I Choose You

Episode 11

WAIT AROUND

❤❤❤❤❤❤

The clock has shown the end of the bimbel this afternoon, all packed up and one by one gradually left the classroom. Claudia also stepped out of the classroom to the front porch of her bimbel building, according to Gilang's promise to her this morning she will be picked up by Gilang after the end of the lesson.

New friends in Claudia's class say goodbye to her as they clash in front of the porch of the bimbel building. Claudia waved at her new friends as they left in their own vehicles or at their own invitation. Claudia looked at her watch, five o'clock past twenty minutes. His mind reads the numbers on the short and long needles of a white-studded watch on his wrist. Twenty minutes late, what a jam yes, until Mas Gilang late pick him up. Claudia also chose to sit on one of the chairs neatly arranged on the terrace of the building.

　

"Hey, why haven't you gone home yet? You're Claudiakan?" Tanya Ari Wijaya, one of Claudia's new friends in her bimbel class earlier. Ari was very surprised to see Claudia sitting alone on the terrace of the building, even though all their friends had gone home and the bimbel building was already in the lock. Why are girls still here? Wait who is he? thought Ari when she saw Claudia herself earlier.

　

"Yes I'm Claudia, are you Ari Wijayakan? Ask Claudia back. "I'm waiting for an invitation, it seems late". Claudia.

　

"Ooooo..wait for an invitation", a long O voice was clearly heard coming out of Ari's mouth. "Yes I'm Ari", Ari agrees with Claudia's question. "Who are you waiting to pick up?" ask Ari later.

　

"A pick-up from Mom's daughter boarding" replied Claudia of origin. Actually Claudia was getting upset with Gilang's late pick her up. So he also answered Ari's question with the origin, it feels bad to think about Gilang, it feels like he wants to maki-maki tuh people to be satisfied.

　

"Huh, Mother's daughter boarding? Awesome dong your boarding place, there's a kost all child pick up service?" Ari asked in disbelief.

"Yes, yes, my mother's son is boarding me". Claudia replied casually.

　

"What time do you promise to be picked up? It's getting dark, huh?" Ask Ari later.

　

"Said it was five, but don't know why until now still haven't come too, huuuuhhhhh". The sound of heavy breathing Claudia because of holding back upset due to Gilang who was late to pick her up.

　

"Emmm, have you tried calling?" Ari looked at Claudia.

　

Claudia shakes her head, "can't call, I have a battery on my phone". Claudia replied sadly.

　

"This is my phone, use it, you call your mother's daughter boarding. It's getting dark, you can't wait here". Ari gives Claudia her phone.

　

"Thank you Ari, don't worry. I don't memorize people's phone numbers". Claudia just got Gilang's phone number this morning when they were about to leave for this pulpit. So don't blame Claudia if she hasn't memorized the numbers that Gilang's phone numbers are. He could have used Ari's cell phone to call his mother, could have asked Mother to tell Mama Rachel to send a driver to pick him up. But Claudia remembered her Mother's message this morning, so that Claudia would not trouble Papa Hartanto's family and she would have to study independently. Ahh, how is this? Claudia was hesitating.

　

"Well, if I go between how?" Ari gives Claudia a new solution.

　

　

"Come", invite Ari to direct Claudia's parking lot. Ari gives Claudia a spare helmet and she turns on her sport bike.

　

The motor has been turned on, the helmet has been given to Claudia, but Claudia is still standing behind the bike. Why else, shut up. Ari was astonished to look at Claudia from the rearview mirror of her motorcycle. "Why?" Ask Ari later.

　

"I don't know my boarding address". Answer Claudia slowly.

"Hahhhhhh, WHAT, O Lord, you don't know your boarding address? Claudia, you can't be kidding me. It wants magrib". Ari was really surprised by Claudia's reply earlier. Although Claudia replied in a soft voice, Ari's ears could hear well Claudia's successful answer made her feel disbelief.

　

"I'm sorry, I don't know the address. I am new here, just arrived in Semarang. This morning immediately bimbel, promised to go home to be picked up. Where to think to ask for an address, besides where I thought I would get a surprise like this, use a late show at the pick up". Claudia's voice slowly added.

　

Ari rubbed his face, this girl pity very much. Want to be among not know the address, want to be in pity. Well, how should I? Want to be saved bring it home, emmm.does he want?

　

"So what now? I can't keep you waiting, I have a half-seven hour deal". Ari no longer has a solution for Claudia.

　

"You go ahead" Claudia replied as she returned the spare helmet Ari had given her. "I'll wait again. How do you know my invitation is coming".

　

" i honestly doubt you'd stay here by yourself. If you are a boy in the bodo period, but this is where you are the new girl here. You don't know the area very well yet, but I really have to go. I've already promised". Ari is confused as to how now.

　

"You walk, you'll be late. It's almost six o'clock. I'm not papah, trust me. My invitation will come". Claudia tried to convince Ari. Actually Claudia also does not know what to do now other than resignedly waiting for Gilang to come to pick her up. When asked how she felt at this time, Claudia began to be attacked by a little fear. What Ari said just now was true, himself waiting on the terrace of the building, a new place new area, it felt very helpless. But if there was any other choice, there was no way he would forbid Ari to go and sit quietly beside him until Gilang came.

　

"You sure?" Ari hesitates to leave Claudia.

　

Claudia nodded while showing her best smile.

　

"Emm, gini. You're fine wait for an invitation here. I'm gone for a minute, sorry I really can't keep up with you. But I'm just wondering, seven o'clock I'll be back here. If when I come back here you haven't been picked up either, you won't want to come with me home. We cash your phone at my house, call your hostel family and wait for them to pick you up at my house to come". For now that was all Ari could do, he really had to leave. Ari had promised her mother would pick up her sister from her ballet lessons at half-seven.

　

Claudia confirms all Ari's words. He also sat back on the terrace chair of his bimbel building while watching Ari's sports bike pass from his eyes.
