"I have to be polite, I have to control my anger, or else she will distance herself from me," Linux sighed, reminding himself. He stood in front of Zaina's house, waiting to pick her up so they could head to the cruise ship.
He waited patiently until Zaina finally arrived. "I'm sorry for being late, it’s just—" she began, but before she could finish, he interrupted her softly, "It’s fine, you can settle down." His voice was calm, almost delicate.
Zaina was taken aback by his sudden change in behavior. She hesitated for a moment but then settled into the passenger seat beside him.
He glanced at her. "You look beautiful," he said, leaning closer.
Her heart started to race as he moved closer to her face. She closed her eyes tightly, feeling her pulse quicken. He smiled at her reaction and gently put on her seatbelt before returning to his seat.
She opened her eyes, feeling embarrassed, and cleared her throat.
He smiled even more.
"What are you smiling at?" she asked, huffing a little.
"Nothing. I’ll start driving. We need to pick up your best friend and her boss," he said, his tone cheerful.
"As if they aren’t your friends too," she replied, rolling her eyes.
"I’m joking," he said, laughing.
They drove smoothly and soon picked up Rehza and Mania.
Once they were on the cruise, however, they encountered a problem.
They had booked two rooms: one for the boys and the other for the girls. But the girls' room was far from the room where Mania and Linux were staying. Worse, all the neighboring rooms to the girls’ were occupied by groups of men, and the entire lobby was filled with male guests.
While the girls didn’t seem too bothered, the boys certainly were.
"Let’s do this: we’ll book another room next to ours," Mania suggested, but the cruise management informed them that all rooms were fully booked, leaving them with no other options.
"Fine, then I’ll switch places with Rehza," Linux said.
The girls protested, but Mania insisted. "The girls are our responsibility, and we can’t risk anything happening to them. You have to agree."
"But how can we stay like this—" Rehza began, sighing.
"Do you want us to sleep on the floor of your room?" Mania asked, growing frustrated.
"Actually, not a bad idea," Zaina quipped with a smile.
"For real?" Rehza replied, a bit incredulously.
"No, we wouldn’t do that," Linux said firmly. "Try to understand, you two, or we’ll have to cancel the trip."
Left with no other option, the girls reluctantly agreed to the arrangement.
