"How are you?" finally Bara re-opened his voice, after a long silence, watching Clara who focused on arranging her order flowers.
Clara turned her attention away from the flowers towards Bara for a moment and then again focused on arranging the flowers with her agile hands. "As I see it. I'm doing fine. And what I saw, Mas also seemed to be fine," said Clara without looking again at Bara.
"Is this shop yours?" bara asked back while circulating his gaze throughout the room.
"Yes. Just a little bit but enough to finance my life and an ...." Clara almost reveals that she has a child from their first marriage.
"And what?" She squinted her eyes, suspicious.
Clara suddenly turned her body, pretending as if she was trying to take something, so that Bara's focus was a little disturbed and forgot the words hanging in her throat earlier. Clara deliberately took another red rose, when in fact the previous amount was enough.
"It's finally done!" Clara gave him two finished bouquets of flowers which she arranged very nicely and so beautifully.
I did not want to continue the question. It seems Clara's way of getting the man's attention distracted really worked. The man reached out his hand to take the flowers from Clara's hand. The man's hand reached out to pick up the flowers, but his eyes never escaped Clara's face.
Feeling stared at by Bara intensely, made Clara misbehave. The woman deliberately turned her gaze in the other direction.
"Have you married again?" ask Bara again to stop the awkwardness that was created. Why could he ask such a question? it was because suddenly the man remembered that he had seen Clara together with a man in the restaurant, which had left his mood in ruins that day.
Clara did not answer. However, the woman's head shook her head in a sign that she was responding to her ex-husband's question.
"Why?" bara's eyebrows are tangled, probing. Somehow there was a feeling of relief that arose in his heart once he found out that Clara had not married again.
Clara took a deep breath and exhaled it back into the air. "That's because maybe it's not time yet. When the time comes, maybe I will not refuse if I will marry again" said Clara, in a soft tone.
Hearing the answer given by the woman in front of him, there was a hint of disappointment arising in his heart. Though she was hoping, Clara replied that she had not been able to open her heart to other men because her feelings of love were still the same as before.
"Oh, like that? All righty! I hope you can find the best. How many flowers is this?" Bara finally decided to quickly pass from that place. The man's hand was seen reaching into his pocket and taking out his wallet. The same wallet as when the two of them were still together. The wallet was cheap, and was bought by Clara.
Meanwhile, Bara who saw Clara's gaze towards her wallet, instantly her face turned red.
"I still wear it because I haven't bought a new wallet. I was too busy to think about changing my wallet," without being asked, Bara immediately made his own clarification without realizing that the reason he had made was completely absurd. How was it that before he met Clara first and before he had amnesia, he did not have an expensive wallet collection just yet.
"Oh, like that? anyway, I didn't ask, Mas" Clara tried to hold back her laughter.
"Eh, be-what was this?" nervously, I repeated the question.
"Bring it up, Mas! let's just say it's my gift to your wife" Clara tried to smile. Anyone could see that his smile was so bitter.
"Wife? this flower is not for my wife at all" Bara said. "Haish, I hate to mention my wife to that woman" Bara continued, but of course he only dared to say it in his heart.
"Oh, isn't it?" sorry if I was wrong,"
"This flower was requested by my son, because he wanted to give it as a gift to his teacher for his birthday today," without asking again, Bara happily explained as if there was a fear of the man that Clara misunderstood him.
"Oh, like that? yes, then just bring the flowers do not need to pay. I give you free for your son,"
"It can't be like that! it's your business, so anyway I have to keep paying. It's the money, isn't it?" Bara put the money of one hundred thousand about 10 pieces, and passed away before his ex-wife refused to return.
"This coke is too much!" clara exclaimed, preventing the man from leaving.
Bara stopped his steps and turned his body back to look towards Clara.
"Take it! You definitely need more money than me. Oh yeah, happy birthday!" the man concluded, and then continued his steps back, leaving Clara frozen in place.
