He's The Unaffordable
Chapter 129 - Kasmaran

This is not how I imagined the moment we kissed for the first time. Not by stealing it, without his knowledge. But I didn't have time to think much less about considering it well before doing so. I feel like I should kiss her here right now.

Seeing Luca show himself as if he was the master of this house encouraged me to do something to make his arrogant smile disappear. If our relationship was only pretending to Hadi, I was serious with him. So, I kissed him to prove my sincerity.

I know it's not just me who's surprised by my reckless actions. Hadi also felt it, and his eyes were rounded when our gaze met. I just feel like dying. If he doesn't do something, what should I do next?

Hadi who was acting cold was slowly smiling. His eyes were looking at me gently. Sensing her hand caressing my cheek, my heart slowly pounded rapidly. What's he gonna do? When his gaze fell on my lips and his face approached, I closed my eyes.

As soon as his lips touched mine, my blood rippled rapidly from my head to the tips of my fingers and toes. I was grateful that she was hugging me, because my legs suddenly couldn't hold my own weight.

“Clarissa,” whispered Hadi in my ear. “We're just pretending, why are you kissing me here?”

“Because I'm not pretending to be your girlfriend,” I replied honestly.

“Long. You just used me to keep Luca away from you,”.

“When did you hug like this?” charlotte said to interrupt before I could respond to Hadi's accusation. “Come, you can still meet again tomorrow. Grandpa and Grandma were already smiling to themselves. Do you want until all the waiters watch just stop?”

“Enter. I'll call you again once I get home.” Hadi let go of his embrace. I nodded and followed Charlotte into our house.

Grandpa and Grandma smiled meaningfully watching us approach them. I felt my face heat up. Oh, dearGod. What did I do just now? I not only kissed Hadi in front of my sister and a stranger, but also in front of the maid and Grandpa and Grandma.

I just resigned as they teased me until we went into our rooms. I rushed to take a shower and changed clothes, then sat on the bed waiting for Hadi to contact me as he promised. The door to my room was knocked on, I immediately knew who was knocking on it before the door opened. Sure enough, Charlotte smirked cunningly and immediately sat by my side.

“Thank God, I'm on time. He hasn't called you.” He laughed amusedly.

“Charlotte, you can't be here right now. Did I ever bother you when I was alone with Wyatt?” my protest.

“It's your own fault. I never mind you chatting with us,” he said casually. “Why don't you want me here. You just dared to kiss her in front of everyone. Not just a regular kiss, but in a special place.” He patted his lips with his index finger. I felt my face heat up, remembering our kiss.

“Oh, Lord.” I covered my face with both hands. “I don't know what prompted me to do that earlier. Grandpa and Grandma saw it.”

“You love Hadi, that's natural. Wyatt and I didn't, because we wanted to wait. Hadi replied to your kiss, that means he doesn't mind!” Charlotte squealed happily. “Dira was very happy when I gave her.”

“Charlotte! Why did you tell him? All his family will know about this incident. How are you??” panicked kataku.

“Quickly or later, everyone will know it too. If not from me, it must be from Wyatt, Grandpa , or Grandma,” he said in self-defense. I groaned slowly.“You just calm down. Your plan will definitely work. Hadi will not end your pretend relationship, but rather invite you to have a more serious relationship.”

“We don't know about it yet. It could be on Saturday, Luca returned to America and Hadi did not want to continue our relationship.” I sighed sadly.

“If you were a girl with an average face, I understand this lowly attitude of yours. But you have a beautiful and attractive face, not even confident like this. Clarissa, you ended your relationship, not Hadi. Why are you acting like a person whose love is rejected?” charlotte asked confusedly.

My phone vibrates on the nightstand. My heart immediately thumped tight. I looked towards the giggling Charlotte. I glanced at the door, giving her a signal to leave. But he shook his head stubbornly. I had to let him hear our conversation.

“What did you mean? We're just pretending, which is why I want to be your girlfriend. Are you lying to me?” he said angrily, as soon as I greeted him.

I glanced at Charlotte. If only he wasn't here. As if she understood what I was worried about, she took my headphones that were on top of the nightstand on the other side of the bed and put them on. He connected the cable to his phone.

“I didn't lie to you, Hadi. Yes, I asked you to be a fake girlfriend, but I—” is serious with you. I couldn't finish it, because he cut me off.

“I don't know what game you're playing, but I don't want to get involved. As agreed, once the man gets home, our drama ends. Do you understand?” he said coldly, completely without feeling.

Even though our conversation over the phone didn't end well, I wasn't angry with him. What he did to me is worth it. I've hurt her heart and her great hopes for our relationship. So, it was my turn to repair the relationship that I broke myself.

His mouth could say something else and say every painful sentence to me, but he could not lie through his kiss. He still loves me. Because if he hates me like he used to say, then he won't kiss me like he did last night.

Having taken a shower and preparing to go through the day, I could still feel her lips on mine. Still feeling the sensation that made my whole body tremble. I just found out a kiss can make my body react that way. How about when we get married and sleep together? Does it feel like it's going to be more than this?

Oh, geez. I haven't managed to win her heart back even thinking about marriage. I patted my cheek to stop fantasizing. Hadi is not an easy man to persuade. He was harder than any rock. But I did too, so he was dealing with a person whose nature was similar to his.

“Good morning, Clarissa! Not usually you are late to come to the dining room,” Charlotte's tease. I'd love to throw one of those pillowbuns at him. But seeing the glint of his eyes, I immediately turned my head and almost jumped back.

“Good morning, dear,” greet Hadi with his friendly smile which he once only gave to me.

“Se-good morning,” reply I was nervous. What is he doing here so early? I think he's still mad at me and won't see me today.

“What do you do by just standing there?” reprimand Grandma, break my reverie. “Come, sit. You must be hungry.” I followed and sat down by Hadi's side.

“Try guess why Hadi came so early?” charlotte said she asked me to answer her riddle. But there's not a single answer I have. “Something bad happened when Dira auditioned. So, in order to cheer him up who has to cancel some other auditions, Aunt Zahara invites us to accompany him recuperate in their villa.”

“Hadi came to pick us up to go there with him. Colin, Dira, Adi, and Lily will come with Pak Sakti,”, Wyatt added.

“Tiba-suddenly once. I haven't prepared my clothes,” I said worriedly.

“Take it easy. One of the maids must be packing your clothes right now,” Charlotte said. “I've given a list of any clothes that need to be prepared.” I smiled hearing it. This is a good thing. I'll have plenty of opportunities to talk to Hadi.

“What are you guys talking about?” ask Luca to know. The four of us exchanged looks.

“I invited them to stay at my family's villa. Just for two nights, because on Friday we have to go back. Wyatt and Charlotte will hold their engagement on Saturday,” Hadi replied. “You want to come?”

Luca glanced at me, then looked back at Hadi. “Do you invite me?”

“Iya. If you don't want to, it's okay,” Hadi said casually.

“Of course I want. I have no friends to walk around in this area,” replied Luca quickly. “Thank you for taking me too.”

What did Hadi think? Why would he take Luca to stay at his family villa as well? So it's true that he's still mad at me for the words I said last night?

Meanwhile in a house~

“I'd rather audition than take a vacation. Papa is unfair!” dira protested in annoyance. He walks towards the car with Colin's help.

“Darling, doctors also forbid you to use your feet too often to recover quickly. How can you walk on a catwalk with bruised knees like this? You also can't walk without feeling pain.” Adi opens the door so Colin can help Dira to sit down.

“Then is traveling this way also good for my feet? Papa purposely told us to leave so I wouldn't run away for the audition.” Dira crossed his hands in front of his chest.

Colin sighed softly. “Not only Uncle, I also suspect you will be reckless to audition.”

Dira took a surprised breath. Eyes glazed. “I didn't expect you'd accuse me like that. You said you would always support whatever I would do for my future. Turns out you lied. You prefer to support Papa.”
