Chereads / Yuana, Stay with Me (English) / Chapter 20 - Because of Pritta  

Chapter 20 - Because of Pritta  

In the following days, Yuana and Joseph could even be friends. It turned out that the playboy lived with his father and younger sister. His mother died long ago. His father who was always busy couldn't pay attention to him and his sister. It was the reason he was less affectionate.

Yuana finally concluded, arrogant and pretentious, proud to be a playboy appeared because Joseph wanted attention. It was a shame that Joseph chose the wrong way.

On the other hand, Manfred often irritated Yuana. Lately, he seemed to be avoiding Yuana. Yuana was almost sure the culprit was a girl. Like that afternoon, Yuana met Manfred near the library. Yuana saw Manfred going home, he was in the parking lot.

"Manfred!" called Yuana. Yuana approached him. "Can we go together?"

"Sorry, Yu ... I can't." Manfred turned to Yuana.

"Any more practice?" Yuana confirmed.

"No. I'm waiting for my friend." Manfred climbed onto the seat of his motorbike.

"Ooh, okay," Yuana answered lazily, slightly annoyed.

Manfred left Yuana. Soon, Yuana saw him riding with a girl, the same girl as the previous day. Yuana remembered the girl's name was Pritta. She was beautiful, her parents were one of the conglomerates in this city. Pritta was quite popular on campus.

Yuana was very irritated. It turned out that Manfred was mean to him too. Manfred firmly said he loved Yuana. Then, what has Manfred done? Yuana actually felt like she was being left out. Yuana was really angry. She was determined in her heart that he would make the calculations with Manfred. It turned out that the nature of this one from Yuana had not changed. She just wanted to have the attention for herself. Manfred had to be careful. Someone was furious. And she was a beautiful girl that he loved!

*****

For several days, Yuana did not want to know about Manfred. She didn't care about the guy. She was sure Manfred must be looking for her. Sure enough, after a week of not seeing Yuana, Manfred was confused. He sent a chat, Yuana did not reply. He called, Yuana never picked up. She tried to look for her on campus but he couldn't find her.

"What happens to her? She is just like disappearing into another world. Usually, she also looks for me. In the morning I was picked her up, she has left. I came to her class, to take her home, she is gone. It must be something here," said Manfred.

Manfred tried calling Yuana again. Even Yuana's HP was not active. Finally, Manfred called the phone number of Yuana's house. Ira accepted.

"Ira, is Yuana at home?" Manfred asked.

"Hey, Manfred?" Ira spoke in her trademark voice.

"Yuan's cellphone is not active. I can't get her." Manfred explained the situation.

"Just a moment," Ira intended to see Yuana who was in her room.

"Tell her it's important," Manfred advised.

Ira went to Yuana's room. She was lazy lying-in bed listening to the song. Ira approached her and informed her that Manfred had called. Yuana didn't react, still engrossed in the song she was listening to.

"Tell him I am not at home," Yuana answered languidly.

"Manfred said it is important. He knew you are at home anyway." Ira wondered why Yuana refused to receive a call from Manfred. Lately, she was always excited when it came to dealing with Manfred.

"Just say to him, I'm sleeping or taking a shower, or whatever," Yuana said, her face was pitifully mixed with annoyance.

"Are you angry with him?" said Ira.

Yuana pouted. "You don't need to know."

Ira smiled, shook her head, then returned to the living room. She passed Yuana's message to Manfred.

"Sorry, she said she was sleeping ... Eh, ouch ..." Ira bit her lip, realizing she had said the wrong words.

"Ira, Yuan isn't sleeping, is he? I'm going there. Don't tell her I am coming. Thank you," Manfred hung up. He was sure something was wrong with Yuana. He had to go to her right away and find out what was wrong.

Twenty minutes later, Manfred arrived at Yuana's house. He parked the motorbike and knocked on the door. Ira opened the door and ushered him inside.

"She's taking a shower. Just wait a minute," said Ira with a friendly smile.

Yuana's habit in the afternoon after bathing, she would definitely go to the kitchen to get a warm drink and eat cookies. She would come down from her room which would immediately meet the living room and was connected to the dining room and kitchen.

Ten minutes after, Yuana came down, wearing a white t-shirt and knee-length dark brown pants. Up to the living room, she saw Manfred. Manfred smiled at her. Immediately she put on a sour face.

"Why are you here?" asked Yuana curtly.

Manfred was surprised by Yuana's welcome. "Yu, what happened? For several days you didn't reply to my chats, you didn't receive calls, on campus when I looked for you, I couldn't find you. What's wrong with you?" Manfred asked.

"Do you have any business with me? What about?" Yuana took a few steps forward, leaning her body on the chair in front of Manfred.

"Yu, I miss you." Manfred stood up and approached Yuana.

"Are you sure? Can you still miss me?" Yuana folded her arms.

"Yu, what are you talking about?" Manfred looked at Yuana in surprise and anger.

"Don't you realize? You've been mean to me." Yuana looked back at Manfred. "You're lying, Fred. You say you love me. In fact, you don't care about me."

"Me?" Manfred was even more confused.

"Because of that girl, right? Her skin is pure white, short hair is the latest model. Fashionable and famous on campus. That's why you don't want to know about me anymore. It's okay, Fred. I don't mind. It's normal for girls to be lied to. " Yuana spoke while walking around the room. Her tone was really angry.

Manfred's eyes followed Yuana who was walking to and fro.

"Listen, Fred. Bobby left me. And you too. You guys, it turned out to be the same." Yuana's emotions were overflowing. Manfred was taken aback by Yuana's words.

"Yuan ... listen to me. Why did you bring Bobby here? Besides, you know why Bobby had to go," said Manfred. "When it comes to Pritta, there's nothing wrong with her and me, Yu. We're just friends."

"Friends? You both go out every day. Riding on a motorbike. You say, friends? I'm not blind, Fred!" Yuana almost couldn't control her feelings.

"Are you angry because of Pritta? Are you jealous?" Manfred stared Yuana deeper.

Yuana stopped her feet. Then she stood staring at Manfred. The boy smiled. Why was he getting more handsome?

"What's so funny? Why are you smiling?" Yuana took another step, closer to Manfred.

"You are jealous of Pritta? Yuan … you …" Manfred laughed. It was a pleasure to realize that Yuana could be annoyed with Pritta.

"Why are you even laughing?" Yuana was getting irritated. She picked up a pillow on the couch and threw it at Manfred. Manfred caught the pillow.

"Yuana ... you are jealous." Manfred was now walking towards Yuana. "This is good for me. It means you love me, Yu ..." Manfred's smile was wide. There was joy in his heart.

"No way. I don't want to care about you." Yuana turned around, leaving Manfred to the upper room.

"Yu, wait!" Manfred pulled Yuana's arm. "Listen to my explanation, please."

"Take it off." Yuana waved Manfred's hand. She continued her steps up the stairs.
