My Gentle Boyfriend's
22 When Love Makes You Look Stupid

The gentle whirring of the wind blowing through a fragile body made the body slightly unsteady staggered. As if the gentle wind did not feel enough, it again blew and hit the face of the beautiful girl making her hair splatter.

Dengan helaan nafas, gadis itu merapikan dirinya dan kembali berjalan dengan mantap. Mata indahnya menatap kearah sebuah sekolah megah dihadapannya dengan sedikit kegelisahan yang ketara.

Trying to calm himself down, he took a deep breath before stepping his legs back to advance.

Walking forward with a flat face and a slightly empty gaze, the girl ignored the surrounding towards her class of being.

"Good morning Arlana..."

A friendly greeting was heard when Arlana's footsteps had reached the entrance of the classroom.

The girl was surprised by the greeting that never happened. Looking towards the origin of the sound, the surprise became even greater.

Arlana saw a girl with a full body and smiling bakpao cheeks staring at her.

With a light nod after a long silence Arlana replied "Good morning Kanaya..."

"Oh?! You remember my name!!"

Hearing Kanya who seemed happier due to her reply Arlana only smiled faintly before walking past her.

Of course Arlana knows and remembers Kanaya, the girl has been in the same class for the past 3 years. And moreover the large figure of Kanya who is very spoiled and likes to eat a variety of foods is very striking in the classroom.

"Are you feeling unwell?" A girl asked towards Kanaya who was still smiling

"What do you mean?"

Staring at the clueless Kanaya, the girl again spoke "That's because you were so brave today and was intentional about greeting Arlana!"

"Celsi," Kanaya let out a long sigh and replied Celsi with an innocent face "I thought he was so scary all along, but after the last few meetings I thought he wasn't that scary. So I guess it's okay to try to get to know each other."

Celsi just stared silently at Kanaya and then at Arlana who looked like she always did. With no care he waved softly "Clearly, it has nothing to do with me!"

Arlana sat still in her place motionless. The girl's mind seemed empty and glared somewhere.

He thought back to what happened yesterday, but after recalling that he only felt annoyed and angry. In the end he just stared absentmindedly ahead and thought nothing of it.

Zale's figure appeared at the door, he looked the same as usual but his handsome face was slightly glowing. One could guess with certainty that something had happened to him.

As Zale's black eyes stared at the silent Arlana sitting in her place with a blank mind. She smiled sweetly and approached slowly.

When Zale woke up from the heavy hangover he felt he was home, more precisely at Glen's place.

With faint memories and pain in his head Zale tried to recall everything. He flinched from his stupidity and looked at Glen who was standing silently observing him.

"Am I dreaming?" That was the first sentence he really wanted to know

Glen did not respond too quickly, flatly asking "What kind of dream?"

"Stop making me nervous, say! Did Arlana come to me it was a dream or reality?!"

Glen smilingly stared at Zale, his face looking mocking but also joking. With her thumb raised towards Zale she said "Good job buddy, it's not dream👍"

It was as if a bucket of hot water had just been splashed towards Zale's body. The man looked stiff and flushed at the same time.

His heart was warm because an outburst of love, even his body heated up and felt lighter.

He vividly recalled when Arlana said her sentence "I will give you my heart, take good care of it and stay by my side forever!"

With great joy Zale jumped out of bed all of a sudden. This action made Glen shake his head slowly overwhelmed.

But even so Glen did not say anything and just observed it in silence. It was possible that Glen would one day be the same so it would not be good to make fun of himself in the future.

Impatiently Zale actually wanted to meet Arlana after she woke up, but she unbundled her intentions and waited.

Actually he was afraid that if he came too long Arlana might retract his words because he was drunk. After much consideration Zale finally held himself back and waited.

This is where the deadline for his patience runs out, he sees the girl he likes sitting there. She wanted to hug him and do a lot of things but this was still in school, she also once told Arlana that if Arlana gave her heart, Zale would refrain from harassing her in school.

With a strong urge to restrain herself, Zale smiled sweetly and greeted the pensive Arlana "Good morning.."

Arlana flinched in shock, she turned her gaze and looked right at the direction Zale was in before turning her on that very second because of the red hue on her cheeks.

"Are you okay?" Zale asked worriedly after seeing Arlana's face that looked slightly red, her hands reaching down Arlana's cheeks and again asked "Are you feverish? Not feeling well? Wanna go home?"

Arlana : "..."

Of course Zale knew that the girl was fine and just felt embarrassed, but Zale couldn't help wanting to tease her. Especially if the girl says she is sick and wants to go home, she can accompany her and they will only be both when it happens.

"I'm fine!" Arlana answered quickly and grabbed both of Zale's big hands to get away from his increasingly red cheeks

Zale's face smiled comically, he wanted to say something else but a teacher came and started the lesson.

Dutifully Zale fell silent and listened to the teacher in front.

Different things happen on Arlana's side! The girl looked agitated and unfocused, she would occasionally glance towards the direction Zale was at.

The girl's mind wandered with various questions.

Did Zale forget about what happened yesterday because he was drunk?

Does Zale remember anything?

Why does this guy look the same as usual?

But why was it now as if the man seemed to be slightly keeping his distance?

Did Zale feel like he got it and got bored?

Is... Is....

All sorts of questions were completely blown in Arlana's mind, the girl even got a reprimand from the teacher for it.

With Bell ringing signifying the time of day break, Arlana wanted to ask a few things but Zale stood up and said something first.

"Oh, I have something to discuss with teacher Dan, Lana don't forget lunch. I'll be right back!"

With that sentence his figure rushed away.

Arlana was dumbstruck, she looked at the man with an annoyed feeling in her heart. Sensing a soaring anger, he went to leave unconcerned.

"Are they not like that all the time?!"

"It's a little different!!!" Kanaya shook her head but did not continue and only returned to what she was doing.

....At the place where Zale was, the man did not really go to meet teacher Dan but was in the middle with Glen. He continued to smile foolishly with a hint of anxiety in his head.

"What are you doing?" Glen asked with raised eyebrows

Please be aware that Zale had never met him at school if it was not important since he became Arlana's duckling. But now he was in front of her with food and kept smiling foolishly.

"I saw Arlana's sweet demeanor and couldn't help but slightly prank her!"

"Don't overdo it, that girl might come back to not care about you!" Glen reminded, yet he got a furious glare from Zale

"He wouldn't have done that, even if he did. Thenwhat? I'll stay by his side and make him Fall in Love again!"

"The troublesome man!" No longer caring, Glen focused on the food before him.

After some time passed, Bell went back to sounding, Zale bought some Vitamin drinks and milk for Arlana before returning.

After he arrived at class, his handsome face looked uneasy looking at where the girl was but did not find her figure. With a dark face he began to rethink whether he was acting excessively? Where's Arlana? He's never skipped before! What the hell's going on?

A girl asked kindly to Zale who was silent on the doorstep "Are you looking for Arlana?"

Staring at the extremely plump face of the girl in front of him, Zale only nodded lightly.

The girl smiled faintly and again said "Arlana said she's not feeling well and will be resting in the infirmary!"

"Thank you!" Zale nodded towards him and passed away as quickly as possible, he was unable to not worry.

Is Arlana blushing really because of pain and not because of shame? No longer thinking strangely he just kept running speeding up his footsteps.

For Arlana herself, she was now lying in a quiet bed alone. She was fine and just closed her eyes from being tired.

The reason he's here is because he wants to hide from Zale! He was too upset to see that stupid looking face of his.

As Arlana was in silence and her own world, the voice of the man who made her angry rasped in her ears.

"Lana, are you feeling sick? Is it uncomfortable? Should we go to the hospital?" With a worried voice Zale approached and touched the figure of Arlana lying with her eyes closed.

Not getting a response from the girl he went back to saying "Are you sleeping?"

Being quiet...

Arlana just silently did not reply, she actually wanted to answer and was angry at the man. But he held it in and allowed this foolish man to feel worried more.

Unlike what Arlana had expected, Zale without speaking much anymore and instead kissed her lips. Soft and fast kiss.

"..." - ".Arlana was still motionless, she closed her eyes tightly with a beating heart. His face was already as red as a boiled crab.

"It turns out you're okay" Zale chuckled softly realizing the girl below him was holding back the shame of "I'm sorry to pretend I don't remember! I'm just teasing you a little. So don't be mad okay?"

Arlana's eyes opened instantly as the sentence came out of Zale's lips. The girl got up and sat down and pinched Zale's white cheek angrily.

"Is it fun to play me?!"

Zale grimaced with pain, he touched Arlana's finger that was still pinching her cheek and said "It was fun but it also tormented me! I even had to refrain from touching you!"

With another blouse the red color on Arlana's cheeks grew thick. He took off his fingers and turned his eyes away from looking at the man before him.

"I love it when you're embarrassed like this is so sweet!" Zale's hand moved to pull Arlana's chin up and look her beautiful eyes "I like you and I promise to always be by your side! I really love you, so you have to take responsibility to love me again. Okay?"

Arlana smiling sweetly looked at the handsome face before her full of warmth, she nodded firmly and replied "I'll-"

Zale was no longer able to hold on, receiving the sweet treatment from Arlana already made him feel a hot sensation, and when he saw the girl smiling sweetly at him for the first time. Carelessly he snatched his lips for a Kiss.

The kiss starts gently, sticks and starts pressing until it sucks. Unsatisfied, Zale pressed down on Arlana and began to explore every wall of his teeth with his tongue.

Arlana who was the result of Zale's kiss was different than usual, with a breath that sucked she only returned a few and let the man do his wish.

Arlana's body stiffened as a large hand began to line up inside her shirt, she flinched and pushed the hand away from the soft object on her chest.

"...." - ".Arlana

Zale realized from his actions that were already out of control, he reluctantly pulled his lips from Arlana. He also reluctantly pulled his fingers from the soft object he felt.

"Sorry I'm outrageous" Zale opened his hoarse-sounding voice, he didn't dare to stare at Arlana who looked messy or else he would return to do something else.

Arlana took a deep breath trying to inhale as much air as possible with tightness. He tidied up his messy uniform. After half a tidy hand the girl pulled Zale's ear in annoyance and said quietly "Don't go too far, we're at school!"

As if receiving a good revelation, Zale's face shone brightly and caught Arlana's hand "So if it wasn't in school it would be fine!"

Arlana's hand slipped from Zale's ear, she wanted to pull back her hand but it was caught by Zale.

Stupidly and unwilling to answer Zale's question, Arlana switched the conversation to "Are you truant?"

Zale smiled gently and no longer asked the hot topic he wanted. Arlana had just accepted herself so it was not good to push this girl too much.

"Because you're not there so why should I come?"

"Dam-sale..."

"No need to persuade! I'll never come as long as you don't exist!" Zale replied firmly and looked at Arlana gently.

No longer debating this, Arlana fell back asleep in bed "Don't bother me! Let me sleep!"

Ignoring Arlana's words, Zale lay right beside Arlana asleep and hugged her body tightly muttering softly "Let's sleep together"

"Zale this is school, can't you-?"

"No one's here! The health teacher did not come. So in this place there's no one but us!" Zale reassured and did not take a step back

"It's hot"

"We can turn on the AC" once again Zale's answer seemed convinced and still did not want to lose.

With a long sigh Arlana just let her body be embraced by the man then started to close her eyes with a sweet feeling in her heart.
