S.H.E (Women I've Purchased)
#85
Andre and his family and Lucy have arrived at a luxury restaurant, all the luxuries scattered around the corner of the VIP room ordered by Andre to welcome the arrival of his mother and sister to Paris. The Italian restaurant serves some typical food of the country and does not forget some beautiful dessert that seemed reluctant to eat.
"Why did you choose food like this? You know I don't really like Italian cooking" Andre's mom nagged.
"Mom has never tried it how can you tell if this food is not good? I have to taste this." said Andre.
"Well, I'm going to eat it, but next time I'm going to turn down something like this" her mother said.
Andre just silently did not respond to his mother's words, he just continued eating and occasionally looked at Lucy who looked very nervous.
"Darling, do you need anything?" said Andre softly.
Andre's remark suddenly made the mother and Ratih surprised, how could Andre openly call the woman affectionately while his mother tried to match Andre with Ratih.
"I'll go to the toilet for a second, excuse me." Lucy said politely.
Lucy leaves the dinner table and walks to the toilet, while Andre continues to eat as if indifferent to the gaze of mother and Train to him.
"Andre, you know that your mother can't stay in this country?" ask mother.
"Yes I know." said Andre briefly.
"Lha so yes mbok looking for a prospective wife who locally has anyway" said Andre's mother proposed.
"But I work and spend more time here than in Indonesia Mom, yes I need a wife who settled by my side" said Andre without looking at his mother's face.
"Mom, let's have lunch first. It's not the right time to discuss issues like this" Alex said.
"Yes Ma'am, we are also new, we better enjoy our vacation here first. Such a problem can later be dealt with." said Ratih.
"It is good that you are understanding. Indeed educated people are different." quipped Andre's mother.
After lunch, Andre invited the mother and the others to go home to his apartment. Not to forget also Lucy came with them and always faithfully accompanied Andre. Arriving at his spacious apartment, Andre told the rooms to be occupied by his mother, sister and Ratih. after helping his mother and sister pack his things suddenly Andre's phone rang and it turned out to be a phone from Luna.
"Good afternoon Mr. Andre, sorry to interrupt your time off. But right now I need your signature. There's a proposal you need to sign as soon as possible, how about mister? Do I need to see you?" ask Luna.
"Ah no need, let me go there for a moment" said Andre.
"Okay sir, good afternoon" said Luna.
"Good day" Andre answered hung up.
Andre looked at Lucy who was still sitting in the family room, he stared intently at her lover who tried to mingle with his mother and sister but there was still no positive response from his mother.
"Darling, I have to go to the office. Let me drive you home." take Andre to try to save his girlfriend from her mother's exile.
"Why did you send your girlfriend home so soon? I haven't spoken to him yet." said Andre's mother suddenly.
"I don't think mom has any intention of talking to her, so it's better for me to take her home" Andre said.
"Andre, since when can you talk to your mother like that?" ask her mother to be angry.
"Since mother exiled Lucy. He has tried to blend in with you, but it seems you have your own story that is more fun" said Andre not less emotional.
"Yes, let me be here. After all your mother doesn't ignore me at all, you're just misunderstanding. You carefully go to his office." Lucy said trying to break up.
Andre tries to hold back his emotions for Lucy, he holds Lucy's hand and holds her hand tightly.
"Well then, if there's anything you don't have to wait for me. You can go straight home and live in this place." said Andre.
Andre left Lucy with a feeling of anxiety, because of that feeling he accelerated his footsteps to arrive in the car and as soon as possible arrive at the office to finish his work.
