Restore Your Smile

Both in the Cave

Before moving, James asked Cindy. "How's your head? Is anyone sick? Feeling dizzy or what?"

Cindy felt her injured forehead. "No dizziness. Just a little throbbing around here, "he replied.

James breathed a sigh of relief. "Can you stand?" ask her while extending her hand to Cindy.

Cindy welcomed the hand. With the help of James, Cindy stood up.

"Can road? Because it looks like we have to move places. This place is getting wet due to the wind that is getting stronger and faster, " explains James.

"Can, " answered Cindy short.

James then took off his jacket over Cindy's head. Cindy who saw the attention of her teacher, smiled happily.

They then look for a place to shelter while walking in the shade of shady trees to avoid rain drops. Until finally they found a niche in the rocks that formed like a cave. They also entered the niche.

The cave-shaped niche was not deep. The stone wall behind him could still be seen from the outside. It is good to be a shelter. At least they're not wet.

But the niche is not deep enough to dispel the cold wind that penetrates the skin. They're getting cold.

Cindy was only wearing a thin short-sleeved t-shirt, because when she left the camp area it was still broad daylight. Now he was wearing the jacket James had lent him. But the cold wind still felt piercing. Don't be asked what James feels, whose condition now replaces Cindy, is just wrapped in a shirt.

"Cin, I'm staying away yeah .... Want cumpulin twigs or leaves that can be burned. Hopefully we can light a little fireplace, " James said goodbye.

Cindy whose teeth began to twitch because of the cold, can only nod her head and resigned left James.

Moments later, James returned with twigs and dried leaves in his hands. He collected the dry leaves and twigs bounded by small rocks in the cave. Then he took out a gas lighter from his waist bag and turned the lighter wheel with his thumb.

When the fire appeared at the end of the match, James brought the fire closer to the leaves and twigs to burn. Unfortunately, the cold wind that blew extinguished the fire at the end of the match.

James tried again. This time he turned the lighter wheel right in front of a dry twig. The fire was burning and burned the branch. But back the wind that blows put out the twigs.

Several times James tried to light the mini fireplace he had prepared. But everything failed. Everything was extinguished by the wind that managed to blow all the way into the niche.

James surrenders. The skin of his thumb was red and felt sore due to repeatedly rubbing against the lighter wheel. He leaned his back against the stone wall behind him.

Hatchy !! Cindy sneezed next to him.

James looked at the girl with concern. Cindy looked like an abandoned kitten who could only curl up in the cold. Waiting for fate.

"Cin .... Don't misunderstand me. You do not want to be rude to you or take advantage of the opportunity. Want to sit close here so you don't get cold? At least close together, we can help each other ward off the cold. The problem is that you failed to make a fireplace, "proposed James who began to shiver in the cold.

Cindy looked at James whose jacket she had lost. If only he who had been wearing a jacket could still shake, as cold as what his teacher felt now.

Cindy got up from her seat and moved closer to James. He sat in front of James and wrapped James' arms around his body, forming a hugged-like position from behind.

The two people were simply speechless with the new warmth they felt. Cindy leaned against James' chest for a more comfortable position. He faintly heard James' heartbeat racing fast enough.

Comfortable feeling flowed through Cindy's heart. He really enjoys this kind of position, being in the arms of the person he loves. But a second later, the fact that this comfort is only temporary afflicts it. This man is not his. And that bitter reality made her involuntarily cry.

James, who thought Cindy was crying because she was stuck in a difficult situation with him, tried to comfort the girl. She grabs Cindy with her left hand, and caresses Cindy's hair with her right.

"Propause yeah .... Just last night .... Tomorrow we can definitely go out and be with your friends again. Patience ..." he said.

Getting such warm treatment, Cindy even more buried her head into James' chest. His crying became louder. Hearts screamed. Can't! I can't take off Mr. James! I can't! I'm not willing! I don't wantuu !!!

James who was confused what to do, could only continue to hold Cindy in his arms. His hand continued to caress Cindy's hair and pat her on the back until Cindy calmed down. Both are immersed in their own feelings and thoughts.

A voice returned the focus of the two to the real world.

The voice that made James' face red was extinguished and Cindy was instantly speechless.

Rrrrrr krrrr .... Worms in James' stomach protest for rations.

"Sorry .... Understand .... We haven't had dinner yet. You're not hungry?" james asked as he held onto his still-active stomach.

Cindy laughed at the awkwardness of her teacher. "No, I'm not hungry. Just relax, sir. Natural events .." said Cindy.

Cindy recalled something she had carried in her waist bag. He also opened the bag.

"Now, your key hanger! Apparently you fell because you want to take this? Be careful, Non .... Even if you say this is a treasure of the Father, your safety is still more important!" advice James.

Cindy's eyes sparkled. "Yes, I slipped when I wanted to take this. Fortunately you had taken it, " said Cindy while taking the keychain from James' hands.

He was happy that the keychain could return to his hands. That keychain will be a memento after he graduates.

The target at this camping event was also achieved. He got a chance together with Mr. James, even both of them all night. It was a sweet memory that she will always remember.

Suppose James were his. Become a lover who reciprocates his love. Everything will be absolutely perfect.

Cindy again hung the keychain on her waist bag. He also remembered that he was about to offer something to Mr. James, who had been distracted due to a keychain problem.

"I brought some chocolate, sir. Mister want? Pretty, can wedge a little stomach." Cindy offers some small chocolates wrapped like elliptical-shaped candies.

James took one chocolate out of Cindy's hand and opened the package. Without lingering the chocolate he put it in his mouth. Once he chewed, it turned out that in the chocolate it contained a bitter and hot liquid in the throat.

"This is chocolate what's the matter, Cin? How it feels weird. There was a hot bitter liquid in the throat, "asked James as he frowned.

Cindy replied with a grin, "Brandy brown, sir. Get it from temen papa. Had wanted to split the theme to make funny and tacky it. But because of the keychain you lost, so forget about it ...."

James stunned. If not wrong, the alcohol content in brandy is quite high, which is about 35-60%. Is it safe for him to drink a glass of beer? The alcohol content in beer is only about 4-6%.

"How dare you bring booze at school, huh?!" scold James.

"Brown loh, Sir .... The chocolate! Not miras!" errata Cindy.

"Just the same! Both contain alcohol!"

"Yes e lah .... Bede dong, sir .... Drinking water can get drunk. If you only eat chocolate this small, who can get drunk? If you eat it, okay yeah .... But I also didn't bring much. Just to show off and shout prayers, sir ...." Cindy is still trying to defend herself.

James remained silent. He really hopes that what Cindy said is true. He'll get drunk just because he eats this little chocolate? Before that, he was drunk because he drank a beer and a cocktail. Volume is very different.

After thinking so, James calmed down. He also breathed a sigh of relief. Unfortunately, his hope was not fulfilled. Not even 30 minutes later, he felt that he was getting drunk. His face turned red, his body heated up, and his gaze began to twitch.

"Cin ... You sleep first ... I'm starting to feel bad. Maybe soybean. If there is anything, do not hesitate to wake up Mr. yah ..." said James cover his actual condition.

Hearing that, Cindy felt guilty. He felt that he was the cause until his teacher was even sick.

"Yes, Sir. Rest .... Let me stand guard here, " Cindy said.

"Don't push yourself too hard .... Remember, you had passed out earlier, " said James reminded.

"Yes, sir."

Upon hearing that, James immediately closed his eyes. He really couldn't stand it. Better he try to sleep with hope when he wakes up, his drunkenness has subsided.

I don't know how long James slept, until he finally woke up because his cheeks were patted someone.

"Sir James! Mr James! Let's wake!" He heard Mr. Roy calling his name.

James opened his eyes. He still feels a little dizzy. But he forced his eyes open to see the situation around him.

He saw that the day was already bright. Maybe the day has changed and now it is morning. Mr. Roy is next to him. Then the one who woke him by patting his cheek was Mr. Roy.

Where is Cindy ? thought James.

It turns out Cindy was out of the rock niche where they stayed last night. Cindy is being hugged by Wendy and her group's supervising teacher. There were 2 other students beside them.

Seeing that, James heaved a sigh of relief. Now he was convinced that the rescue team had come to rescue them.

Seeing James who seemed to have been fully aware, Mr. Roy immediately asked an unexpected question.

"Sir James, answer honestly .... What have you done to Cindy?" asked Mr. Roy to look at James with a cold look.

James could only be silent. He can't answer. He himself did not understand what had happened. His face could only pale as soon as he realized that the trousers he was wearing had partially degenerated and the zipper was already open.
