Love is Not Finished

CHAPTER 126: The New Cafe

Magrib is over.

I've been getting ready and waiting for Bram on the front porch.

Not long after, Bram arrived. He got out of the car and approached me.

"Assalammu'alaikum,"

"Waa'alaikum hail" I replied.

"How can you wait outside? Not bitten by mosquitoes?"

"Yes, the mosquito Brother, he.he." I said.

"Yes, yes" Bram smiled.

"You're ready, right? I got permission from Om and Aunt" Bram took me inside.

I called Papa and Mama to see Bram.

"Good night Om, Auntie. I'm going to take Zanu out tonight" Bram said.

"Please Bram, but don't go home too late" my father replied.

"Yes Om, at most about two hours, God willing I deliver back Zanu safe until home,"

Papa and Mama nodded. Bram and I got out of the house and into Bram's car.

Tumben My mother did not give time, even manut obey Bram, hi.hi.hi..

In the car, I was anxious to ask something about Lutfa to Bram. But I'm afraid it's upsetting Bram's mind on our second date.

"What's the matter, baby, quiet from now on? Is there something you're thinking about?" bram asked to look at me.

"Well, I'm afraid it's like you're thinking big brother," I hesitated to explain.

"Let's just tell me, it's okay. I'm used to having a lot of problems,"

"Gini, this afternoon abis home from the showroom, Papa ngerem suddenly almost hit people. And it turns out that guy was Lutfa, I was shocked dong. Why would that Lutfa be in this town? I was scared," I explained.

"Yeah? As far as I know he has no brothers or family in this town. Is it possible to go on vacation or meet his friends, could it be?" Bram tried to comfort me with his positive statement.

"He brought a Bodyguard, the same as when we met in the campus cafeteria at that time. Papa said, The bodyguard explained that Lutfa came out without their knowledge. Why try, she's out alone in a wheelchair? He has a Bodyguard ready to help him,"

"Darling, are you thinking?" ask Bram.

"Well, who knows if he wants revenge on me,"

"Alright, if you feel any misgivings, I have the members investigate. After all you have a bodyguard too, the difference is they only monitor from afar,"

"Yeah? Still been? How long will the bodyguard look after me?" my many.

"Suntil I get back to you. Now that we forget about this, I want to talk about your new car. Congratulations, "Bram smiled.

"Congratulations to what, sister?"

"You've got a car and I'm not worried about seeing you ride an angkot, bus or motorcycle. Where's your car?"

"There's in my garage, you fit two cars,"

"Okay, tomorrow so will you learn to drive?" ask Bram again.

"So, noon hour. Brother wants to go home?"

"Yes, but abis ashar. Tomorrow we go out again, I want to play on the beach with you, can't we?"

"Ready Miss. Oiya, where are we going?"

"There's a new cafe open, we'll just go there,"

"OK, lets go," Bram added to his speed.

*********

Bram's car goes into the cafe courtyard and parking in a place that has been provided. We go down and immediately look for a comfortable seat that is on the edge of the pool.

Because the cafe is still new, all the goods that are there look all kinclong. This cafe is a recommendation from my brother Zuri.

"Please Bang, Ma'am, in the message first," one of the waiters handed out the menu book, paper and pen.

Bram. We ordered the food on the menu. Bram and I ordered fried rice and orange juice, plus milk coffee. The little paper we handed over to the waiter who was waiting for our order.

"Zanu, tomorrow do not forget to submit a copy of your ktp yes, all family cards. Tomorrow someone will take care of your land letter in town B. Later, your land will be planted with rambutan and I will also make a small cottage near the garden for you to rest. Who planted and keep your garden there are already people," explained Bram.

"Huh?! Until that detail, brother takes care of it? Later if you come to America, still someone takes care of?" my many.

"Remain Zanu. Even if I am not there, your garden still takes care of it. Except at your own request to stop it. If you can't let go until I see you again, even for years. That's my message" Bram seriously explained it to me. But his statement surprised me.

"Cock? Why did you say years? Don't you think my parents don't like me? Why must it be years, do we not meet for a long time?"

"Yes Zanu, the odds are like that. I'm sorry," Bram bowed.

"Excuse me Bang" said two servants who were carrying our orders.

The waiter placed the food on the table. When they finished, they went to the kitchen cafe.

Bram and I started eating. There is not much that we indulge in while eating is still ongoing.

********

Bram and I finished eating. Bram relax for a moment sipping milk coffee. Sometimes I see things around. Suddenly I saw Lutfa and his bodyguard walk into the cafe. Since the current occupied place was covered in curtains, Lutfa would not clearly see the two of us in this cafe.

"Sister! It's Lutfa!" I called out to Bram by touching his shoulder.

"Where?" Bram was shocked by the info I gave him.

"That! He looked around the place again. Lho.lho, he wants to go through here, sister, how is this?" I panicked and confused.

"Just relax, baby, we'll just sit facing the pool, let him not see it" Bram replied casually.

I quickly changed position. Somehow Bram hugged my shoulder from behind and he smiled. I can't avoid Bram's behavior because Lutfa's almost past us.

As Lutfa was passing, I pushed Bram away.

"What the hell! It's called taking a chance in narrowness" I grumbled.

"It's okay, just hug your shoulders. Let our acting be natural" seduced Bram with triumphant smiles.

"No need to hug everything!" I'm still pouting.

Bram ruffled my bangs.

"Already, I'm sorry if the action made you angry. But I'm happy even if you consider it a chance at narrowness. Since we're not together for two more days, I'd love to tease you and make you frown so. So it looks funny and adorable, just like when we first met and the next meeting. Maybe, if we meet again, things will be different. Udah, we go home yok," Bram's eyes began to glaze over, he paled by taking me home.

I just followed Bram's hand and somehow I didn't care about Lutfa's presence in the cafe. My feelings changed, afraid I would lose Bram.

Or fear Bram will never come back again.
