The First Curse of Love
12. The Dark Side of Pricilla

"Now, lo stuff!" Qiara said with judes while throwing Danny's bag containing futsal clothes and shoes.

Danny caught it. And without the slightest guilt, he exclaimed, "nice throw, My Girl!"

Qiara was upset half to death to Danny. How not? When she had just arrived home after returning from the studio, Danny called her and asked her to bring her clothes and shoes. Not to mention later tonight he has a broadcast schedule. Qiara, who initially intended to rest, had to abandon his intentions and immediately brought Danny's futsal equipment to a futsal court, where Danny used to spend time in high school.

"Partially you can not bring the same clothes shoes even though you want to play futsal. You want to know me, right?" Thud Qiara fiercely while ruffled around the waist.

"No, Qi. I met Patton on purpose. Patton suddenly made me play futsal. He said, I've been telling you long enough." Danny answered while attaching the bag to his shoulder, then got up and stood before Qiara.

After hearing Danny's explanation, Qiara began to be able to understand. But still, this shitty guy messed up his break time. After all, why didn't Danny ask Prissy to deliver his futsal kit?

"Yes, I'm going straight back."

Just as Qiara was about to take a step away, Danny suddenly just said to her, "lo don't want to keep it here.?. nemenin me?"

The situation suddenly quieted. Qiara was able to catch that there was no joking gurgle from Dany's tone just now.

And if pulled back, while still dating first, Qiara always faithfully accompanied Danny to do his hobby of playing futsal. Not once was he absent from the activities that used to be like it had become an 'obligation' for him. And I don't know if Prissy did the same thing she did.

"Call the girl lo gih! Don't take my shit on." Qiara answered just now to sound indifferent while still turning her back to Danny.

Then, before Danny had a chance to say something, Qiara resumed his steps that had stopped.

Suddenly he felt very angry.

"Eh, Dann! That's your girl, right? Qiara?" Patton asked who had suddenly appeared with some of his other friends shortly after Qiara left.

"Eh? I –iya." Answer Danny's crime.

She's shocked. Didn't expect that Patton and the others would suddenly appear like this. He didn't even understand why he gave a 'yes' answer to Patton's question just now.

"Customers too, huh, you guys?" Said Patton again.

This time Danny did not reply, and only smiled stiffly while scratching his nape.

Once finished playing futsal, Danny immediately pulled over to the edge of the field ahead of the others.

When he dropped his body on a long bench on the sidelines, someone suddenly stuck a bottle of mineral water right next to him.

Danny, who was regulating his noisy breathing, immediately turned to the side. And he was quite surprised to find out that it was Qiara who was sticking out a bottle of drink for him.

The smile on Danny's face instantly expanded.

"Qi, you still here? I thought you were back." Said Danny enthusiastically while receiving the drink Qiara gave him.

"Gue don't want to be ambekin later because I stay." Qiara answered while taking a sitting position next to Danny.

"So, from earlier you did I play dong?"

"Yes. And you look like the undead in the middle of the field. There is no spirit at all."

"It's also because of you. Because you said you wanted to come back." Danny's grunt was slow, so it was barely violent.

"Lo, what the hell is that?" Qiara automatically dodged towards Danny.

"No. I didn't say anything." Elak Danny's.

Qiara then took a small towel next to Danny, and in a very natural motion wiped the sweat off Danny's temple without saying anything. While Danny, he did not throw comments and let Qiara do his job well.

Not long after, Qiara was able to see Danny's other friends walking up to them. Qiara immediately released the towel on Danny's lap, then got up from Danny's side while reaching for the plastic bag containing the drink he had brought. A while ago Qiara went to a minimarket, bought a drink for Danny and his friends.

"Now, Pat! Share it with others." Qiara said, handing the plastic bag over to Patton.

Patton accepted it and gave it to his other friends.

"Thank you, yeah, Qi. Lo best!" Patton Imbuh.

"You're welcome, Bro!" Qiara answered while winking her left eye.

The thing that Qiara did was, it immediately triggered the laughter of Patton and the others.

"If so, we go first, huh? We don't want to disturb you guys." Pamit Patton later. But Patton's remarks just now, successfully made Qiara shocked in disbelief.

While Danny, he grimaced immediately. Didn't expect that the situation would become like this.

Then, after Patton and the others left, Qiara immediately threw a questioning gaze at Danny, as if demanding an explanation that second as well.

However, before Danny could explain, Qiara suddenly received a phone call from Dean who was waiting for him outside. Before that, Qiara did have a promise of going with Dean today. That's why, he asked Dean to pick him up.

"Lo still owes me the same explanation about this, Dann!" Said Qiara warning and left Danny who was still silent in his place.

...****...

"Sister Dean!!" Call Qiara in a loud enough voice when he saw the figure of Dean who was already waiting for him in front of the building.

He half ran up to Dean, then smiled so wide as he stood before Dean.

"So where are we going today?"

Highlight Dean's eyes seemed to sparkle after listening to Qiara's question. He let out a small laugh while gently patting Qiara's head, "Where do you want to. Today I will follow all your requests. And later, I'm anterin to the studio. "

"So real Dean?" Qiara asked enthusiastically as she grabbed Dean's hands and held onto them.

Dean nodded with a happy smile on his face.

"Today Brother Dean belongs to me, hehehe..."

"Sister Dean! Just get a little bit." Pinta Qiara to Dean.

"Why?" Dean then lowered his head. And he was amazed when one of Qiara's hands landed on his head and rubbed his hair.

"So Dean, what's up? Brother Dean's hair can be dirty like this?"

Dean did not answer. As his two eyes lifted and fell right on Qiara's pair of soothing brown eyes, a pleasant thump sounded from within his chest. Again Dean smiled. A smile that radiates hope in him.

The more days since he first fell in love with Qiara two years ago, the feeling in his heart grew more resolute and clear. And Dean, don't intend to avoid it. He likes that feeling. He likes to be close to Qiara. Qiara is his dream that he wants to make one day.

Then later, in a situation that was very thrilling for Dean, surprisingly, Danny suddenly passed them by deliberately walking in the middle, as if deliberately wanting to separate the two lovebirds. He walked quietly without even looking back.

"Danny, why the hell? Very happy today! CHILDISH!!" It was Rutuk Qiara who really felt surprised by what Danny had just done.

But Danny did not respond, and kept going regardless of anything.

The other with Dean. He actually smiled cheerfully when he saw the behavior of Danny who was very childish in his opinion.

...****...

Prissy ran towards the door as soon as she heard the bell ringing. When he opened the door, his face immediately beamed when he saw Danny who was standing at the door of his apartment with a charming smile.

Unwilling to waste a long time, Prissy immediately brought herself into Danny's arms, and hugged the young man tightly. Almost three weeks without meeting Danny, enough to make Prissy feel the longing is very intense.

"Darling, I miss you." Lirih Prissy closed her eyes.

Danny's hug really felt comfortable, and it managed to make him feel better.

"I miss you too, dear." Danny then slightly let go of his embrace, and again said, "try here, I want to see your face first."

Prissy then looked up, letting Danny trace every inch of her face, "astaga! Why are you getting so pretty? My heart is beating." Said Danny in amazement while pretending to show his surprised face.

Next, Danny hugged Prissy who was now laughing in his arms. She was actually worried about finding Prissy's face that looked thinner than the last time she saw Prissy three weeks ago. But Danny did not want to convey his anxiety. He was afraid that it would only make Prissy feel insecure with her appearance.

They enjoyed their romantic dinner together. Before Danny arrived, Prissy had everything ready for this afternoon. He even cooked it himself for Danny.

Prissy placed a table and two chairs in a position right next to the window that displays the night view of the city below.

"Geez, I forgot!" Danny squeals suddenly in the middle of their dinner.

"Why, Dann?"

"Qia must have started broadcasting by now."

Danny then got up from his seat, he walked into the tv room and immediately picked up his phone and connected an earphone so he could hear Qiara's broadcast. He did not even catch the uncomfortable reaction shown by Prissy.

"QIARA AGAIN! QIARA AGAIN!!" Prissy yelled quite loudly after she had previously kicked the table in full force.

Danny, who was just about to put the earphones in his ear, immediately paused his intentions when Prissy's unexpected screams startled him.

"Can't it be? Once when you're with me again, don't you mention the girl's name?"

"Priss?" Lirih Danny quietly who still does not believe what he is now witnessing.

Apparently, Prissy's emotions from earlier this afternoon, as she slapped her personal assistant's face were still struggling. His clutter has not subsided enough, but at this time Danny just aggravated the situation.

"I've been trying all along to see Qiara as your best friend. But I can't. No matter how hard I try, in my eyes, she's your ex-boyfriend. No matter how hard I try, I can't get to see you close to her, or mention her name in front of me."

Prissy's tears slowly fell. The pain mixed with tightness was increasingly agonizing tormenting his chest.

He even feels very hard to be able to tell Danny that soon he will leave, he is very difficult to convey his concerns between continuing his dream, or staying with Danny here. But Alvin doesn't even understand anything, and it makes Prissy feel tormented.

"You always say her name in front of me. You talk about him every time you're with me. You even left me a birthday party so I know he's sick, have I ever complained about that?"

"Prissy I'm sorry. I don't mean anything like that." Danny took off his phone and looked at Prissy with a clear glance.

"Do you still love Qiara? Don't you ever have feelings for me, Danny?" Prissy's voice started to sound hoarse. He tried hard to fight the tightness in his chest.

His depression suddenly rippled. Prissy is already at the stage of no longer being able to control herself. Then one by one, the buried wounds came to the surface. Her parents divorced when she was a child.  The betrayal her mother made to the Papa she loved so much. Obesei and all his Mama's hopes were laid on his shoulders. His life is always restrained because the demands must be perfect from his mother. A failure that almost destroyed his dreams, and Danny's inattentiveness, attacked him blindly.

Until finally, out of his consciousness, he broke the glass on the table. The rest of the shards that were still in his hand he held as tightly as possible to make his hand bleed out a lot.

"Prissy, what are you doing?" Said Danny with both eyes wide open. His heart instantly melted.

Danny panicked even more, when Prissy targeted the broken glass right on his veins. Then at a quick pace, before it was too late, Danny walked over to Prissy. He crouched down in front of the girl and pulled her into his arms. Prissy tries to rebel, but Danny hugs her even more.

"I'm sorry, Priss. It's my fault. I'm really sorry." In a slow motion, Danny snatched the remaining glass from Prissy's hand. It also helped make Danny's hand hurt, just like Prissy.

"Danny, you're evil as I am. You never loved me in the first place." Prissy said with a strong enough suction.

"Stttt..." Danny stroked Prissy's hair gently, then said softly, "i've loved Qia more than a friend. But it's just the past. Right now, the girl I love is you, Priss. Any time, Qia will just be my best friend. It can never be more than that. Hm?"

"lik! You lied!" Lirih Prissy hit Danny in the chest several times.

"You can hate me, you can be angry with me, you can curse me. But please, don't ever tell me that I don't love you, Priss."

Prissy's crying in Danny's arms is getting worse. He shed all the pain and all the tears that he had endured all his life.

And it was only in Danny's arms that Prissy was able to do it.

"I'm sorry about you, huh? I'm really sorry for hurting you. Please don't hurt yourself again."

Today Danny finally knows, all the darkest sides and deepest pain that has surrounded Prissy all along.
