Chapter 30: Chapter 30

Ruzzel's POV

I slept in Aliyah’s place. She did not want me to go home because it is already late.

I am currently staying here in the guest room while Aliyah is in the other room.

The next day, we, together with our few friends got unplanned out of the town trip. Like, they have just decided to go somewhere else just this morning. Aliyah’s aunt is the mastermind. And since it is her aunt, there is no way to escape this kind of scenario. Even Aliyah just agreed to her aunt’s command. We must all join the unplanned out of the town trip.

And since this trip was unplanned. I haven’t prepared my things. I was not able to pack anything else for the trip.

I told aunt if I can go home quickly because I will be preparing my things but to my surprise, she showed me a familiar bag. And that bag is full of the things which I needed.

“Your mom did the packing Ruz, and I did the pick-up. So do not worry at all. Just help Aliyah to pack her things, that girl can be compared to a turtle when packing things. So slow that it may lead us all to sleep.”

I can’t help myself but laugh but I suddenly stopped upon noticing that Aliyah is giving us a death glare.

I just help her packing as her aunt says. And yes, we have finished after an hour.

When checking and figuring that everything is fine, the aunt said that we were finally leaving.

Upon looking at our service vehicle, I was a bit shock. Guess what it was? A car? No. A rental van? No.

A bus.

Yes. A bus.

Feels like we are students who are conducting some educational trip. The vibes are almost the same.

I got on the bus and immediately looked for Aliyah, she went first because I think she will reserve our seat but to my surprise, it was Joana who is seating next to her. There is no available seat beside them that is why I pouted. The only available seat is beside Tatsi. Wait, like seriously? They are here as well? Did aunt invite a lot of reasons why she rented a bus?

“Hey Ruz, can you ask Joana if she can exchange her seat with you so that she can seat beside me instead?”

I patted his shoulder. I know that bro, you don’t have to tell me that. I must be the one who is sitting beside Aliyah. Yeah, I know, I know.

Then I poked Joana and asked if she can exchange her seat with me, at first she did not agree but because of my charm, she just agreed in the end. Hahaha hahaha.

Aliyah throws a deadly look at me and she just decided to sleep. Wait, have I done something wrong again?

I am forcing myself to sleep but I just can’t so I decided to wake her up.

I know my life is in danger because of what I am doing but I still believe that she will not try to hurt me nor kill me because many people surround us now.

Despite my persuasion to wake her up, she remained asleep. Okay, I failed. I will just whisper words directly to her ears.

"Aliyah, I love you," I whispered.

She immediately removed the pillow which she uses to cover her face.

“What are you trying to do Ruzzel? Do you want me to send you out of this bus?”

I pouted as an answer. Admitting that I am pouting more these past few days because I think it is cute hahaha hahaha.

“Stop pouting. You look like a dog.” then I frowned because of what she says. I think Aliyah will not compliment me for the rest of her life.

“Stop making some noise or else I will surely punch you!” Aliyah added then she covered her face with a pillow again.

Huhuhuhuhu what to do? I am so bored. Should I try talking to the birds again? I bet that is more interesting but surely I will make a noise when I talk to the birds. I left no choice. I have to force myself to sleep.

After a long journey… .. we also arrived at our destination at last.

"GUYS WE ARE HERE !!!!!!!!!" Aliyah's aunt shouted.

“Your mouth is so big, stop shouting.” I heard Aliyah said. That made me laugh but no one wants to pay attention to me. So okay, I will just laugh alone.

By the way… we were only be staying here for two days.

When we got out of the bus, we were immediately led to Nicolas’ rest house. Yes, we will be staying at Nicolas’ rest house. The family of Aliyah owns this place.

I carried both I and Aliyah’s luggage. Aunt told us some instructions and lead us to our designated rooms. Two people will be occupying one room. Boys were separated from girls. And unfortunately, Lewis is my roommate. Can I afford to stay in one room together with him? No, maybe I will just roam around and just go to the room when I am about to sleep.

I went first to Aliyah’s room to deliver her luggage while Tatsi did the same thing to Joana. So obviously, he is on the stage of courting Joana.

As soon as we have entered Aliyah and Joana’s room, yes they were roommates. Aliyah immediately ran to the sink to vomit. We followed her. I am touching her back.

“A-are you okay?” I asked my worried boyfriend here.

She just nodded.

"You're pregnant? Congrats Aliyah and Ruzzel!!!” That was Tatsi who was very cheerful cheering.

Aliyah just gave Tatsi a death glare. I am now worried for Tatsi’s life hahaha hahaha.

"What happened?" asked Joana. They are now sitting on the couch.

"I just got dizzy from the trip," Aliyah answered.

Oh wait, is it the reason why she just chooses to sleep?

“I thought you were pregnant! Hahahaha." that was Tatsi again. He is so brave indeed. How did he manage to tease Aliyah that way? Please teach me boss, hahahahah.

“Try to continue teasing me Tatsi. You will just end up in two things. It's either Joana will reject you or I will punch you hard, you choose.” Aliyah is so serious. That is what I am talking about.

“It is just a joke. I will now zipper my mouth.” Tatsi smiled at Aliyah and then he demonstrated a peace sign.

Tatsi said we will be leaving but I asked first Aliyah if I can now leave their room. She just rolled her eyes and didn’t talk to me.

Look at her, does she even have any sweet bones inside her body?

In the end, I just followed Tatsi. I am now heading to my room... And I was reminded again of my roommate. Good luck self.
