Later on, Brent has arrived at the Blue Fantasy Forest. Like a flash, he straight away runs toward her. When he arrived there, he saw Lilian already fell. She was fainted and unconscious. He walked over to her and quickly to lift her into his arms.
"Lilian... Lilian...!" He calls her but she still not awake. Then, he was brought here somewhere.
Afterward, Lilian regains consciousness. She slowly opens her eyes and looks around. The place looks a little darker and there only a little light not far from there. She didn't know where she is right now. She slowly gets up and walks forward...
She heard someone was talking outside. She was anxious to think that she might be kidnapped by someone. She could not see the man's face because the place was a little dark. She forces herself to be brave and get out of it as soon as possible.
She slowly started his footsteps closer and her hands slowly reached the doorknob and open it...and suddenly, the door was open from the outside and a man appeared!
''Arghhhh!!! Help!! Help!!'' Lilian screamed as loud as she could for help.
''Lilian! Lilian! It's me! Brent.''
''Brent? Senior Brent!'' She immediately hugs him. She finally feels at ease. She feels relief that was Brent.
''Are you okay?''
''I-I okay...I'm sorry...I thought someone...someone...was kidnapped me.''
''And it turns out to be me, right?'' He smirks.
She grinned. ''Err-uh...where are we now? What happens? I remember that I was waiting there...''
''We actually at someone's house. He helps us to stay here for a while. After all, you have fainted earlier, so I just brought you here first. Anyway, it's still raining outside.''
''Oh, I see...''
''Are you feeling better? Did you still have a fever?'' He suddenly leans closer to her and touched her forehead with his hands. Lilian was startled.
''Err...I-I...I'm fine...''
''No, you haven't fully recovered yet. Your body still feels warm.''
''Senior...I'm fine. I feel better.''
''Come, follow me.'' He casually grabs her hands and brings her with him.
She was in a puzzle. She wondering what he wants to do. Then, he takes out some food from the kitchen. He asks her to take a seat and gives her a bowl of soup.
''Here, eat this soup first while it is still hot.''
Lilian just remains silent and she didn't ask him anything. She obediently follows his word.
When I'm eating, I can feel that he keep looking at me. His gaze makes my heart beating faster again. ''Uhm...are you want to say something to me?''
''No. I just thinking why you so fool.''
''What??''
''Yeah. You so foolish because you want to help others but didn't think about yourself first.''
''What? How dare you say that to me. I know you are my senior, but you!''
He suddenly fed the soup to her mouth and stop her from talking. ''Just eat.''
I just give a glare at him.
Then, while waiting for the rain to stop, both of us were staying there for a moment. Actually, I feel very happy from the bottom of my heart because I can be with someone I love right now. I just hope that this moment will be staying in forever.
I was smiling at myself there while imagining something about us. I chuckling.
''Why are you smiling?''
''Huh? Uh...nothing! Uhm...by the way...can I get to know you better? I mean...yeah, you talk about your family, studies...''
''Why you want to know about that? I don't have any interesting about me.''
''No! I think that's would be interesting.''
''There nothing about me. But...I'm worried that if you know me better...you will fall into me.'' He leans closer to me and whispering.
I slowly swallowing my saliva after hear him saying that. My body was frozen for a moment. I was speechless.
''So, why don't we talk about you? Can you just tell me about yourself?''
''Uh? Me? I-I...I also don't have any special about me. I just a normal person. I just want to finish my study and graduate. I just want my father to be proud of me.''
''I guess he is the lucky father to have you as his daughter. I believe one day you will make him proud. Anyway, it will feel really good to have a family with us.
''You don't have any family? Your father...mother...?''
''No. I don't have anyone.''
''Is that mean, you are orphans?''
''I heard that they say we are orphans when we don't have any parents right? So, it may be kind of like that. I already used to be alone...''
''I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feeling. I was...'' My tears started falling down.
''Hey, are you crying? They're nothing to be sad about. I'm just fine. After all, I already have an adopted family. Stefan family.''
I chuckle. '' What? Anyway, it's good to hear if you have his family to be close with you. It's better rather than be alone.''
''Why? Alone is okay too, right?''
''Yeah, it just okay. But...when we have someone with us, accompany us, it will be happier. We can rely upon each other and we will do something together.''
''So, how about if we want someone stranger to being our family?''
''What do you mean?''
''Apart from family relationships, is there any relationship we can make?'' He said while gaze into my eyes. My heart started beating again.
''Err-uh...what-what...what relationship you want?''
''What do you think our relationship be right now?''
''Huh?? Arent we are...colleagues...you are my senior...and I'm your junior. We are a senior-junior relationship...?''
''Oh yeah? Do you think we in that level of relationship?''
''What level we are on now?'' I said while I'm captivated by his gaze.
''Why don't we change our level now into another level of relationship...''
''What level...?'' My heart pounding faster. I patiently waiting for his words...
''Into the...friendship level...'' He replied.
''What??''
''Yeah, don't you want to be a friend with me? Or did you only want Andrew just to be your guy friend?''
''No, I mean...yeah. I accept you as my friend. I can friend with anyone.''
''Okay, that's cool.''
My heart was broken after he asks to be my friend. I just think that he might confess to me. But it turns out that I just overthinking! Maybe he still can't feel my heart toward him. Or maybe he actually has someone...
I tried to ask him about his personal questions, but I scared that he might think that I was an intruder into his personal life. Anyway, maybe I can gradually know about him when we become close friends later.
When the right time, I promise that I confessed to him!
''So, cheer for our friendship!'' He said and lift up our cup of coffee.
''Oh, yeah.''
''I think the rain has stopped. Can we go back now?''
''Yeah, sure. Let go.''
///
After that moment, Lilian was a step closer toward him. She was thinking to save their friendship into the last moment until she makes sure that Brent will be falling in love with her.
When she spending time with him today, she gradually knows his personality. She just knows that he was alone before, and right now she hopes that Brent will not be alone after this. She believes that she can help him to take away his loneliness.
From the conversation they had earlier, she could sense that Brent needs someone he relies on. He doesn't have anyone...but Lilian was tried anything to make him be with her. Even though she felt Brent was a mystery person, there was something that makes her more interested in him.
