We struggle getting inside the house as he won't let our lips get detached. I unlock the door and he holds me from behind with his lips tracing my nape, his hand moves the strand of my hair to my right shoulder, then he starts devouring my back with small kisses.
As soon as the door opens he pushes me to the couch and locks me under him as we both are panting, trying to catch our breath.
"See? The couch is too small." he says, running his fingers through my hair which fall on my face.
"Then don't move too much." I reply as I begin kissing his lips, his nose, and his cheeks.
He grins as he sinks his face to my neck, nibbling every inch of it. "Tell me I'm better than your ex boyfriend," he says, his lips running wild to the south.
He shifts down to my chest and I gasp, a soft moan escapes me. This whole things stir my entire stomach upside down, I feel weirdly mental.
Nick has never treated me this way. With him it was all soft and sweet. And he certainly never moved further than below my jawline.
In the middle of everything, my phone has to ring. My sister is calling me.
"Halo mak?" gue mengangkatnya dan mendorong Brian agar dia bangkit dari posisinya di atas gue. Kami sama-sama duduk, mencoba menata napas yang masih memburu.
"Lo nggak lupa dateng ke Desti kan?" tanyanya.
"Iya, ini baru aja nyampe rumah."
"Sama siapa?" gue tau dari nadanya, dia sebenernya cuma mau memastikan bahwa dugannya benar.
"Sama Brian." jawab gue tanpa basa-basi. Di samping gue Brian cuma menatap gue dengan mata yang melebar, nggak nyangka kalo gue bakal langsung jujur sama Indira.
"Udah pulang dia?" udah kayak interogasi aja nih lama-lama.
"Baru aja masuk rumah, mak. Ini masih duduk di ruang tamu." jawab gue.
Brian mengambil alih hape dari genggaman gue.
"Gimana KL? Nggak hujan kan?" ucapnya pada Indira."I know.. Iya, iya. Gue pulang sekarang. Don't skip dinner." Brian menutup telepon dan menyerahkannya kembali ke gue.
"Gimana?" gue khawatir dia malah kena semprot.
"Nothing to worry about. Gue balik ya? Udah disuruh pulang." katanya sambil berdiri.
"Nurut banget sih sama Indira." gue cemberut sambil masih memegangi jasnya agar dia duduk kembali.
"Her sense is sharper than sharks. Besides, I already said yes when she told me to go home. No more breaking promises." dia merapikan bajunya dan kembali duduk untuk mengecup dahi gue.
"We gotta prove that we can keep our words. She's important for both of us, right?" tanyanya lagi.
I nod in complete agreement.

3 hari kemudian Jakarta sudah kembali hidup. Semua orang sudah kembali dari liburan tahun baru, dan gue udah mulai masuk kerja seperti biasa. Rumah juga sudah mulai terasa hidup karena Indira pulang kemarin.
Di kantor semua orang sibuk memamerkan liburan tahun barunya sementara gue cuma cengo mendengarkan.
Ketika istirahat makan siang, gue ketemuan sama Ucup di foodcourt sebuah mall yang letaknya di tengah-tengah kantor kami berdua yang kebetulan berjarak hanya beberapa blok.
"Ciyeee sumringah pacarnya baruuuu" sambutnya dengan gengges ketika gue sampai di tempatnya duduk.
"Biang gosip! Siapa yang ngasih tau?" gue jitak kepalanya dengan penuh kasih sayang.
