Flower Seller Girl

To Remember Each Other

“You owe me an explanation. On the phone or message you have not answered,” Carol is no less rebuking. It wasn't Dion's fault. He and his family were invited to the wedding. Due to the circumstances, no family member could attend.

Dion grieves bitterly, “you already know I'm married because it was betrothed.”

“Kok can with flowers that are still buds?”

“Ndon't know. Noh tanya mami, papi!” he exclaimed by taking a more relaxed sitting posture.

After a few minutes they were silent because they heard the sound of laughter from behind.

“Your son can be that close to Lily, why?” That said, Cia is a child who is not easily familiar with others.

“Her eyes are beautiful as flowers and sweet as honey.” Carol added a laugh at the end of her sentence. And, of course, Dion was not lured with the rut. His eyes are hunting Carol sharp.

“She said or you said?”

Carol let out a breath of laughter, the man beside her was indeed like that, too serious. You can count how many times you laugh during your friendship. Without wanting to buy time, he told the beginning of their meeting with Lily and how enthusiastic Cia would be if she wanted to meet the flower girl.

It turns out that what Lily revealed to her the other day was the same thing Carol said now. The girl did not lie.

“Normal humans can see Lily a beautiful and sweet girl in terms of her physique. A good girl is also friendly in terms of her nature,” she said at the end of the story. “Cia never one day absent discussing about him.”

Dion knows that. It is hypocritical to say at the beginning of the meeting was not effective. Prestigious was rampant at that moment. Because his parents were too eager to make a match and he tried to argue that he did not look interested. But what happened? Destiny has answered.

Dion spread his head with his eyes closed. His mind ran in his head.

“Didn't you see it that way? Have you not moved on from Clara?” guess Carol. All Carol knows is that this man is dead in love with the woman whose name is Clara.

Dion wears a cleft smile, “you're wrong. I am so grateful to be free of him.” Then he opened his eyes, grabbed the jar whose lid was already open from Carol's grasp, reached into the contents and put it in his mouth.

“Cannot.” Carol could not believe the show as well as the mocking laughter on her lips. “I'm the only person who knows best how much you love that woman.”

“Haha, the one you talked about first. Ye know? Now I believe that God is capable of turning the heart of man. Because one of them is me,” replied Dion steadily.

“You?” Carol stared intently at the person sitting next to her. Gathering details of the facts he had just assumed. Slowly he brought his face closer to Dion's ear, “don't tell me you're in love with the girl?” ask slowly so that no one hears.

Dion turned his head, not at all disturbed or bothered by the question just now. Happy sparkles clearly visible in his eyes, “you always right guess my heart content.” His smile also expands.

Carol keeps her head away, “Bro, I know you're a hard person to fall in love with. Thats impossible. It can't be that fast. Clara just needs a struggle for years to make you fall in love.”

“This girl didn't take that much time to make me fall in love with her, Bro,” she said proudly. The snack in the jar was taken again and eaten.

Carol could not say anymore. Dion also pressed Carol's tea glass.

After drinking it. “Here,” Dion slapped thin part of his chest to the left, “always pounding when adjacent and in contact with him,” he continued without embarrassment.

“Bro, you know, no? You are like a teenager who just fell in love.”

Dion's laughter exploded.

As Carol praised Lily, Dion's laughter disappeared. Dion stared at Carol horror, “never do you praise my wife let alone fall in love with her! The clinic and hospital you work at will be.”

Carol flinching. What Dion said, that's what happened.

“Pa, Papa doesn't have to worry about Lily's next education. Dion will take care of it.”

Before really saying goodbye, Dion first expressed his great desire at this time. Actually not entirely his desire, he was well aware that it was his responsibility where he would direct Lily. Carol and her daughter went home a while ago. Lily was engrossed in the garden with Ms. Sinta.

Papa smile. “Thank you.”

“Papa don't do this. Dion will do her best for Lily.”

There is a sense of turbulence that unfolds from within papa. It doesn't matter if the words are just a heart-wrenching reminder or if Dion says them as sincerely as he does. For papa there is at least a little progress in this marriage. Not as stiff as in the beginning.

Papa hugged Dion's shoulder warmly as he walked out. The two engage again in an intimate conversation before Dion actually leaves the place for her place of work.

***

As he promised this afternoon, this afternoon Dion picked up the cute girl. Still driving his second wheel. Moreover, the reason other than to be hugged by the girl.

“Mas, if Mas Dion is busy again, I can go home alone kok.” Lily is not feeling well. Because this morning before leaving for school, Lily heard clearly so that her schedule was pushed back. So his ambition is Dion's a lot of work.

“No, my work is done.”

Lies. Right now on his desk there are a lot of files. Phase, the assistant is now irritated because he was given a lot of tasks and suddenly too. Tonight too the work must be in order and must be delivered to the house later. That's how the boss says. Ambyar has plans for a weekly night with the idol. Prepare him to receive tantrums from the lover because he who makes promises he also denies.

“Where is papa?”

“Papa again in cafe.” Confused why Dion went inside. “Mas, we don't go home?”

“We wait for papa first.”

“Not necessary, Mas. I said goodbye to papa. I can't stand the shower.” Lily snatched the jacket on the chair.

Dion looked at the body of the girl who was still wrapped in her school clothes. Remember that teenage boy. “Do you need that signature and name on your shirt?”

“Ya?” Lily followed Dion's index. “Oh, Axel.” Lily could see the cold glare from those eyes. “It's a keepsake, Mas. So we can remember each other.” Of course the reason is so. There are still many other student names scratched in the white shirt, but why is only the name Axel in question?

Dion really didn't like that answer. Recollect each other? His gaze became sharper as if he was ready to hit. “Why should it be there? Why should it be right in the heart?”

Lily felt her body heat up. It could not be deciphered why Dion reacted that way. And he added the sentence again, “because the day after Axel will go to Japan and lecture there. So he wants me to always remember it in my heart.”

Ahh, it hurts so much. He was jealous, but this girl did not put her heart on Axel.

Without speaking again, Dion rushed towards his vehicle with a worn face. Before following, Lily first said goodbye to Mr. Seto and Ms. Sinta.
