BAIDER (ENGLISH VERSION)

ANMELA’S POV

I napped for about a minute, I think. I got up from the bed and looked for my clothes. I hung my feet and touched the ground afterward.

I went to the closet and put my clothes on. I was smiling while walking towards the door. I was about to step out of the room when I heard Laurent.

“Bye, I love you, too.”

My feet were stuck on the ground. I felt like someone threw me cold water that made me freeze. My heart tightened immediately. Suffocating every corner of my chest. I could feel the continues stabbed in it. Suddenly, the tears in my eyes condensed.

I heard it right. He was saying I love you to whomever it was.

Does he have another girlfriend?

I could not accept the thought and I had no ability to ask him because I am afraid of tge answer.

Should I ask him? What if he answered yes and dumped me effortlessly? No! I will die if that happens.

When I heard his footsteps I ran again towards the bed and laid down. I wiped the tears as fast as I could. I was in a side position and my eyes closed when I felt the bouncing of the bed. He came up, laid next to me and wrapped his arms on my waist.

“You, awake?” He buried his face on my neck. “I know you are awake.”

I moved my body to face him. “How did you know?”

“You put your clothes on.”

I managed to form a wide genuine smile. My heart failed to beat. It hurts me so much. I gathered all my strength to spell out my question, but no matter how much energy I collected-nothing. I ended up staring at him with full love and admiration.

It does not matter if he has a girl or what. I love him so much! And if he leaves me, I will die. I swear.

“You look sad?” He pulled me gently closer to him and hugged me so tight.

I could not take this anymore. I burst out in sobs on his shoulder. I wanted to say a word or at least pull myself together, but I was still silent.

He gave a little distance between our bodies. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to take advantage of you. I won’t repeat that again. It’s just I love you that’s why I do some stupid things. Don’t cry like-”

“No, it’s not just that.”

He wiped the tears on my eyes and cheek. “Then what?”

“I…” I opened my mouth and then closed. Opened again and closed. I had no idea how to start or where to start. In the end, I caught myself lying. “I’m just happy.”

A loud sig of relief blew out from his mouth. “I thought you had a problem from what happened between us. Anmela Eris, you can say no to me if you don’t want. I won’t force you.”

A smile grew on my lips. I am truly happy. He can now talk long to me and say whatever he wants. That means he likes to talk to me.

“No, that’s not that.” I cupped his handsome cheek and glued our nose. “I love you. I”m willing to do everything you wish for and I can do that with a smile on my lips.” I shook my nose to his. “I will just ask you not to leave me.”

He held the back of my head and caressed my hair. “That won’t happen.”

“Thank you.”

I am so addicted, crazy in love with him. My head will be out of my sanity if he lets go of me.

He moved closer and pressed our lips together. “I love you, Anmela Eris.” He hugged me so tight. “You are enough.”

Through his voice, all the doubts and aches in my heart blew away. I could feel his love. All I need to do is to trust him. Maybe he was talking to the boy in the phone call or to her sister, Lairessa. There were so many possibilities and I would not risk our relationship for just false accusations.

In a relationship, we need to trust our partner to maintain a healthy companionship with a happy heart.

So I decided to push away all the negative thoughts and focused on what we felt-to our love that could really be seen in our actions.

“Don’t you want to get up?” Laurent whispered with a sweet voice.

“Let’s go to Alem.” I held his hand. We got out of bed and fixed our things.

When Laurent was not looking at me, I watched every action he did. His face was brightening unlike the first time I saw him. He looked so happy.

Our eyes met, I stretched my lips to form a lovable smile. He just gave me a small smile, but his eyes were blinking in a spark of contentment.

That is enough for me. At least Laurent is with me. He holds me as if I am like a fragile vase, and must take care.

After a few minutes of preparation, we walked outside and inserted our bodies in the car. He drove away, going to Alem’s place.

“Anmela!” Alem ran towards me, jumped and hugged me so tight as if we had not seen each other for a year. “I’m so excited to have a night out with you! Actually, I invited some of my friends to have more fun! We can-” She stopped when she saw Laurent. “Hi, Mr. Heart-Taking!”

I chuckled when Alem winked on him. Laurent winced as if what she did was gross to him.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“Your boyfriend is rude! But handsome and hot!”

I could not burst out laughing. Alemia was really a blabby joker.

“Come closer to me, Laurent. I won’t bite you. Rawr!” She teased him and that made his face look sour. “Ohh? You acted like not falling in love with Anmela’s sweet words, huh?”

“Your friend is a bit annoying.” Laurent took that seriously. He had wrinkled eyebrows now while his hands slid in his pocket.

“Hey, don’t be like that.” I wrapped my hands on his lower arm.

“Okay. Fine. I keep my mouth shut! This lovely couple makes me envious! I wanna find boys tonight.” Alem chuckled out loud. She walked towards the entrance of the house.

We followed her. I was shocked when there were eight people on the couch. I knew the others because they were our classmates. I was also familiar with some of them, from the other college I thought.

“Everyone! Anm is here with her boyfriend, Laurent Baider.” Alem announced as if we were the important person.

“Let’s be wasted tonight!” They all shouted as we walked towards them.

But Laurent bothered me. He was not happy like I expected. He hated the noise.

I held his hand and intertwined. “Why not try different things?”

“I’m trying, Baby Girl.”

I tiptoed and gave him a kiss on the cheek and then I stretched his lips. “Smile, Baby Boy.”

He never failed me. He immediately grew a wide handsome attractive nice looking smile that made my heart pumped recklessly.
