I Borrowed Him
Coffee Shop In The City
Sunny day, in a cluster of luxury housing that looks deserted from the activities of its citizens. In one house with a distinctive Japanese cultural accent, Mercedes Benz C200, BMW 330i, and BMW 740Li cars are parked in front of the house. Inside the house, Jester, Sarah, Luke, Grece, Justin, Selena and Harry were sitting on the couch.
On the table in front of them all, there are several sheets of paper with pictures of costumes to perform. But from the gaze of the seven of them, as if everything did not focus on the sheets scattered on the table. All the more focused on the news that just got out, the news about the arrest of someone who allegedly did photo editing Daniel and Naomi that had horrendous.
"What did Daniel really plan?" justin's mumbling
"Where did he get a fool who would sacrifice for him like that?" Grece chimed in Justin's mumble
"All I found was Daniel selling his car, maybe he paid the guy some money" Sarah replied as she gave Luke her phone, which showed a picture of a Honda Civic being sold, the caption says 'Ex Selebgram'
"Where do you know this is his car?" ask Luke while looking at the picture
"He bought the car when he and I were engaged in a job in the next town, and I was forced to accompany him." Sarah said, Luke looked at Sarah with a look of jealousy.
"Stop looking at me like that stupid gorilla!" snapped Sarah to Luke, with an annoyed face Luke threw away in jealousy.
Seeing Luke's attitude makes Sarah's emotions rise, Sarah again beat Luke with a tube while bringing up the incident when Sarah's head hit the door because of Luke's action. Sarah's torture to Luke does not make his friends pity and instead tend to be indifferent, it makes Luke upset.
"Heei help me!!" luke shouted for help
"Sarah... calm down first, torture him as much as you when this conversation is over" said Jester calmly, Sarah stopped her blow to Luke but Luke was visibly upset to hear Jester's words.
"Hey Jester, it seems Daniel wants to take the opportunity to be a hero for Naomi" said Harry guessing, Grece turned his gaze to look at Harry in surprise.
"What do you mean?" grece asked confused
"However Naomi must know that the photo spread is not an edit, with this news I strongly suspect that Daniel wants to tell Naomi, even though she sacrificed herself to improve Naomi's name" Harry replied, harry said as Selena and Justin agreed with a nod of their heads.
"Then it's bad donk, can - can Naomi be fooled!! you sneaky crocodile!!" with a tone that sounded full of emotion Grece said
"May I speak?" jester asked, gesturing to keep his friends quiet and watching him, they all turned their eyes to look at Jester and fell silent.
"First it's true that it wasn't my plan, it was Daniel's own initiative" Jester said calmly
"It's true!! let's get that crocodile!!" full of emotion Grece chimed in on Jester's words, but again - again Jester with a gesture of hand asking Grece to be quiet.
"Both... Daniel gave up chasing Naomi and asked me to try hard for Naomi's happiness" said Jester, although not believing but all still silent staring at Jester.
"and third.... Naomi won't be that stupid... Do you think she'll just believe Daniel's scenario? or did one of you call Naomi to ask what Daniel was doing?" jester asked as he looked at the faces of the friends one by one, but all shook his head several times.
"I will remain vigilant, it's just that maybe these eyes can already see the sincerity of someone even if it's from a very bad person.." with a sigh Jester said, saying, his body also collapsed, leaning on the back of the sofa while staring at the sky - the sky of the house.
"I just hope.... Naomi is pleased with the development of this case." jester chirped sounded hopeful.
At the same time as Jester's meeting with Selena, Luke, Harry, Sarah, Justin and Grece at his home, Daniel is seen sitting in the Coffee Shop located in the middle of the city center. Coffee Shop that looks lonely from visitors even in front of the Coffee Shop it looks a lot of people passing by, very suitable for people who want to avoid the crowd.
***crying***
The sound of bells marking someone entered the Coffee Shop also rang, the sound of, immediately a middle-aged man who served as a barista who had been reading the newspaper put his newspaper on the table to greet his new visitors that afternoon.
"Good day" the barista greeted the newly-entered visitor, walking up to the barista's feet to order.
"Double shot espresso, please" the woman's message to the barista, for a while the barista looked into the customer's eyes.
"Can I suggest something else?" ask the barista to the visitors
"No, please that's it" the woman replied firmly, the barista sighed for a moment while preparing the order.
"Double shot espresso or Doppio is perfect for people who must be awake... but you look to have to rest immediately miss... sure do not want to change the menu?" the barista asked his customers in a calm voice, but the female visitor only shook her head.
Double shot espresso is usually always in demand by someone who does not want his eyes closed, wants his eyes to be awake for various reasons they have.
Then a woman with tired eyes, blackened eye bags, her face was deathly pale without the slightest makeup polish, looking a little wound on her hands and fingers came to order Double shot espresso. It was as if the woman was afraid of having her eyes closed even though her condition was very worrying.
"What weight do you carry? this old man's advice, if it is very heavy, share it with people who care about you" said the barista wisely, not long a cup of espresso he gave to customers.
"Thank you for the advice and the coffee" the woman received the coffee cup and gave some money on the table and walked over to Daniel who was still silent looking at his coffee cup
"This is where we first started dating to get to know each other, you picked this place so the world wouldn't know if a famous celebgram was dating a middle-of- nowhere guy like me... right, Naomi?" daniel asked as he turned his eyes to look at Naomi, his eyes showing such deep regret that Naomi came with a very sad appearance.
The first sentence that sounded like a prank should Naomi hear and come out of Daniel's mouth. The figure of the man who has now disappeared from Naomi's heart, not only was it never a monster that scared Daniel also made Naomi have to lose her first love.
"Sit down and tell me what you're calling me for" Daniel said, as Naomi stared silently at him, slowly sitting in front of Daniel.
At that time every word that Daniel spoke only caused hatred that increasingly peaked in the recesses of Naomi's heart against Daniel. Naomi's eyes were fixed on Daniel's face but showed an almost ordinary expression. Yaah... Naomi managed to muffle all her feelings and just eliminate them with a heart that was empty because she was tired of Daniel's love that hurt her.
"What are you doing all that for? did Jester force you?" ask Naomi straight to the point
"I did it to make amends and this is not Jester's order" Daniel replied firmly
"What else are you planning to do this time?" ask Naomi to press Daniel
"There's nothing, I've said all this to make amends" Daniel replied
"What's my fault with you until you can do this to me?" asked Naomi again with a tone that began to rise, Daniel just fell silent staring at Naomi's eyes.
Naomi's attitude dawned on Daniel that there was nothing left of Naomi for him, as Daniel felt that he had the heart to destroy Naomi because of his selfishness. A long breath slowly exhaled as if to be a sign before Naomi finally vented all her heart to Daniel
"You came with a promise to make my world beautiful, I was so trusting. Prioritizing you is my habit of always making you happy. You made me fall asleep until I brushed off every bad omen that came so many times just because of the promise of the beautiful world" with a voice that sounded trembling Naomi said it, saying it, daniel's heavy smile was visible from his lip line but Daniel's eyes showed how sorry he was.
"But the beautiful world has now been destroyed, you brought it into the vast ocean and just drowned it. You start hurting and hurting me a lot, especially when you know that I'm not yours anymore" Naomi said as she squeezed firmly into the espresso-filled cup in front of her, her breathing sounding heavier.
"I've been this damned long..have you ever been a little aware that it's not just my heart that you've been hurting all this time? even my life you destroyed..why are you so torturing me.." sounds sad Naomi said, for a moment Naomi set her breath.
"Have I hurt you all this time to the point of making you feel worthy of breaking me down?! Do you realize, now I must hate you to love myself?!!" asked Naomi with pressure, her eyes now fixed sharply staring at Daniel who was still staring in front of Naomi.
"Do I have to repeat the same question so that you can tell me your reason is this bad?!" back pressed Naomi when she asked
"No need. I remember that question very well in my head. I will answer with the same answer, at that time I still look at you as mine" Daniel replied in a tone that sounded sad
"Yours? after everything that is clearly visible in front of your eyes, you can still assume I am yours?" a sinister smile is glimpsed on Naomi's face, while Daniel chooses not to answer anything.
"I had to hurt myself to realize that you weren't the best for me at the time that I had to find myself in order to forget you, even if you bring the beautiful world you promised me would return. All will never matter again, then why be forced?!" The body of Naomi who from the beginning sat before Daniel slightly bent down now she stood with her head not bowed and her eyes looked sharply at Daniel who was only silent as if letting himself forget all the contents of his heart.
"What do you keep forcing? Let go of me, let me fly high to live my beautiful world that I have been able to create without you!" pinta Naomi with a clash, suddenly Daniel extended his hand to shake hands with Naomi.
What Daniel did at that time made Naomi wonder, for a moment Naomi's eyes turned to look at Daniel's outstretched hand as if asking Naomi to shake her hand. Slowly Naomi looked back at Daniel's face, the line of her smile was still visible but the look could not be lied to if Daniel was harboring feelings of sadness and heartbreak.
"Why did we become like this? I know all this is my fault, but even now I still find it difficult to accept the fact that you are no longer mine. There's no proper word for me to say to you other than words... I'm sorry Naomi.." Daniel's voice sounded soft as she said it, Naomi just fell silent looking at Daniel's face.
"This is where I'm going to say for the last time.I'm going to let you fly wherever you want... we will continue our lives each in a state of not knowing each other as you want" continued Daniel said, Daniel's tears seen dripping when saying it.
As if not caring about what Daniel said, Naomi stood up without welcoming Daniel's handshake. Though the look of her eyes were still upon each other, there was not the slightest bit of Naomi's compassion for Daniel that shed her tears.
"I'll give you a memory - a last memory forever.I'll make it up and remember when there's a little doubt in your heart to bother me again, so look at the memories again and get away from me" Naomi said, leaving the Coffee Shop, leaving Daniel still sticking his hand out on the table, and leaving all their memories behind.
Daniel pulled back his hand and he folded both hands on the table, his eyes now glaring at Naomi's cup of espresso that he hadn't touched at all since. For a moment Daniel drifted in his daydreams and grief until a hand was seen taking the espresso cup, slowly distracted Daniel stared at the barista's face about to clean the table.
"I remember the first time you were with the girl came here.The look in her eyes seemed to no longer care about the world and its contents, there was only you... his smile that looks happy is very felt to me if he is very happy with you." said the middle-aged man, Daniel smiled heavily and then lowered his gaze again.
"This old man has been very experienced in looking at someone's eyes and what I found first from the girl's gaze is a gaze that says whatever your faults are to me, I will forgive you. What exactly have you done to such a good girl?" asked the middle-aged man with a hint of pressure
"Very bad uncle..so bad.I find it hard to explain it to you" Daniel said in response.
"Your decision is right to let the girl go" the middle-aged man said, then immediately turned around with Naomi's espresso cup
"If only I could turn back time.I would have realized sooner and sooner to let go for Naomi's happiness... there was nothing else I regretted except that." Daniel said and cried again sobbing - sobs, the middle-aged man stopped his steps.
"This place is a silent witness for you and the girl ties your love and here you grow up to be proud to break your selfishness and break the relationship between the two of you. Looks like you will continue to bond with this place" the middle-aged man chanted and left Daniel crying at one corner of the coffee shop table
