Queen Kepo

35. Decisions

The night passed with a decision. The decision that the Queen had thought carefully, although at first the Queen had doubts. The decision is, tomorrow the Queen will ask the Eagle about what the Queen wants to know. Hopefully the Eagle will answer all the Queen's curiosity and if not the most important thing the Queen has tried.

The next day the Queen dared herself to talk to the Eagle. The Queen realized that what she was doing might not be of any use. Yes, it was the Queen's mind before the Queen thought that if the Queen knew what had happened to Gavin and Efrina in the past, maybe a little bit of the Queen would help Gavin treat his wounds. So despite the embarrassment the Queen kept asking the Eagle.

The eagle knows the answer the Queen wants. But the Eagle would not tell him that day, the day the Queen asked the Eagle. The eagle asked the Queen to wait for Monday to come. The Queen did not know why, but the Queen agreed to the words of the Eagle. The queen will wait even though her curiosity is often inflamed.

And today is the day when the Eagle will answer all the Queen's curiosity with what he knows and the Queen hopes the Eagle does not tell lies.

"Gavin always told me how unfortunately he was with Efrina. He's doing anything for Efrina. In my opinion, she loves Efrina more than anything including herself"

"Isn't that not good, is it?" The sentence of the rhetorical question came out of the Queen's mouth which made the Eagle not continue his words.

"Yes. Not good and not healthy. Because Falling in love is healthy when we love ourselves without forgetting to love ourselves"

Wise and mature like that is the Queen's judgment after knowing the Eagle for a few days. Every word and sentence that the Eagle came out of his mouth was very different from Gavin. If there's a comparison between them, that's how you think it is.

"Continue?" The Queen asked impatiently.

"As far as I know Efrina was cheating on Deva. Do you know which Deva is?"

The queen nodded her head. Obviously he was picking up that guy. The man who once declared his love but the Queen refused.

"Efrina said that Gavin was a jerk and something bad. And that's what makes Gavin so you know how he is" The eagle chose not to continue his words because he knew that the Queen knew how Gavin was now.

The Queen did not know what to feel. Happy that he has lost his curiosity? Or feel sad about the things Efrina did to make Gavin become like this.

But Gavin obviously did something like this not just because of Efrina. There must be another reason. It can't be just because of Efrina. Efrina may be one of the causes is not the main factor why Gavin can be a bad boy as people say.

...*...

This afternoon the Queen had just attended a meeting of the members who were about to take part in the race. Poetry is the race he will follow. This race is held in small. They are also just students of one school. But that's not a problem. The Queen's intention is only to participate not to get a champion. But that doesn't mean the Queen doesn't want a champion, but it's not her priority.

And it turns out that Gavin-who has finished his scoring period is waiting for the Queen to invite him home together. The queen could refuse.

Now they walk side by side, passing through the corridors to the parking lot. The Queen's steps were stopped and Gavin who realized it stopped immediately.

After exhaling his breath with rage. The queen ventured to look into Gavin's eyes and asked.

"What are we?"

"What is that anyway? Did you forget that we are human?"

The queen clucked in annoyance at Gavin's reply. That's not the answer the Queen wants. Is the Queen's question less clear or is Gavin pretending not to understand?

"What is our relationship?" The queen asked in an annoyed tone mixed with anger.

The queen is not typical of most women who have an exorbitant prestige. Queen is also not a typical girl who uses various codes to be given certainty by doi. The queen prefers to the point, it saves more time right?

After that what was heard was the sound of Gavin's laughter, not the answer. The queen looked at Gavin strangely, what was so funny about the question?.

"Gue shot you. You accepted me too. Our relationship is dating unless you want our relationship to be more serious like fiancee or marriage yes ayok me mah" Then Gavin again laughs.

The Queen was getting upset. Perhaps Gavin is indeed a God-created being without any seriousness.

"When are we?"

"Time of the eleventh, as you wish. Should I shoot you again? I don't mind if your answer is the same"

"Don't use me you. Disgust me with it" snapped the Queen.

A second later Gavin's laughter broke. Though Gavin changed my word lo to me you it to sound romantic. But what according to Gavin romantic even disgusted according to the Queen.

Gavin stepped up to get closer to the bench near the corridor. Then he sat down and told the Queen to sit by his side. Queen obeyed.

"We're dating. I've shot you and you accepted. But you want to be on the date as explained? Our date is the eleventh. No need to repeat it if I think"

The queen nodded her head. He understood what Gavin was saying. The Queen is just making sure of what relationship she and Gavin are now in. And it turned out that Gavin's answer was very satisfying to him.

"So I'm your boyfriend?" The queen turned to Gavin who was focusing his attention to the front.

Gavin undoes his intention to move from there. He turned to the Queen and asked her why she replied.

"I want to know about Efrina"

Gavin rounded his eyes. He did not expect from all the topics that could be discussed why it should be about Efrina. And how did the Queen know about Efrina whereas Efrina had moved schools before the Queen became a new student. Ah, maybe Gavin forgot that his girlfriend had an amazing sense of poignancy.

"Efrina is an ex. If you're the future" then Gavin smiles at the Queen.

Indeed after hearing the name Efrina called especially by her boyfriend it makes Gavin a little disturbed. Gavin doesn't want to talk about the past. But now Gavin is calm and doesn't mind.

"Other than the ex. What is efrina?" The queen was trying to ignore what Gavin had just said about her. Although it is not denied if his heart is happy.

"Yes just like us. Efrina is also human"

"Gue already knew about lo and Efrina" the Queen tried to focus this conversation on her initial goal, although Gavin's response was always punctuated by jokes.

"If you know why" Gavin's voice sounded cynical, especially the sharp eyes he threw at the Queen. The Queen understood that Gavin was angry.

"Maafin Efrina"

"What are you talking about? He never apologized"

"Pardon without being asked is better. Forgive her for yourself" The Queen stopped what she realized when Gavin turned her interlocutor looked away, as if she did not want to respond to what the Queen had said.

"If Efrina ngatain lo jerk you should be able to prove that her words are sala--"

"It doesn't even flare up or get worse. What do you mean? Huh yeah?" A soft voice with a tone that everyone who heard would know that Gavin was angry.

The queen breathed out slowly. He had no idea that saying this would make Gavin this angry. The Queen chose to just end this chat.

"Yes uda-"

"Gue vented my anger onto an innocent person. It should be that girl who became the vent of my anger, because she was the cause. He cheated on Deva and ah I males. My emotions are hard to resist, I always want what the girl does and her infidelity. So I never once objected to beating people because of trivial things"

The queen could catch the disappointment from the look in Gavin's eyes. Even Gavin did not mention Efrina by name, probably because he did not want Gavin to say that name.

"Hey look at me" One finger of the Queen touched Gavin's chin and directed him to face the Queen's face. Gavin did not refuse, he happily looked at the Queen.

"Try me sorry Efrina. Because if forgetting is impossible, it is easier to forgive than to forget. Efrina's cheating may be for a reason, whether it's her reason at lo or at him. Either because he does not have the feeling of love as big as you or either because you love him too much to forget to love yourself. Efrina was stopping by to bring lessons to your life. If you love someone right now you have to love yourself"

"And that someone is lo"

The Queen smiled at Gavin's words but only a few seconds did the Queen hold back her smile.

"If you can't forgive Efrina, you won't be angry when you remember her. Your emotions will also be held back. You just need an impingement to vent about what you feel. Now there's me"

"So I can vent anything I feel the same you? Should I be nonjokin? Naw. We're friends not life-friend-tonjokkan"

The queen looked at Gavin in annoyance. Habit, Gavin always cuts his word.

"Expressing it does not always have to be a tonjok-tonjokkan. Can be by talking. Now there I can you tell whatever the same gu-"

"If you tell me about how much I'm grateful to have a boyfriend like you can't?" Gavin raised both eyebrows.

Seeing Gavin's behavior, it feels like the Queen wants to punch both eyebrows. But hearing Gavin's words, made the Queen want to smile.

But what the Queen will do is not smile or punch Gavin in the eyebrows. The night queen opened her mouth and returned to voice.

"Prove that in the future you can be someone who means something until they regret having ever hurt you"

"Help me" Gavin looked at the Queen with a pleading gaze.

"Help what?"

"Help the evidence that in the future I can be a good husband and father with lo being my wife d-"

One slap that was hard enough to land on Gavin's right cheek. The slap was a gift from the Queen for Gavin's crazy words.
