The Journey of Love Shofia

You're Too Confident

Today Shofia is in her boutique. It's sunday. Of course school is off. That's why he's been here since eight this morning.

Since arriving at his boutique, Shofia has struggled with the files scattered on his desk mixed with some pictures of his design.

"Mr. Our client has arrived. They're already waiting at the gallery" said Mega, one of the employees at the Shofia boutique.

"Yes Mega. Thank ye. I'll be there soon."

Today Shofia has an appointment with a client who is a bride and groom. Shofia immediately prepared the required equipment before she left her room to the gallery room where her client was waiting.

"Come mbak Shofi. Please sit down." Dina immediately stood up when she saw Shofia at the door. Shofia immediately sauntered towards her chair.

"Good day." said Shofia when she found out her female client turned to her. After that the male client also turned his head in shock at Shofia's voice.

"Good day." the woman's voice resuscitated Shofia from her shock as well. Shofia cleared her throat neutralizing the situation.

Shofia sat in her chair. The seat that Mega had occupied. After that Mega out of the room today Dina permission katena her son is sick, so for today Ikerjannha was replaced by Mega.

"My name is Shofi. I own this shop." Shofia reached out to the woman and was greeted by her.

"My name is Mira. And this is my fiancee, Sandy."

"Yes yes Mira. I already know your fiancee. We're fellow teachers at Merpati Junior High."

"It's a coincidence." Shofia smiled disdainfully. So all this time she was lied to by Sandy. Even this man is still trying to get close to her when she already has a fiancee. Ck ck. Shofia was really unexpected.

"Darling why don't you tell me you have your friend's boutique."

"sorry. I don't know either." said Sandy

'Thank goodness you don't know. If you know where you want to come here and get caught strangled you' inner Shofia.

"Yes mbak. All the teachers there, no one knows. Emm can we start?"

Mira Immediately says the wedding dress design she wants. Shofia also gave her Opinion and showed some designs as an addition to inspiration.

Half an hour later they had a deal. Mira and Sandy leave soon because they also still have to finish their wedding preparations which will be held one more month.

"Why mbak?" mega asked when she saw Shofia's face.

"What do you think the groom-to-be was?"

"Emm handsome. And it seems like he is very attentive to his partner. Why mbak?"

"Don't be fooled by her innocent face."

"meaning?"

"You know Mega. He was a teacher at the school where I taught. And all this time he's been trying to get close to me."

"So you've been lied to?"

"Yes. How do you know if she's engaged. He even asked for time so I could get to know him better. Turns out. she's a fox too."

"Bak love her?"

"Yes not it. I used to feel uncomfortable with people. Something is wrong."

"Yes. I'll always be grateful for that Mega."

*****

Ever since Shofia knew that Sandy already had a fiancee, she had always avoided. It had been four days since Shofia had always kept her distance from that handsome teacher. He also did not tell that to other people. He's not the kind of guy who buckets.

Today school came home early because it was the last day of the Semester Exam. There are only a few teachers who are still in school. They are the teachers who will be the committee in the implementation of the class meeting which will be held five days from now.

Extra-curricular teachers should also devise a plan to improve their students' abilities before performing and competing. Remembering they had two weeks of practice off for taking the exam.

Shofia walks to her parked car in the teacher's parking lot. Lately he rarely uses his bike because sometimes he has events outside after school.

Like now, for example. He had already made an appointment with his friends to practice the band after their long vacuum.

"Bu Shofi wait" shouted Sandy calling Shofia as she was about to open her car door.

"Yes, Mr Sandy? Can I help you?" Shofia tries to make small talk with Sandy. In fact, he was fed up with talking to the man in front of him.

"I want to explain something to Ms. Shofi."

"What about sir? It seems like there's nothing to explain here."

"Regarding my engagement."

"Ah yes. I forgot to congratulate my father. Congratulations to Sandy on the engagement." Shofia extended her right hand. Sandy replied to him clumsy.

"Me and Mira are arranged by ma'am. I don't love him." Shofia. She now understood what Sandy was going to tell her. "I just love you Miss Shofi."

A banggo! right Shofia's guess. It was indeed this cunning fox base of the man before him.

"Sorry sir. But I really don't deserve your love. Beside you there is a person who sincerely loves and loves you who will soon be your wife. So don't waste Mira. He's a good man, Sandy."

"But Shofi's mom. I really love you."

"Sir Sandy's sorry once again. You don't deserve to talk to me like that. You better talk like that to Mira. You're getting married, aren't you? ."

"Yes. I really should marry him. But can I also marry you?"

"Huh?! Are you out of your mind, sir? Even your marriage has not happened and you have thought to have more than one wife? Ck ck."

"I know if I always tease Shofi's mom so much that Shofi's mom loves me." said Sandy confidently. Shofia even wanted to drown this overly narcissistic man in front of her immediately. Where did he deduce what sounded so funny?

"Well, are you making up your dream story tonight, Mr. Sandy? "

"This is Ms. Shofi's reality. I know that you love me too. Therefore I will marry you after marrying Mira. For your good, Mom. I'm afraid you'll get depressed." Now shofia can't hold back her laugh. He chuckled, Hearing such a ridiculous thing from the mouth of Sandy Erian Wiratama. Shofia did not think.

"It looks like you've been dreaming too deeply Mr. Sandy. Face the truth."

"don't avoid Shofi's mom. Acknowledge your feelings for me."

"alright... Listen carefully to my words, dear Sandy Erian Wiratama. You seem to be too confident, right? I don't have any feelings for you. Not only do I have no love for you. Even now my respect for you has worn off sir. You are proud to admit that you do not value women. Even your own future wife has you embarrassed by you coming at me and saying this absurd thing to me."

"I'll keep fighting for you Shofi ma'am?"

"You've really tested my patience Mr. Sandy. Now listen to me carefully. I'M TAKING BACK THE OPPORTUNITY I ONCE GAVE YOU. AND I'VE CLOSED MY HEART TO YOU. POINT NOT USING COMMAS. Do you understand Sandy now? Learn to accept the situation. It'll be better for you." Shofia shook her head before getting into her car and driving her out of the school area.
