SWEET COVENANTS

The Sweet Covenant - 6. A crush?

CLASS 10-2

DHARMA BHAKTI HIGH SCHOOL, CITY X

"siiiing~"

That afternoon the class was so quiet, only the scratches of pens on the paper from the disciples filled the silence.

The teacher in front of the class continued to focus before his blackboard, busy writing various theories from within the book he held.

The students in the class were like they were not interested in making a scene. They are actually tired and sleepy. It was very hot, they were in the last lesson. Of course there is nothing more they expect except the sound of the bell that indicates the learning activities of the day has been completed aka RETURN.

But not so with what was inside Irina's head, the girl who looked calm noted in her book actually kept various questions in her head.

"So, it turns out Rian's the son of the chairman of the school foundation's owner?"

"Even if he's free of SPP money, but he should still be paying class cash, right?"

"But why didn't he tell you from the beginning who he was?"

"Hm... Why do I think of him?"

"Geez, I think I'm thinking too hard but in vain, stupid!"

Irina shook her head in an instant, then tried to re-focus on writing the diatribe in her book.

***

"More...."

Rian thrust a piece of money at Irina's table. They were cleaning all their stationery and books into bags because it was time to return.

Irina was stunned looking at the piece of money on her desk.

"Cash money," Rian explained briefly while staying busy putting books into bags.

"Oh yeah, sorry I wasn't focused." Irina smiled silly, misbehaving.

"Make note, don't charge anymore," Rian reminded flatly.

"What the hell?" Irina just nodded, annoyed.

***

All the students are out of class, as well as Irina. Arriving at the school yard, Irina saw the figure of Rian who was preparing to ride his motorcycle.

For some reason, Irina suddenly thought of apologizing for her mistake in judging Rian all day. Irina immediately rushed over to Rian.

"Dian!"

"What else is it?" Rian was preparing to wear his helmet.

"What else do you want to do?" he continued while improving his sitting position.

"Collected? Do I look like a tagger?" Irina scowls.

"What task treasurer?" Rian asked flatly.

"Eh? That's.... Eng... That's... " Irina looks very silly and misbehaved.

"Pff...." Rian held back his laughter.

"Eh? Rian can laugh?" Irina shut her mouth and felt guilty for being careless.

"Haah? What kind of person do you think I am? I'm human, you have to look at your style now, silly, so I laugh. Haha... "

Irina was just a whimper and was surprised to see the current figure of Rian, different from the first time she met Rian who was memorable cold and haughty. Irina felt a little more comfortable with Rian.

"What's wrong? I want to go home" Rian made Irina's misbehavior.

"Rian, I just want to apologize. So, I'm sorry because I thought it was you. Sorry," Irina lowered her head slightly in front of Rian.

"Why does he feel funny?" inner Rian.

"Eng... No need to apologize, forget it." Rian is preparing to leave. .

"Yeah, thanks..." Irina was still in her position.

"Emm, You? Your name?"

"Oh, my name is Irina,"

"Emmm.. Irina, until when do you want to stand here, I want to go home,"

"Eh? Oh yeah, sorry,"

"Haha... You want me to drive you home?"

"What's? No, I,"

Uncompleted Irina continued her sentence, suddenly Adrian had appeared near them. Adrian looks unfriendly and cold.

Rian looked at Adrian with a feeling of wonder, it felt like there was an unnatural aura that Adrian showed to him.

"Your boyfriend?" Rian asked casually.

"What's? A boyfriend?" Irina was surprised by Rian's question.

"Not... Wasn't... This is my brother, Adrian. I went home with my sister, thanks for the offer."

"Ooh...." I don't know why Rian was relieved.

"Irina, let's go home." Adrian pulled Irina's arm coldly.

"Hey, Senior! I know, I'm Rian. My dear Irina!" Rian slightly shouted as Adrian and Irina had gone some distance away from his side.

Adrian did not turn his head in the slightest as if not listening while Irina slightly turned her head and showed a look of face as if apologizing for her brother's attitude.

"What's the same guy? Possessive with your own sister? It's weird!" Rian did not care much and rushed home on his motorcycle.

***

Irina is already sitting in the motorbike with Adrian.

Along the way Irina and Adrian just keep quiet and drown in each other's thoughts.

This kind of situation does happen every day, they only talk to each other when there is something really important to say, for example, something is left at home so they have to come back.

Irina is usually very careless, in contrast to the disciplined and meticulous Adrian. However, despite that, Adrian will not let Irina in trouble. Adrian will still return home for the sake of Irina's needs, even with a cold attitude.

***

In room...

"Tock... Geck..."

Someone knocked on Irina's bedroom door. Irina hurried to open the door of her room. He had just finished his bath and was wearing clothes.

"Eh? Brother, what's wrong?"

Irina was surprised but not shown it. Irina felt strange with Adrian's attitude, didn't she usually not care? Why suddenly ask about the letter?

After all, yesterday Adrian himself asked Irina to stop receiving letters from Adrian fans. FREAKY!

"Not her own sister who asked me to reject all the letters?" Irina tries to remind Adrian of his ban the night before.

"Oh, that..." Adrian tried to be calm even though he eventually became a little misbehaved.

Adrian is in a mess right now. Regarding the letters, of course only the reason deliberately chosen by Adrian to start the real topic of conversation.

Adrian was only bothered by the after-school incident earlier. Adrian actually watched from a distance since Irina was seen rushing to Rian. Just that time, Adrian saw Irina behaving wrongly in front of men, in front of Rian.

Yes, Adrian of course is very familiar with the nature of Irina. Adrian could feel an impression given by Rian to Irina. Irina is no longer a child. Irina is a high school teen girl.

Wasn't there a time when Irina began to feel attraction towards the opposite sex?

And, maybe Adrian is a little worried. Mungkiiiin....?

"Forget over. I was just thinking maybe you forgot to follow my orders last night."

"Government?!" Irina just satin, a little not accepted by choice Adrian said.

"Who is he?" Adrian doesn't want any more pleasantries.

"Who?" Irina asked back in confusion.

"Your friend in the parking lot, who?"

"Ooh, Rian. He's my best friend."

"Why did you approach her in the parking lot?"

Adrian's question was stiff and intimidating. Irina felt uneasy, as if she was making a mistake. Irina's upset.

"I have business with him, so I'm samperin him." Irina explained flatly.

"You guys, your business can be in class, right?" Adrian is more flat talk.

"Son, what's wrong with me?" Irina's getting upset.

Adrian was surprised, he realized this time again he only made things more uncomfortable between the two of them. Adrian was stupid.

Adrian is trying to create better conditions for both of them.

Adrian was already pondering his father's words, it was time to be kinder to Irina. Adrian may still not be as warm as they used to be when they were little, but at least Adrian should start trying to give a better impression to Irina.

The evil brother is not an image that Adrian wants to keep building. But the problem this time Adrian realized something, not only Adrian who was used to being cold, but Irina was used to accept Adrian's cold attitude.

It takes time and process to get warmer between the two of them. Adrian doesn't have much time left.

"Irina, I'm sorry that I upset you,"

"Eh?" Irina was stunned, only this time Adrian said sorry for his attitude.

"Irina..."

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Irina felt strange about her brother's attitude.

"Irina, you can't date!" Adrian said firmly.

"What's? Brother, don't accuse me recklessly!" Irina was upset.

"Dating just makes you stupid, too,"

"What?!!" Irina started to get emotional.

Adrian no longer said a word, just left Irina alone in her room. She could still hear Irina nagging herself inside her room.

Actually Adrian is disallowing his intention to be kind to Irina. Adrian is not ready and feels more comfortable being cold, this has become a habit. Adrian has not had a mature idea to start a better attitude to Irina.

"Rian's not my girlfriend!"

"Rian my best friend, I even just met him!"

"Sister, you're out of work!"

"Sister, sucks!"

Although Adrian has left Irina alone in the room, Irina still chooses to nag herself, no matter whether Adrian listens or not from a distance. Irina just wanted to vent her emotions of annoyance towards Adrian.

Irina was really upset with Adrian's attitude, now she chose to lie down lazily on her bed. Lying down made Irina look up to the incident she had experienced two days ago. Irina smiled to herself and felt stupid about her behavior these past two days.

Take Rian,

Forcing Rian,

Bringing Rian,

Scolding Rian,

Thinking of Rian,

"Rian?" Irina woke up from her daydream.

"Why do I think of him?" Irina patted her own eel.

"Hm.. Rian is actually cute... Eh??" Irina was getting weird with her thoughts

Irina recalled Veronica's words earlier as they were eating in the canteen while watching Rian from a distance.

"DID YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON HIM?"

Veronica's words were simple, but somehow tickled in Irina's ears as she recalled.

Wasn't it!

Not just Irina's ears that currently feel amused, there is a tickling feeling that Irina feels. Maybe it was like a butterfly was flying dancing in his feeling room.

Irina patted her little eel, "I am why? I have a crush on Rian?"

"I've only met two days, haven't I?"

Irina wonders to herself and inexplicably remembers Rian's face being parked while laughing at her, at which time Irina feels comfort, perhaps fascinated by Rian.

It was fun even if it was remembered carefully, at that time he was impressed... YOU MORON!
