Cidro (Between Love And Wounds)

Chapter 61

Tian brought Citra to a cafe not far from where she lived. During the trip, Citra was just silent. He didn't make any sound.

Tian tried to touch Citra's fingers. But quickly, Citra pulled her hand.

"Focus on driving" he said.

Tian could only nod. He refocused on driving. Before long, the car they were riding in seemed to enter a cafe that was famous for its good place and instagramable.

"We're going down yuk!" bring Tian.

Without speaking, Citra opened the car door and exited from the inside. Tian did the same with Citra.

While walking into the cafe, Tian wanted to hold Citra's hand. But quickly Citra pulled her hand. He did not seem to want to be touched by Tian.

"What do you want to order?" tian asked as the two of them were already inside the cafe.

"Whatever!" answer Short imagery.

Tian let out a long breath. Then he decided to order two glasses of cold drinks and two snacks.

"Please wait, brother!" said a waiter.

Tian nodded with a smile. Then the waiter went inside to make Tian's order.

"You why the hell? From yesterday you were cuekin I'm like gini? I'm wrong with you?" ask Tian.

Silent image does not answer. He turned his face the other way. There was not a smile that Tian saw every day.

"I'm sorry if there's something wrong with you" Tian said.

The image is still silent. He still did not open his mouth to make a sound.

"Git!" call Tian. His hand grabbed Citra's fingers and grasped them tightly. The image tried to pull his hand. But Tian grasped it tightly.

"I'm sorry if there's something wrong with you" he repeated.

The image did not reply to Tian's words. He just looked at Tian with a hard look to interpret.

"I'm sorry if my attitude is less pleasing to your heart. I'm sorry...."

"Any hug in the teacher's room and continue in the school garden?" cut Quick image. He could no longer bear to keep everything.

Tian was in disbelief. Where does Citra know everything. From where he knew the incident that had made him uncomfortable.

"You don't need to be clear anymore. I already know everything. I know your body is for me. But your heart and love are only for Ms. Luna, aren't you?" Imagra said as he flicked his hand until it slipped out of Tian's grasp.

Tian shook his head. "Not Cit. You misunderstood. I'm the same Luna has nothing to do with it. I'm the same as him just really, really" Tian explained.

The image revealed a slanted smile upon hearing Tian's explanation.

"Darling, look at me! I never lied to you. I never had the intention to take you. I love you Citra!" he continued..

The image brushed off Tian's hand that was about to touch his face. His chest suddenly felt tight again the events of yesterday and two days ago.

"Who believes Sir? Who believes there is nothing between you and your co-workers?"

"I'm serious Cit. I'm the same Luna has nothing to do with her other than her coworkers. Our relationship is just that it's nothing more." Tian was still trying to explain it to Citra.

The image smiled obliquely. He could not believe the words of the man in front of him. He can't trust her anymore.

"I swear by anything. I have nothing to do with Luna. I'm the same he's just a friend no more than that" he said again.

"I never lied to you. I'm honest with you. I just love you. And it's just you in my heart" he continued.

The image was slightly touched by Tian's speech. Tian had never lied to her. He was always honest with her. He never tried to lie to himself.

"Do you believe me, honey?" tian.

The image looks into the eyes of the lover. He was looking for a lie there. But there was no lie in his eyes. There is only sincerity and honesty.

Tian rousing fingers Citra again. He clasped the fingers tightly and kissed them with his message.

"I love you. Now and then. I won't eat you forever" he said.

The image blushed upon seeing Tian's sweet treatment of her. His heart beat faster when he heard the expression of love from him.

"Please Brother! Happy enjoying!" said the waiter.

"Goodoo, you" replied Tian.

Tian was still tightly grasping Citra's fingers as he said that.

"Have you been to this cafe a lot?" ask Citra. His voice did not sound as cold as before.

"Not really. I used to come here with Marta. But since breaking up I've never been here again" he explained.

"Ooh!" The image rounded his lips while enjoying his cold drink.

"Pak Tian's ex-girlfriend's name is Marta?" ask the image again.

"Yes. We used to be engaged and almost married" he said.

"But because of something, our marriage was canceled. And I decided not to have any more contact with him" he continued.

Tian kept telling me about the former. Citra listened to him carefully. There was no jealousy when Tian told him about his former lover.

"You're not angry, am I telling you about Marta?" ask Tian.

"Why angry?"

"Who knows if you're feeling jealous or something."

"He's an ex, right? Not still his girlfriend, is he?" citra.

"Yes Dear. He is now an ex. It's the past. And you are my future" Tian said.

Citra's face reddened upon hearing Tian's remark.

"I went to the toilet, yes" Citra said.

Citra got up from her seat and walked towards the toilet at the end of the cafe hall. The image immediately completed his wishes while in the toilet. When he finished, he immediately returned to his desk.

That was when he again saw something that was very disturbing to him. Something that made him angry and upset.

...****************...

Day change day. Without feeling the test of class increase is in sight. Anne, Citra, Maria, Arga, and Azwan took the time to study together. Like today, they studied together in Anne's backyard.

"Arga, don't date dong. We'll learn again." Tegur Maria who for the last time saw Arga was friendly.

"Sirik aja lo Mar. Tell me you're jealous of us!" sahut Arga's.

"Ye spielain too. Why am I jealous of you too? We will learn again. Should be focused dong," said Maria did not want to lose.

"Yes, you guys. Not at school. Not at home, just stick to stamps," Azwan said.

"Udah... already! How about a fight anyway?" citra mediates.

"Keep learning. I want to go out, " continued Citra.

"Where are you going?" ask Anne.

"To the minimarket front. Want to buy drinks with snacks," he replied.

"Follow dong!" said Maria.

"I'm also going with dong" Azwan said.

The image smiled and nodded. Mary and Azwan rose from their seats. They followed Citra's steps away from the place.

"You guys don't fuck around. Watch out for anything!" azwan.

Anne and Arga compactly raise their thumbs. They assured me nothing would happen as long as the others weren't in place.

Half an hour passed, Maria, Citra, and Azwan returned from the minimarket. They immediately went inside and returned to the backyard.

"you guys? What are you guys doing?"
