Me, What It Is
CHAPTER 31 ~ Second Temptation ~
Nico walked while holding Reana's hand, occasionally the man stared at the girl beside him. The girl returned Nico's gaze with a smile.
Nico's heart is in flow, Reana promises to come to her apartment. With the reason soon to take mid semester, the man asked Reana to teach him the course of Numerical Analysis.
Although hesitant, Reana finally agreed, but with a note, the girl did not want to stay there. Reana also wants to learn some courses that are not understood on Nico.
Usually they discuss lectures in libraries, cafes, parks behind the campus, but with the reason of boredom in that place - it was only Nico finally invited Reana to his apartment.
Reana finally agrees, every day Nico complains of kangen with the atmosphere when Reana in his apartment. A few days of living in Nico's apartment, Nico feels lost because the girl returns to her boarding house.
"Hi dear Nico, just came ?" said the unidentified girl yesterday stopped Reana and Nico.
Nico is shocked, Reana is wide-eyed, this time Reana sees the girl from close range. A sharp nose, clear skin, pliable eyelashes, lips that are always wet. Judging from her shining face, the girl must always get treatment at a famous beauty clinic or expensive salon.
This girl is getting bolder, showing up when me and sister Nico are together, who is she ? does Nico really not know him ? inner Reana.
"Thank you for yes, I will always wait for your arrival" said the girl as she glanced at Reana.
"What are you talking about ?" ask Nico to be confused.
What happened yesterday ? did they meet again ? whispered heart Reana.
"Why be shy ? oooh must be because she is" said the girl glanced back at Reana.
Reana stared in disbelief, the girl teasing Nico right in front of her. Nico looked at Reana with a stare that hinted not to believe the unknown girl's words.
"Hey, I don't know you, don't ever show up in front of me again and never say anything" Nico said, pulling Reana's hand.
The man wanted to take Reana away immediately. Nico doesn't want to serve the girl anymore. Still clearly remembered in his mind how upset he felt when Reana was indifferent to him out of jealousy.
Reana doesn't admit she's jealous but Nico feels it. It's nice to see Reana being jealous because it shows the girl doesn't like Nico being close to another girl.
But Nico is happier if their relationship is happy without anyone interrupting. Especially if you imagine Reana is angry and no longer willing to be persuaded by him, Nico will really panic.
"Well, you must have pretended not to know me because of that girl. I'll meet you when the girl is not next to you." said the girl as she walked by like a catwalk model.
Nico was really upset about facing the woman. But I don't know how to handle it. All he could do was avoid. If it was a man who tried to disturb them, Nico would have already raised a fist towards his face.
"Don't beat her words, she just wants to disrupt our relationship" Nico panicked, staring at the downcast Reana.
Reana was still down, not hearing Nico's words, she was busy with her own bad questions and thoughts. Nico stopped his steps breaking the girl's daydream.
Reana looked blankly at Nico, silent, her expression showing the girl was full of mixed thoughts.
Reana turned to look at her class. At the classroom door Rebecca leaned back while crossing her arms around her chest while smiling sinisterly looking at Reana.
"I went to class first sister" said Reana immediately let go of Nico's hand, hastily the girl ran to her classroom.
Nico calls Reana who suddenly leaves him but the girl ignores him. Reana's focus is just to see Rebecca right away. After standing in front of her, Reana immediately pulled Rebecca into the empty classroom.
"It must be you, right ? that girl is the one you sent to bother Nico, right ? you planned all this, right ?" reana asked with a voice that grew higher.
Rebecca laughed out loud, her face showing great pleasure. Reana's expression that showed anger, confusion, sadness and annoyance was very pleasant for Rebecca to see.
Rebecca was as if looking at herself who often experienced such mixed feelings. And now it was Reana who experienced and felt that feeling.
The feeling she often felt as Reana appeared before her and distracted Nico from her.
"No, I don't know the girl" she replied so casually, and Reana looked in disbelief.
"Lying, this must be you, because I can't accept my statement not to let go of Nico's sister again to you" Reana reminded Rebecca when returning the room rent.
Rebecca laughed again.
"Why ? panic ? didn't you say yourself that Nico's sister likes a lot.
It could be that the girl is one of the girls who ran towards Nico's sister.
While you're waiting for me, aligning your steps to ask me, who's the girl who's trying to catch up with Nico ?" rebecca said with a laugh.
Rebecca continued with her talk.
"Or now you're trying to elbow me, thinking I'm still your opponent.
Honestly, I am more supportive of the girl than you, like fashion, the girl is a famous boutique dress while you are just a pair of jeans" whispered Rebecca as she passed out of class.
I've changed, I've changed like Rebecca, mom, I just want to go to college quietly, Reana thought.
I never got close to Nico's sister, I always wanted to get away from her, she was the one who always came to me, and now, I'm like the one who's so afraid of losing her, just like Rebecca, I'm afraid of losing her, reana's screams in my heart.
"Reana, please don't listen to the girl, she's lying, I don't have anything to do with her, I don't know the girl, really" said Nico, who had been sitting next to Reana, stroking the girl's hair.
Reana got up slowly, looking at Nico's face.
"You just need to trust me" Nico continued again as he looked into the girl's eyes with a gentle look.
Reana looked at the man's face.
I do not doubt you brother Nico, I only regret myself, I have changed, I do not realize myself has changed so far, because.
The girl was still staring at Nico, while the man let Reana think about his words, Nico tried to make the girl believe him.
"I believe Brother Nico" Reana said softly, smiling at the man.
Nico tidied up the strands of hair that covered Reana's eyes while smiling.
But humans can change, if teased continuously, can brother Nico survive ? reana asked in her heart, the girl just looked into Nico's eyes like she was looking for an answer.
"The only thing I want is you" Nico half-whispered.
"Don't care about anything, don't believe anything, what you hear, what you see, you just have to trust me, believe in my heart" Nico continued.
Reana nodded, the students had started to arrive. Nico was ready to go to his class. Reana looked at Nico's back who was walking away.
I'm here, Nico's sister, I can't reach you, all I can do is wait for you to come to me, whispered Reana.
Nico walks to her class, her heart is upset, even though Reana says she believes him, but the presence of the unknown girl will always disturb Reana's heart. Nico doesn't want that to happen, Reana's life has been too difficult to accept other problems.
"Nic, who is that girl?" ask Rommy.
Rommy asked her best friend in class.
"This is the second time, do not say you do not know" said Dito.
"That's exactly what I want, there's no way I've ever seen that girl where ? where have we met him ? is she a student here or not ?" ask Nico confused.
"No, positively no, if there is a girl like that in college here, I, may not not not know, I may not forget" Ardi chimed.
"What is the purpose ?" ask Nico slowly as if talking to himself.
"This is her hard to have a handsome face, so the handsome was divided, so bothered, seduced by the mulu chick, want to be calm and happy with her beloved Reana, eeehh even disturbed" continued Ardi, always bewit.
Nico glared at Ardi, who was glared at even giggling.
"That's called karma bro" Dito chimed in.
"Whenever we meet girls, at the end of the day choose loe, whenever we like girls, girls want to be made ama loe" continued Dito.
"Loe does not give a solution, anyways you want to acquaintance with a girl to do ngajak me" denied Nico did not want to be blamed.
"Loe is like a fisherman's lamp, the fish gather in the light source, if the light source is not there, the fish also did not come" Ardi analogy, making Rommy and Dito laugh, Nico still sewot.
Actually Ardi, Rommy and Dito are not ugly, they look even above average. Rommy despite wearing glasses but his face is sweet like a young executive, Dito has a natural athletic body since birth, he looks also not inferior to Korean boyband personnel.
Likewise with Ardi even though the most beautiful, this one man actually becomes a magnet for girls, his humorous and easy to like nature, white face, a sweet smile and a hairstyle that is always cool.
But the charm of Nico is indeed invincible, just sitting quietly doing nothing, has made the girls busy repairing their makeup.
"Don't worry Nic, we'll always give understanding ama Reana, if you don't cheat, because you only have him" Rommy's words try to calm his best friend.
"But how if the girls come to tease you continue, fear you are not strong imaan" asked Ardi teasing.
"This is not the first time Nico seduced girls, only during this time there is no Reana, so we do not take a headache" said Dito.
"Well, really, all of this depends on you, keep resisting temptation as before and Reana does not need to doubt the loyalty of loe" concluded Rommy.
The support from his friends made Nico a little relieved. The man hoped the unknown girl would not appear in front of him again. Hopefully there are no more obstacles that hinder the happiness of Nico and Reana.
