Two months later, the calm morning atmosphere was so felt at the University of Harapan Indonesia but it was seen that some students in neat clothes wearing alma mater suits according to the majors were in the hall corridor with worried faces.
The day they had to fight for the thesis they had made in front of the examiners arrived. Students who have passed and succeeded with the thesis proposal are allowed to attend the first wave thesis hearing on this day.
Seen Shelo became one of the nervous participants while continuing to read and memorize every material that he had compiled as well as possible hoping that today will all run smoothly, he said, including Ayu and Mia who usually look more relaxed than Shelo. now also have to fight in earnest. Shelo's turn almost arrived with the number 15 and each student has 45-60 minutes to give a presentation and Q&A with the examiner lecturers.
“ Sequence number 15, Shelomita Deana Princess of business economics faculty. ” Call one of the lecturer assistants. Shelo sighed deeply to allow him to relax, tidying up his alma mater coat and hair ties while walking confidently into the hall.
There were already 3 examiners sitting there welcoming Shelo with hardcopy of the thesis that Shelo submitted five days before the proposal exam. The atmosphere seemed calm and certainly tense for Shelo who hoped to finish his lecture soon despite having been delayed 1 semester.
The presentation began, one by one Shelo gave an explanation of the research he took without any mistakes. The expressions of the lecturers seemed quite satisfied with the occasional nodding of their heads in favor of Shelo's opinion. 20 minutes passed for the presentation, it's time to get into the Q&A session where every answer Shelo gives becomes a huge determinant for his graduation. Without a doubt every question given Shelo was able to answer well, although of course there must be a revision to the script but he felt quite confident that the results would be in accordance with what was really done and learned without plagiarizing from anyone. The examiners objectively assessed the overall results of Shelo's thesis and let him out.
Long story short, all pesetas as many as 25 students have gone through and provide maximum struggle for their respective thesis. The results of the decision are already in the hands of the lecturers who increasingly make the participants so tense waiting for it.
Tension and worry is not only experienced by Shelo, but also experienced by Arvi who is currently waiting for news in his office. Many times he checked his phone screen hoping to get word of the results of Shelo's trial today. Arvi contributed quite greatly in helping Shelo finish the thesis, especially in terms of manpower.
He faithfully accompanied Shelo who almost every day for two months stayed up late until sometimes forgot to eat, the quality time of the two of them who were recently in kasmaran was also automatically lost because of Shelo who was focused on the script.
While loosening his tie, Arvi grumbled waiting for news and continued to monitor his phone. Resa who stood in front of him but seemed not to be seen laughing at the behavior of her boss who was just this first time lost her authority in front of Resa.
“ Ahem.. ” Resa deliberately gives a sign of his existence in front of Arvi who only focus on seeing the screen hp. It is not denied that all day Arvi is not focused on his work and thinks of someone who continues to fill the niches of his heart.
“ Oh, sorry Res, again no focus. ” Sahut Arvi after realizing the presence of Resa.
“ More worryin bu Shelo yes sir ?” Goda Resa to the point.
“ Engga too. just curious about the results of the script trial. It was late afternoon but no news yet. ” Reply Arvi while looking at the circular Rolex watch on his left hand.
“ Maybe in a moment sir. But I believe that with the ability of Miss Shelo must have graduated. ” Said Resa cheering Arvi who was also agitated.
“ Yaahh.. hopefully Res, this morning he was nervous until he had breakfast. Though breakfast is important for his performance today, vitamin preparation is also not brought.” Continue Arvi a little nagging but impressed funny in the ear Resa who saw so many changes since these two lovebirds are on good terms.
“ Waahh.. Only this time I see the father until this worry. It looks so important that Miss Shelo is in your heart. ” Said Resa mocked Arvi who finally became misbehaved as if prestige to admit.
“ Aahh. ga also. You're exaggerating. If there is nothing to do, I want to go home. ” Reply Arvi avoid Resa who suah make her misbehave, Arvi put back on her old brown suit and step towards the exit of the room.
Arvi's steps came to a halt when she saw Shelo with a cheerful face running over and hugging Arvi excitedly, to make Arvi surprised in front of some staff who were there.
“ Arviii. ” Shouted Shelo happily with the position of hugging Arvi getting tighter without realizing that several pairs of smiling eyes were looking at them.
“ I know you are happy, but keep my authority also dong in front of employees. ” Reply Arvi whispered in the ear of this little girl and instantly made her realize without a second thought to release her embrace from the proportional body of Arvi.
“ Hehehe... Sorry, to the atmosphere. ” Said Shelo while bowed shyly covering his face. Arvi immediately took Shelo's hand and walked out to the lobby of the company intending to bring Shelo home.
Arriving at the apartment, a large flower bucket and a teddy bear brown as high as 1 meter welcome the arrival of Shelo. After Shelo's departure to campus, Arvi rushes to prepare it all as a small surprise.
“ Congratulation. ” Said Arvi who was next to him.
“ Ga need to wait for results, I believe that your struggle for the last 2 months must have produced the best results. Good job Shelomita Deana Princess. ” Arvi said as she approached and hugged Shelo with a happy feeling and stroked Shelo's head. Happy tears were inevitable in the moment of Shelo's success in his education, Arvi's warm embrace reminded and made him miss the figure of a father who had long abandoned him.
“ Comfortable. Maybe if papa was still alive, he would also hug me warmly like this. ” Said Shelo was still comfortable being in Arvi's arms getting tighter.
After that romantic and emotional atmosphere, they changed clothes in their respective rooms. Shelo who had taken a shower and put on pajamas came out of the room to make dinner followed by Arvi who also just finished bathing out of her room.
“ Tonight we're dinner outside. Don't bother cooking. ” Sahut Arvi while taking a can of soda from the refrigerator.
“ You know, since the attention of the media. I became lazy to leave the house if it is not too important. ” Shelo replied while washing some vegetables and meat for him to process.
Arvi put down her drink then suddenly approached Shelo who was still busy washing vegetables and slowly hugged Shelo from behind with a spoiled expression that was rare.
“ Um... Oya, I want to discuss something with you. ” Said Arvi a little doubt.
“ What do you want to talk about ?? ” Tanya Shelo unsuspecting.
“ When are you ready to sleep together in the master room ?” Arvi's question immediately stopped the work that Shelo was doing.
“ You mean.... ” Uncompleted Shelo explained his words, Arvi sensibly explained the meaning of his words.
“ Don't think like that just yet. I mean we sleep in the same bed. That's aja. I've told you that I'm not the kind of guy who unlicensedly touches women. Moreover, I know that you are still traumatized to have a further relationship. ” Sahut Arvi while slightly stammered for fear that Shelo will think negatively of him.
But what Arvi feared did not happen, Shelo smiled at Arvi's words that stammered funny and turned her body to face Arvi who did not let go of her embrace earlier.
“ Why nervous, indeed I said you like that ?” Reply Shelo confidently much different from the previous who was always afraid of the atmosphere or discussion more intimate.
Hearing the answer and the smile on Shelo's face, Arvi's heart became racing, the air-conditioned room in the apartment became as if heating up and burning his body, Arvi's eyes fixed on Shelo's face, then the eyes… shelo's lips and neck. As an adult man in general, the turmoil that Arvi felt was so unbearable.
Arvi's right hand touched Shelo's left cheek and the atmosphere became more intense between the two of them, Arvi's body and face drew closer towards Shelo who was silent and washed away in the atmosphere.
“ I don't think I can hold it for too long, but by forcing you. ” Said Arvi trying to hold back her lust.
“ Arviii.. ” Sahut Shelo hesitates and avoids Arvi's gaze.
“ I wouldn't do that without your permission, so don't feel pressured. ” Arvi said gently and smilingly managed to control herself. Hearing that, Shelo again dared to look at Arvi comfortably full of relief. His heart was touched to see the sincerity of Arvi, the stranger who initially could only hurt him but it turns out that behind all that he was full of sincerity when loving a woman.
“ But I can't hold this one. ” Sahut Arvi while kissing Shelo's lips gently.
Such an intense kiss like a hunger continued, occasionally they took a breath and continued on again and again.. Arvi holds Shelo's waist with both hands and lifts Shelo's petite body to the side of the table near the sink which still has enough room to sit by Shelo, now their height becomes the same and the kiss continues for the next few minutes.
Dinner is not important for them now, because the love in the heart of Shelo and Arvi can not be dammed and continue to warm the atmosphere. Without Arvi realizing it, the woman who is currently kissing intimate with him is so valuable that it is able to make Arvi resist her desires and instincts as a man who is 10 years older than Shelo.
Arvi can only hope, though, shelo's trauma of sexual abuse can soon disappear at the right time and he believes that the day that Shelo fully belongs to Arvi will come even if he has to wait for how much longer.
