Still In Love's
EP. 65. Chances

********

Blue who was playing ball with the children in the yard next to the orphanage chased the ball that accidentally rolled away from their place.

“Sorry, the ball–” Blue said when he saw a girl wearing a long coat pastel colors combined with a gray mini dress was crouching to pick up the ball.

Blue was so gasp as the girl stood firm and raised her head towards him. It seemed that the girl was just as surprised to see Blue, until she subconsciously dropped the ball in her hand.

“Jingga . . .” Calling lirih. His body immediately stiffened as soon as he found the girl before him turned orange, his gaze fixed on the girl he missed so much.

Nothing changes from the girl, still the same as when Blue last met her, beautiful. What was different was just her short hair with a shoulder-length layer cut, and that made her even more beautiful until Blue's eyes were reluctant to blink.

With his heart pounding violently, along with the longing that had accumulated in his heart, slowly his feet moved forward towards the Orange, his hand then began to touch both arms of the girl's shoulder and squeezed them along with his breath that began to choke. Blue just wants to make sure that he's real.

He looked back at the face of Orange who was now also looking at him with eyes that were difficult to interpret. His eyes seemed to be glazed to find the orange figure that was before him at this moment without any flaws. His heart was relieved and deeply grateful to know that Orange was alive and returned safely.

Then without being able to wait any longer, Blue immediately brought the girl's body into his arms. He spilled out all the yearning that had been piled up in his heart all this time.

“Thank you for coming back.” Blue with a heavy voice.

The next second Blue was made startled as Orange suddenly pushed his body rough until his embrace came off. The girl then rewinded herself slowly to distance herself from Blue.

“Ji?” Blue's voice sounded soft, his gaze was clear, he then tried to re-capture the body of Orange, but the girl brushed off his hand.

Blue looked at Orange with a wounded gaze, his heart breaking in pain when he saw the rejection of Orange, especially the look on the face of Orange who looked at him expressionlessly.

His smile and warm gaze seemed to vanish and turn into chunks of ice in an instant. Why is it so painful?

“Jingga.” Blue again called out his name, the call was heard full of pleading. However, not a single word broke out from the mouth of the Orange, as if his mouth was tightly gritted to Blue.

Then with a slow motion Orange turned around and stepped his legs to pass away from there. Blue prepared to chase after her and opened her mouth to call out the girl's name. But the voice of bu Kinan precedes calling the name of Orange, making Blue clench his mouth again.

“Jingga.” The girl stopped her steps as a very familiar voice called out. Inevitably, he turned his body back. Bu Kinan was standing next to Blue.

“Where to, Ji?” Bu Kinan asked in surprise because the orange came, but did not enter as usual.

“Bu Kinan.” Orange squeaks with a choked voice.

“Where are you going, Ji? Why not sign in?” Repeat Bu Kinan with a frowning forehead.

“Sorry, I have to go home again, Mom.” Reply Orange smiled inappropriately.

“Lho, why? Did it just come?” Bu Kinan stared at the astonished orange that stood with a body that looked trembling like that.

“Sorry, Mom. There's urgent business. Next time I'll be here again. Excuse me.” The orange doesn't want to linger there. With an almost expressionless look on his face, he quickly passed away leaving the orphanage. This obviously left a variety of questions in Bu Kinan's head. Because, infrequently Orange behaves strangely like that.

While Blue, she ran after the fast-running Orange while continuing to call out her name. Bu Kinan himself was increasingly confused to see the sight.

“Please don't believe it, Ji.” Blue managed to grab hold of the orange arm that was about to open the door of his car. But Orange again managed to jerk Blue's hand until separated from his arm. Then he quickly got into the car when Blue was a little off guard.

“Street, Sir.” Tell Orange to Mr. Asep, the driver who took him.

Blue sighs heavily. He could only stare at the car that Orange was riding in getting away from his gaze with a sad look. His eyes even now look glassy, making Blue have to blink to try to keep his tears from falling.

********

Meanwhile Orange, he leaned his back on the back of the chair. His gaze was empty, his chest felt tight, he wanted to cry, but it felt impossible because in front of him was Mr. Asep.

Her accidental return she tells her best friend Sky to surprise her on Aunt Rossa's birthday, and her plan after that she will play with the children of the orphanage, instantly the plan was muddled when he saw Blue who was somehow also there.

Closing his eyes, Jingga tried to catch his breath well so that he was calm again, and his tears did not spill.

“Non Orange is fine?” Ask Mr. Asep who was curious about the appearance of an orange face that was not as cheerful as when they left earlier.

“Nothing. Please walk more tight, sir.” Pinta Orange without opening her eyes. Not much to ask again, Mr. Asep complied with the request of his employer's son by increasing the speed of the car to get home immediately.

Arriving at home . . . .

The orange took a big step to get into his house as soon as he got out of the car. Orange half ran to his room, he did not even pay attention to Mother and Dusk who called him as soon as they passed the room where they were there.

Orange locked the door of the room, then leaned behind the door, his body that had indeed been limp and vibrated violently since meeting Blue instantly slumped to the floor, his legs can no longer pretend to be strong to support his weight.

Shortly after, an orange cry broke out, she shed her tears that she had been enduring ever since.

“Why can I trust gini?” The orange squeezed the upholstered cloth in front of his chest. His breathing seemed short along with his chest that felt tight.

Orange was completely confused by his current feelings. For a moment, he felt his heart as if it was numb, Orange thought that he could already throw Blue out of his heart.

Butwhy? Why did the pain come back the moment he saw Blue? No, not only was the pain, Orange also missed her and her heart was pounding again. It was very desirable for him to ask how he was when the guy looked at him with a sad look earlier. But his pain and disappointment towards Blue overcame him. Orange doesn't know how to deal with Blue now.

He hates Blue, but deep down, there's still a lot of love for the guy. But even so, the orange does not want to get sick anymore.

********

In the evening, Jingga just came out of the bathroom wearing her casual clothes. Then he crawled up onto the bed, getting ready for a break. But just as he was laying down, the sound of knocking on the door of the room undid his intention and went back to sitting.

“What's up, Brother?” Orange asked in surprise when she saw her sister-in-law enter the room.

“There's Blue under.” Answer Dusk as he approached Orange and took a seat next to it.

“Terus?” Ask Orange doesn't care.

“Yaaa do you think you want to do something again? Obviously he's here to see you.” Replied Dusk while rolling his eyes lazily.

“You why, anyway, disturb people want to rest?” Orange Grousers while swerving. Amused whispers were heard from the mouth of Dusk upon hearing the speech of Orange.

“Don't be too sprained, ntar mate.” Ledek Dusk while wiping full face Orange.

“Okayah.” Sahut Orange while shuddering.

“Males, ahh. Huh, brother tell him to come home. I'm tired.” Orange said back to lay down, then covered his entire body, just like a corpse lying down.

“Do not do that, Ji. Far away, you know, he's here.” Omel Dusk while pulling the orange blanket to reveal his face.

The orange snorted violently, then grunted. “Why, anyway, you guys are still good with him? She, tuh, already fucked me.”

“Kan who has your business is the same him.” There was a breath to pause his sentence. “Not her brother ngebelain Blue. But it's also not good that you ignore him like this. If you do not want to be with him, yes meet there, love him clarity if you want to end your relationship.”

Orange was silent for a moment, fondling the twilight speech just now. “Tck, really hard, hell.”

The twilight was amused to see the orange who again sat down while jerking his blanket.

“Where to, Ji?” The question of Dusk made the Orange that had walked up to the doorstep stop its steps and turn around with a frowning forehead.

“Kan Sis who said I should meet him.” Sahut Orange ketus.

“You sure you want to leave like that?” Dusk highlights Orange who currently only wears black muniko hot pants and short sweatshirt oversize.

“Why? I use a towel if he's ever seen, kok.” Sahut Orange nyeleneh, making Dusk almost choke his own saliva. Even if what Orange said was true, the girl was too brave to tell him that.

“So I don't want to know, change your pants first.” Tell Dusk firmly, not heeding the frontal Orange speech.

Orange grunting. But even so, he still obeyed the orders of his sister-in-law and took the training pants carelessly from the closet.

“Do not say that you are the same Blue already. . .”

“What?” Sambar Orange glared

Dusk just stared back at Orange with a meaningful gaze while tapping his index finger. “Tap-tap?”

“Ihh, good. Is it the same sister as Kak Bintang? Udah, ahh, come.” Sahut Orange while holding the arm of Dusk to get out of his room. The two threw each other a plunge before then arriving in the living room.

There looks Blue who is busy chatting with his parents and also the Stars. Orange just stared at the scene was awkward.

“Ehh, that's Orange is down.” Mommy said when she saw the Orange that was standing near the sofa. Blue smiled warmly at him, but the girl immediately turned her face away.

“Organ, you are polite the same Blue.” Reproved Dad who does not like the attitude of Orange. The orange itself just pauses no matter.

“Can we talk outside?” Ask Orange coldly, then without asking for approval he went first.

“Saafin Orange, yes.” Mother said not feeling good.

“Nothing, Tan.” Reply Blue with a thin smile, then move from his seat to then step following the Orange that has walked before him.

********

Orange and Blue now sit on the hood of the back of the car owned by Blue.

Previously, Blue thought that Orange walked up to her car because she wanted to actually take her out. But her guess was wrong, Jingga just invited her to sit there.

“Udah long ago. You how are you?” Ask Blue. He had long wanted to ask the girl. Not forgetting a warm smile on her red lips.

“Don't beat around. What the hell are you doing here? Everything is clear, right?” Blue Heart jolted at the orange speech. Long-winded? Is asking how it is not possible?

“I know. But I miss you. I want to see you, see your face, and ask you.” Answer Blue smiled bitterly. His gaze could not be separated from the face of Orange who had been reluctant to look at him since.

“I’m okay.” Speak Orange with its flat tone. He then jumped off the hood of the car, then raised his head to look at Blue's face. “Udah done, right?”

Blue was speechless with a confused frown on his forehead.

“Meet me, look at me, and nanyain tidings of me. So, excuse me.” Continue orange then while turning around to leave Blue. But quickly the guy held his arm to bring Jinggga back to face him.

“Aaan, anyway?” Orange jerked rough Blue's hand until it slipped off his arm. Blue looked at the girl with a wounded look. Orange was really cold to her.

“Remember I'm back. I want everything.” Orange was stunned, his heart was beating strongly, a feeling of pleasure infiltrated into his heart hearing that. But Orange did not want to waver, then he hurriedly threw away the feeling.

“Ya nice. That means no more reason you need me.” Sahut Jingga relaxed with expressionless face.

The Blue Heart again felt the pain of seeing such an orange reaction. Shouldn't the girl be happy?

“I'll always need you until anytime.” Blue's tone of voice sounded clear, his gaze full of protest.

Orange smiles obliquely with a small headband. He could no longer believe anything from Blue.

“I'm sorry, Orange. For all the things that make your heart hurt.” Blue said then, his eyes full of sincerity. This time his hand turned to clutching the hand of Orange.

“I'll excuse you. Now, please release me.” Said Orange who tried to release the grasp of Blue's hand. But the guy tightened his grip.

“If so, can we get back together?” Ask Blue expectantly. “I remember everything and you know I really love you. So, can we try starting again?”

The orange fluttered, his eyes sticking down, staring at the Blue hand grip on his hand.

“Please give me a chance to fix everything, hum?” Please Blue again.

Orange looked up, looking at Blue with a sharp gaze while smiling a grin. “Acclocation?”

“Please. . .”

“Before I always gave you a chance. But you want to, don't you? You instead used that opportunity to keep hurting me and make the same mistake.” The look of the orange eyes changed softly. His speech sounded soft, yet deeply pierced into the recesses of Blue's heart. He could still see a deep disappointment in the glare of those clear eyes.

No more fighting Blue. He seemed to be at a loss for words to reply to Orange's words. Blue could only stare at the girl with a sad and regretful look.

Along with that, Blue's hand grip slowly began to stretch. The opportunity was then used by Orange to release his hand from Blue, to then leave the man who stared at his departure with a look of despair.
