58. Forced to stay

Heavy rain began to wet the earth Kintamani. Bella and Typhoon who were enjoying coffee outside the cafe building also moved and took shelter in the cafe, along with people who were sitting outside the cafe building.

"The rain is without warning, it's just rushing," complained Bella while wiping her long hair that was hit by raindrops.

Typhoon just smiled and looked at Bella carefully. People who enter the cafe to shelter more and more. Until someone nudges Bella, which makes the girl pushed to hit the body of the Typhoon. Bella looked at the Typhoon with a embarrassed face. Just as Bella was about to keep her distance back, the typhoon's hand held Bella's body to remain in her arms. Bella was silent, she looked up and looked at Typhoon's face that looked indifferent, but Typhoon's hands continued to be on her waist.

Bella doesn't try to let go of Typhoon's embrace. With hesitation, he returned the hug by slipping his cold hand behind the Typhoon jacket, and tightly hugged the man's waist. This time, the Typhoon felt awkward. He who initially wanted to look indifferent, now saw Bella who lay her head on the Cyclone's chest. The heart of the Typhoon is beating fast. To make his chest look up and down because his breath began to hunt.

"God, can you stop this time?" Inner Typhoon. The Typhoon's hands grew tighter and tighter around Bella's waist. Same with Bella. He tightened his hands and enjoyed the heartbeat of the man he was holding.

"Cold huh?" Ask a stale Typhoon.

Bella just nodded in the arms of Typhoon. Then, they went back to silence and saw the street outside the cafe which was flooded with rain.

The hour hand on the cafe's wall was already showing at half-seven p.m. But the rain did not stop. Bella felt tired, finally she chose to sit on one of the empty benches that her people had chosen to leave the cafe. While the Typhoon, stand still, and allow others to sit together with bella on the bench of the table.

"It's raining, how are we?" Bella asked with an anxious face.

"Wait a minute. How do you know, it will rain. We rush back to Kuta" said Typhoon, trying to calm Bella down.

Bella pursed her chin and looked at the Typhoon with a different look. Why was it different, this time the girl looked at the Typhoon with a look that looked spoiled. Like the gaze of a lover upon his man.

Typhoon smiled, then he ventured to rub Bella's cheeks reddened by the cold air.

"Prophey, yes" said the Typhoon.

Degggg...!

This time, Bella's heartbeat was really like the beat of a time bomb that was about to explode. So fast and irregular. He kept staring at the man who looked just as agitated as he was.

"Did I really love him? Since when?" Bella was stunned, her gaze continued to focus on the Typhoon that looked cold.

"Well.no. I'm not in love with him. Just plain," Bella tried to argue with her heart.

"Yes, only a few days he changed his appearance, and I immediately liked him. Stupidddd....! Nooooo!" Bella tried so hard to lie to her heart.

"It's seven o'clock non, if it hasn't subsided too, how about it?" The cyclone looked at Bella closely. Which made Bella feel awkward and averted her eyes from earlier to keep looking at the man.

"It doesn't know..." Bella Sahut.

The typhoon was silent, when forced back after the rain had subsided, which either way they would arrive in Kuta at midnight. While traveling so far and riding a motorcycle, it is quite dangerous.

Second by second, minute by minute. The rain did not stop. They have been in the cafe for too long. While the rain was getting heavier, as if it did not allow them to return to Kuta.

Typhoon glances at the clock on the cafe wall. The hour hand shows at 20:15 minutes. Typhoon let out a long sigh and looked back at Bella who looked tired and started to fight her drowsiness.

"Are you looking for lodging?" Typhoon Mumbles.

Typhoon walked to the cashier, he asked the cashier, about the lodging around the cafe. The cashier also informed Typhoon, a beautiful place to stay, which is 2 kilometers from the location of the cafe. The typhoon was excited, he thanked the cashier and went back to Bella.

"Non," The typhoon touched the girl's hand, which made Bella who was almost asleep, jerked with a touch of the Typhoon's hand that felt cold on the skin of her hand.

"Yes?"

"How about we just stay the night. We'll book two rooms."

Bella looked at the Typhoon closely. Trying to consider the proposal of the man.

"Non, we don't know until when it rains. If we force it to go home. Arriving at the hotel was already midnight. Anyway, we'll be soaking wet non. I'm afraid, if the non-sick because of the rain and cold, "Light of the Typhoon.

Bella bit her lips and was followed up with a doubtful nod from her.

"So?" Typhoon asked, trying to confirm Bella's decision.

"Yes, stay the night" Bella said.

"alright. But wait for the rain to stop, no."

"Oh, I see, all right," Typhoon moved in front of Bella and asked the cafe staff for two large plastic bags to protect their shoes and bags. After their shoes and bags were secured, they broke through the torrent of rain to go to the hotel shown by the cafe employee.

On the street, the rain soaked their clothes. The cold air seemed to pierce to their bones. Bella had no other choice but to hug the Typhoon tightly while on a motorcycle driven by the Typhoon. As Bella's hand coiled around the Typhoon's waist. Typhoon was groggy, he looked at Bella's hand for a moment, and refocused on the streets.

Finally, the motorcycle that Typhoon drove arrived at a simple and beautiful inn. They were greeted by an inn employee who carried the theme of the village in a friendly manner and drove them to the reception desk which looked very simple.

"I'm sorry if the floor is wet" Bella said.

"It's okay ma'am, we'll mop." Officers delivered Bella and Typhoon to the reception desk.

Thank you, yes" Bella said with a friendly smile.

"Good night, wanna stay over?" Ask the receptionist.

"Night, yes mbak. Is there an empty room?" Ask Typhoon.

"There is a father, but only one room remains,"

The deggggg!

Bella and Typhoon looked at each other.

"Who are you checking in on whose behalf?" Ask the woman in her 20s.

"For a moment, you know," Typhoon led Bella away from the reception desk.

"Non, the room is one. How's it?"

Bella was silent. He doesn't know how to.

"Are we looking for another hotel?" Ask the Typhoon again.

"What in the other hotel guarantees there's a room?" Ask Bella.

"Hmmm, let's just check it's non."

"Hmmm, okay," Bella said.

The typhoon returned to the reception desk and apologized if they did not rent a room. They stepped out and asked the hotel attendant,

"Bli, how many more kilos are there from here?" Ask Typhoon.

"Oh, there's. five kilo meters from here bli. But, we also do not guarantee, if there are empty rooms. This is the holiday season. Suppose there is, maybe a villa that is over eight million a night.

Typhoon swallowed his salivary. He seemed to be thinking of leaving the inn.

"How about non?" Ask Typhoon.

"Mmmm..."

Jegeerrrr...! Lightning strikes, the rain is getting heavier. It was as if the sky was angry.

"Astaghfiullah!" Bella's screams were frightened by the sound of lightning.

"It's just here!" Bella turned to the reception desk and immediately pulled out her identification card.

"Non but...." Typhoon approaches Bella and tries to prevent her.

"Gue doesn't want ya, to a lightning strike and die silly. Just stay here!"

"But the room is one non, then I sleep where,"

"Sleep with me!"

Degggg...! And silence....
