I'm Still in High School
Chapter 80 Receives all
Pant House
Aldo sat with Gwen in the living room. Barra was heartened enough to give his wife time to talk to her best friend. Barra sat by the pool outside the Pant House with Asep and Raffi. He looked silent, not speaking.
“Gwen... explain to me what exactly happened..! And why are you hiding it.” Aldo, who had not yet lost Gwen, seemed to be chasing after the girl with questions.
The girl was still silent, feeling confused as to how she was going to tell a story. If he had confessed to Aldo at this time, if there had not been an actual husband and wife relationship between him and Barra, the young man would not have stopped to pursue him. Though in heart, Gwen also felt that she did not set her heart to belong to Aldo.
„Tell me Gwen. If indeed you are forced to marry Brother Barra, I will take you away from that man Gwen.. Speak honestly to me.!” expectantly, Aldo continued to ask for an explanation.,
A few moments later…
“Aldo..., my marriage to Brother Barra was indeed happening Ald. It all happened so quickly, but Brother Barra was no stranger to me Aldo.. We've known each other for a long time since I was a kid. The affection between us grew according to the Javanese saying, witing tresno jalaran seko kulino. Maybe that's why, why I want to accept this matchmaking.” Gwen finally covered the truth. Because if he answers, if he does not like Barra, then Gwen is sure if Aldo will take her away right now.
„You lied Gwen Aldo said he did not believe.
But Gwen smiled instead, even though it looked like a hidden cry in the girl's heart.
“All this is Aldo's reality and truth.. Remember when I called you at night, and you took me to your papa's villa. In that place, you asked me to shout together, to throw out the anger in my heart at that time." Gwen tried to remind me.
"It's no use, isn't it, if I'm lying to you.. Barra and I are a married couple, and I have started to love and accept it. We will remain Aldo's friends with Asep, Raffi, Alana, Novi, Robert and our friends at The Intercultural School. It's just that I haven't had the courage to announce everything.” In a soft voice, Gwen continued
the explanation.
Aldo was still silent and seemed to think this was a dream. Aldo looked extremely shocked at those words. The young man continued to look at Gwen, and as if he wanted to distrust the reality that was happening right now. But looking at the girl sitting in front of him, despite being very difficult, Gwen kept trying to be casual, to show that she was okay,
„It's hard... It's so hard for me to forget you Gwen.. You know, no, how I feel about you. I love you, Gwen, even though you never answer my feelings. But from your attitude towards me, I also feel Gwen. if you also love me.” with pede, Aldo continues to try to seduce the girl.
„Don't talk like that again Aldo. All this time, as long as we are together, I purely consider us to be like a friend, a good friend, and also a family to me. You know, no, what my background is, growing up with no papa, no mama, and only more often with housemaids. We're not gonna break up from all that Aldo, I assure you, I'm sure. Brother Barra will definitely also give me permission.” with a choked tone, Gwen tried to convince Aldo.
„But all this surprised me Gwen. Moreover, you do everything secretly, not one bit to ask my opinion or consideration. I hurt Gwen..” saw tears streaming from the corner of Aldo's eye, there was pain and tenderness in the corner of Gwen's heart. But the girl also could not do anything,
The young man fell silent again, not responding to Gwen's words. The look in his eyes had only since looked into Gwen's teary eyes as well, and they spoke in silence. It lasted for a while, until finally..
„Gwen. But I also don't want to be a loser, because everything has happened. I also saw that Brother Barra was a good man, who definitely would not make you short. Remember to always tell me, if you find any shortcomings of the man's attitude, especially if until Barra hurts you.” To make sure that the girl he loved was always happy, Aldo was overprotective of the girl.
***********
Disappointed, finally that day Aldo, Asep and Raffi returned to Indonesia. Although the information Gwen gave him was very hurtful, Aldo tried to stay strong. The young man refused, as Gwen offered to drive to the airport, arguing that it would add to her heartache.
„We will return to Indonesia Gwen.. Remember to always take care of yourself wherever you are, Always inform your situation, and if until this man hurts you, he said, I will come and take you away with me,” with words full of intimidation, Aldo said goodbye to Gwen. Aldo's cynical gaze glanced at the barra standing beside his wife, But the grown man did not pierce the words of Aldo.
„Go Aldo.. Asep, Raffy.. I will be fine, no need to worry about me, Brother Barra will always take care and pay attention to me. Is that so brother..?” not to make the three young men reluctant to leave her, Gwen was friendly to her husband,
„Of course honey... True what my wife Aldo said, there will be no lack of anything for my wife. I will always look after and meet the needs of my wife.Go the three of you and be careful.” Barra, who had been silent for a while, finally spoke. The adult man moved closer to his wife. In front of the three young people, Aldo did not hesitate to show affection to Gwen.
Aldo then turned around, and set foot to the car that was waiting for them in the hotel lobby. Asep and Raffi followed the young boy's footsteps, after smiling and nodding their heads at Gwen and Barra. The couple waved until the car left the lobby.
“We went back into the honey.” a few moments silent in the lobby, Barra finally took his wife inside.
The young girl did not reply, just staring at her husband. But without speaking, Gwen finally followed the invitation. Barra was still embracing his wife's shoulder, and the two immediately walked towards the direction of the special elevator.
“Today we want to go where honey.?” while waiting for the elevator to go up, Barra asked his wife.
“Sorry, Gwen is not in the mood today. The return of the three friends of Gwen to Indonesia, honestly, makes Gwen feel lost.” Uninspired, Gwen answered her husband's question.
Barra fell silent, and tried to understand what his wife was currently feeling. The man simply took a breath, and they remained silent until the elevator door in front of them opened.
