24: Butterfly

It's been a week since Sehmat confessed her and he was desperately waiting for her answer but she was ignoring him. She just wanted to avoid him at any cost, she wanted him to forget her for her sister's sake. Sister? Does her sister even know what's going on? Did she even saw the pain on the older's eyes? Nope she didn't.
It was hard for Chaya when he confessed, she wished she could just kiss him right there at the place but she can't....

Her sister who is named Tanu wasn't actually not dumb to notice the changes. She noticed how Chaya ignored the boy she loved when he tried approaching her. She noticed how Sehmat was always trying to be around her but got avoided instead, she saw the pain in his eyes. She was definitely sure that something happened between them after that night when the both was locked in the room. She was jealous, was she? Nope she wasn't because she trusted her sister and she knew both of them are just friends and aren't the type of people who throw themselves on each other.

But something was odd, she was confused..........

Sahil on the other hand was staring at his friend who was spacing out for the whole time. His friend asked him to hang out with him since he was not feeling well, but why? He was not telling his own bestfriend, did he not trust his bestfriend enough to not tell anything? Was he scared? What can be the reason to space out?

"Will you speak?" Sahil suddenly raised his voice a little in annoying as he glared at his broken and emo friend.

"I hate it right here! What's wrong Sehmat? What is bothering you? Will you speak up? Listen Sehmat, if you ain't gonna say nothing than I will be not able to help you.......just.... Just tell me what's your problem?" Sahil exclaimed putting a hand on his shoulder in a comforting manner as he send a small smile.

"She is...she is ignoring me S-Sahil. I don't know what's wrong with her. I-I just confessed her but she—"

"You did WHAT?!  Did you just said you confessed someone? Wow....its something hot and new" Sehmat was cutted off by Sahil exclaiming loudly.

"Yes! I have feeling too" He sighed and continued "it's just doesn't feel good when she choose to ignore me instead of accepting or rejecting me..... It's suffocating"

"She? You mean Chaya right?" Sahil guessed, raising his eyebrow making sure he isn't wrong.

"Hmm!"

"Maybe she just need some time, let her be okay? Trust me she will like you back! Ummm why don't you try to court her eh?" Sahil suggested which Sehmat returned with a confused face but let a bitter laugh out as he looked at him with a bored expression

"Seriously? Do you think she is gonna let me court her when she is LITERALLY ignoring me"

"Why do I think she is hiding something? I mean there is no way someone would dislike you"

"What do you mean about that hiding thing? Why would she hide something from me? I mean we're close friends—"

"Exactly! You both are just friends and I want you to make a move or else or else I am gonna steal her"

"Don't you dare"

The both friends laughed together while drinking their caramel frappechino, it's been a while since they both hung out as they were always busy with their work shits.
They both are like gums that can never be separated, they both knew like just few years ago and they became very bestfriends. But who knew that the friendship will be aparted one day....

Chaya was currently busy with her shoots. She was clearly exhausted and it was clear on her face but she have to finished it since its her job. Being a model it wasn't easy but she was strong enough to manage everything. Everything was messed up but she didn't want anything to harm her career. She was very focused on her work, she was worked hard for her position and finally she was able to proof the world that she is an independent woman.

    It was 8:43 p.m. and she was on her way home, walking at the silent street. She just wanted to rest as soon as she reached home, she walked as fast as she could so that she can reach home but her fate was probably very unlucky that she was being pulled by hand on a nearby alley and was pushed against the wall. She was almost out of breath and just shouted when she was shushed by a familiar voice

"Sshhh! It's me Chaya" Yes, it was Sehmat. Surprisingly he was too close to her face as he exclaimed in his deep husky voice making her shiver.

"What the heck do you want?" She made a fist trying to push him away but he was stronger.

He swiftly moved his right hand and pressed his weight against wall and his left hand placed on her hip slowly caressing it. She looked shocked and it was expected from her as she tried pushing him away but he gripped her waist tighter. She wasn't expecting something like this, Shep can clearly feel his breath on her face since he was close. Her heart beat almost stopped as she tried catching her breath, she gulped down when she noticed him leaning close, their lips slightly brushing against each other.

"Why are you ignoring me Chaya? It's not good for my heart" He said deeply and looked at her shining eyes. He could not clearly see her but he knew she is blushing like a tomato and he liked to make her feel the unknown feeling in her stomach.

"Sehmat! I-its getting la-late, we-we should go" She cursed herself in her mind for stuttering but she couldn't deny the butterflies in her stomach was clearly grambling, which made her blush in embarrassment when he heard him chuckle in his deep voice.

"Well, let's go but not at home"

"What do you mean?"
