High School Bride
Juan

I just kept quiet when Juan asked like that.

" Let me meet your parents then" Juan said looking me in the eye

" Why do you want to meet my parents ? " me ask with raised eyebrows.

" I've heard all about you from Grandma, and I want to ask you something about your parents. " Juan got off his bike and walked to my house

"What do you want to ask my parents ? " me with a face that looks panicked

"I want to ask you why they hate you so much" Juan replied as he pulled my hand

But Juan pulled out my hand that was hurt by the whip.

"Aaaaaa.sick." I shouted as I felt a great pain while taking Juan's hand off.

"I'm sorry, because I pulled your hand so hard that you're in such pain" Juan said.

"It's okay, you better just go home, because it's been so night "reply back to me while looking at him

"Well I'll go home, but please let me see the hand I pulled. Because I want to make sure if you're hurt because of me or not." Juan spoke with a worried face.

"I'm fine," I pushed Juan to get him home.

But from far away I saw a neighbor who seemed to be passing by on this guava tree. I hurriedly told Juan to hide.

"If my neighbor sees me with a man, then he will surely complain to my parents" I murmured

When my neighbor was close to me, I then walked towards the house.

"Lho ..Nonik, how are you home ? Didn't you come to your Grandpa and Grandma's house ? Auntie saw your parents and your brother leave. They said they wanted to stay at your Grandpa and Grandma's for two days. But you're even home ? " ask Ira's mother

"I'll catch up with Auntie tomorrow" I told a lie.

"Did you dare sleep alone ? " ask Aunt Ira again

"How dare Aunt, "reply me while looking down.

"Yes already, if there's anything you're looking for Auntie huh ? " said Aunt Ira while smiling at me

"Hopefully Juan didn't hear my conversation with Aunt Ira" I thought

After Aunt Ira left, I walked towards the house.

"Let Juan be there, at least he'll be home soon. "I thought again

10 Minutes later someone knocked on my door.

"Tok. tok.tok "my door is constantly on tap.

"Before a second" cried out to me who was now in the kitchen.

"I just wanted to cook instant noodles, but instead someone came."guyuku with an annoyed face.

"Czech.." I opened the door.

With wide eyes I was so surprised to see Juan coming to my house. Even worse, because I was too hasty to open the door, I forgot to wear a mask and jacket.

Juan's expression was also so surprised to see me.

" Why are you even here ? If anyone sees how ? " I kept asking, but Juan kept quiet.

I saw Juan's eyes teary, he seemed to want to cry, but he was like trying to hold back his tears so as not to drip.

"I'm here to bring you food, because I happened to have not eaten either . And I just heard that your parents and your brother are gone. So I went straight inside. Can I eat with you ? " Juan spoke while looking at me with a look on his face that looked so sad.

"Better to take home the food, I can make my own food," I refused because it felt bad.

" Hmm..all right, then come on please come in, "I said as I continued to look at him

" What's wrong with him ? Why does he look so sad ? Was she scolded by Grandma." I thought

"Did you dare sleep here by yourself ?" juan asked to see my family's picture.

"This is my home, so why am I afraid." I replied. I took the dishes and the water.

We ate together in silence. After we finished our meal, we sat in the living room.

"Can I ask ? " Juan looked at me

"Can you ask what ? " I asked with raised eyebrows.

" What really happened ? Why is your face and body hurting so ? Were you hit again ? " Juan asked me so many questions. He looked down like he wanted to cry.

I was silent for so long, confused as to what to answer.

"I'm used to being treated like this" I said lowered my head.

"Why did they hit you ? What did you make a mistake ? Just tell me, consider me your confiding friend. I also know everything about you from Grandma" Juan said, looking at me.

I told Juan everything, and it was also free to hide something from him, because he also knew a lot about me from his Grandmother.

"Are you going to agree to marry Grandpa Jaya ?"juan asked in tears.

I was confused because suddenly she was crying.

"Yes not dong, where maybe I agreed to marry a Grandpa-grandfather. I still want to go to school, too. Why are you crying instead ? " i asked to look at Juan in wonder.

"I cried because I felt sorry for you. Then what will you do if they keep forcing you to marry that person ? "

" I don't know what to do either, but I'll figure out a way not to marry her."

"Have you treated that wound ? " Juan asked as he looked towards the wound that was on my face.

"It's done. Oh yes, thank you ? Because you've been listening to my curses." I smiled back.

" Yes together. You actually dare to sleep alone here ? If you are afraid, then I will accompany you." said Juan

I smiled a little at Juan's words .

"Let's be brave, I'm used to living alone" I said smiling

"Yes, then I go home first. If there's a problem just call me." replied Juan who immediately stepped out.

Juan Pov

When I saw her coming out with her eyes, I was actually a little suspicious of her.

And when I found out that she hadn't eaten, I felt so sorry for her, and at the same time was angry with her parents who I thought were so outrageous about her own child.

If only I could make my own money, I'd love to take the woman I love away from her family.

When I found out that his family was not home, I immediately bought him food.

"Hopefully he likes the food I buy" I muttered in my heart

After arriving in front of the Nonik house, I immediately knocked on the door of the house. But when the door was opened, I was so shocked to see the face and body of Nonik full of wounds. In an instant my tears wanted to drip, but I tried to hold it . Because I don't want to look good in front of him.

However, after I heard that she was forced to marry a Grandpa-grandfather in an instant my heart became very broken. The tears that I had been holding back finally dripped down my cheeks as well.
