Chapter 59

While pushing Kenzo's trolley, Arka walked around the campus. The man was confused about where to take his son while the cafeteria looked so crowded, finally he decided to take his son for a walk around the campus.

Arka got a lot of greetings every time he met people. Many even wanted to get acquainted with Kenzo but Arka did not allow it for Kenzo's comfort and safety. No one knew if they were free from germs or not and Arka didn't want his son to get hurt. 

"What a handsome boy, sir. No wonder his father is so handsome," said one of the students, praising Kenzo to get Arka's attention.

"Mr. Arka, why did you bring Kenzo, where is his mother?"

"His mother is busy. Please, very politely, I ask that no one touches my son. I can't be sure if your hands are clean or not," said Arka.

In the middle of the conversation, Jenny suddenly arrived. She acted like an acrobat with Arka and Kenzo, making some of the students confused as to how Jenny could be that friendly.

"Kenzo, how funny. Have you eaten yet? Arka, can I hold Kenzo?" Jenny asked Arka, who immediately rejected her.

Seeing that Jenny wanted to lift Kenzo's body from the trolley, Arka quickly held her back and slightly pushed Jenny's body away from his son.

"You can't hear me, I said no, so don't touch him."

"Why, I just want to hold him. Can't I? My hands are clean anyway."

"You understand my language, right?"

Seeing how Arka was angry with Jenny made some of the female students stifle their laughter. They seemed happy to see Jenny get angry with Arka.

Not wanting anything to happen to his son, Arka took him away, leaving Jenny and the other students behind.

"Why are you laughing? Is there something funny? Disperse!" Jenny shouted while staring unhappily at the students.

"Cckkk watch out Arka, you've embarrassed me in front of so many people!"

Naya grumbled as she looked for the book she had been looking for but couldn't find. She was currently in the campus library working on her accumulated coursework. Naya had been working on her assignment with her friend but suddenly her friend left because of an event as a result she was now alone and struggling to find books.

It had been almost 15 minutes since Naya walked around the campus looking for the book she was looking for but she couldn't find it. Frustrated, she decided to ask the staff at the library.

"Oh you can look on the shelf at the end, it'll be there," said the staff member who Naya had just asked.

Naya nodded with a smile. After saying thank you the woman immediately walked towards the aisle the staff had just told her about. Sure enough, the book she had been looking for was on the top shelf.

"No wonder I can't find it, it's on top of the book. I wonder how I'm going to get it."

Naya began to look around, trying to find someone she could ask to help her pick up the book as her body was too short to do so. But there was no one there. Feeling that she had left Kenzo for too long, Naya tried to pick up the book herself by standing on tiptoe and jumping slightly.

"Ikh, it's so hard. Why did you put the book on top?"

Until without realizing it, a hand reached up and took the book that Naya wanted to take so easily. Knowing this, Naya immediately turned around to see who had just taken the book she wanted.

"If you can't, ask for help. What if you accidentally knock over a bookshelf and it falls on you? Wouldn't that be dangerous?"

"Zack?" 

The man Naya had just called Zack smiled. "Here's the book."

"Thank you. I tried to find help earlier but there was no one around. Good thing there's you."

"It seems like I'm destined to come whenever you need help. Am I not destined to be your superhero?" Zack asked with a smile.

Naya also smiled in response to Zack's words. She knew he was joking.

"You've done me a favor."

"The first time you said that if we met again, you wanted to treat me. Now we've met again and I even helped you for the second time. So when will you treat me?"

"I still have an assignment, but if you want to wait, I can treat you at the cafeteria if I have time."

"What assignment if I may know? Who knows if I can help."

Naya showed Zack the assignment she was working on. Seeing this, Zack immediately said that he could help her with the assignment. At first Naya refused but Zack insisted and they did the assignment together.

While doing the assignment, Zack and Naya occasionally chatted until they unconsciously started to get along. About an hour later, Naya's assignment was finally finished.

"Done."

"Wow, I've never done an assignment this fast. Thank you Zack, you're very clever."

"You praise me too much."

"Since my assignment is done faster and you've helped me with it, now how about I treat you? But I can only treat at the cafeteria because I've left my son for too long."

Zack looked silent for a while before he said, "Next time we meet. I also have something to do right now. I'll leave then, See you again." Right after saying this Zack walked away leaving Naya behind.

"It's a good thing there's Zack, otherwise I would still be confused about the book. Gosh I have to see Kenzo now, I forgot to give him the spare milk."

After cleaning up her books, Naya hurried to Arka's room. Moments ago Arka had sent her a message saying that he was in her room with Kenzo.

"Naya, where is she going? Why does she seem to be in such a hurry?" Zack muttered accidentally seeing Naya coming out of the library and walking in a hurry. 

Zack, who had not gone far from the campus, could still see Naya. Out of curiosity, he followed her. 

"Whose room is that? Why did Naya go in there?"

Zack decided to wait outside. It wasn't long before the man saw Naya coming out of the room with Arka and a baby trolley. Seeing that Zack was confused, the man thought about why Naya could come out of that room with Arka and her child.

"Naya? Why did she leave with that fierce lecturer? Then who is the baby in the trolley? Is it possible that it's Naya's child? I could've seen the baby that the fierce lecturer was carrying earlier. But the problem is, what is Naya's relationship with the fierce lecturer? How could Naya leave her child to that lecturer?"

Zack tried to think hard, thinking about the relationship between Naya and Arka.

"Is it possible that Naya is the lecturer's wife? Ahh no way! She can't be his wife, but she could be, right? If not, why would she leave her child with that lecturer?"

Zack was really curious about Naya and Arka's relationship. He hoped that he was wrong about Naya being Arka's wife.

"Zack, why are you standing here?" Suddenly Jenny came over, making Zack who had been dreamily silent all this time immediately startled.

"Jenny?"

"What are you doing here? Do you have anything to do with Arka?"

"Arka?"

"Yes, Arka's lecturer. This is his room, there's no way you don't have anything to do with him but standing in front of his room."

Zack was silent. It seemed like the man was still too focused on his thoughts to know what to say.

"Zack!"

"Jenny, do you know that fierce lecturer? Ah, i means Arka."

Jenny nodded "More than just know. We almost got married."

"Almost married?!"

"Yes, if only Naya hadn't stopped us."

"Naya? You know her too?"

Jenny nodded again.

"If Naya hadn't thwarted my marriage to Arka back then, I would be Arka's wife now, not Naya!"

"Naya and Arka are husband and wife?!"
