Anna, Hug Me
Episode 8

🌻🌻🌻

The morning lecture was over, the students spilled over in the campus cafeteria which was comfortable to fill their stomachs after filling their brains early in the morning. There are some of them who choose to do tasks in the library, some are discussing in the park, there are some who return to the dormitory to steal time to take a nap.

Everyone is busy doing their daily routine except for someone. It was Angel.

Angel was sitting in class and pensive. He was seen putting on an impatient face while repeatedly turning to the door of his class waiting for someone. Yes, there is someone who always picks him up and accompanies him during the afternoon break.

He would usually go to the cafeteria together and spend time in the library. But today someone did not come. Dima didn't come.

Angel remembers last night. Could it be that Dima was really avoiding him?

Yeah, it's good that Dima understood what he said last night, Angel thought. But can't Dima say goodbye first? why did the play suddenly disappear.

A slightly unaccepting Angel tried to call Dima. Although he repeatedly called but Dima still did not pick up the phone, and it made him upset.

Angel who was determined then went to the economic building to find Dima. But he was surprised by the answers of his friends.

"The five? Hm, he didn't go to college, huh!" said Scott. Scott is one of Dima's friends that Angel knows is usually doing chores with Dima.

"You sure?" ask Angel. He doubted Scott's confession a little. At one time, Dima never skipped for education. The boy was very dedicated in terms of studying.

"Of course, you can ask others if you don't believe it" Scott said.

"Ah, so yes." said Angel with a disappointed tone.

"Didn't he tell you before?" scott asked with a face of astonishment.

Angel shakes.

"Any huh? very unlike usual. Did you guys fight?"

"Come away!" angel said as he left.

But Angel didn't run out of sense, he called Daniel, Dima's sister.

"Hello, Sister Angel what's wrong?" daniel answered as soon as the phone was connected.

"Oh, hello Daniel. How are you?" ask Angel Basa.

"good. What's up, brother?" ask Daniel again. He felt the impact of Angel's sister contacting him, not to contact Hans who is currently with him.

"Hm, why didn't Dima go to college?"

"Oh, that. Is Dima sick?"

"illness?"

"Yes. Brother Dima has a fever."

"Oh, yes, that's it. After college I will visit him. It was a long time ago, yeah. Greetings to Hans and Richard."

Angel hung up on her with a strange feeling.

Dima's sick? Thought astonished.

“Ah, he must have rained last night,” muttered as he stepped back into class for his next lesson. He missed lunch.

Angel shakes.

"The five didn't come?" ask Sissy. He knew the habits of his classmates.

"Yes, he's sick," Angel replied in an uninspired tone.

"Oh, pantesans. You guys are always together. It must be awkward to go to the cafeteria without her."

Sissy's words may be normal, but the sensitive Angel feels a bit of a sewot.

"Appaan, anyway! We are just friends" said Angel.

Although it has confirmed its relationship with Dima. However, during the class Angel did not focus on college, he always thought of Dima. He was worried between visiting her or letting her go and pretending not to know. Dima may have deliberately avoided it because last night he had rejected it outright.

After thinking about cooking throughout the lecture hours, he finally decided to visit Dima.

Angel rushed back to the dormitory as soon as the lecture was over. Arriving at the dormitory, it turns out Paula has also been in her room. Her roommate looks fresh after bathing.

"You're back?" greet Paula. "Where were you last night?" tanyakanya. Last night he was asleep when Angel came home and this morning he had not had time to ask him because he hurried to go to college for morning classes.

"I fell asleep in the library,?" angel replied as he threw his bag on the bed.

"really? Did Dima look for you last night?"

Angel nodded and changed into clothes ready to take a shower.

"Oh, thank goodness. I hope you're not mad because I called her. I've been worrying about you all night."

"That's okay, thank you for worrying about me" Angel replied. He hasn't been in a room with Paula, so he may not be close enough to her yet. But the girl had been hassled all night just for the sake of worrying about her, it felt like they could become close friends in the future.

"You look tired, are you sick?" ask Paula. He looked straight at Angel.

"I'm not the one who's sick, but Dima" Angel said.

"Five?" Paula was surprised to hear that. Did he tell the sick man last night to find Angel? His behavior is not justified.

"Yes, last night it rained."

"Oh, yeah. I'm relieved to hear that, I think I've had people who were sick looking for you all night,” Paula said. “Are you going to see him?" tanyakanya.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Can you take me," Paula asked in a clear tone. He was not familiar with Dima until he had to visit her when sick. But, he felt responsible for Dima's pain.

"May, I honestly want to offer you. Since you offered yourself so let's go see him. Wait for me to take a shower" Angel said as she walked into the bathroom.

"alright. I honestly feel guilty because it looks like he got sick because of me. Hopefully Dima will recover quickly," said Paula.

“Okay, I take a shower first. You get ready,” said Angel from the bathroom.
