It's been two weeks since the incident at the tournament, Elsa and Nathan haven't seen each other until now.
***
Today, Nathan goes to the shoe store where he once promised to take Elsa's shoes. He was really late from the promised day because the money had just been raised to get Elsa's shoes. Regardless of whether Elsa will accept it or not, she still wants to buy the nude pink flatshoes. Nathan headed straight for the cashier with hope that the shoes would still be stored. He showed a photo of his shoes, perhaps the cashier had forgotten about the deposit, which had been two weeks.
The cashier nodded and took his shoes. Apparently the cashier also did not until the heart put back on the shelf. He also believes Nathan will buy it maybe a bit late. Nathan is so happy to find Elsa's shoes still in the order room. Nathan unceasingly thanked the cashier. He immediately paid for the beautiful shoes and took them home.
Arriving at the restaurant, Nathan headed for the room immediately. Wulan who saw Nathan passing through started to wonder. Where the hell is that kid from? How do you look so happy? Wulan wanted to ask a lot of questions. He's headed for Nathan's room which is still partially open.
"Well, it's so pretty." Wulan's eyes were so shocked to see Nathan about to put the shoes in the gift box. He asked Nathan to touch his shoes for a moment. Wulan was so amazed to see those nude pink flatshoes. Her legs must be tiny, Inner Wulan.
"Ehem, mama's son is in love. Lately, the spirit of his work. Apparently want to buy a gift for the beloved." ledek Wulan who successfully made Nathan did not stop smiling. "Why didn't Nathan tell you about Nathan's girl to Mama?" asked Wulan while rubbing Nathan's hair.
"Nathan is also confused about where to tell" Nathan said as he put the shoes into the gift box. "Lho is confused. Just say Nathan is in love again just wear confused" said Wulan.
Nathan looked into Wulan's eyes deeply. He wanted to tell his mother a lot. "Nathan fell in love with Elsa, ma. But Nathan doesn't know anything about Elsa. Nathan doesn't know what Elsa likes, what she hates. Nathan also doesn't know his home address, his wa number, everything. Nathan doesn't know if Elsa loves Nathan, either. Nathan only knows that if near Elsa Nathan feels very comfortable, Nathan wants to take care of her, make himself laugh even Nathan is willing to do anything for Elsa." he poured.
"Hmmmmm. So her name is Elsa. Nathan can tell where his shoe number is?" ask Wulan with a smile.
"Pas Diklat he left his shoes in the river. So Nathan saw his shoe number."
"Don't Nathan want to buy shoes?"
"Nathan felt these shoes fit on Elsa's feet. That's why Nathan bought it."
"Ooh so. Nathan's confused about Elsa?"
"It's been two weeks since Nathan didn't see Elsa. Nathan misses Elsa, but Nathan doesn't know where Elsa is."
"Hmmmmm. Buy those pretty shoes to treat the longing turns out." Wulan said deciphering Nathan's confusion. Nathan said his mother's words. It's true that Elsa's shoes slightly treat her longing.
"If Nathan is confused about something, listen to Nathan's conscience. He'll definitely give you an answer."
"Romani?"
"Yes. People say conscience is a clear heart. He will lead you to victory even though he sometimes seems to lose in front of people. He who will give happiness even though it sometimes seems painful in front of people." explained Wulan gently.
"Nathan, there is no man without a conscience. Conscience is sincere and will never be wrong. Unfortunately, many people ignore. Mom's message, Nathan just needs to follow a conscience. And don't force people to follow conscience, but stick to Nathan's conscience. Nathan will find his way and Nathan will never lose or fail."
"Nathan, if Nathan doesn't know how to meet Elsa anymore, don't worry. Sometimes a bond will find its own way. Probably because of the power of love." Wulan rubbed Nathan's hair finely.
It was hard to understand what her mother had said. Wulan again explained, "Today Nathan has followed his heart. Nathan bought Elsa's pretty shoes. What did Nathan feel after getting Elsa's shoes?"
"Victory." Nathan said immediately then confused. He did feel a victory that did not know where it came from after buying Elsa shoes.
"Would Nathan be so disappointed if Elsa refused these shoes?"
Nathan thought for a moment. She shook her head. The more Wulan explained, there were new feelings that Nathan did not understand. But he began to realize about the word of heart or conscience conveyed by his mother.
Wulan hugged her son proudly. He had just seen his own son following his heart. Although others will see this behavior like a child, but believe me a child is always happy to get something even simple.
"If Nathan really loves Elsa, stay with Nathan. It won't hurt anyone. So too if Elsa loves Nathan. Don't tell Elsa to turn into something she's not. Invite him to follow his conscience." Wulan messages as he hugs Nathan then leaves his own son in the room.
Wulan's words hold a special spirit for Nathan. It was as if Elsa loved him too. Nathan has no doubt that he loves Elsa. He'll meet Elsa and tell her all his feelings. He won't force his feelings on Elsa either. He enjoys this love without expecting anything from Elsa.
Although Nathan doesn't know anything about Elsa, now Nathan is just waiting for love to show him the way. Nathan looked at Elsa's shoes again before he stuffed them into the gift box. Nathan smiled. True mama, these shoes became a cure for longing Nathan to Elsa who had not met him for two weeks.
Nathan put his shoes in a gift box and put them in the cupboard. Nathan moved out of his room and began his activities in the restaurant. She wore an apron to wash dishes and other kitchen furniture. Today visitors also began to get crowded because of the weekend. The portion of the pile is also more than the previous days. Even so, he was eager to do everything.
Wulan smiled seeing Nathan happily living his days with renewed vigor. Wulan was also busy with preparing food ingredients according to the menu list of orders that never stopped coming. He's not as passionate as Nathan. Someone once said, life feels more meaningful if you listen to your heart.
