Can't Be Without Love

Eps 18s

Kiara could not help her heart's sadness, her tears continued to flow without a sound. Marcel kept paying attention. Marcel stopped the car.

"Tell me, what happened? Why do you keep crying?" Marcel held Kiara's hand.

Kiara was shocked, unaware that her car had stopped. He immediately pulled his hand from Marcel's. Removing the rest of her tears.

"Oh yes, brother Gio where has it been for almost a month? I thought Gio's brother didn't want to see me again after knowing that I was Kiara."

"Sorry to make you think so. After that night, I went out of the country in the morning to visit my sister. And there is work there too. I lost my phone when I got there. So I can't call you."

"Do you, I always think of you. Ilove you. From the past until now. This heart is only on you." If Marcel really is.

"I mean Gio's brother?"

"Yes, ever since you avoided me in school. I actually felt like I lost you, and I only realized that I liked you back then. When you got into the same High School as me, I was really happy. I see you from a distance. And we meet again, it turns out you've been avoiding me ever since. I'm sorry I let you down at the time. Until I moved to this city, I kept thinking about you."

"I'm happy to see you again. Maybe we are indeed a match, always met accidentally by fate. I love you, if you accept my love I want to marry you soon." Marcel said seriously.

"If you had said your feelings earlier, brother. Maybe I'll be happy to hear it. Now that I'm different, I don't deserve you, brother. I'm sorry." Kiara muttered while bowing her head. Kiara now regrets her decision to give up on her feelings first. And foolishly, open your heart to Feril. Kiara squeezed her own hand which was on her lap.

"Different? Unbecoming? Meaning how? I know you're a good girl. What's problem?" Marcel doesn't understand.

Kiara can't tell the truth. This is his disgrace, getting into the middle of a couple relationship. Kiara doesn't want to go any further in it. Kiara has to go.

"Sister, I can't tell you, but can I ask you a favor? I don't have anyone to cover for."

"Shield from who?" Marcel is getting confused.

"I can't say. But obviously, I want Gio's brother to take me far away, or anywhere. What matters is that I want to leave. Brother Gio take it easy, I am not a criminal. I just want to avoid it. I beg you." Kiara returned her eyes glazed over.

Marcel draws the conclusion that Kiara is having a big problem. All right, Marcel's giving up. Marcel finally complied with Kiara's will.

Marcel took Kiara to one of his apartments. It was very rarely occupied by Marcel. Because he'd rather go home, and meet family.

"Rest, it looks like you're very tired. It's your room now." Marcel pointed at one of the room doors.

"Then you?"

Marcel smiled slightly, then pointed at the door next to him.

"This is my room. For tonight I'll stay here."

"alright. Thank you brother. Brother Gio already wants to give me a ride." Kiara felt very indebted. Because then he'd be very troublesome for Marcel if he stayed there.

"Same, you don't mind much just yet. Go get some rest now." Marcel is worried about Kiara's condition.

Kiara nodded then went inside the room. He checked his phone, and it turned out his phone was dead. Kiara sighed softly. Maybe this is a God-given way so he can calm down a little.

Kiara fell asleep quickly. Maybe the effects of tired crying so you can quickly sleep. Until tomorrow, Kiara who was used to waking up early, this time she was a little lazy to wake up.

"Oh my goodness, why am I still so sleepy. Even though last night did not sleep late. Hoooaam." Kiara couldn't help her sleepiness. Kiara looked at the new wall clock at 4 a.m. He chose to go back to sleep for a while.

"Kija...Kia..are you okay inside?" Shouted Marcel from outside Kiara's bedroom door.

Tok tok... Marcel kept knocking on the door, anxious that Kiara had not left the room until 9am.

"Kija..Kia, please open the door!!" This time Marcel banged on the door.

Finally the sound of the door banging on Kiara's sleep. Kiara got up and opened the door. Not yet fully aware because he just woke up, Kiara was immediately surprised by Marcel's embrace.

"Thank God you finally came out too. You're okay, right?" Marcel asked in a worried tone.

"Sorry, you worry. I'm so sleepy, so wake up bad luck." Kiara didn't return Marcel's embrace.

Marcel was aware of his behavior, immediately he released his arms embrace on Kiara's body.

"Sorry,." Marcel said awkwardly.

"You clean yourself up, after that breakfast. I've already prepared it on the kitchen table. I also have to go to the office now. If you need anything, call me." Marcel gave his card.

Kiara accepts. Afterwards Marcel left Kiara alone in his apartment. For Kiara's security, Marcel also changed the password to the entrance of his apartment.

After Marcel left, Kiara took a shower. He forgot to leave without bringing anything. While the clothes he was wearing earlier he had soaked to be washed later. In a bathrobes dress, he came out of the bathroom.

He didn't pay much attention last night. It turns out that this is the guest room, can Kiara guess if the closet in her room was not a piece of clothing. But to make sure Kiara opens the closet.

But no doubt, there were some clothes there. And that's a woman's shirt. Kiara had strange thoughts about Marcel. Ahh, Kiara doesn't want to bother, whose shirt it belongs to. Most importantly he could borrow it for today.

After choosing casual clothes, her body size is a bit small so it looks very fitting on Kiara's body. Attached, showing his curves.

"It's nothing, rather than no clothes." Kiara exited the room and headed for the kitchen.

"Did Gio's sister cook by herself? But the kitchen was so clean it didn't seem like Gio's sister was cooking."

Kiara devoured that plate of fried rice. It feels right on Kiara's tongue. Tasty.

After the bad breakfast, Kiara immediately washed the utensils after wearing it. Intended to cook, but when looking at the contents of the refrigerator turned out there were no food ingredients whatsoever. It only contains snacks and soda drinks.

Kiara did not cook.

Being alone, Kiara's mind drifted back to remember her fate. Ah, what a pity he thought.

"Until when should I hide. Exa must be very worried about me, because she suddenly disappeared at the party last night. At least I should tell him I'm okay, and I'm good to Selly."

Kiara's looking for a charger in Marcel's room. Somewhat doubtful, feeling disrespectful. But he continues his purpose. Thankfully, the room was not locked. After finding what she was looking for, Kiara returned to her room to immediately charge her phone.

Not wanting to drag on in a sad mind, Kiara wandered around in this apartment. There is a lounge connected to the balcony. From the balcony Kiara can see the atmosphere of city A from a height. There are many tall buildings that are used as offices.

Kiara went back inside, she went to the kitchen to fetch cold water then settled herself on the sofa of the lounge. Not wanting to get bored just sitting there, Kiara turned on her TV.

....

Exa, back to Kiara's hamlet. Especially if it's not for Kiara. Since arriving to disappear at the party last night, Exa was so worried about her circumstances. But what he was looking for was not at home.

"Ra, where are you? Why did you leave last night without telling me. Are you having any urgent problems?" Exa sighed in frustration inside her car. So I decided to go back to the hospital.

....

Feril tries to call Kiara's number, but is inactive. If there were no urgent meeting, Feril would have already searched Kiara for his house. Feril was worried because Kiara who did not enter work could not be contacted.

"Sir, the client is waiting for us in the meeting room." Gani goes into his room.

"Okay, we're there." Feril got up from his chair and left the room followed by Gani.

....

At lunchtime, Marcel suddenly remembered that in the apartment there was no food. There are only a few snacks. He came home soon and brought food.

Marcel just walked in after entering the password of his apartment. Searching to the corner of the room. Marcel doesn't seem to have Kiara.

"Kiara, ." call Marcel but there's no answer.

After putting food on the kitchen table, Marcel went to Kiara's room, knocked on the door to call her but there was no answer either. Marcel opened the unlocked door.

He forgot that his room was soundproofed so if he didn't scream or get kicked, the occupants of his room wouldn't hear.

Marcel heard a strange noise in the bathroom. He knew that Kiara was inside, but I didn't know what she was doing.

"Kiara, you're inside right?" Marcel knocked on the bathroom door.

Ceklek, the door is opened. Kiara's body looks a bit wet but still uses full clothes. The clothes used are very familiar, ah Marcel remember if it was his sister's clothes who sometimes stayed here before college abroad.
