The Stunning My Life

Made up

A day ago, Mini and I had just attended Lusy's birthday party. We didn't stay overnight, because Mini had a lot of college work to do, and she couldn't bear to leave Susa home alone. As for me, my work also piled up.

I've paid twice. Yesterday I was able to give you envelopes for mom and dad. They both looked happy and excited. Mercifully.

I can only repay them with a portion of my salary. I should have taken care of mom and dad, too, but there was already Karina and her husband, Bimo.

Maybe later when I already have my own house, I will take my mother and father to my house occasionally. Or maybe, mom and dad want to stay with me there?

Right now I'm a little less fit. Lately I often stay up late to catch up on my writing deadline. And my responsibilities in the office have started to add up.

I don't know why Adi has been asking me for help lately. I can't refuse because I'm afraid.

And finally, I got to do some unfinished office work at home. Managing employee data for example. And my job is not just that.

I also want to take a sewing course. Do I have time for that?

***

On Sunday night, Mini and Haris go on a date together. Susa must be busy in her room. A week ago, Bulik Susan just got a promotion. I'm happy, and now the responsibility of Bulik Susan is just as high.

I was looking at my phone in bed. There, the number of the Juna King of the Universe looked like it was dead because it had been a month since the man had never contacted me.

Right now I'm thinking of a way to meet Juna again. Do I need to contact him first by sending him whatsapp messages?

I know my relationship with Juna is like a real wreck. But for some reason, it feels like I still have something that the man left behind. Besides the sweet memories, and the taste is still left behind.

"Jacket!" I cried in that quiet room.

"Juna Jacket!" I smile.

I forgot, I haven't returned Juna's jacket after buying chicken noodles back then. And that time in the city library, that,

“Oh, yes. Your jacket is still the same as mine, huh. I forgot about that time. Do I leave it to Mini tomorrow to be given to you?”

Juna seemed to think for a moment. “Lo take it first. Later if I tell you to lo balikin new lo balikin,” he said.

I'm nodding.

I opened my closet. There, Juna's black jacket still folded neatly. I grinned at the eiger jacket.

I closed the closet, then went back to the bed to pick up my phone. I rushed to mewhatsapp Juna.

Sophia: Juna, I'd like to see you for a second.

Five minutes. Ten minutes. Juna hasn't opened my message yet. One sec. Two seconds. He started typing.

Juna : I can't.

Sophia: Your jacket is still my same. I just want to go back to that.

Juna: Anytime. I can't see you now.

Sophia: Anyway I'm waiting for you on Pomegranate Road! See you's....

Juna just read my message. He also often forced. Now it's my turn.

I changed clothes and prepared, then immediately put Juna's jacket into the paper bag. I took a pair with Bulik Susan and hurried off with Fino.

***

The Pomegranate Road...

Sophia: Juna, I'm at Jalan Pomegranate.

I've been waiting for Juna for about 15 minutes there, but Juna never came too. He didn't see my whatsapp either. I sent him another message.

Sophia: Juna, you're coming, right?

Again, Juna did not read my message.

I'm starting to get bored. It was getting late, and the streets were getting quiet. I was still sitting standing and standing, unsettled, waiting for Juna to arrive.

Tling. A message notification made me quickly open it.

Juna : I can't come, Sophiaaa.

I can't believe Juna just typed that. I've been waiting an hour there. And it's 9 p.m. I'm sure Kidnapping Susan must be worried about me at home.

Sophia: I'm still on Pomegranate Street. I will stay here until you come.

Juna: Come back now! Why are you still there??? It's malem. The danger!!!

Sophia: I HAVE WAITED IN LO!

Again, Juna just read my message.

Actually I'm scared too. The streets are completely deserted. This is my first time wandering around alone. But for the sake of meeting Juna, I had to fight that fear.

I'm starting to get anxious. Five minutes. Ten minutes. Two strangers approached me.

"Neng, what's the malem-malem here?" ask one of the men.

I did not dare to answer and suddenly wave. I hope they're not bad people.

"The motor's broken, huh, Neng?" The man asked again.

"No, my mom. I'm waiting for you." I was actually very nervous and scared.

The two men started to approach me and Fino. One man stroked Fino, and the other stood to my right, looking at the bag I was carrying. My feeling is not right now.

I froze in silence and prepared to stand by if the two people suddenly messed around.

Five seconds. Ten seconds. The man next to me started touching my hands. I quickly dismissed it.

He chuckles. "Neng, malem-malem gini delights bobo at home. Why do you stay here waiting for me? What if I am together with my brother?"

"Don't macem-macem, yeah!!!" I can only get those words out. The streets are so quiet. The street looks bright and romantic in the evening. But, I don't know if that road could be this dangerous at night.

I quickly boarded Fino to escape. But as I started to step up, the two men held me back and pushed me.

I'm tumbling. The two bastards laughed. My heart beats hard. My breath began to hunt fear.

One of the men was clutching my jaw. I hurried to slap him hard then pushed.

I stood up to run. But one of them stabbed me in the back. I rebelled as much as I could.

If they want Fino or my money, I'll give it to them. But if they're rude to me, I can't allow that. But me, I am also unable to resist the power of the two men.

They insisted on pulling me. I also still insist on rebelling to save myself.

Tiiinnnn..., tinnn...., tiiiinnnn...!!! The motor horn sounded loud approaching us. The two bastards immediately ran off the ridge.

"Sophia, I told you it's the same you make it back. Why do you still make ngeyel here waiting for me? You're almost totally out of your stubbornness!" Juna scolded me after getting off his bike.

I stared disappointedly at the man who was standing about a meter away from me. My tears are starting to flow. I threw the paper bag containing the black eiger jacket at Juna.

"Gue just wants to turn that around!" I sobbed. "Gue just wants to see you! I just want to apologize!" seruku is getting sobbing.

Juna looked at me sharply. "Why do you want to see me? Why would you apologize to me?" Juna looked angry there. "Why?" He's squealing.

I, who was still shocked by the incident, was now more afraid of Juna screeching. My chest feels so sore.

"Lo himself told me not to like you. And now why are you like this?" Juna screamed again.

My hands started shaking. I can't answer. My breath was shuffled irregularly.

"Why did you get it?" Juna slowly walked up to me while still carrying the white paper bag I threw at him earlier. Juna stood right in front of me a little closer. "Why are you diem?" Again and again, Juna screeched.

That voice made me even more cornered. I was terrified looking at Juna's crooked face. Even that fear made my tears stop on their own. But my breath, it continues to hunt irregularly.

"Just because of this jacket, you want to come here malem-malem and meet the two bastards earlier?" tanya Juna lifted the paper bag in her hand right in front of my face.

"Gue just wants to see you!" I answered screaming.

"Why?" sahut Juna shouted even louder.

The corners of my eyes started getting wet again. I clenched my trembling hands. I don't know why I'm so scared of Juna's anger. That sounds like hate to me.

"Look at me" Juna told me to start to lower his voice. Juna's screams scared me to look at him. "Look at me, Sophia!"

Juna dropped the paper bag from his hand, then grabbed my face. "Sophia, look at me," asked Juna to cupper my face.

I was just watching trying to catch my breath. One sec. Two seconds. I dared to look at Juna.

Juna took off his stalk from my face. He looked at me inside. "Why do you want to see me?"

I swallowed nervously. "Gue just wanted to see you." My answer.

"Yes, why are you just going to see me???"

"Because I don't want to lose you!!!" I screamed at Juna.

My breath is hunting again. Juna should have calmed me down because of that. But now, he keeps interrogating me.

Juna kept looking at me. One sec. Two seconds. Three seconds. Juna suddenly kissed my lips. He gripped violently as if he didn't want to lose me either.

I widen my eyes. Why would Juna do that after yelling at me? I tried to push Juna. But as I tried to do so, Juna pushed me more and more into his actions.

Juna was pressing down on my nape and waist. My heart keeps on spreading inside. What are we doing on these deserted streets? I can only watch for resignation waiting for Juna to finish him.

***

Juna and I sat together on the side of the street. This time Juna told me to calm down while stroking my back.

"Don't do crazy things like this anymore. I used to say right, just bring the jacket, you can turn back if I have told you to make a return," said Juna to me.

I who had been looking down earlier started to look at Juna. "Continue when? When did you tell me to put that jacket back on?"

Juna was silent.

"Gue's not sure. You're definitely not gonna tell me to turn around that jacket because-" I cut my own words.

We're still staring at each other.

"Because I really love you, I'm afraid you why, so I came here," said Juna suddenly.

Juna kept looking at me. "Sophia, I like, I love, I love you the same lo."

"Gue too. I don't want to lose you, Juna. I'm sorry for what I said in that cafe."

Juna smiled. "No pa-pa. I know why you're like that."

I'm smiling too. "Thank you, Juna."

Juna hugged me. "Lo know why I couldn't meet you earlier? Because I have a family event. My mom's on her birthday, and I should be there. But if I dare to say if you still wait for me here, Mother told me to make susulin lo," explained Juna still hugging me. "I'm glad I'm not late."

I just kept feeling bad about Juna and his family.

Juna's hug made me feel so relieved. That warm and comfortable feeling pays for everything. Now I'm sure I've chosen the right man.

Juna stopped his embrace. "So now we're dating, huh?" Juna, his naughty smile relapsed again.

"So you ask me to date, huh?" godaku reply.

Juna laughed at the top of my head. The sweet treatment, always successful to make my chest rippled.

***

It's been over 10pm. Kidnapping Susan and Mini sent me a lot of messages, but I just read them. They must be very worried.

Juna also drove me home by following Fino from behind with his black kawasaki trail bike.

Once at home, Juna apologized to Bulik Susan for returning me very late. I didn't tell Juna to do that, but he took the initiative. I don't blame him either, because it's actually my fault.

Bulik Susan looked a little angry, but she also seemed to trust Juna a lot. From the very beginning, Bulik Susan had indeed agreed to our relationship.

Juna. Me, Mini, and Kidnap Susan started to head to their respective rooms.

***

In a room with a mini...

"It's a good thing you're okay, Phi. But it's a selamet, yes." Mini smiled at me.

I told Mini everything, except for that kiss scene. I should shut up about that.

I smile and cover my face.

"Cie cie. lovebird." Mini wettest.

"Apaan, anyway." Faces blushing.

"Azekkkk.., a Sophia now has a mooring of her heart, Juna Raja Semestahhh...."

I hit Mini with the bolster I cuddled. She kept laughing until Bulik Susan yelled at us to be quiet from her bedroom.

Today, Juna and I are officially in a relationship. I think it's like a dream. I am a Sophia who has long been alone who is shackled with bachelor status, now has a lover who is like Juna King of the Universe. A cool, handsome guy who's been praised by people as cool as he is.

I once thought that this was inappropriate. But since Juna made me sure of his feelings, this relationship feels right to live and maintain.

I promise to always protect our relationship. Because I still hold my principles, to continue with the one man I have chosen. And Juna, he's the right man for me. [ ]
