Be Attached. Being Attached

XVII.

D-6 before Jonah's departure back to Hamburg.

D+2 after that kissing incident.

Ali still can feel it. The touch of Jonah's lips on her lips. On her neck, on her chest.

It's still burned her skin. She was flushing by thinking about it. Hell, just by thinking how Jonah's hand and lips roaming her body, she felt hot so sudden.

This is not good.

Ali didn't tell Rizha yet about the kissing incident. She was too afraid to talk to her. She was too afraid about the idea of her with him.

She's afraid of him.

How did a 21 years old grown-ass woman afraid of 19 years old?

And now, it's been 2 days Ali and him stopped talking. All they did now were nodding when they both passing by in the living room or corridor. No talking, simply formal gesture to acknowledge each other presence.

After all this mess, Jonah still kept his promise to cook her foods. When usually they would eat together, now Jonah rather eat first then put the foods for her on the table. No '9 pm chillax time' again where they would watch Netflix at 9 pm until midnight. When Ali arrived home, she would locked herself in her room. 

What about Jonah? He was not better. All he did at home was watching tv and cooking foods. When it's time for Ali to be home, he would locked himself in his room too. He can't face her. Looking at her face just reminded him of how good the kiss they shared two nights before.

Both of them too afraid to approach each other.

Both of them are cowards.
