Hope Is You's
Eighteen
Ian drove his car at high speed making Selly who was sitting in the seat of the next passenger tense.
"I.. Ian. hat.ti-hati" Selly also several times remind Ian to be careful or slow down the pace of his car but not driven by Ian
"DIAN AWAASS!!"
Ckiiitttttt along with Selly's scream, the sound of a car tire squeak because Ian stepped on the brake suddenly because it almost hit a pedestrian who was about to cross the road
"WOIIII IF YOU WANT TO CROSS IN ZEBRA CROSS G*BLOKKK!!" Ian, who pulled his head out of the car window, yelled at the pedestrian who was crossing the road out of place, and was met with a lotion and a strange gaze of the pedestrian who kept walking away
"Propsy. You're also speeding" Selly who tried to lift it by gently stroking his arm and was reciprocated with delicacy by Ian who then pulled over his car
"****!" He hit the steering wheel after pulling out his car, venting out any frustration he felt today.
"he is the one who is always there for me. He's my future husband" Atika said out loud making the three pairs of eyes there wide in shock including Faiz.
"Can't be. You can't be that quick to get my replacement"
"Why is it impossible? Do you think you're the only one who can be happy to leave me because of another woman? I also want to be happy, and she" Atika paused her sentence then raised her hand that tightly grasped Faiz's hand and continued
"He who will make all my dreams of happiness build relationships"
"But I'm sure you still love me, still love me. The proof of the ring from me is still you wear" Ian glanced at Atika's left hand - precisely at her ring finger that was still wearing a silver ring decorated with jewels, followed by Faiz and Selly glanced at the ring.
Atika removed the grip of her right hand on Faiz's left hand, removed the silver ring from her ring finger and grabbed Ian's right hand and put the ring on Ian's hand.
"I'm kemutin. Thanks to everyone, thanks for being one of the reasons I smiled" Atika clasped Faiz's hand again and walked to the car past Ian and Selly.
The incident a while ago still ringing in his mind made his chest rumble again, tired of hitting the steering wheel Ian lowered his head resting on the steering wheel.
"So she's Atika?" Selly asked to see Ian stop hitting the steering wheel but Ian did not respond
"Beautiful well, and apparently she is a kind and loving woman. It's obvious that you really love each other" Selly glanced at Ian who was still down and occasionally muttered indistinctly.
"First from one of the men that I love, I once saw the eyes hurt because I could not defend loved ones" Selly re-opened her voice when Ian's mutter was not heard anymore
"He's Farrel's brother, my only brother. She loved the woman who had been her boyfriend for almost two years, but was forced to swallow the bitter parting because the mama-papa did not agree with their relationship. Just like you, she loves women of different social status" Selly took a breath and continued her story
"I used to be able to do nothing at the breakup of Farrel and his girlfriend, but now I won't stay silent to see the man who.. displaying the same injured eye highlight as Brother Farrel" hearing Selly's last sentence, Ian raised his head and looked at Selly with a frown, and Selly replied with a sweet smile before continuing
"I know, our engagement is there because of my mother's obsession who really wants to be made by the same om Wihardi and aunt Diana. While you still love Atika very much. I'm gonna help you get back to him" Ian's eyes rounded at Selly's words, and then smiled as Gibran said it was probably true, the children of Ferdinan are not as ambitious as their parents.

Faiz's car moved away from the ATK shopping mall, after several meters of walking Faiz pulled over his car which made Atika stare at him with a questioning gaze
"You cry first, I wait outside" Faiz then turned on the radio on the dashboard with a large volume and went out and stood leaning on the hood of the car.
Along with the release of Faiz, the radio station played the song Exactly on Sunday Night owned by Terry who made his tears drip without permission
What was my fault that you hurt me
When my love began to grow and flower
You're scratching the pain I never expected
You broke all my hopes
You ruined all my dreams
I also understand we are very different
Like heaven and earth separated
But that doesn't mean it's the size of the moon the star I'm lowering
Prove all feelings
Atika starts to let out a sobbing of hearing every song lyrics that really reflects her feelings at the moment, imagining how sweet her relationship with Ian used to be, how Ian treated her well despite their different social status but Ian never brought up much less the issue, it was always romantic especially when Ian proposed to her on the day he wisudah
On Sunday night, you decided I'd be your lover
Exactly the night of Sunday you left me you brought me to ruin
You left me in a pain
Until his memory returns on the night he witnessed Ian pairing his official engagement ring in front of dozens or even hundreds of guests. His chest felt so tight that he cried a mouthful
I swear to death I can't live without you
But you try to forget me with a new love
Should I shout in front of you
(Terry-To be Exactly Sunday Night)
He leaned his forehead on the dashboard of the car and recalled the incident moments ago, when the woman appeared behind Ian's back with the call 'the', her chest was completely claustrophobic and embarrassed as she could not hide the look of her injured face in front of Ian and his fiance until she had to confess that Faiz was her future husband, 'wait. Prospective husband?' Atika raised her head and her eyes immediately caught the tall man standing behind her leaning on the hood of the car - which she had loudly acknowledged as a 'prospective husband'
Atika wiped away the tears left on her cheeks and the corner of her eyes took a breath and exhaled her to try to reduce the rest of the hiccup because crying then turning off the radio and honking made Faiz turn and go back in and sit behind the wheel
"Udah? Cepet also, I think you will cry for hours" he said as he rang the car engine and started driving it, Atika just cheered to hear it.
"Ehmm. engh sir" Atika cleared her throat which felt dry from crying even for a few minutes
"I. emm.. I'm sorry" Faiz took a quick glance as he raised his eyebrows and looked back at the road ahead
"My brain is not really stuck do not know what to say earlier, and what comes to me only if Mr. Faiz cal. lon emm my future husband" Atika lowered her head trying to hide the red tinge on her cheeks, and Faiz responded with just a slanted smile and
"Ohh" made Atika raise her head and look at Faiz
"But it's not free" he continued
"Not free? I have to pay that?" Faiz responded with just a nod and a face that remained flat
"Hm. How many rupiahs?" This time Faiz chuckled at Atika's innocent question which made Atika also smile
"Not with money"
"Trus?"
"Later when I need help, you must be ready to help me" Faiz glanced at Atika with a smile and again as hypnotized Atika smile with each look at Faiz's smile.
A few minutes into the trip they finally almost arrived at the shop where Atika worked, but Faiz did not pull over the car and kept going straight
"Loh, sir. The shop passed by" Faiz only glanced at her at a glance then replied
"You don't have to stop by the store, I'll drive you home"
"But why?"
"Your eyes are sloppy. I don't want the store children to accuse me of your macemin" Atika mendelik hear Faiz's reason and not suspect Faiz's car has entered the gate of Atika's house complex without being directed
"Sir Faiz knows where I live in this complex?" Ask Atika wonder
"The data of employees there is a complete address" Atika only ria ria heard Faiz
"Front turn right, third house left" he directed when the car was approaching to the block of his house, until finally the car stopped in front of the house simple but looks comfortable with blue paint
"That's your mama?" Faiz asked as he looked at the middle-aged woman who was sweeping the courtyard, making Atika turn her head and nod
"Thank you sir already.." the sentence hangs when you turn to the driver's seat and there's no Faiz, he quickly got out of the car and saw Faiz, who was shaking hands and kissing the back of his mother's hand.
"I'm Faiz aunty, supervisor at the shop where Atika works" Faiz who was not welcome to introduce himself to his mother with a smile on his face made Atika again smile to see him
"Ohh. Your boss son?" Mom turned to look at Atika who was standing behind Faiz
"Yes ma'am" Atika approached and greeted mother
"Jaudah go in first yuk" invited the mother to Faiz who still displayed a hypnotic smile
"No need to aunt, I want to go straight away. I want a night too"
"Oh that. Thank you for anterin Atika yah son"
"Yes aunty, same" Faiz turned and walked towards his car then entered and turned the direction then passed after honking and slightly bowing his head towards mother.
"The handsome tick?" Mom smiled seductively Atika who since then her eyes did not escape Faiz
"Well mother" her cheeks met red and then turned and left the mother who was still smiling seductively
