Painting Images With Light

Part 43's

The awkward situation in that place, was still going on until some time later.

Neither Citra, neither Bagio nor Leon let out any sound.

The other friends of the image also acted the same, as if no one remembered how to talk to each other.

Even Ody who was communicative, also just fell silent and locked his mouth tightly.

The most striking is Leon, who may be jealous of Bagio, or he just does not like the existence of a Bagio among them.

To the extent that, it felt like Bagio would take Citra away right then and there, because of the sharp gaze from Leon's eyes, which seemed to be able to make a hole in Bagio's face.

Frankly, Bagio did not feel afraid, or intimidated by Leon's movements, Bagio just did not want to make a fuss, especially with people he had just known.

Fortunately, before Bagio ran out of patience to see Leon, who seemed to be challenging him to a fight, Citra had already invited Bagio away from there.

"We go first!" image said to his friends there.

"I'm dating Bagio now, but he's on holiday. We were here, the plan was just to say hello to you. Just understand, right?!" continue to Citra again.

Friends of Citra respond to the words of Citra, just by nodding their heads.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" leon asked, as if holding back Citra to stay there.

"Why indeed? Love us, please!" sahut Citra while standing from his seat, and followed by Bagio who was also standing.

"You go, Cit! ... It's okay." Ody finally made his voice there.

"You must not be comfortable wearing clothes like that, then being in a place as hot as this," continued Ody.

Ody who seemed to help give an excuse, so that Leon stopped fishing for the commotion, also stood up, and seemed to want to take Citra and Bagio away from it.

Without lingering any longer, Citra, Bagio and Ody immediately walked away from there.

"Partner! ... I'm sorry ... I didn't know he was coming here, because I didn't ask him," said Ody, after they were far enough away, from where his friends were sitting.

"It's okay. You don't have to drive us. There is no way he would dare to act further, if there is in a crowd like this" Citra said.

"OKay! I'm back there, huh?! Be careful on the road!" said Ody, then stopped walking, and had time to say hello to Bagio again, saying,

"Bagio! ... It's nice to meet you. I'm sorry, because we met at a bad time."

"Yes. No problem," said Bagio.

Ody then waved his hand towards Citra and Bagio, as he walked back to where his friends had been.

"I'm sorry" Citra said, continuing to walk slowly with Bagio.

"Not supposed to, I brought-bawa—"

Citra's words did not convey everything, because suddenly there were two women who blocked the steps of Bagio and Citra there.

"It's true!" said one of the women, who looked excited.

"Sir! ... Does your sister remember me? Yesterday, I asked to take a picture with big brother here, but big brother has to rush off....

... Can you take a picture with me today?" continued the woman, in a clear voice, while staring at Bagio.

Bagio who was confused to answer what, then looked towards Citra, but Citra then hurriedly said,

"Picture only! Its nothing. I can wait."

"Yes" said Bagio, after looking at the two women, who confronted them again.

With a wide-ranging smile on the faces of the two women, they then got ready to pose, while standing close to Bagio.

The two women then took photos with Bagio alternately, using their respective phones.

Citra, meanwhile, seemed to shift slightly away from the position of Bagio and the two women took pictures, and she waited there, until Bagio and the two women finished taking pictures.

Although Bagio had given the opportunity, so that the two young women could take pictures with them, the women also still took the time to ask for the name of the social media account Bagio.

"Thank you, brother!" said the two women simultaneously, smiling widely, then walked away, after Bagio said, "Together."

Bagio then followed Citra's steps, which seemed to lead to Citra's parked car.

"It's okay. Not a big deal" Citra said, who then stopped walking, because he and Bagio had arrived and stood, near his car.

"I'm the one who hasn't apologized properly, because I've confessed, if you're my girlfriend," continued Citra.

Since they left from where his friends gathered earlier, the look of Citra's face until now seems to have not changed at all.

The image still looked lethargic, in the eyesight of Bagio.

"So a real boyfriend is fine too" said Bagio jokingly, smiling.

Finally Citra could be seen smiling again, and she then said,

"Oohhh! ... So you want to date me? You've started a lot of fans, you know!"

"Yes! Of course I want to be your girlfriend!" sahut Bagio, who still thinks that they are just joking.

The image that lowered its gaze, then nodded its head, as if he was thinking of something.

"OKay! Just so you do not regret it, just in case you meet a woman who is much prettier than me....

... From now on, it means that we are both officially dating," said Citra, who had raised her eyes again, and stared fixedly at Bagio.

"Eh ...? Seriously?" ask Bagio for confusion.

The image of him standing leaning against his car, and face to face with Bagio, then seemed to develop a wide smile on his face.

And suddenly, without cue, Citra then stretched out both hands, until reaching both shoulders of Bagio.

The image then attracted Bagio, getting closer to him, and holding his position still like that.

This time, the distance between Bagio's face and Citra became very close, and even the noses of the two of them almost touched.

What's the matter?

Although panicked, Bagio still tried to look calm in front of Citra, because it seems Citra just wanted to say something to him.

"I like you. How're you? Do you want to be my girlfriend or not?" tanya Citra, whispering in one of Bagio's ears.

"I-I want to be your girlfriend," answered Bagio stammering.

The image then kissed Bagio's cheek at a glance, then said in a whispering voice, saying,

"We can't kiss here. You'll be a gossip, if anyone sees you and recognizes you."

Ckck! ... Is it possible that now, Bagio is dreaming?

As if he was being hypnotized, Bagio who still could not believe what had just happened, just stood there.

Even Bagio did not realize again, if Citra turned around, and opened the car door, then went into it.

"Hey!" The voice of Citra that cried out to him, awakened Bagio from his daydream. "Aren't you coming with me?"

Bagio then hurriedly walked to the other side of the Citra car, and entered into it.

Before Citra inserted her car's gear, to drive away from there, Bagio ventured to ask the woman.

"Partner! ... Are we dating for real?" ask Bagio, who wants to be sure.

The image that turned towards Bagio after Bagio called his name earlier, then seemed to stare at Bagio closely, and delay to drive, even though the car engine was on.

Without saying anything, Citra looked back and forth, as if she were checking the outside around her car, before she looked back at Bagio again.

"here! Get close to here!" said Citra, giving instructions to Bagio.

Bagio tilted his body, until he approached Citra who was sitting in the driver's seat, next to him.

Quickly, Citra also approached Bagio, then kissed Bagio's lips, for some time.

It was clear that Bagio was very surprised by the incident, but Bagio also had to be honest that he enjoyed it.

And it felt, Bagio did not want to stop just like that, even though his knees were shaking violently, and his heart seemed to be able to jump out of his chest.

"Can you believe it now?" ask Citra.
