Drive

|Kengkla|

I was watching Techno how he run with the ball while trying to avoid other players in the field. He's still glowing even though he's a little far from where me and Nic were standing.

"I'm starting to hate you, you know?"

"Hmm?"

"Really, Kla. You're making me hate you."

I glanced at his direction. He's watching me. I can't tell if he's mad or not.

"Explain."

He sighed. "Why do we need to watch him here? May I remind you that this is our third time of visiting him in a span of two weeks! That's not normal, Kla."

"It's not like we're here every day, why fret?"

He stood up and blocked my view. I looked up to him and showed him that he's starting to annoys me.

"They will think that we're weird. Well, they will not bad about me since I'm his brother and that is not the case for you."

"I don't care about them."

"They will figure it out that you have an agenda."

"I still do not care."

"And they will tell my brother."

He got a point. I know we're kinda weird that we are watching Techno when it is just a practice game but this is the only way that I can see him. He do not stay in their house unless it is 10 in the night. He's always out with his teammates!

"You said you do not like him but you are dragging me here to watch him lose with everyone."

"I don't know." I sighed. "I think I like him but I think I don't. I am the who's more confuse than you so try to be considerate."

I avoided his gaze. I don't want him to catch me lying about my true feelings.

"Maybe you just see him as a challenge?"

I didn't answer. I just shoved him away and continue watching Techno.

He was talking to Type again. My heart tightens at the sight but I tried to ignore it. Damn, why do I need to like someone like him? He's close to everyone in the football team and I don't like it.

I want to tell Nic how jealous I am but I don't want him to take advantage of the idea that I really like his brother. He's been driving my car for almost two weeks now and I think he's in love with my car.

"Hey!"

He didn't answer me when I called him but I know that he's listening. "Do you think there's a chance that Techno will ride my car?"

He stopped using his phone and gave me his full attention. Gotcha.

"There's a lot but why?"

"My parents gave me a new car because they notice that my grades are going down."

He tapped me at my back. I little stronger than usual. "Are you serious?"

"Yes, I want him to be the first one to ride in the shotgun seat-"

"Bastard! I'm talking about the car!"

I laughed a little. Why I always think about Techno?

"Yes."

"How I wish my parents will give me extra allowance when my grades fall down. They're cutting it every time my grades change."

I didn't answer him. He talked about how unfair life is and why I receive this and that.

"So, any idea, Nic?"

His mood changed. He became serious. Back to business, huh?

"Tell me your cards."

"You tell me what card I will throw."

"Damn lucky you are, huh?"

I saw Techno walking towards our direction. I watched him walking like someone in the advertisement, he's shining among all the people around us. He's making me nervous again and again I think I'm familiar with the fast beating of my heart, the dizziness, and the way my heart tightens with his smile.

"Your car."

"That one?" I asked. I think he's asking for too much! Hell, my Mom will not like the idea if I tell her I give it to a friend.

"Uhm, yes."

I was about to say no when Techno talked to me while walking to where I was seating.

"Kengkla! I'm glad you're here!"

Oh hell. Forget everything. He just said that he's glad I came here. HE IS FCKING GLAD I AM HERE.

"Deal."

I was nervous. I don't know why waiting outside Nic and Techno's house is a nerve-wrecking as right now.

Nic texted me last night to pick up his brother at 7 in the morning. I don't know if it's only Techno or also with Nic, I don't care anymore.

I called his phone for some information but he's not picking up my call.

When I saw Techno came out from the front door I immediately went outside my car and waited for his arrival.

With his 'still-damp' hair, he's walking like a model. Am I too whipped? I don't know. Everything about him looks perfect to me.

"Good morning!"

"Good morning too, P'." I cleared my throat cause I think I was too nervous my voice was hoarse and that's not cool. "Uh, where's Nic?"

"Oh, he's sick."

"Ah. Okay." I went to the passenger seat and opened the door for him. "Let's go now so you'll not be late."

"Huh?" he looked puzzled. "Wait. Did Technic told you that my scooter broke?"

So. That's what happened. I didn't have any idea how Nic did that. Why not inform me, Nic?

"Yes. He told me to drop you to your school."

When he suddenly laughed I forgot how to breath. How can he do that? Laughed beautifully when he's a man? Is that even possible?

"No need, Kengkla. I can go to my class without being a bother to you."

"But---"

"Really. Your car looks good by the way. I'll go now."

I was shocked with how he rejected my offer. I was hurt. He do not want to be with me?

I don't know what possess me when I grabbed his hand and made him face me again. He's puzzled with my action. His gazes went down to where I was holding him.

I want to remove my hand but the feeling of touching his wrist, touching his skin made my heart hammered against my ribs. The intensity is too much.

"I am here now. Why not come with me?"

"Uh, because you also have class. You need to go to school too."

"I can manage. Let me drive you to the university, please?"
