A Flick of Asa For Love
CHAPTER 65

...***...

Everything has been proven. A belief that he holds actually makes him a fool who is blind to the truth. He wanted to spill his disappointment, but he realized that the real culprit here was himself.

He who could not see the way Vina looked at him with love and longing. Thinking that Vina did that was only out of empathy for him. He underestimated all Vina's attention to him. He did not interpret it as a form of love, until finally making Vina do it.

What disappointed him more was he who could not see the honesty in Widya's eyes. He insulted her, humiliated her, accused her. Anything that makes the woman feel cornered and unable to defend herself, because her lover already does not trust her.

After gathering with his friends without Widya there, Nathan hopes everything will return to how it was. He has already pleaded guilty.

However, one question that comes to Nathan's mind, where does Cindy know all about him? “Ah! Stupid time with two con girls like them. I don't care anymore!” furious Nathan.

...*** ...

Nathan is going through the routine as usual even though the guilt is still felt. He tries to let go of what happened to him. Starting from the departure of Widya, used by Vina and Cindy. Even her mother was disappointed when Nathan told her everything.

“Mama already knew, that it was not Widya who did it,” Liana said after Nathan told her about Vina's attitude towards him. “Mama told Nathan not to trust too much. You have to prove it yourself. Didn't you ever say never trust anyone, even if it's your brother?” That was Liana's advice to him.

But, it all happened. Time cannot be repeated. All he has to do is fix the mistakes that used to not be repeated again, hopefully not too late.

A few days later, Nathan decided to leave his home. Renting an apartment in the middle of the city closer to the campus. He wants to be alone and calm the mind.

Liana also contacted him many times, saying that Vina was eager to meet him. “Udahlah, Ma. Tell Nathan to get busy preparing for hissis!”

Nathan was really reluctant to see Vina. However, Vina did not give up. Since their return from the club, Vina feels there is a change in Nathan. Though when they left, Nathan was fine, even he who invited Vina to meet. But now Nathan is avoiding him. His number could not be reached at all.

“Did I say something while drunk? Did I speak wrong? What happened to Nathan?” ask Vina in frustration. “If there is nothing, why is my phone number back on the block?”

When he asked Nathan's mother, he did not answer her question, instead asking her to immediately tell the truth. Why did Nathan's mother say that too? Honest about what? Vina did not understand the meaning of their question.

Until Vina was desperate to meet Nathan on campus. There, he meets Cindy. “Cin, do you know where Nathan is?”

Cindy smiled wryly. “Search by yourself! If Nathan wants to meet you, then? Is it not more embarrassing to your face?” cynical Cindy.

“You why the hell, Cin?” Instead of answering Vina's question, Cindy left the girl.

He also had met with several friends of Nathan and the answer was the same, they prefer to avoid rather than answer the question. Until Vina heard her phone ringing and immediately picked up without seeing her name.

“Where are you, Nath?”

“I'm in front of your apartment, Darling.”

“Exel?” Vina kept the phone away from her ear and looked at the name on the screen. “Sial!” vina Ogat.

“Why be surprised, Darling?”

“What are you doing in my apartment? I'm out again!”

“You're looking for your ex-fiance? He won't want to find you. He is angry and disappointed with you.”

“Lying! What have you said to Nathan?”

Vina begins to get upset, until her sense of hearing catches Nathan's voice. He immediately turned his gaze toward the source of the sound, and right. Nathan had just come out of the library and was walking with his friend.

“Nathan!” Vina yells.

Nathan, who heard Vina's voice calling out to him, tried to avoid her by pretending not to hear and continued his footsteps. Until he was finally confronted by the girl who really did not want him to meet.

“Where are you going?” vina asked gasping, after running after Nathan.

“Gue first, Nath!” saying goodbye to a man who was with Nathan. Nathan answered with a thumbs up.

Although he was left with Vina alone, it did not undo his intention to walk. He still continued his steps, making Vina a difficulty to compensate.

Vina was still trying to make Nathan stop by pulling his hand. However, Nathan immediately brushed it off. “Why are you, Nath?” Silent for a moment. Vina looked at Nathan's back who was still away from him. “Kalo I'm wrong, I'm sorry. When I was drunk, did I do something that hurt you?” continued Vina. Not getting an answer, Vina began to grow angry. “Please reply, Nath!” vina yelled annoyed.

Nathan stopped his steps. Staring at the girl who has destroyed her romance with Widya. “WHAT SHOULD I ANSWER, HUH?” nathan snapped no less tightly, to make all the students who were around them turn their attention to the two of them.

Vina started to get scared hearing Nathan's screams. “Lo that should explain everything! Lo pretends to be stupid and I follow stupid because lo!” Nathan started pointing at Vina's face with his index finger, a sign that she was already very angry.

“What should I explain, Nath? What am I wrong?” asked Vina with a trembling voice. His eyes began to water.

Nathan let out his breath. “Do not pretend to cry again, lo! I will not cheat anymore! I already know everything, what you did to Widya, and because you did it all! I ALREADY KNOW!” Nathan emphasized his last sentence.

“And you know? I hate the same you! You've made my relationship with Widya destroyed and that also makes me destroyed, Vin! I'm sick of your theatrics, so don't ever show up in front of me again! Lo temen the jerk I ever had.” Vina's face began to pale. He lowered his face in fear, seeing the radiance of anger from Nathan's eyes.

He was too shocked to hear Nathan's words. What does the man in front of him know? Widyah? Does he know what happened in the pool and what he did? However, Vina tried to catch her breath to restore her heartbeat.

“Don't ever see me again, or I'll be la-” Nathan's words stopped. Vina raised her head and saw a girl standing next to Nathan.

***

Widya was walking out of the campus office after taking care of the administration, when she saw some students gathering like watching a show. Mixed in the voices of some students who had started whispering, Widya also caught two familiar voices. That's Vina and Nathan's voice. However, Nathan's tone of voice sounded abnormal.

Widya immediately approached the group of students to see what happened, and it was true. He saw Nathan standing in front of Vina with angry eyes. In fact, it was more than the anger he received a while ago. He could not bear to see Vina's fear of Nathan who was overcome with emotion.

Widya walked up to Nathan and immediately clasped his hand, hoping that Nathan would end it immediately. “Already, Nath!”

Nathan stared for a moment at Widya's pleading face beside him, then Nathan closed his eyes. He reassembled his consciousness when he realized what he had done and said, making everyone look at him.

His emotions had already mastered his mind and his wits. Make him pull out the other side of a Nathan. He hated doing this, unleashing all his anger uncontrollably again.
