Neighbor Becomes Husband

Eps 7 Take Care

Kharis stood waiting in the second-floor corridor in front of his lecturer's room while leaning against the wall, there were no chairs there. Mr. Martin is giving thesis guidance, there are two students, and it's been a while. Kharis remembered Levi was waiting. He picked up the phone in the bag and sent a message.

✉ Old msh kak kyknya. Kk plng, Kharis gpp.

📩 Gpp is also waiting for you, relax aja 😀😉

So sweet, someone kindly wants to wait. Kharis smiled, amused himself with thoughts that flashed, like this it felt like having a girlfriend of the time yes. Unfortunately, he belongs to someone else. His smile faded with breaths.

Before long the door opened, the guidance was completed Kharis's turn now. Mr. Martin did not like pleasantries, so only a few moments Kharis in the room gave up his duties, after thanking him he came out.

The parking lot for the lecture activities this semester has been completed. From a distance he recognized Levi's car the step he was pointing to it. Like there was a little thump now in his chest, the touch of Levi just a moment ago still left. Honestly he liked the way Levi treated him earlier, but there was fretting too, feeling unworthy and unworthy.

Just a few steps a shout from behind called out his name. Kharis' head turned around looking for the origin of the sound. Lucas, half-running came closer.

"Khar, the business with Mr Martin already?"

"Yes, thank goodness. Thank you, Luc."

"My job, don't thank everyone..."

"I just wanted your WA earlier, uh look at you going down the stairs. The task of MK Miss Rosa is to be done, awaited this week.

"Seriously?" Kharis doesn't believe me

"Yes, seriously, there are 11 students who have no assignment scores including you. That's why he gave me a chance. Rarely, again kind-hearted him. The title is different anyway, wait for me to see in WA."

Lucas took his phone and then swiped the screen. An impatient Kharis approached and looked at Lucas' phone. Long sliding, like some groggy standing near Kharis. They looked at each other for a moment. Lucas immediately turned his eyes, swiping again. Kharis laughing.

"Hehehe... Where's?"

"Behold, again sought..."

Lucas grimaced, forgetting whose chat name to open.

"Now, meet..this is the title..."

Lucas puts his phone in Kharis's hands.

After reading the contents of the chat, Rosa Kharis said...

"I'll go to my number, Luc..."

He raised his head to look at Lucas for approval, after getting a nod of the head, Kharis continued to chat Bu Rosa, and returned the head of the class.

"Thank you, Luc. So much good for me this time... Mr. Martin who usually judges fierce, just a smile he squirms at me...."

Kharis laughed happily.

"You're too sweet to ignore..."

Answering quietly in an ambiguous Lucas smiles knotty and stares at Kharis intensely.

"Hahaha. stale times Luc. I came home yes, it was awaited."

Kharis pointed at the white car in front of them.

"Who?"

Lucas looked towards the car in question.

"Sister Levi. Ok yes. see you."

Kharis waved his hand as he stepped.

The levi? Wh who? A boyfriend? Lucas stared at the back of the sweet girl he had been looking for since that first semester. Three years together, Kharis, Queen, Delanno and Lucas themselves, the four of them are often suspected lovers by friends, Lucas and Kharis, Delanno and Queen. But that's it, the 6th semester is over just waiting for KHS, many times Lucas expressed his feelings only responded with jokes. It's better to be friends not burdened, according to Kharis.

Disappointed there but maybe he became accustomed to the phrase friends so disappointment is always treated by the sincerity of Kharis. He was also tired of trying and welcoming the friendship option Kharis offered and was comfortable with their status at least the girl did not keep her distance. That was enough until just a moment ago, when the name Levi was called...

"Sorry brother, long time.hehe."

Kharis cupped his hands together in front of his chest.

"Yes, long time."

"Sorry, I'm sorry..."

"Haha..."

Levi laughed at the innocent look on Kharis' face. He reached out his hand towards the girl's right cheek and rubbed gently with the back of his index finger.

Feeling the touch of the hand again, Kharis became a baper. The more here the sweeter the treatment of his foot. May not he have this feeling, comfortable and happy, warm and vibrating, even though both hands feel cold and pounding felt in the chest.

"Kidna... I'm happy to be able to do something for you." said Levi still with a laugh and then run the white Jazz.

Kharis fixed the direction of his back leaning perfectly on the seat of the car and facing straight ahead. He was leaning on the left end of the car seat tilting his body toward Levi as he apologized. Slowly he took a breath, neutralizing his heart and face that was carried away by the sweet atmosphere earlier.

Silent in his reasoning about Levi, bits and pieces of Levi's closeness to those he knew flashed through his head. How Levi treated Melva, Frelly, who else ya, a lot. This last Peggy, even more than Kharis got earlier. Yeah, Levi's a typical flamboyant guy maybe.

The words of Mr. Max lecturer in Communication Psychology in the 5th semester are still recorded in memory: "If the ratio is above then the emotion will fall, on the contrary if the emotion above then the ratio below."

"So Kharis.let's be rational aka don't baper, take care of your heart. If he cares about you, gives you attention, a little affection, it's not something special, it doesn't mean that he likes you either..."

Kharis steadied his heart that had been slightly tempted to hope for more.

"We'll eat first..."

"Sister, can I just go home?"

Kharis did not want to extend the relationship with Levi today. The longer we stay together the more it happens. Before the physical contact, he felt comfortable, but his instincts said he should avoid it now. Not good for him and for his heart. It's a little hard to keep your heart still in the same atmosphere.

"Why, you're not hungry, it's lunchtime..."

Levi looked away from the road several times and looked at Kharis who was eager to find a reason to refuse.

"Mmm. My head hurts."

Finally the classic reason came out. Kharis glanced and found a worried look on Levi's face.

"Ok we go home... Can still be arrested right?"

Levi said attentively. His left hand was stretched out again this time his palm was affixed to his forehead. This is what should be avoided. Kharis slightly rewinded his head trying to remove the palm patch.

"Kharis is just a headache, maybe cape."

"Sleep aja..."

"Yes, thank you brother."

All the way home, there was no sound between them. Kharis felt tired, his physique and especially his heart. What happened today was something beyond his reach. It is at least not denied the reality that he enjoys their togetherness, different when he is with Lucas or Lanno. With Levi it seemed like the empty space in his heart was filled with the voice, laughter, jokes, even the affection of a Levite. But the other side of his heart felt restless, feeling stupid for being carried away by something that was not his right.

The car stopped, Kharis opened his eyes and straightened his body. He looked at her with that always charming smile. Kharis returned that smile.

"Rest, yes..."

"Thank you so much for today. Kharis troubling sister. God bless yes..."

"My pleasure..."

Out of the car door Kharis smiled again and stepped into his house. Somehow he had to behave to Levi after this day...
