Love In The Midst of Hostility
Chapter 36 - Quietly Meet

...༻⊚༺...

Lika's presence at school immediately stole the attention. Her position as the most popular girl in school is not excluded.

Jia who almost shifted Lika's position, did not mean anything. Especially when the girl has already spread the name of the man she likes.

Zafran from earlier put on a sullen face look. His two hands were folded in front of his chest. He was annoyed to hear the talk of his classmates who kept talking about Lika.

If the male disciples were to praise all out, then the schoolgirls were to spout cynical words for Lika. To be honest, all of that really bothers Zafran.

Bruk!

Zafran smacked his two hands onto the table. Until he became the center of attention.

"You can stop talking about Lika?!" zafran said as he looked at his classmates.

Everyone was instantly silent. They just exchanged glances and tried to understand Zafran.

"Lo don't go overboard, Zaf. Naturally Lika is now in the spotlight. The person he just appeared after a few days off" said Ervan who had been sitting not far from Zafran.

"Gue can't stand to hear it!" zafran said as he sat down to the chair. He is not angry because of hate, but because of jealousy.

"Saking hates you same Lika. It's so weird to know!" sahut Ervan's.

Zafran finally decided to leave the class. That's when he got a message from Lika. The girl invited him to meet at the back of the school.

The pupils of Zafran's eyes are enlarged. He rushed to the back of the school. Deliberately came first than Lika.

Zafran waited while leaning his back against the wall. He sometimes looks to the right and left. Ensuring the appearance of his girl.

Feeling that he waited too long, Zafran naturally practiced his habit. That's smoking. He picked up a cigarette that was always hidden between unused chairs.

Zafran put the cigarette in his mouth. Then take a lighter that is also hidden with his cigarette.

From a distance, Lika managed to catch Zafran's actions. He breathed a heavy sigh, then walked over.

"Still yes.I don't want to talk if you're still..." Lika did not continue her sentence, as Zafran quickly turned off and threw away the cigarette.

"habits. Sorry.." said Zafran. Smiling while raising his two eyebrows together.

Lika tried to understand. He stepped closer before Zafran.

"It looks like we have to hide if we want to meet," Zafran added.

"That's right. Because if everyone knew, then automatically our family would know."

"You don't have a problem, do you have a relationship like this?"

"It's important we go first." Lika linked her hands to Zafran's fingers. The two exchanged glances.

"When you go home from school, do you want to go out with each other?" bring Zafran.

"Where?"

Zafran thought for a moment. He just remembered that coming home from school later he had basketball practice. The guy reflexively patted his own eel.

"Gue forgot! After school I have to practice basketball" complained Zafran who felt sorry.

"It's okay. I can wait!" Lika looked enthusiastic.

Zafran's forehead frowned. "Correct? If someone asks me how?" he said he was astonished.

"I won't wait in the audience seat. Take it easy," said Lika. One hand slapped Zafran's chest.

The doorbell sounds in class. It marks the end of Zafran and Lika's meeting.

The cup!

Unexpectedly, Lika floated a short kiss to the cheek. After doing so, Lika quickly ran away from Zafran.

Zafran's face flushed like a ripe tomato. He held onto the cheek from Lika's lip patch. Now the guy just shook his head and smiled to himself.

...***...

Basketball training has arrived. Zafran is training as usual. This time his spirit was very strong. He even became the one who put the ball into the ring the most. Mr. Genta who trained, even amazed by the spirit of Zafran now.

"Zafran! Keep your spirit up until the game. It's amazingly good!" praise Mr. Genta while applauding.

"Ready, Sir!" reply Zafran with enthusiasm. He was trying to find Lika. But the girl's whereabouts have not been obtained.

While on a break, Zafran took the time to send a message to Lika. Ask the whereabouts of the girl.

'Wait a minute, I'll be there.' That was how Lika's reply sounded.

Zafran tried to hold back a smile. Then continue to practice basketball.

One hour's gone. Basketball training is over. One by one everyone left the indoor court. Except for Zafran who actually sat in one of the audience seats. He put the backpack on the next chair.

Zafran tries to keep contacting Lika. But the girl did not respond. What Lika did, caused Zafran to become agitated.

Now Zafran is completely alone. Due to waiting too long, he finally decided to go home.

Haven't had time to go far, suddenly there was a clattering of steps from the front. It was none other than Lika.

"Sorry late. I was drinking with Chika and Nadia." Lika gave an explanation without being asked.

Zafran said nothing. He threw his backpack on the floor and took a basketball.

"I'll be sorry if you're willing to play basketball." Zafran looked ready to play. He was still wearing a basketball suit.

"Aren't you tired? Didn't you finish training?" reply Lika. He was too lazy to play basketball. Remembering sports is something he doesn't like. But want how else, Lika certainly can not refuse the invitation of the guy she likes.

"You're not going to wear me like that again, are you?" Lika ensures.

"Yes! Our relationship is different now" replied Zafran.

Lika finally agreed. He and Zafran started playing basketball.

In the vast indoor field, there were only the two of them. Zafran's skill at playing basketball is unmatched. Especially for a person who can't do anything like Lika. The girl can't even touch the ball.

"No exciting! It's just you playing by yourself!" Lika sulks. He seems to have taken the bag and is planning to leave.

"Cie. cramming. That's why if you can't say dong." Zafran prevented Lika's departure. He forced Lika to take off the bag and dragged the girl back into the field.

"Let me teach ya.." said Zafran. He was right behind Lika. Throwing his head over his girlfriend's shoulders.

Zafran's two hands locked Lika's slender waist. He's in a position to hold a basketball.

Zafran deliberately showed how to drible the ball. He did so in a position as if hugging Lika from behind.

"Easy right? Now you can try it yourself." Zafran handed the ball into Lika's hands. The girl complies. He played the ball according to Zafran's guidance.

Actually Lika's feelings are not careless. His heart continued to rumble when Zafran was very close.

While busy dribbling, Lika accidentally dropped the ball. He automatically wants to take the ball. But he could not, for Zafran's hand was tightly coiled in his stomach. The guy was clearly clutching Lika from behind. Lika could feel Zafran's warm embrace on her back.

"I love the feeling of being close to you." said Zafran, closing his eyes. Now he placed his chin onto Lika's shoulder.
