“You can't play, don't be reckless.” Hardik Rai is still trying to ban Esta from playing.
“Yes, Rai. Could talk all right. Who knows Esta has hidden talent so far.” Zinniya Bela.
Seeing that no one was on his side, Rai finally decided to let Esta play. But he had to keep watching the girl.
Two sets have passed with the scores balanced between the teams. Even though Esta was on the pitch, she was quieter even when the ball came to her she did nothing. It makes the opposing team so excited and continue to direct the ball to him.
“I told you he can't play. From the looks of it at the type of man who is afraid of the ball.” Dengus Rai on Akash.
“Ya justin, please. Just messing around.” Akash defended himself. Though he was also upset because Esta could not be relied on at all in the game. If this continues, you can be sure their team will lose.
Esta has tried her best to catch the ball and return it to the opponent, but somehow all the balls that lead to her appear too fast so she is always late to fend it off. He has even been a laughingstock many times the opposing team and his own team. He is not good at anything.
Actually, Esta was being careful that the ball did not hit her stomach area. She is aware of her condition and she does not want anything to happen to her baby either. So, he dodged more than the ball landed on his stomach.
But this time, the ball given by the opposing team is difficult to avoid. The ball was pointing right at him and somehow his mind became empty and unable to move. He even just pegged in place while the ball got closer to him.
Stupidly, Esta just closed her eyes tightly. I don't know what the point of that is.
Buk up!
The ball bounced off the back that stood in front of Esta.
“You okay?”
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..” There was cheering from his friends.
Esta opened her eyes and found Akash giving her back for a protective shield.
“You didn't get it, did you?” Ask Akash again.
Esta who immediately realized immediately looked at the man who was smiling at her. He nodded slowly with a face that had faded because now he became the center of attention.
“Kash! What the fuck, woi?!” Pekik Trio from across.
“Bacot!” Hardik Akash's.
“Cieeeeeee..... Akash, have played open-open nih.” Seloroh Tina's.
“Akash what are you doing?! Cepetan step aside, woilah!”
However, Akash did not immediately step away from the field and instead continued to stare at Esta inside with a smile.
“What are you doing there? You like Esta?” Chirps Arin who adds to the cheers of her friends.
“Iya.”
Suddenly everything became quiet. They stared in disbelief at Akash who was still standing in front of Esta.
“What's really why? I like Esta.”
Firm, solid, and clear. The words uttered by Akash made Esta's face more red. Plus now he is increasingly in the spotlight by his classmates.
“Udah, you don't have to play anymore, yes. Replace with Sabila.” Akash said later.
“Cieee, Akash! Apparently you're a gentleman yes.” I don't know who interrupted that.
Already embarrassed, Esta was only silent when Akash pulled his hand to get out of the field and was immediately replaced by Sabila. While Rai was glancing sharply at the two while crossing. But then he immediately turned his attention to the middle of the field and focused on helping his team.
Akash invites Esta to sit down to rest under a tree beside the field.
“You're ashamed, huh? Sorry.”
“Why? They also know that I like you. Only you may not know.”
“Tau. I know that you like me, Kash. I'm just embarrassed, I feel less suitable decketan with you.”
“Lack of matches how?”
“This body cap.”
“Why is your body?” Akash asked while watching Esta's body.
“People say I'm like an elephant sitting, you know. You're not ashamed of walking with me?”
“Even with gini, no? Women will look beautiful in the eyes of the right people. And you are beautiful in my eyes. What if you are fat? Is fat a sin? Though you are not that fat you know why even minder.”
Something was shaking in Esta's heart. It feels amazing to be able to get such attention from a man. The attention that he had never felt before made his heart beat faster and made his face again blush.
“So, how? I'm not accepted to be your girlfriend?”
“Pacar?”
Akash nodded. His gaze was hopeful. It seemed like he was also holding back his heartbeat which was also on the rise.
“I don't have time, Kash. You were horrified by yourself, Mr. Jamil was angry with me all-out. Hold up the test and my grades should go up.”
“I'll help you learn.”
“What are you rated for?”
“17. Hahahahahha”
“Woilah! Not too far away is the same me.”
“Hahahahahahaha” seems to me that Akash is trying not to be awkward.
“Sorry, Akash. I think I can't now. Don't know later.”
“Later,, means I was immediately rejected, nih.”
“Do not cry. Hehehehe.”
“My love is the same you are sincere, Ta. Tell me whenever you're ready.”
Dilemmas. Esta was confused. His current state was very unlikely to accept Akash's feelings. Moreover, she and Rai are married and she is pregnant with the boy. Somehow how to explain it to Akash later. She wants Akash to be her lover.
If it wasn't like this, maybe it wouldn't be this big. It is also impossible for him to tell Akash about his condition. No, he would not be able to endure that shame.
“Woi! Who's acting dong!!” Pekik Rai is directing his team. It seems that the man is emotional because their points are far behind. The shout made Esta and Akash look straight at him.
“Friday child.” Seloroh Akash to Rai.
“Friday?”
“He was always that way. Own whole if you lose. It's just an ordinary game. Rai wants to win and not lose. If you lose yes so, angry he.”
“I'm sorry, Kash. But I don't have long to study. I want to, I want to graduate from here.”
“Nothing really. I told you that my feelings are sincere. So I will not judge you and I will respect your decision. I know, Ta. So don't think about it anymore, huh? For now, let's both focus on the same exam so we can pass together.” Akash smiled even though the smile looked bitter and forced.
Esta let out a heavy breath. He felt bad for Akash who had treated him very well. But he should reject it for now. He had to hurt the good man so that everything would go well.
