Dark Past Girl - 058
Fall in Love

After being satisfied with Selva's teasing, Marvin is speechless to remember the baby Selva told him about the other day. He was still wondering where Selva's baby was. Was he born safe or...? Marvin wondered in his heart and ventured to ask the fate of the baby.

"Selva, about your baby..." Marvin stopped his speech seeing Selva who was looking at him sharply.

"Sorry" said Marvin, who did not continue his question and got up from his seat. Then grab a blanket lying at the end of the bed to cover part of Selva's body.

"Rest, Call me if you need anything" said Marvin, who then stepped away.

"My baby was born safe."

Selva's words stopped Marvin from turning back to the body waiting for the next story.

"Woman gender and her age is two years older. She was taken care of by my cellmate who had already come out when my baby was not even forty days old. Although I'm very hard-hearted to part with her, but it's better than her having to stay longer inside the prison."

Hearing that, Marvin sat down next to Selva again.

"But... Can you meet him?"

"Yes, Ms. Ratna never forbade me to see my baby whenever I wanted. He's very kind. Even though we have no blood relation but she takes care of my baby sincerely without a penny in return."

"When did you last see him?" Marvin is still very interested in Selva's story about her baby. As if not in the least he looked down on Selva for having given birth to a child outside of marriage.

"I last saw him when I just got out of jail, he's been able to walk, I've had a lot of chattering too." Selva smiled remembering the cuteness of her little daughter. Where when he came, his little princess approached and invited him to shake hands as Ratna taught.

"You missing him?" asked Marvin who saw Selva's smile.

"Well..."

"When we can see it."

Hearing Marvin say so Selva was so happy and thought Marvin was also putting his heart on her. "Ah... What a pity I am" Selva said in her heart.

"Well, I went back to my room firstwell, call me if you need anything." Marvin got up and went back out. Selva stopped him

"Yes..."

Selva fell silent in confusion as Marvin turned back to look at her. His heart didn't want Marvin to leave, but what would Marvin think if he told him to stay in his room? Selva kept thinking what happened to her heart. Why since yesterday he felt so comfortable and safe with Marvin, whereas before he was so indifferent to him.

"Wadis five eight?" Marvin gives his signal if he waits for Selva to speak.

"E-no, Go!"

Marvin pinched his lips while shrugging both shoulders then stepped out without asking again.

"Kok went straight away anyway, not very sensitive." muttered Selva who still hoped Marvin turned his head before he left his room. But it did not happen so that made Selva who felt a little upset covered her entire body with a blanket.

After that day, Selva and Marvin are getting closer.

They often spend time together both in the hostel and outside the hostel. Like today Marvin just accompanied Selva to see her daughter. Although Marvin never promised, but Marvin fulfilled what he had said. Making Selva feel more confident if Marvin has the same feelings as he feels.

After Marvin escorts her into the room, Selva is unable to hold back her happiness. A happiness that he had never felt in his heart for a long time now re-exalted him.

Yes, a feeling of love that had not since when flourished in his heart. What is clear since they often spend time together, and Marvin treated him very maturely makes Selva sure of his feelings. Sure if a man like Marvin is what he's looking for.

"But do I deserve Marvin?" the question was in his mind. Makes Selva feel doubtful whether Marvin likes her too or not. Especially so far Marvin only shows attitude and action without ever talking leads about what he feels for him.

"Arghhh... I'd go crazy if I just wondered in my heart like this, I'd ask Marvin directly. But... Is it appropriate that I ask Marvin frankly about his feelings for me?" Selva hesitated to ask Marvin.

Selva thought for a moment about what she should do. Then he lay down and tried to close his eyes hoping to sleep and forget his anxiety for a moment, but his heart was even more restless so that he could not resist going out to meet Marvin in his room.

Just as Selva came out of her room, Selva went back to hiding behind her door when she saw Marvin talking to a woman standing at the door of her room. Selva tried to hear what they were talking about, but she had not heard anything, her heart was broken by seeing Marvin who told the woman to go into her room.
