Endless Taste

. Avril touched and covered her cheeks that were beginning to feel hot.

"What are you doing, Amel." Alvi snapped and walked over, and grabbed Avril's face. Avril brushed Alvi's hand.

"Hmppphh. In front of me, as if you rejected Alvi, but behind me, you were comfortable hugging Alvi. Do you still not know? Alvi it belongs-"

"I'm not yours. Keep it and remember it. I'm sick of hearing that I'm Amel's." Alvi said so coldly.

"Alvi.. you.." said Amel. Amel stared intently at Avril. "I really didn't expect Avril. You're a cheap woman." Amel was full of emotion.

Compared to the slap earlier, it might hurt these words even more. Avril flinched, and ran out of the room.

"Avril..." Alvi followed and kept calling Avril.

But because Avril lost speed, Alvi managed to grab Avril's hand.

"Let Go Alvi. I don't want to see you again." It's already Avril's tears. "Never see me again Alvi." Avril continued to throw Alvi's hand rough.

"Avril" but Avril quickly closed the elevator door.

Alvi is then busy looking for an empty elevator, but is not found.

Without a second thought Alvi intended to pass the emergency stairs, but only a few steps clanking elevator sign there that reached the floor. Alvi quickly returned and entered the elevator. The employee who saw him bowed his head in a salute sign.

After making sure the elevator door was closed, the employees looked at each other in surprise to see the president who was in a hurry.

Downstairs, the elevator door opened. Alvi didn't find Avril. Alvi quickly ran towards the outside of the building. Alvi sees Avril's car driving away from his company area.

"Dam." He ran towards the car.

In the car, Alvi called someone.

"Ray replace me take care of the company. Sorry but this is so precarious. Can you?" Alvi said gasping.

"Is the master running?" Ask Ray from the room.

"Can you Ray? I'm chasing Avril."

"Ba-good sir. I'll be right to the company." Ray. Then Alvi hung up. Now Avril's car began to look because he drove the car so fast.

Alvi overtakes and stops right in front of Avril's car.

Looking at Avril's car that wanted to turn and pass her, Alvi quickly got down and stood blocking the road. Avril firmly stepped on the brake that made her head hit the steering wheel.

Alvi ran over and called out to Avril from outside. Avril returned to her car quickly.

"Dam. I'm being fooled." Umpat Alvi ruffled his hair.

Alvi ran back and entered the car. Driving a car is no less fast than Avril.

Arriving home, Avril immediately entered and locked herself in the room. The father, who realized something was wrong with his daughter, approached Avril's room and knocked on the door, but there was no answer.

"Avril... Are you okay?"

Silence, and make you worry. Not usually Avril did not answer the father's statement.

Dad looked down and found Alvi who was running calling Avril.

"Did something happen to Avril?" Ask my dad from above.

"Just misunderstood dad. And I'm trying to explain to her." Reply Alvi looked up.

"What happened to Alvi?"

"Let me tell you in detail to dad. But right now I want to talk to Avril." Alvi ran up the stairs.

"Avril. I'm worried about you." He knocked on the door a few times.

But still no answer.

"At least answer me, if you don't want to go out, it's okay. But don't make me nervous like this." Shouting father. But Avril did not answer.

"Avril. I want to talk." Shouted Alvi.

"Go Alvi. I don't want to see you again." Faint yet still heard.

"Avril.don't listen to what Amel says." Shouted Alvi again.

"I said go.." said Avril in between sobs.

I looked up and looked at Alvi.

"What do you mean Alvi?"

"Ahhh.. It seems like Avril really doesn't want to see me dad." Alvi looked at my father.

"Explain what's happening now. So I can figure out what made Avril lock herself up like this."

Alvi let out a long sigh for a moment before explaining the matter to father.

"Avril followed me to the company. But just then, Amel suddenly came and Avril tried to explain what she saw not as she thought, but... Amel slaps and blames Avril. And then say a no-no to Avril until Avril acts like this." Alvi.

"What did you do to Avril?" Dad looked hard at Alvi.

"There is no father. I just hugged her." Answer plain alvi.

Dad pulls Alvi's ear making Alvi grimace in pain.

"You dare hug my son? You are not married."

"Adududuh I'm sorry dad. I just don't want Avril to leave." Alvi answered holding the hand of the father who was still pulling his ear.

"And now, how can Avril not confine herself in the room?" Ask dad to let go of his hand.

"What about Galih's father."

"They are busy right now."

"Nadia?"

"Ahh you're right. Maybe Nadia can."

"But I have father's plan."

"What?"

Alvi whispered to father, and father just nodded in response.

"Avril. if you don't come out, then I'll break the door open." Without thinking for a long time, Alvi quickly crashed herself hard on the door.

From the inside, Avril began to feel unbearable, if it was the father who broke down the door.

Avril walked up and unlocked, then pulled the door open. Alvi, unaware that the door was unlocked, fell down just below Avril.

His nose was bleeding on the floor.

"Damn..what is this." Alvi touched her nose and found a red liquid in her hand.

"Alvi.." the father grabbed and helped Alvi stand up.

Between wanting to cry, being annoyed, and wanting to laugh, Avril turned her face away.

"father. Give her the answer that I blatantly rejected her proposal. I don't want to see his face, and I don't want to be in touch with people like him anymore. I'm not a cheap woman dad. I don't interfere with people's relationships, I don't-"

"Stop kid. I understand you're angry. But don't make me worry about suddenly locking yourself in the room." Said the father watching Avril's cheeks flushed from the slap from Amel.

Father walked up to Avril and gently hugged her youngest daughter.

Alvi still lowered her nose and sounded sobbing. His hands were now filled with blood.

"I can't Avril. How could I leave behind what has been my life's purpose."

"I don't care about Alvi." Avril buried her face in father's.

"If you don't stay away from me, then I'll stay away from you." Avril ran downstairs and locked herself in Galih's room.

When Alvi was about to pursue Avril, the father pulled Alvi's hand.

"Look at your condition. Clean up your blood and let me talk to Avril.

Alvi cleaned her face in Avril's bathroom. And put his coat on Avril's bed so as not to be exposed to blood or water. After finishing, Alvi followed the father to Galih's room.

"What's wrong if I want to be friends with Alvi?" Sluggishly.

"But there's no need to talk like that." Avril again sobbed loudly. Amel's words continued to ring in his ears.

I opened the door and approached Avril.

"Meet Alvi. I know you're upset, but it's not entirely Alvi's fault."

"I don't want dad. And let him go home. I don't want her here." Avril wiped the tears on her face.

"Don't be so Avril." said the father standing next to the mattress.

"Then what should I do? Meeting him alone has made me cursed like that, especially if anyone knows Alvi is always here, maybe the curse will be even worse." Isak Avril is back.

"You sure you don't want to see him?" Avril shakes.

"Here's dad. Don't force Avril." Said Alvi suddenly who was already standing by the door.

Dad approached Alvi and took her to the study.

Dad sat on the sofa followed by Alvi in front of him.

"I'm sorry Avril. I'm sure it's only temporary."

"No dad. I'm the one who's wrong. On behalf of Amel, I'm sorry." Alvi said. "But I'm serious dad. I really love Avril." Alvi looked up convincingly.

I just stared at Alvi.

"So? What are you gonna do now?" Ask dad.

"Maybe. After that, I'll talk to him again." Dad nodded in response.

"Son Ahmad or not, I still trust you Alvi." Said Dad leaning on the sofa.

"Why with papa?" Tanya Alvi scrunched her forehead.

"Your father is the person I trust the most. He is very good at being, honest in his words, and never once draws his words back. If he says, he will. And now it's all on you." Said the brooding father to Alvi's eyes.

Alvi was speechless digesting the words of father.

"I'm not as good as papa. Didn't you know I used to spend time at nightclubs until I forgot to come home. And the news is circulating among all. And now I'm only known as a bastard." Alvi turned her face away.

"But I know what you're doing, don't you? Let people say anything about you. But I'll completely trust you." Alvi smiled in response to father.

"Thank you dad."

But Alvi went up and kissed my father's hand.

"I'm going home from Dad."

"You're not going back to the company? And what about your wounds?"

"Dad just calm down. I'm doing fine. And I've got Ray to handle the company." Alvi smiled back. Alvi passed by leaving father's study. After closing the door, Alvi turned to Galih's closed room where Avril was still inside.

Then Alvi walks out and enters the car, passing away leaving Avril's house.

. Avril stared at her phone screen, and felt claustrophobic when she saw a photo of Alvi in her chat history.

Avril slowly fell asleep.

"If you were still here." Lirih. "Lidya" he closed his eyes.

. After taking time on the trip, Alvi enters the house with a slight stagger due to the banging effect. Bu Rumi as the butler and caregiver of Alvi since she was a child walked up to him.

"Master is okay?" Tanya Bu Rumi looked worried.

"I want to go to the room." Alvi glanced for a moment.

"Let me take you." Alvi turned to look at the voice that suddenly sounded near the stairs.

"No Dina. I can do it myself." Dina then lowered her head politely as Alvi passed by her and slowly climbed the stairs.

Alvi tightly closed the door of her room.

. Until a few days, Avril was getting better and no longer confined in the room. With the efforts of Galih and Nadia who persuaded Avril.

Not with Alvie. His condition is getting worse. For days Alvi refused to eat, and finally an infusion hose stuck in his right arm. Next to him sat a young doctor. Injecting medicinal liquid so that Alvi is not too weak. But because there was not enough food intake, Alvi continued to lie on the mattress, and did not open her eyes.

Avril's name continues to be thrown when Alvi falls asleep.

Noah let out a long sigh staring at Alvi's condition.

"I'm just a doctor really don't understand. Your body temperature is now not too hot, only your blood pressure is decreased, you can not wake up like that. And wake up when you're nosebleed, and take your medicine."

The door opened, and Galih was seen entering Alvi's room.

"How is he doing?"

"It should have improved, but since it's a longing disease, it seems like my medicine alone won't cure it. I need Avril's help. Only the presence of Avril could cure him right now." Galih looked at the pale face of Alvi. Turn around, walk out and shut the door.

. Avril who walked to the campus parking lot again met with Aldi.

"Avril? Where the hell have you been? Lately I have rarely seen you. Is Alvi healed?" Avril scrunched her forehead in surprise, looked at Aldi fixedly and tried to digest his words.

"Hey? You didn't hear me?" Aldi waved his hand before Avril's face.

"What do you mean?"

"don't you know Alvi's sick?" Ask Aldi. And Avril just shook her head in response.

"Are you serious? Aren't you very close to Alvi?"

"Now not Aldi." Avril turned her eyes away.

Aldi was silent at Avril's reply.

"But I heard that the condition is very bad. Even his friend who became a doctor came alone and took care of Alvi at his home. To date, no one knows how she is." Obviously Aldi. The worry began to cover him. Avril walked over leaving Aldi still standing on the spot.

Avril drove her car home. It was Galih's car that had just entered the main gate.

Avril ran a little to chase after Galih who had entered my father's study.

Avril reached for the doorknob and was about to open it, but stopped when she heard Galih's conversation and a faint father heard because it seemed, both of them were near the door.

"How is he doing now?" Ask dad.

"It looks like he's gonna die soon dad." Answer Galih flat make Avril sculpt in front of the door.

"Take your word Galih. This is no joke." Said dad upset.

"Sorry dad. I'm just kidding."

"Your band's too much."

"But I'm serious dad. His face was pale, his body temperature was cold, unwilling to eat, what did that mean if not a sign of dying?"

Avril was sitting limp in front of my dad's office.

Avril cried and covered her face. Hearing sobs outside, Galih opened the door and found Avril crying.

"What are you doing?"
