I'm Not a Wild Grass

I'm Not a Wild Grass
Nge Date Plan (POV Laila)



A week had passed since the day Oma Ruth was found dead in her room.


I was at home for almost a week now. My job as Oma's care taker has ended since Oma died.


Mama Ilmaya actually offered me a job as Erlan's secretary at her company. But I don't feel I have enough qualifications to be a secretary. Because my education status is only high school graduation.


Erlan is currently the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Mr Gilberth's company. He replaced his Papa position since he returned home, about six months ago.


During this one week, Erlan always visited my house after he returned from work. He said he misses me because he is used to seeing me every day. But I don't believe the reason for that to the fullest.


"Don't fight, Lan! You come here every day just want to eat fried food made by me, right?" I accuse Erlan who is spending fritters of knowing my artificial contents.


"Mmm. not La. I really miss you!" Erlan.


"Yes. But while frying my fries too, right?"


Erlan scowled, and finally admitted to my accusations as well.


"You're a really fry pinter, honey. It tastes better than what is commonly sold at five feet," Erlan praised.


"Yes yes! Laila is that. The fry knows it's super stuffing. Pake chicken meat chili peppered with potato mixture. It knows the premium content, Lan.." I'm proud of myself.


"Yes, honey, if it is sold it must be sold. Eat five full of this too!" Erlan said back to praising.


I just smiled and didn't respond to Erlan's words anymore.


After knowing the contents on the plate had run out, Erlan resumed the conversation.


"So, you really don't want to accept my secretary's job offer, La?" Erlan asked suddenly.


"No, Lan. I don't want to use the nepotism ah to get into your company. But maybe it's good if I don't work in the same place as you, Lan!"


"What the hell is that?!" Erlan's protest disagrees.


"Soalah, have a relationship with coworkers noisier! Especially if like we break up later, must be the ends later I have to move work again right?"


"Haishis.. Laila. don't tell me to break the verdict! We've only been dating twice a week." Erlan protested back.


"Lha, are we talking about possibilities, right, Lan? We should always be ready for umbrellas before it rains. Always look at the worst possible things that could happen. So in the future we can be more careful. Yeah, Kan?"


"Yes.yes. Whatever you say, my queen." so good Erlan while raising her eyebrows.


After a while...


"La.. on Saturday, we have a date yuk!" Take Erlan suddenly.


"Nge date's? Where to?"


"Where do you want it, baby.I'm ready to be his ojeg.."


"Kok ojeg anyway? Didn't you get in the car?"


"No, ah. I think riding a motorcycle is more exciting. Pity also that the old Cai-Cai has not been made way," cried Erlan.


Cai-cai is the new name of Erlan's beloved moge. His name was Bob. But I forced her to change her name to Cai-Cai. Abbreviation of Cabe Ijo.


"OKAY. You're the one who's going where!" I decided.


"Seriously?"


"Yes. Again lazy to think. Later at home has made my brain a bit moldy. I think I really need refreshing."


"OK. hmm.." Erlan seemed to think for a moment.


"What about the beach?" Erlan's proposal a few moments later.


"Beach? Rainbow beach?" Ask me to make sure.


"Yes. That's the place where the moment we both also La.. there was the first time I could kiss your forehead...remember the same OB children's party at that time?"


I remember that night. And yes. I clearly remember the time Erlan was running her dare stunt that Theo asked to kiss one of the women there. And that (not) lucky woman is me.


"Er.. Don't ah! It's raining season again. Later, we're stuck in sand mud on his beach, again!" Reject me then.


"Oh yeah. If so, we go to the playground, how about La?" Erlan's back.


"To the playground? You want to make sure I ride a bullala, right? Not ah. I'm afraid of heights!" Reject me again.


"It's not necessary to ride the ring also, La. although I also want to ride Laila.. uh, Adaw!"


I pinch Erlan and his mouth scratches it.


"No anyway! Change somewhere else!" I gave the order.


"To the Mall?"


"Wouldn't. I no longer work like this even you ajakin to the mall? That's right, Lan!" My dumel to Erlan.


"Lha, let's say you're unemployed, instead of your severance pay, La? Is her salary from Mama yesterday not big enough in your opinion?"


Asked about my severance pay from guarding Omah Ruth, I immediately gave a wide grin and was embarrassed.


"Big. big. But the money I've invested will be digital gold. So I can't wear a foya-foya!" Let me reason.


"Haishh.we go to the mall also do not have to shop La. We can go to his movie theater" Erlan gave another reason.


"Cinema? Hii. no ah! I remember the word Nunik. He said one of the media spread of HIV through the cinema, Lan!"


"Huh?! Yes?!" time?!" Erlan looked surprised.


"Yes! Nunik said. He had read on the forum medsos kayak kaskas, link in, and what else is it. So there are some people with HIV who are not responsible and feel revenge as people because they have stayed away from him who is sick with HIV. They keep needles that have been exposed to the blood of HIV-infected people in the cinema seats."


"What's right, La?"


"Don't know if it's true either. I said Nunik. And Nunik also read from the chat medsos aja. But there's no harm either, right, if we're more careful, Lan?"


"That means just rumors doang kan la. be careful the same rumors. It can mean true or not. Do not be mistaken to consider hoaks to be true news la. such a danger!" Erlan reprimanding.


I returned to shame.


"Yes. yes. I was wrong, but I am really lazy to go to the cinema, Lan. dear money. gocap only to watch 2 hours? still buying quota. You can watch any movie on HP. Aye right?" said I don't want to lose.


"Yes too.. Duh. So darling! Even though I have been imagining we see horror movies continue you who are afraid even hug my hands that, La! Hah.failing to be romantic-romantic with you.." Tell Erlan honestly.


I immediately looked at Erlan and her imagination that came back.


"Replace the place, ah!" Tell me to come back out.


"Where else huh. oh! To the zoo?"


"Who do you want to find? Your true best friend lives there?" I'm replying to tease Erlan.


"Damn it, you're La! Okay. To.. flower garden?"


"So lazy if the streets just look at the flowers doang! I don't think there's any other work!" I rejected Erlan's proposal.


"Where do you want to go, La? From my proposal you continue to reject. I'm running out of ideas so be it! Are you going to the hospital?" Erlan asked with a murmur.


"Date to the hospital?! Do you want to see the sick?" I rejected Erlan's proposal.


"I want to take your medicine, La! Pingin check your sanity rowdy. Adaw!"


I again pinched Erlan's arm quite hard. Damn it's really my lover's mouth.


"You said I wasn't sane, huh? If so, you are much more insane because you already like girls who are not sane!" I nagged while crossing my arms in front of my chest.


"Sorry, dear Laila. About it I've run out of ideas to take you where else!"


For a while, I thought in silence.


"Yes already. Date at home! Instead of dizzy thinking where to go!" My proposal later.


"Well.where are there people who date at home, La? There's also a name I say to your house. I guess now this is! Change the place!" Erlan's changed to reject my proposal.


"M. M. keep going where ya are, oh! How are we hiking to the top?!" My proposal excitedly.


"Hikings? You mean climbing mountains on foot?" Ask Erlan to make sure.


"Yes. I am very happy to climb the mountain. I haven't liked it in a long time!" I'm fantasizing.


"Duh.don't ya, honey. My heart is not strong if invited to climb the mountain.His strong just to climb you accuse! Laila.. Your pinch is so sick, huh, La!" Erlan rubbed her arm that I just pinched.


"Some of that, your mouth just scratched! Gini already is. We go fishing to the Pearl Lake! No more rejecting the proposal! Mumet my head thinks of a place to date doang!" My omel is long.


Erlan looked down while looking at me timidly.


"Excite.. Nagging.. His Majesty queen. kulo manut (i according).." seloroh his like a courtier.


One sec. Two seconds.


And in the third second, my anger disappeared instantly. Replaced by the amused taste in his heart for laughing at his attitude Erlan who looked like a husband who was afraid of his wife.


'What if we get married? He must be the husband who fears a real wife! Hihihi.. uh! Just thought what the hell am I?!'


My heart was caught off guard by my wild thoughts that had imagined me and Erlan getting married later.


Erlan looked at me confused. Maybe he saw me smiling and panicking by myself.


"What do you think, La?" Erlan asked curiously.


For a while I was in a fog thinking of a reply to Erlan's question. But as usual, again my mouth triggered an original reply that made me look foolish before Erlan.


"Thinking catfish in the lake!" Answer me origin.


"..."


"In the lake, where's the catfish, La?" Erlan asked then, looking at me strangely.
