I Am You And That Time II

LOVE CANNOT BE FORCED

Still flashback

When in High School

VIA

It was raining that afternoon, when Gabriel and I were going home together, just as my mother had advised me to bring an umbrella today, it turned out to be very appropriate

Gabriel opened his bag and checked

" ah, it looks like my umbrella is left in the locker ! " Gabriel hit her head softly for being careless. That day we were supposed to be able to go home together in one umbrella, but Gabriel did not accept my proposal

" i have to pick it up in the locker ! " i'm agreeing with Gabriel's wishes, he immediately sprinted back into the classroom

" Gabriel, I'm waiting here ! " i yelled at him, I thought he didn't hear my voice but the reply was clear I heard that afternoon

" you go first, afraid the rain is getting heavier ! "

Finally that day I decided to go home by myself, ah. but it didn't, I don't know why I didn't decide to leave Gabriel that afternoon. After waiting for a few minutes, I decided to return to class

" a long time ago, didn't she find her umbrella ? " i thought because I had been waiting for almost an hour but Gabriel never showed up, so I finally decided to catch up with him

JENNIES

Via and Gabriel never said they were in a special relationship, but I could see from the look on my best friend's face, he always followed Gabriel and spent more time with the boy

" ah, pissed! if only he hadn't come here ! "

Yes, I often wished that if Gabriel was not present between us, my friendship and Via were troubled by the presence of that spoiled young man

I never liked him even from the beginning we met, he looks moody and in view of his body he is not a strong man. Gabriel has pure white skin so that his veins can be seen clearly, his lips are red will be more blushing if he continues to bite him

Even so his shoulders were quite sturdy, and his palms were also large

Ah, I so remembered the incident in my room earlier, he began to dare to come up to me with his charm, he thought I would be tempted, maybe a little

But once again I uphold my relationship with Via, we have spent a lot of time together, I consider his ignorance at that time was just a misunderstanding, I do not want our friendship to be damaged

As time goes on, everything can change. Like what happened this afternoon

I just threw my pencil and took it back on the floor, I was so upset I couldn't finish my sentence until I was late, even Via wasn't waiting for me anymore! since when has he been so indifferent to me ?

I just crouched down and picked up my pencil, my lips chuckling with annoyance considering my friend might have gotten home with the fucking guy ! I just want to be angry

A pair of shoes startled me, I quickly got up and found Gabriel's astonished face

" you." said I can't believe he's still here, just like telepathy, when I peel about him and he immediately appears in front of me

" you haven't come home yet ? " ask her, should she ask like that ? of course not yet, he knows I'm getting punished for being late for three consecutive days

" i thought you were home, because your desk was empty" Gabriel told me, ah. Don't tell me they don't realize my condition is locked in the bathroom because of stomach pain

" ah, I was in the bathroom, tired of going back and forth to pick up tissue, I brought my bag. " said I limp, I immediately landed myself in the chair, I was, I will continue writing my sentence

" uh ! this punishment makes me desperate ! " i threw away the book until it fell to the floor

Gabriel picked up the fallen book, he also took a pencil in my hand, the young man immediately sat down and began to write to connect the writing of my punishment

Gabriel looked dumb, he complied when I took over my duty again, but the disease in my stomach was really uncompromising, at a time like this my stomach was wrapped around again

" i'm asking you to help ! " i said quickly, immediately I ran towards the bathroom, today is really bad luck for me

After spending a lot of energy in the toilet, I returned to class

Surprise ! Gabriel finished my sentence ! geez, I have to thank you this time, even if I have to, no matter how much he has helped me

" thank you.. "my sentence was cut off because the man immediately stood up, his face was clearly shocked to see my arrival, what's wrong ?

" are you okay ? your face is so pale ! " as quickly as Gabriel wiped my sweat with the tip of his shirt, he tidied my wet hair, ah, what the hell is this ! his behavior is too excessive

" i, it's okay "my answer is holding back the toughness, he with a frantic face just kept wiping my front hair, ah. This is it again !

" let's hand this over, and I'll take you home "he said quickly tidied up the bag and took me out of class, I want to refuse but it seems like my energy is really running out at this time, so I'll just obey

That afternoon, the atmosphere was darker, the air also felt cooler, probably because of the rain. I felt Gabriel's clasping hand in my palm, after finishing the punishment I followed Gabriel's slow pace

not long after that Via appeared before me, making my feelings more anxious and weaker, the cold as if it immediately hit me and made my body stiff, I saw a surprised look on his face

" ah, I'll grab something first in the locker ! " Gabriel left me and Via alone again, I don't want my fear all this time, I don't want our friendship to be broken just because Gabriel, I always stay away from it !

Gabriel came with an umbrella and a jacket, he immediately put the jacket on my shoulder, I was still confused what kind of face to put on when Via saw the young man's behavior to me, could he be angry ?

" are you okay, Jen ? " Via was embracing my shoulder, her face looking anxious. I could only nod in doubt, I took a glance towards Gabriel's face, the young man smiled as if nothing was tough between us, was I the only one who thought too much ?

" Via... "

***

" Viaa.. "

many times Zian called Via until finally the girl realized from her daydream, Zian smiled bitterly realizing the girl before him was still disturbed by his past

" your drink is cold" said Zian, reminding the contents of the Via glass, the girl replied with a small smile

Gabriel goes down his car and approaches Jeni, the man delivering a lot of help for the foundation

Today Jeni's face looks pale, making some people worry and ask her how she is, maybe because of her pregnancy or because of her concerns

Zian could clearly see the arrival of Gabriel who greeted the people around him with a smile, Zian could also catch the look on Jeni's face that held a million sorrows there

Via furrowed his brows looking at the look in Zian's eyes that were staring a long time in the opposite direction from his sitting position, just now that Via was willing to turn his head following Zian's gaze, the young man immediately held onto Via's face, and then he looked back, he held back with his palm

" what's up ? " ask Via wonder

Zian initially looked puzzled, but he smiled widely and answered Via's puzzled look

" you don't like the scenery there, you better see my handsome face ! " answered trying to entertain

Via laughs amusedly, he knows very well if Zian is on his side, this man is trying to comfort his heartbroken feelings, but himself still feels pain because of his unrequited love, he said, but whatever it was Via was happy, he complied

Gabriel grabs Jeni's shoulder, the man leads his wife into the car, ah. Although they have not made a big party yet, but both families have confirmed their marriage, it is the best way out for Gabriel.. maybe Jeni, but not for Via.
