I'm Not Your Choice

I'm Not Your Choice
CHAPTER 17



I walked out of Jess' Boutique..


back I remember, why Candra was so dependent on Cristin. Apparently this is the answer to everything.


I continued to walk to enjoy the atmosphere of the night a bit lengthened. return to the busway harmonio.din.din.din..din...diiinn...


It's a very siihhh car.I turned around...


"The nude lady(short, tends to be less in proportion) here goes in.."


"RIICCHHIEE.....!!" almost everyone looks towards me


The Dimsum resto


"you eat a lot too."


"gw laper kali. mumpung in the tract, I eat it. it's not Kost's son."


"ahahaa.eh for a while.(see Hp)" Richie was silent for a moment..


"Els...lo know where Candra is going?"


"Engga.gw it's the number in the same block he. want Wa ato tlp I can't. so manor.."


"Betc.this..." Richie showed me a photo of his phone.


Oh, my..!! Here's a photo of Candra with Cristin. enter the hotel, walk alone and cuddle on the street.


"nih Hp lo." I returned it to Richie.


"lo gapapa?"


"gw ga papa.malah I am still laper.hahaha.." I tried to laugh as hard as I could..


"When you send it to Gw. He's in Milan on vacation there."


"it's not Richie's business that we're getting married, but there are some restrictions that we shouldn't cross...


and one of these is. so...ehm.I asked for that photo.."


Richie sent the photo via the Whatsapp application.I must one day need this.


it feels strange in my heart, a little pierced and my breath becomes heavy when I look at this photo again.


"by the way.lo don't want to work at the Four Seasons Hotel, they need finance. because there is a complete overhaul in their internals."


pretty good offer. I've been 3 years stuck this position, I'm saturated.


"but I want to get married, and Miss Amel will also be on maternity leave next month.lmposible Richie.but let me try it first."


"Well.oia if there is a friend you need apartment rental. said I yes.I have one empty unit.in the kemayoran area anyway..."


"i'll rent..dapet discount?"


Richie stopped eating, "you can stay at Candra kali. ngirit lo, mumpung dapet free place to stay."


"make care of it." I replied finishing my noodles and Dimsum.


*****


I lay in my bed. My mind floated remembering the fitting of the shirt.


'actually.richie is pretty good, I'll marry Candra..'


--------


"Eld...Sorry if I was sassy. if I met you more cepet, I think I would marry you aja"

"eh.it's a spit."


I immediately drank the cold ocha. "uhuk....lo crazy what's trance???"

"already.lo gausah sok ngelantur ya.."

lzz...bzzz...


hp Elsa rang continuously.either too tired or full.he did not realize, until finally Elsa woke up at 09.00 am...


sitting on his bed. Elsa stretches her hands and back.."aaaahh."


take the HP on the table.."ha! 20 missed call..(id caller application) all from Candra..??


since when did he not block my number again...?"


bzzz...bzzz...."Hello?"


"SHOT OPEN THE DOOR TO LOO!!!!"


phone closed.'why this guy, abis street with his girlfriend so sensi..'


I walked open the door to my room. I saw Candra, why she was so bright and handsome this morning.


"please.." I shifted backwards so Candra could get in..


Candra walked in, carrying a lot of grocery bags. Candra saw the situation around.no chairs, she immediately sat on the edge of Elsa's bed.


"Candra..what's the matter, why is the morning until my boarding house..?" Elsa rubbed her eyes and her life was not fully conscious.


"this is a gift from Cristin, he said you should wear it on the bridal night, but I can't open it."


I just nodded my head. Lean on Candra's front dresser.


"this is also there by - by. gw yesterday from Milan the same Cristin. I want you have a bag already started to have to change. This I have bought a bag, same brown clothes.


his clothes can be kasi for mama, kakak sm in-law lo too.


Oia I forgot, these shoes are from the designer shoes. He said he couldn't come, so he sent this as a gift.


I saw the contents of the work shoes, so I think you need this. and.this is a gift from whom, I do not know the name.


You're sent to the office I. you open it.."


I picked up a small box that read 'Happy Wedding'. My face was indeed upset with Candra.


I opened the ribbon and the box....Cartier Bracelet.Its Tiff and Co..


there's a letter in it...


'Forgive me, I could never and dared to directly apologize for what I had done.


I'm also not Gentle enough to admit if I've played back with you.


but I'm happy, you got men like Candra..


you no longer have to work too hard.


you can enjoy your life.


Happy Elsa...


Jimmy.'s...'


Candra pulled the paper.I was shocked and Candra started reading.


I took the bracelet.It was so beautiful. Its luster could make my eyes hypnotized.


I tried the bracelet.so fitting, I tried to remember...


when we (jimmy and I) were still together, we went to the mall and walked into the jewelry store, and I wanted this bracelet..


but at that time our money was the same - neither was there, so we went out and forgot about the bracelet.


"anyways, I promise. someday I'll give the bracelet to you dear.and you have to promise to nyimpen it yes." Jimmy spoke while holding my hand.


I looked at Jimmy and replied "yes baby, but don't forget your duty as a child to your parents."


we then smile and continue our path.'---


Candra stood near me, standing right in front of me. He saw the bracelet.."lo still want to make it?"


"yes, this bracelet I've wanted from the first.gep aja this wedding gift for me."


mimic Candra's face was upset. "And I carry so many hands, none of which you touch? you still weigh as much as this bracelet?"


"Candra's sick.please.lepasin hand gw..."


Candra regained her senses and let go of my left hand.I walked to sit on the edge of my bed..


I opened one by one what Candra had brought. Now came the gift from Cristin. I opened slowly, the contents.'s satin nightgown with a low cleavage, long shirt fitting on my waist.'


"it's also good to wear it if you like." Candra smiled mischievously at me.


I got up to my feet leaving Candra, and then Candra pulled my waist down, forcing me to sit on her lap.


his face is so close to me. I can feel his heartbeat....


his face felt closer and closer.then our lips meet, shed each other kangen between us.


candra's touch seemed to imply something, she did not fully vent her desire to meet me.


"reply honestly Els.why did you meet Richie.."


"iiiyaahh...Ca....candra.." I stammered - brick and weight answered.


Candra let go of her crib, sat on my bed. "let's get up!!"


I sat down and started to catch my breath.


"you are deaf or stupid !" Candra raised her tone.


"you mean What??"


"i've told you to keep your distance from Richie. He's a bad guy, you know he impregnates stella but also carries stella and the baby in his womb into death.."


"you mean??"


Candra sits down to pick up her phone, opens the gallery.The wedding photo shows Richie. "this is Richie's wife?"


"yes....Stella Dawrin.they married by force for fear that their adult videos were spread. Shortly after marriage, Richie bought Stella a car.


when Stella went shopping alone with the car, they had a terrible accident...


police investigation results, car brakes and fuel cables there is sabotage, so stop and burn out the car."


"..."


"Richie was the sole suspect at the time, but never did Richie admit it was his act, so that Stella's insurance fell to Richie.


I think that's karma for what Richie's family did to me and Hangga..!"


"what am I related to?"


Candra glared at me, "you're a fool huh, he's a bad guy!"


"what's different about you?"


"what do you mean???!"


I folded my arms over my chest. "yes you're getting married, but you're busy traveling with Cristin.


and she's a man's wife, while you're a man's fiancee too !! about Richie or karma or something, out of your bussineess Candra.lo ain't better than him.."


"you're Jealous?"


elsa's face reddened, "engga.cuman gw rich do not have the self-esteem you know?"


"If it's for sure who told you.oke.I did go with Cristin.but this is what I mean know your Boundaries."


"My boundary?" Elsa scrunched her forehead.


"yes.you know the contents of the contract if it is forbidden to interfere in each other's affairs.this is one of them."


"then I also have the right dong.you can't ban me!"


"it applies only to the first party that is me. You have absolutely no rights whatsoever, except the right to receive money from me every month. only 2 things! Understand!"


I was silent without a word. I only had 2 Rights from Candra. but she gave me so many restrictions.


Selfish!


sneaky!


Wicked!


****


That morning we had to come to church, and to our reception venue as well as the final fitting with Jess..


"you're dreaming of Els. Tomorrow is the day, don't think much." Jess tidied up the dress I was wearing.


"VIRGIN....PAWKY...NAWAT!!!" Candra's driver got into Bridal Jess.


"Young master, sorry I got a phone call from a decorator.they asked the photo prewedding master is not there?"


Candra looked straight at the driver and then smacked his forehead." I forgot."


Candra forgets that we have never taken a photo together, let alone a pre-wedding photo! I thought we weren't going to take pictures.


"You've got a picture now, Jess.you have a private photographer, right, call him...


later then..Mr. Ojik(Supir) Please lend or find a photo property..


we'll take a photo of Jess in it,???" I put on a hard look.....


"wowmahghh!! yaudah.do not put on a look like it dong....


cepet...Dayang - Dayang..we have a project 1000 Candi!!" Jess clapped her hands to call her men all..


we took pictures in the Bridal Jess area, starting from the sofa waiting room, window corner, to the jess closet which is a lot of glass...


"it takes the last yes.lo rich swooping Elsa from the front, keep you want to nyium him.ga really try to kiss gapapa.." Rianty directs our style...


"lo really kiss him too gapapa.." jes smiled at us.


finished the photo event. "this is the Master data and I've edited as much as I can. So, you can use it for tomorrow. Please give your decorator aja."


Rianty gave Flash Disk Mr. Ojik, "well thanks ya neng. I went nail ojol first


fear of not being hunted. non Elsa, the car keys I have already given to Young Master."


"Okay Mr. Ojik, thank you. Father of hearts." Mr. ojik left us.


I walked out looking for candra. well.that's her on the side with Jason.I tried eavesdropping on their conversation, though,.


"So fix this, you marry that girl?"


"according lo? Papa's choice, yes I've just followed him anyway with my marriage he, then I split. status I'll be as rich as Cristin. and Cristin have nothing to be ashamed of anymore."


jason lit a slim cigarette Esse brand, "Lo why the hell, still think Cristin.lo have a good woman - both independent as well as him, do not depend on the same lo. if about the face sm the body, sm the body, could be a little polish. After all, he also lost face to Cristin, but Elsa was bosenin."


"you think? I feel indebted to Cristin. He was there when I was at the point of falling.but when he was in the position of gw..gw......


I instead handed him over to marry the gatel widower. I want to make amends."


"Keep that you should marry c Cristin? you can time Can, find something else.you're good friends with Cristin."


"yes! I've got to marry Cristin. right away!"


"you never ask if she's happy with her husband? who knows they really love each other, there are some people who have an interest in the opposite sex is much older.


maybe Cristin is so. if this Bini lo, he's not....."


"He just needs money. I don't think in his heart he's anything but money.."


"you mean??" Jason was curious.


"Gw from the first meet sorry.began deket until I slept with him first. He's in his family's financial problems. Even I want him often do not eat to ngirit money.


I gave him a lot of money, and I forgot how much. But I realize.gw don't want him to laugh.


God has met me again with him..." Candra looks at the night sky of Jakarta.


"lo sober? The universe is asking you to come back with him. My advice, try to open your heart kasian Elsa she is really loyal to you.


and I can see him love lo."


"if she loves but I ga? I want to go back. I'm so tired of photos." Candra walked inside.


Elsa stood behind the door....Candra opened the door.and..."You here?"


Elsa raised her head, while wiping away her tears. "Yes.ayo back....I'm so tired..." Elsa walks out to Candra's car...


Elsa was standing at the left car door. "His key? you're not going back?" Candra shuts up and catches up with Elsa..


"Gw back to Jas..bye.."


"thank you, Jess, go back..." Elsa hands Jason.."Heart - Heart.." Jason replied...


"he's a poor woman, loves a hard-hearted man." Rianty's riding the bike.."Jes, isn't it the same as me?"


"Eh wait a minute dear dong.aku the same key turn off the lights first.." Rianty waited for Jason on his motorbike...
