FORBIDDEN TO FALL IN LOVE

9. Strategies

While waiting for Celine and Kris to arrive, Valeda sits in the man's pick-up car to avoid being exposed to the cold night air. Incidentally, outside is drizzling rain. Although not dense, it will still make wet if standing under it for thirty minutes.

"Sister, stink, huh?" a little boy sitting next to Daniel asked. Her toothy front makes her face look funny if she smiles.

Valeda sniffed seriously. "You what? What vegetables?" Valeda asked back.

The boy looked at Daniel. "Sister Dan," he whispered, but could still be heard by Valeda. "Beautiful girl doesn't matter the smell of vegetables. Sis and I've been looking for a girlfriend."

"Uhuk! Uhuk! Uhuk!" Daniel deliberately coughed for the last sentence to sound faint in Valeda's ear. She must have felt bad for the woman who helped her.

"Sister Dan, if you cough, cover the inner elbow, dong! His hands are so many germs!" protest the little boy.

"Whose name are you, brother?" Valeda diverted the conversation.

"Gio," the little boy became interested in Valeda again.

"Yesterday, who's sick?" ask Valeda.

"Gio's sister is sick. Called Beautiful. But it's healed. Said Kak Dan, there are rich people who help Indah to heal," replied Gio as it is.

"This woman who helped Beautiful, Gi," said Daniel quickly.

Gio's eyes were perfectly rounded and sparkling, as if he had seen a rainbow on a clear morning after last night's rain. "Mimahaaaaaah?" tanyanya.

"It's coincidence. It just so happened that I was there and could help," Valeda blushed in embarrassment. He liked Gio's honest look. It felt like he brought Gio home and made him a brother.

"Thank you, Brother! Thanks to Brother, my sister is healthy again!" Gio hugged Valeda very tightly.

Valeda's face turned red. He fell in love with the warmth and honesty of the little boy.

"Oh, that's Miss's invitation," Daniel cuts off Valeda's happiness.

Valeda's favorite sedan car stops right in front of Daniel's pick-up. Daniel could not be wrong, because the Valeda car is not a market car that can be used by many people.

Not long after the car stopped, Celine came down with an umbrella followed by Kris. Valeda hurriedly opened the car door and got off the pick up for Celine to see.

"Gosh, Val!" celine was shocked when she saw Valeda. "Why? What's up?"

"It's been a crazy night!" lamented Valeda. "We're straight back to my apartment."

"Who's jacket is this, Miss?" kris asked who arrived next to Valeda.

Valeda just remembered the existence of Daniel and Gio. He knocked on the glass of the pick up car. Daniel immediately lowered the window of his car. "Your jacket and hat will be returned after washing."

Daniel will answer that it is okay to be returned now. However, he remembered the man that Valeda had snooped on. He does not want to be labeled the same as a psychopath, although different affairs. "OK," Daniel replied in the end.

That night finally passed. That night for Valeda was the worst night of his life. Never has Valeda spent so much energy dealing with men. In fact, he needed the help of a stranger. As long as Valeda is with Celine, Celine is the only person Valeda trusts to ask for her help.

Valeda was able to breathe a sigh of relief once she arrived at her comfortable and warm apartment. He immediately cleaned himself up and joined Celine and Kris in the living room.

"Can you still eat?" ask Celine.

"You ordered something?" Valeda rubbed his head with a towel. Her hair is still a little wet at the moment.

"Kris ordered fried chicken and beer," Celine glanced at Kris. "She's trying to give her a 'gift."

Valeda sat down next to Celine. He looked at Celine and Kris alternately. "Since you've helped me, please use my place as you please tonight."

Valeda didn't mind if Celine and Kris were currently filling her room with the fragrance of fried chicken. Valeda will also enjoy the food they order. He was willing to unwind after dealing with three crazy men in three consecutive days.

"I'm not going to see Mama tomorrow" Valeda broke up.

"But Madame Emely will be looking for you, Val," Celine tried to remind. "He is the most unworked person in the world."

"Hhh, you're right" complained Valeda.

"How about you hide for a few days? Like going abroad?" bargain Celine.

"Mrs Emely is going after her" said Kris. "Outcountry is not a difficult place to reach Mrs Emely."

"Especially with the spy beside me," added Valeda, wanting him to insinuate Kris, but Kris even got a beard and made Valeda giggle amused.

Chris did not deny. It is true, that Mrs Emely often contacted her to ask for news or the whereabouts of Valeda. Unlike the busy Celine, Kris can still answer incoming calls because her job is just behind the wheel when Valeda needs her.

"Cel, do you have any ideas to avoid blind dates like this again?" ask Valeda.

"I told Miss. There are three things that are bi-"

"Kris, stop!" snapped Valeda, cutting Kris's word. "You saw it yourself, right? My mom wasn't that easy stopping this useless blind date."

"Miss is right," Kris was bearded again.

"You're usually smart. Time doesn't have any ideas?" Celine asked Valeda.

Valeda gnawed at his forehead, starting to think seriously. He had to get a brilliant idea to get out of this matter. Valeda must be able to find the best strategy so as not to fall into that terrible match.

Not just Celine. Valeda himself wondered why his brain did not function as well as when he was working. Everything seemed to be malfunctioning now, making him dizzy the seven roving around.

"Val, seriously you don't have any ideas?" Celine asked again.

Valeda snorted loudly at Celine's unhelpful question. "You're thinking too, dong!" valeda's orders.

"Excuse me, order!" abrah's voice rang out from behind the door of Valeda's apartment. Kris hurried up from his seat and walked up to the door, while Valeda and Celine thought in silence.

"Take it," Kris slipped a hundred thousand bills into Abrah's hands.

"Thank you, Mister!" Abrah smiled happily, then bowed and bowed flatly from in front of Kris.

Chris returned to his seat. He opened his fried chicken box slowly, then continued to open the beer can.

When he looked up, Kris still found the two women in front of him thinking hard. In fact, Kris has opened their beer cans. Fried chicken is also available in plain sight. No one is interested.

Kris took a long breath. She was planning to let go of the fatigue tonight, before Valeda called Celine and dragged her all the way here. However, what he now got were two hardworking people who thought hard to ruin his break.

"Have you not found an answer yet?" ask Kris.

"Kris, it's like you want to find a lottery prize in a shampoo pack. You have to try!" valeda was upset. A second later, Valeda was silent with round eyes. "Celine!"

"What!?" Celine turned her head in shock as Valeda suddenly shouted while calling her name.

"I have an idea!" Valeda clapped his hands boisterously, stirring himself.
