Wife Custody (Second Love)

First Date (2)

Flashback Keanu and Julie

Julie POV

Now I was sitting in the passenger seat, next to Mas Keanu who was driving this car. The car is still the same as the other day. Just as clean, just as neat, and just as fragrant.

Like owners. Uh.

What the hell am I?

I smiled to myself.

"Why, Jul? Is something funny?"

Oh, Mama.. He saw my smile.

"Eh, eng-don't, Mas. Just a smile," I replied.

"What's the curtain," Mas Keanu replied as he turned the steering wheel.

Lho? This is Mas Keanu's home complex. Why turn here?

"Where are we going, Mas?"

"Udah, you don't have to think anything. Leave everything to me" he replied with a smile.

Shortly after, we stopped in front of a beautiful house. Although it looks modern, there is a feel of Java which is quite strong. A gazebo with a typical Javanese pyramid roof, a sturdy teak door decorated with Javanese carvings as well, and a large Javanese accent writing on it, which I do not understand how to read it at all, let alone its meaning.

"Yuk, get down," Mas Keanu asked as he gestured.

In my heart, I felt, I was just invited down, not opened the door, like in the romantic movies that I often watch. But soon I cut my heart out, and I'm in again, please Jul, realistic dong. It is also not that marriage is very.

Heh, marriage?

I started to digress again. Maybe this is the effect of breakfast is mostly micin. Abis, that instant noodle really favors no two.

I opened the car door and got down, then stepped following Mas Keanu who walked up to the teak door.

Mas Keanu opened the door, and said his greetings quite loudly while stepping in. I stood in front of the door, still on the porch, confused. What am I supposed to do? I wanted to come in, but it was impolite. Just stand here, waiting to be told to come in.

I heard Mas Keanu's greeting from inside the house, probably his mother's voice. Then I heard the sound of steps approaching me. Heart's pounding. Duh, how should I?

"Lho, how are you still here, Jul? Come, in!"

It turned out that Mas Keanu realized I didn't go straight into the house with him.

I nodded in embarrassment, then stepped my feet slowly, as if afraid of stepping on or nudging something wrong.

A comfortable and comfortable home. Very clever residents in choosing and arranging the interior. Not many luxury objects, simple, but meaningful and create an elegant impression.

I looked at some of the photos on display on top of a white buffet. There is a photo of Mas Keanu at graduation, also there is himself with his parents. Mas Keanu's only child, it seems. I can't find any pictures of other children among these photos.

"Hello, Julie. Assalamualaikum.."

I looked towards the voice of the woman who greeted me. I found a middle-aged woman figure that looked fresh and motherly once there, standing next to Mas Keanu.

"Wa-waalaikumussalam. Hello, Auntie," I replied as I reached for her hand, and I went over and kissed the back of the hand.

"Call Mom, let's be like Keanu. Yuk, come to the back. Come on, Le, Julie was invited to see you."

Whats?

I'm not ready!

Meeting his mother Mas Keanu alone was unimaginable before by me. Especially father. How bad are you? Where I am a girl, even playing into a man's house like this. Not very polite...

Uh, but the one who suddenly came here was Mas Keanu. So who's not polite dong?

Slowly I set my foot back to follow Mas Keanu and his mother. Um, Mom, I mean.

"This is what Julie's name is? Hello, Julie. Sorry, but my hands got chicken. Can't shake first," he said kindly.

I nodded and smiled. "Yes, Om, uh, sir," I said as I glanced at Mas Keanu who was looking at me.

"Is this not his acquaintance? Julie I brought you first, Audience. Have fun" Mas Keanu told Father and Mother.

Mother pinched Mas Keanu's waist, "who should have fun it's you're the same as Julie. Mommy mah every day having fun continues."

I saw them sneering at each other, softening up casually. Glad to be in their midst. I have a positive aura. So my spirit too!

"Yeah, Jul. Follow me. Bye, Sir, Mom. Later, call us yes."

Mother gave her thumbs up towards Mas Keanu. "Kalo Keanu fad you, dijiwit wae yo, Nduk. The manager can also."

I can only grin. Who am I, how dare to pinch and hold his son This handsome mother, my mind.

Mas Keanu pulled my hand, taking me up the stairs to the 2nd floor of this house.

Oh, there's another staircase, heading for the 3rd floor, or the roof?

I can't believe that on the top floor of this house there is a garden! It's exquisite. There are many fruit and flower plants here. My guess is, this must be Mom's advice.

"Here is where I usually contemplate and channel the hobby of farming, Jul," explained Mas Keanu while showing some plants. Also a medium-sized sofa that protected a small canopy on it.

"So, isn't Mom taking care of this plant?" many wonder.

"Hehehe Mother's plant below. The one over this is my colony," he replied as he invited me to sit on the sofa.

Padded. Also convenient. That was my impression when I sat down with Mas Keanu here. Although the sun began to rise, it remained cool in taste, as it sheltered the roof of the canopy with grapes running down its side, also thanks to the presence of plants around it.

"Which one do you like best?" ask Mas Keanu.

I watch the plants. Then my eyes were fixed on one of the plants. Put my index finger in there.

"Oh, that. Water guava. Soon again out the flowers, if you can survive will be fruit you know."

I'm nodding. I like water guava. When I was a child, I often climbed the tree in front of the house in Jogja Eyang. Ah, water guava, I'm nostalgic.

"Mas, on the 2nd floor there were many books. Those are all Mas Keanu's books?"

Indeed, when we headed here, we passed the middle room on the 2nd floor. There is a TV, a sofa, a set of computers and musical instruments, then a bookshelf along the wall. The book has a lot. I didn't get to see the details, so I just took a quick look.

"Yes mix. The books of the three of us. It just so happens that our reading tastes are similar. You wanna see?"

I'm nodding. I'm very happy to see a book. I really like to read. All my friends called me a super nerd.

We went back down to the 2nd floor. Mas Keanu explained each part of the bookcase. His books are arranged according to genre.

"I also like Lima Sekawan. This is my reading from SD!"

"Hehehe our tastes are also the same as it turns out. If you like this, don't you?" asked Mas Keanu while pointing out a book.

"Lupus? Bungeeet likes!"

My eyes sparkle because of it. I can't believe we have much in common. From food to favorite books.

"You select a few books to bring to the top. I got down first grabbing drinks and snacks. If you are done first, you can go up first as well. Just relax, Jul. Take it like your own home. Don't sell it."

I chuckled little to hear it. Then I gave a thumbs up sign in agreement.

Sitting alone in the garden on the roof of his house. Read your favorite books while snacking. Is this our first date?

Uh, is this a date?

But I've wanted a date like this for a long time. And just materialized at this time.

I smile. It's really nice to feel.
