All About El (Tarnished Sanctity)

12. Working partner ...

It did not feel like it had been one year since El became a resident in the field. But he remained patient and continued to live his daily life as an inmate.

Today, is Sunday, many families of Lapas residents visited by their families including Vira.

El could only sigh, choosing to take a step slowly while occasionally counting his footsteps and then smiling slightly.

His steps stopped right in the flower garden he planted and he took care of with his other friends. El smiled at the flowers that looked lush and could already be sold.

That is how they make money, with a variety of creativity directed to them.

El took his cigarette out of his pocket. Burn and sip while watching the flowers in the garden.

After finishing a cigarette, he took a spray of water to spray the flowers to make them look fresh. Her smile continued to be etched on her beautiful face.

El did not realize from a distance there was a figure of Kai who continued to pay attention to him and was seen reviewing a smile staring at the girl's smile.

While spraying the flowers. Someone called his name.

El frowned because he knew and missed the owner of the heavy voice.

"Tara, '' she turned around and immediately turned around.

Tara approached her with a smile and spread out her arms hinting if she wanted to embrace him.

El immediately put the flower spray in its original place and immediately hugged Tara while crying.

How much the girl missed the figure of the man who had not come to see him for the past month.

Again and again, Tara felt so tightly that the girl hugged her. Crying spilled all the anxiety and burdens that were in his heart.

"Where have you been this month? Why did you just visit me?" in her tears.

Tara just stood still and stroked her back and then peeked at the top of her head.

"I'm sorry, El. I have been very busy lately. Not only you but I also miss you a lot," whispered Tara increasingly tightened her embrace.

There was no reply from El but only the soft sound of his crying was heard.

"Cry if you want to cry. Spill all your tears, do not hold, because it will hurt, whispered Tara then put her chin on the top of her head.

After being satisfied crying, El looked at the face of a man who was so considerate and had helped him a lot. It was obvious that Tara loved him so much

"Have you? Don't cry anymore, you'll look ugly" Tara sneered and wiped the rest of El's tears and kissed her forehead.

"Let's just chat in the room," Tara asked and then clasped her fingers.

El just nodded obediently.

Kai who was still in place, immediately clenched his hands together. Somehow his heart was hot enough to see El so close to Tara, even without feeling awkward and not resisting when Tara hugged him.

Kai wonders to himself, what is the relationship between Tara and El? So they look pretty close and don't look awkward.

"Tara? Does he come here often? But it's impossible because every day when I leave the office, he never leaves the office even he's the one who handles all my work."

"It's been over a year, but why can't I get the data and information about that haughty girl?'' mumbling Kai.

"Even Daniel who is reliable in that field also can not open access to the girl's data. It seems like someone has deliberately locked the data. But who?"

Kai seemed to think and returned to the face of the girl as she cried. For the first time he saw the girl crying.

Meanwhile, Tara takes El to a special room she has prepared for them.

"El, I have a surprise for you and I'm sure you'll like it" Tara said as she clasped her fingers.

"really?' What'sthat?" el asked a little curiously.

"You'll find out later" replied Tara.

After the two reached the room Tara was referring to, El could not hold back her tears.

Yes, Tara invited her friends and work partners who worked with her at the Bronze Bar.

"El, we miss you so much. So ... Your words at that time, is this what you mean?" ask Nico while hugging him.

El just nodded while patting Nico on the back.

"I'm sorry, trust me once I'm free we'll be working partners again. Even without me, you have to be excited, said El.

"El, who made you crouch in this place?'' ask Siska.

El just smiled and clasped Siska's fingers.

"The man who was your bed partner that night, Sis, '' El replied with a chuckle.

Siska immediately widened her eyes.

"What?!! Really? But why?" siska asked curiously.

"As usual, I refused and you were his successor. But, oh, forget it. You see, everything has happened, in fact I am now in this prodeo hotel, said El while chuckling.

They just bobble their heads to see him chuckle including Tara.

"El."

"Hm."

"It seems, you don't have a problem huh, being in a place like this?'' ask Hamdan.

"Hmmm .. because I'm used to it. So .. I have no problem with me. Wherever it is, I can adapt to places and circumstances. No need to worry, ", El explained.

"Varo, what about you?" ask El.

"No, you're not El. Two years, for me it's quite a long time" replied Varo.

"Yes, how else would Varo, the reality is like that. But I was sincere, said El.

"We should eat first, from earlier we just chat. The time of food is in the wine and only a display, Hamdan chirped.

Twenty minutes later after they finished eating together, they seemed to relax for a moment while continuing to chat.

Tara, who was sitting next to El, occasionally ruffled her hair.

"Tara, why don't you invite aunt Karin and Daniel?'' ask El.

Tara just shook her head and stroked her fingers.

"Because today I and they want to spend our time together. This is especially the first time they have visited you. They already know if you're on this shelf. So, sometime if they want to come here no problem," explained Tara.

"Thank you, Tara. You have helped me a lot. How can I repay you later, said El.

"El, we go first, we'll see you sometime. Patient ones, El. We believe you are a strong woman" Hamdan said on behalf of his friends.

El hugged them one by one before leaving her. Until he and Tara are left.

"El, it feels like if it's like this, it feels heavy to want to leave you, I'm Tara while looking at her.

"It's okay Tara. You come to see me, it's enough to make me happy" said El.

"Close .. I want to hold you, '' Tara asked and pulled her into her arms.

"Tara, '' whispered El in a choked voice.

"Please .. no tears. Please, '' whispered Tara while peeping the old top of her head.

After taking off his embrace, El stroked the man's firm jaw and took it off.

"El, I say yes, Tara's permission.

Inevitably El simply nodded with a sad feeling.
