Words are powerful that it blurred what you should literally feel. It concealed those thoughts that keep running to you. Alforo's watching me with hawk-like eyes, it's menacing but alluring at the same time.
He turned to me intently, in the dark, I could see him still looking at me with those piercing eyes. I cleared my throat as I strayed the topic.
"You should not go, Alforo..."
His brow shot up.
"I'll just be going to watch, Riani. There's no problem with it."
I smirked. I looked up at him. He's wearing his perpetual scowl looking at me with those weary eyes.
My smile faded there. Now he's gaze was on me, properly fixed and didn't mind if I tolerate it.
"What can I do, Riani?" he said nonchalantly.
My eyes widened, and I was stunned. I turned to her angrily as amusement etched on his face. I bit my lip staring at him. His gaze was on me, eagerly waiting for a response.
"You're too old for me ..." I said.
"Really?" he sounds teasingly.
Damn him! A smile appeared on his lips as I cursed him on my mind, even then. His lips were twitching, gliding his eyes on me. I don't know if I will laugh or not. He's been witty and lunatic at the same time. It is also possible that he was joking. But I shook at the thought, I put it aside and turned to Alforo.
"What Riani? Can I?" he said, wondering.
My lips were apart, and my eyes narrowed at him. At the same time, he's looking at me and smiling devilishly.
"Tss..."
"You're not even serious, you can't even flirt, just fuck Alforo," I whispered the last
He licked his lips, frowning as his eyes met mine. It matched those sceneries, especially darkness. And it blended well, like a mixture of abstract you can't easily repel.
"What's that?" he uttered slowly.
My chest throbbed for no apparent reason. The urge to recalling those foreign feelings I've got towards him was replenished by a new and farther to what I've been expecting.
"I know how to flirt, Riani."
My eyes narrowed at his straight-forward statement. My heart was roaring fast, and slightly I felt something different.
"I'm not asking, Alforo!" I lash out.
His jaw clenched, his eyes widened even more at me. His lips were in rose as he eyed me again, teasingly.
"If you want it, why not?" his deep voice echoed on my system.
Fuck! I was immediately alarmed by what he said. My heart was stuttering for words. And it sent chills down my spine. I tried to maintain my composure and lost it again. It's lording my senses. Fuck. Unadulterated words were already flash on me, even though that was not really what he said—being with Alforo's. Well Damn!
"I will not try it with you."
He barks a peal of laughter, and fuck! Even his laughter annoys me. I do not know why. Maybe there's a slight sarcasm on it. I do not know!
"Then fling? I'm fine wit-"
"Fuck you! Alforo." I burst out.
He laughed, now I'm being on my usual self. I also do not know how to feel Sometimes, and I really wondered if he really kept his promise. He's in the dark watching me with those sultry looks while witnessing my chitchat on Klaud.
"Klaud!" I said happily.
I'm wearing my school uniform. I saw the shock on his face, then gently, I felt my face heated. I did not notice that there was still someone watching me. I tiptoed my lips and suppressed a smile on Klaud.
"What are you doing here, Riani? It's late." He concluded.
I looked at him. I didn't answer immediately, hoping he would get an idea why I am here at this time. I covered my lips and shook, disappointed. And what made it shallower is when he didn't even remember what this date is.
'Seeing you. "My voice was tiny.
He smiled tiredly. He even checked his watch before I gasped.
"Maybe next time, Klaud?" I sighed.
He nods in response. He delivered me on the gate. I was about to bid goodbye when I saw him busy chatting on someone. I ignored that. I never mentioned any single words just to make him recall something. I just nod watching him in the dark.
"Happy Monthsary!' Alforo's voiced caught my ears.
He's looking at me intently, as usual. I smiled sparingly. His eyes found mine. I could not laugh. He stepped closer as I rolled my eyes.
"Nice hiding!" I yelled at him.
His lips twisted playfully. I watched him approach. I'm not sure if I'm more comfortable when he's here like this or not. I ignored that. I turned to him irritably, he's always been like this. If I am not teased, he stared. He's handsome, sure! But it scared me that I'm intimidated.
"Let's date ..." he said in tone huskily.
My eyebrows met as I eyed him intently. He chuckled. He bit his lower lip while I'm drifting my gaze on the other side. Fuck!
"H-huh?" I said, now confused.
He looks at me playfully. Now I finally noticed the unuttered feels in the way he stared. Each time it met my eyes, it sent a familiar but at the same time foreign vibe on me. His lips protruded when I'm just looking at him dumbfounded.
"You're playing with me, huh?" he said sarcastically.
My lips twitch, finally got what he said. "I'm not! What are you talking about?" I uttered softly, recalling his words.
His gaze becomes soft. His lips parted after hearing my sudden words. I was immediately taken aback. What are you doing, Riani? Damn!
"Do you want it?"
My eyes narrowed. I was immediately alarmed by what he said. I averted my gaze. He chuckled, still caught my gaze at him.
"I didn't say anything ..." I defended.
He swallowed hard. His eyes damp on me softer, unlike usual. I looked at him. His eyes resemble darkness, and it made me feel ecstatic watching him this too close.
His brow shot up. A smile plastered on his lips. I even saw his eyes stayed at my lip. It's dark! But it wasn't totally that dark that I can't figure it out. I let go of the stare.
"Fine, let's go ..." he whispered.
I'm in awe, definitely. I can't quite imagine how long I stand being with him. And I don't want to recall those words I heard on this night.
He smiled boyishly, while I'm blurting out at one of the restaurants. He glanced at me. I rolled my eyes.
"What do you want?" he states.
I glance at him sharply. He just smiled mockingly, handing me the menu. I finally lowered it. I found him leaning over while grabbing my attention.
"Pasta and orange juice is okay, here ..." I smiled genuinely at the waiter.
He leers at me this time. The unusual churned of my stomach defined. His lips twisted, I was immediately alarmed. The brute always stared at me like I'm fragile that should always be watching.
"Are you on a diet?" he asked nonchalantly.
My brows raised for an unuttered question. I gasped for air as he licked his lips, still looking at me intently.
"Why?"
"You're too skinny. And well ..." he paused.
His eyes damp on my chest. I was about to glare at him for drifting his eyes when the order arrived.
He chuckled, lifting my gaze on him.
"You're still fifteen, maybe it will-" I cut him off, and kick him over the table.
"Ah! -"he screamed.
"Don't imitate me with your exes, Alforo ..." I sighed.
His lips protruded. "Fine."
"You okay, Ria?" Demi looked concerned at me.I approached him. And I could feel the length of his eyes on me."I was watching you with, Klaud…" he said softly.The volume of the sound were still there. The only difference is the neon lights were change in color playing in each direction. I approached our table. The wine and liquor were there, I sighed there."What did he tell you?" aniya.I look at Demi straightly. His forehead furrowed sharply as I just stared at him. I bit my lip there. I eyed my phone, and it's dead."What?" she asked curiously."What time is it, Demi?" I chuckled.My chest felt like a drum with excitement. I sighed when I heard I left one hour more. I seem to have poured cold water over there."It's eleven, Ria." Demi uttered.I nodded there. I smiled as a few people came to our table. I even didn't think to entertain anyone. I couldn't even answer Demi's question. I gasp when I heard
I didn't know that staring at him this long may bring slight pain at me. Like everything felt nostalgic the way he looked at me. As usual. The memories had all back as I glanced at him again. I have a lot to say. But I can't uttered any a single word as I gasp when a memory of prom entered my mind.And, I saw how Klaud gaze were instills on me.I don't know how I endured his stare at me. His eyes were tainted with pain, and I can sense it the way he looked at me. I’m a little sad for that. It's really true that for one wrong move you can dent something. Whether it's tangible or not. I noticed how long his eyes were on me. Like he's reading something through me. I averted my gaze from him there.The melancholic music sent chills down my spine. The bitterness bit me even more when he spoke again. Like he's saving every second for me to finally divery my attention to him. I bit my lip as he turned sharply."Can you look at me, Ria." he whispered huskil
I could hear in the absence of hearing Rina's knocking. My eyes were still swollen from last night. I sighed as I adjusted myself."We're all waiting for you, Ria…""Including, Demi."My chest tightened. I thought they wouldn't care for me after all. My lips trembled when I saw what lay on the table. It is consist of invitation every year. It was as if someone had caressed my chest with those who saw it.My name with an intricate design made me shivers. My heart ache everytime I remember what Alforo said. They didn't forget me. Even if I leave, even for too long. My eyes swelled as I faced Rina. I let go of the invitation I was holding. I still didn't book a flight.I sighed as I turned to Rina. Her eyes were down at me as Elton behind him whispered something."Ria, breakfast…" he invited.I nodded there. I heard how Elton gasp when Alforo immediately on my sight. Her eyes widened as Rina stared at me heavily. Elton orde
I sighed there. I averted my eyes as I lowered the guitar. An image of him in dark felt surreal as I distance a bit at him."What are you doing here?""It's late, Alforo." my voice were cold.I saw how his jaw clench. I distance myself as I saw how his gaze were tainted with pain for my move."Why didn't you continue?" he retorted me.I turned him over there. My lips parted there. I averted my eyes for a moment to finally realize."I will listen, just like before."I was aroused there. I bit my lower lip when he crouched to fully leveled our gaze. My heart ache as his eyes were not foreign in my eyes."It's too long when I heard that raspy voice, Ria." his voice cracked as I look away.He caught my eye. And this time I barely noticed the difference on his stare at me. How sorrow filled there, like the usual I am seeing myself vividly a year ago. Her eyes were red as she stared at me."How are you?" his voice were
Everything went black when I heard his voice in my ears. The cold enveloped me there. The rush of memories waving appered in my mind as my heart ache.From the first day, I was avoiding him. Everything about him."Are you avoiding him?" Demi uttered.My forehead furrowed. "No."He raised an eyebrow at me. "Eh why don't you come along?""And Klaud wasn't there." he said carefully."I can't.""Just once?" he insisted."I'm reviewing, Demi." I mocked at him.He laughed at my sigh. I drifted my eyes at her. She step closer and giggled comfortably."Eh Alforo is Sir's substitute again" she exclaimed.All the heat rage on me. I was almost stunned to hear. I heard Demi laugh when she saw my reaction."It's only a matter of time."I don't want to go. I'll just read here."He blinked as I turned my attention back to what I was reading. Its been a week since I didn't face Alforo. I also didn&rsqu
I was sleep through all unrelenting thoughts. Alforo stared at me, as I watched him too long. My heart skipped a bit when I noticed how I'm still intimidated by him. It seems just like before. But the different is noticeable. I can't quite tell it in urgent but I know it changed a bit.I did not smile. I closed my eyes firmly before looking away. I was cold there. I was shivering by my own thought. And it didn't help that the news were on him. I didn't turn it off. I don't want to be bitter.My lips parted as I finally realized. My chest tightened as I let myself listen. But I can't take that long when I heard enough."He's a doctor…" I uttered weakly in awe.Cold crept within my system. Thousand of assumptions felt futile at what I heard. I was cold there. I bit my lip. Gradually, the bitterness of realizing overwhelmed me.I thought he wasn't serious for it the whole time. My lips were trembling as my breathe hitch heavily. My lips tremble
