RTB 2: I Want You Back

104

. Bagas and Maira were still in the doorway. The two are silent in the same position. That is, Maira who hugged Bagas, and Bagas who was silent pecked tightly hugged Maira. Bagas felt that Maira was crying while tightening her embrace.

"Ra... Why are you? Are you offended by my attitude?" Bagas tried to ask and find out the cause of Maira's sudden cry. No, it's actually not sudden, it's just that Maira is too smart to hide her sadness in front of other people besides Dinda. Bagas was sure that Maira would not be able to hold back her crying if she was in front of Dinda, her best friend.

Bagas was increasingly curious about the attitude of Maira who kept silent even though she had asked and wanted to help Maira's problem. Or at least he wants to apologize if it is true he is guilty of already showing an attitude that might make Maira offended.

"Ra. I'm sorry. I'm acting like that because I don't want to be around a woman who already has a boyfriend." Obviously Bagas later.

"It's not."

"Eh?" Bagas did not seem to understand the purpose of Maira's answer. What does Maira mean?

"I don't have a boyfriend." Maira said answering the question in Bagas' mind. This time, Bagas who chose silence, he slowly returned Maira's embrace and stroked her head gently.

"Can you accompany me for a minute? 5 Minutes only!" Pinta Maira withdrew from Bagas' embrace.

"You want to go somewhere? If it's here, I'm afraid there'll be some unpleasant gossip." Hearing Bagas say so, Maira nodded while wiping her tears that had soaked her face. Because his little heart felt unbearable, Bagas also wiped Maira's tears so that the girl was stunned and looked at Bagas deeper.

For a moment Maira recalled Dinda saying yesterday that "Saturizing the heart is not always in the people we love, but instead love will be more beautiful if we love the people who love us. He will understand you without being asked, and he will protect you with all his heart. In fact, he wouldn't be willing to see you scratched just a little. If you're hurt, then he's the one who's gonna wipe away the sadness and he's not gonna let your tears just fall."

And, for a moment Maira drew a thin smile with a sweet treatment from Bagas.

"Why smile?" Maira faded her smile instantly as she heard Bagas' firm and middle-like question mocking her.

"No." Maira replied by turning her face away from Bagas.

"You don't?" Ask Bagas again.

"What?"

"Married me!"

"Huh?" Pekik Maira as if he did not hear what Bagas said and hope Bagas repeated his words.

"Handler." Just so did Bagas' response. Maira nodded slowly and she was surprised as Bagas pushed her body into the room and told her to prepare. Bagas closed the front door and waited for Maira in the front room and let Maira prepare to leave with him. Afterwards, they came out holding hands. Honestly, Maira was nervous and she could not believe it was Bagas who always fought with her every time they met, this time being sweet and showing another side of her.

In front of the door of the other room, someone stared at their departure with a clenched hand and an angry flush was clearly visible on his face. But it also made him attract a meaningful smile to reply to Maira's curse on him yesterday. Ervan enters his room and he stares at the suitcase he has prepared to return to his town tonight, but his intentions are clouded after witnessing his ex-girlfriend being with another man.

"You're the same as it turns out. You hypocritical woman!" Hardik Ervan grinned at the thought of Maira's face in his mind.

"It's late. I'm going home!" Said Bagas while glancing at the watch in his hand.

"alright. Thanks for the ice cream."

"Haha it's okay. Think of it as my apology for being such a bitch to you."

"No no, Bagas. It's because you don't know the truth." Hearing Maira's response, Bagas smiled with relief and said goodbye to Maira that he would leave soon.

"Emm Bagas!" Call Maira after Bagas turns and walks a few steps away.

"Hem?" Bagas turned around and looked back at Maira curiously. Unexpectedly, Maira suddenly kissed Bagas' cheek lightly so that he pecked for an instant. His eyes were round in disbelief if he got a kiss from a woman.

"Be careful." Maira blushed and slightly turned her face away. Looking at Bagas who did not respond to anything anymore and just stared at him without blinking, Maira entered the room feeling already embarrassed. And Bagas grabbed his cheek slowly after Maira passed. His heart suddenly thumped and his heart felt flowering getting the green light from Maira.

After Bagas passed, Maira who was both misbehaved and her heart was racing tried to calm down. Maira rolled around on the bed cursing herself for daring to kiss Bagas just like that. Though if remembered, he and Bagas have nothing to do. He only considers that Bagas also likes it because of the sweet attitude Bagas showed him.

"What am I doing? Arhhhhhh I'm ashamed...." Maira acted random in the room, starting from covering her head with a pillow, going into the blanket, then hugging the bolster by immersing her red face in the mirror.

Amidst his frustration with himself, Maira was struck by the sound of a knock on the door and he thought that it was Bagas. Trying to calm down, Maira came and opened the door hiding her embarrassment to Bagas.

"Is there anything left?" Ask without making it clear who is outside.

"There's." Hearing the familiar voice, Maira who had originally lowered her head now looked up and looked at the pair of eyes with a mocking look that was thrown at her.

"E-erwana? What else do you want?" Pekik Maira suddenly became very tight.

"Wouldn't do anything. I just want to say that you're no different from me."

"What do you mean?"

"Yesterday you slapped me and scolded me, but you slept with another man. Who is the hypocrite here? How much money did you receive from that man, Maira?" 'Plak' instead of answering, Maira instead slapped hard on Ervan's cheek so that the man turned rude.

"Shut up you bastard! You don't know anything."

"A bitch doesn't deserve to call me a bastard." Ervan was both on the blackboard, and Maira was silent for a moment with Ervan's heart-wrenching curse.
