THE WAY YOU LOVE ME

20

I'm ready to wait for her. I was wearing a pink t-shirt with jeans. I don't use any make up.

not because I'm lazy, but, everything is out I even use a clothes fragrance instead of perfume.

enough money I have to save.

I hope yofie doesn't get bored looking at me. I'm just an ordinary girl with the right conditions. fitting fitting fitting'an that must be in his life as a friend.

I really want to be a friend to him. If I like too much there will be injuries.

I walked towards the front porch. I waited for the yofie with hope - please worry.I chose to sit on the wooden chair on the terrace.looking at the green leaves in the garden, gurgling water in front of me.

actually, the afternoon atmosphere in this place gives me a sense of comfort to just sit and "metime" for me.

it felt like my heart was mixed....

There's a sense of happiness..

There's a sense of pleasure..

There's a longing..

Yep...

A longing that I don't know I've ever experienced with anyone else. Different from my miss to my sister. Even with my parents.also my longing for him who hurt too deeply.everything is different....

A longing that makes my heart beat hard. Ah, I'm crazy apparently.

I sat on the porch alone. I took a few breaths out of my mouth. Interesting though.... Exhales..

I did it a few times. It's usually powerful for me to neutralize my nervousness.

I saw the sky that night, there weren't usually many stars. Beautiful tonight, like an unusual night.

"What's Cath looking at?"

I realized, apparently Yofie was already beside me.

"Sister... Since when is here?? " I asked with unblinking eyes.

How not, in front of me was a man who was dashing and sweet. Men are fragrant and always neat with casual clothes.

That night Yofie wore shoes, white bone jeans and a navy T-shirt with the words Hn'm.

"Must be Cath, you just keep looking over. Yes, I'm coming with you.." Answer Yofie.

"Yes brother.... Great sky.." I felt blushed hearing his words.

"It's great, yeah, I rarely see this many stars... Mumpung still not too late... "

I just nodded.

I stood up and Yofie was right in front of me. I feel my heart beating again. Something is wrong for sure.

Yofie's hand grabbed the back of my shoulder. What is he doing? Maybe it's like the part of the movie I used to watch?

I closed my eyes a little. I was so hopeful like the ones in the movies I used to see. Where when hugging each other or the man kissed the woman's forehead.

"Nih wear a helmet, Cath, I just bought it. Well... It's enough in your head...." Yofie put a black helmet on my head.

I opened my eyes immediately. I blinked my eyes a few times. Yep... I'm shocked.

"Sister... Ye? This helmet? Did you make me a helmet?" I asked.

"Yes dong, what else? I don't want to take any chances on the streets... It suits you anyway .. "

I saw from the reflection of the glass. Pretty good too..

"Sister.. Where did the white helmet go? There was something I used to wear... "

"Oh that... Um... I lost somewhere... Uhm... Yuk jalan aja... "

Yofie immediately opened the fence and took out his sport bike. I followed her out and closed the door.

I got on Yofie's vehicle. My reflex was holding Yofie's jacket, and he looked at me from the rearview mirror.

"You want to hug me too gapapa.... "

My cheeks became red, but I chose to stay still and hide from the glass.

Our journey began. Time slows down when I'm with him. I enjoyed the trees and all the scenery around me.

The smell of yofie perfume is also so pronounced. I want to lean on even for a moment. However, I realize. I can't be like this.

We also stopped at the parking lot. I got down and took off the helmet. Yofie put our helmets on the bike.

We also walked into the restaurant. Pasta and Pizza. This is one of the foods I like.

We also sat on the right side. There was a place consisting of several sofas and wooden chairs.

The waiter approached us and gave us a menu. I read and started to choose.

"Carbonara and mineral water yes mas... " I said to the servant.

"Yes, yes... " Yofie answered the same.

The menu was taken back and the waiter left us. I felt awkward about the situation between us.

I looked at the exit. The transparent glass door became my sight.

"That rain... Fortunately, my brother had a roof.. " I'm trying to melt the mood.

"Ah yes Cath... Good thing for us, yeah..." Yofie smiled at me. Jeez my heart is pounding at her smile.

"..... " I can't say anything. My palms also became cold.

"should? This woman is our star?" Jimmy held a portfolio in his hands.

"Yes sir, he's a new artist. It is fresh and there is a lot of gossip about him. This could be an important point.... It must be our movie... " Lutfi convinced Jimmy with the artist.

"....... " Jimmy looked at the file and remembered who this woman really was.

"Ah ...... Car collision scene.... " Jimmy said.

"Yes sir, but he's an expensive asset. So we're using a stunt double.... "

"Stup! Expensive where? You almost made someone else disabled. For her? Silly." Jimmy threw the file in his hand.

"Sir... After all, that woman is still alive. And not deformed either, relax sir.... Or I'll have coffee or tea with him... Let it get closer... " Lutfi tried to make another offer.

"meaning?"

"Mother must be curious about this woman. We sit back and relax, sir... How's it?" Lutfi raised his eyebrows.

"...... " Jimmy clenched his hands and covered his mouth.

"Or do you also want to meet the woman who hit it too? I can bring it to my father too... "

"Tomorrow at 6 o'clock in TeaGarden... " Jimmy said.

"Yes.... Siyappi! I can definitely take it sir... " Lutfi sumringah.

"Well, can you leave me alone? I have to make an intercall call... " Jimmy said.

Lutfi immediately stood up and left the room. A happy face and a big smile adorned his face.

After getting out of Jimmy's room. Lutfi pulled out the phone. He pushed someone's number.

"Hallo... Lo tomorrow to the teagarden at Greenbaymall at 6. Bring your assistant who has been with you before... "

"Why? Yes, I want my boss. You are living hard! The tree is yes.. Without that girl, you can't meet BigBoss gw.!"

Lutfi's tone of voice changed. Looks like his interlocutor didn't like Jimmy's wishes.

"Thank you, brother, you paid for dinner. It feels so full... Tomorrow's payday, replace me.... " I said to yofie.

"Cath relax.... Brother Seneng there is a meal. Oh yes, tomorrow you want to go to the city? Brother's got an exhibition invitation, just watch it..."

"Tomorrow I work, brother... I'm sorry, brother, I want to, but I'm sorry..... " I squeezed the strap of my sling bag.

It's upset not to go with Yofie. I say goodbye to him too.

"Sister... I go in first... Yea... "

"Wait Cath... " Yofie held me back, I turned my back.

"Good break Cath... Thank you for this mall.... "

My face turned red hearing the words. I held back my smile, embarrassed to hear Yofie say that.

"Yes brother... I'll rest first... " I left Yofie on the porch.

I went inside and stood at the door of my room. I just grabbed the doorknob. But someone from the inside opened it first.

"That'satrineee!!! You didn't say that when you came.... " Jessy surprised me. He hugged me very tightly.

"Yes Jess... Sorry my pulse is out, so I can't text you... Heehee's... " I patted her on the shoulder as we hugged.

"Ah... You have entered.. You have to tell me what happened at home... " Jessy pulled me into the room.

jessy followed me sitting next to me. It seemed better that I was talking as necessary with Jessy.

"how are you - Papa Cath? healthy? how is it going there... Is it better? ah you have to tell Cath... "

"..... " in my mind, why did the story to him. there is no benefit and there is no benefit.

I smiled then said, "all healthy jes.. do not lack anything really. and also all good well aja.lo itself where aja jes? kok from mornings I dateng lo engga... "

"ah. emm.. gw tu go the same temen. because how yes, I'm alone not at home here.lo anyway go sm work mulu.". " replied Jessy while stammering.

"oh that, uhm... I'm not sure if it works how do Jess dapet money? oh yes, yesterday fitting in the house. I saw the news, there is a new artist who raided the same senior artist in the apartment room.. that's not you, is it?" I shot the question.

"that's actually gw Cath.. he's the co-star gw, just the incident. I'm more careful with him. The term is role deepening.but people think it's different. even though I wasn't as low as they thought. "Jessy's face turned sad.

"you should seneng Jes, if there is a case of gini, your name can go up. even according to gw lo who later will be profitable as well."

"according to you? anyway, there is an offer of several jobs for me... "

I patted jessy on the shoulder.

"it's Jes. whatever they're talking about you, assume they're not the ones going through. So go a head! go ahead, you also get angry... "

"thanks yes Cathrine..thanks always thought and gave positive input to me.." jessy hugged me and shed tears.

"sure jes. that's friend are for. "I answered.

"tomorrow afternoon join me the way - the road yes. I want to buy lo eat. because yesterday I dapet many Job. payment gw also already liquid... pleaseee. can yes..."

I immediately let go of Jessy's embrace. "tomorrow I work jes... I can also leave behind at 5 pm... how?"

"engga papa Cath. we will take a taxi..."

"lah, if only want to pay in I eat. why must it be far away Jes... a lot of good food around here. why is it far there all?" I'm squinting.

"i want to pay to an expensive place to eat. and not necessarily you know the auntie kost can take you to eat there...

I've picked her up tomorrow at the stall. "jessy stood up and moved to her bed.

"jes... What's so weird? want to make sure to eat but, the work clothes I must be less good clothes... "

Jessy was silent and smiled a little, "yes? I just want to take you there. And you have to follow.no matter what your business is.... "

I feel bad.

"it's hard jes. next time aja, lo go the same temen - temen hang out lo aja. I let work and rest. because the head gw dizzy, still mabok land gw... " then I went into the bathroom.

I lit a hot water faucet, but I didn't take a shower, I just washed my hands, feet and face.

'definitely he was planning something. he was so forced to join me. Jessy must have a special purpose.after all, he had not come home here for a long time... '

I then turned off the water and took a towel. I wiped my face and came out of the bathroom.

how shocked I was when Jessy was about to leave. she was preparing to leave, but almost brought all her stuff.

"where are you going? malem jes... and also.. you want to move?" i asked.

"gw want to go to the apartment guy gw. oh yes I left some clothes here. if you want to be able to pinjem. about the cost money, I've paid until 5 months ahead. so you place yes, gratiss. "Jessy's tone is kind of humbling to me.

"oh that, thanks Jess....lo will you go back? in a few days or weeks."

jessy was busy with all her stuff.

"maybe.. but I don't know also anyway. if my man ngajak traveling yes... will be old.. hahhaa.. see this necklace gw, a gift from him... "

jessy showed me a necklace with initials J. The necklace around her neck was nice, but it made me glare.

"welcome Jes.may you be happy always yes..."

"definitely Cath.. gw ga will be wrong choose. this loyal guy, ga will not let go. "jessy continue packing.

all his stuff almost went into the cardboard and the bag.

"do I help you?" I'm standing by Jessy's stuff.

"eh gausah, later you are tired again.tomorrow anyway you have to come. I don't want you to follow.because I want to eat sm lo.... "

I just nodded, Jessy left me. My bedroom door was closed and the key.

then I lay down, tired of my body.

I better sleep, tomorrow I start work again.where I should be able to get extra money again.
