Guests At Night



The sky is increasingly rushing down rain water stubs, blindly some parts of the world. The atmosphere in the car was very quiet, even the swift rain was reluctant to beat the silence. Because Xavier closed all the windows of the car glass, so there was not the slightest sound from the noises out there.


Audie was very agitated, I don't know where she turned her face. No stop he cursed his two friends who were relaxing in the back seat of the car. Why did the two girls also force Audie to sit in the front seat, right next to Xavier. Several times Audie played the fingers violently, until without realizing some of the tips of the skin of his fingers had been peeled off. It was customary for the girl to play her fingers while her heart was in a state of anxiety.


"Stop hurting your fingers. Look, you don't even realize your fingers are bleeding." Audie's reflexes turned his gaze to Xavier, the pair of eyes The man was still focused on staring at the streets.


"In front of you is plaster, treat your wounds immediately." Xavier's orders. Several times Audie blinked her eyelids, her brain trying to think that she was the person Xavier was currently talking to.


With her trembling, Audie took the plaster that was before her. He still could not believe that Xavier was watching him right now. His heart now seemed to want to jump from inside there, even the rain outside was unable to eradicate Audie's sweat. On this cold night, Audie felt sultry.


After Audie finished treating the wound on her finger, she turned her eyes back to face Xavier. The man was still focused on staring at the streets that were being drenched in heavy rain.His face was so cold and flat. But I don't know why Audie really likes that face.


"Thank you, Sir!" The girl was slow, barely audible.


"Together!" Xavier Reply.


The atmosphere was now silent again, until one scream made Audie, Reno and Indah fall in shock. Arini's voice could defeat the swift rain even lightning that was thundering in the sky there.


"Lo why the hell is Arini, suddenly told to stop everything. Thankfully, I have no history of heart disease." Ketus Indah, he almost pinned the girl next to him.


"What's up, Arini?" ask Xavier while parking his car on the side of the road.


"I'll just get down here, sir. My girlfriend's car is in the back of our car. Let him take me home." Clearly Arini, her hand was pointing towards the back. That's right, there's a black car parked there.


Audie looked back, then she put on an interrogating face. "Daughter? Don't you have a boyfriend?"


Now Beautiful who looked at Arini sharply, "lo turn with Aldo?" ask the girl with an octave of her voice.


Arini nodded slowly, she grinned as she raised her middle and index fingers into the air. Because Aldo was his 20th ex, broke up 15 times, it was common for Arini. That's why Beautiful is very tired of facing the romance story of her best friend that one.


"This is the umbrella, the rain is still heavy later your clothes can get wet. Just bring the umbrella because I still have one more stock." Xavier said, he thrust the blue umbrella to Arini who was in the backseat.


Arini immediately grabbed the umbrella and thanked him, after which he immediately rushed away.


The car drove back, but the rain was reluctant to fade.


"I'm down at the front compound well, sir." Beautiful speech, spontaneously Audie turned her eyes to the back.


"Gapain Lo down there?"


Beautiful who was busy playing his phone immediately raised his chin, "lately nyokap I'm always angry, I'm lazy with his mouthful chatter. I stay at my aunt's house." Obviously the girl with the long voice.


Right after Xavier's car got in front of the Indah complex, Xavier immediately pulled the car over.


"Gue first yeah, Audie."


"Not using an umbrella?"


"No need, my aunt has already picked me up." Beautifully pointed at a young lady in pajama clothes, in her hand there was already an umbrella to prevent her body from getting wet by the rain.


"Thank you very much Mr. Xavier for the ride."


"Together!" Reply Xavier, pay attention to the beautiful reflection of the glass.


After Indah passed, Xavier returned to drive a car combing the wet road, only a few vehicles passed by due to the rain still did not subside.


Again, Audie again played his already injured fingers. The atmosphere around them is getting heavier. I don't know, that awkwardness is slowly trying to kill Audie. The girl spread her gaze everywhere, occasionally she pinks a little. The silence is unbreakable. There was no conversation between them, nothing to discuss.


"Sir Xavier!"


"Audie!" Say both at the same time. For a few seconds the two looked at each other.


"I.... L am... Mr. Xavier first, what do you want to say, sir?" ask Audie clumsy.


"Just you" said Xavier.


"P-Pak Xavier only."


The man next to Audie just resigned, the look of his face again looks cold and flat. "I don't want to hurt Alea, and I don't want to deal with you either. Stop putting my face on your profile, because it's so distracting. I hope you can understand what I mean. I am just your private teacher. That's why don't you ever think too far."


Suddenly something ripped through Audie's heart. It was true what Xavier said, but somehow it felt so painful when he heard the sentence just now. Audie was the first to love her, but why did she get it? Maybe because Audie was late in confessing her feelings, because now there is a woman who fills the emptiness of the man's heart.


Audie just nodded small, there were tears that he tried to contain until his vision began to blur. Audie shifted her gaze everywhere, her eye glands were getting hot. For years he struggled to get Xavier, and for a year also he tried to forget the man, but when he fought back it was even more broken like a twig so it was difficult to make it whole again.


"You're still in High School, Audie. There are a lot of other guys out there who want you. I know you're still messing around about feelings. But me, my age is ripe for marriage, so stop interrupting my relationship with Alea. I just don't want to lose her, only she's the woman I love, no one can replace her. So stop this crazy behavior of yours before I'm limited to the threshold of patience." Clearly Xavier was at length with a cold aura, as cold as the rain tonight. His pair of eyes did not intend to see the state of Audie, he remained focused on staring at the streets.


Fooling around? Those two words sound annoying. If the man knew, that Audie was not messing with his feelings. If the Man knew the depth of Audie's love, and if the Man knew that his fiancee Alea, the woman he had been adoring all this time had another Man besides him.


"Lantas, what if I don't mess with my feelings, sir? I am not a person who falls in love easily. I love Mr. Xavier is the result of my debate with my heart. I've made sure that I like Mr. Xavier even for a long time. I don't know if Mr. Xavier really forgot me or just pretended to forget. Our age is indeed a long distance away, I am still in High School, but I never play around about my feelings. All the yang-"


"Stop, Audie. Don't be a bully between my relationship with Alea. I'm your tutor and you're just my protege. None of us will be involved by that feeling." Cut Xavier.


As Audie fell silent, it was very difficult to convince her feelings. The tears almost surfed lightly past both of his cheeks. "What if the woman has another man besides Mr. Xavier?" ask Audie later. Actually he did not want to throw the question sentence, but somehow it feels not relieved if it does not convey the truth to Xavier.


"Do you now want to pit me against Alea?"


Audie stared at that flat face, "no, but what if it's true?"


Xavier immediately pulled over his car, right after arriving in front of Audie's house. "Come down, it's here. Stop making my relationship with Alea even more strained." Xavier's orders.


Audie exhaled violently, she was trying to hold back the tears that had been accommodated in her eyes. "Thank you for delivering me!"


"Here, take this umbrella. The rain is still heavy, your body can be exhausted in the rain before reaching the porch."


Audie grabbed the pink umbrella, it felt strange when Xavier had a floral umbrella. Audie closed the car door the man was quite rude.


Audie's steps create a gurgling sound when stepping on the rain water that stagnates, he is still uprooted in the house until finally Xavier car darted down the streets of Surabaya.


Once a long gust if it could restore Audie's consciousness, there his heart still felt pain after receiving sharp sentences from Xavier's mouth.


Then Audie pressed the bell of her house, she said a very lethargic greeting. Until the door opened wide, there was the worried face of a middle-aged woman.


"Jeez, deck. Where have you been, maghrib just got home?! Why don't you answer Mom's phone, anyway?"


"I'm sorry Audie, Mah. Audie no papa, Mama don't have to worry. Audie just got home from private tutoring." Clear Audie. The woman who played the role of Audie's mother only shook her head, then carried Audie's body into the house.


"Audie wait at the dinner table, Mama make hot chocolate milk first. There's a guest there too, you must be happy for his arrival."


"Guests? Who, Mah?" audie's two eyebrows fused together, rarely did they have guests.


"Audie saw it for herself" after saying that Linda had passed by to make warm milk for her daughter.


Audie immediately headed for the dining room table, even the umbrella in his hand had not been able to put.


"Eh, are you home?" asked Irfan when he saw Audie's arrival.


The woman's reflex next to the young man immediately raised his chin, his manic and Audie's bead met, he pursed his lips while having his chest closed.


A pair of Audie's eyeballs were wide open, he was stunned to not budge when he realized who the guest Linda meant.


'Alea!'
