Twins And Falling In Love
78. Beachside
“Sister, why are you crying?” EL immediately raised his hand to wipe away the tears on Olivia's face.
“Bring me out of here, I want to get out of here.”
The man nodded obediently. He did not understand sitting the problem that had just happened in the room, he would see the recording that happened later, now he would take care of his broken lover. He could only conclude that Olivia had just lost her debate and the man only wanted this woman to stop crying—and he was grateful that Olivia allowed EL to accompany her in her weak moments.
.
Two hours have passed since they left the party building, now Olivia and EL are in a car carried at high speed by EL. Both of them sat in silence while enjoying the night breeze that swept across their faces, EL took the initiative to lower her car window so that Olivia felt more relaxed. The man was completely confused by Olivia's attitude just now at the party, he did not understand why Olivia came out of the room in tears and anger—should the woman sing a smile of victory because it had managed to corner Professor Sebastian. But the EL chose to shut up first while giving time for the woman beside him to calm down.
Olivia asks EL to take her away from the party, she asks to be taken to a quiet place and away from the city center. This kind of impromptu request certainly makes the man go awry—if he chooses a place too far, Olivia will think EL took advantage of the opportunity; but the place that was too close also did not answer the needs of Olivia—, but finally EL decided to choose the beach as an alternative place to be alone and scream loudly.
EL put his car on the side of the road. Seeing the condition of his lecturer who was still pensive, the man took the initiative to open the door for him, but the woman actually went straight out by leaving her shoes in the car while carrying a bottle of champagne that had been bought by EL from a restaurant at a party— at Olivia's request. To be honest what the woman would do in this place with an unopened bottle of booze was still a mystery to the EL, but he decides to be Olivia's bodyguard only until the night ends—and he will let Olivia do whatever he wants
Olivia stepped steadily towards the sea, she let her tie feet feel the smooth texture of the brownish sand underneath, the salty smell immediately greeted her sense of smell and although the wind was cold and strong as night fell, the woman chose not to care. He continued to step to the place where the water and sand met, playing the tips of his toes for a while while letting the waves sweep his eyes.
He stepped back only to put some distance between himself and the seawater that was about to set in, and without a second thought Olivia immediately tore off the aluminum wrapper from the drink bottle in her hand. Olivia searched for a fairly dry spot nearby before she decided to sit on a stretch of sand. The EL remained close by, without invading Olivia's personal space, without trying to create talk or questions. The lecturer was in need of venting his emotions and the man was quite aware of the steps he had to take.
The cool attitude that EL wanted to give began to fade when the woman twisted the wire ties around the mouth of her champang bottle, which she had, pulling the coarse brownish cork in a hurry and without further ado directly drank the contents of the frothy drink straight from the bottle. Maybe if Olivia just inserted her drink EL will not be too worried, but the woman drank like a person who just finished running the race.
“Sister, please stop being silly. Do you want to talk about what happened? Seeing you become messed up like this just frustrates me.” EL crouched down beside her while pulling the bottle in Olivia's hand.
“Aish! Let me drink this.” He elbowed the EL violently.
The woman returned to vertical champagne a lot, inwardly hoping that the intoxicating effects would come soon. So that he could hide the pain in his heart through the drink in his hand.
EL let out a long sigh, he stood up to take off the Jas he was wearing, enveloping Olivia's body with his Jas while considering sitting next to his lecturer.
“Tell me, El” Olivia patted el on the shoulder and pointed at the empty spot beside her for EL to sit there, “What are your future plans?”
“I need to know that you have a dream for yourself.”
“Of course I have. I want to make my own consultant without daddy's help and if I can be a little ambitious, I want to develop a region that is still underdeveloped” EL answered swiftly even though he was confused by the impromptu topic that Olivia chose.
Olivia gave a small smile while thrusting a bottle of champagne to EL—which she immediately rejected—then the woman upheld the foamy liquid again.
“Sister, what really happened? Why are you trying so hard to get drunk now, hmm? Did something bad happen?” Ask the EL gently.
Olivia sucked up her snot remnants and laughed cynically, “Bad? No, bad is not even enough to describe it.” He turned his seat to face EL on his right side, shaking both legs so he could look at El comfortably. “You know el, I am a very introvert, I am very difficult to communicate with others, but, I trust others easily, I always trust others, I have faith that everyone I meet has no evil intentions—until they prove that I am too naive. Usually when I realize that I have been fooled, I will be the one who gets hurt and that becomes my downfall point.”
The woman had never chatted long about herself before, so EL enjoyed the moment when Olivia was still conscious enough to talk about things that made sense. The man was very curious about anything about Olivia, he wanted to know her past, her difficulties, her sadness, and he wanted to be where she could lean.
“But I did not expect my naive thoughts would actually be my weak point,” Olivia continued her talk. “The rotten man was the only one who did not look at me cynically on my first day at work, and I immediately trusted him as my role model. It hurts me because the person who stabbed me was the one I never expected to do that.”
“Sister, I thought you were going to take this case to court. Hey, I can help you, I'll find__”
“Have” He opened his hands in front of the man's face. “I've decided to let go of this problem.”
“Tapi—”
“And after this semester is over, I will resign!” He shrugged his shoulders and then gulped back the drink in his hand.
