Not Glass Cans

103. Juan!

*You're not coming home? It feels lonely, El..* This is a message from Garrick, sent eleven o'clock last night. I didn't give you an answer even though I read it straight away. I think Garrick knows where I am. He must have asked Zayn. What happens last night if I sleep there without Zayn? Did Garrick miss me last night? Oh, my chest pain...

*You're not coming home? Maybe later I will become mute in front of the penghulu when you come on my marriage contract. But I really want to see you, El* here's Garrick's second message he sent before Friday prayers. It's Friday. I didn't give you a reply either. This one I also don't know exactly what it means. Garrick expecting my hand or not?

I don't care what the content of the ferocious message is. I was ready with my super perfect makeup. After Friday's dzuhur this is the time set for Garrick Julian's marriage contract. So I was preparing to come beautiful to the former courtier. Even without a special invitation for me, I determined I should come!

"Well, ma'am.., the master putty, will not see you, mbak!" Ike who was standing near the stairs said excitedly as I descended on the first floor.

Lisbet and Yuk Tia were too. They were still in place looking at me. Also the cafe goers, they turned their heads glued towards me. I caught a glimpse of the cafe visitors with my friendly smile.

"Ke, I don't pant as gini? Menor isn't it, Ke?" Half-buckle on Ike. Ike already knows where I'm going. But I don't know what my problem is.

"Yaaa.., menor kok that, yes do not mbak.It pasionebel very mbak. Wes, ma'am!" Ike's words are not more, I don't like dancing, nor do I like menor.

"Trims yes Ke, no lie right? I was a stingy first huh!" Ike mangosteen saw my go.

"Lisbet.yuk Tia, help Ike keep the cafe, yes." I spoke quietly to both of my cafe rewangs.

"Don't worry, Miss Elsi." Yuk Tia smiled gently as she stroked my arm. Lisbet nodded smiling at me as well.

This time it wasn't an uda Fahri taxi. But another taxi just happened to run to the sidewalk in front of the cafe. Fortunately, it can be immediately, if you are not sure to grin the horse waiting. My online Batam taxi app was removed last week. Lazy reinstall it.

The clothes Kanaya Linha had thrust on me, were the ones I was wearing right now. Last night Zayn and I stopped by Garju's house after Maghrib. Then come out again with Zayn while I'm carrying this shirt.

And as always, last night was Friday night. Hot couple, Ike and Anang are back in action. So excited, like deliberately showing off position to me. And back to the first floor was my escape. Befriended a message from Garrick that he sent me last night.

🌻🌻🌻🐢🐢🐢

My steps sauntered through the lobby, towards the grand building on the side of the Garju hotel. That's where the wedding was held. The building that I had visited with Zayn was also left by him. I came without invitation, without friends, and who I am also without clarity.

From the message sent by Uni Wel, none of the lackeys were involved or brought in. I am the only one who came. It wouldn't have been possible if it wasn't for my love for him. Although it is unclear how... I'm sure with my feelings, that important thing should happen this time.

"El...!" Haaaah..

"Mas Juan..!" Ah, Juan...This time you were sent for me. The intention to stop by Kanaya's boutique to show off clothes to Kanaya Linha was immediately paled down. Juan means a lot to me right now. Like a dream, Juan was right in front of me.

"El..How are you doing? Who are you coming with, El?" Juan looked at me fixedly, like there was still love for me in his eyes.

"I myself. But I'm glad to see you. Juan, can I come with you?" I softened my voice, I wanted to seduce her.

"Came to Anggun and Garrick's wedding, didn't you, El? Very well, El..Yuk!" Juan smiled, but the smile was fake. Did Juan know of Anggun's pregnancy?

"Mas, I'd like to ask you about Grace.." I stopped my steps on the stairs and pulled over to the side, Juan imitated me. The man looked at me back. Like I know what I mean.

"El.. Please don't talk about Grace. He is stubborn. It's decision. I don't care, El. Whatever he wants." Ah...My hope is like a clean loss. But I'm not giving up!

"Yes to Juan. Spirit, yes..! Let's go there!" I gave my turtle a beautiful smile. I want Juan to feel the opportunity to get back close to me. I'll lure Gracefully with Juan's affection to me!
