Almera's Gigolo

16. I love you too much.

at 7pm I arrived at the cafe where we made the appointment this afternoon

the atmosphere there, quite quiet maybe because it is not wekend there are only a few people including myself who are there.

I sent a message to Almera informing her that I had arrived at the place where we had agreed.

"i've been cafe'

there was no reply, maybe he was still on the road I thought, waiting for me to order a cup of coffee to accompany me.

there was a message notification in my heart, I think from Almera it turned out from mbak selvi gave a work schedule for the next week which was quite solid profit only filming in the area in the city, I think so still able to meet Almera.

for over an hour I waited for him but there was no sign of his arrival, I started to restlessly sit in the cafe, I stood up to leave the place, it seemed like Almera would not come maybe he changed his mind again I thought.

"sorry, Alex" in a hurry he entered the cafe.

"are you okay, Mer"tanyaku while welcoming his arrival.

"yes, there was an impromptu meeting with Mr. Ronald" he replied as he sat in front of me.

I wave my hand to call the waiter.

"you've eaten" I bargained when I saw the waiter coming over to us.

"yes, just give me a capucino"

I said the order to the waiter in front of me.

"maybe, the next few days I can't see you"

"why"

" i'll be busy taking care of the project with Mr. Ronald.

"yes, it doesn't matter if you have time to call me" I tried to speak calmly, although I was a little disappointed that I couldn't see him often.

"yes, I'll call you when I'm done"

well although there has been no definite progress, but it seems Almera has started to accept my presence.

long enough we both sat in the cafe, until I saw him getting sleepy.

"let's take you home" I said, pulling his hand out of the cafe.

"don't let me go home alone"

"come on, you look really tired" I said as I led him out to his car.

"but Alex"

"i'll just take you to the door, then go home" I took the key from Almera's hand.

actually the distance of the cafe to the apartment unit where Almera lives is not far only about 500 meters but seeing the condition that looks tired makes me not have the heart.

even when we got to the parking lot of the apartment he had already started to fall asleep.

I lifted her body up to go back to her apartment.

"Alex"

"sleep" I said, putting his body on the bed.

he fell asleep immediately, it seems like today was really very tiring for him.

I covered her body with a blanket, then I dimmed the room lights so that Almera did not wake up, really like a baby, I muttered.'good night my sunset'my eyes while peeling her forehead then out of there.

*********

I woke up at 5.40 wib I stretched my body to be more relaxed.

very good sleep last night I thought, I saw my surroundings look quiet, it turns out Alex really just drove me home my mind.

soon I got up from the bed to the bathroom, to clean myself up.

I fell asleep without changing clothes, I muttered.

an hour later I was ready to go to the office, I checked my phone to check important messages sent to my phone, I saw some messages from Anggela telling me my schedule today,and there was a message from Alex that he sent this morning.

'Almer you're already well, if I don't just want to tell you, today I'm shooting until tonight so can't see you today, later tonight I'll call you when it's finished filming'the message.

I exhaled after reading Alex's message, I don't know how to deal with his attention.

from that day on Alex always texted me and sometimes he called me, but not once has he come to see me.

To be honest I really liked his attention, his gentle demeanor that made me feel so loved but it was too difficult for me to be able to give my heart away.

There are too many differences between us and I still feel like we're two strangers who don't know each other.

There's a lot I don't know about him and it makes me feel like there's a distance between us.

but sometimes I miss her, miss her touch miss her being near me, like this morning I was so uninspired to do my job at the office.

"Mer you're okay"

"em yeah, I'm not papa, what's our schedule for today" I said trying to look good in front of Anggela.

"there were meetings with investors from America, meetings with the financial section" and there are still many agendas Anggela mentioned for today.

until 7pm I just got out of the office but there's still a lot of unfinished work.

"i'll bring the unfinished files home" I told Anggela, telling her to clean up the files to put them in the car.

"Mer I think you're too busy working this end, you should also pay attention to your health"

"don't worry, I'm fine" I said as I passed to get in the car.

"don't forget tomorrow's meeting with Mr. Ronald you"

"just calm down, I'll handle it"

"ok," I said as I drove my car home leaving Anggela.

until at the apartment I immediately returned to continue my work that piled up, I only had time to shower and change clothes to make it more comfortable.

suddenly my phone rang I was a bit surprised it turned out to be quite late, I thought I saw a message from Alex made me a little relieved, I smiled when reading a message from him.

'Almer you're asleep'

I immediately put down the file I was checking to reply to a message from Alex.

'I'm not still working yet, so soon I send you a picture of the file I'm working on.

'this is the night why you're still busy'

'i have to finish this as soon as possible, you're done filming'

'yes it has been since, and now I miss you a lot'

I smiled reading the message, I felt like I wanted to be a little ignorant to her.

'i miss you too, miss your hugs and kisses, I want you to come now, ' I replied, smiling mischievously as I wrote.

I know you definitely can't come now, whispered me with a happy expression.

'may I come now'reply

' yes I'm waiting for you' I answer the more happy I am to judge Alex.

'wait ya'return

'yes, come'return me again.

after the message Alex stopped texting me, so he had to go back to filming I thought, I then continued to check the files that had been delayed earlier.

for almost an hour I continued my work, after feeling unable to do it again, I intended to sleep.

But I just laid my body in my cell phone bed, Alex called.

With a sleepy tone I answered his call.

"hem" I said, closing my eyes.

"you're asleep"

"almost,why"

"may I come in"

"where"

"to your apartment, now"

"what..!"I answered immediately waking up from the bed.💜💜
