IF THERE IS STILL LOVE

DRIZZLED

The night passed more and more concentrated, from outside the window there was a drizzling gurgle that clashed gently with the leaves.

Elin woke up from her sleep. I don't know how long she cried. Unknowingly, he fell asleep at the end of the bed. For a moment he winked his netra that felt puffy and a little sore. His throat felt dry. Then he went to the small table in the room, where there was a glass of water. Elin grabbed the glass and gulped it down a few. Then rub her wet lips.

He just remembered, had not checked his phone from earlier. when he opened, it turns out there are many calls that were missed, and also some messages that have not been read.

His eyes were fixed on the message from Arga. And then he opened the message.

'what are you doing? '

'Elin, are you all right? '

'Darling.... What's the matter?, why haven't you notified me yet? '

As soon as Arga's message is on the phone screen. Elin glanced at the alarm clock on the nightstand.it showed at 23.30 WIB.

Is he asleep now? should I tell him all this now? No. gabe. I wasn't ready to take his reaction.

Elin struggled in her own mind. He's in a dilemma now. If he tells Arga about this, Elin is afraid of Arga's response which may not be in accordance with his estimates. But if you do not tell Arga, Elin is afraid that Arga will hear this news from others. Whoever it is. The core of Elin is not ready to tell a story right now. Maybe wait for the right time first. Might as well.

He took a deep breath, then slowly threw it away. Then press the call button on her phone screen.

Waiting...

A few seconds later, an answer came from there.

"the end .." Arga's voice sounded relieved there..

"I'm sorry, Ga. I arrived home and fell asleep. " Of course it's lying. He won't tell Arga now.

"Dear, I'm glad you've informed me now. I'm worried about you " replied Arga with her bass voice over there.

" I'm sorry again . I didn't mean to worry you. What are you doing? so late why not sleep? " ask Elin

"I couldn't sleep from earlier. I'm waiting for news from you " replied Arga softly.

"At tomorrow we don't have morning lectures, do we? so you can sleep a little late tonight." Connect it again from the phone.

Elin was silent for a moment. Considering Arga was so worried about her. He recalled his mother's request this afternoon.

That request is so damning. Her mother did not know that there was a man she had to know, a man full of warmth who had changed her life to be more colorful lately.

Her chest is back crowded, what will happen if Arga finds out about Mama's plan. It's unimaginable. She also falls deeply in love with Arga. Elin had fallen in love with the tenderness and comfort created every time she was next to the man. Ah.. why does the taste become this difficult and complicated.

"Elins... "

Arga's voice rang out again on the phone, and it touched Elin's momentary daydream.

"I. yes Ga. " answered Elin slightly.

"What are you thinking? " As her Arga successfully read Elin's situation.

" ah. It'sit's nothing. I'm just moved because you're so worried about me." What a sweet answer.

"How could I not worry about you. You're mylover. Isn't that normal? " Arga smiled gently.

"Yes. You're always right, Mr. Arga. " Sweet Elin stumped at her smile.

"I miss you. "said her later.

"We just met this afternoon. Now you miss me? " Elin Decak. He really likes those words.

"Do you think I need a special time to miss you? "

"That's it. I can never win against you. " Elin advances her lips.

Arga chuckled across the phone.

"Arga, tomorrow you won't have to pick me up."

"Why? " Arga frowned.

" It's okay. It's just that I promised to accompany my best friend to the bookstore tomorrow before going to college"

"Is that so? " Arga thought for a moment.

"alright. Then we'll meet on campus" Broke Arga

"Yes, now you sleep. I'll sleep again too. It's night." said Elin recklessly glanced once more at the alarm clock on the nightstand.

"Okay, baby, I'm going to sleep now. I'll see you tomorrow. "

"Yes. "

"Bye, honey... "

"Bye, Arga"

Then the two of them both decided on the call.

For a moment Elin took a deep breath again.he lay back on the bed, straightened his legs and crossed each other.

He still holds the phone in his chest. His eyes stared at the ceiling of the room, to be honest he could not continue his sleep back, his eyes were no longer sleepy.

Her thoughts returned to the conversation with her mama this afternoon.

Why did mom suddenly want to match me with Aunt Goddess's son? Mama said the Aunt Goddess is the one who wants to be different with mama. Is that the meaning of Aunt Goddess who has this idea? No, this must have something to do with that old man. The goddess is her cousin. Uh! I'm going crazy about all this.

Elin hit the side of her head slowly. Exhaling his angry breath. Then he grabbed a frame that was on his bedside table.

A photo of a man holding a brown-haired girl holding a violin in his hand.The second seemed to be smiling loosely.The man in the photo was his papa, his, the little boy was none other than Elin himself.

Elin stared at the photo for a long time, her tears dripping down both cheeks. All the words "mark" danced in his head.

His finger rubbed gently on the shady and affectionate face of the figure within that frame. His tears could not be filled. Flowing so freely on his cheeks.

"Lad..."

That's the only word that came out of Elin's lips. He sobbed.

The night was getting thick, the drizzle that was left outside had stopped. Only leaves wet on the leaves, and also cold that infiltrates the pores.

That night was cold and wet. The atmosphere was silent, the house of Elin was silent. All eyes may have been closed, leaving only Elin who was still lamenting her grief, accompanying the wet night....
