The Elbow of Love Willing Ring
019 - Can I Date?

Viona heaved a heavy sigh as she stood in front of the steps of the stairs with a narrow and circular path lighting dimly. It felt like he had just come down the stairs this morning with a heightened feeling of annoyance. And the night had made him have to go back to that place again. Why does time seem to spin so fast?

Viona glared at him as she passed Arun who had already arrived at the door and turned the key child.

The two entered the house without saying a word. The effect of their argument this morning is still felt. Viona could not easily forget Arun who snapped at her for accidentally answering a phone from her lover.

Viona enters the bathroom but Arun gets in the way.

"I'm gonna take a shower!" lamented Viona.

"Me first!" sahut Arun's.

"Ck!" Viona clucked as she glared back at the man.

Arun reached into his pants pocket, took out a coin."Look, we're voting!" 

"No! You must have cheated like last night! I pick a number, and you rotate your hand so quickly that a picture can appear!" viona protests.

"What?! You're accusing me of cheating?!" Arun flabbergasted.

An annoyed expression was still painted on Viona's face, she snorted with a huff, prompting Arun not to block her way towards the bathroom.

"Don't talk to me! I don't want to talk to you!" threaten Viona before closing the bathroom door.

"Huh! Who wants to talk to you?!" grouse Arun.

...*****...

Viona had finished her bath, she circulated the gaze throughout the narrow space. It felt safe enough for him to get out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around his chest, he sneaked to pick up his suitcase which he kept under the bed.

He did not bring a change of clothes before entering the bathroom because of the rush to fight over the bathroom with Arun.

Since the man seemed to be non-existent and went nowhere, Viona felt more free to wear clothes without having to enter the cramped bathroom. He immediately put on his underwear and chose a clean change of clothes to sleep on.

Ccleks...

Door opens. 

Viona is aghast at the figure of Arun standing in the doorway and finds him wearing only underwear.

"Yeah!!!" screams Viona.

He grabbed a towel to cover his body.

"Hey! It's noisy!" snapped Arun.

"Don't look at me!" exciting Viona.

"Hey! I'm not a dog with an interest in bones like you!" cibir Arun's.

"What-what?!" 

Viona was flabbergasted and completely goiter with Arun's cuckoo attitude that looked relaxed entering the house. The man even acted as if Viona was a creature without a being.

"Why are you even dumb? Get your clothes on, you wanna catch a cold?"

Viona is really upset, she quickly wears a loose T-shirt and pants while Arun is in a position to back her up. The man was really lowering his pride.

"Hey! Sutopo, if I'm just a bone, what if you just call your girlfriend, then see what her reaction is like when this bone is doing a strip show in front of you? Will it have a significant impact or not?" challenge Viona.

Arun squinted his eyes.

"Huh! You're still so scared of your lover but your words are so arrogant and condescending!" viona hatch.

"Hey! Why did you bring my lover?" 

Not yet had their debate continued, Arun smart device reads.

"Shh!" hisses.

Viona immediately understood who was calling until the man looked like a buffalo shuffled by his nose.

"Dear, I just got home" said Arun.

Viona harrumphed, choosing to wear earphones, listening to music while lying on the bed.

He went back to listening to the song that was playing at the sandwich shop. Lunch with a man who is adored is certainly the most historic thing in his life. Well, even though Viona had to swallow her bitterness rejected, yet at least being able to have lunch with the man was certainly a sweet memory.

Viona directed her gaze towards the man who was currently still monologuing on the balcony.

He remembered when the man refused. Not once twice, Arun gets bored and begs Viona to stop liking him.

Where did that fighting spirit go, Viona? Inner Viona.

You just got rejected once by Mas Alan! That's nothing compared to when you were rejected by Sutopo! Viona's inner heart was turbulent.

Viona looked back at Arun who was currently smiling happily with a smart device attached to his left ear. The man even laughed, his eyes sparkling with excitement. Flowers bloomed around the man.

Such is the person who falls in love when he hears the voice of the person he loves. Especially if they met, it was definitely a world as if it belonged to the two of them.

Viona was envious. He also wants to feel the feeling when his love is linked. Not just clapping one hand.

Arun hangs up the phone, he's done talking to his girlfriend. But he was really disturbed because throughout the conversation, the woman continued to glare cynically at him.

"What's wrong? Why look at me like that? Is there a problem?" ask Arun.

Viona was still silent as she took off her earphones.

"Oh, yes, I forgot! You won't talk to me!" sindir Arun's.

"Hey, Sutopo, can I date another man even if I'm married to you?"

"Please" replied Arun. "But don't let my grandfather know."

"What-what?!"

Viona was flabbergasted to see Arun who was looking at her skeptically.

"It just feels unfair to me! You even have a lover!" lamented Viona.

"Hey! Do you really not understand? I married you because I told you you were my lover, when obviously we weren't lovers! Then my own lover is currently in a distant place and has not been able to return anytime soon!"

"So, it really doesn't matter, does it?" arun continued.

"Oh, so you're using this long-distance relationship of yours so your grandfather doesn't know?"

Arun nodded without having to speak.

"Let's just say, we've agreed not to interfere with each other's personal affairs. Go ahead if you want to date another guy. Well, that's also if there's a guy who wants to date you. Haha!"

"What-what?!"

Again Viona was flabbergasted that Arun was humbling her again. The man was still laughing until he disappeared behind the bathroom door.

"Huh! You're Sutopo!"

...*****...

"Viona!"

"Mas Alan!"

Viona ran towards the man, and vice versa in a beautiful flower garden. Viona landed directly in the man's arms. His embrace felt very warm and comfortable, as if Mas Alan's embrace was created for Viona.

Viona inhaled deeply the scent of the man's body. What an intoxicating scent that excites her.

"Mas Alan," Viona whined.

"Hmmm.."

"Dude.."

"Hmmm.."

Viona woke up because she felt something strange. Why does this all feel so real?

Plus there was something stiffening, hardening, around his stomach.

Sure enough, when Viona opened her eyes, she found herself in Arun's arms.

"Yeah!"
