Can I Love You?

Jealous

"Stop!! I know I can't fall in love with you. But you should do the same. I don't know for sure. How you feel. But what I know for sure. You're starting to like me too. Otherwise, you wouldn't kiss me." Datiyah then left leaving Gama standing in the corridor.

Hearing Datiyah's words, Gama could only stand up and be silent. Before long, he decided to return to Aira's place.

"What's wrong with Tiyah? why are you chasing after her all of a sudden?" asked Aira who was so looking at Gama coming in.

"It's nothing. I just wanted to thank you."

Aira had already felt, that Gama had indeed changed.

Gama is not the teenager he left behind. It was true that he could still feel Gama's concern for him. But, for love, he himself did not know.

He came back to Gama, because he missed him so much. Because he still loves her. But so much time between them is unfilled. Finally, he asked Gama.

"Gama, what are we really? you ready me and I'm ready?"

"why suddenly ask like that?" ask Gama.

"just answer, I don't know who I am in your life. You married Tiyah, but met me as your lover."

"you are of course the woman I love. Am I not the man you love? And it's me and Tiyah, don't you know what I married her." Gama said closer to Aira.

"You know, in my hardest moments, I always remember coming back to you. That whatever happened to me. You will still love me. But, looking at your eyes that were staring at Tiyah, looking at Tiyah who looked angry and you who was chasing after her. I'm...."

"Don't I tell you I love you?" asked Gama while hugging Aira.

Aira shook her head slowly, released Gama's embrace and touched Gama's cheek.

"Me, not the Aira you know. We rarely even spend time together. Knowing ourselves as adults. Which has changed a lot."

"In that case, why don't we start now? I'll listen to all your stories. From the beginning you went dr. Or the reason why you left without saying anything." Gama then pulled up a chair and sat down by the bed.

Aira then shook her head. "No, I don't want to. I just want you here. It doesn't matter what I went through anyway. I just want you to stay in love with me."

Deg, I don't know why Gama feels guilty.

"Gold, Aira. If I'd known you this. I want you to promise me not to get angry?"

Aira scrunched her forehead.

"Don't tell me this is about Tiyah."

"emmm, Tiyah and I are going on a honeymoon and a date for.. "

"whataaaaaa?" Aira screaming.

"Not really, just for publication. Me and Tiyah have been married for a few months. And nothing happened, right? I know, it's not a good time to tell you this."

"except that kiss" Gama's inner.

"well, me, I don't know what to say. How can I allow that. The man I love goes on a honeymoon and dates another woman."

"Aira, you know what I'm doing, to keep my family's good name and yours."

"yes, I know.. Very know. I'm just saying my heart." Aira immediately lay down and covered herself with a blanket.

"Aira, please look at me and listen to what I have to say" Gama said touching Aira's shoulder.

But Aira, upset, brushes off Gama's hand and tells him to leave.

"Better you go home, I need to calm down."

Gama breathed slowly.

Gama returned to the office to work and went home when it was night and found his bedroom empty. He certainly thought that Datiyah was in the library.

After bathing and changing clothes he finally went to check out the library. But, there he did not see Datiyah.

He called Datiyah's number many times but no one answered him.

"Where are you?" Gama sent a short message.

"i'm busy, just take care of Aira. You don't have to worry about me. There's Brother Hendrik with me."

Gama felt very upset, because Datiyah was not home at night. Even though the visiting hours to the orphanage were finished in the afternoon.

He wrote, then deleted the message again. He didn't want to look too worried more than a friend. Because that's what he should have done. He did not want to hurt the feelings of Aira or Datiyah because of his doubtful heart.

"All right then. Be careful." fill Gama's message to Datiyah.

"OK." replied Datiyah briefly.

Gama also entered his study. Every 10 minutes he looks out the window checking if Datiyah has gone home or not.

Exactly at 10 p.m. Datiyah came home laughing happily with Hendrik.

"Makasih yah Kak" said Datiyah holding Hendrik's arm and then entered the house.

Gama who already knew Datiyah came home, hurriedly returned to his room and waited for Datiyah.

Dtaiyah opened the door of the room, seeing Gama who woke up from pretending to sleep.

"Have you come home?" tanya Gama pretended to yawn.

"Yes, I'm home. Take a look at this." Datiyah showed the toys and dolls she hugged with a big smile.

Gama was happy to see Datiyah smiling.

"What's that?" Ask Gama while getting up and sitting on his bed.

"So Brother Hendrik took me to the game. And we play games there. All this time I was really curious, and it turns out it's true, if it makes you addicted and forget time." Datiyah then put all her dolls on her dresser. And arrange it neatly.

"I can buy you a whole store with toys like this." Gama got up and approached Datiyah and took one of her dolls.

"Yes, you can. Honey, isn't that for me?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's obvious that you're going to buy it for Aira, right? Because in your heart there are only Aira Aira and Aira. Even you are willing to marry me and fight your Mama's wishes."

"Why are you even talking about Aira? I'm talking about this again. This doll. You're so happy to get a cheap toy like this. I once bought a handphone for you."

The angry Datiyah then stood up and faced Gama.

"Wahhhh. I'm very grateful. You are a good friend." Datiyah was about to step out, but her hand was pulled by Gama.

"Where are you going? Haven't you spent enough time with Hendrik? and go home with a big smile?"

Gama was happy to see Datiyah smiling, but seeing her smile because another man made her heart hot.

Datiyah who heard Gama's question saw a glimmer of hope because she felt Gama's jealousy. He then stepped forward towards Gama.

"Why? Are you jealous?"
