Emotion Taster
Arc 2 Banquet: Chapter 19 - Since When
Rather than waiting together with Septian and Imarine here, an atmosphere would be more able to form if I were to escort them.
I walked down the hall, circled the hall, and finally reached the western part of the school. My position is in the west hall next to the hall. From here, my visibility was wide enough to observe the various students coming.
Ah .. there is finally.
And sure enough, I could see Amalia and Fany walking together towards approaching me to get to where the unused building is. They used the main line in the front hallway of the first-class building towards the hall. They walked in tandem, exactly looking like friends who encourage each other.
“You're ready Fany?” ask me when they're right in front of me.
“Un ...,” he replied while nodding gently.
I walked back, turned around and guided them to where Septian and Imarine were waiting.
Hmn ....
Fany's emotional wave didn't feel so bad. The sour taste smells of his typical medicine indeed felt. But ....
“...”
At least now he was not afraid of facing Septian later.
We finally arrived, the sightings of Septian and Imarine were already visible to the two girls behind me. Our positions were all in a small field in front of an unused building with a bakun tree that shaded.
“...”
Septian and Imarine were originally on the terrace of an unused building, Imarine was reciting and giving some advice on his notes. But, as soon as they saw me, their position changed.
As a new pressure appeared, stood up in a slightly sprightly position and then walked over to me.
“...”
“...”
Me and Septian looked at each other, he who was right in front of me this time waiting for further action from me.
“Ian ... this time do not fail.”
My words that stepped to the side left Amalia and Fany there. An act that indirectly allows both parties to start talking.
“...”
My body that took a few steps to the side made Septian's gaze be treated to Fany's presence. Since the girl was still far enough away to communicate with, Septian took two steps closer.
“Yo-yo ... Fany,” Septian greetings that nervously put a hand behind his head.
I felt the atmosphere around the increasingly heavy, due to their shame, I who saw also became tense.
“Yo-yo too,” replied Fany who was nervous.
Eh-eh .. is that a greeting that can be answered like that?
“Are you okay taken to a place like gini .. I mean rest time you will not be exhausted?” tanya Septian who started looking for an introductory topic.
“U-un ...,” replied Fany slightly nodding. “Nothing ... I can actually still eat later after this.”
“A-ah .. true ... then we have to clear this quickly before the break runs out.”
“...”
“...”
“...”
Conversations are interrupted, they become awkward with each other like a couple who run out of ideas looking for a topic of conversation.
It seems that his choice did not produce good results. He shouldn't have had useless conversations just now. It only made the situation even more difficult for him to reveal his true heart.
“...”
“...”
They were facing each other, but their eyes turned away from each other trying not to meet directly. Leaving aside with Fany, Septian's reaction this time was beyond my expectations. I guess this is going to be more chaotic and dominated by Septian as usual.
Hm?
Amalia starts whispering something to Fany, the girl is still attached to each other's arms to accompany Fany facing Septian. But, the man was unconscious, not caring about Amalia who seemed to be because Amalia used her magic power.
“Fa-Fany ..” Septian stammered, trying to stare at Fany but ended by turning his eyes to the far view, “actually ..
“Septian, sorry!”
Hng!?
“Tu-wait, why are you the one apologizing?” septian asked which made a puzzled face.
“Sorry .. All this time I've been selfish. In fact, you just like me, you have dared to say directly the same to me .., but I .. I instead avoid you and procrastinate answers make you wait. In fact, if I have the courage, I should be able to talk directly to you.”
Fany said it in a soft voice. Several times his intonation got out of control due to the heavy pressure that made him vibrate. I can feel it, the adrenaline is so spurred by a nervousness and doubt of the heart. So pictured even though I don't use emotion detection.
“...”
Septian was stunned to see the figure of Fany who ventured to say this.
“Eng-not, Fany. You are not wrong!”
However, he finally regained his senses and wanted to reciprocate his feelings just now.
“Egois it's me .. I always force you to make it close to me, make you forced to enter in awkward conditions with friends. But .., in the end I just take refuge from the word ‘suka’, assume everything I do is right for the sake of pursuing my own obsession.”
Septian also replied with a similar feeling. Her nervousness is not inferior to Fany, she wants to appreciate what Fany decided by gathering her courage and determination.
“... Ka-Kaivan was right .. I was selfish. At that time I did not see how you feel, acting cool by chasing you non-stop. Though, of all people, I am the one who understands that you are still afraid of men.”
“No, I was wrong .. I never said it to you. I just want to make the atmosphere and let you get me. I never said what my heart was wrong. You don't know from the beginning, if only I told you, you probably wouldn't be like that.”
“I didn't know it was Fany ..” replied Septian while shaking slightly. “I'm not Kaivan .. I'm not a sensitive man who can understand your feelings now. Although I know, my actions at that time may not change ...”
Septian this time was humble, his regret was so great that he undoed his intention to defend himself.
“Yah .. right, you are not Kaivan,” said Fany with a slightly lowered face. “You are you .. You are Septian .. it is true you are not cool and not as good as Kaivan. But, you have something that only you have. Your persistence and struggle .. At that time you just want to protect what you have.”
“Fany ..?”
This conversation went well and continued towards the direction where they would get satisfaction. But .., somehow I feel something is awkward.
“Septian .. do you want to try again?”
“One more time?”
“About everything you did before.”
“...”
“...”
The atmosphere is getting heavier. I feel like this is even going too well from what I expected.
“Fa-Fany .. I like you ... You want to be my girlfriend?”
Eh-Eh!?
Wait-wait ... why!?
“U-un ...” Fany nodded small.
“...”
“...”
Me, Septian, and even Imarine beside me had a moment of disconnection. Trying to digest what happened.
“Eh? Just .... just now that means ‘iya’? Right, ‘kan? I'm not wrong?” septian asked in a slight panic. “Can you repeat once again?”
“E-no, I can repeat again ...”
“...”
Fany's second answer is neutral not to repeat the answer. But, if sorted following the direction of the conversation and the atmosphere around. That all leads to the answer ‘iya’.
What is this ... what is this ...?
I can't even help feeling shocked by what I'm seeing right now.
Since when has Fany been this aggressive? If indeed they love each other .. then what have I been doing in circles all this time?
