...10. ...
...DUSK AND ARNAV....
...About us started from the help I gave you which then even you misunderstood....
•••
The new clock shows at 05:40, but Arnav is up and sitting in front of the villa. The guy was wearing a thick hoodie because the cold of the Peak area was so piercing to the bone. The guy just silently looked at the morning dew that slightly covered the scenery.
Chequek!
The door Arnav closed opened again, revealing a girl with well-detached hair. He was wearing a jogging suit wrapped in a thick jacket.
"Eh, you're awake?" Dusk was a little surprised to see Arnav who was sitting while looking at him.
"Where are you going?" ask Arnav.
"Gue's gonna jog for a second."
Arnav got up from his seat."I want to say something to you."
Twilight cringed, "What the hell is that?"
"Not here."
***
It had been almost five minutes of Dusk and Arnav stood by the lake and they were still silent. Arnav hasn't yet opened his voice. Dusk occasionally turned to his cousin's lover, but there was no sign that he would open the conversation first.
"What are you talking about" asked Dusk at last.
Arnav exhaled softly, then he put both his hands into the hoodie bag he was wearing, then looked at Dusk. Right in his eyes.
"When you get to lo-"
Dusk who understood where the direction of Arnav's conversation immediately refuted it quickly. "We've talked about this before, and I don't want to talk about it anymore."
"Gue doesn't like to see you near Agum" Arnav said in a voice that sounded clearly dislike.
"Gue is close to anyone, it's none of your business," Dusk replied tightly.
"Obviously it's my business, Dusk," the tone of the boy's voice began to rise.
Arnav approached, then held both shoulders of Dusk tightly. "Lo know, right, I'm still in love with you."
Dusk shook his head quickly, brushed off Arnav's unlicensed hand on his shoulder.
"Lo's crazy? Lo Rain's girlfriend, Arnav. My cousin!"
"Rain, Rain, and always Rain you think. Have you ever thought about my feelings? I know, Sen, you still have the same feelings for me."
"No. I don't have any feelings for you, either" argued Dusk.
Hypocritical. Arnav knew Dusk was lying. Arnav knew this woman in front of him. Twilight Felicia, the girl she loved since she was in Junior High. Until Rain finally shows up and breaks everything.
"If Rain doesn't exist, we can go on, right, Sen-"
Plaque!
Dusk slapped Arnav hard. Rain was clearly not wrong here, nor should Arnav speak like that in front of Dusk regarding his cousin.
"Can you say that in front of me?!"
"Emang yes, right, Sen?! Just try that time you didn't tell me to help him, this is not going to happen."
Dusk speechless. He recalled the incident three years ago, during their first day of MOS at LITA High School. All of this was clearly his own fault, not Rain's. Rain knows nothing.
***
That afternoon, the sun was very hot. Rain is being punished around the field by one of the MOS organizers because the girl is back on her feet. Dusk tried to persuade his senior brother to end Rain's punishment.
"Sister, let me change Rain," asked Dusk again for the last time.
Senior brother Dusk and Rain were astonished. "He's wrong why are you changing?"
Bugs!
Dusk turned to the field that had been mobbed by some students. Dusk and his senior brother immediately ran towards the crowd. Apparently, Rain was unconscious there.
"Rain, Rain, wake up!" Dusk patted Rain's cheek. The girl circulated her gaze, trying to find a figure who could help her cousin. A few seconds later, his vision stopped.
"Arnav," said Dusk.
At the request of Dusk, Arnav immediately carried Rain and brought the girl to the UKS. After Dusk smeared wind oil on Rain, he went out to buy Rain a drink and had Arnav take care of his cousin for a while.
When Dusk returned, Arnav was no longer there. While Rain, the girl was also conscious and was sitting on the bed.
"Where are you from?" asked Rain in a raucous voice.
"Gue abis to the cafeteria, buyin you drink." Dusk opened the bottle of water he bought and gave it to Rain.
Rain sipped the drink until half was left.
"Cowok who won me earlier, he's the one who carried me to the UKS, yes, Sen?" rain asked with a radiant face, while his face was pale.
"Yes, why?"
Rain only shook his head slowly with a meaningful smile.
A few days after Rain collapsed, the girl did not stop asking Arnav. He even tried to find out about the guy. Shortly after, Rain suddenly says that he likes Arnav. The initial intention of Dusk to introduce Arnav as the man he loved to his cousin was dashed.
"We hope, yes, Ar" said Dusk."We don't see you again. Forget all your feelings are the same as mine. I will also forget all my feelings for you."
Arnav was obviously surprised. He thought, Dusk invited him to meet to answer his love statement a few days ago, but it was not. Just now she was about to start a new status with Dusk from the word friend to girlfriend, but the girl instead wanted to end things that they had not even started at all.
"Why? What reason?" the man's tone instantly changed instantly.
"Rain, my cousin, he likes you. I want you to get back to her feelings."
"No. You can't tell me to forget you and just ask me to return your cousin's feelings."
Arnav understood the way the girl in front of him thought. It could be that Dusk told her to accept the feelings of her cousin whom she had not known at all.
"I beg you, this time it's kabulin my wish, Ar. Rain is all I have. I want her to be happy."
"You want her to be happy in a way that sacrifices other people's feelings? That means you're selfish twilight!"
After saying that, Arnav left the already crying Dusk. Dusk wants to be selfish, he wants to have Arnav. But, he can't.
"I'm sorry, Ar," murmured twilight.
"It's my fault, Ar," lirih Dusk. "But, Rain sincerely loves you, Ar. During these three years is not enough for you to love Rain as well?"
Arnav looked at the twilight bead of eyes. "Gue loves Rain, but I love you at twilight."
Selfish indeed. But that's how humans are.
***
Agum was already sitting sweetly at the dining table while enjoying the fried rice made by Ratna. While Ratna, after cooking breakfast earlier, she returned to the bathroom to get ready to go home later in the day.
Rain walked up to Agum and sat down beside the guy, then picked up his fried rice.
"I don't know. I woke up, he didn't exist. What twilight?" ask Agum too. He looked towards the door of the room Dusk and Rain.
"Gue didn't know either, like he was going for a jog" replied Rain, then he ate his fried rice.
"By the way, why lo-mmh!"
"Come on, rain!" agum ordered because Rain spoke with a mouth full of food. Then, Agum shifted the drinking water on Rain to get closer to the girl.
"Why don't you like Arnav?" asked Rain again after gulping down the water.
"Gue is still normal so don't like men."
"That's not what I mean!"
"Lo want to know?"
Rain nodded seriously.
"Because of lo's girlfriend" Agum hung up his sentence. "But really, really, lo." Agum then resumed eating.
Rain hit Agum's shoulder hard. "Anger, yes, lo, Gum. I'm serious too."
"Haha! Why do you think it was so to me? It doesn't matter."
"Oh yeah, I changed the question." Rain again fed the fried rice to his mouth while thinking of a question for Agum.
"It's a mute, again your interview?" agum Protest. Rain lifted his spoon in front of Agum's face, hinting for the guy to shut up.
"Why do you like dusk?" This time, Rain looked at Agum seriously.
"Because he is the Twilight."
"Where is the answer like that" murmured Rain, annoyed that every question he gave was not answered seriously by the thick-browed man.
"There, I just answered so," replied Agum. "Why do you want me to come here?" Agum asked back.
"Let's get a twilight, dong. Less good are you trying to be the same? I want to help you get close to Dusk, even though I do not like you," said Rain proud of himself.
"Lo is not polite to me. Who asked for help? I can do it myself, I can."
"Lo was completely nonchalant" Rain suddenly covered her mouth, then ran towards the kitchen that had a sink, then vomited out her entrails.
"Jeek! Yuck! Yuck!"
Agum who saw Rain vomit immediately approached the girl. He helps keep Rain's long hair from getting his own vomit while patting the girl's back gently.
"Lo why?"
"Gue haggard! Yuck!" The girl regurgitated her stomach.
"Get everything out."
"I think I went in angina, deh," Rain said after his vomit stopped.
"Where there is the wind of vomiting like gitu>" Agum argued. "The wind must be farting."
Rain received the tissue Agum gave him to wipe his mouth. "Not funny!"
"Whose funniest who's trying?!"
"Rain, why?" tanya Dusk who just came with Arnav.
Dusk and Arnav approached Rain who was still standing by the sink, and they both helped to get the girl to sit on the dining table chair.
Agum sat back in his place. "Abis is vomiting."
"Kok, can?" ask Arnav to Agum.
"Lo is me?" Agum pointed to himself, Arnav nodded. "Where do I know, am I a doctor?" agum sewot.
"Lo apain? Why can I vomit" asked Dusk.
"Gue hamilin."
Dusk, Rain, and Arnav instantly rounded their eyes.
"Birder me, seriously. You're jealous, aren't you, Sen?" Agum laughed happily.
Dusk did not reply, the girl chose to focus on Rain.
"Gue was nothing, Dusk," Rain said at Dusk, trying to calm his anxious-looking cousin.
"What's up? Your face is so pale" said Arnav who was sitting next to Rain.
"Pregnant kali lo, Rain," chirped Agum lightly. "Lagian lo, anyway, Nav, dating until the middle of the mallem."
"Your mouth wants me to slap?" exclaim Dusk fierce.
"If my body doesn't lemes, I've kicked you out of here."
"Tuh, right, the rain's limp. It means really pregnant."
"Lo pregnant times," Arnav's chimpanzee told Agum.
"If I'm pregnant, that means you're the father, huh?" reply Agum to Arnav.
Dusk then invites Rain to enter the room so that his cousin can rest rather than having to listen to Agum's speech is not clear and will be endless. After Dusk and Rain completely entered the room, Agum looked at Arnav full of probing. Agum decides to follow Arnav from behind. He focused on following Arnav who was into the kitchen to take a drink until he returned to the dining table. Afterwards, Agum sat down next to the guy.
Arnav raised his eyebrows. "Why do you follow me?"
"Abis where do you equal Dusk?"
Arnav gulped his drink down the toilet. "Gue from the lake. Dusk after jogging."
"Why did it go in?"
"Me at the door."
"How relaxed are you?" ask Agum again.
Arnav frowned confusedly. "How relaxing?"
"Rain's your girlfriend, right?"
Arnav nods.
"So why do you not seem anxious to see him sick just now?"
Arnav rolled his eyes lazily. So, did he have to stir up and panic indistinctly? Not that it looks anxious, even so it looks better according to him.
"So, if I'm worried or worried, you should know that?"
"Yes not really, but at least your flat face should be able to show taste" Agum stopped the sentence he was about to say.
"Oh, yes, I forgot. Lo, right, minimal expression."
After saying that, Agum left Arnav alone.
