Happy reading ...
——————————
Tika POVs.
The happiness I feel today is so complete, with Lisa realizing some of my dreams as a child. Many times I thanked him. Many times I hugged him while enjoying this mill called the London Eye.
If for others who are here, maybe they prefer to enjoy it with a partner. But I prefer to ride it along with Lisa. Not only because of the man I knew in this city, but because I considered him my brother.
I want to spend my day with her until old age. Gathering together with our own children. Seeing beauty and feeling happiness with her. Isn't that fun? Especially if you share happiness.
The day was getting late, the wind was blowing so fast. Lisa invited me to get off the wheel and decided to go somewhere to fill our empty stomachs.
Chirping. It used to be as if there was no end to both of us time to do this much. However, at the moment we feel the time available is very little and passes so quickly. Suddenly the sound of my phone rang.
🎶
You so fuckin' precious when you smile
Hit it from the back and drive you wild
Girl, I lose myself up in those eyes
I just had to let you know you're mine
🎶
Max's name was on the screen, making me afraid to answer. Afraid that if Max says that, it's time for us to go home. But all of a sudden Lisa grabbed my phone and took the call. “Hallo?”
Lisa staring. “Tika again to the toilet, we are eating, soon to go home. Yes alright.” Then she took off my phone that was attached to her ear and returned it to me.
“What says Max?”
Then Lisa said that Max asked us to come home as soon as our dinner was over, and then my heart started beating so fast. There was this feeling of disappointment in my heart towards Max, but on one hand, I could also understand it which was uncomfortable as I forced him to stay at Lisa's apartment.
After that, Lisa and I no longer talked to each other, we dissolved in each other's thoughts while enjoying the rest of the dinner served on our table. Similarly, on the way home, the phone call from Max really made my heart not care.
“You bought ice cream first no?” bargain Lisa who I quickly reply with a headband.
From now on, my eyes only looked at the buildings on the edge of the road and heavy breathing I always did. Usually, I only need one puff to release this burden of heart, but this time it seems like that way is not enough.
“Trus direct home?” ask Lisa again which I answered this time with a nod of the head. “Yes already, bring bristles gih. Ntar kalo nyampe gua bangunin.” I nodded my head after Lisa said that.

Lisa POVS.
'Max is really outrageous, ' my inner self.
Tika started to close her eyes, as soon as I put the music on the audio of this car. Then I refocused on driving towards the apartment. It took about 10–15 minutes to get there from where we are now.
Arriving there, I saw Max smoking and leaning against the door of his car. And suddenly my thoughts about the previous night came back.
Does he want to go home because I'm cold to him? Or was he uncomfortable with my response yesterday and decided to finish the task here immediately?
I turned off the engine and got out of the car and walked up to it. “What's so ask us quickly go home?” I ventured to talk to him.
Max threw away his gaze, he didn't want to look at me for too long. Might as well. “Tika why is it? You guys had a drink?”
His firm tone of voice made me tremble. “She just overslept. Maybe tired all day I took him around.”
Max stepped towards my car and opened the door on Tika's side. “I can ask for help?” Then he looked at me.
“What?”
“You mean?”
Max took a breath and stood facing me. “My business is done, so tomorrow morning we will go home.”
I was flabbergasted to hear it, surprised Max said that line. All happened. Max completely granted Tika's fear for a full day.
“But Tika ... there are still many places she wants to visit.” I raised my voice an octave.
“There's plenty of other time if he wants to come back here. What is clear is that at this time I have to bring her home with me, because I have promised mama.” Max's tone was normal, but the way he put it together really made me feel bitter.
“Let him sleep here tonight, I need a friend. At least just for tonight.” I bowed my head, no longer did I stare at those two Max eyeballs that I felt were so deadly.
There was a heavy sigh, just as Tika often did. Exhaling roughly, as a sign of his saturation. Pretty heavy and loud.
There was no longer any debate between the two of us. Max didn't answer my request to her either. He just lifted up his sister and closed the door of my car with one of his legs. I saw her stepping into the elevator, which meant that she allowed Tika to sleep with me tonight. I immediately followed him, pressing the elevator button.
Max threw his sister over my bed in the room, after I opened the door to the apartment and also the door to my room. This eye glanced at the television room, looking for a bag that he had brought yesterday, but it was like it was no more. The television room was clean and tidy. Did Max have his bag with him this morning?
“I'll pick him up at seven in the morning. So please make sure he is ready because I don't want to wait,” he said firmly as it passed.
“Why sleep in a hotel if only for tonight? I don't mind you sleeping here,” my chirps without turning my body to face it.
“I'm the objection.” Not long after, there was the sound of my apartment door opening and closing again.
Blam it!!
My eyes looked at Tika who was sound asleep. I don't know why this time my heart again felt pain, as Max said the sentence earlier. His erratic attitude can always be misinterpreted.
Bullshit if I say, I can forget about it just because there's Dave in his place. We assume that what happened between us did not exist. Many times I have refused to admit it all. However, why does this heart feel sliced back? Bemoan.
I decided to step onto the balcony after picking up my cigarette box. Then close the door. I lit a cigarette while watching the street below. Then Max's car passed quickly, leaving the building to disappear at the end of the road.
Is it possible, inwardly this still holds a little place for him? I took my breath back slowly. Then suddenly the balcony door opened, making me turn my head quickly and find Tika standing behind it.
“Mana Max?”
“He still has business and he said tomorrow morning you guys go home. At seven he picked up and you should be ready.”
“What? Seriously home?” Tika approached me while taking a cigarette and igniting it.
“He said that. You've been satisfied dong all day?”
“Mayan. But still ngeselin. If only for a day two days, why ngajakin here try.” Tika exhaled her cigarette smoke.
I looked at him in wonder. “Ngajakin?”
“Ho'oh, he's not sure to come here, he said as long as he takes care of his work, the cave can hangout equally you. But if you're just wondering, really, right?”
'Why is Max like that?' my thinking.
