"The Ugliness of a handsome Legend"

Chapter 5

While my dad and sisters leave because of company, I got to understand what's the meaning behind Sister Aina said.
In order to make me safe I have to be married.

I took my cellphone and call Dad. He must had been in a daze about earlier, I have to make it out for him.

"Kriingg!"

"Oh! Sprill,my daughter is there a problem?"

"About the arranged marriage earlier--"

"I know ,I understand... you don't have to force yourself."

"I... agree!" It took me long time before saying these two words.

Dad seems speechless, the way he didn't answer at the phone in a second, I got to think. Did I do the right thing?

"Sprill, you really are sure don't you?? Don't break your promise? Okay?"

"Wait! Who's my Husband then."

"For now... it will be steady. So don't worry, I will not marry you off to just someone."

"Okay Dad. Goodnight."

I giggled lightly, just imagining my father being happy right now is making me happy too.
I wore balloon skirt with my t-shirt tucked inside it, wearing a black boots.

"Hmm..as usual I'm really am pretty, let's go and see Resa."

I drove my car all the way to Resa's house. I put my shades and saw an alluring house.
*Tok!Tok!Tok!*

The sound of heels echoed throughout the dining room... Resa looked back and smile.
"Sprill, you're late again."

"Sorry Madam."

I chuckled lightly as I said my words. Maids gave us a Hawaian Loco Moco. I used my knife to cut it all in pieces. I'm only focused into the food in front of me.

•°♣♣°•

Minutes passed then I'm done. I used handkerchief to wiped my mouth.

"So, Resa what's the good news?" I asked looking at her.

Resa blushed like a ripened tomato. This is the first time I saw her blushed like this. Of course I'm used in her blushing things but this time is very different.

"I have a new boyfriend."

'Yeah, stop boasting about your endless relationships with guys, could you?'

"Instantly speaking, what does that has anything to do with us? To become happy for you, having boyfriend when us don't have?!" Ashley said seemingly annoyed.

'You hit the enemy Ashley!!"

"No... I'm not boasting around... I felt so happy to have him, it's really an unimaginary scene which I would never forget in my whole life."

"Eyyy, stop now and tell us, who is the guy?"

Resa stared at me then giggled.

"It's... k-ken-kenshi." She coyly said.

"WHATTTTTT!!!!!!!!"

'That's not good news self, that's torment from your friend! Arghh!! Why is this happening to me? First the arranged marriage then now... WHATTTT!!!"

"Don't make me scream..when, why, and how?"

"One question at a time. When... it's been five months now. Why, cause we like each other.. How, I told him I like him but unexpecteud he said he likes me too!!"

After Resa told everything to Ashley I still can't process everything she had said... Kenshi and Resa in a relationshiop.. why?!!!

"Why? You're startled right? Kenshi being in my side. My longing crush finally became mine. Yeheyy!!!

Resa smiled to me looking very lovely enough to make Kenshi fall in love with her.

'And who I am to break their longing relationship? I AM JUST NOBODY! Resa... it's true you don't know how much I like Kenshi, but can you be more mercy?'

I looked at Resa... I wanted to cry but lack of tears, I wanted to tell how much I like Kenshi but my throat became dry suddenly..

" Resa...."

I said almost whispering...

"Hmm?"

'I CAN'T !!!"

"Ahh....Dad needs me urgently..Bye." I hurriedly said.

As I left, my tears fell down. I ran fastly as I could not wanting them to hear my cry. When I got out, I cried and cried until my eyes were swollen. I drove my car while crying, I called my boy bestfriend.

"Oh? Why?"

*Sniff*sniff*

"Are you perhaps crying?"

A continuous question voiced through the cellphone.

*Sniff*sniff*

"I'm very, very, really, really sad... can you comfort me?"

The voice sighed and ended the call.
I stopped in somewhere like park. I can't stop crying even I persuaded myself to stop. When suddenly someone put me to an embrace. I put my head on his chest and then again, I began crying.

After buckets of tears, I wiped my eyes and looked at the person beside me.
I felt sorry for welcoming him in a sad way.

"Kai, you really are my friend. Thank you."

"Oh? Where's your other friends? I thought you have one... where is she?"

I gulp and deeply closed my eyes.

"I think they betrayed me. It is true that they knew nothing about my feelings for Kenshi, however, now I can't, I can't ease the pain I am feeling. My heart aches and I don't know how to calm myself.

I sniffed again, remembering what Resa said.

"What did they do to my precious friend? Did they bully you, beat you? Anything?"

I didn't told anyone except my Sisters Zena and Aina. Either Ashley, nor Resa and even my Dad and my friend - Kai.

"It started when we practice our dance for someone's wedding, even since then, I didn't knew that my friend Ashley had this cousin named Kenshi. I saw him when I'm practicing, even now and then I like him... the feeling I felt when I saw him unexpectedly were very great. Back then, the moment I met him, my friend Resa told me that she likes him very much too.

I don't want her to get hurt so I hid my feelings... I didn't knew it would result like this... Resa and Kenshi.. now TO.GE.THER."

Kai hugged me again tightly. A comfort hug. He's my friend whose there when needed...just text or call him he will come.
