Melati At The End of Hope

Chia was disappointed again

Episode 15's

During the one week preparation period given by the father to Chia. Chia asks for permission to return to the city for a few days, in order to complete everything related to her efforts at the bakery.

And also another goal that Chia did not convey to father and mother, namely meeting with Dio. before Chia decided to accept a male proposal of her father's choice, namely, Chia wanted to establish her heart that there was nothing to regret later if the matchmaking really happened.

Father and mother allowed Chia, and gave three of the seven days of the week a preparation period, to finish her affairs first.

The journey was taken by Chia and finally Chia arrived at her boarding house in the city.

Chia tidied up all her things she might need, Chia also takes care of the delivery of the management of her cake shop business to one that she considers able to help Chia deal with customers who have been brought up to ask when the cake shop opened. They are so happy to enjoy their favorite cake.

Chia entrusted the trust to the wife of Heru sir, and also his daughter.

"Mom Heni, since Chia has some business to do in Chia's hometown, Chia has all the business of the tavern to mom and Lala huh, maybe a week or so, maybe, Chia doesn't know for sure either." Chia.

"Chia is still monitoring her mother and Lala, so if there is a problem, Lala can contact Chia by phone or text message" explained Chia Long.

"Yes, if you are worried about being overwhelmed if you take care of just the two, you can ask for help from anyone you believe may be two or three people who are important they are honest and trustworthy."

As long as Chia's mom and Lala don't have to open a store, you just have to make an order for customers to come in and contact them after the order is finished, so they can pick up the order." Chia said to tell.

"Chia has also announced the same customers, if we can not deliver. So once ready mom and Lala immediately call them remind them to immediately take the cake order." explained Chia.

"One more ma'am, for the cake payment do not have to worry, because they immediately transfer to Chia, if for example pay cash means they will pay at the time of taking the cake yes ma'am. The capital is in the cashier drawer" Chia explained.

"Soalnya Chia not good, only three days closed they have been busy asking when the store is open." Chia explained the reason.

Heni and Lala's mother listened to all the instructions and explanations that Chia conveyed.

"Okay neng, I understand.insyaAllah everything is in order! hihi" replied Heni's mother sumringah.

"Alhamdulillah, thank you very much ma'am already want to help Chia" said Chia again.

"Mother who is grateful, already loving mother and Lala trust, pantes the father (pak Heru) always tell the story of generosity neng Chia" replied Heni.

"Ah sir Heru likes to overdo it. Not really a generous Chia but Allah ma'am, and also Heru sir who always help Chia sincerely and sincerely." Chia smiling.

"Alhamdulillah.may all be blessings" said Mrs Heni again.

"Aamiin ma'am" Chia gave her best smile.

The business of the cake shop is in order, now Chia wants to finish her heart business. With feelings that had been chaotic, slowly Chia tried harder and ascertain once again what really happened to Dio the other day was a consciousness or error.

"Assalamu'alaykum, Dio I'm back from the village, can we meet?" (Chia sent a short message to Dio).

Dio's mobile screen vibrates...

He also reads an incoming message that turns out to be from Chia.

"Wa'alaykumsalam, finally you tell me too, I always wait. I thought you had forgotten me" (reply Dio).

"I don't have much time for pleasantries through messages, maybe I'd be more relieved if we meet later" (strictly Chia replied again).

"hemm..cold your attitude, okay in a regular cafe at eight o'clock tonight." (reply Dio).

"It was just a type of Dio message, not an attitude! Okay fix yeah, we'll see you tonight." (Chia ends message reply).

Reading the reply message, Dio smiled to himself.

"One of the reasons why I admire you is that your attitude remains the same without further ado, but that's what makes you different from other girls?" Dio.

"Chiara.." said Dio Lirih.

Evening is approaching...

Exactly at eight o'clock at a cafe where Chia and Dio used to meet, Chia was already sitting waiting for Dio.

Chia swept a glance across the cafe, but it seemed that Dio's nose was not yet visible.

Chia still thought well, maybe Dio was blocked by traffic jams or something else that made him last come.

"Where do you want what message?" ask him kindly.

"I'm still waiting for my friend" Chia replied.

"Oh well mbak, then please wait, maybe you can while looking at the menu book" said the waiter again.

"Thank you a lot" Chia smiled.

"Sama-sama ma'am, then I'm sorry" the waiter left Chia.

Time kept going, the clock was already pointing to the number nine but what Chia was waiting for had not come yet.

A waiter came back to Chia because Chia felt bad just sitting down, finally Chia ordered a cup of warm chocolate and also an appetizer available at the cafe.

After the order came Chiapun enjoyed it, while anxiously waiting for Dio.

The clock has shown at 10pm, Dio is not present to meet Chia.

"I'm sorry if we've had a last order, does anyone want to order again?" a waiter asked Chia.

Chia shakes..."No ma'am, thank you" Chia replied briefly with a lethargic face.

As the cafe was about to close, Chia finally decided to go home.

His footsteps were limped.The body was limp as boneless.

Not just because of waiting for Dio who never came, but the look of the waiters in the cafe who seemed to pity him. Making Chia's feelings unreasonable, angry, embarrassed and also worried became the right word to describe Chia's current feelings.

Chia felt stupid for always believing in Dio.

Chia kept walking by her side the night. Suddenly it rained without giving a signal.

The swiftness made Chia feel free to spill her cries. It evaporates his frustration and sadness in the midst of the torrential rain.

In a room.

A handsome man was drunk due to the influence of alcoholic beverages to unconsciousness, there he was with a woman who tried to continue to fondle him.

There's no mistaking it, they're Dio and Nesa.

The woman laid Dio's body on the bed, unbuttoning Dio's shirt one by one.

The woman was also getting wild, she started unzipping the Jeans pants that Dio was wearing.

Dio wriggled while calling out someone's name.

"Chiara.." he said in his drunken condition.

Dio looked at the woman's face as if it was Chia, the idol of his heart.

Dio laughed and enjoyed his body, because the woman he thought was Chiara. Aggressively the woman continued to fondle Dio mercilessly.

Feeling that Nesa was Chiara, Dio let her do whatever she did.

including the forbidden relationship.

Satisfied to do and do it over and over again, Nesapun left Dio without a thread and Nesa just covered him with a blanket.

the Chia boarding house.

Chia returns to her boarding house wet in the rain.

He immediately cleaned himself and changed his clothes with sleeping clothes.

I want Chia to fall asleep and forget everything, but again she can't.

Chia finally fell asleep covered in a thick broken and disappointed blanket.
