While challenging the hot sun in the afternoon, Jeha took a breath and made his hands a pillow.
"Sorry for kicking you out this morning, and as a way of repaying you for taking care of me, that's why I brought you here because I'm sure you've never had a vacation?"
"You mean?" Shin asked as she tilted her body to look at Jeha.
"I'm not very good at saying thank you, but I know how to repay. Besides, I also really want to come to this beach with a special person," Jeha replied.
"Special? So I'm considered special because he invited me to come here. Ahh.. Should I be happy or not, this makes my heart ache again, I hope this isn't a sign of heart failure," Shin thought as she smiled to herself with reddened cheeks.
"Let's go back!" Jeha said as he glanced at Shin who was beside him.
"Ok," Shin said as she got up from her sleep.
Jeha also stood up, after Jeha put all his clothes on. The two of them walked hand in hand towards the parking lot.
Just as he was walking, Jeha glanced at Shin who was on his right and looked cold. Jeha smiled and covered Shin with his shirt.
Shin, who had been silent all this time, was slightly surprised when she saw Jeha's actions.
"Wear it so you feel warm!" Jeha said as Shin looked at him strangely.
"Thank you," Shin said as she put on Jeha's shirt to better cover her cold body.
"Mmm" She said awkwardly.
"It's only natural for boys to do that, right? Don't let women feel uncomfortable," Jeha thought while holding back a smile.
After that short talk, it was quiet again. They were both silent for a moment.
Not long after, curiosity made Shin dare to ask.
"Jeha?" Shin called in a soft voice while glancing at Jeha who was beside her.
"Umm?" Jeha said as he glanced at Shin as well with a meaningful expression.
"Have you ever been in love? Do you believe in first love? and do you already have a boyfriend?" Shin asked with a bit of hesitation.
Hearing Shin's question, Jeha was silent for a while until they stopped beside the car and asked Shin to get in first.
Jeha's indifferent attitude and unwillingness to answer her questions made Shin frown and return to silence.
Not long after that. Jeha got into the car and he quickly started his car away from the beach.
Shin's heart was like a tangled thread, she didn't expect her question to make Jeha speechless.
"I don't believe in love. But, I have someone I have kept in my heart for a long time. She is the most comfortable house I've ever been in, until now I haven't found a comfortable home other than her."
Suddenly those words just slipped from Jeha's mouth and it made Shin startled and immediately turned his head. Shin's heart ached to hear Jeha's explanation. She didn't think that Jeha could be so candid. Does that mean there's no chance for her?
"Is she your lover?" Shin asked with an uncertain heart.
Jeha smiled for a while after that he said, "She is more than a lover, for me, she is a friend, sister, teacher, and the most comfortable home to rest and complain about all my tiredness and complaints about this unfair world."
Shin's heart burned with jealousy, she began to wonder what kind of woman seemed very special and meaningful to Jeha.
"Then why don't you believe in love? What do you mean? Isn't there a woman you already love? That means you believe in love," Shin said.
"Yeah, I don't believe in love," Jeha replied.
"Why?" Shin was getting more and more curious.
She felt confused with Jeha, because he said that if he already has someone in his heart, why is he now saying that he doesn't believe in love? could it be that he was deeply injured? that's what Shin thought.
Jeha was silent for a moment, for him love was not only about two people of the opposite sex but what he meant was a fairly broad love, namely family love. A father's love for his child.
~Back~
Remembering that made Shin flinch and open her eyes, after that she turned to Jeha who still had his eyes closed.
"Jeha?" Called Shin softly because she was afraid to disturb Jeha who was probably sleeping.
"Speak! Don't look at me like that, you'll have a hard time moving on," Jeha said, still in the same position and closed her eyes.
"Just now I remembered when we were on one of the beaches in China, the place you took me once. Do you still remember?" Shin asked as she got up from her sleep and sat looking up at the vast ocean.
"Continue, what do you want to talk about!" Jeha said.
"You said you don't believe in love, but in fact, the person you love is Yk or Princess Aiko, then why did you say you don't believe in love?" Shin asked with difficulty managing her language so that Jeha wouldn't be offended.
Hearing Shin's question, Jeha opened his eyes and got up from his sleep, he sat down next to Shin. This time he did not intend to remain silent.
