*Twenty-five years ago.
" Kristeen." called a woman slowly to her friend who was busy cleaning the empty table, after several people sat there and then left.
" Kristeen. "call her a little harder.
The name owner's forehead flinched, as he continued to move to clean the table and put some glasses and dishes on the tray, for him to take back to the kitchen, "what's going on Emma ? , Why are you so noisy "he asked as he passed by his co-worker.
The coffee-haired woman followed Kristeen into the kitchen, "I saw the man at the end of the room watching you Kristeen" she told me.
" Then ? " ask Kristeen unconcerned, as she continues to pass to visitors who have just entered the cafe where she works.
" Good afternoon sir, Miss "sweep smile sweetly, putting the dish in front of the two, "special day. We have a gift for a pair of people who came today "he said.
" really ? " the woman who sits on her left side.
" Hemmm.., we'll give you warm chocolate as dessert" he said with lips that kept smiling sweetly.
" What a sweet gift" said the smiling male visitor, pointing to the menu he was about to order.
Kristeen took a note and pen in her pocket, then recorded all the orders.
" Your dishes are coming soon, and happy Valentine's Day" he told visitors with a sweet smile that did not end from his lips.
He walked quickly to the small hallway on the side of the kitchen and attached a note containing the order of visitors. Then go back again to the front and stand sweetly on the side of the cashier table.
" Sstttttt" exclaimed Emma who sat on the cashier's desk chair.
" Hey Kristeen, did you overhear me on purpose ? "
" I'm tired Emma. Don't bother me "say a little.
" Who wants to bother you. I'd like to say that the man at the end of the room doesn't stop looking at you "
" Then ? " the answer doesn't matter.
" Look at him for a second. He's a handsome kristeen" said Emma softly.
Kristeen was silent. However, his brown eyes slowly began to steal a glance at the person his co-worker was referring to.
For a moment his eyes were fixed. Then he quickly turned his gaze away as his eyes met the dark blue eyes of the man Emma was referring to.
His heart was beating erratically. Until making his white cheeks slightly blushed.
" He's very handsome, isn't he ? " slamorous Emma. Chris did not answer.
The bell marker of the dish is ready to sound. Kristeen quickly returned to the kitchen hallway. Put the food on a tray, then drive it to the order table.
and during that time he did not dare to lift his face for fear of looking back at the visitors at the end of the room.
" Good to enjoy the dish "he said softly, then returned after finishing putting all the dishes.
Just now he finished putting the tray. Suddenly Emma called out her name.
" Is there anything else Emma ? " he asked ketus and became upset because the body was so tired.
" The visitor called out ", Emma said, pointing to the man at the end of the room.
" Quickly approach him. Before he wrote anything in the complaint box "he said again.
Kristeen took a breath. Before slowly his feet moved towards the table meant by Emma.
" Can I help Tuna ? " he asked without daring to look at the man. He continued to lower his gaze with a forehead that began to frown a little, because he was confused there was no answer to his question.
" Sir.. ? " repeat slowly.
" It's rude if you don't look at your opponent" said the man suddenly in a heavy voice and sounded a little deep.
Kris quickly straightened his gaze, "I'm sorry sir "he said with regret.
Deg
His heart was revived when his brown eyes met again in the dark blue eyes before him, "the perfect man "the thrill of being deep.
Tight eyelashes with eyebrows that are interlocked make the eyes look very perfect. Now his gaze spread to life sharp, neatly arranged whiskers and thin lips easy red with a shape that is no less perfect. And it's getting beautified with fine feathers that are also neatly arranged in the jaw he said.
" Kristeen "call the man, making him flinch and managed to break his gaze.
" Ma.ma I'm sorry sir "he said so sorry. And thought that the man was looking at him who stared unblinkingly.
Kristeen's forehead flinched again and in confusion she returned to her place.
" What did he say ? " ask Emma curiously.
" I don't know. After saying my name he immediately asked me to come back "he said explaining with a confused face, "I was also confused from where he knew my name.
Emma immediately chuckled, "fool, of course she knew because reading your name here "he cried laughing while pointing to the name tag pinned on her left chest.
And he laughed with his stupidity, "I've completely lost my mind" he said, smiling wryly.
Emma saw that the man at the end of the room had left by leaving some banknotes there.
" Kristeen he's gone" he said. Then walked quickly to the man's table.
" God" cried Emma suddenly. Kristeen who just wanted to sit down canceled her intention because of the little scream of the woman, "Kristeen come here "he cried again.
" Can't you just bring the old cup "reply helpless because the body is already very, very tired by work. How not before coming to the cafe where he worked he had to finish all his homework while taking care of his little daughter. Which he must now leave behind to connect their lives every day.
" It's not so!, hurry up here Kriss. You should see this "excited Emma impatiently.
Kristeen's tired body slowly moved towards her, "what's up ? " he asked a little annoyed.
" Look "point Emma on the paper left between the sheets of money.
" Happy Valentine's Day Kristeen" wrote in the paper. Then following the writing made smaller, "Take the change for you and buy a lip-splitter. You'll be more beautiful with blushing lips. And tomorrow I will return "he wrote again.
Emma cried out in excitement after reading the contents in the paper. Then he quickly took the money leaflet on the table and counted it, "Five hundred dollars" he cried with enlarged eyes.
" The coffee he ordered was only seventeen dollars. Means the rest. "he said while thinking.
" Four hundred and eighty-three dollars Emma" Kristeen continued.
" That's it. I can no longer count "he said in a daze. He took a fifty dollar bill and gave all the rest to Kristeen, "this is your money and wait for the rest from here "he exclaimed as he walked back to the cashier's table.
Kristeen was still silent staring at the money sheet in her hand.
" Kris clean the table first. Only if you come back to pensively "cried Emma laughed.
Kris had put the dirty rake from the end table into the kitchen sink. And quickly he went back to the cashier's desk to where Emma worked.
" Emma's money tips this very much "she said in a daze while taking the banknote out of her pocket, "that's your recovery today. Take it "
" And here's the rest" Emma continued, giving back the fifty-dollar bill she had taken.
" Take it for you Emma" he said, pushing the money back from his co-worker's hand, "this isn't your money ".
" And now I give it to you. You can use it to buy dinner and fare for you to come home to "pinta Kristeen with a smile. Then he looked at the wall clock that showed at eight o'clock at night, "gosh I'm late coming home "he shouted as he hurriedly opened the apron attached to his body, "I came home Emma " rushed in.
" It's the rest of your money" cried Emma.
" I told you it was for you "reply.
" Thank you then "said Emma so gladly.
Soon Kris returned in regular clothes. White shirt and blue jeans are easy, and the bag stuck on the left shoulder, "I went home Emma. My daughter must have been waiting for me "her fate again.
" Yes be careful. And don't forget to buy Kristeen's lip-splitting "cried Emma laughed.
Kristeen still had a chance to tickle towards him before reaching the door of the cafe.
" Greetings to your beautiful daughter "cried Emma again.
Kris nodded while waving his hand. Then he disappeared from behind the door.
