REMEMBER ME?...
The Part 64
As they were just gathered at the shooting location, Windy saw Kiara approaching Vano with a sandwich in her hand.
And Vano received it with a sumringah face as if the sandwich was the most precious gift in the world. At that time, Windy could only cluck in annoyance.
Maybe he was jealous.
Who is not jealous to see it?
Returning to the shooting location, Windy appeared silent near a tree while observing the shoot with a bored look. Every now and then, the girl sighed as soon as the scene this morning twisted in her mind. Made him emit white steam from his mouth.
When he was daydreaming, suddenly the property in the form of a basketball rolled towards him and then without having a chance to catch, he caught, the ball continued to roll into the abyss behind it until it finally stopped a few meters because it was stuck on a tree trunk.
“I'll take it!” windy exclaimed as he moved as he realized that he was the only person closest to the position of the ball.
“Yes! Shut up in there! Don't move!” exclaim Vano.
Windy hissed then turned his head before actually stepping. “Why? You don't like me helping you? I can be a useful person here, Vano Alexander!”
“Not so, the place is dangerous, after all you can not keep the balance!” exclaiming Vano who tried as fast as possible ran towards the direction of Windy.
Windy rolled both his eyes. Not listening to Vano's orders, the girl finally continued her steps. After all, even though the abyss was a bit steep, Windy was sure he could reach the ball. The ball was only about 2 meters away from where it stood, not a difficult distance to reach.
At every step Windy took to reach the ball, the girl was always holding the tree trunks closest to her. He admitted that his balance was bad, so inevitably he had to be like that if he did not want to fall. When he was in front of the ball, Windy smiled. He removed his grip on a nearby tree trunk and crouched down and picked up the ball.
However, when he turned around, his balance suddenly disappeared and the last thing he remembered was that he landed on something hard and his body ached all over. He also only remembers hearing Vano's hysterical screams, and feeling someone holding him before his consciousness disappears.
Moments later, when his consciousness returned, Windy turned his head and saw Vano at his side while looking at him worriedly. It seems like they have been at the health post now considering Windy can feel how much he is lying in a soft place but not as big as a bed in the hotel.
“What time is it now?” ask Windy.
“Jam 9.” Reply Vano. “The photo was stopped because of you. Proudly be.” Further.
Windy chuckles. “So? Sorry..”
“Tak apa.” Vano sighed before continuing,
“After all we have got enough pictures to publish. Actually sooner or later the shooting will stop too, right?”
Windy did not answer. That caused Vano to return to silence. Bring silence with them.
“Vano—“
“I don't want us to meet again after this.” Cut Vano.
Hearing that sudden statement, Windy fell silent. Unknowingly, her breathing choked and the girl refrained from letting out tears. “Ap-what?”
“I don't want to see you again. At least not like this. Not when you still have that feeling towards me.”
“But... why?”
“Windy, I'm engaged!” Vano raised her tone in frustration. “And the girl has been so good to me all this time. It's a part of the past that I've forgotten and now I regret forgetting it. You used to desperately force me to remember my past, didn't you? I guess if I was with him, I'd remember my past sooner. Isn't that what you want?”
“But why? Why do you want to keep your engagement? You said you didn't love her, Vano! You said you loved me!”
Vano lowered his head. “Windy, this engagement is not just about me or about her, it's about our family. And we can't do anything about it. This is to help each family.”
Windy got up from his sleeping position. “Listen, listen, you said it yourself! This is a matchmaking! You don't like it and you have to, don't you?!”
“I...” Vano was silent for a moment before continuing, “I never said that I did not love him.”
The girl widened her eyes and the stupefied feeling in her chest could not be ignored. It was so painful that he could barely breathe, making all his tears struggle in the eye, blocking his vision.
“And I do love you, Windy, really! But it was..”.
“Stop!”
“Now I'm trying to love her. And the girl is not difficult to love.”
“Stop!!!” Windy squealing. Now, her tears were spilling and flowing freely on both of her cheeks. The girl's head was bowed while both her hands clutched tightly onto the bedsheet she was in.
“You know, you're so selfish! Wh why? Because you even spoke without attach importance to my feelings!” exclaim Windy.
“You said that you loved me two years ago and you were willing to wait until I was ready to tell you how I felt! You said you'd wait! You waited two years! But in just two months your choices changed? Your feelings changed?!”
“Windy, two years is quite a long time for someone to—“
“I've even made someone wait for five years, Vano! And they don't waver!”
“Windy..”.
Suddenly the door of their room opened and Brian's figure appeared from there. Brian never saw the situation and apparently did not realize that Windy was crying because he looked panicked. His eyes met Vano.
“Vano, Kiara collapses. He's in the next room. You better get over there. Now!” he quickly went back out of the room and closed the door in a hurry, causing a noise.
Vano was stunned for a moment. Then his eyes grew bigger and stifled, he immediately got up from his seat. Just as he was about to leave Windy to head for Kiara, his hand was first held back by the girl, preventing her from leaving.
Vano turned around and found Windy had been standing behind him while holding one of his hands.
“If you can be selfish, I can do it too.” Windy.
Vano fell silent, but a moment later, the man realized what was going to happen. “Wait, don't talk. Don't continue!”
“I love you.” Windy said again. “That was your answer for these two years.”
Vano. “Windy, jang—“
Before the man continued his words, Windy had first pulled his arm, held the back of his neck, eroded the distance between them, and pressed his lips against Vano's lips. Lock his mouth from whatever the man wants to say to Windy.
