Love Alone

20. Lunch Together

Gita and Dandy finally head to a cafe not far from campus. Both have no means of transportation in the city. The existing transportation equipment is enough to provide comfort, so decide it is better to use public transportation than to buy. They think in this town it won't be long.

"Lo's plan after graduation what, hm?" dandy asked Gita as soon as they sat in the corner of the cafe.

They chose to sit in a corner for comfort.

"Take specialization, let it go home take care of the parents' hospital." replied Gita as it is.

"Lo's parents have a hospital?"

Gita nodded her head at Dandy's question.

"Want to go to medical school. There is a basic family." Dandy spoke with a face of admiration.

"Not really! The hospital was just for my brother. Both my parents were just oil palm farmers. My former sister-in-law is a doctor." explained Gita while sucking her drink.

"Ang? How many brothers are you?" ask Dandy enthusiastically.

"Why are you interrogating me?" Gita asked Dandy with her eyebrows together.

"Sorry! There is no meaning, just want to know more closely with Lo aja," replied Dandy.

Actually, Dandy was interested in Gita since they met and became acquainted, during a student exchange moment that time. But he did not dare to approach because the Gita was always cold and flat. Gita never wanted to tell me about anything she had been through. He had changed a lot since Brandon asked him to be independent and not to trouble others.

"Know closer? Meanin?"

"We're not family here, there's no harm if we're close friends. Think of it as family!" dandy's alibi to get close to the Gita.

"Oh? Ok!" gita answered briefly because she actually objected but had no reason to refuse.

Dandy's forehead crinkled at Gita's short answer. His mind was filled with question marks because only this time he met a girl who was not approachable.

After finishing their meal, Dandy was inspired to pay for all their orders.

Dandy just waved his hand to keep Gita sitting on the spot.

"Who pays doesn't matter! Only occasionally this. Don't be afraid someday I'll get paid!" dandy said with a smile after paying their food bills.

"I don't feel good. We are still both asking for parents so it is better to pay alone. Another case if you have worked, I will be happy to accept a treat from you." said Gita felt bad if the meal was read by someone else, said Gita, moreover, the person was still asking from the old man.

"Just calm! This money is purely my own. Since college I've never asked my parents for money."

Gita looked round her eyes in disbelief.

"It's normal to have the expression on his face!" dandy said with a laugh.

They walk out of the cafe, Dandy forcing to drive Gita to the apartment he occupies.

Gita bought a small apartment as her residence while in Melbourne. Gita deliberately bought an apartment because he was lazy if later he had to move often. With no money supply, Gita desperate to buy an apartment. Although he had advised his parents not to send money monthly, but the father always transferred some money to his only child.

Finally they arrived at Gita's apartment.

"Wanna stop by?" bargain Gita while opening the door of her apartment.

"If it's not disturbing." replied Dandy with a fluffy smile as he managed to get close to Gita.

"If only for a moment, don't bother. I have to go to the hospital in an hour. I got a night shift this week" Gita explained, letting Dandy in.

"Sorry, my place is just like this. Far from fancy!" he said when it appeared to him that Dandy scanned the entire room he had just entered.

"That's a girl, huh?" chirp Dandy commented on the atmosphere of the room he had just stepped on.

"The name of the female occupant, cook the atmosphere of a man!" gita protests.

"It's too cold to be a girl. Who would have thought if the residence is girly. Right?" said Dandy who immediately made Gita's face immediately blushed.
