Conquering Husband

Chapter 24 The Arrival of Mark

Sabrina began to return to her previous activities, she began to go to her florist. Caty and Paul greet her with a twinkle in their eyes.

"Oh .. my boss, I miss you so," said Caty who was flabbergasted and immediately hugged Sabrina when she saw the woman coming.

"I miss you, Young Miss," Caty repeated.

"I miss you and this shop too" Sabrina replied.

They continue to hold each other, channeling longing because long time no see. "You have to tell me a lot about your holiday experience. No one should be missed one bit, because I took it in return for helping you hide from your husband" Caty said, still hugging Sabrina.

Hearing Caty's last words made Sabrina break her arms and look at the employee and her friend for a moment, before Sabrina laughed and hugged Caty again. Sabrina knew exactly the story, how hard it was to lie to Fabian, until the man made a fuss in the store.

Paul cleared his throat very loudly, deliberately to resuscitate these two women, if there was anyone other than the two of them. "Do you remember if I was still alive?" the candlestick but with a sulking tone.

Sabrina and Caty broke their arms back and together looked at Paul who was also staring at the two women. Without saying much more Sabrina and Caty spread their arms wide, gesturing for Paul to enter in their longing arms.

"Aaaaaa ...," they shouted together. There was nothing Sabrina could have ever imagined if she would have friends like Caty and Paul. No, not just friends, but Sabrina already thinks they're like brothers.

Their hands are tied to each other through their shoulders. Sabrina embraces Caty and Paul's shoulders, while Caty lays her hands around Sabrina and Paul's shoulders, so did Paul who carried the two women in his arms through the hands he connected to the shoulders of Sabrina and Caty. They kept laughing until someone opened the florist door all of a sudden.

"Oh .. I'm sorry, I don't know if you're not ready yet?" said the man.

Sabrina, caty, and Paul simultaneously stared at the man who had just entered, as they let go of the interconnected hands.

"Ah .. no-no, we're ready," Caty replied quickly, with a sense of awkwardness so felt in his sentence.

Caty never wants to miss a single customer and should not disappoint a customer. Even if they have just set up their store while cleaning and at that time there are customers coming, Caty will be happy to serve immediately.

"Please come in Sir, and pick the flowers you want?" bargain Caty friendly.

"Mark?" greet Sabrina, interject.

"Hey?" Mark waved his left hand at Sabrina.

Paul and Caty both look at Sabrina who turns out to know this man. Feeling stared at with questions by her two friends, Sabrina said, "He is Mark, Mark Antonsen. He subscribes to flowers on us every day to be sent to the Royal Apartment" explained Sabrina.

"You prepare it every day and Paul delivers the flowers." Sabrina hits Paul's arm and stares at Caty.

They seemed to have only come to their senses after hearing Sabrina's explanation. All this time only Sabrina knew about Mark, because the first time the man came with his girlfriend to his florist, Caty and Paul were outside. For the first time Mark bought a bouquet of roses favorite of his girlfriend named Cassandra. Since then Mark ordered flowers and asked her to send him a bouquet of flowers every day and a hundred red rose stalks every once a month right on their date—Mark and Cassandra—.

Mark who lives in a different city can not pay attention except through the flowers he sent. he only wants his lover always feel he exists even though they are separated. Oh ... very lucky Cassandra has a lover like Mark, and Cassandra's luck is also good luck for Sabrina's florist. Mark has been a regular customer for the past three months. The man also never paid for his order via transfer, because he could not come to the store. From the first day Mark came to the store, only once did this man stop by while visiting his girlfriend in this city and come to the florist to thank Sabrina for contributing to his love affair.

"Do you need anything, Mark?" ask Sabrina.

"No, I just wanted to thank you for helping me, but it's a pity that I had to stop my order. You know, don't you?" Mark reminds Sabrina of his meeting with Mark that morning, when this man says that his relationship with his girlfriend is over.

"I know, and I'm sorry about that" replied Sabrina. "Is that all?"

Mark nodded.

"I'm not bothered, I honestly have other goals to come here" Mark replied.

Sabrina looked questioningly at Mark. "What's wrong?"

"I've just moved to this city, the company I work for is based in Sydney and I've got a promotion to run my job in this city. I don't know anyone in this town, so when I met you at the mini market I was very happy, because after Cassandra you were the only one I knew in town. I'd like to invite you to celebrate my rise in office. That's also if you don't mind" Mark explained.

Sabrina looked at Caty and Paul, hesitating to answer this man's invitation. Mark who was aware of Sabrina's doubts immediately said, "You two can also come, we will celebrate together, how?"

Caty and Paul asked each other through the look in their eyes, a second later Paul shouted, "Yeaaa .. Of course we agree, there is no invitation to eat that we will refuse." Paul pulled his eyebrows down on Caty.

"Paul's right, we won't refuse" Caty said.

Mark smiled looking at the three happy looking people in front of him. "Well I'll pick you up at 7, how?"

"Ok" replied Caty.

"No problem" Paul replied.

While Sabrina just nodded and smiled in response to the agreement. A smile so beautiful in Mark's eyes, that he was glued to focus his eyes there.

"Is there anything else?" sabrina asked Mark who was still silent in his place.

"Oh, no .. That's all, '" Mark replied awkwardly. Mark was completely misbehaving himself just because he saw Sabrina smiling towards him.

"Well, I'll see you at seven" Sabrina said.

"O-ok .. see you later." Mark seems confused as to what to do. Plus as Sabrina frowned trying to ask.

"I'll say goodbye, see you." Mark would walk to his left side, but Sabrina indicated that the exit was behind him with her hands. Mark turned around, so confused.

Sabrina and her two friends laughed at Mark.

"You're going the wrong way, man" cried Paul.

"It will take you," cried Sabrina.

Finally Sabrina walked first and opened the door for Mark.

"Sorry troublesome, but thanks to all," Mark said at the florist's doorstep.

"Not to be so sad."

"Bye ...." Mark walked to his parked car not far from the store.

Sabrina replied by waving her hand at Mark. He was just about to enter after seeing Mark had run his car, but his steps stopped and he turned his head because he felt someone was watching him.

There was no one around, Sabrina brushed off the feeling and went back inside.
