My Halal Lover

chapter 19

" Come on, baby, wake up! Or do you want me to kiss you and wake up? hmm?"

I jumped to hear Farhan's words. I spontaneously sat facing him. I saw him smile. Hahh, test my faith.

" Listen.I know I'm awesome.don't be shy about admitting it. "

I turned my gaze to the bouquet above the nightstand just to hide my tomato cheeks.

Farhan cupped his hands to my cheeks to make me look straight into his eyes. My eyes locked on Farhan's bead. This time I looked directly at him. All this time, he always threw his face or looked down every time we faced.

" Zeela, you just need to hear my explanation. Don't interrupt a word. .. and please calm your emotions. " He took a deep breath before starting again he said.

" You need to know, I love you. You don't have to doubt that. In fact, since we were very young to know love. Sorry for not being with me first. I'm just making some distance for us. Not because you hate what else is disgusted by your attitude. I just want to take care of you, wouldn't it be better? I refrained from being close to you because ..."

He hung up his sentence, making my kepo levels go up three levels at a time.

"Because I know, after graduating high school, you'll be all mine. Without a courtship that would only lead to adultery, which of course I never expected."

I was stunned to hear Farhan's explanation. Astagfirullah! How foolish it was for me to not understand and wrongly draw conclusions on Farhan's attitude. I am so lost in my stupid love.

" Married young is certainly not what I want even though I love you so much. But, this is the only way not to hurt you any longer. I won't be able to see your disappointed face again, Zeela."

"You still doubt me? hmmm?"

He pulled the nightstand drawer next to us, took the piece of paper I thought was a photo of. Yeah, that's right. It is a photo . There's a picture of me there.

" You remember this? our first meeting. The beginning of this match."

I knitted my eyebrows, a sign of not understanding what Farhan meant.

" Oh, yeah. You were deliberately not told about this match. I don't want you to feel depressed. I want to, we're married because we love each other, not just because of this matchmaking."

If I had not been bound by the promise not to interrupt Farhan's words, I would have made sure he was tired of answering a thousand questions. I'm confused as complicated as this is my story.

" That's why I was transferred to your town and schooled at the same school as you. In fact, it has been arranged so that we are always one class. Not without reason. It's all to grab your attention. And I think I made it, but it turns out you're so aggressive. Uh, no. I mean you're very aggressive."

I swerved towards Farhan . He even smiled mockingly. Well, I just turned my face away . What do you want to do again? He said the facts . I became ashamed of myself if I remembered how my attempt to steal the heart of this ice man was in vain because in fact, he already loved me first.
