The moment Davi heard his question, a short silence went by as her arm around his neck slightly tightened. Causing the disguised Zaki to rethink about his question even though an instant disappointed expression carved in his face, as though he was a paparazzi who just missed the perfect chance to get the scope of his supposed to be next epic headline.

"Er… if it's too hard to answer right now, I'll just ask you another---,"

"No its fine, I'll answer it."

Hearing her words, the light of the heavens returned into his face. And in an instant, he turned into a serious looking father who was ready to listen to her beloved daughter's confession about her precious feelings to his soon to be son in law. He shut his mouth as he waited for the words she's about to say, intently.

"Hmm… I haven't thought of it until now actually, but now that I think about it… hmm." Davi fell silent for another while and then, she continued. "I admit, he still scares me occasionally, but lately I think I'm getting used to him. Of course, he still sends me shivers down my spine but… It's strange but… I felt like I don't want to get away from him, that whenever he was being scary like that, I wanted to get even closer to him and just pet him and just embrace him… It's not like I wanted to change him, I don't want to. He's scary but… and of course, I'm wishing he could be softer and warmer too but… when it comes to him being scary, I think I don't hate that side of him, even though it almost seems like it was the only side he has almost all of the time. And his silence, whenever he's quiet and all, lately, I think I'm pretty getting used to it as well. It's strange but at first I thought I can never stand it, but now I think I don't hate the kind of silence between us after all. Haha. Was that weird?"

"Not at all," he answered right away. Tsk. This girl… You don't actually have any idea how wonderful you are, are you? Zaki was actually smiling wide as he listens to her sincere, warm and long statement. He even casually walked out of the elevator once they reached the third floor and took the stairs to gain more time to listen to her.

And after his reply, Davi continued talking. "I think all I want to do right now is stay beside him, I guess. And right now, he's no longer stranger to me. And, I think, the reason why I haven't felt any regret until now was because it was him. Maybe, no, I'm sure I was able to breathe again because it was him that I'm with right now. I was actually thinking things like, what if it's not him and someone else that I ended up with, that day? I asked myself that question for countless times, and I could only shake my head, and almost don't want to even think about it."

"Don't you think, that's just what they called fate?" Zaki uttered. He was quite being drawn emotionally by her that he responded to her without realizing. And the moment he realized, he had no choice but to keep going. "Well… Maybe, fate is real, after all… and you're one among its victim."

"Haha. You think so? I don't see myself as a victim though. At least as of now."

Somehow, Davi smiled and laughed thinking about the idea of it. If fate was indeed the one responsible, if it is indeed real, then won't she need to give thanks to the god of fate?

At that same moment, upon hearing the last part of her statement, even though Zaki mentioned the word 'victim' in a good way, his gossiping side made him asked her again. "Why? Did you think, you'll eventually become a victim in the future?"

Davi fell silent for a while.

"Hmm… I don't really know. But, do you think Sei will eventually turn me into a victim in the end?"

"Er… is that your question to me?"

"Uhh... No, that question can wait for the near future, I have a much important question right now."

"Okay then, go ahead."
