The Cowardly Yuria

Chapter 28 Historic Dusk

Weather forecast says tomorrow will be a sunny day with warm sunshine, Yuri already has plans to go to the shopping center to buy new comics.

Therefore, when he found out that tomorrow would be bright, he intended to wear dark red flatshoes that he bought not long ago.

Wearing black jeans and a T-shirt in matching colors to her shoes, Yuri completes her weekend appearance with a shawl bag**** that hangs over her left shoulder.

On a hotter day he was busy looking through all the books, rounding up the cover until the choice fell on a mystery horror genre comic.

"Please on the wrap," Yuri pinta told the cashier.

The middle-aged man immediately took out a paperbag to wrap the comic that Yuri bought.

"Yuri Hi!" greet someone suddenly.

Spontaneous Yuri turned her head and looked at Rapka who was standing right at the entrance, for a moment she was stunned because she did not think they would meet there.

"You bought a book too?" tanya Rapka saw the cashier who gave a paperbag containing Yuri comics.

"Ah yes, what.... Do you also want to buy something?" his reply.

"Well, would you like to accompany me?" asked Rapka while nodding.

Of course Yuri wants to do it because he is a human who cannot refuse, especially he is actually happy when he can be with Rapka.

After paying for his comic Yuri walks right next to Rapka, following where he goes while listening to Rapka's story is just like what he did with Imel.

"I was going to go with Noah, but he had a show with his family" Rapka said.

Once he thought Noah was lying like when borrowing a bicycle, he thought Noah was just reasoned and actually there was an appointment with Yuri alone.

But when he saw Yuri here now he was embarrassed to have a bad idea on Noah.

"How about we finish this, we go buy some ice cream? the weather is very supportive, isn't it?" tawar Rapka's.

"Well," Yuri said happily.

Rapka smiled happily, immediately he went to the cashier after finding the right book. Together they go to a nearby cafe, enjoying a bowl of ice cream that is refreshingly cold as well as sweet.

Rapka makes a lot of jokes that provoke Yuri's laughter, until they dissolve in time as if they were their own.

This is the first time Rapka finds the other side of Yuri who she rarely sees, the side that may have been only Noah knows.

As Yuri laughed her smile lines were clearly visible which made her look sweet, her eyes twinkled so clear as the Nile.

"Is there something on my face?" asked Yuri who was aware of Rapka's gaze at her from earlier.

"Ah, o. ya. "sahut Rapka awoke from her daydream.

"What's? what's up?" tanya Yuri began to suck the part of her face in confusion.

Rapka smiled slightly, feeling amused herself because there was actually nothing on Yuri's face other than sweet.

"Is it gone?" ask Yuri.

"Oh no, let me get it, yet" said Rapka pretending to punish Yuri.

He reached out rubbing Yuri's cheek, feeling the softness of Yuri's skin made Rapka quite unnerved for a moment. But then he immediately pinched it.

"Aw! Rapka!" yuri exclaimed in shock as well as pain.

"Hahahahaha there's only fat on your cheeks!" rapka laughed happily.

"What's? basic!" gerutu Yuri's.

Yuri who was increasingly upset then just pouted, silent a thousand languages until Rapka apologized.

Because Rapka is good at talking and joking with ease Yuri forgave him, they again cool down by chatting comics that are crowded in the conversation.

Satisfied with a bowl of ice cream they then choose to go to the park, enjoying the cool breeze on the day before dusk.

Sitting side by side for some reason now Yuri was not nervous anymore, when Rapka just looked at her heart as if it was about to explode so quickly thumping.

If you think again he feels he is living in a dream world, a world where he can laugh like most people. He can also talk loudly with the opposite sex even now befriend people who have a cheerful nature.

This new feeling of happiness made him smile a little, hooking his hair behind Yuri's ears down to hold back the laughter that was also about to come out.

"It's so pretty" Rapka said suddenly.

"You said something?" asked Yuri who clearly heard that remark.

"Your bracelet's pretty, did Noah give it?" ask Rapka with a smile.

"Oh. This is I bought myself from Grandma's friend," Yuri said looking at the bracelet in her hand.

"That's it, can I see?" ask Rapka.

Yuri nodded, she tried to untie the chain of her bracelet but it turned out to be quite difficult.

"Let me. "take Rapka.

"Oh, sorry.please." said Yuri immediately extending her hand.

"Wow your skin is so white!" rapka exclaims that even focused on Yuri's skin color far enough away with her.

Not so helpful to remove the bracelet Rapka instead juxtaposed her hand next to Yuri's hand, when their skin touched somehow the sting Yuri felt back.

Shocked his safe heart, making him flutter fast later.

"You also have a nice finger, too" Rapka's comment began to touch every finger of Yuri's.

Yuri only noticed how Rapka's hands then spread out her hands, linking them to each other until they clasped each other.

Rapka's grip was not strong enough but she could feel a pressure, making her then look at Rapka who had been staring at her with a smile since.

The first time they touched, Yuri not only felt happy but more so that she did not know how to express it.

Replying to Rapka's smile he reciprocated the pressure on his hands, wordlessly taking their eyes off each other to enjoy the romantic twilight.

......................

"Where are you going?" ask Grandma because after dinner Yuri immediately left.

"I want to read the book I bought this afternoon" he said.

"Oh.. Don't get too late, tomorrow you have to go to school right," said Grandma reminded.

"Well," said Yuri.

He went into the room and closed the door, taking the comic still wrapped in plastic in a paper bag.

With the help of scissors he took off his plastic wrap, laying down the body on Yuri's bed began to open the first courtyard.

But what he saw was his fingers, slowly he moved the fingers to find out how it felt because there was a strange sensation that had been tickling.

A second later his mind immediately flew at the twilight that had gone by, a twilight that he could not possibly forget. In the twilight created a memory that will become history in his life sheet.
