Chapter 21: Chapter 21

Ruzzel’s POV

When I woke up the next day, I immediately looked for Aliyah… but she was no longer around me. Only the bowl with a lid was left in her loving memory. HAHAHA.

I removed the lid of the bowl. It was a porridge. So she cooked it all along? Does she know how to cook? Yes, porridge is a porridge but yes, she can cook. Aliyah is caring indeed. I thought she would not take care of me but she just did.

I was about to eat the porridge when suddenly someone texted me.

"Hey! Eat that porridge! Get well! You're so ugly! Bye! ”

Oh, is that message the missing ingredient in the porridge? It seems like a while ago I said she was caring, but now… I'm taking it back, she doesn't even have the stain of sweetness. Huhuhu.

I was thinking about typing a response to her message but I just thought to thank her personally. I would like to say I was thankful because of her kindness last night.

Before I went to school, I first went to the flower shop. Flowers for Aliyah, red roses, not the white one anymore. I may be beaten again if I give her white.

When I arrived at school, I immediately dialed her number, but no to avail. I went to their room, no to their avail as well. One of her classmates said that she did not attend her class today. So I just went to my room. I need to get into my class. Not all the time, I will be absent. I need to be a role model for my fellow students. Hahaha. Just kidding. So goodbye, I'll go in first. Hahahahha.

Concentration makes a motion zero one. Oh, I can't concentrate! I am thinking about Aliyah. Why didn't she come to school? Why can't I contact her? Why is it… She can’t love me back? Joke! Hahahaha!

After the class, I went straight to their house. Her housemate leads me to Aliyah's room. It seems that Madame Aliyah is still asleep, so it's time to wake her up.

Before I finally entered her room I knocked first. But after I knocked about a hundred times, she still did not open the door. Is she sleeping so deeply? Tsk.

I rotate the doorknob, luckily unlocked. I kept going inside.

“WHAAAAAATTTTTT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!?!?!? ARE YOU TRYING TO RAPE ME?!?!?! ” Aliyah shouted.

I smirked. So she is awake. Why she didn’t open the door for me? >_< And one more thing, she is so ambitious. I don’t have that kind of idea in my mind. I wouldn’t rape her even though I love her that much.

“Relax, My Aliyah. I am just here to ask why you were absent today?”

“Relax your face! Who gave you the right to enter my room?”

Then she threw a pillow at me.

I returned the pillow she threw in a nice way, I did not throw it back because I may be beaten up if I did.

"The relationship between the two of us gave me the right to enter your life, Oh, I mean your room sweet lady.” I suddenly covered my mouth. Come on Ruzzel, do you still love your life? Do you still care about your future? You might be killed in no time dude because of what you’re saying! Hahahaha.

"Asnjcbsdvbidsoacndsjndsncdsncs RUZZEL GET OUT OF HERE WHILE I'M STILL TRYING TO STOP me FROM HURTING YOU!!"

Will I run away? No. That’s not allowed. I'll just fix myself, I'll try.

"Uhm Aliyah…" I gave her the flowers I bought earlier. "Sorry. I'm just concerned about why you are absent. ”

Silence…

Then she spoke.

"I am grounded."

"S-s-s-s-sssssseeeeriously?" By her age, being grounded is still applicable? Hahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahaha. I am thinking about teasing her but I just immediately get reminded of my life.

“My parents found out that the ones I have beaten up were still in the hospital. Nearly facing death. ”

"I-ii-is it true?"

She gave me a death glare... That kind of death glare will cause the rise of all your body hair.

"My aunt is the one who did this, she’s the one who told everything to my parents. It’s her fault. Now help me.”

"W-w-what can I do for you?" I am hesitant about the idea of helping her. It may be hard for me. It may put my life in danger.

"Kill my aunt." As I’ve said, put my life in danger.

"W-w-whaat? K-ki-kill y-your aunt? bb-but A-Aliyah...."

"Or else, I will kill you." Put my life in danger. Put my life in danger. Oh last, put my life in danger.

It feels like all the amount of blood running through my body is almost drained. I can’t believe my ears are hearing these kinds of words from her. Is she dead serious here?

“HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHHAHA”

And I just heard her laughed. She is laughing like a witch.

I smirked.

"You look stupid Ruzzel."

I smirked again.

“Call my mom. Talk to her. Ask her we are leaving. Ask for her permission. If you refuse to do it, I will beat you for real.”

And just what she wanted me to do, I took all the courage to speak to her mom. Fortunately, her mother agreed even though Aliyah is grounded.

It makes me weak. My load runs out because it was an overseas call. Hahahahhaha just kidding. I’ll do everything for Aliyah, fighting!

Aliyah immediately got prepared. When we were at their gate, she looked for my car. She is not allowed to use her car because she is grounded.

“I did not bring my car, Aliyah…coding. Maybe it is better if we will take a ride by the means of public transportation.”

She gave me again a death glare. I just didn’t mind it.

We waited for some tricycles, bus, and taxi but no one passes by.

No choice Aliyah, we have to ride a jeep.

“Come on Aliyah, let’s ride a jeep. There’s no other vehicle passing by.”

“Aish! I don’t want to. Try to find something else that we can ride but not the jeep.”

"Look, we are waiting here for so long but no one passes by. You notice it as well. Nothing passes by, right?"

She rolled her eyes.

"You find."

Psh. Patience Ruzzel, patience.

“Jeep is the only one available, now if you don't want to, then let's just go home. ”

“Ke ke ke! Fine! ”

I secretly smiled. I won for the first time! Hahahahahaha.

She jumped into the waiting passenger jeep. All the passengers were looking at her. She sat at the very end of the seat, just behind the driver. I planned to sit beside her but she threatened me that she will slap me if I will sit next to her. What if I just leave this brat right now? It is perfect timing, she doesn’t have money with her as well because she is grounded. Hahahahhaha.

After a while, the jeep started its journey, hahahahha just kidding sorry for the choice of words.

The other passengers started paying. Since she was at the very end, she could do nothing but hand over the payment of our fellow passengers. Every time she reached for the money, she is rolling her eyes. Hahahahha! A certified brat indeed.

"Aliyah, here’s our payment. Please hand it out to the driver.” She gave me a death glare. Did I just do something wrong? As far as I’m concerned, I did nothing. I paid for her fare.

"Get this," she said to the driver but the driver seems not to notice her.

"Hey, I said, get. this!" her voice raised a little.

A heated situation. Fortunately, the driver took the money.

“Don't you have any coins, Miss? I do not have an available change for a thousand. ” said the driver.

Aliyah took a glance at me then looked at the driver again.

"You keep the change."

I was pissed at what she said to the driver. Is she that cheerful giver? That is my allowance! It is not her money! How could she give it just like that!

"Oh really Ma'am, thank you."

"Small thing. Continue driving! You must hurry. ”

I regret why I even went to their house. I would not be in this scenario today.

Later, someone extended a payment again.

“Miss, can you give our payment?”

“Go, give it if you want. I did not ride here just to reach your payment.”

My mouth hanged open because of what Aliyah said.

“You’re so rude! Just be thankful because you are beautiful!”

"I."

"You should not ride here if you do not want to hand out our payment."

"Shut up loser."

And even before we got into a big fight, I grabbed Aliyah’s hand then left.

What a ride. Aliyah’s mouth is an indication of war. Psh.

"We'll just walk a little further where you wanted to go, we have left no choice but to do this. You better not fight with our fellow passengers.”

She would have answered but I suddenly stopped and kissed her nose quickly just to shut her up.
