Until You Fall in Love with Me

Ch.14

Margaret approached Hana who had just entered her hiding place. He looked confused, how could his best friend come to such a place and get to know strange children.

"What the hell is this place? and who are they?" whispers of Hannah to Margaret.

"They.." Margaret hung up her words. He doesn't know what to explain it.

"They know me," he continued.

"Well," Margaret gave Hana a bottle of mineral water that she took on the table.

"You wait a minute, I want to talk to him," he continued, looking at Helmi.

Hana looked around and saw Helmi. Helmi's cold gaze made Hana feel uncomfortable. He approached Margaret and whispered, "She's so full of.." and then darted out.

Margaret came back and threw her body on the seat made of used car tires.

"Your friend?" ask Helmi.

"Uhm.."

Helmi opened the bag she was carrying, then pulled out a brown envelope from inside. He peeked at the contents, then thrust them at Margaret.

"The motor sold to Leo,"

Margaret looked at Helmi with a puzzled look, then looked at the envelope proffered to her.

Just this time he found a fair person like Leo. Normally, when Margaret handed the prize to the second champion, they never split it like this.

Margaret grabbed the envelope and poured out the contents.

"30/70. He took a 30% share of the sale. And that's the rest." explained Helmi.

Margaret did not know how much the motorcycle was selling. But the money in his hand was still very much left. He didn't know what to do with the money. Because he is not a man who lacks money.

Margaret sighed, then put the money back in the envelope and put it down.

"So in to the cash, brother. Once in a while there will be children who need.." said Margaret.

Helmi raised her eyebrows and looked at Margaret. Then he breathed his heavy breath.

From the beginning Helmi was always curious about Margaret because Margaret had never told her about her life. He just said that his dad used to beat him up.

Want to ask, she felt sad. He appreciated Margaret's privacy. But it's been 3 years they've been friends, and she doesn't know anything about Margaret.

He did not blame Margaret, as he himself had never revealed his identity to his friends. Including Margaret.

They all respect each other's privacy.

"Re, what if you stop?" said Helmi who made Margaret frown.

"Next time do not follow again," continued Helmi who made Margaret turn her head and looked at Helmi with a disapproving look.

"You've gone too far, I don't want you to sink any deeper. In the community there are so many dangerous gangs." said Helmi.

"I'm just racing, no brawl!"

"I don't want you to be affected by what I and the kids did. We used to be looking for trouble with the other Gang's kids. I don't want you to get hit,"

"Let me play with them. I can give you the gift" Helmi continued.

Margaret let out a long sigh, then approached and sat down beside Helmi.

"I don't want the prize" said Margaret, bowing her head.

"Can't you just listen to me for once!?" bentak Helmi's.

The Helmi that Margaret had known all along was a cold yet gentle man. He never raised his voice despite fighting with his friends. He prefers to be quiet rather than get carried away by emotions and explode.

But..

Margaret was confused as to what to do. His hands started to sweat, his chest felt tight. Suddenly he wanted to cry.

He understands himself the most. She is not as easy to cry as most women.

His eyes began to glaze over. He gripped tightly at the end of his jacket.

While Helmi who was just aware of what she had done also felt guilty. She had vented her personal emotions on Margaret.

"Re, sorry I don't berma~"

Margaret got up from her seat and ran out.

"Re, wait!"

Margaret could not hold back her tears. He pulled Hana who was chatting with Dion in front, taking her running towards his bike.

"Ride up!"

The bewildered Hannah could only comply and ascend as soon as Margaret started her engine. Margaret stuck her gas and drove her bike at high speed.

"Margareth!" helmi shouted as she ran to catch up with Margaret. Nil.

"Damn!" helmi's Ogot.

Dion who witnessed that came straight to him.

"Well, is that a cry? lu, is that concrete boy crying?"

"Great you, I'm trying desperately to make him cry until reddened.." continued Dion while giving his thumbs up.

"Argh~ brisik you boy!" helmi exclaimed in frustration.
