I LOVEd YOU Since 18
Eps 124s

"Look, Camilla came to ask me for help finding a place to stay because she's in Accept working at one of the companies near here, and she definitely needs a place to stay right??? So he asked me for help to find him, and already got it, he'll be living in the same apartment as me...!" Kyros explained.

"One apartment with you???" Ask Gienka to make sure.

"Yes, and all his administration was taken care of so before he came home, I took him to my apartment, to sit down and rest for a while...!"

"Yes, he's a guest so you have to treat him well..." Gienka Mumbles.

"What did you call me??? " Tanya Kyros's.

Gienka was silent and preoccupied with her own thoughts. He wanted to tell Kyros his day, but Kyros was alone with another woman. Suddenly Gienka became lazy to talk to Kyros. Gienka pretended to yawn and smiled faintly at Kyros. "I just want to talk to you, all day I work and haven't greeted you so I just want to greet you..! I'm already sleepy Ky, we're talking tomorrow again huh???"

"Ah yes, you have received work, how was your day??? You said you'd tell me about your first day at work... Let's tell you first, don't sleep..! How how??? " Tanya Kyros's.

Gienka. "Tomorrow, I'm sleepy, bye Ky...! " Gienka immediately closed the call just like that made Kyros frown and confused, but maybe Gienka was sleepy and tired after a day of work.

Gienka threw her phone back. He lay on his stomach and started crying, his heart ached knowing a woman was with Kyros. Gienka knows she is nothing to Kyros, but she loves the man and her love has never changed in the past. Gienka was upset and angry at herself why this had to happen to her, why she had to be this fate loving people and that person didn't know it, so if there was something like this, it would be, he always felt hurt as if he was betrayed, but of course that person was not entirely wrong because he did not know the true feelings of Gienka. It was just that Gienka did not have the guts at all to say that. Gienka was confused as to when she should always stick with this kind of situation, and always harbored excessive jealousy towards Kyros.

Gienka's phone rings again. Gienka lifted her face from the pillow and glanced at her ringing phone. He ignored her thinking it was a call from Kyros. Gienka hid her face from the pillow and cried again. Unfortunately, the phone did not stop ringing. Gienka gets upset and grabs her phone to disable it but then she sees not Kyros' name appearing on her phone screen, but Axel's name.

Gienka got up and sat leaning on her bed. He brushed away his tears and raised the call of his best friend.

"Hi Gie's.... Guess what I'm in now.....na??" Axel spoke, but then stopped when he realized that Gienka was crying. "You crying, huh??? Why???" Axel also looks panicked to find Gienka in such a state and not as usual.

Gienka shook her head and rubbed her face, but did not answer Axel's question.

"Gies.. Why silent??? Did something happen??? Where are you???" Ask Axel again.

"No, I'm fine, I'm just flickering...!"

"li... You're crying, your nose is flushed and your eyes are puffy, why??? Is everything okay??? Om Ariel, Aunt May, or Om Danist or maybe aunt Elea, did something happen to them??? Geffie or Friddie??? Or are you having trouble at your place of work??? What's up???"

"No Xel, nothing happened, everything's fine, you're overreacting...!"

"Then why are you crying??? Did someone hurt you??? Who's who?? And why did he hurt you???"

Gienka shook her head but suddenly her tears dripped from her pretty eyes. Gienka quickly rubbed it and tried to smile at Axel.

"And you did cry... Why Gie??? Just story???" Axel said again.

"I don't know Xel... I'm upset with myself... I hate it...!"

"Yes, I know, but why???" Axel asked again, but then he remembered something that always made Gienka behave like this. "Kyros??? Are you crying because of her???" Axel said as he guessed what was on Gienka's mind at the moment.

Gienka sobbed but once again she wiped away her tears and did not want Axel to worry too much about her. "You're home, right??? When's home???" Gienka asked, trying to distract Axel.

"Yes, I came home this afternoon, and I also went to your house to startle but Geffie said you were at Elea's aunt's house, I wanted to go there but it was late and Geffie also said that today is your first day of work, so you must be tired... Tomorrow I'll pick you up at the office, right??? I want to meet you.."

"alright... I'll wait tomorrow at the office...!" Gienka flat.

Axel smile. Tomorrow he will pick up Gienka and will ask directly what made his best friend cry. I don't know what makes Gienka cry but Axel has an instinct if Gienka cries for sure because of Kyros, the man who had been liked by Gienka. And the reason why Gienka was crying, of course Axel did not know, it could be related to Kyros.

"Well, send me the address of the office where you work, I'll pick you up, now it's night, you go to bed and don't cry anymore... You look ugly like that.."

Gienka chuckles. "Yes...!"

"OK Ky, thanks for helping me out today, I have to go back to the hotel, I have to get ready for checkout and also return to California, I'm using a flight this afternoon..." Camilla moved out of the chair.

Kyros stood up as well. "I'll take you to the hotel...!"

"No need Ky, I've booked a taxi, once again Thank you, and I hope you don't get bored if I trouble start again...!"

"Ah of course not Mil, well if you don't want me to take you to the hotel, I will take you to the front..! "

They both came out of Kyros' apartment. Camilla had to return to the hotel and get ready for the airport. He's coming home this afternoon, and in the next few days he'll be back with his stuff to move in. He was so happy to spend all day with Kyros. Chatted things with the man, and Kyros was indeed a very pleasant person. Camilla felt increasingly obsessed with Kyros, and sooner or later she had to conquer the man's heart.

"OK Ky, once again Thank you...!" Camilla said before getting into the taxi.

Camilla waved her hand and got into the taxi. Slowly the taxi left the apartment. Kyros went back in and went to his room. He intends to take care of all his belongings that are still in the box. Tomorrow he definitely won't have any more time because he has to go back to work. If it wasn't for Camilla, Kyros would have wanted to tidy up and organize his things today, one of the most books of his own.

At his apartment, Kyros lifted a box into his room, and he put it on his bed and then sat down to dismantle it. The box contained his books. One by one Kyros took it out. After all he took out, Kyros got out of bed, and brought some books in his hands for him to move to the bookshelf that was in his room.

Bruuuk.....

A book fell out of his hand. Kyros did not immediately take the fallen book but arranged the book he held first. After tidying up, Kyros picked up the book that had fallen and a piece of paper lying under the book. Kyros picked it up and smiled. "Is this the photo I was looking for??? Hahaha it was in the book huh?? Oh.hhhh...!" Kyros.

The photo is a picture of Gienka who is smiling widely and looks very beautiful. Kyros picked it up when he met Gienka a few months ago, when Gienka visited him. And Kyros edited it to combine two photos of Gienka and then printed them out. He completely forgot where to put the photo, he looked for it and did not find it but it turned out that the photo was in the book.

Kyros really liked this photo, because Gienka looks so beautiful. Her smile was sweet, and she really liked it. Gienka was very cheerful, and at that time she and Gienka spent time together and laughed together. At the moment Kyros misses Gienka very much, and it will be difficult to meet the girl again. Kyros doesn't know when he has the guts to express his feelings for Gienka, but he's no longer in college. As he promised, if he had finished his studies, he would start to prepare to express his feelings to Gienka. From now on he will prepare himself to dare to say all that has been in his custody so far to Gienka.

"I will find the right time to go home and I will have to express my feelings to Gienka directly, not if I ask her to be my lover but by phone... " Switch Kyros. "I hope you still remember my promise to Gie, that I will marry you someday, and I will fulfill everything...! " Take another word while staring at the photo of Gienka with confidence.

The next day.....

Axel enters the office parking area where Gienka works. After parking his car, Axel sends a message to Gienka if he has arrived. Gienka replied that he would be out in five minutes. Axel replied that he would wait.

Axel was happy to be back home for the holidays. He has also finished his studies well, but he cannot go home to work here, because he is currently defending one of the football teams in Thailand. Yes, Axel is a football player. Since the first time he was very fond of sports raga, even since childhood he had attended football school. And while in Thailand to study, he was still looking for a football school to fulfill his hobby. And this year, he's had an amazing achievement because he was asked to get into a football team in the country.

After graduating S2 there, Axel could not immediately return home because he had responsibility for his work in the country. And now that he's got a week off, he's using it to go home, meet his family and his friends here, too, one of them is Gienka who became his best friend since childhood and he also neighbors with Gienka. Axel actually did not go home alone but together with his lover, Celia, and his plans tomorrow Celia wants to invite him to meet her Papa who lives outside the city. Axel has never met Papa Celia, because Celia's parents are divorced, and Celia lives with her Mama.

Moments later, Axel smiled when he saw Gienka coming out of the office. He started his car and immediately approached Gienka who was standing in front of the entrance. When he reached Gienka, Axel lowered his car's door glass and called her Gienka. The girl's smile adorned her face and she quickly approached Axel's car and entered.

"Old huh??? Sorry...!" Gienka cupped her palms together and apologized to Axel.

"Not really, the office exit hour is 4, and it's 4 hours less, I came early ssupayyou didn't wait long...!"

"You are understanding..." Gienka.

"Only I've always understood you Gie... Hehe.. Oh, you want to eat??? I'll treat you..!"

Gienka shook her head. "We go to Supernova, I want to go home, oma Sari is at home and she cooks the yellow seasoning chicken because I told her if you came home and she knows that you like her..!"

"Yellow seasoning chicken?? Gee whiz.... It's so delicious especially Oma Sari who made it, okay-okay us to the supernova cluster, geez I've missed that dish so much, even I intend to take you to go to Bandung and meet Oma Sari, but it's nice that she's here...!"

"Thank God for that hahaha...!" Gienka laughing.

"If you laugh like that, you'll look more beautiful, Gie, than you did last night.. You're crying, so ugly..! What's the matter, actually?? Tell me about it... At least it might make you better...!"

Gienka smile. But it didn't answer Axel's question.

"Come Gie... Since yesterday you didn't answer my question, don't you think I'm your best friend anymore???"

Gienka pinched with Axel not laughing. "About... Till whenever I'm your best friend Xel..."

"If so, then why don't you tell me??? "

"You guessed it last night then why did you ask me again...! "

Axel turned to Gienka, his forehead wrinkled. "Guessing??? Guess what???" Axel looked confused and he was silent for a moment to remember what he said to Gienka last night about the guess. "Kyros??? You're crying because of her???" Axel asked again and Gienka nodded her head.

"Why else is Gie??? Nothing else what?? Do you cry a lot because of her??? What the hell is he doing??? She said bad to you???"

Gienka shook her head and told Axel that yesterday she contacted Kyros and found a woman who came to Kyros' apartment. Seeing that, suddenly, Gienka's heart ached and inexplicably cried. It hurt so much to see that, because Gienka loved Kyros so deeply.

Hearing Gienka's story, Axel laughed out loud laughing at Gienka who was next to him. The look on Gienka's face turned upset, she told him a story and Axel laughed at him instead. "You are so evil...! Laughing too..!" Gienka Protests.

"I'm laughing because you're so funny... You always act like that when you see her with other women??? Don't you think who you are for him??? You're just his best friend, and you loved him all this time but he didn't know it, it wasn't his fault if he approached or was close to another woman??? What's wrong is you, you're always waiting for him to wish he loved you too, but there's no guarantee he's keeping the same feelings for you, and you're hoping he keeps his promise when you're kids, too, hello Gie, that's a ridiculous promise a 4-year-old would make, but why do you believe so strongly that he will keep it???" Axel.

Axel activates his car's auto-pilot mode and faces Gienka next to him. Axel smiled at Gienka and held Gienka's shoulder. "I think everyone also experienced that time when he was a child, saying he would marry his friend but the fact that when they grow up it doesn't happen, because it's just a word that doesn't have any meaning Gie... You should have realized that, but there's no harm in you loving her but the problem is you always refuse to express your feelings on the grounds that you women can't possibly say it first, whereas love must be expressed without the need for prestige about you women or men, all that love must be expressed except by people who love themselves too much...!"
