Pursue Your Love Back

Chapter 12: The Fear

Slowly the girl opened her eyes. He held his head which still felt heavy. He looked up at the sky trying to remember what happened. He tried to get up and sit down. He saw himself now covered in a blanket. He turned to his side and there was a young man there who was quite familiar. The young man was bare-chested just like him. He was surprised too.

"Oh my god, what have I done" he murmured as he held the blanket that covered his body

The young man next to her woke up and looked at her. He sat down and faced Angel

"Angel are you awake??" he asked

"What have you done with me Dan?? Hikss. hiks.", cried Angel.

"What's nglakuin?? Didn't we do it on the basis of liking" he said

"Take care of your words Dani!!", cried Angel

Angel was flabbergasted not to believe what Dani said just now. The Dani he had known all along was a plain, bespectacled guy, who was impossible to do such a thing to him. But Dani who is now in front of him has become a different Dani. I don't think he was here for a job interview and met Miss Siska, but why now he can go to bed with his new classmate, Dani.

"Record"

A slap landed on the young man's cheek.

Angel was crying, she cursed herself with what she had done. Right now all he had in mind was an enormous fear of what was happening right now.

Slowly he tried to get up and still covered his body with a blanket, he took his clothes scattered on the floor. He also took her into the bathroom leaving Dani who was still sitting silent while holding her cheek that had been slapped by him.

He hung his clothes on a clothes hanger, then he turned on the shower in the bathroom and he cried so badly under the water. His heart was filled with immense guilt and fear. His mother must have been very disappointed in him. Then what about his girlfriend Aarav, he would also hate him if he knew what he had done with Dani earlier.

After a while he came out of the bathroom already wearing his clothes back. He looked towards Dani who was still sitting on the bed and looked towards him.

His tears kept pouring out, he picked up his bag of sofas and he ran towards the door. He opened the door and ran to get out of the place, leaving Dani who was still sitting on the bed without wearing clothes.

Outside the afternoon, he did not know what time it was. His mind was currently very chaotic.

He was about to cross the road when a motorbike stopped in front of him

"Angel?? Why you??",

Asked a young man who was riding the bike when he saw Angel.

"You cry??"

The young man looked at Angel's extremely chaotic appearance and her puffy eyes.

The young man looked towards the place where Angel had come out of.

"Why did you get out of the hotel??", he asked again

Angel only hiccupped and did not answer the young man's question. At the moment he can't think of anything.

"I drive you home??" said the young man who turned out to be Ken

Angel agreed. Angelpun climbed on the young man's bike and hugged him.

Along the way they just fell silent, Ken did not dare to ask again because he knew Angel must have a problem and did not want to tell a story.

Arriving in front of the house, Angel immediately got off Ken's motorcycle and ran into the house without greeting Ken. Ken is also confused by Angel's unusual attitude. He could only watch the girl leave.

Angel closed the door and leaned against the door. Arini, who saw her daughter, walked up to her.

Angel wiped her tears when she saw her mother approach her. She doesn't want her mother to worry

"Have you come home, baby?", asked Arini

Angel tried to smile in front of her mother

"Yes ma.", replied Angel

"Where was the interview?", asked Arini

"Ma.. Angel tired. Angel going to the room first?", Sela Angel

Angel leaves her mother still confused by her unusual attitude.

Arini looked worried seeing the attitude of her daughter.

"Angel why yes.not usually he behaves like that.", muttered Arini curiously.

"Maybe tomorrow I'll ask if he's better" he added

Angel went into her room and locked the door. He didn't want his mother to see him cry and worry about him.

Angel threw her bag on the bed. He sat down on the floor and leaned on his bed.

He cried stifled, he did not want his mother to hear the sound of his crying at this time

"Oh my God, what did I do before" cried Angel.

He was completely enveloped in immense fear. During this time he was never so close to a guy except with his girlfriend Aarav. But this time he can sleep one bed but not with his girlfriend. Even with Aarav he was only limited to kissing, but this time what he did could be forgiven if his lover knew. Even he himself could not forgive himself for what happened between him and Dani earlier in the hotel.

"Tring... Tring. tring..."

Angel's phone rang from inside her bag. Slowly Angel took her bag behind her, on the bed. He opened his bag and reached into it. He looked for his phone and took it out of the bag. Seen there the incoming call from her lover Aarav. Seen there have been some missed calls, maybe Aarav has tried to contact him from earlier. He knew Aarav must have been worried about him, because just now at the college he went unkind to him. He thought he would only go for a short interview but instead he experienced things he never expected before.

Angel wiped her tears, hesitatingly picking up her phone. He didn't want his girlfriend to worry about him. If he hadn't picked up his phone, Aarav would have come to his house to see it. But at the moment he is not ready to meet her in person. He felt he had betrayed his girlfriend. He won't be able to see it for now

"Where are you going?? I was telfonin. I'm worried, who did you go home with? I'm looking for you classily you don't exist?", asked Aarav from behind a phone call

Angel was silent for a moment and tried to catch her breath. He didn't want his girlfriend to know he was crying

"I'm sorry, I went home with a friend. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about the fact that I had an assignment from the Lecturer so I went home with my friend", Angel lied

"Friends?? Girlfriend or guy?", asked Aarav curiously

"T-girlfriend.., we had to do some tasks, I also did not know there was a phone from you because hpnya I'm silent.."

Angel covered her mouth with her hand so that her cries could not be heard by Aarav

"Why do you sound?? You cry??", asked Aarav worriedly

"No, I'm just tired. I'm sleepy. I want to go to bed first, bye..",

Angel turned off her phone and went back to crying. He could not hold back his tears because he had to lie to his lover.

"I'm sorry Aarav... " Inner Angel

Angel buried her face on her knees. His hands wrapped around both of his legs.

While in his room Aarav who was sitting at the edge of the bed while holding hp in his hand.

"It's not usually Angel like this. There must be something he's hiding from me" Aarav murmured

"Did I just meet him? But he said he was tired of going to sleep... Tomorrow morning I'll meet him and pick him up.."

Aarav put his cellphone on the table and laid himself on the bed.

But his eyes could not be closed, he kept thinking about his lover.

***

Early in the morning Aarav was at Angel's house. He couldn't sleep because he thought about the girl.

Arini's mother Angel opened the door after Aarav had knocked on it

"Son Aarav.morningly came here.", Sapa Arini.

"Angel is there aunty??" asked Aarav

"Oh.. Angel.it looks like she's not up yet. Wait a minute, Auntie, try calling. Please let Aarav sit down first" said Arini

Aarav came in and sat in the living room. While Arini walks towards Angel's room to call her. Arriving in front of the room, he knocked on the door of his daughter's room, not usually Angel locked the door from the inside.

"Angel.. have you woken up, son??. in front there is a son Aarav..", cried Arini

After a while Angel opened the door with her lethargic face and puffy eyes, she did not sleep all night. Arini was worried about seeing her daughter. He held his daughter's forehead to see if she was sick.

"You are sick, son.", said Arini anxiously.

"Ma. I no longer want to meet Aarav or anyone. please yes ma.. Angel tired.wanting to rest.", said Angel.

"But son?", cried Arini

"Please ma.." Angel's pleasing

Arini also nodded in understanding

"Yes already. Then you rest first. Mama meet Aarav first huh?", said mama

Arini leaves Angel's room. After her mother left, Angel cried again

"I'm sorry Aarav. I'm sorry.. hikss...".", The girl's cry couldn't hold back her tears.

Arini again approached Aarav who was sitting in the living room.

Aarav who saw the arrival of Arini immediately woke up from his seat.

"Son Aarav sorry yes, but Angel is not looking to meet anyone" said Arini.

"But Angel is okay, isn't Auntie?? Is she sick??" Ask Aarav worried

"It's best for Aarav to go home first. Later Aunt try to talk to Angel first yes", said Arini

Aarav seemed silent for a moment. He was convinced that there was nothing with his girlfriend. It's not usually that he doesn't want to see her like this.

"Well Aunt.then I say goodbye first.excuse me Auntie.", said Aarav.

"Yes to Aarav", answered Arini.

With a heavy heart Aarav leaves Angel's house without meeting the girl first.

Arini just looked at the young man's departure from the doorway.

"It's not usually Angel like this. Usually if Aarav's son comes he must be very happy immediately. What's up, huh?? I have to talk to him now", Arini muttered.

Arini closes the door after making sure Aarav's car leaves her yard. He rushed to his daughter's room again to find out.
