Play your guitar Sophie
It feels warm
“Damn !” Hardin swore loudly while opening the clear lid of his helmet. He checked if there was a car behind us and then turned the bike to the left very quickly, faster than before hunting the blue bike.
“Hardin, no need to pursue !” I screamed while holding her waist tighter, but she wasn't gubris. I understand that he's angry. But he should have understood that he was piggybacking on a girl. I guess, this is not how to treat a girl whose hair is morat – Marit got wind of the road.
“Hardin, you heard what not ?!” Hardin still runs his bike like a racer who is competing in the arena. “Not to be chased, slow – just slow !”
“She should be taught Sophie lessons !” his voice could hardly be heard in between – by the roar of the wind. Hardin's motor now runs right next to the blue motor earlier.
“Stop you !” hardin said as he raised his right hand. The guy's face on the blue bike looked terrified but he didn't want to stop. In fact, accelerating the speed of the motor which was immediately followed by Hardin.
“Damn ! Stop you !” while his hand was trying to grab the jacket the guy was wearing. Want – do not want, the blue motor stopped.
Hardin took off his helmet immediately gave a punch to the guy who had not even had time to open his helmet. The guy staggered to fall to the ground but soon Hardin caught the neck of his shirt. Hardin's hands clenched to hit him again. I grabbed his hand high above me,
“Hardin ... what to do ? Let's go. I'm fine – what. Your bike is also totally okay – what. this is not comparable !” I said emotions while crying and holding her hand.
“You don't understand Sophie !”
“Sorry .. sorry, I accidentally,” breathed the guy squeezed while holding Hardin's hand that gripped his shirt.
Hardin's tensed face slackened after seeing my face. Then he said, “Just leave quickly,” Hardin took off his shirt and he left immediately.
“You're scared of me ?” tanyakanya.
I shook my head and wiped my tears, “I just don't like to see people fighting.”
“Sorry Sophie. I really don't want to scare you,” his sigh while looking down, like regretting something.
“You like to hit people Hardin?”
“I'm not that kind of person. Don't ever think I'm like that,”
“But with what I saw just now ?”
“Not ... not ... You were mistaken. I was very angry because....” he stopped for a while. I see the same doubt – doubt as before. “Actually I'm mad at myself Sophie. I was angry because I was a coward. I'm acting like a kid,”
“What do you mean ?” I'm confused by what he's doing. Meanwhile he turned his body, then sat facing the outer side of the road. I sat next to him.
“My letter yesterday,” he said slowly. “Very childish – child instead of ?”
“Eh .. not really. Ordinary,” I replied so that he felt more comfortable.
“I'm sure you must think so. But I want you to know that I was right at that time – really did not know what I should do so you pay attention to me.”
“I noticed you Hardin.”
“Don't comfort me,” he took a deep breath, “I want to be close to you. But my friend is not your friend. The people you know are not people I know. I don't know what reason to say so we can talk to each other,” he talks while looking forward. Towards the rice fields on the right and left side of the paved road. Some of the pad already looks yellow. A farmer was seen planting a man – rice fields complete with his hat. Looks like – little birds slash scattered because of fear. Meanwhile, the sky is neither cloudy nor hot. The fresh air coming out of the plant in that place is true – really makes me comfortable.
“What are you saying too. We have been made and it feels like our relationship is good – is fine, but why do you like not to forgive yourself just because of a small problem that I think is beautiful?”
“Really? You think what you do is a beautiful thing?”
“Of course Hardin. I deg – degan not karena, I do not know at all what to write, I have to ask for help Dede, ask Fernando for help, Fernando almost wrong to give my reply to Frans. What's less exciting than that? It's like a roller coaster, right? You have given me a wonderful experience. Maybe someday, this thing I will tell people – people and we will be the same – laugh it. Hows it? ”
“Really ?” tanyanya surprised.
I nodded, “I'm not lying. In fact, I felt something was missing when you didn't walk the rush – hunt on the small street next to my room last night. Subconsciously, I also noticed you.”
“But I really don't like angry guys – angry. Especially like before,”
“Yes, I understand, sorry. Hopefully it won't happen again.”
“Hopefully?”
“Iya, hopefully. If need be well I will brush.”
I understand what he's saying. Maybe one day something like that is necessary. But I didn't expect.
“You know khan, my parents divorced?” I asked and he replied with a nod.
“I remember that night. I woke up – nights because of a nightmare. I heard in the middle room Papa and Mama had a fight. Pirin broke and the furniture was broken. Seeing people fight, reminds me of that night.”
“I'm sorry,” Hardin put his arm around my shoulder. I put my head on his shoulder.
“Mama Papaku just plain. they often fight too, for – small things that I think do not need. I don't want us to be like that.”
“So Mama Papa you mean?” I flirted and she grimaced.
“Something will be sure. If I get a job or I can manage my grandfather's garden well. You don't mind me being a farmer?”
“What the hell is that? Omku is now a farmer. My grandparents were farmers. Why do I mind?”
He picked me up for a moment.”What would you like to be?”
“Whatever it is, as long as I can still sing with my guitar.”
“I will make sure that no one will take your guitar from your hand Sophie,”
Words – beautiful words he said in this hot afternoon. Feels warm.
Don't worry
I was right here
Hold your hand tightly
Do you feel that ?
A heart that beats faster
Until the blood flows strong
Makes my face red, my nose red
