One Night One Billion
CHAPTER 13 - The Good Universe

Dirga continued to hiss when Aqila's flaky fingers applied a cream to relieve swelling in her fingers.

"Sssstttt..., slow down! it hurts so much!" dirga is full of drama.

"Yes this is slow, anyways why your finger is placed on the door" said Aqila who did not want to be blamed.

"What am I wrong again?" dirga said with annoyance.

"Ck, don't talk much later that there are your lips that I pinch-" Aqila was silent feeling that there was something strange with her own words that made her nervous with cheeks that were flushed. And to reduce his nervousness, he also cleared his throat.

'Ekhem!'

Fyuhhh...

After applying the cream to Dirga's swollen fingers, Aqila blew on Dirga's fingers leaving a cold sensation from the cream and Aqila's puff. Very painstakingly the girl continued to take care of Dirga.

That sweet and pretty face was very close to her, and somehow the gentle whimper and the slightly sweet attitude of Aqila, made Dirga warm up in an instant. He kept looking at Aqila and was accidentally caught by Aqila.

Aqila was getting nervous because of it, and with a little firmer, Aqila said.

''S-it's done! You can go" he said, waking up from his seat, but as if someone was guiding him, Dirga's hand pulled Aqila's wrist, causing the 19-year-old girl to almost fall out of balance.

 Brugh!

Luckily Aqila did not fall on the floor, but on Dirga's thigh, her eyes looked at each other, either because they were amazed or indeed surprised only those who knew their respective feelings.

Just for a moment, Aqila ended their gazes in a slightly pushed-up way and stood up wrongly.

"You can go home, sir. I still have a lot of work." Aqila spoke without looking at Dirga, she fixed Jeni's p3k box which she took from the room to treat Dirga.

Dirga who was tightly hugged Aqila was certainly shocked, but she let it be because she felt that Aqila was currently really being frightened, visible from her trembling body.

Braving herself, Dirga patted Aqila on the shoulder which made her realize and immediately moved away.

"Don't be presumptuous!" ketus Aqila's. Dirga could only furrow his brows in confusion, because he was the one who hugged him.

"Then I say thank you." Dirga will pass but Aqila's words make her stop her steps.

"Now huh? I mean, it looks like it's going to rain, it's already dark" said Aqila who seemed to forbid Dirga from leaving but with a sense of prestige.

"You're forbidding me from coming home?" dirga asked a little teasing Aqila who was already nervous instead of playing.

"No, who forbids you, you've already told me!"

And sure enough, just as Dirga was about to step out, the sky water had already flowed rapidly all of a sudden, as if the universe had blessed their togetherness. The lightning again rumbled against each other as an unrelenting voice echoed.

The dark clouds were clearly visible that morning. Dirga turned his head back to see Aqila who had been crouched with her hands cupped to her ears, with a trembling body and it can be concluded that Aqila was indeed very afraid of the sound of lightning.

'Reported that the main road on the road Kemangi is currently completely paralyzed, due to landslides and fallen trees, bad weather that occurred this is the cause. We urge, for those of you who intend to travel please postpone it, because it cannot be ascertained there will be a landslide after or not. Thank you, we from News Portal reported on February 02, 2023.'

That was the news delivered by a Reporter who broadcast the news directly at the scene, precisely on the main road to the place of Aqila and out of the area. Aqila and Dirga listened to the news that passed in a television station owned by Jeni. And a few moments later, they also stared at each other with Aqila's position still crouching.

Aqila got up from her squatting position, and with a flat face she said, "Yes already connected You can't go home at this time, I let you stay for a while, but watch out for all sorts!" aqila's eyes squinted cynically and passed away going backwards.

Dirga could only laugh a little at it, and without hesitation, he slammed his bo-kong on Jeni's living room couch. "Uuucchhh, how hard is this couch!" muttered Dirga who rubbed his bo-kong because he felt sick because he jumped on Jeni's usual sofa.

"Have hitchhiked not knowing yourself!" said slowly Aqila who deliberately insinuated Dirga. Yes he heard what Dirga said when he returned to bring hot tea for his boss.
