The white wall seemed to be the most interesting object in Selena's eyes as her minimal body moved for the past half an hour. His legs were wrapped in blankets, two pillows behind his back became his backrest. In this sitting position, Selena was like a statue that only blinked her eyes for half a minute. His expression was haggard, his head filled with various thoughts.
The sound of an open door breaking down the pitch there. Ocean in his suit sighed at Selena's crummy-looking condition.
“Why hasn't the medicine been taken?” Ocean moved his palm to Selena's forehead, checking her body temperature. “Still dizzy?”
Selena was still unmoved; not turning her head or taking her eyes off the white wall. His face did not leave a trace of the spirit of a single item.
“Don't mind me, Ocean. Just focus on your meeting.” Finally Selena let out her voice, quietly and almost without a tone.
Ocean's hand grabbed the medicinal tablet the doctor had given him just a moment ago, as well as the glass filled with water. “I'll go to another meeting if you've taken the medicine.”
The medicine and drink proffered in front of her made Selena exhale slowly, grabbing it. All right, he'll obey. All Selena wants right now is for Ocean to get out of there.
“See you've been trying so hard not to look at me, Selena.” Ocean took over the glass, put it on the table.
Even now Selena has no energy to complain about Ocean's sensitivity, even if only in her heart. Selena was just not ready to look at Ocean's face, then the fear of the feeling began to overshadow the more concentrated. In other words, Selena was still not ready to face her own feelings.
“Just how you feel.” Selena threw away a little face.
A moment's stretch. Ocean stared fixedly at Selena. “Because of water games or Agatha coming to the beach?”
Selena spontaneously turned her head towards Ocean, raising her face.
“Ah .. because Agatha apparently. There's something you guys were talking about when I left.”
It's not a question, it's a statement. Selena just wanted to deny, say whatever origin Ocean did not manage to guess what happened, when the door to her room thumped open. The worried face of someone up ahead became the center of Ocean and Selena's attention.
“Felix. That man is your talk.” Ocean crossed, concluded, then glanced at Selena. “Alright, enjoy your time. Looks like you don't need me anymore, Selena.”
Even at the end of Ocean's sentence, Felix was moved closer after previously trying to analyze the situation in the room. He briefly passed Ocean who stepped towards the door, but did not intend to greet him.
“I heard you were sick, Selena. Well, your face is pale. Have you taken medication? Let me get you.” Felix looked riled up and worried. He rushed to take the medicine and the water on the table.
Without Felix knowing, since then Selena just stared at one point. The back that began to drift away was as if it had become the most alluring object in Selena's eyes, bringing her whispering, invincible rustling of the medicine packaging opened by Felix.
“Not Felix, Stupid. The problem is you. Always you.”
...****...
A gust of wind that was strong enough to make Selena close the cardigan that wrapped her body. The waves again play a rhythm that makes the heart feel peaceful, just like when on Pink Beach. The difference, this time the white sand on the beach, not pink.
Selena's condition has been much better after trying to persuade herself not to drown in the feelings she just realized. From the start, it wasn't physical pain that made him lose the hue on his face.
Selena turned her head as Felix stroked her shoulder slowly, channeling warmly.
Selena shook her head in response, turning her gaze to Ocean and Agatha who were walking in front of them, chatting lightly.
Such a sight sooner or later would often be Selena saw, so she had to start getting used to it. What if he was aware of his feelings for Ocean? Selena obviously did not want to be trapped in the same puddle, stupidly admitted everything, then ended miserably as before. There was nothing he could do, moreover there was still a faithful Felix beside him. Selena would be a bad person if she just dumped Felix.
“Wah, here the sunset is beautiful once .... Look at that, Selena.”
The orange sky looks so charming, decorated with gray cloud wine and sunballs that slowly swallowed the horizon line. Golden rays reflected on the blue of the sea water and the rolling waves. One or two slow sailing boats, the white sails expanded.
On a bridge that stretches in the middle of the sea like this, the spectacular view of the sunset feels much more beautiful. Selena was thrown into another world. There is only beauty and beauty.
Waecicu Beach is indeed as beautiful as people talk about. If this morning Selena dragged Ocean to see Pink Beach that must cross the ocean, on this beach they just take a short road trip, close to the hotel where they stay. The view there is no less beautiful. The towering hills combine with clear water and calm waves, really pampering the eyes.
Ocean also stopped his steps, staring at the sun that would soon be completely asleep.
“Oh, look, Ocean. Murmuration.” Agatha in a smooth motion wrapped her hands around the Ocean's arms, pointing at the hundreds of seagulls flying in formation above. Meliuk, shapeshifting .. is truly a fascinating masterpiece of nature.
Selena bit her inner cheek, holding back the upset. After calling Felix to come to Labuan Bajo without his knowledge, Agatha blatantly starts her action. He can't be hooked, he can't—
“This place is perfect for honeymooners, Felix.” Mimicking Agatha's movements, Selena also held Felix's arm. Only they can make fun. “We'll be here after getting married later, won't we?”
Felix gasped at Selena's sudden behavior, as well as her words. “Married?”
“Of course we should get married someday. You plan to divorce me, ‘kan, Ocean?”
Gun eat sir. Selena became nervous because of her own question, especially after finding Ocean's eyebrows slightly raised when looking at her. Say no, you idiot. You can't divorce me this easily.
“I think we can talk about personal issues in a better place, Selena. The beach is definitely not a suitable place to talk about it.”
What an ambiguous answer. That is to say that in a suitable place, he will not hesitate to sign the divorce papers? Selena swore without a sound. No matter what the circumstances, Ocean still sucks.
“Ah, true too. You guys have been dating for a long time, huh? Well, I'm so envious. It must be nice to find pieces of heart for each other.” Agatha displays a look as if so enthusiastic about Selena and Felix's relationship. “What do you think, Ocean? Don't Selena and Felix look like a mismatched couple?”
What Selena learned since marrying Ocean is not to expect too much. The man really could not be guessed what he wanted to do or talk about. Sometimes it can be cruel like Daendels, but other times it's like a hero who can protect everything.
Selena did not expect more of Ocean's answer. But since the man hated stupid things that were not in his favor, at most he would shrug his shoulders indifferently or nod his stupidity so that Agatha would quickly shut up.
“Entah, Agatha. But I think Selena objected to what you said.”
Selena choked on the wind, coughed a few times before finally glaring sharply at the annoying grinning Ocean. For the second time, Ocean tries to pitted Selena and Felix against each other. I don't know what the purpose is.
