Jakarta - Tokyo Love Story
59. Edo's Secret

"Do? Are you okay?" Seira looked at Edo with those beautiful alluring eyes.

"Y-yes. I'm not papa." Edo tried to denial with his condition that was not okay.

What was clear all day between the changing hours of classes was only Erina who tried to invite him to talk and persuade him to apologize to everyone.

Edo still retains his sky-high ego and prestige. Beni's cynical gaze made her even more unwilling to throw away her sense of prestige. Moreover, Aldo also continued to follow him looking at him with a gaze as if hostile.

Instead of solving problems and misunderstandings with his friends, he ran away. He told the landlady at the hostel that he would stay again tonight.

Not facing problems but running away. That's Edo. He doesn't realize how cowardly he is now.

Seira is very welcome because she likes it. The girl accepted him happily staying at his place again.

Edo was stupid and thought this blurry act was most correct. I don't know what got into him until Erina's talk he fought back and forth until Erina was upset with him.

"God, Er. Why tell me to apologize. I wasn't wrong. They are also accusing me of a no-no accusation. Just let them be satisfied. I'm not going home tonight. I told Yuki San that I'd stay at a friend's house."

"Do! What are you, anyway? Yes I understand Seira can help you anything if you have a problem here. But you must remember you are going and fighting with us. I'm not that stupid, Do. I also heard from the kids about what Seira was like.

Be careful hanging out, Do. Don't take the wrong step. You're far from family or anyone else here. Your family is us. The sponsor raises your hand if you have a problem.

Now whatever. I'm just trying my best to be the leader of this force team by reconciling you. But if you refuse to be helped, you already are. Now it's up to you to say I don't care."

And Erina's words were rattling again now that Edo was lying about his friends in front of Seira.

"Seira is good. At least he's not just judging like you guys." And that's what Edo said before leaving, accompanied by the gaze of his other friends.

Edo was just too young and naive. He was also stressed because he realized that studying here was difficult but he was trapped. Tokyo is Kalula's dream. Not dreams. He alone is too self-imposed and feels capable.

"Do, I think you're talking to Kalula again. I think he's bothering you again." Seira with her glittering nail polish sat beside the half-dreaming Edo.

Edo is a bit of a distance but this sofa is very narrow. Seira understood Edo and rolled her eyes.

"Why the hell, Do? Kok away. You know how close and how far we were last night." Seira drew closer and his hand began to dare to touch Edo in the inappropriate part.

"Seira. No, Sei. No!" And Edo who was tempted yesterday without being able to resist now managed to build a fortress.

"Why?" Seira looked at him in disappointment as soon as Edo slightly rejected his hand.

Edo shook his head in cold sweat. He knew yesterday that his fortress had collapsed. But he doesn't want to repeat. His head shook again strongly.

"No, Sei. We don't have to be gini, do we? I'm here because I feel comfortable with you. Because you feel like you're the only one who understands my condition. Don't go too far like yesterday. I know you are beautiful and no one dares to refuse you. I refuse to take care of you. Please, you know, right?"

Edo's voice sounded a little. They were alone in this quiet room.

"Seira. You're not angry, are you?" Somewhat frantically, Edo also faced the change in Seira's facial expression.

Seira shakes. Oh, this is what it feels like to be rejected. That's what's in his head. But Edo's sincere statement just now somewhat flattered him as well.

"So what are we, Do?" Suddenly, the question was asked again.

Edo looked at Seira with a guilty feeling. He knows now the effect is like he used Seira. Seira puts her heart on, but Edo just wants an escape from heartbreak and loneliness.

"I don't know." Edo answered briefly.

"You said it was comfortable with me. I'm comfortable with you too. But you don't love me?" Seira's voice sounded ordinary but her tone seemed to demand something.

Edo was confused as to what to answer? It feels too early to call this 'honey.' Ah, Kalula alone took years to make it dear. Edo only knew Seira for a month.

"Y-yes. But honey doesn't have to be expressed in a 'like that' way, does it?" Edo pressed a bit sharply when calling the word 'like that.'

What a free association beyond reason is so incompatible with the principle of Edo's life. But his name is also unstable, yesterday he slipped. And Edo knew for this he should not slip again with all the temptations of Seira's beauty that blinded his mind.

"Yes. Sorry. You're the only one who told me that. Previously, someone refused. They just want 'it.'

Do, I know you just broke up. It's too soon for you to be that dear as I am. Don't stay away, Do. I want you to try to open up and your feelings for me.

Your studies are here 4 years, right? Next year if my script is good I graduate. We still have a lot of time. I can say papa let me not go back to Jakarta first. Let's stay with you, until you graduate."

Edo even had a hard time swallowing his own saliva once he heard Seira's words. Why did she expect this much from him? Edo felt overwhelmed.

"Seira, i... I'm..."

"I what?"

"I don't even know if this semester can pass? Tokyo is too heavy for me. To be honest I was also afraid that my friends would report me to the sponsor." Edo's voice was a bit trembling as he said it.

Oh, finally in front of Seira he revealed everything. About his friends who misunderstood. About Beni and Aldo who know the cheating. And Seira could only listen to Edo's confession with a gaping mouth.

"There is an agreement between the scholarship recipient and the sponsor. I might be sent home if Beni told Erina, and Erina told the sponsor. Cheating is a grave offense." Edo said weakly.

Seira closed her mouth tightly. Oh, the story of Edo until here turned out to be quite winding. It deserves stress.

Edo looked at Seira with a glum look. Seira replied by touching her cheek...
