Is Love For Carla

Chapter 3

Carla runs over to Alex, who has just entered the living room.

While displaying her sweet smile, Carla splashes her body into the arms of Alex who is still wearing her office clothes. Alex greeted him with a warm embrace. Carla's long hair strands are left pretty.

"You're cured, aren't you, baby?" alex asked gently while still hugging the tiny body of his lover.

"Eumm..," answered Carla, closing her eyes in Alex's arms.

"Eumm...what?" tease Alex while smiling knot.

Carla let go of her embrace and looked at Alex with a look on her face.

"Eumm.I'm cured now. Moreover, today you kept your promise to return home quickly, so I feel very happy," Carla showed her row of neat teeth while smiling brightah in front of the man she loved so much.

"Why are you so adorable, anyway." Alex pinched Chubby Carla's white cheeks in a fit of anxiety.

"Auww.sakiitt..," Carla sulks cute while holding her cheek that was pinched by Alex.

"Are you healed?" alex asked again trying to convince himself while touching Carla's forehead.

"Yeah.true. I've been feeling better. My head was not dizzy and my body was feeling much fresher now. O yes thank you for the food you sent me this afternoon."

"Eumm...Didn't eat well?"

"It's delicious, I like it" Carla replied, wiggling her body like a child that made her more cute in Alex's eyes.

The night has arrived, after the second dinner this lovebirds choose to sit back in the living room sofa while watching television.

Alex embraces Carla's shoulder, which is now her head resting spoiled on Alex's shoulder.

"Darling..You're not angry anymore, are you?" carla asked as she played her fingers on Alex's chest, which was wrapped in a dark blue t-shirt that night.

"Eumm.I'm not angry, as long as you don't repeat it. I want you to be a good boyfriend, who always obeys what I say and never refutes me, then I will always be nice to you too. You understand, right?"

Carla's fingers stopped playing on Alex's chest, he then straightened his sitting position while bowing his head sadly.

"You why?" ask Alex who doesn't like to see Carla's face change at the moment.

"Ng.a-I'm fine. I'm just sleepy, I want to rest first huh," Carla reasoned, then immediately rushed to walk into her room.

While Alex looked at his departure with an annoyed face. Alex doesn't understand that Carla must have disagreed with what she said just now.

Carla went into her room with a sad heart. He understood very well what Alex had said to him earlier. He knew that what Alex meant was to obey his words to no longer visit his father in prison. But Carla chose to be quiet rather than finally having a fight with Alex, after all she also did not want Alex to hit him if he denied her words earlier.

Carla headed to her room, and sat down on a chair that was placed in the balcony. Her eyes full of sadness looked up at the sky.

"Why doesn't Alex ever want to understand me? why all this time he seemed not to care about the case that befell my father? is it so shameful to have a lover like me who is the daughter of an inmate?" various questions churned in his heart which is now filled with sadness. And without feeling his tears came back to his cheeks every time he remembered about his father and also about Alex who always forbade him to visit his father.

Meanwhile in the middle room, Alex was still sitting stunned with annoyance. Both beads of his eyes looked at the television but he did not enjoy the show that is now being shown on his television screen at this time.

"Drrt..drrtt...drrtt. With laziness Alex also grabbed his phone that he placed on the table in front of him.

"Hello" said Alex lazily.

"Hello Alex, it's me Jessica" replied someone across the phone who turned out to be her best friend since childhood.

"Oh..you're Jessica, what's the matter tonightyou call me?"

"Sorry Alex if I'm bothering you, but right now I really need your help, can you come to my apartment right now?"

"What happened to you?"

"Come here first, I'll explain later. I can't explain it on the phone right now. Please come I need you Alex."

"Ng..alright then I will ask permission first to my lover, then I will be there soon," said Alex later.

"Eumm well, after that you have to come here as soon as possible" replied Jessica who already knew that Alex now lives at home with her lover Carla.

After hanging up his phone call, Alex immediately rushed to Carla's room.

Carla who was surprised by the arrival of Alex who arrived - arrived at him in the balcony of his room was quickly wiped her tears so as not to be discovered by Alex that he had just cried.

"Carla," call Alex.

"Ah...iya Alex, what's wrong?" carla is nervous while avoiding Alex's eyes because she doesn't want Alex to look at her eyes that have just cried.

"You...why?" alex asked astonished at Carla's slightly strange behavior according to him.

"I-I-it's okay. Oh, is there anything you've been looking for me here?" Carla tried to divert the conversation.

"Ah yes, that's me.ng.tadi...Jessica just called me. He said he currently really needs my help," said Alex stammered, because he knew the relationship between the lover and his best friend had been a little less good because of a misunderstanding between them before.

"Then?" hearing Jessica's name suddenly made Carla's mood worse until she said in a sharp tone.

"Yes.he..ng.he asked me to come to his apartment now."

"What's the matter really, until you have to go to the apartment tonight - tonight?"

"I don't know either, he said he'd explain it later when I got to his apartment."

"Can't you go see him tomorrow?"

"Oh baby don't overdo it like this. After all he was my best friend since childhood, it was only natural that he asked for my help if he was in trouble."

"Ck.ya it's up to you. But remember not to stay there long, if your business is done you have to go home soon."

"Yes well, I will definitely be home soon if my business is done. And you...didn't you just say you want to rest?..but why are you sitting here alone huh?" now it's Alex's turn to corner him.

"I-I was willing to rest, but.my eyes did not want to be closed too, so I went out immune to look for fresh air," replied Carla reasoned.

"Wind of night is not good for you. You better go to bed now, don't sleep too late, you'll be sick again."

"Yes well, I'll be asleep soon," Carla replied at last.

"Yes already then I go first yes, take good care of yourself at home."

"Goup!" Alex kisses Carla on the forehead before walking out of Carla's room. Then he immediately took his jacket and car keys and rushed to Jessica's apartment.

Carla can only resign Alex's departure to meet Jessica who is a friend since childhood. Carla did not like Jessica too much, because from the beginning she met Jessica, because she had been dating Jessica, he could already feel something strange with Jessica from the way she looked and acted in front of Alex which implies that actually being silent - Jessica seemed to harbor a sense of liking for Alex.

Alex does consider Jessica as nothing more than a friend, but in fact it is clear in Carla's eyes that Jessica expects more than just a friendly relationship with Alex. Even Carla once got information from one of Alex's High School friends named John who said that actually Jessica had once expressed love to Alex, who was, but unfortunately rejected by Alex who only consider him as a friend.
