THE WAY YOU LOVE ME

60

"So.. Do you forgive ?" Jimmy opened his voice.

"..... " I scrunched my forehead, which really is. I'm enjoying the hug again, but if I'm sorry about my pride. It's so easy for him to apologize!

"Cathrine.... " Jimmy rubbed my head.

"Yes..." I then let go of Jimmy's embrace.

"I'm actually angry and sad. You slap and talk rudely to me. Papa never did that to me...... But what else do I want.... "

"Shh .. Excuse me.... I was too late last night.... " Jimmy hugged me back.

The smell of Jimmy's parfume calms my soul. There is one thing that bothers me too.

"Are you going to slap me again.....?"

Jimmy shook his head.

"You're too drunk, are you going to do that to another woman. Doing what we normally do.. Also... " I shed tears.

Jimmy turned my body to face him. He looked at me sharply, but the look in his eyes hinted at sadness.

"I can't say anything Cathrine. I'm not going to hurt you in anything anymore. L'm.... I'm..." Jimmy's mouth was heavy to say.

"..... " I just kept quiet and stroked Jimmy's hair.

"I know you need time to forget... I'm not gonna push, but let's stay with Cathrine... "

I smiled a little and hugged Jimmy. I don't know, it's hard to forget. But I always wanted to go back to him.

*******

"Stacy, should we invite Cathrine?"

"obvious.. Why hingga? It's just a reception, what's weird... " Stacy answered casually.

"..... " Yofie only looked at the invitation in her hand with the words Jimmy - Cathrine.

"Do you still think of that woman? Inget, you want to be a father. The woman also had a husband... " Cynical Tone Stacy spoke to Yofie.

"..... " Yofie simply exhaled deeply and placed the invitation.

Stacy is busy making all the preparations and invitations that will be spread.

Yofie's been postponing this marriage for a long time.

If it wasn't for Stacy admitting pregnancy to Yofie. Maybe he'll take Cathrine.

Yofie obviously hated the woman he was going to marry. He was also a weak man, so afraid of his parents.

He did not even dare to say his wish.

How can she go about the household later? Evidently.... Everything will be arranged by Stacy.

"Hallo..... This is gw stacy.... Malem can meet at TeaGarden, right? I want to say something important with you.. Yea... " Stacy spoke on the phone.

Then he put down his phone and looked sharply at Yofie.

"Who's on the phone, who's using Hp gw?" Yofie.

"Cathrine." Answer Stacy briefly.

"Huh? She's gonna lift???" Yofie's face changed.

"Yes, the mallm I want to go and you have to use really nganter gw... "

Then Stacy left Yofie alone in the living room. I don't know what she wants to do at the woman's job.

Yofie smiled to himself, in his heart he was happy to meet the woman he loved.

*********

That morning my phone rang. I let go of Jimmy's hug and took my phone.

"Yofie?" I read the call from whom.

"Hallo" I said at the call line.

"Oh, okay... Set aja... "

The call was interrupted, I put my phone back. Then I sat down and began my morning ritual by praying.

Jimmy woke up and sat down next to me. When I opened my eyes, he smiled at me too.

"Yofie call? There's something else... " Jimmy asked.

"Stacy's on the phone, she's meeting at TeaGarden at 6 o'clock maybe, I kind of forgot... "

"Then you want to go there?"

"Uhm... " I doubt whether to see you or not.

I remember how Stacy looked at me. I also remember how rudely he spoke to me.

"You want, I'll go with you... " Jimmy said, then I looked at Jimmy.

"Alright, I'm lazy to meet actually. But, there might be something important that he wanted to convey... " I answered.

"Invitation?"

"Maybe... " I went to prepare breakfast for us.

Today seems better for us. Jimmy got ready and left after he had breakfast.

Ms. Sumi came early to clean and wash our clothes. I was just busy watching and preparing for the course.

"Non's leaving?" Ask Sumi.

"Yes Ma'am, I am now a cooking course at the commercial shop next door. But only until 1 o'clock at most Ma'am.... We are always rich, ma'am... " I answered.

"Yes.non heart - heart on the road, now many bad people... "

"Yes ma'am, I go first huh.... "

I left Sumi too. Walk leisurely towards the course.

I passed the unit where yesterday, I met Nicky. I don't know, I was like looking for Nicky.

It feels good to find a friend who lives close to us. Yeah, I'm looking around for him.

It seems like yesterday was just a coincidence I met him. I chose to walk again towards the course.

Nicky was sitting there in front of the entrance. One of the stairs with a cigarette in his hand.

I approached him and stood in front of him. He looked at me indifferently. We just kept quiet and threw each other a glance.

"Morning.. It's just a get-together here.. " Inez is coming.

"Yes Nez, I'm here in the morning. While relaxed... " Answer.

"Eh, is your toothache gone? Pipi lo uda ga bruised same ga use mask again... " Inez pointed at my cheek.

"Yes the doctor's medicine is steady, I'm cured.. " I grimaced in Inez.

"Doctor what's her, most in the same affection swab her man... " Nicky cynical.

"Eh, big Cathrine, normal chick doyan same guy... Anyway gini lo ga ngapa day - same boyfriend.. Not maybe Nick... " Inez is playing Nicky.

"Daughter.... A girl lives in the same room as her guy... "

"Why do you say that to me? What's the problem with you same? " i said reply nicky.

Nicky seemed surprised, he then turned off his cigarette and threw it away.

"Gw don't mean what. I just know enough about what women.. I thought you'd be different because of the area. It turns out I was wrong, you've been living in another guy's room.."

"Nick, you're a kebangetan. Your mouth controls yes by the way... " Inez tried to mediate us.

"Gw was just telling the truth about my assessment of him. After all, it's none of my business that he wants to do anything. Just yesterday I just found out.. She's a fuckin' girl... "

Nicky then left us inside. I'm silent about what Nicky said.

"Cath, you don't get mad.. Maybe Nicky again a few times... Go in yuk.. "

I nodded and went to class. The atmosphere inside was not so full. I'm sitting behind Nicky.

*******

I sat in one of the stalls near our course. Inez was with me for lunch at the time.

"Neck... If I'm angry or offended by Nicky, is it natural?"

"It's only natural, he doesn't deserve to say that either. I also just met Nicky. Can be treated equally easily . His mouth... " Inez is upset.

"Hm..... " I'm just playing a spoon on my plate.

I was so lazy to finish my lunch. Inez instead, he eats casually and voraciously.

"Caths.. You don't eat?"

"Gw again the same thought - said Nicky.... " Answer.

"Actually you're the same Nicky.. Or the day before you have a difference of opinion...? " Inez asked.

"Gw yesterday we left.. Keep meeting Nicky in the garden Apartment, he continues to talk about the point of what I survive with men.... Which... Playing his hand.. Because he saw a bruise on my face.... " obviously.

"Oooooo... Continues to?"

"Yes I said, don't interfere. Nicky doesn't know who I am and who I am.... Even bruised because there was an accident not because I was tortured... " I folded both my hands.

A little cover up who Jimmy is and our relationship.

"Hm... Exaggerated Jimmy, kepo her height.... Oh but she knows where you live with a guy...? " Inez asked again.

"That's what I don't know about Nez... I live in the same apartment.. But he is my fiancee... Well, suppose the guy's a couple.... Simple is Nez... " I'm so confused to explain.

"It is only natural that in the city people live with the rich... Nicky is overrated.. Yesterday, when he was a baper guy.... " Inez calms me down..

I just nodded, then I continued my lunch.

Then I parted ways with Inez. I went back to the apartment and Inez came home on his bike.

I walked around in the middle of a hot day. I didn't see Jimmy or his car in the parking lot. Uh, why am I looking for Jimmy?

******

Jimmy drove his own car that afternoon. Mr. Teddy let us have a family event. So we just went both ways.

I look at the streets in the afternoon. Maybe it's hours of work, the streets tend to get stuck.

"Well, you hungry, baby?" Jimmy asked.

"With Jimmy, I just enjoyed the traffic. All day I was in the same room as the course... "

"Do you want to meet Yofie..?" Jimmy teases.

"Well, too, usually... Who called Stacy... Maybe he's the only one we've met... " I answered.

"I think you still have the same feeling Yofie... "

I was surprised to hear Jimmy say that. Then I turned to Jimmy, and scrunched Dahi.

"Yes, right....? " Jimmy said as he advanced his lower lip.

"You're funny if your lips are that... Rich little boy... Haha... "

Jimmy then corrected the position of his lips as usual.

"You're jealous..... " I flipped Jimmy.

"...... " Jimmy just kept quiet and rolled his eyeballs.

"Kalo diem.. Mean..... " I haven't finished my sentence.

"Yes I'm jealous. " Jimmy cut.

"...... " I was shocked and didn't respond again.

"I've confessed. I'm jealous you're still in touch with Yofie. But, as soon as I know, it's Stacy.. I'm relieved, because you're also indifferent to Yofie's call.I've concluded that it's not tied to Yofie...." Jimmy then glanced at me.

"You know where I got my taste to Yofie...? I just don't know what love is.. What it likes and what is a bond of heart or mind that is bound to each other... " Answer.

"I'm man.. I can feel it if you really like it or not.... I dare to be sure too... You still doubt me... Still scared and full of questions... " Jimmy was proud to say so.

"Yes, it's clear that.. Everything that happens is rich movie scenario... I never dreamed of going to college again.. My family's situation is better... And I'm with an established and mysterious man like you.... "

We were silent for a moment, with no strings attached we stayed together. Live and do the things worthy of her husband - wife. Is that natural.?

"So, what do you want cath?" Jimmy opened.

"If I were a woman in general at my age now. Surely I want us to date cake, marry cake.. Not living together without a clear bond...."

"So you want us to get married? Are you ready to know who I am? Ready for all the risks?" Jimmy challenged back.

"Engga.... I'm afraid of marriage, will all the problems be solved if there is a wedding? Economic problems, my future, responsibility for the future in front of my eyes, said Jimmy... " Answer.

"Hm.... The Cathrine.... Women at that age.. Definitely crave marriage, happy life with a man who loves and loves each other... But you don't know what it's hard to find money.. How to deal with family. How to survive with someone in your life.... " Jimmy answered.

"Jimmy, let's date... Let me ask people, I can say you're my girlfriend... " I'm asking Jimmy to affirm this relationship.

"okay.. No problem, I often recognize you as my wife.." Jimmy gave me a clue.

"I hope one day I can be your wife.. To be the best for our future.... "

Jimmy smiled at me, "so we're talking there - here's the point, you shot me?" He's teasing me again.

"Damn.. You ask again, yes! Consider it! You, this is not gonna shoot me first... Kesel will be waiting for you. Hunt down another guy...! where are you not saying yuk we're dating.cuman says consider us dating..." I'm pissed Jimmy's teasing me all the time.

"There's another man, I guarantee he won't be able to have you.... I guarantee that... " Jimmy's proud.

In Jimmy's heart he laughed. This innocent woman is so cute and innocent. He was not even aware of their true status.

The journey that feels good.for a long time they do not talk like that. the busyness and distance that Jimmy makes sometimes make them stiff with each other.

soon they arrived at the Mall. Valet petrified Jimmy to park the car. they went down and went inside.

Jimmy recalled in this mall he first talked to and ate Cathrine . Even with Jessy's help, those memories are always in Jimmy's mind.

"You don't want to, the first time we talked about this was at a table in Teagarden.." I said, leaning my head against Jimmy's arm.

And the man just nodded. Jimmy tried to stay cool and jaim in front of Cathrine.

they get there, and Stacy and Yofie are here first. Jimmy pulled Cathrine inside.

then they sat facing each other.

"afternoon, sorry we were late.it was a little jammed. "I opened the conversation.
