Din's POV
"D-Din?!" Nan thought that Din lost his sense and screamed a bit.
"HUPP!!!" Din pressed Nan's shoulder to sit down on her own bed. "Now, rest up!".
Nan is surprised that her eyes were open wide. It seems she's expecting something else but didn't expect this either. Din's hands still on Nan's shoulder. Nan suddenly covers her face with her both hands and Din worriedly asks, "What's up with you, Nan? You've been averting your eyes from me since we're in the hospital."
"..." Nan didn't answer but still cover her face. Then, Din goes down to his knees to see Nan's face and try to remove her hands away.
"No! Don't!" Nan declines hardly.
"Why?! What's wrong with you?! Are you avoiding me after we confess each other?!" Din is getting on his nerves.
"It's not that!" Nan firmly disagrees with Din's assumption.
"So, What?!"
"I… I look terrible," Nan said in a low voice. Din is confused about what Nan said about 'terrible'.
"What do you mean by terrible?"
"I basically use my home-clothing and didn't even put on makeup as I usually do. I feel plain and... I don't want you to see me like this." Nan said. Still covering her face.
Din smiled and breathe in relief. He grabs both Nan's wrist and suddenly pulls it until he sees Nan's expression.
Nan is adorable. While she said something so cute, she also said that she feels plain. But, for what Din sees, Nan is even cuter with her natural redden cheeks, blushed face when she's embarrassed.
"Hey, so this is why you've been everting your eyes from me?" Din prop up his chin giving a teasing gaze to Nan. Nan nods.
"You know? I prefer these real redden checks than you using a 'blush-on'," Din touched and pinch Nan's left cheek gently.
Nan's heart skips a beat and so is Din. He just realized that he's being overwhelmed by Nan. It's just like a magnet. Din keeps wanting to touch Nan. Din release his touch and now he covered his face then pretend to check out something on his bag.
Poor Nan is left with shock. She lay herself down to her bed and turn to the walls. They both embarrassed.
A few minutes have passed.
Nan overslept when she was hiding from the current embarrassment and Din try to wake her up to eat dinner.
"Nan, wake up! Naan!" Din tries to wake her up by moving her hand repeatedly, but it doesn't work. He decides to let her rest a few bit more and he ordered some food and drinks.
While waiting, Din takes a stroll around her room and seeing her things. He saw her hanging pictures, wall decorations, the pile of paperwork, and he saw a hand fan popping out from a drawer. He tried to put it inside so he opened the drawer first. Din's jaw dropped as if he can't believe what he just saw. It is a bunch of fan merch of thai actors. There are his picture and Charm on the fan, Charm's keychain, and even Tan's photo card. But, why can't he find something with his only face in these merchandises?
The food is here and It's about the time for Nan to wake up. He tingles her nose with a piece of paper he found around her room.
"Come on wake up dinner is here" Din talks as soon Nan moves her hand scratching her nose. She sat down on her bed and said, "Uhuh… I'll shower first." she went to the bathroom.
While waiting for Nan, Din prepare the dinner. He makes sure didn't make a lot of sounds and move things gently. He heard the sound of Nan coming out of the bathroom and Din dumfounded by her appearance with just a towel covering her body.
"Ohok!!" Din choked and sputtered. Nan jumped and just realized that Din is in her room after she heard Din's cough voice.
Din turns his back.
Nan's POV
Nan take her clothes and went back to dress appropriately. "Sorry, I'm not used to have a guest." Her face felt hot. Her face probably as red as a tomato. Din chuckles.
They ate their dinner and Nan ask about things to be concerned for Din's sleepover to drop the awkward atmosphere. How will he sleep, his private needs, and tomorrow's schedule. Until she ran out of questions. She honestly wanted to talk about what happened this morning in the medical room.
Then Din asks, "Nan, can I asked you something?" Out of the blue.
"Ah, sure. What is it?"
"Here." Din showed Nan's fan-merchandise (a hand fan) he recently found.
"WHA-?!!" Nan is shocked because she already makes sure that everything is hidden before Din comes in. Nan hardly tries to take the hand fan from the other side of the table, but he pulls back to his side so Nan can't reach it. "Stop!" Din said.
Nan paused and go back to her seat and said, "I'm sorry." with a puzzled expression. Din confused, "Why are you apologizing?" And for the first time, Din discovered the unconfident side of Nan.
"Isn't it weird? Being a fan of this kind of thing, boys love, and It feels like I'm lying to you. " She said.
"What? Lying? I think what you want to keep as a secret is your right and I never ask about this before. Why do you think that way?" Din still didn't meet Nan's reason to be ashamed of the things she liked.
"Well, I'm not used to talking about this to people besides Veo and it's not a common thing back in Indonesia. So, instead of receive comments, I rather hide it and it would be offensive for guys to know I am like that." Nan explained, but Din not giving up. He gives examples of his experience meeting with fans. "I see. Well, there's a bunch of people who hide it, but there's also a lot who go down to the street to watch the live shows and screamed out their names."
Nan has her own perspectives, "I don't want to be a person who didn't think about people around me." Din replies,
"It's not turning your back of your surroundings. They not go down to the street because they don't care but simply for their own happiness and the actors themselves. Don't you know how happy I was when I found those merchandise you have?"
Nan surprised at what Din asks, "You're happy?"
"Yeah! I was! Well, I didn't found one with only my face though, I just found this one with Charm in it, I even found one with P' Tan's face." Din sulked a bit.
Nan laughed, she relieved that Din can take for what she liked. "That's a relief, thanks! I thought we'll be awkward because of this."
"..." Din paused and Nan continues her meals.
"There's another thing already make an awkward situation between us. Should we talk about this?" Din asked with a serious face and Nan gulped down her food.
OMG OMG OMG!!! What will happen to both of them in a small room all alone?! I'm drooling, are you? lol
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
