The Love of Cupu

The Love of Cupu
Elvira was wrong



It's been a week since lunch at the restaurant, Hara and Juan haven't seen each other. Hara herself is still busy with her college schedule. Juan, this week, skipped college to avoid Monic and Elvira, who continue to urge him to return with one of them. To spend time, Juan usually gathers with his friends in Farrel's workshop, or sometimes the young man comes one of the pubs owned by his other friend Adrian.


But today is different, Juan is not in both places, but in a famous Mall in New York in one of the stores that sell curtains and also home decor. He was here to keep his promise to his mother.


Juan promised his mother that he would obey all the will of the woman who was almost half a century old. And here he is, carrying so many bags of groceries to fulfill one of his mother's wishes.


Actually Juan was a little annoyed with his mother's request, but once he heard the threat that the Mommy would report to Daddy about his wild racing activities, then he unwillingly fulfilled one of his mother's wishes.


"Which do you think is good ?" ask Via the Mommy while showing two curtains with different colors. One curtain is soft pink and another is bright yellow.


Juan stared at what his mother had shown him, then he pointed to yellow as his consent. Although actually Juan did not know where the curtains will be placed, just thinking about the soft pink color that adorns one of the rooms in his house is enough to make him dizzy.


"But Juan, girls usually like pink," argued Via, who disagreed with her son's choice.


Juan squinted his eyes, though,


"Don't Mom ask me what I thought ?" juan asked trying to hold back his anger. The young man walked out of the shop.


"Juan wait !" shouted Via, he immediately paid and immediately followed Juan.


"You angry, baby ?" ask Via when he managed to get to his son.


"No" replied Juan.


"I'm hungry Mom" said Juan slightly..


"Oh, forgive dear Mom," said Via full of regret.


"Come, what do you want to eat ?" ask Via while shaking Juan's hand.


Juan just shook his head, he could only resignedly see his Mommy who was sometimes childlike.


They also entered one of the Japanese restaurants in the Mall.


The mother and son look very friendly, and there may even be some people who misinterpret when they see their closeness, including a girl who immediately approached the table where Juan and Via ate.


"Juan, so this is what made you cut off our relationship?" elvira asked with a hunting breath.


Via looked at the sweet girl who was now angry in front of him. The girl's face turned red because of her anger.


"Who is this Miss Juan?" ask Via softly.


"My ex, before Juan had finished his sentence Vira had cut out Juan's words firmly.


"I don't want to break up with you Juan, especially if it's only because this Old Lady who made you turn away from me" Vira's cerocos no longer thought about the circumstances surrounding her.


All eyes looked at Elvira's voice making Juan want to stuff the woman's mouth.


"See your words Miss Timothy !" snapped Juan.


Via himself tried to hold back his laughter, he did not expect that this sweet girl who was in front of him was feeling jealous of him.


"You're more defensive of this Lady Juan," said Vira, the girl was really angry.


Juan could no longer hold back his emotions, his hands clenched tightly on the table.


"You get your business done, Mom wait in the car" said Via softly as he stroked his clenched son's hand.


"Don't use violence on Juan's woman !" added Via trying to remind his youngest son.


"Well Mom, I won't be long" replied Juan.


Vira who heard Juan calling the beautiful woman before him instantly felt stiff. His tongue felt like a mute, his body as if it was glued in place can not be moved.


Via leaves Juan and the girl for his car while shaking his head.


You young man, murmured Via.


Juan pulls up Elvira's arm looking for a quiet corner of the room, he doesn't want to continue being a free spectacle of the people who are at the restaurant.


"Take me off, where are we going Juan?" elvira asked in confusion because from earlier Juan just dragged her without saying a word.


After they arrived near the toilet at the end and was a little quiet, Juan released Vira's hand.


Elvira rubbed her wrist which hurt a little because of Juan's hand.


"You remember what I said Elvira !" juan said with great emphasis.


"We've broken up and you have no right to interfere in all my affairs" Juan snapped loudly, to the chirping of Elvira.


"And the other one I'm telling you, the one you just called Old Madam is my mother. Big madam of the Pratama family, remember that !" juan emphasized every word he said.


Juan soon leaves Vira to catch up with his mother who has returned to the car.


Vira's mind was suddenly blank, this time not only would she not get Juan, but she had also offended the woman he wanted to make his mother-in-law. Destroyed Vira's hope, there was nothing left. Maybe he had to bury his desire to be with Juan.


Juan entered his Maybach, where Via the Mommy had been waiting for him.


"I'm sorry it's been so long" Juan said, he wasn't happy to let his mother wait alone in the car.


"And forgive also the speech and behavior of Vira," added Juan, he was afraid that his mother was offended by the words made by Elvira.


Via shook his head,


"Mom understands dear," said Via softly,


"So that's your girlfriend Elvira ?" ask her son who is busy driving.


"Former Mom" Juan said because he broke up with Elvira a week ago.


Via nodded his head in understanding.


"Who else is your boyfriend now ?" asked Via curious, because he knew all this time his son always changed partners once every month. Via is actually angry with Juan's habit, but his youngest son always assures him that the relationship he is doing is a healthy relationship, so even though he always bergonta replace the young couple never crossed his line.


"No Mom" replied Juan, who was still busy driving.


Hearing his son's answer arrived an idea appeared in Via's head. An idea he thought was brilliant, that might change the nature of his playboy son. He smiled happily at the idea.
