Love is Not Finished

CHAPTER 32: The Gift

Prita know where I sit here? What did Bram tell you? Through whom?

"Don Zanu! How's things?" said Prita while running small towards me.

"Good Prita. Glad to see you again. You know where I'm from here, Prita?" askaku.

"Sir Resa said. If you ever need a friend to talk to. You are like again in pingit yes Zanu, he.he.he." replied Prita.

"Yes that's so.. This camp just passed by for me. Oiya, have you eaten yet? I'm so hungry, Prita, I haven't eaten in the afternoon,"

"Wow, dinner's not here yet, just hold it. I haven't eaten either. Uh, who's behind you? From just now silent without expression?" ask Prita a little surprised.

"That's the Chief who told him to keep me here. Don't know what it's doing?" answer hence.

"Cool dong! You have a body guard. Also a boy, young, huh?" goda Prita while glancing at her man Bram.

"Ah you! Do you have no guy? There's a lot of Prita guys on campus,"

"I don't have a guy right now. But I like your body guard. I know dong Zanu," Prita's eyes still see the guy.

"If you want acquaintance, through the Chairman only. If I don't know who he is,"

"Later pleasein dong sayin same Chairman yes. Help me Zanu, let me have a guy too. If you're lucky, get the Chief. Where is cute, smart, rich and caring as well as you," said Prita while blushing.

"Look at it later, but I don't promise,"

Prita nodded. Before long, came the senior handing out the packaged rice. Before the bonfire starts, we all have dinner.

Prita took another pack of rice. Turns out he gave it to the guy who took care of me from earlier. Very Naughty Prita.

The guy refused, but somehow the story ended up changing hands.

"Zanu, I've been acquainted, his name is Atif," said Prita looking happy.

"Say you ask to know him through the Chairman? It turned out nyelonong. Dare also yes you Prita directly ask for acquaintance. He's been told not yet our boarding phone number? Let her say, you're running, ha.ha.." I said with a laugh.

"It has. I'll call you right away when this camp ends. Don't know yaa.. He'll call or not. If there is no news, can you ask for help to make nanyain to the Chairman, ha.ha.ha...,"

"Ah thou Prita, shy to know. Already ah! Just do'a hope he'll call you,"

Prita nodded. Prita and I ate rice packs. So did the Atif, who ate, but stayed behind me.

After we finished eating, the senior started handing out snacks and drinks. From afar I saw Bram back with his men. His face looks serious.

He came to me and Prita.

"Zanu, you don't go anywhere, stay close to me, okay!" bram said firmly.

I'm nagging. Prita looked a little surprised to hear Bram's words just now.

Bram ordered his members including Atif to stand guard behind us. Then Bram ordered the seniors to gather all the students near the bonfire.

As usual, Bram gave directions and the contents of the event tonight. There are various anthrax displayed by each tent. The atmosphere is getting more familiar with each other. And so do seniors and students.

The atmosphere tonight looks boisterous, pleasant and sad. After hearing the lecture of one of the seniors, almost everyone who heard immediately cried. Because seniors talk about the struggles of parents who have raised us until we can go to college. I also cry. So remember Papa, Mama and Zuri at home. Hix...

I saw Bram next to me looking ordinary. And it looks a lot quiet. He rarely spoke to me, not as usual.

What happened to Bram? Did he start avoiding me because of what I said? Please Bram, don't fuck me like this..

"Now, wipe away your tears Zanu," said Bram suddenly thrusting a handkerchief at me.

Uh! Turns out he still cares about me.

I took the handkerchief Bram gave me. I remember the same memories. Memories with Brother who gave his handkerchief when I cried.

Yeah.huh..! At that time I was crying because I was talking about the departure of my friend Tito. After that, my brother also left this world. Hix..

My tears are getting bigger. I can't keep wiping my eyes. And Bram was watching me.

Suddenly Bram's fingers wiped away my tears that continued to seep.

"Why are you crying all the time? What else did your parents miss? Never mind, parents will be sad too. I can't see you crying" Bram said in a soft tone.

I immediately stopped my crying. It's nothing, I'm embarrassed to see my friends when Bram rubs my eyes! While Bram looks relaxed as if he does not care about them. Hadeh...

I slowly brushed off Bram's hand. Beside me Prita even messem-mesem see the behavior of Bram just now.

I laughed when I heard Prita's words. Just acquaintance, but Prita's delusion has gone everywhere, ha.ha.ha...

I can't stop laughing. Prita. Bram smiled to see me. Ouch..!

The night is getting late, the last event is a free event. Some eat snacks, tell stories, chat and play the guitar. Some laughed and some kept quiet.

"Zanu, I'm going to the tent first. Want to clean up the goods," said Prita.

"Lho, it could be tomorrow,"

"I'm afraid someone misses Zanu, I'll be here again, okay. Chief, I'm going to the tent first,"

"Yes please Prita," Bram replied while nodding.

Prita went to walk to his tent, so Bram and I were alone. Behind us there are two bodyguards, Bram. They're standing not too close to me and Bram.

I'm a little groggy and deg-degan after Prita left. Moreover, the atmosphere tonight which was lit by a bonfire with a dim light. Duh, so like this real courtship, it's Sunday night.

Bram looked at his watch and he smiled.

"Zanu, why do you look agitated? Are you scared near me?" ask Bram.

"Ng.no. We go home yuk.., it's midnight tonight. I'm afraid" I replied with reason. Though I was scared and nervous to be alone with Bram.

"Ngapain's afraid. There I am here, behind there is a guard and in the field there are still many of your friends. Don't you be afraid of me?" ask Bram.

I shut up and ducked between embarrassment or embarrassment.

Ow hell! Bram wants to do it again? It's like this so it scares me for Bram. Afraid she'll pull my heart out again or she'll do something? Help...!

"Zanu! I got something for you, you know," Bram took something in his jeans pocket.

My heart is getting bigger. I sweat because I'm not used to this kind of atmosphere.

"Look at me for a second,"

I slowly looked at Bram's face, then my eyes saw Bram's eyes. Bram's eyes are beautiful and beautiful.

Yup! Bram's eyes do look beautiful because his eyeballs are different from ours. His eyes are light brown. Just this time I really noticed Bram's eyes.

Behind the dim light of the campfire, I clearly saw Bram's charming face.

"Zanu, happy birthday. May all the best do'a be with you. I have a gift for you" said Bram as he opened the small box in his hand.

OMG! I'm surprised not a bitch! I just found out that today is my birthday.

Where does Bram know?

I was silent unmoved as Bram reached for my hand and immediately paired the ring with his sparkling jewel. Yup! from the light and shape of the ring, it looks expensive.

"This is my first gift. Hopefully later, there's another ring pinned here. The ring that will bind us later. Okay," said Bram softly.

Whoa! What do I have to say to Bram? To see it, my heart is broken. I feel happy tonight.

"Thank you, you remember my birthday. This ring must be expensive, I can't take it Brother," I said because I felt bad, getting a present as good as this.

"That's a new ring. Is it important to see the price? I'm glad I could give you something. Please keep the ring, well,"

I nodded and observed the ring. It just so happened to be the same size as the circumference of my ring finger.

"Zanu, I love you. If I dare to say this is love, I will say it later at the right time. Because I don't want to interrupt your college just yet. Let this relationship run like running water, okay,"

I can only smile and nod. For me it's too soon because I don't want to date. Or having a partner who wants to be serious, is still a long way off.

But I don't want to disappoint Bram and don't want to lose.

Zanu! Just accept Bram to fill your time. Bram also did not dare to mess around. He is kind and watching you.

There is rarely a guy like that Zanu! If you let go, are you sure you can make a change after a few years? Not necessarily!

My heart started to comment and I confirmed.
