I Want to Be Loved

Open your Heart

Flora and Gio gawked at the place they wanted to go to full of visitors, not even a single empty seat.

"Why so many?" muttered Gio.

Flora was also upset. "And I really want to eat ice cream in this place" said Flora.

"We'll just find somewhere else" Gio suggested.

"It sure wouldn't be the same as this place." Flora clicked annoyed.

"I know a place where we can eat good ice cream" Gio said.

"Ck, okay .. come on," replied Flora.

Flora and Gio left the ice cream shop inside the shopping mall. They went back to where Flora's car was parked. They both got into the same car. Gio takes over the wheel of Flora's car and drives off the place.

"Where are we going?" ask Flora.

"Eat the ice cream" said Gio.

"Ck, I know that" said Flora followed by a small laugh of Gio.

After circling the streets, Gio stopped his car in front of a cafe.

"We just eat here" said Gio.

Flora looked at the place they were coming to. Pretty crowded.

"Did you come here often?" ask Flora.

"Only occasionally," Gio replied as he opened the circular seatbelt on his body.

Flora did the same thing and then followed Gio down from the car. Both of them stepped towards the cafe and chose to sit outside the cafe.

"The place is comfortable too!" flora.

"Yes, the place is simple but comfortable!" gio.

"You come here often?" ask Flora.

"I'm equally papa used to come here a lot, but it's been a long time" said Gio.

Gio waved his hand to call a cafe waiter. Not long after the cafe waiter came with a menu book.

"What do you want ice cream to taste?" ask Gio.

"I want 2 cups of ice cream each 3 flavors, chocolate, strawberry, and taro" said Flora.

"What! You want to eat that much?" Plainly Flora nodded.

"You want more of yourself!" gio Sembur.

"Come it's really good, Gio," whined Flora.

"No!" Gio took the menu book from Flora's hand and Gio changed his gaze to the cafe's waiter. "Sir, give him one cup with the taste he asks for."

"But ...."

"Ssthth ...." Gio put his index finger on Flora's lips. "No protest."

Flora folded her hands in front of her chest while pursing her lips.

"Come on, my dear don't snack like this." Gio was embracing Flora's shoulders. "I can't stand to see you like this, you look even more adorable" whispered Gio.

Flora put away Gio's hand that was embracing the shoulder. "Do you do this to all women?"

"Come on Flora, you ask or you're teasing me" said Gio. Flora's laughter exploded seeing the cute expression on Gio's face.

Not long after the ice cream they ordered came. The cafe waiter put the ice cream they ordered. Flora clapped her small hands and exclaimed as she looked at the ice cream that looked so delicious. Without waiting any longer, Flora immediately ate the ice cream order.

"It's so delicious!" flora.

Gio smiled looking at Flora's cheerful face. "You likey?"

Flora nodded quickly.

"I like the ice cream too, but I like your smile better." Gio blinked one eye to tease Flora.

"Hey, that's dong's conditioned eye." Flora turned her face the other way to cover up her nervousness.

"Flora can I ask you a question?" ask Gio.

"Hmmm, what do you want to ask?" flora.

"You really want to forget Daniel?" ask Gio.

Flora stopped feeding the ice cream into her mouth. For a moment Flora did not say anything to Gio. It was obvious that Flora was thinking about something.

"Yes, I want to be able to forget him" Flora said. "If it's so hard."

Flora continued to look at Gio's face as she said that sentence. Seen seriousness on his face.

"What are you thinking, my dear?" ask Gio.

"You!" sahut Flora tnpa shifted his gaze from Gio's face.

"Me! What do you think of me?" Gio stuffed a scoop of ice cream into his mouth.

"Everything" said Flora who immediately stopped Gio's movement.

Gio turned his head towards Flora making his gaze meet with Flora.

"Why do you love me so much and since when?" ask Flora without cutting off that view.

"I can't answer because I don't know the answer myself" Gio said without taking his eyes off.

"Why are you asking like that? Do you intend to make me your runner?" ask Gio.

Flora was silent, she was at a loss to say what. But Flora did not have time to answer, Gio first put out his words.

"No problem, I wouldn't mind it." Gio scooped a scoop of ice cream and thrust it in front of Flora's lips. "But when I get your heart, don't expect you to run away from me, Flora."

Flora smiled as if mocking herself. Seeing that Gio put back the spoon he held onto his ice cream cup and then grasped Flora's hand.

"You still don't trust me, Flora?" ask Gio.

Flora shook her head, "It's not like that. It's just ...."

He's a play boy, surely he also has many ways to seduce a woman.

That sentence that always appeared in Flora's mind made Flora dismiss all of Gio's feelings for her.

"What is it?"

"You only have a lot of girlfriends." Flora immediately chuckled after saying that sentence.

"Flora .. Don't joke." Gio put the ice cream back in his mouth.

"You want to accept me, then how's your family, Gio?"

"My father just wants you to be his son rather than me." Gio's face was pinched.

"Why? What if I become your stepmother?" flora Ledek.

"Bare you but that .. I'll kidnap you on your wedding day" Gio replied.

Flora immediately chuckled after hearing Gio's words. "You're this .. you bad boy."

The thing that can never be done with Daniel, Flora could lalukan with Gio. The man gave her many things that made her have a reason to laugh. Even Flora felt like herself being with Gio and felt very comfortable being with him.

Flora stopped her laughter as she watched Gio continue to look at herself with a smile painted on her lips.

"What's wrong?" ask Flora.

"I'm happy if you laugh like this" said Gio.

"My cream is over. Can we go home now?" Flora showed her smile to Gio.

"Sure!" Gio called a cafe waiter to pay for his order's ice cream bill.

"Yeah!" Gio extended his hand towards Flora and the girl accepted.

The two of them got out of the chair and stepped into the car with their hands together. Gio opened the car door for Flora. As Flora was about to get into the car, her phone suddenly rang. Flora reached into her bag to retrieve her phone. Daniel's name is on his phone screen. There was doubt in Flora to accept the call.

"Why not get caught?" ask Gio.

Flora looked at Gio at a glance then took her breath before deciding to take a call from her lover.

"Hello," said Flora when the call was connected.

"What are you doing? I'm sorry I was so busy I just got in touch with you" Daniel said from across the line.

"It's okay" said Flora.

"What are you doing?" reset Daniel.

"I ...." Flora looked towards Gio. "I'm with Gio. We just ate ice cream" continued Flora.

Gio was happy to hear that.

"Daniel, I'll hang up first. I'm going home." Flora hung up on him without waiting for Daniel's next words.

Flora reinserted her phone from inside her bag along with a clear liquid coming out of her eyes. Gio immediately wiped away the tears that fell onto Flora's cheek and pulled her into his arms.

"Quickly pull me out of my relationship with Daniel, before I get any further on Daniel." One kiss Gio gave to Flora's forehead.
