Chapter 26 - TWENTY SIX

CHRISTIAN'S POV

   "I went to the hospital to meet Lucas and then on the way home I met Cody. It's a very long story. I'm so tired," Selena replied with tired eyes. She looked like she really wanted to lie down.

  "You can't sleep until you tell me what happened," I said firmly. Because I didn't want her to hide anything from me.

  "You're very selfish Christian. I'm tired, I want to sleep. You should understand me. I'm a girl. So please, I want to sleep now. Tomorrow I promise to tell you everything that happened today," explained the girl with small eyes. It was obvious that she was breathing heavily. Selena seemed to be very angry with me.

  "Okay, I'll keep your promise," I said with a sharp look at her.

  Now Selena opened the door and entered the room. Suddenly my cell phone rang. I immediately picked it up.

  "Hello dad?"

  "Hurry up! I want to have a video call with you," I said in a hurry.

  It was very strange what he wanted. I quickly touched the phone screen and quickly saw my father's round face.

  "What's wrong dad? It's late, why are you calling me," I said in a lazy tone.

  "Hey! Where are you right now? That's your room, right? You didn't go into the room? It's already late. You need to sleep with Selena," I said sternly.

  "I-yeah dad. I'm going into the room too," I replied in a bit of a panic. But I tried to cover it up.

  "Dad? I'm already in the room with Selena now. Look at how exhausted she is," I said a little louder. To be heard by Selena. I also pinched Selena's arm to wake her up.

  "Daddy, Selena is very tired today," I said loudly.

  Now Selena quickly woke up and I immediately pointed my cell phone at her face.

  "Dad, it's getting late. Christian and I are going to bed," Selena said as she waved her hand. Then she pretended to fall asleep again.

  "Good, you two are already in the room. Then I'll go to bed too. You two should sleep together. Because it's cold tonight," Dad said with a smile.

  "Yes dad, good night dad," I said quickly then closed my cell phone.

  "You get out of this room already! I'm going to bed!" Selena said in a high tone. She even pushed my arm.

  "I don't want to sleep with you either," I said with feigned anger. I really wanted to sleep with Selena. What should I do now?

  I finally left her room and thought hard about how I could sleep in Selena's room. I finally had a brilliant idea. I immediately went to my room. I drank a bottle of water. Then I went to the bathroom. I filled the bottle with hard water. Afterward, I poured the water onto my bed. I did it five times. I could see that my mattress was wet.

  "Selena?" I called out loudly. I opened the door to her room, which was unlocked.

  "What's wrong again? Oh my God you're really bothering me," Selena said with a crumpled face.

  "I slept in your room. My mattress is wet. There's a leak in my wall. I think there's a problem upstairs."

  "You're really making me angry. Go sleep on the sofa," Selena said quickly and then she covered herself.

  I just kept quiet and sat on the sofa right facing Selena's bed.

  "Heh shit, I wanted to sleep in the same bed with Selena. Why is it like this," I said with annoyance.

  I lay down on the sofa. This was very uncomfortable. My back will definitely hurt when I wake up. This sofa is also narrow. Alright, I'll wait for Selena's trash to fall asleep and I'll sleep next to her. I smiled widely at Selena who was asleep.

***

  "Hey wake up, why are you sleeping in my bed?" asked Selena startling me.

  I looked at her messy face because her hair was also messy.

  "Hey you! Don't stay still! Get up!" Selena's hand continued to shake my arm.

  "I couldn't sleep on the sofa. So I slept on your bed. Don't worry, I didn't touch you at all!" I said firmly. I quickly got up and left Selena's room.

I walked to my room with a smile on my face. My heart felt very happy. Because I slept with Selena last night. Although I could only see her face up close when she was asleep. But I was really happy. I don't know why I've never felt this happy.

  After I cleaned myself up. I immediately headed to the dining room. It turned out that the food was already served on the table. Yes, even if it's just bread and peanut butter.

  I sat in a chair and in front of me Selena was eating bread with gusto. Her hair was a mess and she was still in her pajamas.

  "You're stone awake?" I asked as I smeared peanut butter on the bread.

 "Yes, I just woke up. What's wrong? What's wrong?" asked Selena with a frown. She continued to chew her food.

  After I finished with one piece of bread I finished. I started talking seriously with Selena.

  "So what happened yesterday? Where have you been?" I asked firmly while putting both elbows on the table. My fingers were pressed together. My eyes watched her intensely.

  "You're just like a cop," Selena said with a lazy glance. 

  "Just tell me, no nonsense," I said firmly. 

  "This is very bad for me. So after I visited Lucas. I went home and on the way back I suddenly ran into Cody. Cody apologized and kept asking me to talk to him. But I certainly didn't want to. But he kept following me," Selena explained with a glum face.

  "Then what happened? Did you get hurt?" I asked frantically. Because I knew her ex-boyfriend was not very nice.

  "I wasn't hurt at all. But suddenly when me and Cody were on the road. Four men chased Cody. And managed to catch Cody. Cody was taken to the car and I, who felt sorry for him, immediately followed the car. My taxi was finally able to follow the car to its destination. I was still hiding and saw how Cody was finally beaten to death. After they left. I immediately helped Cody. Now Cody's condition is very bad. He's in a coma," Selena explained, staring out the window. For some reason she looked so sorry for Cody.

  "So you're paying for the hospital?" I asked firmly. Because I knew Cody was a poor man.

  "Yes, because I was the only one there. So I tried to help him," Selena said with a flat face.

  "You idiot! Why do you still care about that asshole Cody!" I said in a high tone and glared into Selena's eyes.
