Vortice In Vendetta

Chapter 8: Take Me Out of the House

“Still feeling? Really hurt huh?” asked Yudha who she only answered with a sledgehammer.

“I failed to make that promise.” He said with tears while propping up his forehead on the hand of Yudha who had been holding.

“I know kok.” Yudha patted the girl on the shoulder slowly which made Aksa peaked and immediately ran out of class while kicking the table so hard.

“Your husband is jealous.” His whisper in Jea's ear, then pulled out the girl's hair which began to scatter over her pretty face.

“Our relationship is not that special.” Answer's short.

A sudden announcement just came out of the direction of the speakers installed in every corner of the class. All classes today are canceled because there is a sudden event among teachers.

The announcement drew cheers from students still in their classes. Likewise with Yudha, he immediately pulled out Jea's hand and took her outside the school building to head towards the nearest bus stop.

They had a reunion after a long separation. The two have been close since that incident. But because of the unpleasant feelings that arose between Aksa and Jea a year ago, the girl decided to stop communication between them.

But still nothing has changed. Both are as warm as ever. The seed of love that had grown seemed to shine again even though no one tried to express it.

They had a reunion to one of the orphanages they frequented. The place that also became Yudha's escape in every problem. They had friends and relatives who loved him there, and there was Adelio, who spent most of his time as a volunteer.

Since Mr. Sanjaya takes Jea out of her apartment, Adelio gets more benefits that he has officially used to donate to the orphanage on behalf of his sister. he also survives the same money and shares it fairly with the orphanage children.

he also opened a small cafe business that was handled directly by Yudha and located near the orphanage. Yudha was really treating his baldness.

he met people he loved so much in one place thanks to Yudha. he had replaced her to look after and care for them. And again, Adelio no longer need to feel soy sauce if there. Because there are so many people guarding it.

“thank you.” Say it with sparkling eyes.

“The pain is gone?” yudha asked which she answered with a nod.

Yudha guessed it right. The pain he meant was because of his longing. Since he had to avoid Yudha, he had to sacrifice his time with his little family in the orphanage.

“Abang?” he screamed hysterically and ran towards Adelio as soon as he saw the young man coming out of the parlour building with an apron attached to his body.

“Princess brother.” He said as he received the warm embrace and kissed his sister's forehead repeatedly.

“Abang where to go? Cafe?” she asked as she raised her head to look at Lio's face, she was even too reluctant to let that hug off her body.

“Brother's feet are better. Even my brother can run now. Although sometimes still like dizziness.” The girl stared fixedly at the sister without wanting to take off her embrace.

“Whose is it?” ask the girl with teary eyes.

“Udah two years lo Je. There's nothing to worry about anymore. Brother is healed. Papa you keep his promise. The treatment went well. And my brother is happy here, with the kids, taking care of the cafe. There's Yudha too.” The girl nodded, she wiped her tears and tightened her embrace to the older brother.

“Should be the same brother as you. Akeno is okay, right? He keeps his promise, right?” lio asked worriedly while letting go of that hug.

“Nothing happened. We don't do anything weird. He kept his promise. It's just a contract marriage. Nothing special.” The girl was convincing.

Unintentionally the incident was witnessed directly by Aksa who apparently followed Jea from afar.

That day time seemed to run very slowly, especially for Aksa.he surrounded the front garden of his home complex while continuing to daydream and hope that his heart will arrive and smile at him.

The sun was so cruel to him. That thing didn't even move a little.

“Aksa.” Shouted the girl disperse her daydream after almost a day of waiting.

“New home?” her tan was bland once the girl was already standing right in front of her.

Scenes outside the script. Should he cut the scene this time?

“You two came?” he said as soon as he saw the arrival of the girl with Yudha.

“There's something I want to talk about before I go home.” Said the girl in a serious tone.

“What?” Aksa glanced sharply at Yudha who was immediately embraced by the concerned.

“I know, it might feel very uncomfortable. I'm pampering. My job is to take you.” It was directly embraced by Jea.

“Be careful! Or Diandra will kill me.” His Guyon while waving towards Yudha, made the young man's steps feel even more meaningful. Her lips were filled with a smile, even though her feet were heavy to step up and leave the girl with another man.

“I go.” Said Yudha again while continuing to glance back.

“Walk correctly! Or you'll trip.” Said the girl with her big smile.

“You never smile that sweetly at me.” It was Sela Aksa who instantly distracted the girl.

“Aksa, I know all this time feels uncomfortable especially for you.”

“Ya?” Aksa was stunned, he seemed to catch a strange gurgle from the girl.

This is not a scene from a drama. The girl will not express her feelings this time. Because his eyes said otherwise.

“Receive my request for the last time.” He said without making small talk.

“What?” aksa replied with a trembling voice.

“Bring me out of that house. With Rayden and Raga. Their situation is better. And our deal is coming to an end. Your seventeenth birthday, stay a little longer. You can grant it, right?” it was the girl's insistence that made Aksa lose all her ability to speak.

“Jea..”lirih the youth was hoarse. But the girl just looked at him blankly expectantly.

“Two this year, what does that mean for you?” he said slightly stammered, as if the sentence was reluctant to come out of his lips.

“I'm happy, because I know the truth about my brother. They were next to them in their difficult times. Everything went as I wanted, I was so happy.” Said the girl with sparkling eyes as if her tears were about to collapse, overflowing from her beautiful eyes.

Eyes that could never make Aksa blink let alone turn her head. “I don't want to leave you.” Lirih Aksa with such a low tone of voice.
