Rian woke up from his sleep. His body that had felt very weak and powerless was now slowly able to get his energy back. He saw his hand tied to an infusion hose. Rian let out a look of astonishment at the puzzlement of why he had arrived - there could be an infusion hose in his hand. Has Bi Risma come home yet? Wasn't yesterday he asked permission to go home for a week and it's still the second day.
Before long he remembered the brief incident last afternoon when someone arrived - suddenly appeared pressing the bell of his house.
‘Kirana. Yes, there was Kirana here. Ah.. I just remembered.’, said Rian who just remembered the incident last afternoon.
The man then immediately woke up from his sleep and sat on the edge of the mattress to slowly restore his balance. Although his energy had returned, but his gaze was still a little shrewd.
‘Is he still here?’, Rian looks at the porridge on his desk.
Again - again he just remembered that the girl had also fed him porridge.
‘What I have done.’, Rian immediately felt sorry even opened the gate for him.
Now she had hope that Kirana was still there waiting for her when she was sick.
‘No. There's no way he's still here. He must have gone home.’, said Rian saw a clock on his nightstand that showed at 9 p.m.
He wants to continue his sleep. But, the desire and hope that Kirana might still be here made her stand up and pull her infusion pole out of the room. The man tried to look down.
From there, he could only see a small part of the living room, but could not see the other room. He couldn't possibly be sure if Kirana was still in this house or had gone home.
Rian's mind didn't want to expect more but his body said otherwise. He wants to make sure.
Slowly one step after another he tried to go down the stairs. He was tired and still did not have enough strength. But Rian kept thinking about it.
“Ghe, pliss.. If I happen to call you, plis says I'm nginep at your house, yes.”
Slowly, a female voice began to be heard from the kitchen. At that time, Rian was still in the middle of the stairs.
“Gue again at home someone I can't tell. Anyway sayin, yes. Let me call you for mastiin. Yes, I am big. Why do you even worry. I also do not nginep in the place of people I do not know, ko.”, said Kirana pleaded with her best friend, if - if later her mother even tried to make sure with Ghea.
“Ya. Look out you said something weird - weird. I'm not contekin again his duty Mr. Dadang.”, threatening Kirana. For some courses, Ghea who actually prefers to enter the social department instead must be stuck in Civil Engineering.
As a result, he found it difficult to follow several courses. Moreover, the nature must draw and sketch based on calculations. He really can't do it.
Every time Kirana gave this threat, it would always succeed.
“Oke.. see you tomorrow.”, Kirana hung up.
At that moment he saw Rian already in front of him. They exchanged conversations where almost everything was a debate.
Rian who actually expects that Kirana is still in her house instead behaves the opposite. Act as if he does not want her presence.
The man started with a painful question.
“You're still here?”
“I order you a taxi. You can go home now. For value issues, we will talk back at campus, you do not need to bother coming here.”
When Kirana insisted on staying and staying there because she wanted to keep the man who was sick, Rian insisted that Kirana immediately go home.
“Why did Rian not accept me here? Why did Rian's attitude change immediately? Wasn't it Kak Rian himself who nahan me so as not to go and remain beside Kak Rian?”, Rian continued to insist and it made Kirana feel emotion.
He had already loosened his pride because deep down, he was worried about Rian very much. But what did that man do? He threw Kirana back to her original position.
“I just didn't realize for a while because I was feeling tired. I thought...”, Rian did not continue to say - he said because Kirana finally grabbed him.
“Why? Rian's expecting someone else to be here? Brother Rian expects the woman to be here?”, so afraid of the speculation he has now over Rian's attitude, Kirana immediately threw her conjecture that is not necessarily true.
“So, you want to stay here all night when we have no ties - what else? You want to be like that? You don't mind?”, said Rian.
“I just. Wrong, huh? You think how I feel seeing you pass out in the front room? How do you think I felt when I found out you were sick and who was at home? I thought until that, you've eaten yet.. Can you take a drink anyway? You...”, Kirana stopped the word - she said.
More precisely, Kirana's words stopped because Rian directly grabbed her lips. The man pulled Kirana who was in front of him and lightly kissed the lips.
Kirana was shocked and involuntarily slapped Rian's cheek. Rian closed his eyes for a moment feeling the slap.
“You still want to be here?”, asked Rian no less cold than before.
Kirana was confused by what she was doing. Rian's actions were very arriving - arriving until - until he was not aware of what kind of response he had given. Kirana was confused and then ran towards the living room, picked up her bag, and walked out of the house.
Rian didn't prevent it at all. He was silent where he stood now.
*************
Kirana walked towards the front door of the housing. The residential area has a good security system because it has a security guard post at some point. The front is also directly integrated with the big road. It's just that it's hard to find public transport around this except taxis.
‘Why did I slap him instead?’, thought Kirana confused.
He regretted his actions but also did not justify the actions Rian took. As the man said, they already had no ties. Why did he kiss her.
But, Kirana also questioned, what did she mean by doing that.
‘Didn't he tell me to go home? Didn't he give a rebuttal when I said he might be looking forward to the woman? Then why did he kiss me? Is it because she knew I would act like that and choose to go home?’, Kirana thought so hard that she was barely aware that her phone was ringing.
Tint tint
A car arrived - suddenly approaching Kirana who was sitting in front of the stop. He was waiting for the actual bus he didn't know what number to ride to get to his house.
The driver opened the windshield. Kirana peeked a little from the direction she was sitting. There's no one else there. So, chances are the person in the car called him.
“Radit?”, Kirana said as she caught who was in the car.
