ONE SUMMER NIGHT'S

ONE SUMMER NIGHT'S
What is he, his lover?



"Sir Dex?"


"What are you doing here, soaking wet?" dex asked, quickly removing the coat he was wearing to cover both sides of Sea's shoulders, removing the plastic and hat he was wearing and tidying up Sea's hair before pulling his hand to stand up. Ignore the stare-eyed Ruel, as Dex continued to grip the girl's palm tightly without letting go.


Sea looked at Ruel with a sad feeling that made him instantly breathless, even his tongue suddenly groaned to the point of not being able to say anything, he also has no words to say to the man now, either explaining to him who Dex is, and what the relationship is between him and Dex.


Can't even say if the man who now holds his palm tightly is the man who will marry her in a moment, even if he doesn't love the man in the least, I don't want to marry and live with that man. However, Sea did not have the strength to resist, even though his decision would hurt Ruel's feelings, the only man who could make his heart pound.


I'm sorry, Ruel. What if you forget me. I'm not the girl you should like.


Sea tightened his hand grip, trying to hold tightness in the heart to make his body tremble withstanding pain.


"Your body shivers in the cold, you can get sick. Get in the car, we go home now" Dex said.


"Wait," and Ruel stood before them.


"What's wrong? Are you guys together?" asked Dex to look at Ruel.


He knew they were together since. Dex could even see as they stood on the library porch, seeing how they were so close, throwing laughter at each other when talking about things, running around together with hands that clasped tightly together while laughing happily. Although all of that is enough to hurt Dex who is basically in love with Sea, but he knows if only he has to refrain from doing anything so that everything is fine. However, this time he could no longer hold back his jealousy.


"Who is he?" he said he hoped Sea would answer him honestly. Although not wanting to hear an answer that might hurt his heart.


"He's one of the students I'm teaching."


"A student?" dex's brows frowned, still staring at Ruel in disbelief.


How could Sea treat a student so special. Sea could even smile and laugh freely at the man, and never did the same with him. Even to the point of neglecting his health for the sake of being with the man.


"You shouldn't let it rain like this, because it's bad for the body ...."


"Sir Dex, enough," cut off Sea, before turning his gaze back towards Ruel who was just silent in confusion. "We go home, we go" he continued.


"Sister Sea. Wait," call Ruel. "Don't go" he continued, who was ignored by Sea.


Even without saying anything, Sea immediately walked away. Stepping to the side of Dex who directly embraces his shoulders is a little interesting to be docked in his body to avoid rainwater. Until within seconds, Dex's car was seen moving away leaving Ruel who was still standing with mixed feelings. Between sad, angry and disappointed, wondering inwardly, who was the man who took Sea away, the man who even clasped his hands and embraced Sea. And what makes Ruel even worse is the Sea who does not refuse in the slightest, even to the point of ignoring him.


Is he ... his girlfriend? No, it's impossible.


Don't you know if I like you? You know how I feel about you, but what are you doing now? Why ignore me so. What's wrong with you?Why do you just shut up when the man grabs you and embraces you? Brother Sea .. You hurt me, you make me jealous almost crazy.


Ruel increased the speed of the bike. Within minutes, he could see Dex's car slowing down as it passed through the compound, and stopping in front of a towering fence that opened slowly before entering the yard. Likewise with Ruel who came down from the bike, too, about to follow to meet Sea before his footsteps stopped at the end of the gate when he accidentally saw the figure of a stranger there who was none other than Vincent.


The man who had been his sworn enemy, the man he did not like and who was obviously the man who might hate him so much. The man who is currently standing in front of the terrace to welcome Sea and Dex, not even Vincent's figure that makes Ruel very surprised. However, also the figure of Eden, his own brother who stood beside Vincent, even shook Dex's hand and smiled warmly to the two. What a sight that hurt the feelings of Ruel, feeling stupid for not knowing anything about the Sea.


That guy? Is he ... Sea's sister?


Ruel retreated his steps slowly. Still watching until they are not seen there.


No way, that man couldn't possibly be Brother Sea, no ....


Ruel walked towards his bike and immediately left the place with many questions that were now filling his head. Thinking of Vincent and Dex makes it all the more uncaring.


Is that why you helped me out that night and found a hiding place, is it because the one who was chasing me was your brother? Then why don't you tell me anything.


He can't even think clearly anymore because of his anger at himself. Increasingly accelerate the speed of the motor with a split focus, up to a few seconds later.


Brakes....


Motor Ruel hit the sidewalk until it was dragged far away, and he himself who bounced and dragged along, ended up lying in the middle of the road that afternoon was quite quiet. No other motorists or pedestrians passing because of the rain that is still falling, even more intense.


Who are you, Miss Sea ....


Ruel closed in tightly to endure the pain, before reopening his eyes. Staring at the dark afternoon sky, let the details after the clear grains plunge his face that began to turn pale.


Looks like the rainbow won't show up, the rain won't even stop.


The man returned to his mouth, not intending to move on and just lay there with his feelings getting sicker. And it was fortunate that the single accident that he had experienced did not cause severe injuries on his body, even the pain in his body was defeated by the pain in his heart at this moment.


I'm hurt, blisters everywhere. Does that worry you enough? You don't want to see me hurt, do you? But, I am injured now, Brother Sea .. not only my body but my heart. Are you still gonna care about me?
