straight at Ara. The man was stunned to see Ara and Karrel kissing earlier. A fleeting kiss that proved the relationship of the two to what extent, because it was a lip kiss. Tristan forced a smile. He knew Ara and the man had a special relationship, but still his heart ached to see them kissing right in front of his eyes.

"How are you doing? I've heard everything from Ravel" Tristan said. He is not a man who likes to talk.

Ara chose to sit on a bench near there. Tristan followed. The place was deserted, there was only one two people passing through the place.

"I'm fine," muttered Ara smiling faintly.

"Any brother Ravel sent Tristan here?" tanyanya. Tristan shakes.

"I just want to know where you live now, and I want to know how you are. Are you sure you want to stay here?" Tristan himself disagreed with Ara living in such a dirty environment. Instead of looking down on this shabby place, he just did not want Ara to get sick because of the dirty environment. After all, the girl had never lived hard before.

"I'll move to a better place tomorrow. Brother Tristan need not worry." said Ara. Tristan nodded. Right, Ara's got Karrel now. There was no way that her boyfriend would let the girl live in a place like this. Good though.

"What about going home? You may not know, but I'm worried about Ravel, she's been fucked up lately. Since you left, she's rarely eaten and isn't focused on her job." Tristan bargained to try to persuade Ara. Ara raised her face looking at the man then shook her face.

"I don't intend to go home, Tristan knows he hates me. Especially now that it is clear that I am not the real daughter of the family." Ara replied in earnest.

Tristan looked at him for a long time. Looks like Ara is very hurtful to her papa as well as Ravel. If this is how he can try? Nor can he keep forcing.

"Or, how about you meet your sister? At least scold him so he eats and does his job well. He'll probably hear you." Tristan said again. Ara was stunned thinking. Is it true that Ravel is so because of her? If you love her, why did you act so cold? The girl still hesitated.

"I'll think about it." she said later.

Tristan smiled at him.

"Come in, I'll leave after seeing you enter." he muttered holding Ara's head at a glance. Ara nodded then stood up from the bench and went inside. Tristan continued to stare at the girl until it completely disappeared from his sight. He sighed heavily, then left the place. He hoped there was hope that Ara would return home again.
