RIGEL SPACE

[33 | Kinda Crazy]

Rigel noticed the state of the restaurant that was filled only by a few people, because the weather was raining makes some people lazy to leave the house. His sharp eyes stared at the one object that was the basis of worry in his chest that almost exploded maybe if he did not find the girl in front of him about five meters from where he was standing.

Rigel steadied his feet as he stepped closer to the beautiful girl who sometimes seemed to be the center of attention of some of the men sitting in the corner of the restaurant. And Rigel believes one hundred percent of the girl is unaware of her whereabouts.

"Azella's."

Sure enough, Azella seemed a little surprised when Rigel was in front of her, but soon changed it again into a flat look.

"Remain here?" Ask Azella ketus.

"It's a public place, anyone can come here."

"Oh yaudah, I'll go if you want to be here." Answer Azella cuek.

Rigel nimbly pulled Azella's arm back to sit when the girl was about to stand up.

"What?!" Azella protested. Rigel brought her handsome face closer to Azella, so she could feel Rigel's breath touching her face.

Rigel directs one hand tidying strands after strands of Azella's messy hair.

"If you need someone who wants to grieve all your complaints, I'm ready 24 hours. Or if you need someone to make it a place to lean on, my shoulders are firm to you, and if you need someone who wants to accept you more than yourself, my embrace is always warm for you Azella." Striking Rigel near Azella's ear.

Azella looked at Rigel from the edge of her eyes with a strange feeling that had never been felt before.

"Don't believe it, don't avoid it, I'm here for you, all your grief I promise you will all be gone soon." Rigel.

"Stop as if you know everything about me." Azella said after a long silence.

"No, I've always been there for you but you're the one who avoids, like you're the one who points out that you're not all right."

Azella held back the vexation within her chest, the girl's breath going up and down. "Please put my hand on Rigel."

"Never."

"What does he want?" Azella asked withstanding the pool of tears that already wanted to flow profusely. I don't know Azella can't be like this. Azella doesn't like anyone trying to find out about her life.

"Why do you cry?" Rigel asked, ignoring Azella's question.

"Who is crying?!" Azella did not accept.

"I go wherever you go."

Azella sighed softly. "Don't bother me."

"No."

"Gue doesn't have to be the same." Decisive Azella then immediately distanced herself from Rigel.

The difference is, Rigel does not prevent what the girl is doing, but Rigel steps up following Azella's small steps.

"Don't follow me." Azella said when she realized Rigel was following her.

"As far as I am."

Azella rolled her eyes lazily because of Rigel's behavior. The girl looked at the sky that was very dark because it was cloudy, and also the rain that was falling was getting heavier. Azella did not care, rather than with Rigel better Azella chose to avoid even though her choice crossed the ocean though.

Azella walked downstairs to the car park. But suddenly Azella felt a barrier protecting her head from the rain.

"Diem." Rigel said he saw Azella, who wanted to escape from her jacket, which was used to protect her head from the rain. Not that I don't want to take an umbrella, Rigel just wants a little romantic. Crazy indeed.

Azella refuses when Rigel directs their steps towards the man's car.

"No yeah! I brought a car." Reject Azella when Rigel unlocks her car.

"When did I enter or kiss?"

"What the hell?!"

"okay."

Cup...

Azella was silent, what was that?

Azella held onto her lips that Rigel had let out a slow sniff.

"Lake in."

As hypnotized, Azella according to enter and sit in the passenger seat. While Rigel circled his car and got in on the wheel.

Rigel glanced at Azella for a moment before driving away from the restaurant.

Azella growled in her heart, why is it so easy for Rigel to turn her world upside down? Look, now the man is acting as if that little kiss is common. Azella felt her heart wanted to explode right now.

"Where are you going?" Azella finally asked.

Rigel silently did not answer. The man focused on the street in front of him.

Azella let out a breath of air, wasn't she still angry? Then why was Rigel following along so madly?

It felt like Azella wanted to just fly, wanting to release all the burdens that were inside her. If Azella can choose, Azella refuses to be born with this complicated situation. No one can choose when and where they will be born.

Importantly, in the future Azella must know the planning of her life.

Uh,

There she is, Azella now has no purpose in her life. All empty. Everything he does means nothing at all.

"Down."

Azella jumped in shock when she saw Rigel's car parked in front of a tall building that Azella believed was the man's apartment.

"Why come here? I don't want to come here." Azella.

Rigel glanced at Azella sharply from the tip of his eye. Come on, want to test how else is the patience level of a Rigel this time?

"Down and follow me, or go alone where you want, I don't care." Ketus Rigel then got out of his car.

Brakk..

Azella again jumped in shock when Rigel closed his car door violently.

Azella clenched her hands tightly, if possible Azella wanted to cry right now. How could the man just take him away from the restaurant and leave his car there, and now Rigel doesn't care about him.

Azella got out of Rigel's car quickly, then closed the car door.

Brakk...

Azella who closed the car door rough made Rigel who initially focused on his phone turn his attention completely to Azella.

But Azella did not care about it, the girl walked away from Rigel's car and also Rigel's apartment building.

Azella let the rain wash all over her body, even when the tears of the girl had already flowed. Azella doesn't care about Rigel anymore. Let it be, once it is destroyed let it all be destroyed.

But just a few steps away, Azella felt her body being forcefully lifted. Azella was suddenly on Rigel's shoulders carrying him like a sack of rice.

Azella tried to rebel with her hands and feet, but like a blow to the wind, Rigel was not affected at all. Not caring about the gaze of the person who was watching him, Rigel walked carelessly towards his apartment unit. Besides this big building is also on his behalf since a year ago.

Bruks....

"Rigel's sick." Azella protests when Rigel throws her cruelly on a sofa in the living room in Rigel's apartment unit.

After discarding the two objects, Rigel walked up to his kitchen and took out two glasses from the cupboard above the glass storage.

Azella blinked her eyes several times, it could be that at a time like this Azella even felt fascinated by the body sculpture of Rigel.

Azella averted her gaze when Rigel returned to her direction with two glasses that Azella was sure of the smell of hot chocolate.

Rigel placed one cup of hot chocolate on the table in front of Azella without saying anything. While Azella who saw him only held her breath because their distance was very close.

Rigel turned around Azella and took a seat in front of the girl.

"Gue won't drink."

Rigel focused his gaze on the beautiful girl in front of him whose clothes were completely wet.

"Whatever."

Azella let out a breath of air looking at Rigel who was angry at her.

"I should be angry." Azella's great-grandson played with her nails.

"Regel." Lirih Azella again when she saw Rigel busy with his phone and ignored his existence.

"Yaudah, if you are why I was invited here."

Silent.

Azella held back the emotion in her chest that had wanted to explode when Rigel did not notice her either.

Azella got up from her seat and approached Rigel and grabbed the man's phone.

Prangs..

Azella throws Rigel's cell phone hard at the floor. Of course the effect of the phone is no longer shaped like before. Rigel just raised his eyebrows sideways relaxed.

Azella with the rest of her defenses drops herself into Rigel's lap. Drown himself deeply in Rigel's warm shade.

Rigel let out a breath of air before returning Azella's embrace. No matter her body was wet because of the girl's clothes.

Hix...

Hix...

Okay, now Rigel feels his chest wet with Azella's tears streaming down from both of his beautiful eyes.

"Why cry, hm?" Rigel asked as he gently rubbed Azella's head.

"Evil."

"Came-on"

"You're evil anyway." Sela Azella quickly while rubbing her face again in the field belonging to Rigel.

Rigel sighed tiredly.

"Yes I'm the bad one. You're good to keep."

Bugh...

Rigel was a little surprised when Azella hit his chest hard enough. No, it didn't hurt, but Rigel didn't expect Azella to do it.

"Why again? I told you I was bad."

"You never knew me." Lirih Azella still drowned her head in Rigel's arms.

Rigel pinched his temple with his left hand resting on the sofa, while his right hand tightly hugged Azella's slender waist which was above his lap.

"Yes, I never knew you."

Azella lifted her face from the chest of Rigel's field. The girl looked at Rigel with her eyes puffy.

"Get her eyes red, naughty." Rigel gently stroked Azella's eyes.

"I want to rest."

Rigel looked at Azella with a meaningful look.

"Yes now you rest."

"But you are meenin."

"I'm temenin."

Azella got up from her seat and also pulled Rigel's hand to stand up. And Rigel voluntarily complied with the girl's wishes.

Just two steps away, Azella felt like stepping on something, and her eyes immediately rounded in shock when she saw the thing she was stepping on.

"Father." Said Rigel understood.

"I-i"

"It's okay, I got a lot of phones like that."

Rigel pulls Azella's hand to look at her, "You go up to my room, get changed, don't get sick."

Azella nodded then walked up the stairs towards Rigel's room.

Rigel stared at the phone with the apple logo with a flat look. No, instead of Rigel regretting his ruined phone, Rigel even had a stake in the apple company.

Buying one iPhone 12 Pro Max is like buying candy for Rigel.

Rigel stepped his feet into one room where the room was his work room complete with advanced technology tools and also a library.

Rigel picks up a newly trimmed cell phone that automatically contains the same contents as his damaged phone earlier.

Rigel typed a few numbers and then put his phone near his ear.

"Do it now, Xiever." Rigel said then immediately turned off his phone, the man walked up to Azella with a thin smile that contrasted with his cold face.

The old man seemed to have dared to tease hers.

..._________________...

Azella looked at the window when she saw Rigel entering her room still with no boss. Azella has been wearing a change of clothes that have been in this room since Azella came first.

Rigel glanced at Azella for a moment before entering the bathroom.

Azella looked carefully at the room she had entered several times. There is one photo album on the table that Azella accidentally saw there is a pile of books at the bottom.

Azella thought it was Rigel's album as a child, when she heard the sound of water gurgling from inside Azella's toilet as excited as to see the album silently without Rigel knowing.

Azella smiled slightly then opened the first page. But his eyes were in shock seeing not a photo of Rigel who was there, but a photo of him. Not just one or two, but ten times more. Not just photos now, but photos of childhood, sd, even smp and sma.

Hold on, so Rigel's been getting to know her all along? Who exactly is Rigel? Why are there so many photos here, even this Azella sure all this is taken secretly.

Azella feels all is not right, Azella can not trust Rigel anymore if this is the case. Azella watched the album whose picture was scattered on the floor of the room. Azella sat down and leaned in the bed while hugging her confused knees.

"What are you doing?"
