AMETHYST: Drucless Lover
AKD - 2

I slowly opened my eyes. My irises moved to spread the gaze around the room. I'm looking for someone who might be hiding.

I sat up and touched my lips.

That cold hand, that kiss. Feels real. I'm not dreaming.

I'm sure that last night was someone. Maybe he went in through the balcony and broke into my room.

But why did he go to my room?

I'm so scared now.

Maybe he's a thief? If so, something is missing. It seems that everything in my room is still in its original place.

Forget it, Vita. What matters is that you're okay. Nothing bad happened to you.

I also had a good day on this sunny Saturday morning. As I walked down the stairs, the doorbell rang.

As always, there will be a delivery person for breakfast every morning. With a swift step, I headed towards the main door.

After getting my order from the food deliveryman, I immediately invited omma to breakfast.

"Omma want to go for a walk? I will accompany you," I said.

"Can."

Finished breakfast, I pushed the omma wheelchair and took a walk around the complex.

"This morning it was very fresh" said Omma.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Hi, Vita." I looked up when I heard the voice of someone calling my name.

The man wearing the black singlet and boxer shorts smiled at me. I smiled at him too.

Ah, how handsome.

He's Ashlan, my schoolmate. Even though we were different classes, we knew each other quite well. It was because his house was not far from the house of omma.

Ashlan greeted the omma politely, "Hello, Grandma."

"Who are you?" Ask omma with ketus.

I saw Ashlan's expression did not show any surprise at the omma's attitude. But I still feel awkward.

I rubbed omma's shoulder so as not to get angry. "Omma, Ashlan is my friend."

"Oh." Only two letters are spoken by Omma.

I just smiled as I rubbed my arm and asked Ashlan, "You're running in the morning?"

"Yes, I just wanted to go home and see you with grandma here" she replied.

Omma patted my hand that was on her shoulder. "Vita, let's go home. Omma forgot not to give Illis fertilizer."

Illis referred to by omma is his favorite orange amaryllis flower. He loved the flowers and took good care of them.

Ashlan said, "Ah? So rushed."

"See you," I said.

Ashlan smiled as she waved her hand in my footsteps. "See you."

We also returned home. I brought a medium-sized pot containing a small amaryllis flower. Omma's hand reached him.

I watched the omma spray the flowers. Not having the heart to look at it for too long, I decided to turn my eyes the other way.

"Your father called tonight."

Hearing omma's words, I was shocked and immediately looked back at her.

"Tomorrow he'll come here and bring you a new car."

Did ya?

I miss papa so much. If tomorrow's really coming, I'm happy.

"Although his head is as hard as a rock, he still loves you, Vita."

Yeah, I know. Papa was just a little busy and watching me in the distance.

In the afternoon, I enjoy hot chocolate while watching TV in the family room.

Suddenly my phone rang indicating a notification coming in. After checking, it turns out there was a chat from someone. It turned out that that person was Ashlan.

How does he know my number?

I forgot about the TV, too, because of the fun of talking to Ashlan in a conversation balloon.

He said he liked me a long time ago. But he can only say it now.

I'm so happy.

Is this a sign that my retirement is coming to an end?

Is he still busy at the office?

I saw omma sleeping. Suddenly the doorbell rang. Looking at my watch that showed at 10 am, I was astonished. Is that maybe a food delivery guy? This is not lunch time.

Or maybe it was a guest.

I also went to the front door. When I opened the door, I was surprised to see a white cat in front.

Who left it there?

"Hi, sweet cat." I carry her.

"Have you just knocked on the door?" I asked silly.

The cat meowed.

I checked my phone which read. There was a message from Ashlan.

Ashls

I know, you're lonely at home. It just so happened that my mom bought two cats yesterday. After remembering you, I think you need one of my cat. Hope this cat can be your best friend.

Oh yeah, give him a good name, yeah.

I smiled when I read it.

"What name suits you?" I rubbed the cat's head.

Twisy.

The name just popped into my head. From now on her name is Twisy.

The next day, I was getting ready to meet papa, as well as omma.

Two cars entered the house. The car behind looks shiny and nice. It looks like it's new.

Two tall and large men came out of the steering wheel of each car. They are papa's confidants. The two of them came up to me and omma and bowed respectfully.

"Mrs are great, sir sent this car to Miss."

I asked, "Where is Papa? Not coming with you here?"

The two men looked at each other and shook their heads.

I'm so sad. Why has papa never had the slightest time to meet me since parting ways with mama?

Likewise with my mother who never contacted me at all after divorce with papa.

Everyone is busy with their own business.

Omma rubbed my hand that was on her shoulder. "Darling, omma's gonna call your dad."

I hugged omma. "No need, Omma. Papa must be busy with his work."

"You two can go." After omma said that, they both gave me the keys to the new car and left.

Omma called Papa. "Hey, the son of a bitch."

I was sad so I wanted to laugh when I heard omma's annoyance when I called papa.

"What's up, Mom? Mom's car has arrived, right? Devitaa likes it, right?" I heard papa's voice from across there.

Omma immediately gave a speech to my beloved papa, "Damn you. You sent that car without you. Why didn't you come here to see me and your daughter? Your mother misses you, especially Vita. He was so happy when I said you were coming. Even though I couldn't see his face, I'm sure, now he's sad."

"I was coming, but the client came ahead of schedule. I can do what."

"Talk to your daughter yourself." Omma reached for my lot. I immediately took the phone out of his hand.

"Devita? Darling?"

"Hem."

"Don't be angry, beautiful. Papa will come at another time. Now what does Devitaa want? Papa will buy."

"I just want papa and mama."

I know, my words are impossible. They can't meet me together. Especially together as before.

Before hearing the reply from papa, I heard the voice of his secretary who called and said, if the client has come.

"Later Papa will call you again. Dear father Devitaa, see you."

"He ended the call first?" Asked omma with an annoyed expression.

I let out a heavy sigh while melting my head into the panguan omma.

"He did have a head like a rock. You know, I wouldn't choose a beach for your honeymoon with your op first" ketus omma.

Again, I could not help but laugh at my omma.
