If You Love Him

If You Love Him
Chapter 9 is More Special



A message Nisa received that afternoon made her shocked, how not? after a conversation with Sany who insisted that Akim liked him now Akim did not actually invite him to go somewhere.


It was to his tant house, when asked what needs Akim answered to take an item.


Considering Nisa is finally curious and agrees, she asks Akim to pick her up at the boarding house.


No one knows the invitation including Sany, he was afraid that if he spoke Sany would actually further reinforce his assumptions.


Returning to the boarding house there was little concern in Nisa's heart when she had to change clothes, even after she chose the right clothes she sat long enough in front of the glass just to make up.


"Aarrhh! it's because of Sany's words!" his grunts for starting to beautify themselves more than usual.


Choosing only to strip her hair and put on thin makeup she was ready to leave, just as Akim said he was waiting outside.


"Hi" said Nisa who was suddenly nervous to see Akim standing next to her car.


"Yeah!" take her in later while opening the door.


The treatment again reminded Nisa of Sany's words, she immediately deleted it because it felt impossible.


"What do you want to take Kim? is it heavy to carry two people?" nisa asked curiously as the car had sped on the road.


"Hehe.no, just a laptop!" saith.


"Laptops?" ask Nisa wonder.


"Yes, my aunt wants to sell her laptop that is not kepake because it has bought a new one. That's why I asked him for my sister before he could sell it" he said.


"Oh you have a sister, still in school?" nisa's asking starts to wonder at Akim's family that has never been told.


"Lecture," he said.


"Chick or boy?"


"Girl."


"The child who was most spoiled by my parents because he was often sickly since childhood, but his son was never spoiled. When his laptop often error I've been planning to buy a new laptop but he does not want, this is also I want to take a laptop from aunty because asked to be with him," he continued.


Nisa smiled, at a glance she already had a harmonious picture of the Akim family. How envious of his own family.


Without noticeably chatting all the way they finally arrived, Aunt Laras welcomed their arrival with joy especially Akim brought a girl.


"Let's go in!" take friendly.


"Thank you aunt" he said with a smile.


Akim who had been used to playing there continued to another room to check the laptop while Nisa was invited to chat in the living room by Aunt Laras, apparently he is a person who likes to chat so Nisa is not awkward to make a sound.


"If you may know how long have you been with Akim?" ask aunt Laras slobberly.


Making Nisa suddenly awkward because they haven't been chatting for long.


"No aunt! we're just friends, I happen to know Akim from my office friend Sany" he said.


"Sany.. oh yeah auntie remember! so they are still friends apparently," muttered aunt Laras thought for a moment.


"Tante knows Sany?" ask Nisa.


"Mm, Akim is humble and easy to make friends with. All his girl friends know, it's just that Akim usually introduces his girlfriend to aunt before his parents. That's why aunt thinks you have a relationship" he explained.


"Oh no aunt" he said.


The chat finally made the topic of the former line of Akim revealed, during this time apparently Akim closer to Aunt Laras because he felt less attention from his parents.


This causes him to live a long distance relationship, because of this obstacle he always failed without having time to bring his girlfriend with his parents even though he was steady to a serious level.


Long they talk until the night does not feel late, Akim also invited Nisa home and they say goodbye.


"Did aunty ask you a strange question?" akim asked as they were on their way home.


"Eh, no ko," lied Nisa.


"really? aunty is a cool and chatty person, sorry if she asked all kinds of questions until you are not comfortable."


"No, I think the aunt is funny. Even I'm happy to be able to talk freely with him," he said.


"Thank God" said Akim.


A silence was suddenly present between them, before long. It was only a few minutes until the rain suddenly started to fall.


"Any, when it was bright," murmured Nisa while looking forward.


"The weather is now unpredictable, fortunately we are in the car. So not bored," Akim replied.


When the rain was getting heavier somehow not only the smell of the land that burst onto the surface but also the contents of his heart, a void that had existed for a long time.


"Oh yeah don't you ever come home?" ask Akim suddenly.


"Rarely," Nisa said briefly.


"Why?" ask again.


"So, I just feel more comfortable in the hostel. Maybe because no one will be welcome home either" he replied.


Seeing the sad look of Nisa makes Akim more curious.


"Are your parents gone?" ask carefully.


"It's still there, it's just that my dad never came home after my stepbrother was born. Mother also seemed to not care about whatever happened to me, the house was already deserted as far as I could remember."


Now Akim understands from where the quiet nature of Nisa, apparently since long ago he was not attentive and almost no one invited to talk.


The more he knew Nisa the more he could see the figure of the girl who thirsted for attention and protection, making him more and more compassionate about the misfortune.


No more questions asked by Akim until they reached the boarding house Nisa, unfortunately the rain still flushed even though it subsided a little.


"Wait here" Akim ordered.


He went out first and opened the jacket he was wearing, standing next to the car door he knocked signalling that Nisa could get out.


Although hesitant he complied, once out Akim immediately unfurled his jacket. Protecting Nisa's head and body from the rain.


"Come on!" take it with you while you start walking quickly.


They ran up to the front of the house, sheltered from the raindrops Nisa looked at Akim in surprise. What Akim does is now arguably more attention than usual.


"Don't forget to change your clothes and drink warm water" Akim said with a smile.


"Thank you, you too," said Nisa somehow had to say what else.


"Bye bye!" then he immediately ran away to the car.


Nisa was still there, staring at Akim until the car left with a raging mind. Wondering if it was true that Akim had feelings for her, for some reason from that night on he felt that everything was a little more special than usual.
