Forever Love

Waking Up in the Midnight

Silence, there was no sound after Qania made her point to the two men. even Lala was made to be silent with the words Qania's rejection that sounded clear but also kept the feelings of the two men who liked it. Yes, although it still hurt the feelings of the two men.

“Gue no problem elo reject me Qan. I'll still be best friends like we were together. I also thank you for being honest and reminding me that I will never succeed. Thank you for expressing your heart, this way I am relieved. At least I will not be too hopeful lo and will not end pain” said Raka broke the silence.

Qania's tears trickled down by itself as soon as Raka responded to her statement earlier, she then smiled as she wiped her tears.

“Don't cry dong Salsabila” goda Raka makes Qania laugh.

“Gue is actually very sick Qan with your statement earlier. But yes I can do if you already talk like that. I also will not be farin elo but it looks like it might be a little different because I need time to recover my heart injury. Qan, elo was my first love and I couldn't get it. Hmm, how does it hurt huh Qan” said Julius with full honesty while holding his chest.

Qania smiled bitterly at Julius' honest honesty, she liked the nature of the man in front of her who always told her truth about her heart and did not hide her feelings.

‘I really appreciate your honesty Julius and I love that. If you were the first to meet me and not Arkana, maybe I would fall in love with you’,.

‘And you Raka, I'm sure what you say is not entirely true. I'm sure you just want to try and please you. If it hurts then let's just say it hurts, don't be strong-witted just because you're a guy’,.

“Thank you Julius, I'm glad you said that to me. And I will definitely understand if there is a change in you. How heartbreak feels is not good. And I know very well that feeling won't change easily as easily as we turn the palm of the hand. I will understand your changes later” said Qania while smiling warmly at Julius.

“But calm down Qan, my change will not be severe anyway, I will not turn into power rangers kok” joked Julius made Qania laugh while Lala even glared at Julius.

“Uhh garing-garing” cibir Raka.

“Ya crispy qania also laughs kan” Julius.

“Fitness him his hero”,.

“Ya elo aja flat like a wall, can not bekanda”,.

“Oh hey you two don't start deh” ketus Lala.

“Noh it's Lala, you move on aja to dia” said Raka in Julius while pointing at Lala with his chin.

Julius stared flatly at Raka making Raka chuckle.

“Lala can not be disturbed, he was already in soulwin” chirps Qania then put food in his mouth.

“Appaa fooled?” pekik Lala, Raka and Julius together.

“Ciee kompak” ledek Qania.

The three stared at each other then glared at each other, then stared at the horror at Qania.

“Hehe casual dong”,.

“What I've been betrothed brother? Same who? How do I not know?” asked Lala innocently.

“There's deh”,.

“Th brother” peek Lala but Qania cuek-cuek only.

The lecture has started to run as usual and even now it has entered the middle of the lecture. As Julius had said, he would be a little different and sure enough it was proven by a little distance and irritable talk with Qania. He also sent occasional messages to Qania.

Qania could only smile when Julius thought it was just that. But Qania did not protest with Julius' attitude because however it was a risk he had to bear.

Rosa, who saw the distance between Qania and Julius, did not waste the opportunity to blaspheme Qania. But several times Julius still defended Qania and again Rosa was upset with Qania.

Likewise with Raka, he only once a week to visit Qania at his boarding house. He just sends a message often and it's not as long as it used to be. Raka is now so busy with her lectures that it is rare to be able to chat with Qania as she becomes one of the assistant lecturers. But his attention remained as usual to Qania, perhaps his feelings were still the same.

Qania understands Raka's busyness, she knows how busy a lecturer assistant is. He is very grateful because Raka remains the Raka he knows, only Qania still feels guilty to Raka for rejecting his feelings.

Lala had been very upset since knocking on the door of the room and calling out to Qania but there was no word from within. Nek Nilam, who saw Lala nagging in front of Qania's room, approached her and suggested opening the door if there was any interest.

At first Lala hesitated because she did not dare to enter without permission first, but because Nilam's grandmother had told her then she immediately turned the doorknob of Qania's room which was apparently not locked.

Lala clucked while ruffling her waist when she saw Qania who was typing on the laptop while listening to music through her headphone. He also walked towards Qania who was lying on his stomach in bed.

Qania was surprised when Lala sat beside him and he immediately took off his headphone and sat down.

“La how are you in brother's room?” ask Qania.

“Yes yes, sister, I am tired of knocking on the door and calling brother but there is no answer from earlier” said Lala sebal.

“Hehe sorry La, sister did not hear” said Qania, Lala also snorted annoyed.

“Oh yes what is La?” ask Qania again.

“Oh yes? Where is the seminar?” tanya Qania was enthusiastic.

“Emm in hotel Z kak, and who wrote the seminar, emmm, umm.” Lala hesitated to say it, she played her fingers while looking at Qania.

“Who's La?” ask Qania curious.

“Hm Tristan Anggara kak” replied Lala then throw away face.

Qania sighed after hearing Lala's reply. However, he could not forget the haughty attitude of Tristan Anggara who kicked him out just because it came too late. Lala could only glance at Qania who seemed to be thinking while holding her chin with her hands resting on her thighs.

“Emm if you don't want yes no kak” said Lala slowly.

Qania glanced at Lala, she smiled faintly/

“What time?” tanya Qania flat.

“Nine hours a morning kak” Lala replied.

“OK, you do not wake up late again and sister will not tell you to stop again” said Qania with the look of an eagle eye that makes Lala slightly shudder in horror to see it.

“OK brother. Oh yes what is your sister doing?” ask Lala again.

“Oh brother again sow saki” paper replied Qania then took his laptop and put it on the lap.

“Oh yes brother, I go to the room first yes. I'm so sleepy nih” said Lala.

“Oke La, please close the door yes La” pinta Qania.

“Iya brother, good night brother Qania”,.

“Goodnight also La”,.

After Lala's departure, Qania closed her Laptop while staring blankly at the wall of her room.

“Look at you Tristan Anggara, this time I will not be late but I guarantee during the question and answer session I will make it difficult for you even if you can to shame” Qania determination.

Qania continued to work on his paper until late at night when he slept.

“Momm..mmyy..”,.

“Da.dadd..dyy..”,.

“Da.dadd..dyy..”,.

“Aqa daddy mommyy.”,.

“Nek, daddy Aqa nek”,.

Alisha squirmed as she felt her body being shaken. Slowly he opened his eyes and saw his grandson waking him up. Alisha lovingly embraced her granddaughter, taking her into her arms while lying down. Arqasa who was sitting is now back lying in his grandmother's arms.

“Why is grandma's handsome grandson awake? It's still midnight nak” asked Alisha while stroking Arqasa's hair.

Currently there are only Alisha and Arqasa in the room because Zafran is traveling out of town.

“Mommy Aqa nek” said again.

Arqasa who is a few months away will be even two years old a little more has started to be able to connect words even though it is still not so clear.

“Mommy Arqa is bobo now baby. Tomorrow yes grandmother phone Mommy” persuade him.

“Daddy.. daddy Aqa” said again with a beaming face.

Alisha silenced, this is the first time Arqasa mentioned the father with great enthusiasm. Usually only if he sees a picture of Arkana just he will call daddy.

“Daddy is fine baby, he is calm in nature sana” said Alisha wiping her tears.

“Noooo... daddy. daddy Aqa” he said again as if not happy to hear his grandmother's words.

“Is Arkana now missing Arqasa so much that her son is so enthusiastic about calling her? Or did Arqasa wake up dreaming of Arkana? Ah could be that she had a dream meeting with her daddy. Hmm, what a pity you nak” isak Alisha further strengthen her embrace.

Alisha could not help but hold back her tears, her granddaughter did not stop voicing her daddy and kept telling him. He just kept holding his grandson while trying to put him back to sleep.

“It is better not to tell Qania about this, she will definitely be very sad if you know it” muttered Alisha after Arqasa had fallen asleep in her arms.
