Shean & Jenny
A Flavor

My mind was messed up, the woman in front of me asked to accompany her tonight, and what does that mean?. For a moment I closed my eyes to calm my mind, set my breath in deep and exhaled slowly.

I don't hear wrong, if Jenny asks for company, it doesn't mean to do anything negative, he was just looking for an escape from what happened to him yesterday and today was caused by his girlfriend I just found out if they had just broken up.

“Sorry, but I have to go home there's something else I'm going to do tonight”. I reasoned without lying because there was another job I was working on and I had been working on it for years without the knowledge of others.

“Then I will come to your house” Jenny wishes I would like to, I think it would be useless to refuse her request I realize if Jenny must be stubborn.

He looked happy, his face bright when I agreed to take him home, even though I was just a normal guy in general, the house was deserted and there was no one but myself and Miu the pet street cat that I had saved.

It didn't take long to get to my house, he scrunched his eyes to see a dilapidated house that looks more like a creepy haunted house with dull walls and some corners on the walls have been damaged because of long time no treatment.

This house is the legacy of my parents. After they died when I was just entering 2nd grade High School, I had to live alone in this old house without relatives who helped, I have to live alone, they all avoid being hit by the burden of taking care of orphans and since then I live independently with the remains of parents.

“Just open his heels, it looks like your leg sprained”. Without refuting he opened the heels he was wearing and his hand rested on my shoulder.

“Come in”. I walked in and laid her body on the living room couch.

“Wait a minute here don't get up first, your wound is quite bad”.

“Thanks Shean for helping me, someday I will repay all your kindness”. Said slowly

“Already, I don't expect anything in return from you”.

The other side of me was happy because there was a woman as beautiful as Jenny would talk to me, but that only happened because of two events that just happened to have to be involved in her life. If all this didn't happen, would he be willing to talk and befriend me? Not necessarily, and I don't want to expect more than all this that ends up having to hurt for both.

Sounding from the kitchen, Jenny was talking on her cell phone somehow with whom, I did not dare to eavesdrop on her conversation. Maybe his parents are worried about his son, or maybe his friend.

I took some small pieces of ice cubes into a plastic bag to compress the bruise on Jenny's leg, hopefully the wound will get better soon and tomorrow he can go home alone.

“Didn't any of your brothers visit here?” tanyanya astonished because he saw the appearance of a house that is not managed also a little stuffy yet had time to clean the entire room.

Every day home late at night and also in the morning must go to the office, there is almost no free time, only on weekends I have time to clean up doing homework.

“Why silence only”

“Shortly.. Let me treat your feet.” I started massaging from the ankles to the soles with a little lotion, Jenny heard grimacing in pain and I didn't care.

“Sick tau, slow down dong”. He grumbled because my finger touched the inner wound point on his ankle.

“Hold a little.. Finish this I compress with ice cubes”.

After being calm enough. I placed the ice cubes wrapped in transparent plastic onto her ankles.

Women cannot guess the direction of their minds.

“Hei.. You haven't answered my question just now”.

“Nobody came here, besides my brother is far away and it is impossible to take the time to visit a dilapidated place like this” I replied a little annoyed because things like this are not pleasant talks.

The night is getting late without feeling, though, but he still continues to tell me about his relationship with Damian who has not been okay and tends to dominate over everything and the peak happened tonight when Jenny asked to break up with him ended with him the wounded were not only hurt but physically injured and to stand up was very difficult. There was still no end to the thought of such a rude man and I had great sympathy for Jenny having to go through bad days with Damian.

If it must be concluded, Damian is the son of a close friend of his father and plans to marry them both so that one day the big company of Jenny's father can be there to continue.

I wonder in my heart what my relationship with Jenny will look like. It still feels a little strange to have to help such a beautiful woman. I reiterate in my heart that if I was just an office-boy who happened to help beautiful women, I didn't expect anything from all this, even thinking of making friends especially in the context of romance.

at least I still know myself.

Although it seems that Jenny will be fine with this relationship, but I know enough myself with my current state that can not keep up with her usual glamorous lifestyle.

Or maybe after this Jenny will not care about my existence? it seems like it's better, so we'll go back to each other's lives as if nothing ever happened between the two of us and all end up happy without anyone needing to feel hurt, because the longer a relationship is the more painful it is when it ends.

“Shean.. Oi! Even daydreaming.” Ask a little annoyed.

“Let's take a break, I'm tired of once”. Answer thus.

I swept him into my room so he could rest more comfortably, it was impossible to let him sleep in the weathered chair the only sofa in the house. Upon entering the room, he was surprised by some of the items in the room.

“That's what map? Like the ancient map” asked him unceasingly he was amazed by the appearance of my grandfather's collection items, moreover he saw the map I stretched on a large white board next to the work desk.

“Already.. Already, you should rest, tomorrow I will tell you everything”.my word, so that he does not continue to ask.

“Yes right.. I wait for tomorrow morning”. Funny as a child who is curious about his new toy.

“Iya” says slowly.

After turning off the room lights I lay on the sofa chair and tried to immerse myself as deep as possible towards the boundless dream room.

“Then tonight my god” complains, even so, tomorrow is holiday and I can fall asleep forever after I'm done with all this.

Helping someone means that the burden he carries will burden the helper, and that is what happens to me, though sincere with all this, there is still more fatigue than usual, he said, must go to the clinic and also continue to deliver to his home.

Tomorrow will be a busy day for me, and tonight I just want to fall asleep like a baby and enjoy as much rest as possible to recharge my body.
