FORBEARANCE [Afgan & Rossa]

Chapter 5: Trauma

Afgan, Ocha, Cakra, Khan and Miller walk back to the class. Afgan hold Ocha's shoulder to make her calm. When they arrive infront of the class, everyone is just looking at them, asking what happened. They ignored and sit at their own place.

-

"Cha, you okay?", asks Melly. "I don't know.. ", replies Ocha with slow voice, cause she still shocked for what just happened.

When the teacher of history is teaching, Ocha couldn't even focus, she just keep staring on her book. "Ocha, if you think you want to go back home, you can. I allow", says the teacher. "Can I send her back, teacher? Cause her dad is not around right now. I will ask notes from my friends", says Afgan. "Sure, take care both of you", says the teacher.

While both of them in the car, Afgan asks "Cha, you look tired. Sleep on my shoulder, I will wake you up when we arrive soon". Ocha nodded, straightly sleep on Afgan's shoulder.

As they arrived, Ocha's parent is having their lunch. "Cha, why are you crying, why are you back from school way too early?", asks Ocha's mother. Ocha couldn't answer, she just straightly hug her her. Coincidence, Ocha's dad is at home as he got something to do.

"Are you the one who makes her cry?!", asks Ocha's father angrily. Afgan shocked. "No dad, not him. He saved my life", says Ocha. "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm being so strict because Cha is the only one my beloved daughter", says Ocha's father. "Ah, it's okay, uncle", replies Afgan. "Lets sit outside and have some coffee", says Ocha's father and straightly bring Afgan to the coffee table outside the house.

"What is your name?", asks Ocha's father. "My name is Afgan, dad. Eh eh sorry, uncle", replies Afgan. "Haha, nice. Just call me dad also can because i can feel you will be my son-in-law",says Ocha's father. Afgan laughed. "So, what the actual had happened? ", asks Ocha's father to Afgan. "Here is the actual things that happened..." says Afgan and start to tell all of the things that happened.

"Thank you, Afgan. Thank you! I don't know how to repay your kindness and your bravery", says Ocha's father. "It's okay, err.., dad. It's my responsibility to take care of her", says Afgan. "Be a good man for him, Afgan. I give all you all my trust", says Ocha's father while holding Afgan's shoulder.

They both talk and talk, makes their bonds closer. Ocha silently flashed her room curtains and look outside. She smiled as she feels so happy to look Afgan getting near with her family. Afgan accidentally look at Ocha's room window. Afgan smile at Ocha so do Ocha.
