DRIZZLE IN THE EYES OF THE HEART

eps. 17

CHAPTER 5

HEART CRACKED

Tell me if I reveal it, what will this heart get from it?

This time I only heard music hoping that with this it could slightly reduce the turmoil that happened yesterday was completely heartbreaking. I don't know why Al is sometimes nice and sometimes very rude to me.

I peeked at the edge of the campus road waiting for Al, when these eyes caught his figure I immediately spread my sweetest smile to him. But in return, he deflected my smile by throwing his face away. Al disappointed me again. I don't know what makes me want to keep him.

"This heart is slowly becoming ashes because the fire of anger within myself is no longer able to hold me back."

My footsteps produced a rhythm in the corridor plus my eyes were straight but unconscious until I hit a giant pole and that embarrassed me, because I was laughed at by those who could only insult rather than help. With irregular strides I left those who laughed at me.

"Damn it, why can I not see such a big pole, what's wrong with me today? I asked for a ketus."

"Amel! I want to talk to you with four eyes, said Al to my surprise."

With great joy I replied to Al. "You wanna talk? Go ahead, I said."

"Would you not help me tidy up the library? Ask Al."

"I thought you wanted to apologize, but it turned out that my guess was wrong. But it's okay, I'll help you, I said."

"Actually I also feel the same way with you, I also feel very guilty, I've become a man who can only make you sad and cry. I can't even say sorry in front of you. If you knew that I would go far from your side for the sake of my education, then I would do all this so that you would get used to it without me one day, and why do you keep maintaining your love for me that disappoints you so much, murmured Al inwardly."

Al walked with his own eyes, while I walked far ahead of Al. My habit of walking with empty eyes again makes me wretched but not more sadistic than yesterday because here there is only me and him.

I climbed up the stairs leaning against the library closet to store the books lying on the floor. And by accident my right leg slipped and fell but my body did not fall to the floor because Al was running towards me, I stared at one pair of eyes that looked different than usual.

"What's wrong with her? I asked inwardly."

Al laughed at me as he helped me stand up and asked me to be more careful.

"It seems that you are not sincerely helping me, I said as I continued my work."

Al did not reply to my words again, I again thought that it was possible that Al was still angry with me over the events that had passed so many days. But I could not continue my words and there was a roaring scream in my ear. I turned my body around and saw Al fall to the floor with blood on his forehead.

With a feeling of panic I ran up to him, the unconscious him made me worry even more. Without thinking I tried to lift Al's body, but I couldn't and I was lucky because dion and kelly passed in front of the library. I also called out to them in a loud voice. They saw me and saw Al's head on my lap. We're taking Al's body to the UKS.

I walked around the UKS waiting for Al to wake up. Not long Al was completely unconscious.

"Amel, said Al."

"No, you better go and leave me with kelly and dion, said Al."

I was upset and left the three of them, a drizzle came to complete my wounded heart.

"Why did you throw out the amel, she loved you so much and accepted all the pain you gave her, she was the best girl I ever made a friend to, Kely said."

"In fact, I dare not see his reaction if I know the truth that happened to me, nor am I strong if he shows me his tears again, said Al."

"What do you mean, Al, what happened to you? Ask dion."

"I will continue my education in Germany and at the same time be betrothed by the daughter of the greatest businessman there and maybe I will be married to a sherien, I do not love him but I love Amel, he said, but I had no other choice, said Al."

"If it's true, then what's the fate of the woman who's been waiting for you to say sorry and I'm sure she'll forgive you" Kely said."

"That's a tough choice Al, I understand your situation, but what Kely said is also true."

After a long conversation they had just had, they saw me sitting on the front floor of the UKS waiting for them. I grimaced in pain with a scratch wound from a fall.

"Amel, what happened to your knees and elbows? Ask al?"

"Tumben you're just like me, you're usually angry, and you have to be careful, I said in a mocking tone."

"Amel let's go to the UKS let your wounds be treated first, said Kely."

"It's true that there's no infection, ' said Dion."

"I want to go home now, let's go home, ' I said."

"Sorry mel I can't, because today I still have class, Kely said."

"Then I go home first, I said."

"Emm amel I'll take you home, said Al."

"All right, I said briefly."

When hope is lost, the heart will try to hold on for my love for it.
