DANGEROUS LOVE'S
Istanbul - New York University
Tonight is the night of the release of all students and students of International Senior High School of Istanbul. The night that the students were waiting for after a few days ago they were declared graduated by the school. All the students, parents and teachers filled the auditorium.
After passing this day, they will continue the journey to climb every future they dream of. One by one all the students of class XII have gone up on stage, and the principal gives graduation charter to his students. There was applause from the people below the stage. The faces of the students looked extremely excited, but behind their excitement was a pair of eyes that were looking for the figure of someone he was waiting for his arrival. Those pair of eyes swept over every corner of the invited guests seating that was below the stage. He did not see the person he expected to come from.
The entire series of events had been completed, one by one the students stepped off the stage. Hazal was wearing a black Toga Graduation robe, with her brown hair she had bun back covered by her graduation hat. His hand held tightly to his brown graduation charter. Slowly he walked up to the wide stairs along the sole of his feet.
Five steps down, Hazal is already under the stage. The young girl was walking on the red carpet that divides the auditorium. In the crowd, Hazal is looking for her family.
"Hazal." said Meral who waved at her daughter. Soon the girl walked over to her foster mother. As soon as she arrived near her mother and foster father, the girl looked for other members of her family.
"Mother, did Japheth not come?" hazal asked, holding his foster mother's hand.
"Yes.he did not return to Istanbul. Suddenly his flight was canceled, because he was having activities on the campus." explained Meral.
"Dad already booked a spot at a Japanese restaurant that just opened today. Let's go there now." take the Emir to his family.
There was a stroke of sadness on Hazal's pretty face when her adoptive mother said that. The three members of the Aksal family immediately set their feet toward the auditorium exit.
Suddenly a voice called out to Hazal's name and stopped their footsteps. It turned out that Ozcan was already standing behind Hazal, and holding the girl's arm.
"Wait for Hazal, can we talk for a second?"
"We'll be waiting for you in the car, baby. Take a minute for your friend" the Emir told Hazal.
Hazal's adoptive parents leave Hazal and Ozcan in the auditorium. After seeing that her parents are gone, Hazal opens a conversation with her schoolmate.
"What do you want to talk about, Ozcan?"
"Can we talk in that corner?" ozcan said, pointing to the left of the auditorium, about two meters from where they were standing. Hazal agrees to Ozcan's invitation, and the two of them sit on a staircase connecting the upper and lower floors of the auditorium. Not many people passed by there, so they could freely speak without the interference of others.
"What do you want to talk about?" again Hazal repeated the same question.
"Hazal, I just wanted to ask you the answer to my question a few days ago. Do you remember?"
This Ozcan friend seemed to be sighing deeply, what answer would he say to his friend. To be honest, he hasn't thought about the answer to the question Ozcan asked him when they were both in the car. Suddenly Ozcan holds Hazal's hand.
"Tell me whatever's in your heart" Ozcan said with a wistful look in his eyes.
"Ozcan. I'm sorry I can't be your lover. I'm sorry." said Hazal, who pulled her hand from Ozcan's.
"But why, Hazal? Don't you have feelings for me? You're very nice to me."
"Maybe you misrepresented my kindness, until recently I only regarded you as a friend, nothing more, Ozcan."
"Is that the only reason? Or is there someone in your heart you love?" Ozcan tries to figure out the reason for Hazal's refusal.
"I'm sorry, Ozcan. Maybe you're right there's someone in my heart, but for now, I just want to focus on my studies first. Maybe it's better if we just be friends."
"Did you refuse me, because I was too presumptuous to have kissed you back then?"
"Already, Ozcan. I don't want to talk about it."
"I'm sorry Hazal." Ozcan said as he reached out to Hazal. Then Hazal returned Ozcan's hand and forgave his friend. The two agreed to only make friends forever. Ozcan says goodbye to Hazal.
"Take care of yourself Ozcan, may you find a girl who truly loves you sincerely." Hazal smiled and held Ozcan's shoulder.
After saying that, Hazal stood up from her seat. When he was about to step up, he saw the figure of a man he knew wearing a dark blue shirt suit with a short-sleeved slim fit shape, which showed his athletic body. The man was carrying a bouquet of red roses. The man she's been waiting for since.
"Japheth" said Hazal, surprised by his presence, and quickly ran to Japheth and hugged his foster brother. Japheth also returned Hazal's embrace. Hazal's body tightly embraced, because he also missed his adoptive sister very much.
"Didn't you want me to come?" ask Japheth with a serious face.
"I've been waiting for you since." - Hazal, but actually her heart was very flowery seeing Japheth in front of her.
Hearing Hazal's words, Japheth laughed. This time he managed to give a surprise to Hazal. He handed the bouquet of roses to Hazal. "Congratulations on your graduation" Japheth said.
Hazal receives a bouquet of roses from Japheth, then holds her bouquet of roses and her graduation charter in her left hand. While his right hand held Japheth's arm, and invited him to immediately get out because their parents had been waiting in the car.
Without them knowing it, Ozcan saw it. He looked at the expressions on the faces of the two of them who looked so happy. There was a feeling of jealousy seeing their familiarity. Although Ozcan was as knowledgeable as they were, they were brother and sister, but their gazes were like lovers in love. With a heavy heart, Ozcan let go of Hazal with Japheth.
*****
Two weeks later....
All four members of the Aksal family are already in New York. They are currently attending the evening of the graduation of Japheth, their only son.
Today Japheth and several other students receive a toga and graduation charter from the rector of Columbia University. Japheth and his three friends have completed their studies in International Bussines Management.
Seen on the faces of Japheth's parents pride and joy in their hearts. Children who have been "discarded" by them have made them proud by being one of the best graduates at Columbia University.
Wearing a robe and graduation hat, Japheth walked gallantly to his family. His father and mother embraced Japheth and congratulated him. Then it was Hazal's turn to wear a black covered dress, embrace Japheth and congratulate him. Not to forget the brown-haired girl also gave a gift in the form of a rubber teddy bear that uses a robe and graduation hat.
The four of them did a photo session provided by the campus committee. Not forgetting that Japheth asked for a photo with Hazal, the man wrapped his hands around Hazal's waist.
Without them noticing, there was a pair of eyes belonging to Selina who noticed Japheth's attitude towards Hazal.
"Who's the girl? Is he Japheth's new lover?"
Suddenly someone patted Selina on the shoulder.
"See bro... It looks like someone is jealous to see his former lover has got a new one." exclaimed David to his two friends. It was David's hand that had patted his shoulder. Jason, Lee and David were standing next to Selina.
"Do you know who the girl who was with Japheth was?" selina asked the three men.
"What are we gonna tell her, bro?" lee asked his two friends. "Forget Japheth, you better be with me." Lee continued his words and was followed by the laughter of his other two friends.
"Fuck you Lee." cried Selina who pushed Lee's body backwards.
"Come on Selina, you don't sell expensive!" exclaim David. Hearing that, Selina quickly stepped away leaving the three men behind.
The three men laughed out loud at Selina's attitude. Since breaking up from Japheth, the girl has always troubled them with questions surrounding Japheth. Selina is always looking for the latest information about Japheth especially the thing about Japheth's new lover. But all this time, the three friends of Japheth always kept their mouths shut to Selina.
