Carol took David to the bhoot stand. There he had prepared some food for David.
"What are you doing with a lot of food like this?" David doesn't seem to like Carol's treatment, to him this is too much.
"I prepared all of this for you, it's hard for me to bring it here. Don't you want to eat it? accompany me to eat yes, , soon I will also go home. Because I have an event tonight. Plisss" Carol cupped her hands toward David.
David let out a long sigh, he actually wanted to reject Carol's invitation to eat together. But his nature of not being able to see a sad woman made him helpless.
After a little taste of the food prepared by Carol. David gets out of the booth and goes to meet Aileen.
There David saw the woman sitting talking to the staff leader. He decided to approach them.
"Presby??" the leader said when he saw David.
David's gaze was only fixed on Aileen who was trying to avoid the look in her eyes.
Because the air between David and Aileen began to make the leader feel uncomfortable, he finally decided to leave.
"Ee, , sorry. Aileen I still have to set up the tent for tonight. If there was anything to ask later to see me" the man got up from the chair, then he bowed towards David before leaving Aileen.
"Excuse me PresDir"
While David only glanced at the leader when the man started to leave and turned his back.
♡♡♡
"What are you guys talking about??" David pulled the chair so he could sit closer to Aileen.
Aileen's face was flat, she was bowed avoiding David's gaze.
"I'm talking to you, don't you hear me?" His voice sounded very low, while his hand moved gently rubbing Aileen's head.
Aileen let out a long sigh, then she turned her face towards David.
"Why is he acting so ordinary??, , as if he did nothing wrong!!, , wait wait! with whom he is related is none of my business either!!"
David was seen probing towards Aileen's face which was still silent. Then raised both eyebrows towards the woman to make sure the situation.
"Why see me like that?"
"Put your hands away!!, , "Aileen tried to brush off David's hand that was still gently rubbing his head.
David just smiled, he knew the reason why Aileen's attitude had changed back then.
"Is it because of that woman?" david said later.
"Whoever that woman is, it has nothing to do with me!" Aileen turned her gaze the other way, there was a streak of sadness on her face as David continued to look at the woman.
"Listen to me" David grabbed Aileen's hand and held it.
"She's my model, her name is Carol. I've been friends with him since I was in Elementary School" David grabbed Aileen's chin, forcing her to look at him.
"So if I'm on good terms with him, is that natural?"
"Whatever, , it's none of my business!!"
"Why are you really?, , then why are you angry?" David put a sweet smile on his lips.
"Because, , ee, , 'cause I'm tired. I'm gonna take a break!" Aileen pulled both hands and got out of the chair leaving David, walking towards the tent that the staff had prepared for her.
While David only smiled, when he saw Aileen's attitude that looked very worrisome to him.
"She seems to be getting jealous??"
♡♡♡
The next morning they resumed shooting, with the same place but different concepts and costumes.
David was always watching Aileen's body movements, she smiled sweetly when she saw Aileen's face being purposefully close up on the monitor screen. His eyes never changed in any other direction than Aileen's.
♡♡♡
After finishing the shoot, all the staff went back on their way down the hill.
"The road is quite steep, , hold my hand so as not to fall" David said in a soft tone, he tried to make Aileen's heart again melt.
"I can walk on my own, don't need your help!" Aileen continues her journey ahead of David.
"Is he still angry because of yesterday's problems??" muttered.
David shook his head as he continued on his way. He stepped down a fairly steep hill and many sharp root roots poked out from the ground.
"Heart Ai!!, , many sharp roots around you!" his yell.
"Ohhhhhh!!!!" just after David finished saying, Aileen also stumbled to fall. His knees were bleeding from the sharp roots of the tree.
"Aduuuhhhh!!" his moans.
David felt hanging, he immediately ran towards Aileen who had fallen to the ground. Now the forger is grimacing while holding his foot.
"Aileen you okay?"said a staff member who tried to help him.
"Let me help him, you continue the journey" said David, bending his knees and helping Aileen to change her position to sit there.
"Ouch!!" Aileen gritted her teeth to endure the intense pain. He saw that the wound on his leg was slightly opened because it was scratched by the root of the wood.
"E, ,how is this?, , I can't walk" Aileen groaned, her eyes watering with pain.
"Don't cry, there I am" David wiped Aileen's tears with his hand.
"PresDir, , the sky is getting dark, soon it will rain. We have to get Aileen perdi from here" the leader said
"You all come down first, I'll take care of Aileen"
"But PresDir?" The leader looked very worried.
"You guys first, if it rains and I haven't shown up yet. Send an officer to look for me!, & here" David handed Aileen's backpack to the leader.
"Please bring the bag. I'll carry Aileen"
"Both PresDir" the leader and others finally continued the journey. They walk fast to catch up with time.
David squatted down then he told Aileen to go up on his back.
"Well, hold on tight" David said.
They are far behind because of course David will be a little slow when it comes to holding Aileen.
Before long, they were separated from the person in front of them.
David still remembered the road to his home.
"If you're tired, can we take a break?" Aileen felt uneasy when she saw David a little exhausted while carrying himself.
"Don't mind me, the most important thing is that your dishes should be cleaned quickly. We need to get to the bottom quickly before it rains"
Aileen watched over David's visibly exhausted face, helping the man wipe the sweat drenching his temples with a t-shirt covering his arm.
David looked to the side to see Aileen's condition.
"Thank you" David smiled.
"I should be the one to say thank you, sorry to bother you" Aileen further tightened her arms that were coiled around David's neck
"It's not free, 'you have to pay for it" David said later, showing off his mischievous smile.
"I expected it, surely none of this is free!!, , "
The journey is still far away, the sky is getting darker until finally the rain fell and flushed their bodies.
David sped up his pace, but he tried to be careful because the path would be very slippery when exposed to rainwater.
The rain is getting heavier, making visibility even more limited. David's eyes looked at some houses. He decided to rest there while waiting for the rain to stop.
