I swear by anything, when Dion contacted Lily a week ago, the girl miraculously regained her lost cheer. The new fact is Lily misses Dion. Waiting for Dion's return with a smile of encouragement.
As most people say, waiting is the most boring thing. The days felt long, time was like a road in place, the earth seemed to deliberately spin longer, leaving Lily to die from waiting.
At the same time, on the same day, and in the same place, Lily was waiting for a call from someone. Repeatedly pressing the on off button, staring at the phone screen, confirmed the time that it was at this hour that Dion called him a week ago.
He didn't watch drakor or dracin. Because even though the laptop that contains most romantic dramas is turned on, it still focuses.
Waiting and waiting. Sitting, standing, pacing already he did. The waiting one never called. Starting to be frustrated because it has been two hours of focus shifted on hp but did not produce results.
*Lily, what did you expect? Waiting for your husband to call? Realize, he doesn't love you.
Let it. Wishing to be loved by your own husband is not a sin, right?
You are inconsistent. Who are you expecting his love for? Noel or your stiff husband? Not to mention Axel. You're the one who makes your feelings complicated.
Hey brain, shut up! Don't make me more in a dilemma. You should have given me a clue to finding my true love.
Cih, a snot like you is talking about true love? All right, since I'm good then I'll say something important. Finding true love does not need clues, it just needs to use instinct. Wear that instinct at the bottom of your heart!
I don't think I found the instinct you meant.
Then you're not human. Never mind, I'm leaving!
Hey, hold on. Help me find him. Hey... . Aaa*!
Lily is at war with her mind. Gently massage the temples and close the eyes. After a long time with the activity, now both hands moved to chew on the cheeks, with lips reddened. By doing so his lips were like the mouth of a living fish that was open and closed. Believe me, she is so cute with her silly behavior.
Not until there, he got up and walked to the flower whose stem was thorny, rose. He picked up the pink flower and took it to where he was sitting. He kissed the flower for a long time and enjoyed the smell of its fragrance.
Slowly he began to drop the petals by pulling them one by one and saying, “he loves me, he does not love me. He loves me, he doesn't love me. He loves me, he doesn't love me.” And so on until the petals completely fall in turns.
“He doesn't love me.” That was the answer the last flower petal she pulled. His face was moody, “does he really not love me? Can't I hope that she'll love me?” muttered.
Unconsciously papa approached. Looking at the petals of flowers falling at his daughter's feet. Never have you seen Lily do such a ridiculous thing.
“Lily!” Unheard, still drowning in his reverie. Without making another sound, papa touched the shoulder of the tee shirt girl.
“Papa!” He jerks.
“You're daydreaming what?” In a curious tone, papa sat beside him. Watching that gloomy face. “Why?”
Lily shook her head, indicating that there was nothing. “Haha, what should I daydream about, Pa? Papa why not leave?” Switching conversations.
Papa knows there's something Lily's been hiding from him. “When will Dion go home?”
Lily was flabbergasted, how could her papa guess correctly what kind of thing she thought. Quickly conditioned his pounding heart. “Two weeks away, Pa.” He's bowed.
“You missed him?”
“Haha, why do I miss him, Pa.”
Mouth said another, but Lily's reddened face already answered that it was true. Papa smiled looking at Lily who was wrong.
Papa brought his lips closer to Lily's ear and whispered, “Papa is sure there will be love between you.”
Papa stands, “ayo help Papa deliver the goods. Mr. Seto is not feeling well.”
“Iya, Pa.”

After dropping off the goods, Lily noticed a small child and a man sitting in front of the store.
“Kak Lily.” The little boy got up from his seat and ran and hugged Lily's waist.
“Cia.” Lily let the little girl hold her for a moment. Seeing her papa Cia who also stood up. The man just kept quiet. Lily did not see a super fierce grandmother with them.
“Sister, Cia kangen Sis Lily.” The little girl raised her head for a while looking at Lily's face, again hugged and drowned her face in Lily's stomach.
“Who, Ly?” ask the man who was standing next to her.
“Oh, this is Pa. Our customer.”
The man advanced near papa and introduced himself, “me Carol, sir.” Papa shook the hand of the unknown man.
“There can we help you with, Sir?” ask me with a surprised face. Why would that cute little girl get this close to Lily?
“Sorry, Sir. My son just wants to meet Lily.” The man named Carol looked nervous. Papa was frowning his forehead. She should know anyone who's close to Lily. But this little boy with his dad?
Papa saw Lily asking for clarity.
“So gini, Pa. They used to come here looking for edelweiss flowers. Lily suggested to go to the cultivation place only because our store will not sell the flower.”
Papa is just a beard whether he understands it or not.
Lily crouched down and touched Cia's cheek. Touching the little girl's forehead again was like making sure of something. “Jeez, your body is warm Cia.” Cia nodded and smiled, her hands around Lily's neck.
“A few days back he had a high fever. Previously he whined to meet with Lily, kangen said. But I didn't respond because I was too busy in the hospital,” Carol said.
“We'd better sit inside, not nice chatting while standing,” invite papa.
***
“Where is Cia's mother, sir? If you are busy why not his mother who drove here.” Carol lowered. Papa and Lily wonder why Carol didn't answer.
“Mama Cia sick, Brother. Mama has cancer.” Cia answered.
Lily flinched until she pecked for a while. It repeated itself three years ago. Three years ago, her mother suffered and died of the disease. The bitter memories were still vividly remembered.
“If from the beginning her mother Cia had not hidden her illness from us, she would have been cured. We found out when the disease was advanced. Very small possibility to heal.” Carol tried to hide the sad look on her face. “I'm sorry, Sir. I so tell you the state of my family.” He rubbed his eyes which began to fill with water.
Papa moved to sit next to Carol, patting her on the young papa's back, “it's okay, sir. I understand very well the feelings of Mr. now.”
While Lily, she tightly hugged Cia's body. Her tears fell without letting out a sling.
God, how could there be such a hard ordeal that befall such a small child?
