Calibra: A Delayed Taste
CALIBRA | CHAPTER 41

Audi slightly tidied his hair and dyed as he exited the elevator. He found Ibra sitting on the sofa waiting in the lobby. The girl immediately approached the cousin who immediately stood up as soon as she saw his arrival.

Before Ibra could speak, Audi immediately pulled him out of the hotel and looked for a quiet place that was safe from people passing by.

Audi felt a little guilty when Ibra grimaced. He forgot that the man was seriously injured. Looking to the left right, Audi looked at Ibra.

"Mas Ibra why, here? Very reckless, deh. It's not still sick, is it?"

Ibra who has been silent since now sees Audi in a stick. "You're not going to the hospital anymore?"

Whether it's a question or reality. Audi looked back at Ibra for a moment and replied. "Why indeed?" challenge Audi.

Ibra opened her mouth to make a sound, but Audi quickly cut her off. "I'm busy, lots of endorsements and photo shoots. Not to mention filming content."

"Some of us don't have an appointment, do we?"

Audi said it was as if they could only meet through a promise, not much different from a client who asked for his services.

Ibra smiled and nodded. "Mas understand."

Although in his heart actually felt flushed Ibra, he did not want to add more gasoline in their conversation.

"Have you eaten?"

"Udah," replied Audi briefly. Though not yet.

Ibra nodded back. A disappointed look vaguely on his face. No doubt Ibra hopes they can talk about this in a good and calm situation. While eating for example. But he also realized it was impossible.

"Regarding the buzzing gossip .. is it true that you are dating the actor?"

Because there was no reason to buy time, Ibra finally expressed his purpose here, to ask and make sure to Audi directly.

Although the bad reception that was aired by Audi was enough to make Ibra feel hit many times.

Maybe physically strong against the impact of concrete, but not with the little girl in front of him. Ibra is really made fretful now.

Silent. For the Ibra question this time Audi took a long time to think.

What answer should he give Ibra? Honest or lying?

If I'm honest, maybe Ibra will get bigger, thinking Audi is a girl who can control her feelings. But if it's a lie, what should Audi make excuses for? Acknowledge that all rumors are true?

"Cla? Is true?" Long time no answer made Ibra ask again.

Audi quietly sighed and exhaled slowly.

It was Ibra's turn to be silent. I don't know what kind of situation is going on between them. The relationship between the two is not even clear, but Ibra has dared to pick because of his jealousy.

"Mas just wants to make sure by asking directly to you."

"That means? What's for?" Audi is still with its efforts to challenge Ibra.

"Cla .." - The man pleaded.

"Mas Ibra has no rights, yes, make this thing the same as me."

"We're just cousins. Mas business Mas business, my business is my business. We have no right to interfere with each other."

"Have I ever asked you about my life? Did Mas ever tell you about Mas's problem with me? No, right? Yes, I also do not have to answer all the questions above."

Audi's words are increasingly striking Ibra. How difficult it is to align each other's egos. Ibra didn't not know Audi demanded a past story from her. He knew what was the problem between them.

However, Ibra also could not do anything when something else demanded her to shut up.

Somehow he was able to tell Audi the truth.

Staring fixedly at Audi, Ibra locked the eyes of the two in the same view.

"Then do you want to be who? Besides cousins and other kinships?" ibra said sincerely.

He really hopes with this Audi can see his sincerity. Although the percentage is only about 10 percent of a thousand.

Silently greeting them for a long time. The air seemed silent waiting for Audi to make a sound. Ibra waited patiently even though she knew what the answer was.

"Mas Ibra said what, anyway?"

Even so Ibra still does not waver. "You forgot we promised before, in this place, you will give an answer after Mas comes home from Bali?"

Audi looked dumbfounded.

"Now Mas has come home, even in circumstances far beyond plan. But Mas will still charge your answer according to our agreement."

"So Claudia, do you want to be Mas's partner?"

Silence ringing in Audi's ears. He could hear the wind talking about them. In the corner outside the hotel, under the light of the incandescent lamp above the two, Audi again made confused by the question Ibra.

Why did the man always manage to turn things around between them?
