Haunted Ex
Hope of Heart
A few hours later…
The day has entered the day. The clock on the wall already shows at one time around it. There, in the tavern owned by Shena looks Ryuuto who just finished lunch accompanied by Hana. The two were sitting together on the back porch of the store.
The young man in a metallic blue shirt watched Hana who had already cast a glance from him. He felt funny with Hana's current attitude, as timid to him.
“Until when will you avoid my gaze, Hana?” Ryuuto drank his lemon tea.
Suddenly Hana blushed in embarrassment hearing that, her cheeks blushing made by Ryuuto.
“I want us closer. But if you're like this, what should I do?” Ryuuto asked the girl in the tavern maid uniform.
“Ak-i ...” Hana also looked embarrassed.
“Already, everything will be fine. Maybe my time is not as much as it used to be. But if there is free time, I will meet you,” Ryuuto said again.
“Em, I .. I'm confused, Ryuuto.” Hana finally opened the conversation.
“Bingung?”
“He-em. I'm confused how to do that to you. I feel clumsy once.” Hana was honest.
“Is it because there is no official bond yet between us?” Ryuuto guess.
“Em, the ...” Hannah was nervous again.
“Good. If you want an official bond, I'll give it to you. But earlier I wanted to say something to you,” Ryuuto said again.
“Hana.”
“Ya?”
“I'll hold the editorial office soon. My work hours are getting busy. I work from eight in the morning to eight in the evening. Probably just got home by nine. And maybe I can't always call you every night. Because sometimes I bring work home. But I make sure if the weekend will be here.” Ryuuto.
“You mean saturday?” ask Hana to make sure.
“Hm, yes. Because Sunday I have to get together with the family at home. Maybe we can video call on Sunday. I want my time to be well divided. Do you mind?” ryuuto asked Hana.
Hana smiling. He then looked at Ryuuto while chuckling.
“Looks like you haven't changed, Ryuuto. You're always disciplined with time.” Hana complimented.
“Hm, not really, anyway. I just want my time to be fairly divided with loved ones without neglecting my work. Anyhow the job is our future savings.” Ryuuto smiled.
Sontak Hana was fixated on the thing Ryuuto said. It seems to signal the seriousness of this relationship. It was as if he did not find any words in his mind to respond to Ryuuto's words.
Ryuuto, I hope your feelings are true. I do love you, but I don't want to be just a runaway from Shena. I want your whole heart. Even if it takes time, I'll wait for him.
Hana's love for Ryuuto really doesn't know the word surrender. She waited for Ryuuto to love her. Ryuuto himself was still trying to make peace with his heart.
Hana, I'm sorry if I had to keep you waiting. I need time to move my heart. I hope you'll give me some time. As much as possible I am at peace with myself. If it's round, I don't want to linger anymore. I'll ask you soon. I want us to be free to do anything without worrying about anything.
Ryuuto tries to grab Hana's hand. Then he clasped that hand. Hana also looked surprised by Ryuuto's attitude, his heart pounding not playing. However, he will try to get used to this vibration. The vibe of love that is delayed because time has not yet settled.
