Love Will Bring You Back

Love Will Bring You Back
7. You Are My Savior



In the afternoon at 16:00 Sabrina contacted Soffie's phone while at the office and invited Soffie after work to accompany her shopping at Semanggi Paza because she got a shopping voucher there. Soffie felt bad about rejecting her aunt's invitation so she accepted Sabrina's invitation to go shopping and meet in Semanggi this afternoon. Aunt Sabrina was so kind and invited her to help spend the shopping voucher.


“Phi... You choose her clothes dear!


“Thank you aunt, ntar yes if anyone Soffie likes,” replied Soffie while looking at clothes.


"It's good, right, phi? Said aunty while attaching a dress to her body.


Aunt Sabrina's body was tiny and she still looks young and impressed as well as her niece Soffie. Sabrina is 34 years old and Soffie is 27. They don't look like aunts and nieces but like brothers and sisters.  Their faces are equally beautiful.


"good with aunt..," Soffie replied sincerely.


Soffie does not want her aunt to buy clothes for her because now she thinks Soffie has worked and can afford it. Sabrina used to send clothes from Singapore while she was in college and often gave her allowance. Only now did he feel uneasy about Aunt Sabrina because of Ardi's problem. He was confused about himself. He wants Ardi with him but he feels bad and guilty for aunt Sabrina.


“Phi.. You tell me about Ardi's past on campus first. "Sabrina's search while checking the clothes in the store.


“ Emm... actually I am not too familiar with kok aunt.. Ardi first.. uh means om Ardi.. sorry aunt.... I am not used to it, ”Kataku honest.


“Gak papa Darling... aunty understand…


“I used to know Om Ardi was busy studying S2 while being a lecturer assistant and after that he worked aunty night, so he was very busy auntie, so he was very busy, He rarely participated in student activities because he was busy looking for money. His life to work, because he must be responsible to his sisters. ” said I tried to explain in general about Ardi's activities in the campus.


“Kalo is Ardi's girlfriend, you know what, Phi?


Deg..apa aunty already know it.. or aunty strong feelings how this.  What if aunt Sabrina found out that Ardi had been to see her this afternoon and we even had a meal together. What if aunt Sabrina found out she was going to be divorced because she wanted to be with me.   Did Ardi tell her his relationship with her.     O Lord, help me. I'm sorry, I can't be honest with you Aunt Sabrina.  I'm sorry, aunt.


“Sorry aunt, Soffie gk knows her personal life, Om Ardi. Soffie wasn't familiar in college, "My answer was lying.


“No papa , baby.  What did you know about Ardi in college?


“Sembling Soffie…. Om it's got a lot of younger siblings to finance his life and everything has to be taken care of by Om, and he's still an assistant lecturer to finance also S2 college , auntie....."Soffie explained back safely and not completely lying.


“Iya phi, so when he started working in Singapore, he was very troubled because the cost there was expensive and the campus scholarship was very mediocre, Not to mention that Ardi scholarship money was used to finance his younger siblings. Finally Aunt invited him to stay in the Apartment to reduce Ardi's expenses. Aunty had lived with Ardi before we got married ,phi.. uh, you don't tell your mama yach dear. about Ardi who lives in a auntie's place.


Deg. Oh they were together before marriage.it is fitting that he forgets me so quickly.  You Ardi liar. He said it was because he was drunk. I don't think Aunt Sabrina could have lied to me. He said asking me to wait for him for a year is a liar! But why Ardi to the heart to lie to me again, this afternoon he was so sincere to tell me. Oh ... stupid me.


“Iya aunty, I will not say mama kok about aunt and om Ardi.


“ Ardi is younger than aunty, phi....makanya aunt, want you to tell me about Ardi's life first...he likes women like what? Is he a playboy or how. uh not to know he's a good guy and hard worker . oh his fun!' Said aunt Sabrina with great joy.


Oh.. God, I'm sorry I'm so good at lying. If aunt Sabrina knew who Ardi's lover used to be, I guess auntie was mad at me. Akh. I observed the happy look on my aunt's face. How would aunty feel knowing that I was Ardi's lover in the past. Even Ardi met me at the office and asked me to get married next year. But is that Ardi's lie again. I have to ask him.


“Phi.. ntar Ardi picked us up here, we eat first aja yach.... You want to eat what baby?" Said Soffie who had finished shopping and left the store.


“No aunt, I eat at home only. pity my mother at home. "refuse me smooth.


“Hey, aunty already called your mama that we're going for a walk and we're going to take you home , baby...... Already yes...we eat what is delicious..” Sabrina said while walking and see many cafes and restaurants to be selected for dinner.


Well how is it me, what if I'm with Aunt Sabrina and Ardi.  What if we get caught...  I can't see their togetherness.    God ... I can't see them together. I'm jealous of my aunt. How is this?  I have to find a way not to go home with them.  Lord .. help me.. I must how this …. The idea quickly came up. Soffie kept thinking in an emergency.


:’Phi.. What do you want to eat? " ask Sabrina who erased Soffie's daydream.


" It's up to my aunt…. Soffie agrees,” I told a lie while looking for a way to get away from aunt Sabrina.


Suddenly I saw there, from where I was standing, I saw the face of a handsome and kind-hearted black-clothed man. He helped me a long time ago, hopefully he will help me again. Soffie feels she has one chance to escape the company of herself and her aunt Sabrina.


“Sister David... Brother David..,” I said shouting and waving.


The man looked up and smiled. He approached me who was standing across from the fried chicken restaurant.


“hey.. Soffie.. Why is Elo here? " ask David kindly.


“Where are you going?  I was with my sister, yes.“ Soffie said quickly and she ignored aunt Sabrina who was watching David and Soffie's interaction.


Immediately I touched David's suit and I looked into his eyes and blinked at him giving the code invisible to Aunt Sabrina. David was amazed at my behavior. And it seems David understands that Soffie needs his help.


“Oke, Come, phi..”Said David while pulling my hand and embracing my shoulder walking with him and leaving aunt Sabrina. Soffie smiles and feels happy because David saved me from Ardi and Sabrina together. Oh David ….You are my Savior.


“ Dagh aunt... Soffie first yach...maaf gk can nemenin aunt eat.


“Be careful Soffie, call aunt after home!


Huff . And I hold David's arm . We walked away from Aunt Sabrina who was still looking at me. David didn't turn me down and even helped me get away from Aunt Sabrina. What a kind man.


“Thanks yes brother, helped me earlier. That brother saved me. Brother David .... You are my Savior" I said with a smile on David.


David looked at Saffie half in disbelief. He said I was his savior. He just asked her to leave the woman.


"Well..that's why I'm called the Savior..What if I do great things for elo,phi?


"Yes.the pokonya today brother actually saved me.


“My aunt invited me to meet someone I didn't want to meet. Good thing there is brother David passing by, so ..I ask help Brother David only. sorry brother David, from the past I often troublesome …..Fortunately, I understood my code…


“Gue thought earlier elo sore eyes..ha….


"ishhhh. David.


“Elo where are you going now?


“home sis... I say yes, go to Trans Jakarta stop, that way…. Thanks for the help


“hei.why not go home with me, Ayok I take you…


“Not brother..  Brother saved me earlier. Brother David is my savior “Kataku again with a smile.


David smiles and is happy to hear Soffie's gaze towards him.


“Already yes brother... I'm there. want to go to the Jakarta trans stop. Adios..


“OK, Soffie. Be carefull!


In Soffie's view, David still looks cool, nice and warm like their meeting 10 years ago . Must be Happy woman who became the wife of Brother David. Huff.. Forget your first love, Soffie. Too far away your caste. He was a rich man who was kind and not arrogant. He just thinks you're his best friend's sister who needs to be helped.


David smiled at Soffie who was running leaving him towards the gate of Plaza Semanggi. Soffie is very attractive and adorable in her opinion. Maybe he could get closer to the girl.  His bike Soffie is a nice girl who won't do as much as the girls he knew before.  How does she approach Soffie, if her brother doesn't like her close to his cute sister.


 


****


Ting! Whats app notification tone reads. Soffie who just came out of the bathroom immediately took her phone. Seen several messages and 1 message from an unknown number and seen picture at the end of the message.  The Face of David. Where did David find out my number, Soffie thought, there's no way Sonny would tell him.


‘After home, phi?"


‘Sister David. I got home safely. Does your brother know my number?


‘Kan elo time to the office, there is guest data that you fill. I just take it.  Why else?


‘Newly finished shower brother. What's up, brother?


‘Tomorrow elo why go home from work ? The road is the same as me.


‘Tomorrow no overtime. sorry.

'‘Saturday there was a meeting with my gang friends.  We have been together for a long time.


‘When do you have time for me?

‘Oks I wait. but don't be long donk phi…

‘Henry's elo's girlfriend?


‘Not brother. Already yes, brother, sleepy it is already night.


‘Oke.. I'm waiting for elo call ya!


'Yes brother.. Good night brother David.


"elo is also Soffie, I'm waiting for you, phi!


 


*****


Ardi smiled when he arrived at the parking lot and read whatsapp Sabrina's message informing him that he was waiting at a restaurant in Plaza Semanggi. His heart was overjoyed at thinking Ardi could have dinner with his girlfriend, Soffie. Sabrina did not say that Soffie had just returned home with her male friend. When he arrived at the table where Sabrina was, he was surprised that Sabrina was just sitting by herself.


"where's Soffie, Sa? You said we'd eat together and then take Soffie home" asked Ardi to open the conversation.


"he met his friend... David brought her home together. I think Soffie is very happy to meet David and he immediately went home in a hurry..


" Oh ...


Ardi is disappointed to hear Sabrina saying that Soffie is coming home with her male friend. Ardi thought Soffie was happy to meet him as she felt. Why wouldn't Soffie wait for her and go home with another man, but was Soffie avoiding her?  Soffie said this afternoon she wanted to wait and give me a chance. Did Soffie tell you about the past with Sabrina? But Sabrina was ordinary and her expression did not show anything strange.   Could it.... Soffie doesn't like seeing herself with Sabrina?
