That afternoon Zea fell asleep on the bed after previously rolling back and forth because she was happy.
When she woke up, Zea realized it was late afternoon. The clock on his phone shows 4:30. A message came in from David.
A message
Brother David :
📲 :"If I may like to walk an afternoon with you by the beach."
"What?" zea's response screamed at the contents of the message from David. This rare opportunity was unlikely to be wasted by Zea.
Send a message
You :"By brother, half an hour meet in the lobby how?"
A message came in
Brother David: "Byeah, I'll wait in the hotel lobby."
Zea stands on a mattress eagerly jumping to jump realizing she will be walking her way with David.
Zea immediately persuaded the bathroom to clean up. After finishing the bath and changing, Zea chose to wear clothes that were not so flashy. Black shirt with black hat.
Zea walked into the lobby to meet David who was sitting on the sofa while playing his cellphone.
"Sister?" call Zea.
"Zeze," answered David turning towards the source of the voice.
David felt anxious about the appearance of Zea who impressed like a tomboy but worried.
"Why brother? My clothes are weird, aren't they?"
"No, I'm just amazed there are girls who want to wear clothes without having to choose to choose."
"I wear it because it's comfortable, and I don't carry a lot of clothes anyway."
"That's more than enough Ze, you're beautiful for who you are" David said.
Zea felt weak with that compliment. Zea smiled broadly without being able to control her expression which was like a person in a kasmaran.
"Then let's go" called David to break Zea's daydream.
"Come brother."
The two of them then walked side by side towards the beach. Zea's footsteps halted because she felt her hat was uncomfortable.
David looked over because Zea stopped and asked.
"Why Ze?"
"Hair's messy so his hat's uncomfortable."
"Hm should I fix it?"
"Don't brother, I can do it myself."
After fixing his hat, Zea and David again continue their steps towards the beach.
*****
The Beach
The waves roared in his ears like whispers beckoning. The color gradation of the twilight sky and the blue sea is very beautiful to see. I don't know why the beach feels so empty. There's only David and Zea there.
"It's so beautiful, brother."
"You likey?"
"Like it very much."
"Thank God then."
"Do you want to walk in the sand next door, brother?"
"Why should I ask? Anytime where I can do it, I'll be behind you."
Zea was touched to hear David's thoughtful remarks.
"Thank you brother."
"Yes Ze, it's there if you're a toy," said David.
Zea played in the sand like a child. Run around, play water and write in the sand.
"Sister, look at this," Zea said, calling David, pointing towards the slightly shallow sea. There was a small fish swimming.
"Funny, brother."
"Heem gems rich you," said David innocently.
Zea was ashamed to hear David's words and again her face turned red.
"Why red Ze cheeks," asked David teasingly.
"Emm gatau nih," said Zea embarrassed immediately turned her face and ran small.
David goes after Zea and catches her. In Zea's soft hands.
"Ze don't run down" said David still holding Zea's hand.
"I'm very careful brother."
"Wanna sit?" ask David.
"Come on."
Zea led the way and let go of David's hand. David's heart was a little disappointed that Zea let go of his hand.
"Sit here Ze," asked David who was standing behind the swing.
"David's brother sits next to me."
"So, you're sitting down."
"Yes, David has swallowed" said Zea, giving a new call to David.
"Huh? Gweelan?" david said surprised by the new name of Zea.
"Yups, gnaw."
"Yes, sit here and help me push."
"Thank you brother, push tight huh brother hehe."
"Aren't you afraid of falling?"
"No fear, just ordinary."
"Okedeh, Ze I'd like to ask."
"What brother?" zea answered while looking back.
"Do you like Eka?"
"Huh? The eka? Why David nanya's brother," murmured Zea in the heart.
" Not really."
"Related?"
"I'm sure you don't like Eka."
"Okay, there's a guy you like?"
For a moment Zea fell silent at David's question. Think about what he should answer, be honest or lie. If he lies he will miss the opportunity to express his feelings but if honestly David could not have the same feelings. Zea's feelings were mixed when it came to choosing between being honest or lying.
"Why silence Ze? Is there?"
"Yes there is a brother."
"Oh," replied David casually.
In fact, it hurts David inside to remember that Zea already has someone she likes. Maybe David should bury the hope of being close and express his feelings for Zea.
"Our High School boy too?"
"Yes, brother."
"Oh what class?"
"One level above me, brother."
"That means one generation to me" David guessed.
"Heem."
"Who's Ze?"
"There are good people, cold but considerate."
"You're amazed as much as Ze."
"Obviously brother, he's a real master in all fields, brother. Sangar lah anyway, bang jago," said Zea
David is increasingly resigned to knowing that Zea seems to like the person very much. From the way he expressed his opinion about that person it was obvious that Zea greatly admired the person.
"Have you tried to talk about Ze?"
"What's brother, by the way?"
"Like him?"
"Not yet, how many months have you known yourself too soon to say you like your brother."
"Why Ze? He likes you too, rich girl you must love Ze."
"Oh yeah, what about David's brother?"
"meaning?"
"Can I like it?"
"Like."
"Boong certainly, David's classmate is the richest brother Jenni what Oliv or Lisa is the beautiful who firmly hold that fame," zea replied that he did not sincerely match the person he liked to other women.
Zea then bowed and felt her spirit drop drastically to the point where she was no longer willing to discuss the matter.
David realized that Zea, who had arrived, was bowed, and then stood in front of Zea. Take a squatting position facing Zea.
"Ze, I like you. Sorry before, I just found out you have someone you like today but if I don't tell you now maybe tomorrow you're someone else's," obviously David with a serious, sincere and meaningful look.
The heart of Zea dag-dig-dug. For a moment his chest tightened, like something was tickling there. He is well aware that he is happy to hear David's confession, but confused to answer it. His tongue was mute, and Zea was silent. Only the look on her face was clear that Zea was embarrassed. His face flushed, his heart pounding. Either way David could hear Zea's heartbeat.
A moment of silence without a sound. David just looked at Zea fixedly without taking his eyes off in the slightest and vice versa. The rumbling waves were unable to awaken them from the turmoil of the feeling.
