My Sweet Green's

The Unexpected Sign of Thank You

"Aww..." Rizal closed his eyes withstanding the pain in his cheek as Meira rubbed with the cloth wrapped in ice cubes.

"I'm sorry, Nu. Because I got slapped by papa. It must have hurt a lot, until red gini." Meira rubbed it back carefully.

Rizal smiled faintly. "It hurts even more to see you slapped."

Now Meira's face is reddened by Rizal's speech just now. Whether it is just a mere rumble or indeed sincere from the deepest heart. The seed of love seemed to start growing in the hearts of the two of them. Different feelings arise when they are together like this. Meira stroked the sweet cheek gently. Trying to feel it again. The story might not have been this sick if he had not been born into the Wijaya family.

"Miss..."

"Hmmm..." Rizal looked at the beautiful girl.

"You didn't lie, did you?"

Rizal. He looked at Meira inside. "Sir Tika had a bad experience of violence. She was hurt by her former husband. He was traumatized to depression as he is now. It hurts so much to see our dear ones being hurt like that," Rizal turned to Meira and exhaled her breath to relieve his feelings for a moment. "And somehow... I can't see you getting hurt, Mei." she looked down. Maybe this statement is wrong. But he can't hold it anymore.

Meira smiled and embraced the sweet man. He was filled to hear the unexpected statement uttered by Rizal just now. The cold man expressed his feelings at this moment. He talks more. Meira stared at the spoiled two brownish-black eyeballs. Want to give him a little gift that might be an awkward moment afterwards. Meira kissed the red cheeks and hurriedly turned her face away. I don't know what he thought until he dared to do it.

Rizal holds her new cheek at the touch of Meira's soft lips. Whatisthis? He looked at Meira expressionlessly. Either shocked or indeed still confused by the treatment of the beautiful girl.

"That's... As a sign of gratitude I'm the same lo." he said smiling shyly.

Rizal laughed thinly. "What the hell, May."

"Em, you don't like it, do you?" he pouts.

"Like it." Rizal smiles. So sweet.

"Their engagement must be accelerated." Wijaya exhaled his cigarette smoke.

Sherin was silent. In the depths of her heart she also felt sorry and could not bear to see her only child should always do as her husband ordered. But what power he also did not have the courage to oppose the will of the husband. He never dared to side with Meira and always tried to persuade his daughter to obey what the father said. But this time it looks like Wijaya has gone too far. Getting married in an arranged manner is very painful. He doesn't want Meira's fate to be the same as his old self. Living in the steering wheel by both parents so they can not feel the pleasure of youth. What Meira does today may have a point, a little rebellion does need to be done so that his life is not too restrained.

"You disagree, Ma?" Wijaya broke the daydream of his wife.

"Are we not forcing Meira too much, Mas. Mama feels sorry for our son." Sherin tries to muster up her courage to express her feelings.

"Ma..." Vijaya frowned, astonished by his wife's somewhat different attitude this time.

"Our stock will shoot up if we cooperate with Gunawan company. This is very important, Ma."

"Think of Meira's feelings, Mas." Sherin leaves Wijaya still smoking her cigarette.

"Remember, May. Obey Papa's orders, otherwise you will know the consequences!" point Vijaya in front of Meira who is looking down.

They left Meira. Meira just stood staring at the footsteps of her parents who were getting away. It is sad to be visited by parents not to let go of longing but he even got a threat. That's if he comes out of the groove that his father has made.

The black sedan was waiting in front of Meira's house. The man casually offered while playing his phone. "Hurry out" he wrote and sent the message to the occupants of the gray house.

Meira stomped her legs irritated. He shouldn't have gone to college with that loser. Just now he felt the warmth of Rizal's grip yesterday, today he even got a bad surprise from the papa. Yep. It was Wijaya who had Boy pick up Meira this morning. He also threatened Meira not to refuse his orders. Meira can only resign, maybe this time he must obey his papa first. Just going to college is no big deal, and then he'll figure out how to get home on his own.

Meira got into the car without saying anything. Seemed the look of his face that absolutely did not want to be picked up by Boy.

"The princess was picked up by a manyun, anyway," said Boy smilingly seducing. "What do you miss about being picked up by me, baby?" He tried to grab Meira's hand but was quickly pushed aside by the owner.

"Heh, Boy! remember, you have a girlfriend."

"But you're my future fiance."he quibbled.

"At any time I won't want to be engaged to you."

Boy held his breath. He tried to be gentle with the girl who had been hurt on him. Trying not to be rude so that the pretty girl's heart melts back.

"You've been blinded by the maggot, Mei" he said without looking.

"It has nothing to do with Rizal. Everything that happens between us is because of you."

Boy speechless. Not regretting his actions, but he thought of a way to make the man in the green jacket hurt. This is a good time to make the man's heart cut and realize that he does not deserve Meira. He turned his steering wheel towards the SweetMart minimarket. Grasping Meira's hand and entering the green-themed shop. Without a long time, he went straight to the right cashier once Rizal was in front of him.

"Please get me two chocolate buns and two Lattes for me and my fiancee, Mas" Boy said. Meira is still trying to let go of her grasp.

Rizal's stunned. He held his breath, trying to calm down as if nothing had happened in front of him at this moment. Meira once tega to him. Just yesterday he was in the spoiled kiss of the girl, today he even got a shocking spectacle. There was only one word in his heart. "I don't deserve it."

"This is the bread and the Latte, Mas. A total of a hundred thousand." He tried not to look at the beautiful girl who had actually become the occupant of his heart.

"This is the money, more for you, I know you need it" he said smiling wryly.

Rizal returned some of the red notes to Boy. "I don't need to be pitied, let alone the same people I don't know. Thanks again, Mom and Dad are shopping at our store."

Rizal left them with a look that was so upset. For this time Boy won, he could guess the look on Rizal's face that was so holding back emotions but could not do anything. It wasn't in vain that he lobbied his papa Meira last night.
