So My First Two-Wife Love

There is you between me and him

“Jasmine!!!” The screams sounded so loud that it surprised me. I then raised my head and looked towards that voice. Gibran came with a gasping breath and a worried face.

“Gue kira loe kidnapped Alien!” That was the first sentence he said after being in front of me. While adjusting his irregular breathing, Gibran sat in the front seat of my desk. He faced me and looked at me even though he seemed to want to say a lot of things but he still continued to catch his breath.

“Why did you leave without saying? You know, same grandma I was panicking nyariin loe!” Gibran immediately scolded me after that.

“Gue already told me how grandma if today I want to walk early.”

“Keep why didn't you tell me?”

“Why should I say?”

Gibran was instantly stunned to hear my reply who asked him back in a cold tone.

The atmosphere became even quieter now, even the sound of the wind blowing outside the window could be heard filling the classroom void where only and I and Gibran.

“Loe why the hell?” once again Gibran asked but this time there was no anger in the intonation of his voice.

“No why.” replied me who was reluctant to look at his face.

“Jasmine ..” Gibran touched my hand and held it tightly, he might not have realized if his little touch made my heart tremble. It's getting worse if I remember her treatment of me lately.

Stranger, I felt we were slowly becoming strangers, a closeness that intertwined throughout our lives as if it had never happened.

I'm ashamed to admit it, my pride would be ruined if I had to say that, "i feel like you've been ignoring me ever since Ruby".

I can't say it and it's torturing me now, if you don't throw me away after knowing him then the distance between us won't be this big.

“Loh Gibran!”

Gibran immediately pulled out his hand, he let go of my hand just like that when Ruby came. Once again I felt that, a sense of tightness that I could not describe when I was among them.

“Kok kak Gibran can be in class anyway? I guess I didn't come to pick up because there was a lecture in the morning.” said Ruby who immediately sat in her place, right next to me and immediately turned Gibran's attention to her.

There is one more thing that bothers me because the ruby call on Gibran has now changed to “Kak Gibran” The call sounds sweet but makes my heart ache.

“Why the hell?” ask Ruby again who realizes if there is something different with my attitude and Gibran now.

“No why.” replied I smiled faintly at Ruby.

“I think I'm bothering you guys, really not bothering right?” ruby said make sure and I answered briefly, “gak kok!”

“So why is this handsome brother Gibran? Brother is angry because yesterday I suddenly canceled the appointment?”

A promise? They have an appointment without me?

It felt like I was drawn backwards, to a very dark side leaving the two of them in a light that was hard for me to get into.

“Not really, I understand.” replied Gibran smiled gently, his tone also sounded softly different when he was talking to me, always sounding like he was angry.

There was a little envy when Ruby alluded to his closeness to his father, he had a near-perfect life, a beautiful face, a prosperous life even fairly rich with a warm and intact family, a smart brain and a handsome man who takes care of him.

I looked at Gibran when I thought of the handsome man who was watching Ruby because the picture was clearly visible from the way Gibran was looking at Ruby now.

Accidentally my eyes and Gibran met, he looked guilty but his gaze was quickly sidetracked at Ruby when Ruby unhesitatingly touched the back of his hand. “Lain times yes?”

Gibran smiled and nodded his head. It seems like the two of them did not intend to invite me to join but I also could not avoid this stifling situation of not wanting to look pitiful so with a heavy heart, either, I stay in the middle of them.

After that, Gibran bailed away because he could not continue to be in school even though this was his alma mater school.

“Let me pick up, don't go home first before I pick up.” message Gibran to me before leaving and Ruby is happy to take her away. Ruby looked like she was driving her husband away to work, she smiled so sweetly that many students in the class glanced at Gibran with envious looks as well as preferably.

I have to admit that the two of them are very compatible.

When the time came home, I felt lazy to get out of the classroom but Ruby patiently waited for me to even help me tidy up my stationery and put it in my bag.

“Thank you.” said I smiled thinly even though I didn't like her closeness to Gibran but I couldn't hate Ruby either, this made me feel even harder.

“You why the hell? From yesterday I saw you not so excited?” ruby asked as we began to step out of the classroom simultaneously.

“However, just another males aja.”

“It's not because I decked out Gibran right?”

My footsteps stopped when Ruby said something that felt like stabbing me in the heart.

“What the hell is it?” I said trying to stay calm and continue my steps.

“Thank God, because I'm so afraid that because of me your friendship is broken.”

“Why can it be damaged? Unless you manipulate him, my relationship with Gibran will be fine aja.”

“You said that anyway, I agreed with Gibran without asking you because you ever said you want to go to another university after college later on I already have the same university entrance plan with Gibran so he said he could invite I looked around the campus and searched for information.” Obviously Ruby who looks sad when explaining everything, she doesn't seem to want me to misunderstand and it makes me feel guilty for being cold to her.

“Yes so don't ask me, I've said that I'm not okay.”

Ruby was silent at once, I couldn't express my guilt properly so I instead spoke to him in a high tone until all the other students who were also in the same hallway with us stared straight at us and gave a cynical look at me who was already yelling at Ruby. This school idol girl.

“Sorry, I recently cape again because I have to prepare for the scholarship exam.” said I looked down regretfully and made the scholarship exam that will still start in a few months is an excuse because I can't tell the truth that will only hurt Ruby if I say honestly if I don't like his presence in my friendship with Gibran.

Ruby then stepped closer, she hugged me after which made me feel very surprised. “Sorry yes, I don't understand.”

Sorry, Ruby. You are too kind to accept unfounded hatred from me.
