Calibra: A Delayed Taste
CALIBRA | CHAPTER 51

Ibra came back when Kenan fell asleep. He was carrying a bag of snack crackers, he said to anyone who had found Kenan in the room. Looking briefly at the sleeping Kenan, he turned to Audi and Shireen.

"You want breakfast? No papa come out, Kenan let me wait," he told the two women.

But Shireen shook her head softly. "Same as Audi there. I'm the one here. There's gonna be a nurse checkin' in a minute."

"That's it, let me wait here, I also want to know the state of Kenan."

"Necessary. Ibra ate it."

Ibra was about to argue back, but then he was surprised by the sudden movement of Audi who stood up and walked towards the door. Both Ibra and Shireen looked at the girl.

"Where are you going?"

Audi clucked, he replied without looking. "Eat, right?" he said then closed the door.

Ibra and Shireen were silent for a moment, both of whom seemed to feel Audi's mood was not good. Ibra turned to Shireen again. "Yes already, I'm out, huh?" said awkwardly. He was insistent here.

"Eh, yes. No, Dad, go."

Ibra nodded with a thin smile, he then came out following Audi who had disappeared from view.

Audi walked quickly with a flat look, he entered the elevator and pressed the downstairs button. Before the elevator door closed, Ibra managed to hold it until she entered with Audi.

Ibra turned to look at Audi who had been silent since. He approached trying to embrace the girl with one hand. "Why you?" ask Ibra subtly.

"No papa." Audi answered short.

Ibra was silent, she knew Audi was lying. The girl's mouth cannot be hidden.

"Are you angry with me?"

Audience shakes.

"But you may be angry with me, "cursed Ibra.

"No! I said no!" audi unconsciously. His breathing panted softly as he threw his face away. "Udahlah, I'm tired. Mas Ibra why come with me?"

With a slow movement Audi broke away from the embrace of Ibra. Ibra who did not want to force it with a heavy heart kept her hand away. "Eat you."

"Aren't you waiting for Kenan?"

Is it just Ibra's feeling or Audi's voice that sounds upset?

Ibra understands Audi's mood is not good, although he himself is not sure what the cause is. Ibra could only come back closer to grabbing the side of Audi's face to look at him. "It's impossible for you to eat alone. Now, don't think about it, now we're just looking for food. What do you want to eat?"

Audi is back to throwing its face away. He refused to answer and quickly walked ahead of Ibra when the elevator doors opened. Ibra is chasing Audi again and again. Although actually he does not need to run following the steps of Audi which is fairly short even though the girl walks fast.

"Cla," call Ibra while equalizing the steps. "Hey, what's wrong with you, anyway? The road is slow, honey, it'll stumble."

"Claudia!"

Audi stop. He turned to look at Ibra in disbelief. "Mas just snapped at me?"

Kontan Ibra shook his head quickly. "No, sweetie."

"Obviously Mas Ibra just snapped at me!"

"Cla," please Ibra. He tried to get closer to reach Audi who immediately retreated to avoid it. "Okay, I'm sorry to sound yelling."

But Ibra only raised a little voice for fear Audi did not hear enough. Who would have thought Audi would have misunderstood what it is now.

"Don't tell me, sweetheart. Forgot if we had nothing to do?" syndical Audi.

"Cla?"

Audi turned around and continued his pace, this time faster to the point that Ibra was left behind, especially the man was instead pecking on the spot.

It was only when the sound of the horn ringing Ibra was flashing and quickly following Audi who had arrived on the side of the road. Ibra pulled the girl fast because there was a motorbike that passed quickly.

Ibra wanted to get angry, but she found Audi sobbing in her arms. The girl buried her face in Ibra's chest.

They were quiet for a long time like that. Ibra hugged and rubbed Audi's back and fine hair. When it was felt that Audi's cries began to subside, Ibra asked slowly. "What's wrong? You've been so weird since."

"Tell me, what problem do you have? What makes you cry? Or who made you feel like you?"

Audi was silent for a moment. He closed his face with both hands. "Mas Ibra, am I the cause of Mas and Mba Shireen's separation?" the question is unexpected.

This time Ibra was silent. His forehead crinkled in hearing Audi's question. Is there anything Ibra didn't know when she left? Or maybe Audi and Shireen got into something? Why did Audi suddenly ask that question?

"What do you mean? You do know Mas and Shireen split up because our contract is over?"

"What exactly are you? Hm?" Ibra grabbed Audi's face and looked at him deeply.

Audi is still gulping with reddened eyes. He looked back at Ibra with a tired feeling. "We're dating now, right?" chirps.

"What?"

"Iihhh Mas Ibra replied! Now we're dating, right? Hiks ..." whiney Audi rubbed his eyes slowly.

Ibra was on the spot. He blinked half confused.

"Well, if you want that, yes, we're dating. Although actually Mas amused to hear that word. Rather than dating, Mas actually prefers to take you directly to the submission, even if you are willing to be Mas's companion."

"Yes, we've been dating" said Audi.

"Aren't you going to get married?"

The audi scowled, while Ibra chuckled at the girl's hair. "Yes, we're dating. I'll wait until you're ready."

Audi smile. "Really?"

"Yes" Ibra nodded with a smile.

Ibra's smile grew wider as Audi threw himself into her arms. Audi silently smiled full of stratagem. In his heart he apologizes to Kenan and Shireen who may still expect Ibra to be theirs.

Because after this, Audi will really fight for his rights as someone who has long awaited the love of Ibra.

"Aren't you angry?" ask Ibra.

Audi just answered with a sledgehammer. He hugged Ibra as if afraid of loss.

"So you're angry about this? Because we're not officially dating yet?" Ibra's ears seemed tickled, he felt back teenagers hear the word dating, especially from his own mouth.

"It's not good that Mas Ibra often calls me darling, but we're just cousins."

Ibra smiled, they still hugged peacefully on the side of the road. Without Ibra and Audi knowing, Shireen who was about to follow suddenly stopped and looked at the two.

Right, he had been watching them for a long time, even hearing all the talk that somehow felt stifling to him.
