"Excuse me, is there still a blank computer?"
"Still a-" Ella hung up her sentence. His body suddenly became shivering. "What's a familiar kayak?" his inner.
The girl raised her head.
A handsome man wearing a black t-shirt and jeans was standing right in front of the cashier's desk. Its appearance is in stark contrast to the atmosphere of the cafe. "Al's? Why are you here?" scream Ella. Some cafe visitors look towards the cafe cashier.
"You think?" Albert asked back.
Ella's hand was shaking. He hid it behind his school blazer. "Don't tell Mama, yeah," she asked with teary eyes.
"What time are you done? I'll wait until you get home" Albert said, ignoring Ella's request.
"For what? How do you know I'm here?" ella said in a low voice.
"Consecret. You'll have to see me later, if you want to go home safely" Albert threatened and passed away.
...🥀🥀🥀...
"You haven't come home yet?" Ella is shocked to see a luxury car parked in front of Daniel's cafe. He was talking to the owner of the cafe.
"I told you, right? I'll wait for you" Albert said, winking his eyes. "Thanks, Daniel. I pull it off first" Albert told Daniel.
"Okay," replied Daniel. "Sometimes we are mabar, deh," he added.
"So you're the one who told me I'm here?" whispered Ella. His eyes were tight and his teeth were tight. But that didn't scare Daniel.
"No, kok. We're new acquaintances here" replied Daniel. "Your brother was also invited to chat. Sometimes we play with him too" Daniel continued.
"Ella, what? Come on, go home" take Albert in the car.
"I go home first, Niel," said Ella, then ran over to Albert's luxury car.
"You know my answer, don't you?" ella said arrogantly. Both hands he put on his waist.
"Yes. You definitely won't want me to take you home" replied Albert gently.
"Well, yeah." Ella Nyelonong went to look for angkot.
"Your mother doesn't know about this. Should I tell you, huh?" said the man while grinning thinly.
Albert's strategy worked. Ella stopped her steps and turned around. "Don't!" exclaim that girl. Albert smiled with satisfaction.
...🥀🥀🥀...
"One week ago," Ella answered while tying her long hair with a rubber band. Even his neck is visible.
"Are you like this because I'm going to marry Ghina?" ask Albert again while chewing.
Ella sat two cubits with Albert. In the end they visited the city park. They talk while eating.
"It's not like that..." Ella turned her pungent lips.
"Continue?"
"I... I want to learn independently." Ella's voice was lost to the music from the mini-railway, which circled around the city park.
"Suddenly want to be independent?" ask Albert. Apparently the man heard Ella's reply just now.
Ella lowered her head. He avoided eye contact with Albert, so that the man could not read his heart.
"La, if your mama knew for sure she'd be sad. He's been hard-earned to get you a tuition fee, but you..."
"I knew. But I'm not negligent at school. I keep learning to pursue my goals" Ella said, cutting out Albert's sentence.
"I don't forbid you from learning to live independently. Your age, I used to start making my own money. But your mother is sad. He always smelled a cigarette out of your shirt. He thinks you're turning into a bad boy" Albert said at length.
"But the reality is not that, right?" reply Ella.
"No indeed. But that doesn't mean your mom isn't sad if she finds out. For whom else would he work day and night if not for his beloved daughter" Albert said.
Ella's tears are spilling. Either because of crying or the heat. Clearly, he could not help his tears that kept flowing.
"Don't be like this, just because of my presence between the two of you" Albert said. He just finished his last bite.
"Certainly? I gave my mom permission. Are you just gonna cancel it because of me? No, right?" asked Ella with tears in her eyes.
Albert shifted his seat towards Ella. He then rubbed Ella's hair while looking at her. This time the girl did not dodge. He let the man shake his hair.
"Maybe this is the last time I feel the warmth of her hand like this. After he became my father, I had to take more care of my attitude" Ella said.
"La, I love you."
"Enough! Don't say that again! Don't make me change my mind again!" scream Ella. Some of the visitors around looked at them, making Albert only able to choose silence, and let Ella go.
"Did she know that Ghina asked for the marriage to be annulled?" albert pads himself.
