Between Love and the Mafia
60. Seek Attention

By gathering courage high enough, finally Mario expressed his feelings that stated that he liked Bela. But Bela rejected that, even though in the heart of Bela the deepest also has feelings for Mario even a little.

" I don't know why you're talking like that, all I know right now is that I just think of you as a friend no more" Bela said, he lied to his own feelings because in his heart he knew that they would never be together.

Bela also does not want to give more hope to Mario. So he said that he only considers Mario as his brother-in-law and also his best friend at school and there is no word more than that.

This time Bela again tells lies, but from the bottom of his heart also has a sense of secretly in Mario. Because Bela's intention is only as a person who will unite brother and sister not as a separation of their brotherhood.

"People say that girls and boys are alone in the middle of the devil "Excite Beni who suddenly came and was in the middle of Bela and also Mario.

" Yes you're a demon" Ketus Bela. Beni only smiled while Mario's face returned flat and cold.

Fortunately Alex had come to pick up Bela and Bela immediately got into the car leaving Mario and Beni. Not to forget Bela waved to Mario and Beni as a farewell greeting.

While Mario's face looks so bad because his heart is also bad when receiving rejection from Bela and only hear the word as a friend.

" Is the world war over? " Bela cried while in the car after seeing Cintia and Alex sitting in front side by side. While Bela who became the passengers behind or arguably repellent mosquito both of them.

" It's been dong because our cannons have run out to bomb" Sahut Cintia then his face turned to Bela with a smile as a sign that they have improved.

"Thank God then So I can calm down" cried Bela chose to sleep on the back bench with calmness on the outside but not with her heart.

Bela tries to close her eyes while recalling Mario's words to Bela stating that she likes Bela. In the depths of his heart he wanted to accept Mario as his lover but he was confused in the bottom of his heart as well he considered Mario as a friend.

Especially considering that Bela is tied to an arrogant Lord who only attach importance to false status to please the oma but treat it arbitrarily.

Bela feels flying between two worries because of the many bonds that ensnare her life. One of them is still under a marriage contract with Bara. Moreover, Bela wants to know love more clearly How he found someone who sincerely loves him until the end of Bela's life.

"What a shit my mind" Bela grumbled a little in the back of the car while holding her head. But his eyes are still closed.

Arriving at the house Bela still saw Bara with his usual face. Since they both moved in the new house Bela and Bara rarely speak even almost never in one day.

Because Bara is busy with his own work even busy in his own room without going out and sitting to see Bela. The crowd was only created by the mood and excitement of Alex and Bela without intermediaries.

" You guys didn't come down? " ask Bela when she sees Alex and Cintia still in the car.

" Not my sister, I want to go for a walk with Cintia because today is her last day here and tomorrow she has to go back to America" explains Alex.

"Isn't Cintia's sister still a week away?" Bela said curiously because Alex said that his girlfriend would stay another week but why suddenly not a week and Cintia had to go home.

" Yes, because he has interests in America" Alex said. Bela just nods and pretends to understand Although she does not know the importance of what Alex says that causes Cintia to go home sooner.

Bela went inside the house and passed Bara who was sitting relaxing on the porch while enjoying coffee and busy in front of his laptop, it feels uncomfortable if you have to keep quiet constantly finally Bela seeks a way for them to talk again.

Bela immediately changed clothes and went back out and sat in front of Bara so they faced each other.

" Mister, why have we rarely spoken lately. Did I have your fault?" Ask Bela while holding her face with her right hand placed on the table and the glare of her eyes fixed on Bara's serious face in front of the laptop.

"Be quiet I'm busy" she said with her cold face. Bela understood now he had to make a new breakthrough for Bara to return to speaking like yesterday.

Finally Bela took a broom and mop then she cleaned the yard sweeping then planted flowers in a pot and she did to take over Bara's attention so as not to continue settling into the laptop.

But still a sense of indifference was thrown from Bara's face and also his behavior, not only did not get a greeting but also Bara just left and returned to the room.

" It's wasted my job, it's fucking tired but he doesn't mind me Just watch out I'll reply later" muttered Bela, he had felt hot and tired in the afternoon planting flowers in pots but did not get the attention of Bara. Bella's lips smiled and this last way would definitely make Bara talk to her.

Finally, Bela went into the room and locked the door and fell asleep. She plans to sleep until night and not cook so Bara can knock on the door and call herself out. Bela is sure that Bara still needs him.

Actually not without reason Bela sought such attention because she felt that Bara changed. In the past when he was at home Oma Bara talked a lot to him even though it was just a falsehood because Bara was afraid that everyone in his house at that time knew if they had a false status.

But since moving to a new house and there is no oma it feels Bara is getting quiet and never giving a reprimand. Especially when considering the last time Bara was angry after Bela was delivered by Beni. Bara also almost killed Bela, maybe that's when the estrangement between them gets bigger so that it feels like a stranger.

"I'm going to fall asleep and wake up at night, if I need to, I'm going to wake up tomorrow morning so she can look for me and ask if you're okay, Bella" Bela said. Even he also ignored Cintia who was still outside.

Bela imagines Bara worrying about herself if she doesn't come out of the room . With peace and quiet Bela sleeps under a thick blanket and AC with a temperature that suits Bela.

Meanwhile Alex and Cintia are having a very romantic dinner. The two of them celebrated the day of reference for having fought yesterday. At once they will celebrate the farewell again because Sintia will return to America tomorrow.

"What's with my head, his face always makes my heart not okay. No, no, he's still my prey that I have to destroy" Bara's back in a quiet room.

Bara is bored because his life continues to be filled with revenge, let alone the revenge is focused on one person who is currently being counted in his mind, Bela.

Because the main grudge was already avenged at Sisil lived the second and probably the last grudge on two important people namely Prabu and Erik. They were subordinates of his father who betrayed and killed Father Bara and Denada.

" I will avenge you and soon your son will suffer from Prabu" Bara said while holding a photo of the Prabu family and his three daughters and one of them is Bela. Bara had also locked Erik's current residence.

Erik is not in Indonesia but he moved to Australia just to hide his identity, it was very easy for Bara to meet Erik and avenge his family's death by torturing Erik's family.

He was just waiting for time to finish off Erik and Prabu's family to the roots.

"You know Erik I've locked you and your family away, just one step away your whole family will fly to hell" Bara said with a flushed face holding back anger.

Time and again he had to face the photo of the two traitors with high hatred. Many times also the photo is always reminiscent of the departure of his father and Denada very poor. The anger in his life will never go away even if the revenge is reciprocated because they seem to have ruined the happiness of Bara and his family.

In this world there is no real apology, even though the apology has been accepted, but the true incident will never be forgotten until the soul is lifeless.

The night seeped through the skin of Bara who was sitting on the balcony while enjoying the night breeze that continued to rustle gently in his ears.

No one ever knew if the stars always made Bara smile because she felt that Denada and her father would see her from above the sky.

" Dad I'll calm you down in heaven, you wait there dad because your revenge will soon be avenged " the empty conversation between the air was delivered by Bara with a huge grudge in his heart.

The ruthless mafia will be willing to kill anyone let alone people who have disturbed his life that made him become devastated with the pain of the moment.

It will be certain that none of the traitors will survive the wrath of a grudge that has burned so badly.

" Denada did you not miss To complain to oma to let her pick me up again?" Again his words whispered to the sky that never answered as badly as Bara.

Because he knew Denada was just the most beautiful sky decoration among the visible stars. Sometimes on one night Bara wanted to meet in silence her eyes never cried but her heart was always sliced when remembering the happy times between their families.

It was as if everything had disappeared swallowed by an uncertain time and never asked what he wanted.

Many say that the mafia is a strong man but not if he sits and is pensive in silence in the dark of the night, his tears will flow in his heart even though his eyes look firm.

"What a pesky night this always makes me sad" Bara said rudely back to himself. Then he went down to dinner downstairs.

He felt strange because usually Bela knocked on the door to invite Bara to dinner together. But when he was already under the room was very quiet there were only guards in front of the yard and there was no one else.

Alex and Cintia were also absent and his gaze headed towards Bela's room and it was seen that the door was tightly closed. When Bara walked to the dinner table, there was no food that made him very upset because Bela did not prepare dinner for him. After that Bara stepped into Bela's room, but when he opened the door it was locked.

*tock, tock, tock*

Bara knocked on the door hard but there was no answer from the inside and the door was still locked. Then he shouted to call Bela's name but still there was no answer from within.

Bela had woken up at first but she chose to pretend to close her ears and not hear anything and then closed her eyes as if she was enjoying a beautiful sound.

"Finally you are looking for me too sir, keep shouting because I want to fall asleep "Strong Bela chuckled lightly as he grimaced and his gaze stared at the door that was shaking as Bara's hand kept trying to open the door.

*Track*

With his annoyance Bara kicked the door until the door was broken and damaged. Bela is surprised to hear that but after feeling Bara's anger, she returns to play her role and pretends to be asleep.

Bara approached and his hand pulled the blanket Bela. It was clear that Bela's self-strain was mixed with fear. But inevitably he must remain pretending to be asleep so that Bara does not talk to him.

"My history goes that if he finds out that I'm pretending to be asleep, Bela you have to fall asleep and not be caught "inner Bela cries out in fear, she calms herself down and deepens the role from being seen if she pretends to be asleep.

Meanwhile, Bara's hand holding Bela's forehead to check her body temperature slightly looks worried in Bara's eyes because she is afraid if the girl in front of her back hurts like at that time.
