I'm Not a High School Boy
CHAPTER 19: Getting Stuck in an Unwanted Marriage

Gisel had just taken a warm bath, his favorite when he was tired. A day at the amusement park left him completely exhausted.

At least, the incident with those thugs did not make the mood today gloomy. Evidently, Tika and Adrian continue to laugh and scream while trying the rides.

Different again with Adit who just sat watching them play. But, he still enjoyed it despite just watching it.

Gisels? He felt he was too old to play such children's games. So what he does all day is .. the same as Adit, sitting on the outskirts while enjoying his food.

"Luckily the food here is delicious" said Gisel.

Rey herself did not follow them after her encounter with the thugs. He said there was something he had to do.

Gisel was just curious about what Rey was doing there. But he was reluctant to ask, especially since Rey cornered him with her martial skills. He was worried Rey would ask him another question that would further corner him.

"Help ..." Gisel took a long breath.

"How much do I not know about you, Rey?" he said.

While drying his hair with a towel, Gisel opened his phone.

"Om Satrio?"

Soon Gisel returned the missed call.

"Ah, just now Om wants to call you," Satrio said as Gisel's call connected.

"Sorry, Om. Is there a problem?"

"I'm the one who wants to ask. Did something happen between you and Reynard?" asked Satrio.

"Rey? Rey why?"

"He went to the office. He asked a lot about Kanaya. Looks like he saw you when Om picked you up at school. He asked, do you know Kanaya? How do you know Kanaya? Who is Kanaya?" explained Satrio at length.

Apparently, Rey was curious about something because of the incident earlier. Butwhat? Gisel begins to worry about whether he made a mistake, leading to Rey's suspicion.

"Om also doesn't understand what's wrong with that. But if you don't want Reynard to know about this, you better be careful. Because it seems like Reynard suspects something from you," Satrio said after Gisel explained a little about the incident earlier this afternoon.

But Gisel agrees with him. If it has to happen one day, it means Gisel has to be ready to tell Rey.

"And one more ...," said Satrio again.

But, before Satrio could finish, Gisel heard a scream from outside his room.

"Kanaya!!!"

"Om, I'll call you back later."

And the call was immediately interrupted.

Gisel immediately ran out of the room and found Clara who was preparing to open the door of her room.

"What's wrong?" asked Gisel. His voice was almost raised from the annoyance of hearing Clara's screams.

As soon as she saw Gisel, Clara immediately pulled Gisel's hand into her room.

"Let's change clothes! Beautiful Dandan," orders Clara. He was immediately busy opening Kanaya's wardrobe, then took out all the clothes inside. Clara was busy picking clothes for Gisel.

Gisel himself just stood looking at Clara in astonishment. He thought the witch was possessed. He had no idea what Clara wanted.

"Here you go!" cried Clara as she threw a pink short dress right about Gisel.

"Quick change clothes! In a moment the man came!," Clara snapped before she exited Kanaya's room.

Gisel was now looking at his messy room. Then, threw a look of his anger at the door that had just been violently closed by Clara. He wanted to pull the woman's hair.

"What the hell do you want him to be?" shouted Gisel furiously.

Then she looked at the short dress that Clara had just thrown at her.

"Who do you want me to flirt with?" he asked.

The short dress was just an ordinary dress. Nothing special. The model is perfect for Kanaya's body shape as well as her calm character. It was her pink color that made Gisel think Clara wanted herself to look sweet in front of someone for her to attract. But who?

The answer came exactly 30 minutes later. Gisel who was already dressed up, was picked up by Clara to her room.

"Look, yeah! Don't be ashamed! Be nice. Don't try to cause trouble, or I'll hit you" whispered Clara threatening Gisel. His hand clasped Gisel's arm hard enough to lead him down.

As soon as he arrived below, Gisel saw a man who was quite old. He estimates he's 70 years old. His clothes were very neat by holding a wooden stick that looked quite expensive.

"Well, this is Kanaya, sir. Pretty, right?" said Clara. He spoke softly, more gently than when he spoke to Gisel earlier.

"Hjw ... Well-favoured. Very pretty," cried the old man. His eyes continued to look at Gisel like a starving tiger.

"Sit over there!" whispered Clara.

"What?!"

Gisel shouted in disbelief. But then, Clara pinched her arm.

Clara pulled her hand to stop the pain. He turned to look at Gisel. But then, he smiled at the old man.

Clara, not to be outdone, grabbed Gisel by the arm and dragged him to sit next to the laughing man who teased Gisel.

"Sit down!" whispered Clara in Gisel's ear and pushed her shoulders down to sit.

The old man did not stop laughing especially when Gisel was already beside him. The man's hand now held Gisel's chin and looked at him more closely.

Gisel already wanted to throw the man's hand, but then Clara whispered back in his ear.

"If you don't want to obey, just look, I'll destroy all your mama's belongings in the warehouse" whispered Clara.

Gisel was silent at last. He gave up, although both of his eyes still implied anger.

He hates being threatened. But, he had no other choice. Although he felt that he had no ties whatsoever to the items Clara meant, but they were important things to Kanaya. As long as he was still Kanaya, Gisel still had the responsibility to take care of him.

"really pretty. Hoho ...," said the old man. "He's still ...."

"Of course, Sir. He's still a woman, a favorite of Mister. I assure you," replied Clara who seemed to know what the man wanted.

"What'sthis? What is that name?" wrote Gisel in his heart.

"Good, good!," cried the old man happily. His hand now landed on one of Gisel's thighs, then stroked it.

Gisel snickered furiously at the old man.

"Don't worry, honey. I'll marry you right away. No engagement needed" the man said.

"What?! Who wants to marry you, old man?!," cried Gisel who could no longer hold back his anger.

Clara immediately pulled Gisel to look at her. He glared at Gisel. "What are you doing?!" said Clara with her half-closed lips. He looked just as angry as Gisel.

"It's okay. Its alright. He may be too happy" said the old man.

With his back resting on the stick he was holding, the old man slowly stood up.

"Come tomorrow to my office. We're gonna sign that contract. Take him too. I want to have lunch with him."

The old man finally left after he said those words. Clara caught up with him from behind after she glared at Gisel.

Gisel did not want to linger standing there. He was already very angry with Clara who had arbitrarily taken such an important decision on Kanaya's life without her consent. With old bangka anyway!

"He's really crazy!," Gisel said in his heart.

As Gisel was about to go upstairs, a hand pulled her hair hard.

"I'll forgive you this time, because he still agrees to do business with me. But ... there won't be another time" Clara said.

Quickly, Gisel grabbed Clara's hand and bent it behind her. Clara screamed in pain.

"If you want, marry yourself. Don't take me!," snapped Gisel.

Clara pulled her hand to release herself from Gisel's grip. The two of them were staring at each other in anger.

"You may be amnesia. But I remind you again, you have agreed to obey all my orders. Or I'll fire Bik Idah and the others. I can also destroy all of Emma's stuff without leaving. So, don't ever argue with me!," snapped Clara.

Gisel became increasingly furious. This crazy woman dared to threaten Gisella Mathilda Hadiwijaya. And Gisel became even more wrathful, for he had no choice but to obey.

"It's good that you understand" said Clara after she saw Gisel's changed countenance.

"I've been succumbing to your amnesia for a long time, because the doctor said it was dangerous for you. Plus Dahlia's coming to this house. You may feel your life is safe in this house. Oh naw. Seeing that you can hurt Rafael like that, I assume you are already quite healthy. And I just have to wait for Dahlia to get out of this house" Clara snapped again.

"Tomorrow prepare! You will come with me, without refuting!"

Finished saying so, Clara left behind Gisel who was still standing under the stairs.

"So, Kanaya, this whole time was how you were made to submit? You are forced to protect others so as not to protect yourself. Good, Clara!"

......................

In the morning, Gisel woke up with an uncomfortable feeling on his chest. The longer he felt it, the more pain he felt in his chest. The stabbing pain made Gisel have trouble breathing.

Gisel fell on the floor of his room while holding his chest to endure the pain. At that moment, Clara walked into her room.

"What are you doing?" he said, looking despicablely at the fallen figure of Kanaya before him.

Clara lifted one of her legs to shake Kanaya's body.

"Not pretending to be sick. Get changed! Put on this shirt!," Clara snapped while throwing new clothes on Kanaya's bed.

But, Gisel still felt pain. He still holds his chest. As the pain grew louder, Gisel could no longer endure it. He finally fainted.

Clara still can't believe Gisel fainted. He shook once more, this time violently. Still no response.

After she checked it once more, Clara instantly became panicked. Immediately he called the driver to take them to the hospital.
