My Beloved
chapter 7

The atmosphere was silent again, El was seen glancing at Sean many times watching his face look unfriendly. El wanted to ask that but he was too lazy and finally decided to keep quiet.

After a long, silent journey, they finally reached home. The two of them were seen walking into the house without saying a single word, seeing this situation made El so furious with Sean's demeanor that looked gloomy all the way home. Finally, because he could not stand this situation and El also felt guilty about what Jessi had done to Sean, El finally broke his ego to start a conversation with Sean

“Are you hungry? I'm so hungry now, and want to eat, do you want to make something to eat?” El asked Sean as he walked towards the kitchen, his steps were almost in the kitchen but he did not get any answers from Sean, the man just stood quietly looking at Elaine seriously, seeing that it irritated El and asked Sean again in a slightly snapping tone

“Are you deaf after skiing? Why don't you answer me and just stand there looking at me like that?” Said El tightly, but again Sean did not answer and looked more seriously at El, this made El even more upset

“Gosh sir, why are you? I know I'm very beautiful, but you don't show it that way, later I will be afraid of you” said El as he approached Sean

“You why? Speak, since you haven't even taken a word out of your mouth, have you become mute?” El asked again in a tighter tone in front of Sean, but Sean instead looked at El, making El so frustrated and finally pulled Sean to sit at the dinner table, he went to the kitchen to make food. After he finished making the food he finally returned to the dining table and served it to Sean

“This is eating, I know you are hungry, so eat and after that please speak even if only one word” said El while giving a plate containing food and a spoon to Sean

“Thank you” said Sean immediately ate his food, hearing Sean's remarks made El shocked and stared at him in surprise. Because previously Sean never said the word “Thank you” to El for life El who will be 22 years old this

“What did you say? “Thank you”? Did I not hear wrong?” Said El with a growl staring at Sean. The person who was stared at was seriously eating without looking at El at all, this of course made El so upset again

“Already, maybe I misheard earlier, maybe my ears are problematic because of daritadi with people who do not speak at all” said El while continuing to eat.

After finishing eating, El went to the kitchen to clean the utensils used by him to eat and cook earlier, while Sean was seen still sitting at the dining table and still remained silent. After finishing his business in the kitchen, El was about to go to his room but he saw Sean still sitting quietly at the dining table, seeing this made El again ask Sean curiously

“You know when you're sitting there? You don't want to sleep?” El asked with a hardened tone of speech, but Sean went back to silence

“God what a mistake I made that I had to face a man like this, he didn't even take a word out of his mouth, I'd rather if he was noisy with me than silent like this, it's so uncomfortable” El muttered inwardly with his hopeless face, he pulled Sean up to his room

“Come on, sir, let's lie down on your bed, and close your eyes, have a beautiful dream okay” El said as he laid Sean in bed

“You are why? Tell me, I can't stand to see you act like this, and I feel like a cross who just talked to himself from earlier”, said El annoyedly to Sean because he did not close his eyes even more silent

“Please talk, you're scaring me so much, are you possessed? Are you sick?” Said El again while shaking Sean's body, but still no results, Sean kept his mouth shut tightly. And El had given up finally going to his own room, but before El left, it turned out that Sean pulled El's hand strong enough to make El fall sitting on Sean's thigh, making the atmosphere so awkward between El and Sean. El tried to stand up, but Sean held him back and hugged him tightly, El rebelled wanting to break away but Sean uttered a word that surprised El

“Let it be like this for a while I beg you, I'm tired” said Sean in a soft tone as he tightened his arms to El, El just complied, because he felt this man had a little problem, but he didn't want to ask what the problem was. After hugging for a few minutes he finally let go of his embrace and they looked at each other for a moment, before El finally stood up quickly in front of Sean.

“Is it better?” Ask El

“Iya is already a little better, do you not want to ask what my problem is?” Sean looked at El

“No need, I know you definitely don't want to tell me, so I don't want to waste my time asking you, go to sleep, tomorrow I'll take you to my college first, first, then I'll take you off for a walk again.” El Saying

“Good” says Sean

“But earlier, I knew you became quiet like this because of Jessi's question. I don't understand why you don't like to be asked questions like this, but I'm sure you have a story you can't explain to us. So I wanted to apologize on behalf of Jessi, she didn't mean it that way, she didn't know about you because I didn't explain it to Jessi very much, so I beg you to be kind to Jessi tomorrow, because tomorrow she's going with us. Yasudh rest, I also want to rest first.” Said El leaving Sean's room

“Goodnight” Sean said as El closed the door to his room

After that they finally rested. Sean does have a little problem with the question that was given by Jessi earlier in the car, it's all because he used to have a lover who was so loved by Sean, who was very much loved by Sean, even Sean's parents already know this lover very well. But when Sean wanted to propose to his girlfriend one month ago, it turns out Sean actually caught his lover was having a friendly relationship with a man in their apartment, this made Sean's heart so broken and since then he really hated when there was something about “pacar” because he would remember those painful times again. His vacation this time is indeed a plan of his mother to make him forget the problem and can be better.
