I Call it, Love
Episode 14 - The Times Before There was a Third Person
The afternoon sky was brighter than usual. Orange color to orange in the sky adds to the atmosphere to be more romantic.
Eliana ran over to someone who was coming out of the school gate.
"Hosh .. hosh .. wait!!!" eliana shouted with an irregular breath.
A familiar voice rang out in both of his ears, the person he summoned certainly stopped his footsteps upon hearing the call from Eliana.
"Eliana? What's up?" ask that person who is none other than Riu.
"You, I want to talk to you for a moment" Eliana said with an anxious look on her face.
Riu looks around to make sure that Bomi is not at her side. After feeling safe enough, Riu pulled Eliana's arm and carried her out of the school yard to a quiet place.
"What do you want to tell me?" riu asked, turning his face to the crowded streets filled with vehicles.
"A--anu, I heard Lucas hit you. I want to represent him to apologize to you," he said, bowing his head.
Riu looked at Eliana who was speaking in front of him. He then held onto Eliana's right and left shoulders, causing Eliana to look up.
"No problem, after all it's not your fault" continued Riu with a big smile.
"But still I feel guilty, I don't know what to do other than apologize to you" Eliana said guiltily.
"Hmm, what if we go to the restaurant? That's Lucas's ransom for hitting me like this, " Riu's throwing a bit of a tantrum.
"Ah, ba-well, but what if Bomi sees us?"
"No, I'll take you to an expensive restaurant anyway" said Riu, who clasped Eliana's palm tightly.
Seen a car driving towards them, both entered the car to get to their destination.
It only takes 15 minutes, they arrive at a famous restaurant.
"Is this not too much?" eliana asked doubtfully.
"Of course not, you know? Am I a lot of money?"
"He'em, okay ... "
Eliana and Riu enter the restaurant at the same time. Both of them sit in a pair of seats that look more luxurious than the others.
A waiter approached the two with a menu book in his hand. He then gave the menu book to Eliana.
"Riu, what do you want to order?" eliana's question made Riu bring her face closer.
"I'm a beef, a chocolate cream drink" Riu said.
"Hmm, I ordered brownies cake and Strawberry cream." Eliana then returns her menu book to the waitress.
Shortly after the two ordered food and drinks, their orders arrived. Eliana devoured the food before her casually, as did Riu.
"Eliana, I'm sorry. I was the one who hit Lucas first. But if I tell you, maybe we won't be together like today anymore" Riu said in her heart.
...----------------...
1 hour passed, the sky began to look dark because the night was about to arrive. Eliana quickly finished her remaining food before Riu took her home.
The two of them came out from the restaurant where they ate once they finished filling their stomachs. Slowly Riu entered her parked car right in front of the restaurant.
"Hmm, Riu .. " call Eliana in a soft voice.
"What's wrong?"
"I think I'm walking, besides my house isn't far from here. You go home, soon night," Eliana said as she tidied up her messy hair.
"No, I'll take you. If you want to walk to get home, no problem .. because I will keep you company until the destination," Riu continued to make Eliana's face red.
"Ti-no need, I can- "Riu pulled her arm and clasped Eliana's palm.
"Actually Riu is very nice to me, but why can't I be nice to her? Is it because of my jealousy towards Bomi?" eliana thought as she muttered looking at Riu.
"It's been a while since we didn't go home from school. I think it's better that we continue like this" said Riu with two eyeballs focused on the afternoon sky.
"A-what do you mean?" eliana asked a little.
"Well, someday you'll know what I mean. Maybe it won't be long" he said, staring at Eliana.
A cynical smile appears on someone's face. The man dressed in black then hit a wall beside him. His figure is certainly not known by Riu and Eliana, because he hid between two walls in a small alley.
"GRAY!!!!"
A black cat suddenly stopped their steps. Eliana who feels traumatized if she meets a black-haired cat spontaneously runs behind Riu.
"Eh? What's up?"
"Actually, I'm afraid of black cats" said Eliana, who made Riu laugh.
"Hey!! Why are you laughing?!! Quickly drive him out!!" eliana firmly with an annoyed look.
*BOUGH!*
Riu threw his backpack on target. Eliana then again stood beside Riu.
"Beres, right?"
"Ta-but, pity her too. It looks like he's gonna be in pain,"
"Hey, didn't you tell me to throw him out? Huh, why am I being blamed?" riu said with a long sigh.
"But I didn't tell you to hit him, you know!"
...----------------...
Eliana flushed down her body after finishing busying herself with the bath soap. He grabbed a cell phone that was on top of a small closet.
"Heuh ... " Eliana grunts.
"Why do I feel dislike if Bomi becomes Riu's lover? Am I jealous of him? Why don't I tell Riu from the beginning" Eliana said as she stared at the ceiling.
**clinic*
A message came in on his phone. Lucas' name was on his phone screen. As soon as possible he read the message that Lucas sent.
Slowly his foot stepped out of the house after getting a message from Lucas that he was waiting for Eliana. He looked around to make sure someone was looking for him.
"Hey .. " call Lucas while patting Eliana on the shoulder. He was surprised by the fog.
"Heuh, who do I think!! Don't you know, my heart's almost taken out!!" eliana firmly with an annoyed look.
Lucas only responded with a cynical smile. He then held onto the palms of Eliana.
"Are you mad at me?" ask Lucas to make sure.
"Hmm, that's. Who told you to make a scene at school!!"
"You don't know yet, do you? Riu first, who hit me" Lucas said.
"Ta-but still you hit him until he's battered!"
"Heuh, that's it. I promise I won't repeat what I did" Lucas said as he stuck out his little finger.
Eliana returned Lucas's little finger, both of whom laughed after discussing something considered funny.
