My Lecturer my best friend

EP23 Worry

"Alright then, all the decisions are with you. But if you need anything, don't hesitate to contact your sister"

Sofia nodded. Joshua who could not bear to see Sofia so sad, finally decided to take Sofia home.

Since her meeting with Joshua, Sofia has been quiet and daydreaming. It saddens Vernon to leave her abroad. Though he thought Vernon would fight for him when he said break up, but it did not happen.

Tok tok tok tok

Sofia wakes up from her daydream after hearing someone knock on her door.

"Who is it?" sofia asked as she opened the door.

Sofia wondered why there was suddenly a huge bouquet of flowers at her doorstep. He looked all over his house, but there was no one.

Strange, the feeling of someone knocking at the door. Sofia Murmured.

Sofia then takes a bouquet of flowers and brings them into the house.

There was no sender's name on the flower, only a letter. Soon Sofia opened the letter and started reading it.

"*Hi. How are you today? I hope you're not sad anymore. I'd love to visit you to comfort you, but I'm afraid you still want time to be alone. So instead, I sent you this bouquet of flowers to accompany you so as not to be alone. If you're ready to tell me, call me whenever you want.

Marked

Your loyal admirer*

Sofia was deeply moved to see the contents of the letter. Although the letter was written only by a loyal admirer, but Sofia knew that the one who sent the flower must be Rey, it could be seen from the call 'my soul mate' that Rey often called her.

Sofia immediately searches for her phone and contacts the sender of this flower, which is none other than Rey.

Tut.tut.

"Assalamualaikum my soul mate, you finally called me too" Rey said across the phone.

"Waalaikumsalam Rey, thank you for the flowers. I feel a little better now" Sofia said.

"Well, I'm so glad to hear you've gotten better".

"Oh yeah, I want to take you somewhere tomorrow. Suppose I invite you to take away your sadness. How's it?" continued Rey.

"Are you also taking Angel?" ask Sofia.

"I've asked her, but she said she can't leave because her future priest is in Indonesia right now" Sofia chuckled she knew Angel meant Joshua.

"All right, I'm coming"

"I'll pick you up tomorrow. See you, my soul mate. Assalamualaikum"

"Waalaikumsalam" Sofia answered and switched off her phone.

Sofia is happy because Rey always comforts her whenever she feels sad. But unfortunately, his heart had not been able to forget Vernon until this second.

The next day as promised, Rey picks up Sofia.

"Please enter my soul mate" Rey invites Sofia to get into her car.

"Where are we going?" ask Sofia.

"The place that makes you laugh" Rey replied.

"Makes me laugh? where's the?"

"Wait until you see it for yourself" Rey smiled suspiciously.

It turns out Rey took Sofia to a playground.

"It's not Rey's fault? why did you bring me here?" sofia asked confusedly.

"No dong. Let's go in first" Rey replied as she held Sofia's hand.

"Well, there's a roller coster. I was very curious about the ride" Sofia said in awe.

"Are you ready to go up?"

"Huh? up what?"

"He was curious about the ride" pointed Rey at the roller coster ride.

"Let's go up" Rey pulls Sofia's hand to ride with her.

"I'm afraid Rey, this is the first time I've climbed it" Sofia said in fear.

"Hold my hand if you're afraid of Sofia" Rey said.

At first Sofia hesitates to hold Rey's hand, but as her rides begin to run, Sofia quickly grabs Rey's hand.

True what Rey said, the place of this vehicle makes him momentarily able to forget his sadness to Vernon.

Rey took Sofia to various rides, they even took pictures together there. Rey posted photos of her relationship with Sofia on her social media. They both smiled happily in the photo.

Elsewhere, Vernon was struggling with the files on his desk. While in France Vernon was just busy with his work, he felt that keeping busy like that would slowly make him stop thinking about Sofia.

Finished with his work, Vernon took his phone and browsed his social media. Suddenly he stops at a photo, where he sees Rey posting a photo of herself with Sofia on a playground. The photo looks very happy, with the smiles of the two people in the picture.

Vernon just smiled bitterly at the photo. Instantly his mood was immediately ugly to see the togetherness of the two of them. It turns out you forgot about me very quickly, Sofia. Vernon Mumbled.

A few months later

At this time Sofia was getting used to it without the presence of Vernon nearby. He spends a lot of time with Rey and Angel. This time also slowly he began to forget Vernon, although sometimes still remember him.

Tonight Sofia will be going with Rey at Rey's cousin's wedding. At first Sofia does not want to leave, but Rey continues to beg Sofia to accompany her. He could not refuse his best friend's invitation because Rey was too kind to him.

Rey invites Sofia to go with her. When Sofia came out, it was seen that she was wearing a long dress with her hair bunched to make her neckline clearly plastered. Rey was fascinated by Sofia's beauty that night.

"You're so pretty tonight Sofia" Rey said.

"So pretty just tonight?" sofia asks trying to tease Rey.

"No. In my eyes you are always beautiful, tonight too" Rey said innocently.

Sofia chuckles at Rey's words. They finally went to the show.

Arriving there, Rey invites Sofia in and starts introducing Sofia to her family.

"Hello ma, pa. This is Sofia" Rey said.

"That's so pretty Rey. Is this your future wife?" ask Rey's mom.

"Just pray ma" Rey said with a smile.

Sofia turned to Rey and was surprised to hear Rey's words.

"Just relax, don't be nervous" Rey whispered in Sofia's ear.

"Rey invited the future son-in-law to sit down, sorry he stood up" Rey's father said. The prospective ghost in question is of course Sofia.

"All right, we're gonna sit there" points Rey at an empty table.

"Then we excuse auntie, um" said Sofia.

"Hey, baby" said Rey's mother.

While Rey and Sofia are chatting, Rey's cousin who is having a wedding party approaches them both.

"Hi Bro, thank you for coming" said the groom, Rey's cousin.

"Together bro" Rey replied.

"So who's this pretty girl?" ask Rey's cousin.

"Include me Sofia, Rey's friend" replied Sofia.

"Was it just a friend? I think his girlfriend. It fits well"

"I don't need to date, I'll propose to her later" Rey said.

"Well, I totally agree, bro. I hope you can get to the wedding. Then excuse me" said Vernon's cousin as he passed away.

"Why did you say that? ask Sofia to Rey.

"Say what?" Rey asked again, pretending not to know.

"Tell me if you want to propose to me" Sofia said.

"But I'll propose to you later, when you're ready" Rey said.

Sofia could only be silent. He has not been able to open his heart to anyone else. His feelings are still with the same person, Vernon.
