The ice cristal in Lula's glass had melted away. Now leaves a cold when enjoyed. Fragrance from tea is not as close as when just served. Lula smiled ironically, ignoring the taste of the fresh tea that had just been gulped.
The huft!
Lula let out a long sigh, while dropping her back on the back of the chair. The restaurant inside the mall felt so crowded, full, crowded, more complete with puffs of cigarette smoke everywhere. Lula hates waiting, especially without word from the promise-maker.
"Am I just too excited." Lula muttered softly, then pulled out her phone from inside the bag. Intentionally, reread the message that Elkan had sent.
He sat there for an hour waiting. Occasionally Lula turned her gaze towards the afternoon scene. Unfortunately, the orange sky out there did not attract his attention at all.
Don't know why? He chose to glance in a three-hour direction. A man was sitting busy with his cell phone. Every now and then their eyes met, and the man's smile rose so beautifully. And Lula turned away, pretending not to respond.
Though he knew his heart was about to jump from its place, confused as to how to respond to that smile. There was a sense of annoyance as well as fear if their views met. Fear of the man's hospitality is just a charade.
Feeling tired, Lula decides to contact Elkan. Just the first trial, Lula's call was answered directly by the provider operator. Elkan's number is now inactive. He had no idea what had happened to Elkan, but he was very upset that the man had not kept his promise.
"It looks like Elkan won't come," he muttered wanting to give up, but he was at a loss as to what reason would be conveyed to Frans. Fearing, if her lips are wrongly talking her husband will be angry and look for the whereabouts of Elkan. You know, the man's own rude attitude.
Elkan, please! Come, the man's face there is much more sinister when he realizes you're not coming. Inner Lula, upon noticing Frans' gaze.
Lula tried to ignore, still wanting to wait for the arrival of Elkan. If the man had truly fallen in love with her, it would definitely not have ignored him like this.
“Still waiting?”
Frans's voice made Lula flinch, she was shocked because the man suddenly stood beside her. “Ya.” Lula still answered briefly. In fact, from earlier he ignored Frans's question about his attitude that continues to be silent.
“What if we go for a walk first?!” tawar Frans's.
“Now!” Lula shook her head, confirming her answer.
“Seriously? Daddy can buy’in whatever you want? Especially for today! consider it a reward because you have worked well.”
“But I don't want anything, and don't intend to go for a walk with a man older than me!”
Frans was already impatient, hearing Lula's exact words but also piercing her chest. Though he has tried to adjust the appearance, but still said OLD. Who else accepts it?!
Frans took a seat beside Lula, cupping the girl's face, with both of her sturdy hands, forcing Luka to focus on looking at her. “Why does gini keep going anyway? Daddy knows Daddy's wrong. By dong, La!” persuade Frans, trying to dive into Lula's wishes through the look of his eyes. "How does it want to?"
Lula did not answer. She tried to return her husband's gaze. It was obvious that the man was frustrated, but because of what? Was he too much to silence that man?!
“Say the same Daddy what do you want?” reset Frans.
Lula shakes. “Lula don't want anything?” looking down again, avoiding Frans's sight.
Frans didn't lose his mind, he lifted Lula's chin. “You're mad at Daddy?”
Lula shook her head again.
“Then why?!”
“Ta—takut.” Lula turned her gaze behind Frans' body, a pair of humans eating together there.
“Fear?” Frans suddenly bites Lula's arm, strong enough to make Lula surprised by her behavior. “What hurts? Why be afraid! Daddy won't hurt you,” Frans asked after keeping his canine teeth away from Lula's arm.
Lula rubbed the bite marks for a moment, quite painful, I don't know what the man meant. “Hurt not just by action, Dad! But fingers and lips, if not set can also make people hurt.”
Frans who originally wanted to defend himself, suddenly silenced. He knew his mistake, and he wanted Lula to forget it. “Okay, Daddy apologize!” frans said to take Lula's hand off. “Daddy apologize to you.” Frans tried to humble himself.
Lula threw away her face. Suddenly he was so crybaby, even tears had threatened to go freefall. Lula wanted to scream, cry, but was embarrassed because of this in a public place.
“Kok even cry?!” frans said it was almost frustrating to see Lula's current attitude. He pulled some tissue and helped dry Lula's tears. “What makes you sad, dear?! cup-cup!” Frans hugged Lula, trying to calm her down.
Long enough in that position. They do not realize if it has become the center of attention of restaurant visitors.
After the cry subsided Lula looked up at her husband. “What did Daddy really apologize for?”
“Ya.”
“What tomorrow Daddy won't repeat it again?”
“Ya.” Frans answered with a nod of his head.
“Lula will forget that, but daddy has to promise not to be rude again Lula. Dad never yelled at Lula. Dad always appreciated everything Lula gave him, even if what Lula gave him meant nothing to him. Not to distinguish between Daddy and Dad. But the sounds of snapping, screaming, angry faces, it was too new for Lula. Except—
Lula did not want to continue with her words, as this concerned Priscilla and her relationship with the man. He will keep it to himself. No one knew if Priscilla had ever cursed her, they only knew that she had locked her in one of the cages.
Frans who heard that felt pity, he got tighter and closer to Lula's body. “Daddy promises will not repeat. Don't cry anymore! don't show this ugly face of yours to Daddy! Stay a cheerful Lula.”
Lula nodded, her cries slowly fading, and she immediately distanced herself from Frans when she realized they were in a public place. Too late, even many people who have taken pictures of the two of them.
“Order food, we better eat here all.”
“Looks like my lover didn't come!” lula said, courageously confessing. There's no way Elkan will be present.
“Good, that means we can date.”
“What?” Lula was a little surprised by the man's remark, a date?
“Ah, I mean Daddy, we can eat together, then take a walk wherever you want.” Frans looked at his sect. Wonderful, why is it wrong to behave like this?! batin Frans, while loosening the buttons of his denim jacket sleeve. This is Lula, YOUR SON! as if back to remind.
“Why Daddy doesn't go the same way as the would-be actor, this is it, weekend?”
Both of Frans' eyebrows raised, not understanding the direction of Lula's conversation. "Actors' candidate?"
“Do not pretend not to understand. Two people in a closed room, why not share sweat and comfort*?!” lula, try to explain.
Frans was curled up, he wanted to ease his laughter first before responding to his wife's words. “Lula .. We have been home for almost a month, we also always have the opportunity to do it, but Daddy does not admit anything to you.”
“That's because Daddy has an appointment with me! Same mother Silvya not yet.”
“So, you judge us both about that rich guy?”
“Ya.” Lula answered quickly.
“Terden, deh!”
“Well, um yes!”
“Ya, let's just say so.” Frans relented, not wanting to argue anymore.
“Nyebelin. Don't fornicate at home. Once again I saw Silvya's mother enter the private realm. I'm viral on you two!” lula's courage has returned, stirring as if the anger that was yesterday held, sliding just like that.
"Good dong! share the results later, if Daddy is on tv!" frans' response made Lula even more upset. He kept silent, checking his phone. However, again he did not find any news from Elkan.
“You no walk. If you don't want to, we better find a more comfortable place. Park, hotel, eat at the rooftop while seeing the beauty of the city seems like fun.”
Lula seemed to weigh which path to choose. Before finally deciding to obey Frans. Give the man his next goal.
