Uta & Alber [EN]
111. Fighting Once Again

Flashback Continuation

The Alber POV

The night had entered the middle, but my eyes did not fall asleep. I didn't think my mind would become that tangled, just because of a hug. I can't imagine if Felix kissed ... Aarrrgggghhh!!! Maybe I've gone all-out.

I'm right in the dilemma right now. The relief of knowing my true feelings for the tie girl, caused a new shock. What am I supposed to do? Should I keep fighting for my feelings? Or choose to retreat if in fact they get back together?

All I know is, Uta doesn't have any feelings for me. All this time, he had obviously only considered me a friend. My good looks and athletic physique, as if unable to grab his attention. Even my intelligence and personal, can not captivate him. A treasure? It's not even on his list.

Several times I asked the possibility for us to be together in the future, he always answered with certainty, that it was impossible. Even worse, he thought I was sick and suggested going for treatment.

Uta actually built a super sturdy fortress, to protect her heart. The crying that comes out when telling his memories with Felix, can indicate two things. First, he felt the pain back then. Or secondly, he still loved the man too much. Only this, the most logical reason to interpret the tears of Uta at that time.

Is that a sign I should step down? End this feeling, even before you have time to express it. But I swear by anything, I'm really not willing.

I choose to think positively. It's possible that the meeting was a gathering before Felix officially left Z1. Toh Uta said she was determined to move on from the man. I decided to fight again. Fighting my feelings for a tie girl.

The sleepiness that never came, made me suddenly cross check the results of the camera recording was impromptu. I took the camera lying on the nightstand next to the bed. I took the camera's memory card, and I put it in a tab in the nightstand drawer. I played the file coming from the camera.

Actually I'm a little embarrassed, because it feels like I'm like a pedantic man, asking Uta to record my actions. But that feeling of shame turned into a smile, upon hearing Uta say something.

"Aaaaaaaa Alber is so cool." He heard her cheering with the other audience.

"If you do, from tomorrow I want piano lessons to become an Alber kayak pianist, let our class graduation just buy a nice suit. Get ready to yell at you, Seto Mania." It sounds like Seto is saying his plans that he wants to be in my position next year.

"BABEHKK ... You want to throw me up!! Which I believe is a disgrace Z1. Shame Set if there is a horrifying. There, you in the boycott on graduation with the kids." This time Reta who responded to Seto's remarks, complete with acting nauseous and wanting to vomit. That's what I know, because the camera's focus is on Reta, Seto and Sandi. It seems that Uta unintentionally aimed the camera, because her attention was seized by their quarrel.

"Akwkwkk ... Sett .. Seto. You are-there is. Some girls are on a scene, because Albernya is already handsome from the sonna, aka handsome to the max." Uta answered Seto. I didn't expect it at all, Uta praised me like that. A wide smile could not be withstood, curving at the maximum on my face at this moment.

"But Aa Seto is also handsome, right Neng? Eleven twelve, same as Alber." Ask Seto again, a seductive fad towards Uta and Reta. Really the Seto ...

"Eleven two hundred times." Answer Sandi who was also surprised by the creature beside her.

How not, egrang is a traditional game, which uses a pair of tall bamboos for walking. Bamboo is shaped like a tall stick, which has a footstool and is made of wood. Egrang is generally played by children in ancient times, because the game was once so popular. Egrang, too, can be used for an attraction or show. It could be that Seto was told to play fair, by Reta.

The video continues with a focus back on me. Uta seemed to enjoy the entertainment, because the camera moves with the exact same rhythm as the motion of the audience. Sometimes he unconsciously praised me, when one by one the songs finished I played.

But apart from that, guilt came back to my heart. I feel, I have fixed the childish silence Uta like before. How will I face it tomorrow? What if he's mad at me? Hopefully, he's not mad at me.

Still from Flashback

The Alber POV

Tomorrow, even though I slept too late, I woke up at 05:00 a.m. After finishing the morning prayer, I decided to go back to sleep. As a result of only being able to sleep at 3 pm, my eyes are still not fully literate. I woke up at 08:30. True definition of waking up bad luck, for me who used to wake up early.

Instead of taking a shower, I chose to find out where Uta and Putri were, and what they were doing. When he wanted to peek from the 2nd floor, Abla suddenly came out of his room, making me misbehave.

"Tumben really woke up in the afternoon Ber? What do you want to do?" He asked with a suspicious look, making me suddenly nervous.

"Nge-gym." I went straight to the gym at home. Abla is no ordinary sister. A long time ago, Abla knew I was hiding something. I don't know what kind of instinct she has, but I can't lie to her.

I decided to exercise, because I had already entered the gym. On the other hand I am not ready to meet Uta either. Worried as awkward as yesterday. What if Uta came back to hurt me? It doesn't feel really ready. Sport seems right, to prepare me mentally for it.
