High Voltage Love's
Ep 4's. Call Patricia
A black sedan car speeding on a stretch of motorway that is empty because the morning is still dark. Ridho drove his car back to Jakarta for work. After talking with his parents about his desire to remarry, his heart was not as confident as before. Moreover, knowing the background of Patricia's family which was so much different from her, had shrunk her intentions.
Ridho had arrived at a multi-storey building that became his office lately. He entered the room after taking the elevator to the 22nd floor. The atmosphere of the combined company office space of some of the divisions still looks quiet, because it arrives faster than the hours of work. The slender-eyed man himself belonged to the fashion division, serving as the head of the division, meaning he was the highest holder of the division. Ridho turned on the computer on his desk, and went straight to the month-end income report on his division. Suddenly his phone rang. Patricia's name is on her screen.
Ridho was surprised, why did Patricia call him this early? In London, it is still midnight.
“Halo?”
“Hai...” the answer is soft.
“You haven't slept?” ask him in English.
“I can't sleep. Your shadow always comes to my mind,” he replied honestly. That of course made Ridho giggle amused with the straightforwardness of the woman.
“What's up?” asked Ridho after he tried to neutralize his voice, because groggy.
“Papa want to meet you next week, can you?” ask the woman nervously.
Ridho gasped in surprise. Patricia must have talked about this with her father. But he did not expect, why could Patricia's father want him to meet? Did he not hear wrong? Remembering his father was a big international businessman.
“Ridho, are you still there?” patricia asked him to throw his daydream.
“Ah, i-iya...” the answer is nervous.
“How? Papa only gives us one chance. Are you sure you'll miss it?” patricia said as if threatening the man.
“T-but, can he accept me?”
“I'm not sure either. But try, I will always be by your side!” patricia said cheeringly.
“Alright, I'll try it. For the sake of our future!” sama later.
“Excited, Ridho! Ask God. I'll do it too.”
“Thank you for your passion.”
“Ah looks like I have to sleep tonight. I'll hang up, happy working!” patricia said softly.
“Good sleep, Pat!”
The connection was cut off, and now Ridho sighed heavily. Her chest feels so tight. If he had to apply for Patricia, what would he give as a dowry? Will Patricia's father give her a heavy condition to ask for her daughter? Argh, why did this have to happen to him? The man hit the eel with his fist.
I had a few questions running through his mind. What does he have to say in front of Mr Antonio? How do you convince the man to give up his daughter? Is she sure she can guarantee Patricia's happiness when she marries him? Why is he trapped in this situation?
If only Namira had never left. Ah, never mind….
If he had any dreams, it would never have changed the situation. He started it, so he had to face this problem to solve it. Love for Patricia is growing again, and she should have made it her greatest strength.
