The White Heart Jasmine

Chapter 72 - Forgive Me, El

During Elvan's return trip many stories and laughs. Her chest is ploongg... His heart was relieved... Farel who sat in the bonfire followed happily. Her brother is back. Lots of smiles and cheerful.

It's 7 p.m., the Edgar family is back at his residence. Elvan was still talking to Hasan on the porch.

"Hasan, I don't know how to thank you. You are my life-saver. I've almost lost hope, love, and the future. Thank you very much, buddy." Elvan hugged Hasan.

"It's all a coincidence, El. I also did not expect that trivial things had a big impact on your life. Meet when you're drunk, then almost hit the bike. Aahs... The director of human life is always full of surprises." Hasan returned Elvan's embrace with a happy smile.

"I'm also relieved, finally the wrong thought about you was answered. Seriously, since seeing you that night still pops into my brain sometimes, what's wrong with Elvan? Why can it be a drunkard, hee.." continued Hasan.

Elvan laughed.

"German..." Tirta called for Elvan.

Elvan turned his head and walked towards his papa. Tirta opened both hands, Elvan came forward and received his papa's embrace. "I'm sorry, Papa, son. Pardon... Papa won't listen to you. Papa should know who Elvan is. Because you're Papa's son. Forgive Papa."

"Pa. It's all done." Elvan smiles.

"My sister this one can most make people a heart spot, huh..." Azka appears and shuffles Elvan's hair.

"Aihhh." said Elvan. "Son Azka still owes me an apology."

"What?" ask Azka.

"Hmmm..." Elvan pointed at his cheek. "It hurts a lot, you know, too" said Elvan.

"Ouch... My dear sister, forgive. ahh..." Azka hugged Elvan.

"What?" Erika appearing. "You hit Elvan? Tega, yeah..." Erika changes Azka's forehead until she screams in shock.

"Once, let's eat. Everyone must be hungry" asked Erika.

"Son Hasan, come with me. As a sign of our gratitude," Tirta asked.

"Well, Om," said Hasan.

With a happy smile they started to have dinner together. Do not forget to precede prayer as gratitude for all that has been passed.

At 6 am, Elvan was already on the motorcycle to Melati's house. His face was fresh, his smile bright. He was wearing a sports and training shirt. He wants to take Melati for a morning walk. Arriving at the family home Adinata Elvan greeted Damar who was engrossed in playing ball in front of the house with Teak.

"Morning.." said Elvan.

"Hi, Brother Elvan," replied Teak. "Come, play ball." said Jati with sparkling eyes.

"Come, who's afraid?" elvan. Finally the three of them played together. There were shouts, cheers, and simple laughter.

Then he showed up at the door, Melati's father. Elvan handed the ball to Jati and approached Gilang.

"Of..." Elvan greeted Gilang and kissed the back of his hand.

"How are you, Elvan?" said Gilang. That sweet smile appeared for Elvan.

"Very good, Om," said Elvan with a smile.

"Your father called Om last night" Gilang said. "I was confused as to what to say. Come in, Melati is inside. I used to help his mom make breakfast."

"Eh, can't I take a walk, Om?" Ask Elvan.

"certain. Om know laa.. You must miss each other, hee..." Gilang chuckles.

"Hee. yeah..." Elvan is salting. He went inside and continued into the dining room. Melati is arranging plates and glasses. Lily prepared the food. While Sekar is still cleaning up used cooking garbage.

"May I help you?" ask Elvan.

Jasmine stopped his hand. He looked at Elvan. The clench on his chest instantly worked faster. His eyes began to collect water points in his pelvis. She wanted to hug her lover.

"Sister Elvan!" Lily said hello. Cheerful as always.

"Elvan. come to breakfast, yeah..." Sekar also welcomed him cheerfully.

"Continue, Mum. It's not breakfast." Elvan smiles.

"Ready, beautiful mother." Lily answered and went ahead to call Gilang, Damar and Jati.

Elvan approaches Melati. "Hey..." Elvan smiles.

Melati rubbed her eyes. "Haiy..." Melati was afraid she was crying. Shame on her mother. But in his heart overflowed a deep longing.

A few minutes later the breakfast began. While eating, Damar and Lily began, the reporter gave a lot of questions about what happened yesterday when Elvan escaped.

"Well, his intention was to run away and instead met the god of help, brother," said Damar.

"That's the miracle I'm waiting for. Just the way I didn't expect." Elvan chimed in while cutting tofu and stuffing it in his mouth.

"Yes, there is always a way God can help His people. Just so we're sure" said Gilang.

"Unfortunately Melati's not sure about me, Om." Elvan glanced at Melati.

"What, the hell..." Jasmine blushed. There was a sense of guilt springing up in Melati's heart as Elvan said that.

"Important that all came back well. Just be grateful for what happened" said Sekar.

Is correct. Only thanksgiving could be said after experiencing such a great shock and coming apart all of a sudden.

After breakfast, Elvan invited Melati to the Sunday Morning Market in the area around Gajayana Stadium and Jalan Ijen. Some say Car Free Day. There are many hawker sellers, various types. There are also those who sell cheap clothes, accessories, souvenirs and more. There are a lot of visitors. Because people are on school and work holidays, they can enjoy the day off with family. You can also enter the stadium to exercise.

They walked around looking around. Then Elvan bought traditional snacks onde-onde and lemper, as well as drink iced oranges. Elvan invites Melati into the stadium, sitting in a quiet stands and enjoying the snacks.

"El, I'm sorry" said Melati.

Elvan looked at Melati. She wrapped her arms from behind hugging Melati. Melati cupped her face in Elvan's chest. She was crying there. Releasing the guilt that was still lingering in his heart. Elvan let her boyfriend cry. Sometimes he kisses the top of Melati's head.

After being satisfied crying Melati lifted her face and cleaned it with a tissue. He was still embarrassed looking into Elvan's eyes.

"Crying off?" asked Elvan gently.

"I'm sorry, El," said Melati. "I should have believed you. You said that once. Whatever happens, you have to keep believing. This time I failed."

"It's ok." Elvan holds Melati's chin. His face now turned to Elvan. "It's all done."

"I have to say, let my heart be relieved" said Melati.

"Alright.." said Elvan.

"I believe you love me. I believe you just want to be with me. Which I still doubt, because you're drunk. And when drunk anything can happen, even if you don't remember, but..."

"Fara was aware and something happened according to him," continued Elvan.

Melati. "And as I thought, Fara had already lost her most precious treasure as a woman, she must have been hurt. She's such a poor girl... I can't let myself be happy while she's ignored just because she's not loved" Melati said.

"You're too good, Mel. You think of others, until you forget you deserve to fight for your happiness" Elvan said. He pulled Melati's face to a nearby place Melati's nose into her nose.

Melati was so nervous. Elvan is still in the same position. Then he kissed Melati's forehead.

"Oh, can't be more. Then ask for weird." Elvan smiles. He moved his hand that was holding both of Melati's shoulders and then grasped the girl's fingers.

"Hey..." Melati is smiling. Melati turned her gaze to the vast field. It was seen a group of teenagers in soccer uniforms entering the field. Looks like they're going to practice.

"Do you know why I ran away?" said Elvan. Melati. "Because my heart is for you. Marry once until the end of life. If I agree to an engagement with Fara, it means I promise to marry her. And I can't possibly deny it. I can't do it. Marriage for the wrong reasons. Living with people I don't love. Precisely what will hurt not only me, but also Fara," explained Elvan.

Jasmine listening. He understood what Elvan said.

"If I stand at the altar, and I make a promise, it must be done with a conscious, committed, and full love for my companion. And I want it to be you, "he continued. Elvan tidied the bangs on Melati's forehead.

Melati smile. "Yes. I know," said Melati. Elvan smiles.

"I love you." said Melati slowly.

"Tell me again." said Elvan. Melati. Still awkward also talk love, even though uda long courtship, yes... Jasmine... Jasmine...
