I've been a follower of The Secret for a long time and trust the Law of Attraction. When I read the book, I knew what I wanted. Start trusting the goodness of the universe that responds to the energy within. Make requests and believe that it will happen. Including the request I wrote on the plane while flying from Istanbul to Tallinn.
I still remember well, what I wrote in my application letter to the universe. Give me a European man, the shape of the nose as I want, pretty eyes, thin lips, plump eyelashes, posture, about his hobbies and so on. I wrote all the details and neat. Then I trained myself to believe it. The Universe has a way of answering these requests. I also remember how Vavan asked me about this Law of Attraction.
"Lo really believes all this?" Ask one day after eating a plump meal and of course the discussion after the spicy ended.
"Come on, I've been testing it for a few years. Usually my earnest requests come true, as long as I truly believe them" I replied filled with confidence.
"Oh, you're not frustrated if it doesn't happen" he replied.
"Yes easy, just eat a plunge with you if anything does not materialize. So no stress-stress very much" haha I laughed.
Vavan does make sense, he always takes things into account carefully. Everything was done to him first. While I was always busy trusting my instincts and fully believing in the dreams I wrote that it would manifest in my life. I believe so this time. It should also apply to the request of a man I want. Is Allan really for me? Is it really Allan the man I wrote? Some of the signs are in Allan, but not all have been tested. There's still a lot to confirm from the list I've prepared.
I stared at my HP screen, there was no sign of a message coming from him. Even messages from luky are stacked on my WhatsApp. I'll let it go first, then I'll call Luky. I'm still waiting for Allan's message. I stared again at the towering TV Tower near my apartment. Imagine what people are doing right now there in between this cold weather. Back to my screen. Oh the message is increasing, especially from the groups of bejibun I have. Exactly, one of them is from Allan. He finally collapsed too.
"I'm sorry about what happened at the restaurant. Can we talk?". Scripting.
I let the message go, let it be not habit. Fight and just leave. I'll keep him waiting, at least for an hour. I made lemon tea and sat back on the couch reading a book. Although not really focused on the story I was reading. Sometimes it is necessary to do this so that men do not care when they are emotional and assume I can melt whenever they want. He must know I've read the message. But kucueki temporarily.
"Call me in 10 minutes". I reply after an hour.
"Thanks love, talk shortly". Reply in the same minute.
I can read his impatience to speak. I smiled, in my hand I was holding a book about the Law of Attraction right now. I have read a series of books. Every time I reread the chapter, I always wanted to practice it and test my desires earnestly.
Allan called for over an hour. He asked permission to pick me up and take me to his apartment tomorrow. He said he wanted to cook Estonian food for me. Of course I'm glad to hear it. I asked him to pick me up at the office, after work hours.

"I miss you" she said as I sat in the car next to her.
"I miss you too" I said.
We kissed in the parking lot. In addition to the car, there are several other cars parked here. Not too much, maybe because it's home from work. We stayed in the car for a few minutes and looked at each other.
We left the parking area shortly. Heading to his apartment not far from my office. Compared to the distance from my apartment to the office, the apartment is actually closer. Allan is not from Tallinn. He was born and raised in Parnu, another region of Estonia that is quite far from the city of Tallinn. Because of his work in the city, he took an apartment here.
We passed a few malls. Although the mall in Tallinn is not as much as the mall in Jakarta. There are only a few here. The buildings here are also not very high. There is no building like Jakarta. Most are also old buildings from the colonial period.
"I'll buy you some wine. You wait in the car, or you wanna come down?" Allan parked his car in the supermarket yard. This is one of the supermarkets that sells Vastlakukkel cake, a traditional Estonian cake that is my favorite.
"I'm waiting in the car. Buy me a Vasthakukkel dong" I asked.
"Oh wow, my girl is really Estonian now. Do you like the cake?" it comes back*******my lips.
"Yes, buy ya" I whine.
"Sure. How many do you want?" said waiting.
"5". I pointed my 5 fingers at him. He laughed and got out of the car.
Vastlakukkel, the name of the cake that bears a resemblance to my name. How do I know, Estonia has a traditional cake like this.
Vastlakukkel is usually only sold in February. The month in which Estonians celebrate the day by enjoying Vastlakukkel with his family. The day is called Vastlapaev, vastlapaev is a festival where children and young people will climb up hills and then slide down hills or slopes to determine how the harvest will be in the coming year. Those who glide the furthest means they will get the best harvest. This is what the people believed at the time. Since then, they have always warned him in February. Children who join the sledding and then they will be given this Vastlakukkel cake.
Despite all the history of this cake, I fell in love with it the first time I ate it. Since then I have been waiting for February to enjoy this with my Estoni family. But usually, every super market, I will definitely buy it. No waiting for Vastlapaev, whenever I want to eat and usually sold 2 weeks before the celebration.
We arrived at Allan's apartment when it was completely dark. It's only 6:30 in the afternoon, like midnight in winter. The sun only stopped for a while today, then sank back to where it went.
"You just relax on the couch, I'll have dinner ready for us" Allan said.
"Order! Can I see your books again?" I asked for permission again.
"Bby dong. Read there. So you're not even waiting".
Reading is a happy thing for me. Most of Allan's books are in Estonian. But he also has a lot of books in English on his shelf. I was glued to a book that I had not noticed in all this time. This book is under the stack of other books. I know the cover well and it says The Secret. Oh so he's also a fan of this book, now I know what brings us together. The Law of Attraction.
