Forced to Marry an Old Man
TMPT - 11

Raul's expression became bitter. He lowered his head, propping his head up with his hands until Lana panicked.

He didn't think someone like Rual could be sad. But come to think of it, of course he could be sad. He's an ordinary man.

"Rul."

Raul looked up, smiling weakly at Lana. "You want to hear the story?" ask him weak.

Spontaneous, without thinking much, Lana nodded. Making Raul smile with relief, holding Lana's hand on the table.

"So .. gini story." Raul scrunched up a grim face. "There's a college kid who likes someone very much."

Raul's? He's a college kid so obviously it's him, right?

"He likes it so much. I like that guy. He is happy, he is willing to do anything for the person he likes. He even bought an iPhone on his birthday when he was just a college kid."

So that's how it is. Raul used to like someone that big.

"When the person he likes is scolded by his boss when his boss is wrong, the young college boy he goes all out. Sampe managed to make the company's shares fall drastically."

Until like that?!

"But the guy she likes turns out to have a boyfriend. His girlfriend actually has a wife."

"Jeez." Lana closed her mouth in surprise. I didn't think Raul was experiencing all that. Then he was not chosen when he was willing to do everything and the woman even menahingkuhan men?

"But, Lana, the college boy is not upset. He wants proof that he's worth more than a cheating pervert."

Lana got carried away and nodded. Moreover, Raul's expression was so reassuring as if he was recalling his memories for a long time.

"The college boy finally hacks the life of the person he likes. Ah, Lana knows hack? Simply spy. He's a little surveillance camera masang in all corners of the room people he likes, just to squirm him."

Lana gulps.

"But, Lana," Raul trembled as if he wanted to cry, "the college boy was actually considered a criminal. Precisely treated as a bad person who does not know themselves. But he is sincere. But everyone accuses him of being a criminal, so he's a criminal."

Lana's eyes are glazed. He does not know where is right where wrong, just that Lana was carried away by the feeling of Raul's injury. He wiped the tears on his cheek, feeling very sorry Raul had experienced that.

He deserves to be like this. Maybe because of past trauma.

"Lana," Raul smiled wryly, "that's the story."

Eh?

Raul let go of Lana's hand and laughed out loud. He held his head and continued to laugh loudly. Her head shook, as if she could not believe Lana thinking it was the real story.

D-BASIC FUCKIN' BASTARD!

"Lana." Holding back the laughter on Lana's red face, Raul tried to speak. "That's serious. That's the movie story."

Bodo! That's what Lana wanted to scream but was afraid that Raul would get angry, and then tell him to go to the old man's room.

Anyway he's a jerk! Raul fuck! You heartless bastard! He shouldn't be alive! He should have just died choking on a fly!

Aaaakkkhh!

"Huh." He heaved a sigh of relief after being satisfied laughing for five minutes. "The story's good, right? Lana sampe nangis."

Lana grabs the donut at the table with her own hands, choosing to eat rather than wrath.

"So, Lana," Raul again chatted, "Tujhe Karunga Result means I Want You To Be Mine. I want you to be mine—just mine."

Lana jerks. His eyes suddenly shifted to Raul, staring at the look in his eyes which this time looked like a real Raul. She smiled as she asked Lana to smile.

Which means this time he's not lying.

"I want to make you mine, no matter what the world says" he said. "I want to write your destiny, no matter what God says."

He spoke the meaning of the lyrics but very seriously looked into Lana's eyes.

"Your happiness, your sadness, your self, is important to me."

Raul's hand moved rubbing the chocolate on Lana's lips.

"Without you, I refuse to live."

He closed his hands without letting go of Lana's lips.

"This pain, this pain, is my love."

Raul's smile was perfect as he pulled his hand.

"That's what the song means, Lana."

Lana's stupid, so stupid to Raul. But Lana knew they were not talking about the meaning of the song.
