Love Blocks the Past

CHAPTER 73 ~ Meet Again ~

Celine offers the children to study at her home. They welcomed the offer. The next day they came to Celine's house. Study together on the side porch of the house overlooking the orchard. Suddenly a handsome man came and directly reprimanded Celine.

"Oh, so this is the beautiful teacher who has taken my students?" ask a man.

Celine raised her face looking at the smiling man looking at her. The man stood up by folding both his hands on his chest while smiling insinuatingly as if he were spotting someone who was doing wrong. Celine felt that the man was like a familiar person.

"You? Not that you .. ah what his name is, ah I forgot. Anyway, who wants to be my guide to the top of the mountain at that time, right?" ask Celine.

"That's true, but .. how will you teach the students if you yourself are forgetful" the man replied.

"What do you mean?" ask Celine.

"Not long ago I said my name now you've forgotten–"

"I don't forget but I don't care, after all, why should I know your name?" ask Celine.

"To this day," the man replied and Celine immediately whined.

"By the way you don't let me sit down. What kind of teacher is this? No manners" said the man.

"Who is the teacher?" ask Celine.

"You! Aren't you the one who offered the kids that they'd study with you beautiful teacher?" ask the man.

"Haaa .. who said it?" celine asked immediately turning her head to the children covering their mouths holding back a laugh.

"What do you say that ?" celine asked the kids.

"Sir teacher nanya, why not come back to Mr. Devan's house to learn more. Then we replied that we were studying in a beautiful teacher's house" replied a girl.

"Why say that?" ask Celine shyly.

"Because you don't know the name of the beautiful teacher's sister" replied the other girl.

"But why is she called the pretty teacher of all?" celine asked back embarrassedly.

"And the brother who asked" said a boy.

"Haaa, when? Don't you guys talk about it?" celine asked directly closer and tickled the child.

The children laughed in agility, Celine chasing the scattering child running between the gardens. Devan sat with his chin up and looked at those who were running. Tired of not being able to catch up, Celine returned to the side porch of the house threateningly.

"Yes, I will not give you any more fruits!" he pretended to sulk.

"What kind of teacher it is, easy to sulk and like to threaten" said Devan.

"What kind of teacher is this? Not having manners has not been told to sit, has been playing sitting," said Celine while shaking her waist in front of Devan.

Devan, who was not yet welcome to sit down, immediately stood before Celine. The girl was shocked for making Devan and Celine stand so close to her. The girl immediately backed off. There was the sound of laughter from the students who saw them almost scattered.

Celine immediately turned her head in the other direction, as did Devan. They looked very awkward with their cheeks that were blushing red. A few moments later, Devan was finally able to control himself.

"Then may I sit down .. Beautiful teacher?" ask Devan.

"Sit down!" said Celine who also returned to her position earlier.

"Are the kids learning or not?" devan asked as if to himself while looking at the children who actually ran around in the garden.

"Oh that, they are 6th grade students, because soon they will take the National Exam they are asked to increase their learning hours," explained Devan.

"Then you have to study in your house, they say your house is very far away. Doesn't it pity to see those who go that far? Why don't you go to school" Celine asked.

"Ke school is also far away, besides the pity that after going home from school immediately learn again. So we let them go home, rest, eat first in the new house and then go to study again" Devan explained.

Celine nodded in understanding then turned to the children who were playing. Sometimes the girl laughed at the children. While Devan just glanced at the lyrics. Celine who felt glanced at the man pretended not to know.

Devan? I heard his name recently, but where? Her face also felt familiar, Inner Celine wondered.

If you look around like you have known but the more remembered and even more forgotten, Devan's mind.

"Ah Devan!"

"Celine!"

"You're Devan who used to be in family gathering?" ask Celine.

"Yes right, means you're really Celine? His daughter's President Director?" ask Devan.

"Oh my goodness, I haven't seen you in a long time" Celine said with a laugh.

"Ah yes, since Junior High has rarely come along, Papa. You were also the last to still Junior High, right?" ask Devan.

Celine nodded, they did not expect that they would meet again after such a long time. Celine just remembered that Erica recently mentioned the name Devan. The man was shocked when he heard Celine mention Erica by name.

"You guys still meet?" ask Devan.

"We were in High School but during school in the same place, I didn't realize it was him" Celine said.

"What does that mean?" ask Devan.

"He changed his face. I guess if you meet her, you will definitely not know her either" Celine said in a sad tone. 

Remembering Erica, the girl also remembered the girl's brother, Yodi. The girl's heart became sad and visible on the look on her face. Devan saw the sadness.

"You still have a grudge against him?" ask Devan.

"What?"

"What's your hair and gum problem?" ask Devan.

"Oh yeah, I was still vengeful at first, but not anymore. He even lives in our house. I just found out that the guy who was putting the gum on as a kid was a friend who was familiar with it at High School. I also just found out that it's all because of you" said Celine, looking straight ahead.

"I know! Because of what I said, he got mad at you" Devan said.

"Your words? What's your word?" ask Celine.

"Celine is pretty, I love Celine."

The girl was flabbergasted, as she remembered back then Devan was an idol among the company's employee children. When he met Celine, the man was immediately clingy to her. Wherever they play, whatever rides they want to play, they always do together.

Celine and Devan are allowed to play together by their parents. As if they liked and were being matched. Devan who really likes Celine is so happy to be close to the good and beautiful girl.
