Imperfection
Chapter 12

Three days have passed, and the relationship between me and Mr. Deo seems to be fine. I mean, it's like we're really lovers. Moreover, Mr. Deo's attitude was really warm and attentive to me. He'll even take me to see his mother the day after tomorrow. And I don't know why I got so nervous about it. It was really a surprise. I even started smiling a lot and rarely thought about what had happened between Ryan and Tina.

Given that point again, the two of them still hadn't said anything to me. Even more so with the strange attitude shown by Ryan three days ago. It still feels strange and can really make me feel very curious. Even so, I no longer see Ryan and Tina together. The two of them even seemed to avoid each other, although I had absolutely no idea what the reason behind it was.

But, even so there are still many questions in my mind right now. The first is because Ryan and Tina, the two of them who seem to avoid each other, even the two of them also become very rarely talk to me. And somehow I feel that I'm fine with it now. I also feel very relaxed about it. Then the second, it was caused by Mr. Deo. What's more, our status of dating falsely. Sure oes. Then suddenly Mr. Deo did not even feel shy or embarrassed to treat me as his true lover to his fellow lecturers. Although I am happy about it, but of course there is an uncomfortable feeling.

Moreover, all the lecturers in this faculty look happy with our relationship. And also the other thing is when Mr. Deo who suddenly just invited me to be able to go meet his mother. Then what if all this truth is revealed. What if everyone knew that our relationship was originally just to make me feel worthy? What if everyone knew we were in a fake relationship? What about Mr Deo's mother? What will he think of me?

Gosh darn. There are so many questions that it would even be very difficult for me to be able to answer. Even I would not dare to express all the things that are in my mind at the moment to Kak Rendi, otherwise, she would definitely feel disappointed towards me as well. And I don't want that to happen at all. And now, I'm having lunch in the campus cafeteria. Not alone, of course. I was together with Mr. Deo who was even smiling while continuing to eat his food in front of him now. I tried to get her smile back with a small smile. I knew that I was blooming right now, though I had as much as I could to hide it so well right now.

“Do you like the food? I thought I could order you some other food. Because you look very silent.” muttered Mr. Deo there who immediately made me realize.

“No.. I mean, of course I like the food. And I was silent because I was doing a lot of work. So I thought about my job, that's all. Don't feel concerned.” I replied soberly and returned smiling.

I looked straight at Mr. Deo, he looked very handsome. Sure oes. Besides, she looks so sweet. I mean, if only I really liked and fell in love with him, maybe this would all be so easy to do. Even so, somehow I don't even regret the decision that I and Mr. Deo made at all, to be able to establish a relationship as a couple like now.

“Oya, Lili.” Call Mr. Deo there after drinking a little iced tea there right now.

“Iya?” I muttered and asked.

And at that moment I could see the eyes of Mr. Deo who looked very sparkling. He looks happy and also cheerful. I no longer even care about the many people in the cafeteria right now, who might be staring straight at me and Mr. Deo. “I want you to remember, if the day after tomorrow, I will invite you to meet my mother. I also told my mother that I would introduce you to her. You didn't forget that, did you?” ask Mr. Deo to make sure it comes back.

“Of course, I won't forget. I will also say this later to Kak Rendi.” Answer me with pleasure.

I felt like I was in an atmosphere of euphoria right now. I feel like I really am Mr. Deo's lover, and I feel happy about it. And it seems, I just need to make sure of a few things after this, which is how the continuation of the pretend relationship that is happening between the two of us right now.
