The My Impossible CRUSH
Episode 48: Trauma

When overwhelmed with fear and worry, Ayu's palms will be cold and sweat like ice water. For a long time he had experienced the condition, but none of his family knew because Ayu had kept it a secret.

But Rey who had been close and became the most comfortable place Ayu to complain knowing that. Therefore he took a small towel which he always carried under his pocket to keep things like this happening.

"Quiet yeah.. You're okay, right?" rey asked quietly, he looked at Ayu's face attentively.

"Yes.." said Ayu nodded, the warm grip given Rey made all her fear slowly disappear.

Watching that, Bagas could only hide his jealousy. His mind feels tight when imagining maybe Rey is the reason Ayu asked him to buy time.

As a senior from the tangle of triangular love, Bian understood the lethargic expression on Bagas' face. He stood up and pulled Bagas up from there.

"Let's go check my shoulder, does it still hurt?" Bian massaged Bagas' shoulder blades slowly to make sure.

"Don't touch her carelessly!" ketus Bagas extends his leg weight.

"It's gotta be dealt with, I hear you're a Basketball Athlete? it could be dangerous to let it go."

Bian took Bagas to the Orthopaedic Doctor's room for examination. It's really not his business if Bagas' shoulder bone breaks though. But he could not bear to see the look on Bagas' face when he looked at Ayu.

"Stop crying, Miss Rianti will be sad if you see you like this" said Rey rubbing softly the clear details on Ayu's cheeks.

"I'll take you home, will I? You need a break."

"No! Ayu will take care of Mama, what if bad people like that come again?" concluded Ayu raised his gaze to look at the Man before him.

Rey looked at the sad face of Ayu, indeed when it comes to people who love Ayu will be very generous. Same thing with what happened all this time. Ayu always pays attention, always helps, even provides support for him. And foolishly, he wasted the kindness so heartlessly.

"All your brothers have come. There's Vino and Mr Dimas here, what else to worry about? I'm even worried about you if you keep this up." Not for a second did Rey let go of her grip to keep Ayu's hand warm. If it had relapsed, Ayu could have fainted because her fear triggered an abnormal heartbeat.

Ayu remained silent, she looked at the burly hand that wrapped her palm tightly. The hand of the person he had expected the most all along.

"We just go home." persuaded Rey again then Ayu nodded her head in response.

...~...

Arriving at Rey's house, he took Ayu to his room. He laid Ayu's limp body and covered her with a blanket.

Not only that, Rey even closed all the curtains that were there so that the state of the room became dim. Then he tuned the cassette with my melody to calm Ayu's feelings.

Rey has understood the condition very well, he even memorized and knew what actions he had to take so that Ayu could calm down and recover from his fears.

"I live ya.." whispered while rubbing softly Ayu's hair.

"Do you really love Ayu?" quietly, in such circumstances he was even touched by Rey's attention.

"Freely I replied, You won't believe me either right?"

"What's the reason? what made you put that taste into Ayu?"

Rey paused her steps, she put her hand in her pants pocket and turned to face Ayu. "Mistake yourself get me used to." He took a pause by taking a breath, then continued his words.

"Your attention, your smile, even you patiently love this abnormal person. Gradually I got used to it, even I started to get nervous seeing you give attention to another Man. At first I thought it was just dependency, it turns out I don't want your attention to be divided. Only then did I realize, that I wanted to have you completely. Not as a friend or partner, but as a lover."

Hearing that Ayu's body temperature became hot cold. The reason he wanted to hear, now he got it even more than imagined.

Ayu got up from her sleeping position then sat on the edge of the bed. I looked at Rey. The man's face was really serious according to him. The usual sight he saw this time seemed different so it was difficult to explain.

"What other reasons do you want to hear?" ask Rey as if challenging.

Ayu shook her head slowly, she looked up to see the look on Rey's face that seemed ready to give a thousand statements.

"Then did you choose Him or Me?"

"Stop that..." Ayu is confused, where does Rey know that Bagas also expressed feelings?

He seems to have forgotten that Rey has a high sensitivity to the people around her.

Rey smears a thin smile. "Obviously you're confused, do you still think I'm lying?"

Ayu's eye glances instantly moved as Rey asked that. He gripped his fingernails softly because he was nervous.

Seeing that it seemed like Rey's guess was correct, Ayu still did not believe him to be a complete man.

"Alright.." sizzled Rey, he loosened his tie and lowered his head toward Ayu.

He grabbed Ayu's chin and raised the girl's face until their eyes met. In a matter of seconds Rey immediately drowned Ayu's lips in her kiss. Yeah, not a kiss anymore. But a warm kiss that has been stored beautifully by both.

All over Ayu's body became cold hot without fail, her eyelids could not even be closed to watch Rey who was covered with wisdom. He supported his body firmly with both hands so as not to be pushed by Rey's tight confinement.

"Why don't you close your eyes?" whispered Rey stroked the tiny little nape gently.

Ayu's lips trembled at that moment, only the swift sounding roar of breath made Rey resume her gentle kiss while wrapping her hands around Ayu's waist.

Feeling overwhelmed by Rey's attack, he pushed the man's shoulder to make his activity stop.

"Why?" whispered Rey with a seductive look.

Ayu really barely recognized the man. The expression and look on his face were very different from what he used to see. Ayu's heart is getting worse for him.

Rey did not think he could do that, the girl who had been looking one eye now even stirred up a great sigh in every vein.

"Stop Sir.. Enough." pinta Ayu with a voice almost lost. He could not even look at the face of the man in front of him.

Rey lifted her body from the front of Ayu "Sorry.." whispered her slowly while styling Ayu's hair scattered on the forehead.
