“Have you brought everything?” Dave's voice that was so soft entered Aini's ears. He who was packing his things was surprised. When she looked up and saw Dave, Aini nodded her head. “Then that's good. Oh… s-one more….”
Aini raised an eyebrow to ask, but Dave still didn't say anything. "Is there any problem? What is it? Did I make a mistake?”
“No, no, that's not it!” Dave exclaimed quickly, he shook his head and moved his hand as a sign that there was no issue at all. He let out a short sigh, rubbed his face and looked at Ain seriously. “I am with that now… you live with Lia temporarily? Is your relationship with Hendramo okay? Is there any problem?” Aini blinked her eyes when she heard that, she had absolutely no idea where Dave knew. 
“Yes, he himself ordered and ordered me to stay there. Actually, I don't know why he said that, but… if that's what he wants, then I'll do what he wants.”
Dave, of course, knew what was going on. Arjuna has also explained the issue, he even told about the incident on campus with Lia during the afternoon. Not wanting to make Aini worry, in the end he just gave a small smile and told Aini to go home immediately. When he was just about to leave Dave, the man suddenly shouted his name, surprising Aini. 
With his luggage, he stared at Dave, saying absolutely nothing. Dave himself was actually very aware of this concern. He didn't know since when this happened, but Aini seemed to be trying hard not to say anything to him when it wasn't working and it was very urgent. It felt a little suffocating, even so Dave realized that it was all his doing that wasn't careful. With a small smile, Dave walked over to Aini, stood beside her and took her luggage. 
"Let me take it. I can deliver to the front. Have you booked a vehicle?” Dave's sweet attitude suddenly made Aini frown, but because she would rather not be impolite, she just kept quiet. 
"Not yet. I intend to do so after being downstairs.”
“Then I will wait.” At first, Aini did not understand at all what Dave was saying. He seemed to think for a few moments, trying to understand what was meant. After a while, when they were downstairs, Aini understood Dave's meaning. Until Aini gets a vehicle, Dave will be waiting for her. Even though she didn't want to, Aini could feel her heart beating fast. 
“Thank you very much, but there's no need. I can take care of myself,” said Aini finally. He tried to ask for the goods that were in Dave's hands. However, it was clear that the man was reluctant to give it. Now the wrinkles on Aini's forehead were visible, but Dave still didn't want to do it. Frustration and annoyance filled Aini, but before she could scold Dave, another voice managed to startle her. The voice came from behind him. 
"Why not give? Even though Aini had asked for it, you know.”
Inside, Dave was already cursing Leo for coming. Somehow, the boy would appear wherever she was, feeling so annoying she wanted to strangle him right now. Of course, Dave only kept those feelings to himself. However, the look on his face was definitely read by Leo, that's why he laughed quite loudly. The man who had just arrived gave a shake of his head before he took Aini's belongings, carrying them alone. 
Seeing this, Aini could tell that she wouldn't be able to escape anymore, not even from Leo. Meanwhile, Dave, who had also received a warning from Arjuna, could only remain silent. If he did something to stop Leo, Aini might be in even greater danger. For now, he would be keeping his mouth shut, there was no use fighting someone who clearly had the advantage. It's not only AIni who is threatened, but his future could also be at stake. 
“Aini, let's go home.” Aini bit her lower lip. She clearly wanted to scream and say no, her heart was scolding herself, to refuse Leo's advances. However, at that moment he felt his brain saying yes, immediately nodded and went with Leo. The conflict that was in he made him just speechless. “Aini? Is there any problem? I have heard from your father that you are now living with Lia. It's okay, right?”
“A-ah, yes … yes, it's okay,” stammered AIni who actually lowered his head, he didn't dare look at Leo's eyes which were full of terrible expressions. Dave, who saw this, could only clench his fist, of course, Leo noticed. A grin appeared on his lips, and he deliberately put his arm around Aini's shoulder. He gripped her so tightly that Aini herself winced in pain. 
“For tonight, where do you want to eat? Or do you want to come to my house and eat my cooking? I'm secretly good at cooking, you know. I'm pretty sure you'll like it.”
“Can… just eat outside?” Aini's unusual question brought laughter to Leo. Of course, he complied easily, so he immediately took Aini to his car. Putting things in the back seat before getting into the seat behind the steering wheel. “What… did I make you angry? Was there a mistake I did?”
“If you already know, why are you still asking?” Unlike before Dave, Leo's voice now sounded colder. His vision also darkened, as if he wanted to make Aini understand his current situation and position. “Didn't I say already? You shouldn't be around other boys, especially that damn Dave! Now that you've done that, what are you going to say, huh? Trying to dodge?”
Aini immediately shook her head, frightened by this angry side of Leo. “No, I won't say anything. It's all my fault. I should have resisted Dave even more strongly not to come near me. I'm sorry… for this time, I beg your pardon,” Aini whispered. He only lowered his head while speaking, completely unable to look at Leo. 
A wide smile appeared on Leo's lips. "Good boy. Since you're already aware of what you're doing, shouldn't I be getting paid? Since you've made me feel so bad at all, you have to do something to make me happy, right?”
“Anything you want?” Aini could feel her heart beating faster and faster as she approached Leo's face. Slowly. Leo's face continued to approach Aini's, until his lips touched Aini's cheek. This made AIni open his eyes in surprise. What just happened? 
"That is right. I just need this. And it feels like… someone out there is angry. As long as you know, yes. If you ever get close to him again… I won't even be able to guarantee your safety. Do you understand the situation? If you still mess around, your life will be threatened!” Leo's exclamation only made Aini nod, she really didn't know what else to do now. He was already at a dead end.
