Hi Kahi, I Still Love You

29.

All the lights in the cafe were turned off. The employees have also gone home. Kahi is alone who is still waiting for his pickup car. But he waited for half an hour, his car had not arrived.

He glanced at the wall, the clock was already showing at half 11 p.m. His hands were busy typing on his phone screen, pressing the call button on Juan's name. Only a welcoming ringtone, not lost his mind he returned to play his fingers. Find Lia's cell phone contact, then press the call sign.

"hallo"

"yet, Mr. Urip has picked me up yet"

"well, Juan didn't know you. Mr. Urip today permission to go home. Keep you still at the cafe, order a taxi online only. Hi"

"yes, I ordered a taxi online. Nye"

Tut tut

He turned off his phone. Then quickly grabbed his sling bag.

Going down the stairs carefully, his eyes focused on the screen of the app on his phone. After leaving the cafe, he locked the big door. Put the key back in his bag.

Walk slowly towards the side of the road in front of the cafe. Waiting alone in the dark that night. Only lighting from street lights and also car lights that pass. It didn't dampen her courage even though she was just a woman. Almost a dozen minutes but the online taxi order has not yet arrived.

Repeatedly contacted taxi drivers online, but there was no answer. He finally decided to walk a few meters towards the highway. Maybe the bus is still passing at this hour.

Lucky when Kahi got to the stop, he wasn't left behind by the bus. Fortunately, there are many people on the same bus.

On the way over and over again Lia sent a message, asking where she was. Kahi was too tired to just type a reply for Lia. So he just waited until his brother-in-law contacted him.

Just as the bus stopped at a red light, Lia contacted him.

"you've booked a taxi online, where are you. Still in the cafe"

"i'm on the bus, don't worry mba. Yes, yes, bye"

"Hi, you"

Tut tut tuut*

He turned off his phone and put his phone back in his bag. He threw away his sight. There are still a lot of cars out there when the night is getting late.

The bus returned to walk, through the still crowded night streets. He was still looking out the window. Occasionally the bus stops at every stop, dropping off passengers. Then his eyes caught something he was very familiar with.

He recognized the man wearing a black long-sleeved shirt suit and matching colored trousers. Despite wearing a hat to hide his face, Kahi knows it only because a little of his face is visible.

Before the bus drove back, he quickly got out. Stepping slowly towards the man who was still sitting, he stood right in front of the still-down man.

The end of their shoes met, making the man finally look up. Looked at his face behind the tip of the hat that covered the man's face.

Kahi stepped closer, grabbing the man into his embrace. There was no response from the man he so desperately wanted to meet. A man who has captured his whole world.

She hugged Gemma's neck tightly, as if not wanting to take the man off. Gemma raised her hand slowly. Then both his hands were coiled around the slender waist belonging to the kahi. He buried his face in Kahi's stomach. Replying to the warm embrace of the woman he loved so closely.

They were sitting together at a restaurant near the stop. Nobody starts talking, they just look at each other. Like spilling all yearning on the owner of his heart.

The two large glasses of hot chocolate have become warm since they chose not to touch it. Prefer to enjoy the scenery they have not seen for a long time.

Tears fell down both of her cheeks, Kahi was already unable to hold it. Recalling the words of the older brother, could not imagine the man he now loved would let go of their relationship.

"don't cry, I don't like to see you cry" Gemma said softly. Kahi lowered her head to let her tears fall free. He drew Gemma's hand slowly from her cheek. Then put that hand on the table. He also pulled his hand from the back of Gemma's hand.

"Juan told you, I'm seriously going to let you go" Gemma said. He shook his head slowly then looked in front of him. The man who was also looking at her softly, was holding back from hugging her.

"we must separate. You can continue your studies. I'll be fine here. Waiting for you back, mas" said Kahi lirih.

"i'll settle there, then get married there. And will not come back here" replied Gemma quickly. He smiled at Kahi. Convincing if he'll be okay.

"then take me with you. I'll accompany you, mas. Being the wife and mother of your child. Don't leave me" Kahi can no longer hold back his feelings. It's too hard to take off the man she loves so much.

Gemma got up from her seat, then grabbed something inside the back pants pocket. He took the wallet, grabbed a piece of money in the hundreds. Putting her on the table, Gemma stared fixedly at the woman who was still crying.

"i can't take you, I can't marry you either. I'm not a good person who can be with a good woman like you. I let you go, ended this relationship. Please do not cry this farewell, live happily" said Gemma in a trembling voice.

"i'm leaving, you have to live happily. Kahi" the man turned around, then stepped away leaving the sobbing Kahi. He leaned up his chest, feeling tight. Very tight, making it difficult to breathe. For quite a long time she cried, whereas the waiter of the restaurant no one dared to calm her broken feelings.

Gemma stepped quickly towards the side of the road, then stopped the taxi not far in front of her. In the taxi he called someone, long enough no sign of a call would be received from him.

"hallo, who is this" asked the man with a distinctive raucous sound of waking up.

"quickly meet Kahi. She's at the Flower restaurant"

Answer Gemma quickly.

"who is this, why is he at the restaurant this evening" the voice of the person across the phone sounded panicked.

"Please take care of him" Gemma said again. Then he turned off the call.

A car stopped suddenly on the street opposite a restaurant. Someone got out of the car in a hurry, he ran frantically towards the restaurant in front of him.

The sound of footsteps entered the already deserted restaurant. He frantically looked around the spacious restaurant room. Then his eyes locked onto someone who was looking down. He walked up to the woman, the closer he could see the woman's shoulders trembling.

Haki stopped right beside the woman, then he knelt down beside Kahi's feet. Makes the woman look at him. Her eyes were so puffy, probably because she had been crying for too long.

"ayo's coming home" one hand held Kahi's hand. The woman just looked at him with sadness. Then one more hand grabbed Kahi's other hand.

"it's late, and then Lia and your brother are worried. Let's go home yes" Haki said again in a soft tone.

I cried again, this time out loud. Haki turned around, carrying both of Kahi's hands to the front of his neck. Then with a single lift, the tiny woman was already inside her carrying.

As he carried Kahi on his back, Haki did not feel any objection. Sadly, the woman was very skinny. He doesn't seem to be carrying people, but he's carrying a pillow.

Kahi's head fell on his shoulder, no more sobs from the woman. Kahi fell asleep on his back. The woman fell asleep on her back and it didn't take long, Kahi she put in the passenger seat.

He looked down and looked at the sleeping woman in front of him. His hands stretched out to wipe away the tear marks on Kahi's cheeks. One more hand stretched out to stroke Kahi's short hair.

"you must be very tired, now we go home yes" he said slowly. Haki closed the car door carefully. Then he walked in the other direction. Open the car door slowly. He got himself behind the wheel and closed the door slowly.

As if reluctant to hold the princess sleeping next to him.
