Aretta & Secrets

Go home

"Stop it!" as if trying to stop the mulled Gio looked desperate. I'm grateful that he has changed and loved me, but it's not his fault and I don't want him to.

"Gue is fine!Lookie! Gye never blamed you for everything that happened. I am thankful that this time I helped. So, we can't talk about that anymore. I'm just talking about it and again, I'm hungry."

I said that while smiling lightly. Now the weight on my shoulders has been lifted and there is no more heavy lifting. And it seems that my sentence had managed to improve the situation because the atmosphere of the room was warmed up again. Gio wiped his eyes and calmed down after I explained the matter.

"Okay. If so, what would my dear sister eat?" He grinned and stood up.

I asked Gio to go buy me food at Daia cafe. I don't know why I started to miss the food at that place after two weeks of being busy trying to complete a new home renovation.

And one more. I obviously did not obey Aidan because after that, I slowly tried to get out of bed while ignoring the pain. I pressed my feet against the floor and started walking even though I was still staggered into the kitchen. Although it was difficult in the end I managed to support my body to continue walking.

Just by walking like this I felt that I could be more independent. I can also take a drink for myself and can go to the toilet without having anyone waiting for me outside the door. I could walk to Aidan's study or sit on the big couch he put there. My eyes scanned the room. The documents that were once scattered are no longer left. They may have been filed or cleared if not needed. I could see the floor covered in carpet.

Satisfied with the stare, I turned to grab the guitar behind the door I had played before. I started picking notes and I wasn't quite sure what song I was playing. It's just that it feels good when I can strum the guitar back.

I was swept away on my own in my world thanks to Aidan's guitar that I played. Maybe I was so focused on my game that I didn't hear the door open and close again, and the sound of footsteps walking up to the floor.

"I didn't give you a message that you should rest. And that break I mean sleeping in bed." Aidan surprised me by standing by the door. The man gripped while looking at me fixedly.

"And I'm also tired of Mulu's sleep," I always say. I'm sick, only if I'm told to sleep constantly I'm bored.

Aidan shook his head, the man approached, "What do you want," I cried softly.

"Look at me" he said before putting his arms under my knees and shoulders and scooping my body for him to carry. I froze when I realized that my face was stuck to his chest. His breath hit my face as he led me back to my room.

I want to fight it's just that our strength is very different. All I could do was obey when he put me back on his bed gently. He tried not to hurt me.

I snorted and Aidan just chuckled while releasing his hand. He walked to the other side of the bed and laid his body there as well. His behavior made my body bounce a little and I screamed as the pain spread.

"Sorrys. Sorry Aretta." He said cynically and made me take more and more to him. Aidan.

Aidan only chuckled and sidelined his body to face me, "Why is the response so? You need to rest early to get well quickly. I'll wake up if Gio comes." He asked me while patting the empty pillow I had used.

It made me protest her hard. I've been sleeping a lot and have started overdosing because I closed my eyes too long. It was my intention, but it turned out that arguing with Aidan made me sleepy. I closed my eyes for a moment and began to fall asleep. It's just that I'm not really fast asleep. I was in the phase between being sober and not but still being able to know what was going on in the real world.

My soul wants to wake up but my body refuses. That's why when Aidan whispered I could understand.

"I feel I'm used to it." I don't know why the ambiguous words even I understand.

I'm staying at Aidan's house again. This time he really paid attention to me so that I no longer wandered around like before. I also got a visit from Rendi and Rafa. Don't ask how they know where I am now because the three of them seem familiar. Rafa told me that he asked Aidan who had visited Daus without me and that the man immediately told me about my condition and where I live now. Fortunately, he didn't tell me about what happened to me.

At first they were both confused when they were taken to Aidan's house. I, too, acted the same when I was in their position. Who is not confused when they know your friends live with your own teacher. That's not a good thing to emulate.

They spend a lot of time here. I am grateful that this time I have a friend who will come to me when I am sick.

Two days and two nights I stayed at Aidan's house and two more days of school holidays were over. I decided to go home because it was time. After all, my condition has also been better thanks to Aidan's protection. It was finally time to stay in a new home.

Gio's coming to get you. He also brought my things to the car because he thought I was still in a weak condition and not strong enough to carry them. Gio went first to the parking lot and now it's just me and Aidan.

Whether I got where that courage came from, I suddenly came forward to hug Aidan. I can't believe that if he also returned my embrace is not less tight. I could feel the weight of his hand on my back. I liked this, but unfortunately I had to let go of our embrace immediately before Gio came. Gio still did not realize that this man was my teacher and I felt a little safe because of that.

"Thank you" I said. That speech was not only because he was left to stay in his house, but also because he had been willing to take care of me all night in my worst condition.

Aidan nodded and smiled sadly. I chuckled at the action myself. Doesn't fit.

"See you on Monday tomorrow" I said, trying to melt the mood.

Gio came back and said goodbye to take me home. I waved at Aidan as Gio's car slowly moved away. It was sad when in two days I could meet the man.
