I Want What I Don't Want
Bakmies



"This.", Sky gave a helmet when Rhea had come to him. "Close grip.", he added as soon as Rhea had boarded his bell.


The sky rode his motorbike leisurely, in order to be able to stay longer with Rhea.


While on the way, Rhea hugged the Sky tightly.


The sky was initially pleased with it, but the longer he felt Rhea getting forward leaning on his back and getting heavier.


"Rhea?", he patted slowly the back of Rhea's hand that was on her stomach.


"...", there's no answer.


"Rhea.!", he began to shake Rhea's hand slightly. Rhea's two hands that were being linked were slightly released and drooped. Rhea fainted.


"Damn!". The sky stretched out one hand back holding onto Rhea's back so as not to fall. He sped up his bike a little carefully and headed for the nearest hospital.

"Yes, I'm again in Muara Kasih hospital. You got a duplicate house key, right? You just go in. I'll keep Rhea here", Sky hung up on Sean's phone.


He then cupped his left hand with his right hand that was holding Rhea's left hand.


Rhea was still unconscious. The doctor said her stomach acid rose plus dehydration because it was under the scorching sun in a weak condition.


Not long after, Sean arrived. He stopped before the door to see the sky clasping tightly onto Rhea's hand. He abandoned his intention to go inside, then sat down in an outdoor chair.


Sean sighed softly from feeling unwilling to see the two of them earlier. 'I have to keep this feeling for them. Don't let me make my friendship break down just because of a woman.'


Yes, Sean realized that he also fell in love with Rhea. This was also the first time he liked someone.


He was famous for being a playboy. He was always happy to tease the women who approached him. But none of them took her seriously, so she never dated once.


Unlike the case with Sky who often dating because he is too kind-hearted so do not have the heart to refuse if anyone shoots him.


Back to Rhea's nursery. Rhea finally realized when the Sky slumped his head beside Rhea's bed with still holding his hand.


"Lang.", call him in a soft voice.


"Rhea!?", Heaven straightened his head and held Rhea's cheek with his right hand. "You finally realize. How you feeling? Is there anything still that hurts?"


"I'm doing fine. I want to drink.", Rhea's voice was a little hoarse.


The sky helped Rhea sit back and gave her a glass of water. Rhea drank it slowly.


"Did I faint again?", asked Rhea after drinking a little and gave her drinking glass to the Sky.


"Yes. Your stomach acid doctor said up and then dehydrated", clear Sky while returning the glass to the nightstand.


"You may faint on the bike. I shouldn't have complied with your request to go home" he added, holding Rhea's right cheek.


"I'm fine" said Rhea smiling as she held Heaven's hand on her cheek.


Geck, Tok, Tok.


Sean knocked on the door before entering. Hearing that, Sky and Rhea immediately took off their hands. Sean had seen it before he knocked on the door.


"How are you doing, Rhea?", asked Sean as soon as he went inside.


"Are you stupid? Forcing himself to go home while your condition was still weak", Sean grumbled up to Rhea and lifted the parcel in his right hand. "Here I bring bakmie."


"Young... You are very understanding. I'm so hungry. You even bought my favorite food. Here, I want to eat now." Rhea smiled broadly and stuck her hands out toward Sean.


"So you didn't spend time eating porridge, so I know you must still be hungry. You eat a lot, so where full if only porridge" said Sean pinch Rhea's nose.


"What hell! Sick tau!", Rhea flicked Sean's hand from his nose. "Most of all I need to eat a lot to live the burden of life" he added, rubbing his nose.


"Yes. The burden of your life will think of me."


"Sok knows! It's been. Where's bakmie-ku?"


Although he knew there was nothing between them, it still made Heaven jealous of their familiarity. He felt that Rhea was very different in treating him with Sean.


While with Sean, Rhea looks excited with a big smile. Unlike when with him, not much to say and like still maintaining distance.


"I went out first to take care of the administration", Sky got up and walked out without giving Sean and Rhea a chance to answer.


"This. Eating alone or being bribed?", Sean took out the bakmie from the plastic wrap. "I'm a bribe, huh? Let's be friendly", with a ignorant smile Sean began to open the stereofoam bakmie wrap.


"No. I ate it myself, the sooner I finished", Rhea took the bakmie from Sean's hand and ate it with a hearty meal.


"Basic greed. Slowly eat it, I won't ask for it." Sean ruffled Rhea's upper hair with anxiety.


"Hm", replied Rhea with a nod.


Sean then sat on the chair that the Sky had occupied. He looked at Rhea meaningfully. He wanted to ask how it had to do with the sky. Did something happen between them.


But he abandoned his intention to ask that question. Because he is not ready to accept if there really is something between them. Although he knew one day they would be together because they liked each other, unlike him who clapped one hand.


"Do I need to remind you every day to eat regularly?"


"Like an alarm?", asked Rhea who was still busy chewing.


"Yes. I'll be your life alarm. You just say you want to be reminded of what else besides eating, I will remind you later. And will always be ready for you."


"That's it. Don't talk sweet in front of me. How many women have you seduced."


"I wish it was a lot. But none of them that I treat specifically." Sean stood up to take the empty stereofoam wrap from Rhea's hand and put it in the plastic wrap before.


"really? Then how's your girlfriend? Wasn't someone special?", Rhea reached out her right hand receiving a glass of water given by Sean.


"I don't have a boyfriend, and I've never been in a relationship" replied Sean shrugging.


"I don't believe." After drinking, Rhea gave her empty glass back to Sean.


"If you don't believe it, you can ask the Sky", Sean received a glass from Rhea and placed it on the nightstand.


"The sky must be on your side."


Rhea was about to wipe her mouth with the back of her hand, but was held back by Sean by gently pulling Rhea's wrist. Instead, he gently rubbed Rhea's lips with the thumb of her right hand.


"If you still don't believe me, you can ask my college friends, my High School, my Junior High School, or my Elementary School. Or you can ask my family."
