So Many Times
TWENTY NINE


...As strong as a man, the woman he loves is his weakness. As weak as a woman, the man she loves is the source of her strength....


...♡♡♡...








I'm standing in front of the door of a minimalist greenhouse, where Alana's been living for almost three months. After booking an Indonesian trip to Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, approximately sixteen hours.


And the trip from Copenhagen to the city of odense is two hours, its okay this paid off already after seeing the face of this woman I miss so much. I love Alana so much, even if I explore the world even if I don't mind meeting this woman.


I took out an RFID card to open the door to this house, don't ask me where I got this from. Because I have a friend named Edwin who can do anything, including making a duplicate of this card.


I exhaled softly and walked towards the second floor which I guessed must have been Alana sleeping. Slowly I opened the door of a room and was right inside sleeping facing the window.


I squat next to Alana staring at this pretty face, I smile kissing her forehead. For God's sake, I never get tired of staring at this face even though for hours, let alone when he's asleep like this, it's so incisive.


I really wanted to ask Alana everything, the reason she left and didn't talk to me. But I'm also tired after a dozen hours' journey, alright, I'll sleep next to alana.


Slowly I climbed up the alana bed and lay beside it, alana was not at all disturbed by my movements. I hugged the alana and inhaled the scent of hair that made me so opiate, and I slowly closed my eyes asleep behind the alana.


Alana POVs


I stared at the canal in front of me, the boat leaning back, the sun was beginning to sink and the lights were lit into the hallmark of the city of Odense, very beautiful and soothing.


...



...


Denmark, your favorite country, even during school holidays our destination is this country and city. Mommy really likes this city because this is where you first meet with papa and in this place, beside the canal papa proposed to you.


The last time my mom and I came to this place was nine years ago, and now it's getting more beautiful. Even I still kept the photos of the two of us while riding the boat, I smiled remembering those times.


Mother used to say, that one day I will come here with a special person who loves you very much and take a boat here. I still remember what Mother said back then, but look now, I came here alone.


Mother.I came alone, who is that special person you mean, I said in my heart. I stared at the beautiful sky, I wanted to stay here. But I have to solve the problem, I can't run away from the problem.


My main goal here is to calm my mind because I need time to myself, besides in this country, especially in this city, I have so many memories with my mother, I want to repeat it again.


I took a leisurely walk to the car to return home after finishing coffee beside the canal. I saw a man giving flowers and a ring to a woman on a boat, it seemed like the man proposed to his lover, very romantic.


The man was like a dareel who always gave me gifts, very sweet. My God, why did I suddenly think of Dareel, no. I shook my head and continued my footsteps.


But...right, I can't deny, I miss dareel. I didn't tell him about my departure and my current whereabouts. Maybe he'll be mad when I get back, but... Ah what cares I just let her get angry.


And yes, I didn't tell ethan either, Nattali said ethan felt guilty for me. No. It's not ethan's fault, I'm leaving because I need time alone, he's completely innocent.

"Non, would you like to make milk? Auntie's already prepared dinner for dinner." Said aunt as I entered the house. "Alright bi, I take a shower first," I replied smiling at the aunt.


"Ah yes non, there was a phone from an unknown number but fitting the aunt lift directly in matiin." Aunt looked at me confused. "Maybe it's wrong to connect, justin." I smiled and walked up the stairs.


I'm going to take a shower and eat and sleep, today was exhausting. Moreover, I suddenly missed the dareel and. and wished the dareel with me to ride the boat on the canal. Gosh, there's no way dareel's here, Alana realize, you might be tired today.

Slowly I opened my eyes, I glanced at the wall clock, ah still very early in the morning. But I have to get up, I want to run in the morning, wait. Whose hands are curled around my waist.


I stared fearfully at this hand, damn it, this hand of a man looks from his muscles. Yes, I remember. Last night I peeled a mango and left a knife in this room, I will take the knife just in case.


Shit, I'm so scared, who's the guy who sleeps hugging me like this. Is he a thief? Or is he the pervert who sneaks into my room? Oh my God. help me.


Slowly I moved down from the bed. "eehm sleep it's still too early, Al." For a moment I was silent, I knew the voice of this man. But there's no way it's him, slowly I pinch the hand that's still coiled in


My waist.


"Al... " Say this man after I pinched his hand, I quickly turned around and... Brakkk.


"Aawww, what's the matter, Al?" Dareel asked in surprise after I reflexively kicked him.


I was speechless staring at the dareel who was complaining of pain, I patted my cheek repeatedly. Am I dreaming? Yesterday night I missed Dareel, but why did I hallucinate this morning.


"Aaaahhh, Shit," I yelled, "Hey, what's up? Are you having a nightmare?" He rubbed my head. I stared at Dareel again and slowly rubbed his jaw, Dareel, Yes this is real.


"I told you to belch, never leave me, Al. Wherever you go, I'll look for you, it's not that easy to get away from me." Dareel kissed my nose.


"No, Im not leaving you. I need time to myself, I just want a moment away from everything, I'm too tired for that." My voice held back the tears that would come out of my eyes.


Dareel touched my chin and smiled at me. "please ask alana, whatever the case and whatever you feel do not ever stay away from me. Come to me, am I not the place for you to share everything?"


"I don't want to make things worse" I turned my eyes to Dareel. "Going like this, it will further complicate things. Is it your intention to repay me like this?" Dareel looked at me sharply.


"Go away, if you come here just to nag." I push back on the dareel. "No, no, I'm just kidding." Dareel. "Hey, alana, my ass still hurts and you kicked me again?" Dareel pushed me slowly.


"Nearly three months, don't you miss me hemm?" Ask Dareel who is now on top of my body, yes this position makes me uncomfortable.


"No, why miss you," I replied trying to get rid of the body of the dareel above me. "Sleep again, I'm still very tired. I have a lot of questions for you and you owe me an explanation, now sleep first." Dareel hugged me again and smirked his head around my neck.
