Metallmorphosis
CHAPTER 27. Rain Spot Increases Shame.

Zinnia was still waiting for an answer from Ren on his confession. He looked straight at the man but could not read his expression.

“Mot.” Resolute Ren. Then he turned his body and smiled faintly. He walked slowly away from the girl.

Zinnia gaped at Ren's reply.

“What is it? I was rejected raw?!” Pekik Zinnia did not believe. “Hahahahahahaaha. Waaahhhh said I was rejected. What if it's serious?”

Zinnia laughed to cover up her embarrassment. He stepped up to catch up with Ren who was already far away. But his feet are getting painful.

“Kak! Wait!” Strangled Zinnia who tried to endure the pain.

Ren, who had just remembered that Zinnia's leg had been injured, stopped his steps and turned around. He came back to Zinnia and immediately squatted in front of Zinnia with his back.

“Pick up.” Ren's orders later.

Zinnia silently and thought a few times. The burly back was offering him comfort.

“But I'm heavy, Kak.”

“Emang.” Ren replied casually. Made Zinnia sneer at him from behind.

Zinnia is upset and accidentally ‘menubruk’ to ride to Ren's back. The man staggered forward because of Zinnia. It was fortunate that Ren immediately restrained his body with his hands that went straight to the ground.

“Pelan-pelan, dong.” Ren Protest. He slipped his hands under Zinnia's buttocks and then began to stand up. The man carried Zinnia towards their car.

“Kak.” Zinnia Briefs. “I was joking. Don't take it seriously, yes.” He tried to correct his words.

Ren did not respond. He just keeps focusing on walking while holding. He also thought that Zinnia must be teasing him. After all Zinnia already had a lover, which might seriously say so to him.

Ariga was surprised by the sight that was in front of him. He frowned because he saw Ren carrying Zinnia on his back. Something new for Ren.

“Malah. Bukain door.” Ren's orders disperse Ariga's daydream.

Ariga opens the door and Ren drops Zinnia into his car. And the car immediately drove to the highway.

Along the way, Zinnia turned his gaze out the window. He was embarrassed to look at Ren. Because of his shame, he had no materials to chat with.

“Udah almost night, want to eat first, no?” Barat Ren in the middle of the journey.

“No, Brother. Not laper. I want to take a quick break home and rest.”

“Ya already if it is.”

And the rest of the journey was silent and silent. No one spoke in the car. Only soft music is heard through the music player.

Raindrops add to the graying atmosphere. Zinnia just wants to get to her house quickly and asks Lida to massage her legs.

The car has entered a luxury residential area. And Ariga stopped the car in front of Zinnia's house.

“Kak Ren here. Don't go down. I can get off by myself.” Zinnia hurriedly said that Ren had done nothing and was just about to hold the door handle.

Ren only nodded while delivering Zinnia with his eyes tails. The girl did not even look at him before disappearing into the gate.

“Home home, Non?” Saya Pak Tio's.

“Udah, Sir.”

“That's his leg why?”

“Custom, Sir. Fallen earlier.”

“Yes, Non. How can I do it.”.

“Hehehe. Yes, sir. I'm going in first. Want to ask for a massage with Mbak Lida.”

“Iya, yes, Non. Cepet in the incandescent so no more pain.”

Zinnia walked into the house that still looked lonely. No one seems to have come home yet.

“Mbak Lida!” Call Zinnia immediately.

“Yes, Non! Why else his feet?” Lida asked with a worried look.

“Hehehe. Abis fell, just now. Ask in order, Ma'am. I'm waiting in the room.” Zinnia then walked up the stairs.

Zinnia sat her body slowly on the sofa in her room. Waiting for Lida who will fix her leg.

Not long after, Lida had already come up with a bottle of massage oil in her hand. He immediately approached Zinnia and sat down in front of the girl.

“Mama both Papa haven't come home yet, Ma'am?”

“Mommy came home. But he left again. He said he wanted the same arrangement. If you said to go to Vietnam this afternoon. If Non Navya, have not returned from earlier.” Answer Lida completely.

Zinnia could only nod his head. He wondered why Navya had not come home when her clothes must have been soaked. About his father, he does not believe that his father went to Vietnam. It was just a classic excuse that was always spoken by his father when he wanted to go home to his mistress.

“Kok can fall anyway, Non? Why again?”

“hhhhuuuffffhh.” Zinnia instead sighed in annoyance when he recalled the incident earlier this afternoon at the FD Corp office.

“Cause of Navya, this.”

“Non Navya? Why is he?”

“Tau no, Ma'am? That afternoon, Navya fought with his office. Use the jambak-jumpai event again. It just so happened that I was there. I want to get them, uh, I'm the one who was kicked until I fell. Yes finally here are my legs.” Zinnia vented his frustration.

“Non Navya fights in the office? Time anyway?” Lida doesn't believe that story.

“Yyeee. I can't believe it, anyway?”

“Soalnya Mbak never saw Non Navya quarrel, let alone to the thrash-jelp all.”

“Iya, yes, exemplary child. Who believes he's arrogant?” Zinnia.

“Hehehe. It's not so, Non. Mbak Mean..”.

“Iya, I understand.” Zinnia cut Lida's speech. He did not want to hear praise for Navya after her leg was injured because of her sister. Fortunately, his mother and father were not at home.

Zinnia rested his head on the sofa handle. Staring at her favorite painting on the ceiling while occasionally grimacing withstood the pain as Lida pressed against her leg.

“Mbak, please remot.” Zinnia asked Lida to get the remote MP player on the table.

And immediately, Zinnia played his favorite rock music with a sound that was quite loud to fill the entire room.

Initially, Zinnia just nodded his head. But over time, he began to sing along while half shouting. Follow the music and the singing.

Lida just kept quiet. It was already an everyday sight if there was a Zinnia in the house. So he was no longer surprised.

“Udah finished, Non.” Said Lida whose voice was even still defeated by the sound of music.

“Non!” Call again.

“Hah?!” Zinnia answered also by shouting.

“Udah finished the sequence!!”

“OK! Okay fine! Thanks yes, Ma'am!!”

Lida simply nodded then pointed outwards to ask for an excuse. Zinnia will.

Zinnia continued his act by singing. His mind was being reminded of Ren as well as Navya. He didn't even have time to thank Ren and Ariga for bringing him home.

Zinnia took her phone and sent a message thanking Ren.

‘Kak Ren's. I forgot to say thanks. Thanks for coming home.”

The message was not even read by Ren. Making Zinnia just sigh. Then put the phone back on the table and enjoy the music again. The music that brought him to his comfort cave because nothing disturbed him.

Navya, Zinnia is still wondering where her sister went. He wondered what Navya was doing in soaked clothes.
