Aretta & Secrets

Aidan's concerns

After the departure of the Gods, we were again busy with the same routine until entering the return hour. As the afternoon grew, we prepared to go home soon.

Aretta and I moved quickly to get things done that weren't in place, after feeling we were together enough to get out together. He immediately said goodbye and started moving away from the store.

I don't know what's wrong with me today, it seems like my level of courage has increased since we met so many times. I called her name and she turned around. I don't know why today I still don't want to part with him.

"Aretta's. Let's go home together. I'll get you home. It's late at night and a lot of it around here" I said. I found no other reason and it would definitely feel very strange if I called her name without saying why I called her. And it seems like it worked out for me to stay with the girl longer, because after that she complied to get in the car and she also showed me her home address.

"Aren't you running?" He asked while glancing towards my clothes. I looked down and realized that I was still wearing running clothes since this morning.

"The plan will run when it reaches home" I replied. I usually run only on weekends. It takes effort also to maintain a body that always looks fit. Thanks to the training that my parents always taught me to do sports, finally get used to it and even now I can form my body muscles even though it is not until the shape is great.

"Ah," that's the only response he gave. It turns out that the distance created is indeed there because it seems like he still looks hesitant if he talks to me a lot. I had no problem and I was happier when he told me.

He stared out the window expressionlessly, occasionally speaking to me for an outsider at the supposed turn.

We arrived in front of the house that looked just as stylish as the house next to it. He lives in a residential area. I immediately turned off my car engine and he immediately jumped out when I was thinking of words to say goodbye.

"Thank you for the ride. Bye."

I still didn't want to part with her and I finally called her back until she turned to me and raised one of her eyebrows when she was about to close the car door.

"You want to go home?" my many. I why exactly? Why do I act like a pubescent teenager.

"No. I want some bad sports. Most run around the complex two rounds."

I was a little surprised to hear that. He did seem trained when running, I often saw him in the gym or during sports hours, but I did not expect him to run when the sun did not even appear to be binary. This girl is brave or what?

"Why run the night anyway?" my grunts softly and quickly took off my seatbelt, "behold! You ran away with me. It's night must be prone. I'll take you home for your mastiin to come home safely. If the story is told, I will not know if you survived until home again.

I went out and immediately got the astonished look that he gave me.

"Are you sure you can come with me?" he said he was a little worried but I knew he was teasing me.

I chuckled and nodded to find he looked underestimating me.

"You want a bet?" about me.

"Ehm... I thought about it first," he said and immediately ran into the house to put down his bag. He came back and started warming up with me.

This shared sports journey really got me to know him more. He was no longer acting awkward and was even more talkative even though he didn't seem to want to tell too much about himself.

He looks more excited at home. Maybe because I invited him home so his attitude was softer than before. As soon as I saw him already on his porch, I immediately gave him the final horn before actually leaving.

I was a little upset when he arrived late the next day which left me unable to chat more before work hours began. I can't even ask trivial things because today we are flooded with many customers. Sunday is the peak where the store will be filled with customers.

The break hour came and I allowed him to eat first as there were still a few customers left here. I decided to eat alternately because today it was not possible for us to eat together. Half an hour later he came back in a happier mood than before. I wanted to ask, but hunger was more dominating and I decided to charge first before asking. But later.

This morning I deliberately skipped my breakfast so that I could arrive at the store early and instead not find him in Daia.

"You're finally home! I'm starving." I said with an exaggerated sad expression as he entered the shop.

"What did you eat?" my many.

"Omelette same cereal. If you don't believe me, you can ask Rafa at Daia cafe." His attitude turned very defensive when I asked him about food and it made it hard for me to know if he was actually eating or not. But the hunger that gnawed at my stomach made me decide to believe.

"Yes I believe" I said, raising the hand of surrender. I walked away as soon as he entered the counter.

I decided to go to Daia cafe. After ordering the burger and potatoes, I sat down and waited. Afterwards I met Davin and we had a little chat.

"Hey bro! Where's that chick yesterday," she said, pointing at my arm and grinning, "she's beautiful."

"Shut up! He's my student" I said.

He looked at me with a pity face. I know what that means. He just wanted to make fun of me with that shitty face of his.

Devin took his place in front of me and I ignored him. My order food has come and I'd rather eat it than listen to him chirping about Aretta.

"By the way after graduating from college yesterday what were you doing?" tanyakanya.

"Gue immediately can offer at SMA while taking care of Oma's help shop. Lo himself?"

My journey is not so much fun and I don't like to talk about the past either. It hurts and I really want to forget. Fortunately Davin was my best friend, he knew the story of my life and made me not have to tell him about it.

"Gue dropped out of college to pursue a career in film. Lo knows for myself that I really want to be an actor, but I don't think I'm a talent in that field. So I decided to take a loan and work hard the night I took acting classes" he explained.
