Chapter 23 Needs Warmth
Selgie smiled sadly when she saw Kelvin with Janeeta. They looked so close, as if they had known each other for a long time.
Selgie felt that she had lost now, Selgie didn’t expect that Janeeta would stab her in the back.
The girl was secretly eyeing Kelvin, approaching him secretly behind his back.
Selgie immediately asked Tony to take her car away.
“Where are we going?” Selgie asked Tony, but her gaze kept going out the window, looking at the beautiful scenery along the way.
But the beauty she saw, still couldn’t make her heart happy. There was a wound that scratched her heart.
Selgie felt like her chest was being torn apart, as she recalled the previous incident where Kelvin preferred to take the drink Janeeta gave him.
“We’re going somewhere beautiful!” Tony whispered in Selgie’s ear
Selgie’s body stiffened and tried to move away from him.
Selgie’s brows furrowed as Tony’s car pulled up not far from the forest she had once visited just to see the lake that was so beautiful and soothing to everyone who came there.
But the direction Tony was traveling was not the direction Selgie had traveled before.
Could there be many paths to the lake? Selgie thought so.
“Tony, it’s getting late.” Selgie looked up at the beautiful ceiling with the fading sunlight.
“No problem! We’ll spend the night here, soon my other friends will bring camping equipment.” Tony easily said that.
Selgie was shocked, obviously she was shocked because this was not a good thing for her, especially since she didn’t ask Aunt Wardhani for permission, what if she looked for her.
The middle-aged woman would always worry about her if she went home the next day without telling her.
“Tony, why didn’t you talk from the start? If it’s like this I can go home first. I didn’t bring my coat! The night is getting colder,” Selgie explained.
“It won’t get cold Selgie, I’ll warm you up…” The smirk that appeared behind Tony’s lips made Selgie feel that danger was approaching her.
Tony spoke again, “I’ll build a bonfire to warm you up!”
Selgie chose to ignore Tony’s words
Selgie looked very confused as everyone started walking towards the lake that Selgie had visited.
“Selgie, let’s go!” Abel invited Selgie who was now pulled inside with Tony.
“Tony, why don’t you give your coat to Selgie!” Abel once again opened his mouth.
Selgie hugged her cold body, as the strong wind hit her body, because she was only wearing cheerleader clothes, with a small bag that she carried, which only contained makeup tools, today she had dressed up as beautiful as possible even with a natural-looking polish. Selgie forgot to change her clothes before going out.
This was all because of Kelvin, the man who made her unable to think properly and only went out to find peace.
Now she didn’t know what to do to get close to him again. Should she give up?
Tony didn’t intend to give Selgie his coat at all. He deliberately didn’t want to give her his coat so that she would get closer to him.
Selgie didn’t care about that anymore, she felt that she had already come and joined them, there was no need to regret it.
Selgie and Tony and their friends continued to walk through the dense trees, which looked beautiful when seen from a distance.
The group of 7 is now busy getting ready to set up tents and build a campfire.
Selgie just sat quietly under the big tree.
Her gaze never left. She kept looking back and forth. She seemed to be in a state of alert.
Selgie looked up into the tree, seeing a bird that she had seen before.
The bird was looking at her with great interest. Selgie tried to pick up a stone and threw it upwards, right at the bird, which was now flying somewhere.
She felt uncomfortable in her heart,
Tony walked over to Selgie, the night was getting late and Selgie’s body was getting cold.
The bonfire that Tony made was burning so big.
Selgie felt scared, when the light of the fire burned so big. What if the fire invited the wolf she had seen before, to come here.
“Selgie, I only have one coat, so we can only use one coat together.” Tony opened his coat and sat beside her, about to hug Selgie’s body to his.
Selgie was eager to resist but, the cold clung to her skin, and she was forced into Tony’s embrace.
The bonfire that was once so big is now starting to fade.
Selgie’s body was shivering with cold.
Even though she was in Tony’s arms, she was still very cold.
“Ton, I think we’re going to look for firewood. You guys wait here. There’s Ibel and Abel in the tent. It’s not just you two.” Explained Irfan who immediately left with the other boys and was followed by a woman Selgie didn’t recognize.
Tony did not introduce the woman to her.
Tony just nodded his head.
“Is there only one tent?” Selgie asked, wishing she could go in to warm up instead of being hugged by Tony all the time, making her very uncomfortable.
“Yes, it’s just for the ladies to sleep in later!” Tony explained.
“Why is that? And you guys?” Selgie wondered, if the tent was only for the ladies, then where would the men sleep? It made Selgie wonder.
“We’ll keep watch outside without sleeping…” Tony explained, then spoke again to invite Selgie to leave.
“We’d better take a closer look at the lake.”
Selgie looked at the lake that looked so beautiful at night, the moon that had been visible above the sky was now clearly visible in the water.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Selgie tried to follow Tony’s invitation to the edge of the lake.
They sat on the beautiful grass by the lake.
“Do you come here often?” Selgie tried to ask
“Yes, we often camp here. During school vacations,” Tony explained as he looked at Selgie’s face near him.
They looked like a couple that gave each other warmth.
Tony kept looking at Selgie and tried to bring her face closer, “Ton, what are you doing.” Selgie felt scared when Tony looked at her like he wanted to pounce on her right now.
