FLASHBACKS
Saturday afternoon at around 11:00 Jess left for the cafe where she worked. As usual at work she wears a pink t-shirt and long black jeans and sneakers, with her long black hair pigtailed with a ponytail does not detract from her oriental facial beauty. Do not forget the little sling bag that he always carries where.
Today Jess deliberately left early because she wanted to visit the graves of her parents. Because today exactly 3 years ago his parents died. Not to forget Jess bought a bouquet of flowers for their tomb.
"Pa..Today is the day you leave Jesslyn alone..Jesslyn has no one else..Pa..."
"It's hard for Jess to get through time without you, but Jess promises Jess will make you proud from up there...Ma'am.."
In another part of the tomb, a middle-aged man was visiting his wife's grave. He misses his most beloved wife. Michael didn't even want to remarry after his wife died. Maybe because he wanted so much to keep the sacred promise they made 28 years ago.
After the grave of both of her parents Jess immediately rushed to go to work because the time has shown at 12:30. While waiting for the taxi she ordered, Jess decided to sit on a long bench by the side of the road.
10 Minutes later the ordered motorcycle came. Not until Jess got on the bike Jess saw the father who crossed the road. But from the side there was a car speeding, it seemed that the person did not notice it.
Jess immediately ran to grab the person's body, and...
Bruukk.....
Jess managed to pull the man's body, so that no accident occurred.
"Father is okay?", asked Jess to make sure the man wasn't hurt.
"Father is okay son.lucky there was you.bapak want to walk to the car father who is across but you do not see if there is a car..if there was no you might have been hit by a car earlier...". Answer the man.
"Yes sir.sama is the same.yes already sir I want to go to work first, father be careful on the road..".
"Oh, who's your name?",
"I'm Jesslyn, sir".
"Jesslyn you're with your father yeah.it looks like we're in the same direction.
"Well sir do not need.thank you.lagian I have ordered the online motorcycle taxi earlier.."reject Jess
"No papa Jesslyn.this as an expression of my gratitude because you have nolong the father earlier.oh yes.introduce me Michael.Call him Om Mike".
"Hhmm.well then Om.I'm with Om...",
After Jess pays the fare, Jess leaves for the cafe with Mike. They also exchanged phone numbers.
FLASHBACK OFF
"Yet Well." replied Justin briefly.
Michael also recounted the incident that happened yesterday afternoon to his son. Justin seemed surprised to hear the story from his father.
"Justin..I want to introduce you to that girl, son.."
"Do you mean?". asked Justin not to understand.
"She looks like a good girl, pretty anyway.her name is Jesslyn.again you don't have a boyfriend right.?". asked Michael.
"Dad.I don't know him yet.after all the time my father immediately knew he was good or not.."protes Justin.
"Father is old, Son.do not know until when the age of the father.
"Dad has his phone number, too.."
"No Dad, if you like him, just marry him..Justin won't marry someone Justin doesn't know.Point.".
"Hmmm..there's you.". said the father as he passed.
"Yes.."
"True, you don't want to?", asked his father again.
"No, father.". replied Justin.
Michael was out of the room but not for a minute...
"Justin..are you sure?".his father came back again with a "puppy eyes" look".
":Yeahahhhh...."Justin shouted in annoyance.
Michael is a man who always acts decisively and disciplined in his work. But outside of work hours he is still a father and a mother for his son only wayang. His behavior sometimes makes Justin shake his head. Maybe if an outsider didn't know him, he wouldn't believe Michael, a senior doctor, had the biggest hospital.
