Luciana Beautiful

POV Lusiana: all attention to me

In the eyes of Hendra I found seriousness in his speech.

But where could I possibly give him a chance.

Not anything else his father Hendra has opposed the feelings of his son, especially if we have started a relationship.

I am indeed a simple girl who has nothing, but I uphold my pride.

I can't "begging" for love for a man, even if he admits that he loves me.

No one should step on my pride, not that I am arrogant but this is a principle.

Moreover, I am a woman.I will sacrifice everything to maintain my pride, including if my work will be at stake.

" Lus...you heard what I said, why are you quiet?" mas Hendra broke my daydream.

" Yes Mas, Mas Hendra should do what Papa Mas Hendra said, do not involve Lusi," I said finally.

" But Lus, I don't love Firda..Would you watch me go through my marriage with someone I don't love?" Mas Hendra looked at me with a glare.

I let out a long sigh, I felt a little sorry to see Hendra's gaze.

" I'm sorry Mas Hendra, Lusi felt inappropriate for Mas Hendra to love.I'm just an ordinary girl Mas."

" Why not deserve Lus? love does not look at status" he answered.

" But love alone is not enough.There must be the blessing of Mas Hendra's parents." I replied.

" I know Lus, then please give me a chance to soften your heart, I will try" said Mas Hendra seriously.

" We are friends with Mas Hendra, even if later in the day we match.then I will accept it," I said to him.

" While our relationship remains like this, I don't want to worry my family" she said.

I would not have made my mother and my brothers worried, had Papa Hendra gone any further to me. Not only would I have accepted the consequences but my family would have borne them.

Not because I was afraid, but what I thought the most about was the feeling of my mother, the mother who would be the most sad if anything happened to me, her beloved youngest daughter.

Mas Hendra took a deep breath...

" Well then you want Lus, I respect whatever your decision is" said mas Hendra.

" All I ask is not to stay away from me because papa, I want us to stay close even if only as a friend," said Mas Hendra again.

I nodded my head.

Mama then came, it seemed like mama had finished cooking.

" Lus...Son Hendra we eat yuk..," take mama.

" Aunty cook fish shady, chicken soy sauce, the same ground spices." (a typical Bangka cuisine that contains vegetables such as cucumbers, half-cooked papaya, yam leaves with raw camplang whose flavor is in the form of terasi, parsnip, onion, garlic, and chili)

" Let's eat Hendra first" I asked.

" Thank you Aunt.so ngerepotin," said Hendra.

We headed to the dinner table, and then started eating.

Mama helped me weed fish and get me some other food.

" Hurt his arm, son?" ask mama.

" Yet, ma." I replied.

Of course it still hurts...

Hendra looked at me with a guilty feeling.

" Eat Mas Hendra" I said to take Hendra's mind off his guilt.

" Yes Lus," he answered and spooned the rice onto his plate.

Mama spooned vegetables and side dishes to Hendra's mas plate.

" Eat a lot Nak Hendra," said Mama.

" Thank you Tan" said Mas Hendra.

We enjoyed my mom's cooking, and I ate it well.

"Feel aunty, "praise Hendra.

" Add more if it's good, son, don't hesitate," said mama smiled.

" Yes Tan.ini nambah," replied Hendra.

After the meal, Hendra and I sat in the living room while my mother cleaned the dirty dishes.

" Lus, I'm here first. Can ya?" tanyanya looks at me.

" Maybe Mas, but Mas Hendra has not informed Mas Hendra's mother?" my many.

Mas Hendra then pulled out his phone from his pants pocket, then typed a message.

" This is Lus, my mother told me" he replied.

The roar of a motorcycle stopped in front of my house, I wanted to get up from my seat but was blocked by Hendra.

" Just sit down, you still need to rest.let me see," Hendra forbade me from waking up.

Mas Hendra got up from his seat, he opened the door to my iron trellis.

" In bro..," said mas Hendra to the guests who came.

Aldo came in with his bike.

" Thank you bro." replied Aldo.

" Hello Lus, what's the condition? it's mending?" aldo asked as soon as he came in.

" Sit Al..."

Aldo and Mas Hendra sat down.

Mama came out of the kitchen with a tray and three glasses of water and a bag of medicines.

"Night Tan.." said Aldo.

" Night Nak Aldo.ini please drink yes Son," mama brought drinks for Aldo and Mas Hendra.

Mama must have heard the sound of Aldo's big motorbike from the kitchen, and brought me drinks and brought me my medicine.

" Pick up the medicine first, son," told my mother to open the plastic bag she was carrying.

Mama tore off the plastic that wrapped my medicine and gave it to me.

" Thank you ma" I said after taking the medicine that was brought home from the hospital.

" Did Aldo eat?" ask mama.

" It was at Tan's house before coming here" he replied.

"Oh yes Lus, said Yanti tomorrow afternoon she wants to come see you with Herman."

" Our...are you telling me the same story as Al?" my many.

" Why is Lus? Your cousin, he's so shocked."

" It's okay Al, just afraid of being troublesome" I replied.

"Let's talk about Lus, why don't you tell him" Aldo said.

Brother Yanti is good, I just don't want to bother.

Besides, I don't want to deal with Aunt Linda.

There was a car stopped in front of my house, surely Dirga mas who came.

Mas Hendra was about to get up from his seat, but this time the mother forbade Mas Hendra to get up.

" Had Nak Hendra just sat down, it must have been Nak Dirga who came.biar Aunty only," said the mother then opened the trellis door.

" Aunty Night..," said Mas Dirga from the terrace.

" Night Nak.ayo in."

Mas Dirga brought a bag of fruit and gave it to mama.

" Repot-bother son, thank you.." mama received the bag given Mas Dirga.

" Well rame again turned out.." said mas Dirga as soon as entered.

" Hey.." Hi.." said Aldo and Mas Hendra.

" Hello everyone" replied Mas Dirga.

"Sit down, son," tell Mama to Mas Dirga.

Mas Dirga then joined us sitting on the guest sofa.

"Where is Lus better?" ask Dirga to me.

"Still in pain, especially in the arms" I replied.

Mama went to the kitchen and got a drink for Dirga and sat down with us.

" Dirga's son ate?" ask Mom to Dirga.

" Tan was at home" he replied.

My phone rang, on my phone screen was the name Fendi.

" Sori yes I pick up the phone first," I gave my permission to my guests.

" Hello Fen..."

" Lus, said Eni you've been in an accident? how's your condition? where is the sick?" fendi asked in panic.

"I'm fine, Fen, it's coming home from the hospital anyway" I replied.

" Where's the wounded Lus?" ask again.

" The doctor said Fen badly, just bruised his right arm and a little tear on his head" I explained.

" What is your head?"

" It's stitched up. The X-rays are all good Fen, not bad," I replied.

" Thank God, then, I'm worried about Eni loveau" said Fendi again.

"You need to worry, Fen, I'm fine" I replied.

" Fen, I'm sorry I have another guest.later we'll call again."

" Owh.okay Lus.hurry up and recover.I don't want anything to happen to you. Take good care of yourself yes. bye..," he said closing the chat.

" Thank you, Fen, bye." I closed.

I hung up my phone, then I was silent looking at the three pairs of eyes that were all staring at me. I was misbehaving.

I'm cleared of...

The three men in front of me seemed to wake up.

I saw my mom smiling and winking her eyes at me.

My mom is teasing me.
