Come A Closer Love's

In the afternoon, when Erwin's motorbike arrived in front of the store dr. Dessert was spotted by Marwah, a man dressed in all black this morning, who was still there.
When he handed the helmet to Erwin, Marwah Trus' gaze looked at the motion of the black-clothed man suspiciously.
" Marwah??, what do you see?" asked Erwin.
" ah, that's my mom, this morning I'm still there?,"
Erwin reflex looked at Marwah's serious gaze looking at the man. But a second later Erwin ignored the figure casually.
" let it be," he said, wanting to wear a helmet on his head.
" so how?? who's that father? why is he still there??" asked Marwah bertubi with curiosity.
Erwin a little beard, for now he can not think because too tired with the series of events earlier. With a sigh of fatigue, he answered briefly Marwah's question.
" just the guards" Erwin replied.
" huh?" said Marwah in shock. And Erwin looks careless by reaching for a mobile phone from behind his pocket that vibrates, and it turns out an email from Johan that sent some important files.
" It is, let's go in there, you have to leave immediately" Erwin said with a little firm on Marwah.
Marwah looks a little surprised by Erwin's sudden assertive nature. But he still could not let Erwin go by leaving a half-measure explanation on him and quickly held Erwin's arm as if holding back.
" what do you mean guards??, Marwah does not need any guards, mas do not worry too much, Marwah can take care of himself," he explained staring at Erwin.
But the look in Erwin's eyes turned cold instantly, so Marwah took aim.
" what you have done, it's the best," he said sharply staring at Marwah who was fixated on Erwin's tone that firmly protected him.
Doubtfully Marwah pulled her hand from Erwin's arm. And immediately Erwin propelled his motor by leaving Marwah who was still glued.
🍃🍃🍃
In his room Marwah was silent, pensive with a whipping mind.
For a moment he remembered Erwin's words.
" guard," muttered the inner Marwah. Then he reflexively got up from his bed and headed to the window of the room with a little grabbing the curtain of the window curtain while revealing it a little. Then he tried to find a figure dressed in black.
And true, the figure of a man dressed in black who was complete with a hat was seen casually sitting near a small stall with a breath of cigarette smoke in his hand.
Without a second thought, Marwah walked out of her room to go downstairs. Salwa was greeting.
" bak Marwah??" said Salwa.
" just a minute" interrupted Marwah by walking quickly to the shop door to get out. And walked decisively towards the man in black this morning.
Although a little hesitant, but he was sure of the face of the man who had met Erwin this morning.
" excuse me" cried Marwah slowly.
And the black-clothed man was unmoved with a shocked face. Marwah looked on with a slight smile.
" this morning I met with Erwin's mas right?" asked Marwah seriously.
The black-clothed man also reflexively woke up with a riled face.
" no papa, I just make sure, that I turned out to be a guard," said Marwah friendly.
The man was a little worried.
" sorry miss," he said hesitatingly with a slight bow.
" no papa,"
" can I talk to my dad?? in my shop,"
The man in black was a little hesitant.
" i'll keep it a secret from Erwin's mas,"
" well miss," he said slowly.
Marwah smiled slightly, then slowly turned around and walked towards the dr. Dessert was followed by the man in black behind her.
Once inside the store, Marwah allowed the man dressed in black to sit in his mini cafe.
" want some coffee??,"
" no" the man refused.
Marwah.
" then I order you a warm moccacino" he said, calling a waiter and ordering a warm moccacino and a slice of red velvet cake.
The man in black clothes looked a little anxious.
" i'm sorry, can I tell since when you were here?" asked Marwah.
" nearly 1 month," replied the man briefly.
Marwah.
" for what?,"
The man slightly avoided looking at Marwah's face, and chose silence.
Marwah slightly racked her brain to get the secret info from this black-clothed man.
" so apparently, " said Marwah a little disappointed because he did not get information from this dressed man who chose to be silent a thousand words.
" can I ask for one thing, "ask Marwah seriously.
The man looked back at Marwah.
" i feel like a heartless person seeing you for hours guarding the yard, so I thought it would be better to keep in my shop alone, it's much more humane in my opinion " marwah
The black-clothed man was astonished to hear Marwah's request.
" honestly, I don't need a guard, because I can take care of myself" Marwah said slowly.
The dressed man sympathized with Marwah's sincere-sounding words. Only the first time the client he kept so sympathetic with himself was only a messenger and executioner.
" mister is worried about your safety miss" said the man heavily divulging his job info as he pulled out a photo sheet in front of the flustered Marwah.
" i was ordered to keep the lady from this dangerous man" he explained.
Marwah was shocked when she saw a photo of Toni in front of her.
" just a while ago, you got a mysterious package and got a photo of the lady with a red stain" he explained again with a flat face.
Marwah heard with a face of shock seen there.
" red stain??" she whispered.
" a few days back I watched from a close distance, because this man was seen twice entering your store, miss, but from my perspective he did not meet you,"
" just.., last week I was off guard, without suspecting this man managed to meet the lady in the afternoon, I could not act blatantly because the condition of the lady's shop was crowded, she said, and it looks like he is just talking to the lady, "he explained again.
Marwah recalled last week's incident when she first met Toni.
The black-clothed man looked anxiously at Marwah who looked speechless.
" sorry miss, if my presence is unsettling miss," he said humbled.
Marwah.
" ah, I'm not the one who should be grateful to you sir, thank you for taking care of me," said Marwah slowly.
" Mister, really worried about your safety, miss," he said again with a serious face.
Marwah was determined, and her heart seemed to want to hug Erwin at this moment. Erwin's shadow was clearly imagined in Marwah's mind, how this man was so worried about his safety.
And before long, a shopkeeper came by with the order that Marwah had requested. Then Marwah gave a moccacino cup and a piece of red Velvet cake in front of the black-clothed man who was a little awkwardly entertained by Marwah.
" please drink sir, and this is a premium cake in this store," said Marwah friendly.
" thank you, lady" he said.
" how?? do you want to move to keep in my shop??" asked Marwah back.
The man in black was a little hesitant.
" let me give an explanation to Erwin mas later," said Marwah reassured the black-clothed man who was still thinking.
" but..," he said disconnected.
Marwah looked up at the decision of the man in black.
" i'm not alone miss, if my night is awaited by my friend,"
Marwah.
" so there's a guard at night??" asked Marwah in disbelief.
The man hesitated.
Marwah was glaring in disbelief. Then he took a long breath.
" well, "
" my friend is always standing guard in front of your store, miss," she continued.
" oh so, well," said Marwah back.
🍃🍃🍃
In the evening, Marwah busied himself with the ingredients of the cake. But this time his heart was restless, seen many times Marwah looked at his cellphone that did not receive any notifications.
He missed Erwin. For some reason after hearing the explanation of the man dressed in all black, Marwah so slightly regretted because of the worry of Erwin.
" where is Erwin?" he muttered, standing in front of the oven, looking at the spartac layers.
Right at 12 pm, Marwah who will sleep was made restless by staring at his cellphone. He hesitantly tried calling Erwin's phone.
He waited with a huff of the connecting tone to be immediately lifted Erwin. But it does not seem to have received an answer from Erwin.
Marwah sighed furiously by biting her anxious lower lip.
" is Erwin offended?" he said again.
Tired of making premium cake plus the struggle of his heart that was anxious waiting for news from Erwin until finally Marwah fell asleep with a heart riled.
🍃🍃🍃
Faintly, Marwah pushed a door that blocked his steps. The door slowly opened wide with the sunlight hitting him. At first glance a smile develops to see the beautiful view of the rooftop that welcomes it with a beautiful view.
Marwah walked slowly by enjoying the beautiful scenery. And his eyes stopped on the figure he was looking for. Erwin looked around with a distant face.
" mas," called Marwah as he walked closer to Erwin who was seen welcoming the presence of Marwah with a warm smile.
And Erwin stretched out his hand to Marwah, Marwah was seen welcoming Erwin's hand with a face of smile unfolded, so that now Marwah stood side by side Erwin.
" why all of a sudden here??" asked Marwah, looking at the scene ahead.
Silent
Silent
" i don't know, I miss this place" he replied as he went on a national mission.
" mas, miss daddy," he continued.
Deg.., Marwah's heart pounded to hear Erwin's deep words, so Marwah reflexively turned to look at Erwin's face that looked sad.
" right now I really miss my dad" he said again.
But out of nowhere came, suddenly a black shadow approached from the side of Marwah and lightning fast pierced Erwin's chest in front of Marwah's two shocked eyes.
Zziying, Jleb.., a knife struck Erwin's chest with blood coming out of the blade.
Erwin who gasped with the stab was immediately dumbfounded and tried to hold on to Marwah who was stunned.
" ahhh..," a sigh of pain Erwin slowly collapsed before Marwah who was not strong enough to hold Erwin's body.
Bruk.., Erwin's body fell down in front of Marwah with fresh blood continuing to flow from Erwin's heart.
Marwah who was struck by severe shock instantly got her body shaking violently.
" ma.mas," said vibrating by falling in front of Erwin's body and seen slowly both Erwin's eyes closed weakly.
" eng.., en.., enggak.., " said Marwah, with tears falling as her hands trembled holding Erwin's body.
" ma.., ma.as..," he said desperately trying to shake Erwin's immobile body.
" to.., tolooong.., anyone, please mas Erwin" said Marwah who immediately hoarse voice because of heavy shock saw Erwin's body did not move again.
" mas.., maassss..," he cried frustrated with tears he tried to wake Erwin.
" mas., mass, wake..," cried Marwah frustrated.
" no..? don't go. maaasss..?" confusion and frustration saw Erwin not move with his blood that kept coming out.
Suddenly Marwah gasped awake with sweat all over her body and her heart skipped a beat.
Marwah awoke with a hunting breath, as if she had just seen a terrible event. He quickly felt his chest beating fast.
He felt his tears fall.
" just a dream" he said slowly by swallowing his saliva.
Then he tried to control himself from the fear of his dreams. And he accidentally touched his cell phone that was on the bed. So that makes Marwah reach for the phone immediately by checking the phone screen.
And how shocked Marwah was, it turned out that Erwin called himself with three missed calls. I don't know why the three missed calls a little make Marwah's heart relieved and then check the clock on his cellphone which turned out to be at 5 am.
Slowly Marwah woke up, with a slight stagger. And felt his head hurt a little. But he ignored it by hurrying to the bathroom to get ready to take a shower and then get ready to make ⁇ oti for sale at the dr. Desserts.
🍃🍃🍃
Around 7 am, Marwah tried to call Erwin hoping Erwin would not be upset again.
And as in the hope of Marwah, the connecting tone was connected with Erwin.
" hello mas, "greet Marwah in a happy tone.
" yes," said Erwin with a heavy voice, so that the hope of Marwah was dashed.
" ah, why??, what is the pain??" asked Marwah immediately worried.
" no," answered Erwin slowly.
A moment of silence between the two that makes Marwah anxious.
" Marwah??,"
" yes,"
" i'm sorry, this morning I may not be able to pick you up" Erwin explained
" oh, yes," answered Marwah quickly by looking at the spartak cake she had prepared last night for Erwin.
" i'm sorry, this morning my uncle came to the office" he explained.
" ah, yes no papa," replied Marwah a little disappointed.
" we meet at the office only," continued Marwah.
" hhmm," murmured Erwin who looked uninspired as usual.
And the communication was cut off just like that by leaving a sense of anger in the heart of Marwah.
Both eyes Marwah also look at the cake spartaknya with sadness.
" must take you to the office, to apologize to Erwin," he murmured himself in front of the cake spartak.
