The Possessive Inclined

eps 59s

"Vi, what's your smile?" ask Mami who just came out of the bathroom.

"Abis read chat, mi. Because I just opened hp, eeee. Dizziness reading it," I replied as I busily checked the incoming chat from the others.

"Vi, we leave at 06:30. We're going to Milan."

"Good, mi."

My mother was busy with her long hair. Even though he was 58 years old, the gray hair on his head was quite small and he also did not want to dye his hair black evenly, so just natural he said.

Chat with some of my clients I've already replied to. Chat with my employees is also running. Beres. It's time to take a shower and get ready for Milan. Milan is a city center that is famous for shopping centers, economic centers, and the architect of the coolest buildings so that many attract tourists visiting there.

Mami and I are planning to do a fashion show in one of the luxury buildings in Milan. I can't wait to see the building we rented.

Milan, here we come....

One of the modern but elegant buildings, became our choice place to do a performance that will last four more days. We are reviewing the place and working with several organizers who can help us decorate the place according to the theme of our fashion show.

"Where's the place? Good?" ask the mother who wants to hear my opinion.

"Cool, mi," I replied after looking around her interesting place. "It's expensive, mi?" The price is definitely fantastic.

"The problem of rental prices will definitely return capital with the results of our income later. So mami sure, here is the source of our sustenance," said mami definitely.

"Yes, mi. We have to try as much as possible so that our sales are selling well."

"Sure, dear," said Mami with a satisfied smile. "Mommy wants to find the owner of this building first. Mommy made a pact with him to meet here. Mommy went there first. You can see the location here!" pamit mami while going to another room for further review.

In a multi-storey building with sharp floodlights and catwalk streets in front of my eyes, now I can only be my hallucination while imagining the models walking in their style while wearing mami design clothes and wearing jewerly from my work. I imagined my position sitting watching them display our work gracefully and...

"Via!" call someone who breaks my daydream.

"Yes!" I answered while searching for the source of the voice.

In front of me right now stood a handsome man who was no stranger. It's just that I kind of forgot his name.

"Call me yet?" tanyanya.

"Nngggs... Who yeah? Sorry, I forgot!" politely replied.

"Haha.... I'm Hendra Wijaya, Vi" she said with a smile as she looked at me a little confused considering her name.

"Oooooo-o... Hendra?"

*Hendra Wijaya

It's no mistake that Hendra was my high school friend in high school. Why is he here, huh? It was a coincidence to meet him. I haven't heard from him in a long time.

"What's right here?" tanyanya.

I looked around looking for my mom. "I nemenin my mama ngadain fashion show here."

"Oh yeah? What's your mom's name?"

"His name is Laurence Magdalene. Why?"

"That means who rented this building...your mom?"

"Yes! How... You know?" now it's my turn to be curious.

"Haha... I'm the owner of this place" he replied confidently.

"Ooo... Great dong could have a place this good!" praise amazed.

"good. You've been in Italy for a long time?"

"Yes, from college, to graduation and work here."

"Well...have you never returned to Indonesia to meet your family?"

"I don't want to go home yet. But sometimes my parents like to come visit me."

"Why not go home yet? You really don't miss your hometown?"

He just smiled at me. "There's no reason for me to go home."

I was confused by what he said just now, there was no reason for him to go home. What does family mean to him? Does he have no friends in Indonesia?

"Can't your parents be an excuse for you to come home?" I asked in a soft tone of fear that there were words that offended him.

He just shook his head slowly. "I like someone, but he likes someone else. Until now, I'm still waiting for him. That's why I don't want to go home. I'm afraid of heartache."

"Oooooo-o... Apparently so. Why are you waiting for something uncertain? Don't a lot of girls like you too? You look handsome when no one likes it? No way."

"Haha.. Long time no see, you have progress in judging people."

"What time?"

"Yes! You changed a lot. At least you're not alone with Victor on."

He still remembers Victor apparently.

"I.e., ordinary. Maybe it's because of the association also when I work, so it's more used to interacting with others."

"Oh yeah, how's Victor doing? You guys still dating?"

I was shocked to hear his question. Does he really know nothing about Victor's dead? Hasn't anyone told her all this time? They are legitimate. Victor and Hendra were best friends before I knew me. Since I dated Victor, their relationship has been a bit strained and until now I do not know the reason why their friendship seemed to just break up.

"Vi! Via!" calling out to him while waving a little in front of my face spread out my daydream.

"Victors... It's gone" I replied that left him dumbfounded.

"What?" tanyanya could not believe it. "Seriously? When?"

I try to strengthen my faith to answer the short question because it disturbs my memory back about Victor.

"15 years ago when we were in college together. He was in a race accident and hit his head on the asphalt so unconscious and...." I couldn't go on because my tears were almost on my cheeks.

He rubbed my right arm. "Sorry! I don't know if he's gone. I'm sorry I asked you."

I keep my tears that don't spill. I stared up at the ceiling of the multi-storey building while wagging my fingers so that my tears would be reabsorbed back to their origin. Fortunately it worked, so the embarrassing thing did not happen.

"Gakpa. I'm strong without him. But.." I said stop for a moment because I was worried between asking him something or not.

"But, what?"

"How can I know why your friendship is strained?" Finally I tried to ventured to ask because I was always curious to know the answer.

"Ekhmm.." Dehemnya who when he did not cough. "I have a conflict with him. I admit, I was too selfish at the time, but yeah that's me. Until now maybe I am still with my selfishness so now I am a bit sorry after knowing Victor has gone without my knowledge," he said, bowing his head. It seems that he was a bit heavy telling me and there were regrets there. "I like the same girl as him" he continued.

The same girl? Does Victor have any other demons besides me?

"meaning?" many ensure.

"I like you too" he replied, looking down at me. "I like you too. Even before you guys are dating. Wasn't I the one who accompanied you before you knew Victor?"
