The Love of Habib
Chapters 14.5

Aish saw the water bottle. There is still half. It means that habib Khalid also drank from there. Thinking about it, Aish's face instantly became hot and began to develop a red color under the supervision of the habib's eyes.

"Yes, brother." His hand reached out to take the bottle from the habib and thanked him in a timid voice, "Thank you." Nervous whisper.

Habib Khalid chuckled amusedly. Her hands itched wanting to pinch Aish's red cheeks which started to be much more puffy than the beginning of entering the lodge.

Holding a bottle in her hand, Aish sits in the wooden chair in front of the school office and drinks the drink. Actually, he was not thirsty. But because this was the drink given by the habib, Aish suddenly felt his throat was very dry and needed this drink.

He drank 3 times as often under the supervision of the habib's eyes. Strange, only Habib was now watching him while the others shifted their focus by discussing.

"It was sweet like never before. Is this zam-zam water?" Ask Aish to guess.

Habib Khalid laughed, which made Aish even more embarrassed. Is the question wrong?

Does the question sound funny?

If not, then why did the habib laugh at him?

"It's just plain water. It was sweet probably because it was drunk by me." Refuted.

Ever drunk the habib?

Aish's heart immediately raced in panic inside his chest. It turns out that it was true what he suspected. This drink has also been drunk by the habib not long ago. And how grateful Aish was to be the first to approach the habib, if not him, then maybe Nadira was the one who got the opportunity.

Aish gets jealous thinking about it.

He bit his lips thinking hard.

"What are you thinking?" Asked the habib while lowering his body in order to talk to Aish.

Aish squatting the water bottle was nervous and hesitant.

"If..if it wasn't me who came here, would... would Brother Khalid also give the girl this drink?" Aish was as if to say that he was very jealous right now. Even an expression could not cover his mind.

Hearing Aish's question, the habib did not immediately reply. He suddenly crouched down in front of Aish, reached out his hand and grabbed Aish's detached shoelace to tie back up. Aish was very shocked by the sudden actions of the habib. His blood rustled warmly feeling his heart begin to rain down on the sea of flowers, it was so sweet that it made Aish want to cry out in tears.

Not only Aish who was shocked by the actions of Habib, the people who walked with Nadira were immediately frightened to see him. How could the habib do that to others?

Wasn't habib Khalid very reluctant to get close to another girl?

Then why is Aish not only close to the habib but also treated very well?

Their steps suddenly stopped. Their mouths opened in disbelief staring at a scene not far from their current position. Then, they turned their eyes towards Nadira. And well, Nadira was also very shocked. His eyes even glazed between sad as well as jealous. His hands clenched in heartache, how could he possibly think?

If he had been the first to come, would the habib have treated him like that?

"No, never will. Just you, everything's enough." His reply was ambiguous while tying Aish's shoes with a very serious expression.

Aish stunned. His heart was instantly crazed - no, not only was his heart crazed but his heart was also no less crazy. He wanted to cry at this moment and shout to the sky that today he was very happy.

"Sister Khalid..." Call Aish soft.

Habib Khalid raised his head to look at Aish.

His heart immediately warmed to see how soft Aish's face was right now, smiling gently, he then asked in a gentle voice anyway, "What's the matter?"

Aish ventured to speak, "Are you that these words can make people misunderstand?"

Habib Khalid immediately chuckled, "Then misunderstand me. It's okay."

Ah, Aish is itching to pinch this face of her heart. How could he possibly be this gentle to her?

Well, it's okay. Indeed, habib Khalid was supposed to be gentle and gentle only to him because Aish would not be willing if the habib did it to another girl.

Aish laughed, "Alright, then misunderstand me. I'm really happy, though." Aish is shy.

Her timid face looked extremely adorable. Different from his previous image.

So good-looking.

Aish nodded in embarrassment. Hot cheeks.

"Hu'um, I'm happy. Brother Khalid, I don't want to cover it up from you." He said he was nervous but tried to brave himself.

Habib Khalid lowered his eyebrows. Suddenly his eyes became much darker.

"Hem?"

Putting his head in shame, "Would you be right now..I'm chasing you?"

Finally, he admitted it too!

Shame, fear, nervous, and anxious. He felt all that. Mixed in his heart to form a very complicated feeling. How's now?

Will the habib scold him?

"Pursuing me?" Asked the habib still with the same strange gentleness, why the tone of the voice of habib was softer than before

Is this just Aish's feeling?

Doubtful, Aish raised his head staring at the habib's impeccable handsome face. Still with the same smile, the same tenderness, but the eyes of the habib are a bit darker than before. Is this just Aish's feeling?

"Is Brother Khalid angry?" Nervous ask.

Habib Khalid shook his head firmly.

"No, but there's one rule." Habib Khalid gave the conditions.

Aish was happy to hear it but was still nervous!

What rule?!

"Pursue. But don't turn around after you do. You just need to remember this." Habib Khalid said with a very serious tone of voice and expression.

It was as if Habib Khalid was talking about something very important.

Aish stunned. Habib Khalid's words seemed to bewitch him. Don't ever turn around, Aish will never do it. Unless the habib himself pushes him away.

"As long as Brother Khalid pushes me away." Aish said promise.

The habib's face instantly became flat, "It was just a dream." He said indifferently.

The change in his facial expression was very quick!

But dreams?

What does it mean that the habib will not push him away?

Aish wanted to scream into the sky again!

"It's over."

Aish looked down at her shoes. But his shoes were neatly tied with very beautiful workmanship.

Aish smiled brightly.

"Thank you, brother." Thank you for the opportunity, the gentleness, and the sweet smile of Khalid today. Oh, thanks for the drink too. After going back to the dormitory, I will keep this bottle and water well. Aish's mind was delighted in his heart.

"Together." Stretched his hand out in front of Aish, "The bottle."

Aish who just had a dream,"..."

But he did not hold it and immediately gave the habib a bottle of water.

Habib Khalid took it and drank it right away.

Aish's eyes seemed to be a bit troubled because after looking around the place that Habib Khalid's lips touched was the place that Aish's lips touched as well!

This..he just mis-looked, right?
