This Taste
are we going to meet again?
On the way home there was not much they talked about. Nat looked out of the car. A lot of vehicles. Makes the atmosphere of the city night festive. Some hawkers still survive peddling merchandise, the rigors of life force them to stay on the streets until night. Maybe his wife's son is waiting at home, expecting him to bring home a few thousand dollars to connect their lives. In contrast to the lives of the rich. They easily get millions of dollars, and they easily spend it with things that sometimes make no sense. Nat think he's in what position? is it the poor or the rich? Nat took a deep breath. Ryan noticed.
" it seems I've seen you, did we ever collide in front of the minimarket that day?" ask Ryan. Remembering the memories of that day.
"Ah.. Ja. It's me." replied Nat with a smile. In his heart he was happy because Ryan remembered it.
"Oh, is this yours?" Ryan thrust out a heart-shaped pendant. Nat immediately recognized his. Her mother's pendant. And he only realized at that time that the locket was gone. Nat receives the locket, unwittingly shedding tears. He felt guilty if the pendant was completely gone. These few days he was busy with Rey so he paid less attention to anything else. Even this very important item he had forgotten. Rey stole his life.
"The locket must mean a lot, is it from your girlfriend?" ryan asked after seeing Nat's reaction.
"It's from mom, before she died, mom gave me this, thanks for giving it back." Nat clasped the locket tightly, then kept it again in his bag.
"you'd better put on that locket so if it falls again you know" Ryan said. Nat nodded.
"Your mom must be so happy to see her son so devoted" Ryan said. Nat just smiled bitterly. 'Is it true that mom is happy, or is she getting sad and disappointed with my life, with what Nael and I experienced was she happy there? Ma I want to see you' Nat said inwardly. Nat misses his mother very much.
"I got off in front of ya" Nat said as he pointed towards his house.
Ryan's car pulled over in front of Nat's house.
"It's late at night you'd better go straight into the house" Ryan said.
"Yes.. Thanks Ryan. For today."
"Yes... Are we going to meet again?" ask Ryan. Nat confused to answer what.
"Good night Ryan, thank you" Nat couldn't answer Ryan's question. Will they meet again? If there's Rey, maybe Nat can meet another guy. Nat really wants to see Ryan again. Although it's only been a few hours together but Nat feels safe, his life is back there is hope.
On the way home after delivering Nat, Ryan always thought of Nat. He felt that there was something else about the girl he had just met. During this time many girls were close to him but he felt Nat was a different girl. From the moment he first met in front of the minimarket, when the girl arrived2 ran after receiving a call.
Sitting alone in the cafe. Until something bothered him, all was noticed by Ryan.
"Why do I feel there's something in Nat... He didn't even answer when I asked if I could see each other again, but there were a lot of girls who were always looking for me." There were a lot of questions in Ryan's mind.
