sacrificial taste

episode 24

"hi" I feel so awkward

"van!" zafran got up from his sleep and sat down while nodding his head towards the chair near his bed gesturing for me to sit there

I nodded and walked towards the chair

"i don't think you're gonna come see me"

swear it! for the first time that night I felt awkward being with a man, and I just smiled as zafran said that.

"yuni said you don't want to visit me, saying you're still angry and disappointed with me"

"uh uh? yuni said that?" geez! my best friend is so innocent

"yes, right? I thought you forgave me"

"eh, yuni misunderstood the times! last time they wanted to come here I didn't come because there was a family event earlier this afternoon hehe" if I lied

"hm" gives a flat face

uh what is that? why did he just answer like that, almost 15 minutes the room was silent without a sound. I felt awkward again until I finally saw the food beside the zafran and remembered his mother's words that he had not eaten

"zafran, why don't you eat?" I walked to her side and took her food plate

"the food is not good!"

"have you tried?"

"just now, it tastes bitter"

"not bitter! you are sick, your tongue is bitter! eat well"

"i don't have a Vania appetite"

"you want to heal, don't you? or are you comfortable here?"

"i want to eat but you're the bribe!"

"eat yourself!"

"just keep it, it's off"

"hhh, I'm a bribe"

"yess, sit here" she patted the bed next to him

I sat next to him, looked into his eyes and it made me sad! I love you zafran, but we can't possibly be together.

"why vania? why are your eyes glazed over?"

"uh?it's okay"

zafran wiped the tears that almost trickled down my cheek "why van?"

"no! let's eat" I bribed him

"why is this food so sweet? the feeling was bitter"

"what the hell" I smiled shyly

"oh, maybe this food is so sweet because it's contracted from your sweet smile"

"zafran, it's ah!" I can't control my lips not to smile

"ah, miss me with that smile"

I continued to feed him until the food ran out, it felt like I wanted the time to stop. I wanted to continue with him!

"vania" he looked at me

"yeah?"

she didn't say anything just looking at me and stroking my hair up to my cheek after that she directly lowered her head

"forgive me vania, I swear I didn't mean that time! I don't know why I believed Nadin and I stupidly didn't find out the truth and I accidentally didn't know how many of my actions had hurt your heart"

"already zafran, at least with this incident I can know anyone who is sincere to me"

zafran looked very sad and I could see the regret in his eyes.he just kept quiet and kept his head down making the atmosphere go back to silence, even I could hear the sound of my own breathing.

"well, I'm home, Zaf!"

"wait, mom, yeah, I'll introduce you to her"

"my mother and I know pretty well"

"uh uh? meanin?"

"yes, before entering me and your mother had many stories outside"

"when? why don't I know?"

"maybe you were busy staring at that window"

"what story are you?"

"lots"

"about?"

"about you haha"

"what did you say?"

"said you said Vania was your girlfriend"

"uh?" zafran laughed quite loudly and acted strangely

"zafran! don't shake much, look at your bloody infusion!" I launched the liquid so that the blood would re-enter and when I did that, Zafran's mother was back

"uh why is that?"

"ah mother! this, bloody zafran infusion.he's a lot of whims"

"basic this boy! I bought the vitamins that the doctor said you were drinking! but you ate first" his mother wanted to take a plate of zafran food but saw the contents of the plate had run out "do you eat anyway? the mother who forced her to eat did not want to, but fitting her boyfriend who told her to spend it directly" her mother zafran blinked her eyes at me

"mother told him anything" Zafran looked at his mother and turned his back on me

"no! mom didn't tell me anything"

"mother, then Vania went home first well" because she saw the zafran who kept staring at her mother, maybe she was embarrassed because her mother told me that zafran confessed to her mother that I was her boyfriend

"ohiya boy!" zafran's mother kissed me on the cheek and hugged me which made me so happy.zafran also saw his mother do that to me also looks happy from the look of the face with a big smile on her lips

"zafran I'm home yah!"

"tomorrow comes again son" his mother zafran held my shoulder

"iyaa insyaallah ma'am"

"sorry, I should've driven you to the van"

"no, you are sick! I can go home by myself, see my online project is already down" I showed my phone to the zafran because he looked worried

"be careful then, you don't get close to the driver" he snapped a finger at my forehead

"what the hell is zaf! vania's mother came home"

"thank you son!"

"hehe ya ma'am"
