A Flick of Asa For Love
CHAPTER 14

...***...

That afternoon it rained very hard. Looking at the window, Nathan looked out at the garden beside his house while holding a cup of hot chocolate. Honestly, he fretted and asked himself. What's with her heart and why she always feels uneasy, after telling the truth that she loves Widya, she said, but the sweet girl was still unable to accept her feelings to make her heart even more hesitant and desperate.

The thunderous sound of lightning, made the man flinch, and almost swore if only he was not afraid of the quality. One corner of her lips was pulled upwards, forming a slick smile that made her almost cry. Nathan felt that nature was laughing at him, as if the universe supported his languishing heart.

The rain did not stop and came down with a rush, while Nathan was still in his place. He still thinks how to convince Widya about his feelings, that in the bottom of his heart he loves Widya very much. Until the arrival of his younger brother who entered Nathan's room without permission, disperse the daydream Nathan.

"Bang, help Evan get PR, dong!"

Nathan turned his head, then turned his body to face the younger brother. "PR what?" tanyakanya.

"Mathematics."

Nathan grunts, even though he is lazy, but he has to help his sister. Evan is not as smart as his twin sister—Ellen. So Nathan had to go extra mile to teach his sister that. For a moment he forgot Widya, then switched to being a private teacher for his sister.

The sun emits its bright rays, shining warmly on the earth after a cold night in the rain. This morning, Nathan is going to college on his motor sport. The intention of his heart to pick up the beloved sun, who else if not Widya. Nathan thinks, if using the motorbike will be more romantic on the trip later.

With a heart that flowered Nathan stepped towards the dining table that was on the lower floor. There was already a mother and her twin sisters were already sitting sweetly.

"Well, your face was bright early in the morning! Like the guy who won the lottery" Ellen told Nathan.

Nathan pinched his lips, then pulled the empty chair beside his mother for him to sit on. "What kind of statement is that? Wasn't I always cheerful?" nathan replied casually.

"Even, usually also his face is bent like a complex mother-mak wallet!” chirp Evan while giggling come mocking his brother.

"Eh, what, on a play-stab, anyway?" hardik Liana on her twins, then turned to Nathan. A meaningful smile that he threw at Nathan, just showed that his heart was happy to see Nathan who was so cold, no longer as somber as last night. Yes, last night Liana caught Nathan continuing his daydream by the pool. Liana knows, Nathan's been hit by malarinduism.

"Morning, tuh, you have to be excited, yes, Bang!" Liana.

"That's a big deal, tuh, Mah,” Nathan said as he gave his two thumbs up. Liana also chuckled softly.

"Yes, already. Come on, we're having breakfast!” tell the mama.

Ellen and Evan immediately took the bread that had been smeared with peanut butter, while Nathan scooped the fried rice and eggs his favorite. They also had breakfast without talking.

After the breakfast drama was over, Nathan drove his sport bike at a slow pace. Although he hopes not to go first by Harsa or maybe Widya departing with Bowo—, his father Widya. Nathan must also attach importance to safety, speeding on the road is not a safe way to reach the goal.

"Gue must move quickly, before Widya's heart is captured again the same sort," Nathan's mind, equating Harsa with the rodent who likes to sniff.

Along the way, Nathan hummed. Singing the song 'Separuhku' belonging to the band 'Nano'. The song seemed to describe his current mood. His heart felt empty, half of his soul had been stolen by a creature called love. Nathan feels his life would not be complete without Widya.

A smile immediately rose from Nathan's lips, when he saw his heart was so charming with a white shirt and blue pants, and a blazer that matches his pants. So beautiful and graceful in Nathan's eyes. The man took off the helmet that protected his head, then stored in front of his body.

"Honey, you are so beautiful today!” praise Nathan. He swept his gaze from top to bottom Widya's body. With the style of his rang Nathan snapped his finger, acting like magician Romi Rafael with his flagship jargon ‘perfect'.

"Apaan, hell, Nath! Am I beautiful today?" Widya pretended to sulk, turning her face the other way in order to hide the red tinge that she believed had filled her blushing face.

Nathan chuckled softly, then got off his bike. Walking up to Widya who is still standing in front of the terrace of her house. Staring at the girl who was sulking while folding her hands in front of her chest. "Listen, yes, my dear, my love!" Nathan grabs Widya's shoulder, directing the tiny body to face her. The two netra now look at each other, before Nathan again said, "In my eyes, you are always beautiful. Anytime and anywhere. Especially in my deepest heart," Nathan pointed at his own chest, then slightly bent his body so that his face was closer to Widya's face. Sontak Widya pulled back her head. No doubt, his face was flushed with Nathan's behavior.

Seeing the change in Widya's countenance, Nathan chattered. “Eh, Wid, why did your face turn into a boiled crab?” ledek Nathan while laughing out loud. "But it's funny, I like it" Nathan added in between his laughter. Not accepting with Nathan's ledge, Widya also hit Nathan's arm with the module he carried. He also brushed off Nathan's still-at-home hand perched on his shoulder.

"Lo's so mean, anyway, Nath! Name my face like a boiled crab," irritated Widya while stepping first to leave Nathan alone.

"Eh, where are you going?" Nathan's gaze followed Widya's steps that were fixed on his motorbike.

"To college, Iah. You're gonna pick me up, right?"

Nathan's smile suddenly expanded, he immediately ran a little closer to the idol of the heart. "Yes, dong. Come, my daughter!" Nathan thrust out the helmet he had brought before. Widya grabbed the helmet, then put it on.

"Do you want me to use it?" Nathan's hand floated in the air, as Widya's head retreated a sign of refusing Nathan's help. "Yes, if you don't want to." Nathan lowered his hands limp, his disappointed face so clear.

"Come, walk!" take Widya ketus.

"Yes." Yeah." Nathan answered lazily, then rushed on his iron horse. It was followed by Widya who was piggybacking behind him.
