2700 Words
ANGEL'S POV SCREAMS and cheers to the guests who are enjoying what Trixie said. ❝Let's start the game❞ signaled and gave life to the impatient spirit of the guests. From where she was standing, she saw Trixie leaning on the table, she was a bit small so maybe she thought of leaning on the table to increase her height and be seen by everyone. She jumped up and down on the table, luckily the table was able to handle her and didn't notice her opening skirt while she was jumping up and down with joy, she didn't care even if other male guests peeked at her. All it wanted to do was scream, as it jumped up and down in joy. ❝Are you ready?❞ it shouted. It gave its full vigor to the shouting and accompanied it with the shouting of more and more visitors. They don't care about the people they disturb in that condominium, and they also don't care if people sleep in that condominium, their only concern is to have fun. ❝So, let's start the game,❞ it starts. ❝In this game five girls and five boys will be needed, it's like a couples game. It's a five teams, girls and boys in tandem. The last team is the buyer and I already choose Daemon and Angel in a last team or should I say couple.❞ Trixie teaching the game to the guests. Angel could see in her silly smile that she was planning something silly. What is this girl is planning? ❝We are not a couple,❞ she corrected what her friend said. Trixie slowly got off the table, she came to her and she grabbed her shoulder. ❝Yes! I said couple but did I say a real couple?❞ it added. Well, fine I'm stupid , it's really hard to be S-T-U-P-I-D. Angel couldn't speak, she was silent because she was a little embarrassed there because first of all everything is just a game, in other words nothing personal just a game. And the game was never meant to be taken seriously, but she seemed to have forgotten that. ❝It's a card game,❞ Daemon suddenly appeared next to her and spoke. Oh Mushroom! She didn't realize that Daem was right next to her, maybe because her brain was occupied with the speaker in the middle of the table. Why? Sometimes we don't notice what's next to us? Maybe because we look far away, that's why we often don't see the person next to us because you're already far away by the time our thoughts reach. Daem frowned at what Daem told him, maybe he wasn't familiar with that game. ❝Cards?, what's that we're going to play tong-it?, Gambling?❞ she asked in surprise. What she knows about playing cards in English is so called ❛Card,❜ is in gambling games and casinos. What exactly are they going to do with the Cards? Last time she checked, what she went to was a Night Party and not a Casino? Cards only used for gambling in Casinos. ❝Just trust me,❞ it ordered. He looked into her eyes, and because of that, her heart beat faster. I already trust you in the very first beginning that we've met. He didn't need to ask and work for her trust anymore because the first time their eyes met, when she met him. She knew in hetself that she had given her trust on him. She just felt his hands take her hand and held her so tightly as if he didn't want to let go. She couldn't take his eyes off hom. Of all the things she doesn't like are those who are strict, suffocating but she doesn't understand herself. Why? She feels different now, she didn't think she would like his hands tightly holding her. Why do I like the things I don't like when it comes to you? What magic do you have? What magic did you use on me? Why am I like this when it comes to you? In this world there is no magic, it's just a fiction that we want to believe but what we don't notice and think about is the mystery of love. Mystery is not maybe we don't see but we feel. It can do a lot that you never thought possible. Just like the things we can do in the name of love. He pulled her towards the middle and she just followed her feet to it. She observed from the beginning the column at the first man. Second female, third male. Fourth female, fifth male. Sixth girl, seventh boy. Eighth girl, Daem followed in ninth while she was tenth. They were facing each other but he turned his back to her so her back was facing him like it was nice to lean on. Angel couldn't understand herself because when he turned back she suddenly felt sad. Angel could only see his handsome face, a sudden smile on his lips caused by the strange pleasure of his feelings. Even sometimes she has a beautiful dream about him that when she wakes up her moods become good and her morning becomes beautiful. That was the effect on her when it comes to Daemon Gabrielle Santiago, an effect she didn't know why? And she didn't intend to find out either. Just thinking about this young man makes her heart skip a beat, it makes her smile without realizing it. Maybe this is the right time for me to stop denying this little crazy thing I felt for you. I think this is the right time for me to admit that maybe I fell for you at the very beginning when our eyes met. I have to admit and stopped on denying, what I felt for you but, I should stop these feelings for you right now, cause I know that will only get hurt at the end of the day. My world is messed up right now and I know that if I don't stop, stop the strange feelings I have for you, my world will be even more messed up, if I ever get hurt again. Perhaps she had to lead fate this time. Cause love is complicated. And her life is already complicated, in her complicated world she almost fell. What if it was added to what they call ❛Love is Complicated,❜? She thinks she can't do it anymore because the accident in her life is still painful, if she gets hurt again because of love. Angel still has a problem in her life, she knows how to feel sorry for herself because she can no longer handle what they call 'Love Problem'. I'm content being just your friend. Now that her world is in chaos, she needs a friend to lean on and not a lover. ❝Ready! get set go,❞ signals that the game has begun. Angel didn't know why she was nervous, nervous to win but happy to win with Daem who was her friend. Nervous to lose, her friend Daem sympathizes with the loss. Win, lose with you I am very happy. Because I love you. She tried to scold herself for something that her mind tried to remind her that she shouldn't. Whereas in the front is, the man put a card on his lips and it was quickly passed through the lip with a blocked card. The second, a woman, faced the man who was just behind her earlier and slowly passed the card through the card-blocked lip. It just continued like that, until the card came to Daem's lips. Angel feels strange, her heart is beating fast as if it wants to escape from her chest. When she faced it, her dark world brightened, it gave light to the world indeed. As it slowly approached her, she stood still as if she was nailed to where she was standing and could not move. She couldn't move her whole body, and she didn't know, Why? That's how her body reacted to its simple approach. Especially when the card slid to his lips causing the card to fall from his lips but he continued to approach her. Daem slowly pressed his red lips to her waiting lips, ready only for his lips. At that moment, their lips met and an electric voltage surged through his entire body. Her heart seems to be beating abnormally. The simple kiss became strange, so passionate that they didn't care about the visitors whose eyes were only focused on them. It covered her lips, she had no experience in kissing and she didn't know how to return. The only thing she did was accompany the wave of his lips. She was almost gasping for breath when she broke their kiss because he was so passionate that she could hardly breathe while kissing her. Her bottom lip was still tasting hid sweet lips, and because of that she was like crazy holding back a smile. Her body and heart reacted differently when he kissed her. She won't understand that, even though her heart already knows the truth but her mind doesn't want to believe it. His my first touch. As soon as his hands touched hers, a strange electricity flowed through her body. His my first kiss. His kiss caused a strange pleasure in her chest, which made her heart beat faster. They say the first ones are the ones we can't forget---First touch---even if it's just a simple touch, it's hard to forget, every time his skin is applied to her hand, it's as if it gives a strange warmth to her cold heart. First kiss---even if it was intentional, accidental, or a game, it's still hard to forget because it was the first kiss that his heart wished would be the last. Everything first is memorable, even if it's just a game for them. Because the game that they don't take seriously, when it comes to her is a lot of happiness and an unforgettable event in her life even if it's just a game for everyone. Game is part of our life's, games make us happy even just a few minutes, sometimes we didn't think it as a game. And that was her biggest mistake in her life, to think that a game was real. ❝I'm sorry!❞ he apologized waking up from her delusion. When she heard his apologize, the smiles caused by excessive happiness gradually disappeared, replaced by a fake smile caused by emotional pain. Even if we are hurt, we will still smile, even if it is difficult, we have no choice, we have to accept the truth. I through we're in the same bottle. Angel thought that they were both the same with every heartbeat and that they were both cowards when it came to strange feelings. She thought their hearts were shot by Cupid, which would connect this world but it turned out that only her heart was shot because it was removed. She thought they had the same feelings but it turns out that he only treats her as a friend that sometimes she becomes delusional that she gives malice to what he does for her. Now, I know, I'm only stupid one who fell in game of love. And now I also know I'm just the only one that fell. Falling without someone to catch is the most painful of all. I lost! Because she thought the game was becoming real but she only thought it was. In the mistaken belief that there are many to hurt, which gives a wound to our heart that causes great pain in the emotions. Angel went straight to the wash room to catch her breath because her chest was tight as if she wanted to cry but she didn't want to show him, her tears of frustration with her feelings for him. When she opened the door of the washroom she stopped when she caught a woman there, one of Daem's guests. It was this woman that she noticed that Daem avoided, because every time she approached, Daem avoided. It's like they were friends before but things have changed between the two. She doesn't know what the problem is with Daem and this girl, she doesn't like to interfere but when it comes to Daem, she wants to know all the things. Why does she want to know about Daem? She already admits that she's falling, when we like someone we also want to know about it no matter what we do to stop ourselves we can't stop and dictate to stop, stop our love that has just started. So there is a Stalker, who secretly investigates the person they like because they want to get to know the person they like better. While Angel was looking in the mirror, a woman suddenly caught her attention when the woman spoke while she was still looking in the mirror, but the woman was looking at the image of her mirror. ❝You love him?❞ she asked referring to Daem, she stopped and looked in her direction. ❝What are you trying to say?❞ she asked, she also turned in her direction and now they are facing each other. ❝Admit it,❞it ordered, that one looks like gossip. Why do you care if I love him? I won't tell you how, because honestly I don't know either. Her eyes couldn't take her eyes off her gaze as if she was reading her feelings. ❝It's not your business,❞ she said flatly, she smiled at the woman. ❝Maybe but, I saw that our destiny to him is just the same.❞ she saw sadness in the woman's eyes as she told her. Same, What does she mean? The stares it gave her seemed to be giving a warning. ❝Don't let him see the love on your eyes that is shining just for him, don't let him hear the reaction of his touch on your heartbeat. And the most important he always said to himself that what he saw on your eyes, the beat he heard on your heart meant nothing to you. Don't let him- now that you love him cause if you do❞ her advice, she witnessed her tears falling in her eyes full of regret. ❝Better prepared on losing him, and he can be gone on your life.❞ the woman told her bitterly. The woman wiped the tears of regret from her eyes with a tissue. ❝And bye the way I'm Briggette,❞ Introducing herself. ❝If you don't want to lose him the way I do, you better be contented being just a friend at least he's still with you.❞ added this advice to her before, the woman named Briggette turned her back on her and it came out of the washroom. At the second time, she's scared for losing someone she loves and someone important in her life, it's enough for her to be a friend who will always be with her. She's ready to forget her feelings for him just to save their friendship, just to be with him but it's not easy to forget someone like this. If she can't forget it, she's ready to hide her feelings in her heart, she'll just accept that it's just in the air she can say the word I love you. Angel faced the mirror again, staring at her own image. She tried to draw a fake smile on her lips even though the tears of love that she felt were falling little by little, knowing that she couldn't feel the relief by shouting to the world the word that she loved him because she also had in her heart the fear that when she admits her true feelings for him, she may lose him, and above all, he may disappear like a bubble from her life. She's afraid that---How quickly it came into her life, She can't handle it disappearing in her life as quickly as it gave it color.
