the light of love

Expressing Feelings

In the evening at the Adhitama residence, Ana as usual will teach carrissa twice a week. It didn't feel like a month ago to be the boy's private teacher. Ana meets up with Danita and sebastian in the living room, makes small talk and rushes to Carrissa's room on the second floor. When walking in the hallway, suddenly the door in front of him opened. Rei came out of his room and saw Ana.

Ana stops her steps, she remembers the incident this morning when Rei claimed to be her boyfriend and said she liked him. Ana was about to ask for an explanation, but just opened her mouth to talk, rei had already pulled her hand and entered her room, then closed the door.

“Kak rei want what?” tanya is suspicious and a little scared. He remembered the incident in the equipment room first.

Rei was silent for a while, looking at ana very deeply. Highlight the eyes that always make your heart beat great, like this time.

“I don't know if you're aware of this or not, but as I said earlier this morning” rei stopped for a moment “I like you ana, I want us not just as friends, but more than that” rei said straightforwardly, seriousness appeared on his face.

“A I” ana stammered, surprised by a very sudden rei statement. He was confused as to what to answer.

“I did not make you to be my girlfriend now” said Rei who saw a confused face ana. “You thought first, about your feelings. All you need to know is that I am serious about you. Don't know why when I'm with you I feel like I've found peace in my heart. There is a feeling that I want to always be close to you. I can't lie to my own heart if I admire you, I hope you understand how I feel na”.

Ana is stunned, It's not the first time for her to get a love statement from a man, but somehow this time it feels different. His heart rippled to hear Rei's words, his heart beating very fast.

“Cewe who was this morning?” ana asked the question that had been running all day in her heart.

“She friska my ex. We have been broken up for a long time, but he asked me to return and chase me even though I refused him” replied rei. “Sorry that he spoke harshly with you. But after what I said to him earlier, I'm sure he won't bother you or me again”.

“What if one day I am in his position? you're gonna treat me like that too? Do I make another girl?” ask ana.

Rei flinched, not expecting to get such a question from ana.

“It may not happen ana, my feelings for you are different from others. I won't leave you or hurt you. I promise I will try to be the best for you and will always make you smile happy ana” rei face looks very earnest.

Momentary silence. Ana's mind ran everywhere, recalling everything she had experienced with Rei. Undeniably, all this time Rei had managed to gain a place in his heart. Actually in the deepest corner of his heart he had also realized that he liked rei. But he still hesitates if he has to establish a serious relationship with Rei, given his track record as a man who often changes girlfriends. Ana is too afraid of being disappointed.

“Wait a minute” said rei, then walk over to the table and pick up something on the drawer.

“This what?” tanya Ana, took the box and opened it.

How surprised ana turned out to be a necklace with a heart pendant of a very beautiful jewel.

“This what?” ask ana again.

“This kalak” reply rei.

“Yes I know this is a necklace, but why do you love this to me? I can't accept this” ana scrunched her forehead staring at rei.

“I beg you not to refuse, this is not worth how compared to the answer you will love later. If you accept me, you wear that necklace. But if you are behind it means I have not been able to get your heart” said Rei staring at ana expectantly.

Ana let out her breath. A feeling of worry permeated his heart.

“I.. will think this kak” said ana, can not decide the struggle in her heart at this time.

“Still ana” says rei smile.

Then ana came out of Rei's room, with mixed thoughts. When he opened the door, he was shocked by Carrissa who was standing not far from him.

“Ca carrissa. sorry you nyariin sister ya” said ana stammered, felt wrong because she just came out of the room rei.

“Ga what sis, I just came out of the room kok” said carrissa, looking at ana with an illegible look. He glanced at the box that Ana was holding, Carrissa knew enough what was inside.

‘Quick movement also turns out kak rei’ carrissa said inwardly.
