Between Love and the Mafia
69. Roy and Bela's place

After school, Bela walks casually out of class. Suddenly Beni came over to congratulate Bela without knowing the exact reason.

"Hey, congratulations" Beni came to lend a hand but Bela was still silent, then Beni grabbed Bela's hand to welcome the hand.

"Congratulations to what? " ask Bela in wonder.

"Congratulations that you've already entered the painting selection, you like art don't you? "Clearly Beni as if he knew what Bela's likes were.

The two of them chatted on their way out of class while Mario watched. Likewise with Brandon and Sela, they know Mario's unusual gaze on Bela and Beni who are busy talking.

"That's still Beni's selection not necessarily also passed but how do you know if I follow the selection "ask Bela while giving a probing look at Beni sharply.

"Obviously I know I'm a fan of yours "the truth that doesn't make sense from Beni while pinching Bela's cheeks.

As if the two of them showed the affection of a lover, it increasingly makes Mario's brain boil because they disagree with what they do.

"Hurry up if you don't want to go home, Alex's brother is waiting for you "cried Mario suddenly reprimanding Bela while he was still cool talking.

Mario gives a very funny look that makes Sela and Brandon pay attention to that face and makes them both smile like knowing that Mario likes Bela more than just a friend.

" Hurry is so coy I still talk to Bela "said Beni slapped Mario's hand. Mario quickly threw the clap of the hand.

Mario's gaze was getting annoyed and very cold he did not like when someone approached Bela let alone his rival, Beni.

"I'm not talking to you I'm talking to Bela "past Mario in a stressed tone.

Beni just smiled looking at Mario, he felt that Mario was desperate because he saw the two of them were talking very friendly. Moreover, Beni was happy because he had held Bela's cheek gently earlier.

They are both busy arguing between Beni and Mario while Bela is very lazy to hear the debate they both do not know about what. Finally Bela left the two of them without saying much more and immediately went and got into Alex's car.

"It seems that there is no point in you guys arguing because Bela has gone "said Sela broke the argument between the two of them.

Mario and Beni immediately looked around, sure enough that they did not find Bela. Mario soon leaves Beni to pursue Bela and finds Bela because the girl left a few minutes ago to leave their argument.

"shit "peeking Mario with annoyance.

Then he left his two best friends still standing behind Mario and staring at the funny events before their eyes.

While Beni he came home happily while riding his motorcycle with a typical smile because it had managed to pinch Bela's cheek and all this time he dreamed.

Happiness is simple and need not be expensive. Happiness can be created with a grateful heart even if you get a little. That's how Beni is, he's so happy just for pinching Bela's cheek and hoping that next time he can hold Bela's hand.

Meanwhile, at Ana's school.

Roy had been waiting for Ana at the gate, before long Ana came and caught up with Roy because they had an appointment. Not to forget Ana tells El to go home first and reasoned that she wants to go group work with her partner.

"I don't think you came "tell Roy to Ana.

"How can I forget my promise. But where do you want to take me?" Ana asked very gently but did not get an answer from Roy.

Without saying much Roy walks through a village and rice fields and Ana can only follow the steps even though she does not know where they are going.

Ana is also not used to the streets they go through because it passes through the rice fields and through the sidewalk and it feels very hot weather and not suitable in Ana's skin.

"Why, are these streets tormenting you? We'd better stop "Roy's smile because he knows that Ana won't stand the journey they're going through. And Roy's sure Ana will give up soon.

Unlike Bela anything they will live as long as the two even though at this time only Roy himself will undergo it because Bela has been no longer beside him.

Roy continues the journey casually and calmly while Ana is still busy with her own journey even she took off her shoes when passing through the rice fields because it feels really uncomfortable even she regretted not bringing sandals.

* Press *

"Oh my feet, Roy why do you have the heart for me "yell Ana upset when she sees herself falling but Roy doesn't care.

Not long after, Roy stopped his steps and turned to walk towards Ana, he just stayed and stood up without doing anything.

"Do you not want to help me Roy ?"anna shouted in annoyance. Roy remained silent looking at Ana.

"Ah shit I know you won't even help me even though this body fell in the middle of the rice field "etus Ana then tried to get up from the mud puddle.

But it felt very difficult because the more he tried to stand the more his body would get into the mud. Even Ana's clothes were filled with mud and she saved her bag containing textbooks so as not to be damaged.

"Come here "Roy extends his hand gently to help the child get out of the puddle. At first Ana was still silent and looked at Roy with her flying mindset when she saw Roy.

Because he felt that Roy had a soft heart even though his face was cold. Ana immediately clasped Roy's hand to get out of the hole.

Roy holds her back firmly but suddenly Ana's legs slip back so they both fall into the hole. So that the pair of eyes looked at each other with hearts mixed together.

Though he only wanted to get rid of his own feelings when he saw Ana. Roy immediately rose from the hole and Ana followed him by holding Roy's foot. Both of their clothes looked dirty and wet.

"Why am I the unlucky one, you should blame this place for so much mud that it made me fall "obviously Ana because she disagrees when Roy says that he is the unlucky carrier that has made Roy fall also in the hole.

" You're so chatty, it's better to just go home if you don't want to go down a road like this" Roy's face came back cold and even his words had no feelings. But Ana will not give up because she wants to know more about Bela that Roy wants to show.

"Just son I've come here and you tell me to go home, won't be "so happy Ana defiantly. Roy doesn't care about Ana anymore and then he cleans the shirt in the river near the rice field.

The river was very clean and Roy took off his clothes casually even though there was Ana nearby. Ana doesn't know what to do, but at the time thought she was just following Roy.

He followed Roy who was walking towards the river on the edge of a nearby rice field but his eyes were shocked when he saw Roy undressing and cleaning him quietly in the river.

"Are you crazy to take your shirt off like this while here I'm "shouting Ana at Roy.

"If you don't want to see my body, just cover your eyes" Roy said coldly even himself as if he didn't care then continued back to clean the shirt.

Ana has no choice so she also follows Roy by cleaning the shirt in the river but does not open it because she is a woman. After their shirt was a little clean Roy went back to walk to a place where he and Bela were always together. No matter their clothes were wet, Ana remained enthusiastic to follow Roy's footsteps.

"Please wait here" Roy ordered when they reached a small hut.

For a moment Ana enjoyed the fresh air that blew from the rice fields it felt very calm and made her lips smile with joy even the Villa owned by her family did not have such calm and cool air even though the day had already increasingly afternoon.

"Deplace your clothes inside" Roy gave a pair of clothes and pants to Ana. She still cared about Ana even though her face was flat with no expression.

" This is whose clothes" Ana asked in surprise. He thought the little hut was Roy's house because the shirt Roy got was so easy.

" Don't talk too much, change inside. If you don't want to then you'll wear a wet shirt like that" Roy said.

Ana obeys Roy's orders and he goes into the hut to change his clothes.

"You don't peek at me" Ana comes out and tells Roy that because she's afraid that when she changes clothes and Roy suddenly comes in and does something bad to her.

"I have no lust for you" Roy answered casually as he lit a cigarette and sat down and enjoyed a very calm breeze.

He thought flying considering that Bela suddenly came and immediately took the cigarette and they laughed together until dusk.

Meanwhile Ana was surprised by the contents inside. Although the place is made of bamboo, but the contents in it are very clean and neat even plastered photos of Bela and Roy with their distinctive smiles.

Ana also did not expect it turned out Roy had a smile as beautiful as that when with his sister. But he did not know why when walking with him Roy did not give the slightest smile even his face was very cold and arguably frozen.

" It turns out you can laugh too, just watch out next time I'll make you laugh Roy" muttered Ana talking to herself in a photo plastered on the wall of the hut.

After Ana changed clothes and then she returned to see a photo of Roy and his sister's memories. What a beautiful scenery but at all Ana has not felt that Bela's laughter is very loose when she was next to Roy.

"Your smile is so beautiful, Bela, if God allows me to enjoy that smile and laugh then I will do it every second so that I do not lose the moment in the least" muttered Ana back with a smile looking at the lines of the photo.

He did not expect that Bela had that laugh after that, he thought back to wondering to God if he could go back to the past then he would not waste Bela even though for a second would love Bela as he loved El.

There are some things on the table such as a guitar, wooden toys, key chains and much more. Those things look very well maintained and clean.

"I'm the one who lost because I wasted you and let you laugh with someone other than your family Beka" Ana's tears just escaped when she remembered Bela who was gone.

He could not bear the pain because everything had passed but his heart was still very sick when he remembered the fact of his brother's death and the fact of the man who killed his brother.

" I promise you, Bela, that your cheerful laughter will never be lost in my heart, even though I never felt it" exclaimed Ana While looking at the photo and holding some neatly arranged items on the table.

"Don't hold anything" Shouted Roy loudly. Ana immediately removed her grip from the objects, including a photo of Bela and Roy.

"Sorry, I just want to see it" said Ana in a small tone.

Roy immediately rearranges and re-cleanses the items. He did not want anyone else to touch the items in the room. Because Roy took good care of him because in that item Roy felt the presence of Bela who always accompanied him when his heart was sad.

"Is this your place and Bela's? " Anna ventured to ask Roy even though it was seen that Roy's face was very upset with him.

"Why do you ask, don't your eyes see this room clearly" Roy said.

Then Roy went back and sat outside. Ana follows him and wants to ask a lot of questions but she is afraid that Roy will get angry again. Because at that time his heart was not good either.

It was getting late, but Roy was still silent without talking again. While Ana feels very guilty because she has been presumptuous to hold Roy and Bela's goods. It felt like awkwardness was re-created between them.

"Roy sorry, I'm just glad to see the stuff inside. Because I felt the laughter of Bela being so loose" Ana broke in the silence of the two of them. His face revealed a sense of truly embracing blame for his behavior that Roy disliked.
