When I Should Choose

Chapter 20 Days That Will Pass

On the way home from the airport, Holy begins to get carried back to his memories as he and Artyo enjoy the city streets on a motorbike. They can go wherever they want and tell whatever they want. Without realizing it, her tears fell back. Yes, Holy is indeed quite crybaby.

***

On plane.

Artyo could no longer hold back his tears. He sobbed while holding his voice so as not to be heard by the person next to him. The cry that she always did not want to show in front of her father, mother, and also Holy because she did not want them to be even sadder. Before leaving, she would often cry alone in her room.

Because previously he had never separated from his father and mother, at most only three days when he attended camping or basic training at High School. Plus now he had to go across a continent that was very far from his home. It was unexpected, but he tried to strengthen himself for the ideals that became his dreams.

Artyo recalled the Holy gift box, after wiping away her tears she opened her bag and took the box. It turned out that it was a perfume and a small piece of paper that read:

"This perfume is very suitable to be worn by those of you who like to attract women through fragrances, I hope that the woman who is captivated is a good woman. Haha... Oiya, but all you have to remember is that if this perfume runs out it is a sign that you must go home. I purposely bought a small one so you can go home quickly (the letter ends with a laugh emoticon and a love picture)."

Artyo smiled amusedly reading the letter and he sprayed a bit of perfume on his wrist. "Hmm, a very refreshing fragrance. Holy really knows my favorite," said Artyo to himself. Artyo keeps his bag back in a safe place and takes a comfortable position while reading a book. He must be ready for the long journey to get to Germany.

Holy arrived at his room, he was already calmer. He sat down in his study chair and prepared to open the box that Artyo had given him.

"Waw, what is this?" Holy was surprised to see a beautiful necklace with eyes a heart-shaped necklace with a small diamond in the middle. Holy who still did not expect to get the necklace immediately tried it in front of the mirror. A necklace that is very suitable for Holy use. She was stylish in front of the mirror while admiring the beauty of the necklace, even more so when the necklace glittered as it reflected light.

"It looks like this necklace is quite expensive," thought Holy while holding a necklace that was coiled around his neck.

"Why is Artyo so good?" holy asked his reflection in front of the mirror. "Why did he give this precious item away? The form is love again," Holy is confused but also flowery.

Holy took off his necklace and put it back in the box. As he looked at the box well, it turned out that there was a paper that folded neatly. Holy opened his fold slowly.

"Hi my best friend Holy. I'll make sure you read this letter when I'm away from you.

There are things I really want to say to you, but unfortunately I don't have the courage to say them directly. The point is, I want to spend my age with you. I want you to be by my side until you get old. I want to enjoy every cold night in your arms. Would you allow it?

I know now you have Natan as your boyfriend, but let me be your husband, Ly. When I go home and finish my education I will find a job and marry you soon. Are you ready?

If you are ready, please wait for me to come home.

I love you so much Holy, more than a friend."

Holy was flabbergasted reading the letter. His heart was warm, there was an empty space that began to fill with old dreams that he had thrown away.

It turned out that Artyo also had the same feeling as her. Holy who had been afraid and did not dare to express his feelings became convinced by his feelings.

"I want to, Artyo." Holy held the letter firmly.

"Hi Holy!" shouted Rere who had just entered the classroom. "Seeing that there is something different in you," Rere said as he watched Holy's face.

"I know, you just bought a necklace? How much does it cost? Looks expensive."

"Oh this, hehe I didn't buy, I'm loved by Artyo. He gave it to her before leaving for Germany yesterday."

"That's really good, I also want to have a friend like Artyo," said Rere with lips that are deliberately advanced.

"Tell me to buy it over there with Brother Oki."

"Noo, I have no relationship with Oki, now I have a new girlfriend named Reno. Hihahi. He's our age but from the faculty next door, he's handsome and athletic, cool anyway. I'll know you later but you can't have a crush" Rere's voice is like a train in Holy's ear. Fortunately, the teacher did not enter the class at the time.

"New boyfriend continues, even though the same Oki has not been a month."

"Jude, you can't be envious. You're pretty much the same, Natan."

Holy could only shake his head to see his friend who often changed his girlfriend.

***

Holy and Natan are meeting less and less every day. Natan can only promise that if her music concert is over she will give more time to Holy. Natan also promised to no longer breed when there is an offer to become a committee at major campus events because it is very bad for the value of his college and also the time of his courtship.

- Holy, tomorrow you have to come to the faculty music concert.

A short message from Natan went into Holy HP.

And Holy immediately replied to him.

hm came, didn't ya? I thought about it first.

- What the hell? I'll give you a special gift if you come. Okey?

- Haha okay baby, I'll come. I wait for the gift. (followed by the emoticon laughs his favorite)

***

The next day, Holy had already left for the performance building where his faculty music concert took place. Holy uses his favorite jeans skirt combined with a pink stripes shirt that makes him look simple but still stylish.

He did not forget to invite Rere to come and accompany him to watch the concert. Unfortunately Rere invites Reno to his girlfriend, so Holy has to be a mosquito repellent among them. He tells Nathan that he has arrived. Long enough the concert took place, but the message of Holy has not been answered Natan.

In the middle of the concert, Natan suddenly appeared in front of the stage and sang a song called Fix You from Coldplay.

Holy festering saw the charism of Natan with a voice that was quite melodious, he was speechless.

"This song is a gift to you Holy," said Natan closing his appearance.

Holy smiled happily, but followed with a doubt in his heart.
