Can It Be Us?

Can It Be Us?
FIRST NIGHT


"Did he think I couldn't treat myself? Yes, I realize I was wrong. I was careless. But he shouldn't say that either. As if I couldn't treat myself." Ashana keeps nagging in her room. The woman was upset by Achazia's words while treating her earlier.


"Huh! Because I talk so much I get thirsty. What time is it?" Ashana looked towards the wall clock. His eyes immediately rounded large.


"A half hour one?! How long have I been talking to myself?!" Pekik Ashana's. Has he been raving for too long?


"I should be thirsty" Ashana walked out of the room. That woman is not the cowardly type. Not brave either. Midst.


"It's so dark" murmured Ashana. Because he had already memorized the floor plan of this apartment so he did not need to turn on the lights.


Arriving in the kitchen, Ashana immediately filled the water and gulped it down. He does not want cold water. It will only make him thirstier.


"Armghh!!"


Ashana was a little jumped at hearing that groan. He swept his gaze looking for where the source of the voice came from. "Where?"


"Armghh!!"


Ashana looked at the door of Achazia's room. The woman nodded. "Is it from Achazia's room?" Mumbled. Ashana ventured to walk closer.


Until both of his legs stopped at the door of Achazia's room. He put his ear on the door.


"NOT ME!!"


Ashana keeps her ears away from the door. The woman touched her chest which was beating faster. It seems he was scared. "Silence Ashana. There's nothing." Ashana opened the door slowly. The woman peered inside and found Achazia sleeping with a blanket on her body. But his body movements looked agitated.


"I SAID I'M NOT A JERK!!"


Ashana walked closer with slow steps. "It looks like he's delirious" the woman muttered.


Ashana looked at the pity of Achazia who seemed to be stuck with her dream. Achazia looks restless with sweat filling her body. Achazia is a man who can't sleep wearing clothes. But then he'll wear a blanket.


"Do I wake up?" Ashana Mumbles.


"YOU ALWAYS ACCUSE ME YOU BASTARD!!"


Ashana touched her chest which was beating faster. "Attractive." The woman reached out her hand touching Achazia's hand muscles. "Sir..." Call slowly.


Achazia did not wake up. The man still looked agitated.


"Sir.." Ashana sped up the movement of her hands to get Achazia up. But the result remains the same.


Ashana clucking. "LORD ACHAZIA!!"


Achazia opened both of her eyes. The man's chest went up and down. He looked at Ashana who was standing next to him. "You-you? What are you doing here?"


Ashana who was initially upset that Achazia was not awake now lowered her head. Forgot that this is Achazia's room.


"You were yelling so loud. I heard it in the kitchen. So I took the initiative to see what was going on." Ashana said softly.


Achazia turned her gaze. "That dream again" the man murmured softly.


"Mm. yeah, I'm back to the-"


"Don't" Sela Achazia.


Ashana looked at Achazia. "Don't you?"


"Sleep with me here tonight" said Achazia.


Ashana widened her eyes. As easy as Achazia was to ask him to sleep together? The woman laughed softly. "Sir, you're kidding me, right?"


"No, I need a friend." Achazia answered seriously.


"But, but it's-"


"You know I don't like rejection,"


Ashana throws her lips. Even if she doesn't want the woman to keep nodding. "Alright, but only accompany sleep, right?"


"Yes, come here."


Achazia shifts her body to give Ashana sleep next to her.


Ashana got into bed hesitatingly. The woman had a glance at Achazia who would be ready to sleep again. 'Is that why he will sleep again? Then me? Maybe tonight I won't sleep.' He murmured in his heart.


Ashana takes a back seat to Achazia. He doesn't want to. What is later instead of sleeping is watching people sleep. Ashana admits Achazia is handsome. So Ashana would not sleep facing Achazia.


"okay, Ashana. Youcan. Let's start," Ashana started closing her eyes. Trying to fall asleep. But for half an hour, he still had not come to dreamland.


"I have to how?" Ashana grabbed her hair in frustration. He envied Achazia who had fallen asleep without being disturbed at all.


"It was easy for you to fall asleep. I'm I-"


"GO!!"


Ashana surprised. The woman's reflexes came straight down from the top of the mattress. He looked at Achazia who might have experienced something that had happened.


"I HATE YOU!!" Bentak Achazia's. Which now seems worse. Veins of his neck until it was clearly printed.


"I have to how?" Ashana panic. The woman paced indistinctly. Confused what to do.


"Wake! Awake it!!" Ashana went back up to the bed. The woman wiggled Achazia's body harder for the man to wake up. But still.


"MASTER ACHAZIA GET UP!!" Ashana expends all her strength to awaken Achazia. But the man did not wake up. Even worse than before.


"MASTER ACHAZIAAAAA!!!"


"NOOOOO!!!" Achazia woke up in a messy condition. The man rubbed his face rough. Why is he dreaming like that lately?


Ashana who was next to Achazia was afraid of the man for nothing. The woman flicked her hands in front of Achazia's face. Make Achazia look at him.


"You okay?"


Achazia held her head that was suddenly dizzy. "You-why did you show up in my dream?"


"What?"


Achazia. "Yes, you're in my dream."


Ashana scratches her non-itchy hair. Why is this suddenly? He had never been in contact with Achazia before.


"Mm. Maybe because I woke you up, so I appeared in your dream" Ashana said.


Achazia sighed softly. The man leaned his head. "I have to how.."


"You having a nightmare?" Ashana ventured to ask.


"Yes" replied Achazia without opening her eyes.


"My mom says, if you're having nightmares, hug someone while you're sleeping. If you don't, you can hug anything" Ashana said, providing a solution for Achazia.


"Hugging someone?" Achazia.


Ashana nodded. "Yes,"


"Alright," Achazia took a position to go back to sleep. The man faced Ashana. "Cabin,"


Ashana scrunched her forehead. "You mean?"


"Come, I need a hug" Achazia had already stretched out both hands. Waiting for Ashana to welcome him.


"But do I have to?"


"Who else can I hug?"


"You can hug the pillow roll or----"


"No. I don't want to hug a dead thing." Achazia.


"But I--"


"You're refusing?" Achazia stared at Ashana. Not sharp, but his gaze was like that.


"Alright," Ashana welcomed Achazia's embrace. The woman was sorry to have spoken like that.


"We're sleeping" whispered Achazia right next to Ashana's ear.


Ashana nodded lethargicly. But he was finally able to sleep well tonight.
