A Handful of Love for You
62. Other Women
Atep POV
“What's up, Man?”
“There is a problem in the cafe, Kang?” answer Firman, the manager who takes care of daily operations in the cafe.
“This is a woman coming madly to meet the owner of cafe.”
“Say that the one with the cafe is going out of town.”
“I told you, Kang. But the guy doesn't believe. He's bringing people in, like thugs. There are four people. I'm afraid they'll scramble cafe.”
“Ya already, I instantly slide. You just told me I was on the road.”
I drove the bike with the maximum speed that is still allowed because I want to hurry up to the cafe and quickly finish the unexpected business. At first glance I saw a watch whose short hand pointed to the number eleven and the long hand to the number six. An hour before Alena's birthday party started when I got to the cafe.
I went straight into the cafe and saw a woman who was sitting relaxed while supported by legs surrounded by four men with a large body posture.
“I Atep, the owner of this cafe. What's it you're looking for me?” ask me without a stale base.
“Oh, apparently you are a man named Atep who has broken my sister's heart to pieces.” The woman said something I did not understand while clapping her hands.
“I don't know you and I don't know who the sister is meant by you.” I said firmly and didn't want to be intimidated by the four big, compact men with their waists.
“My sister is named Monaliza, you must know my sister.”
“Monaliza?”
I don't know a woman named Monaliza.
“Why does the look on your face show as if you don't know my sister, huh?”
“I don't know anyone named Monaliza. Maybe you're wrong person.”
I saw one of the female bodyguards whispering something to her employer. Then the woman nodded.
“Eliza. You must know him?”
I'm trying to remember if anyone named Eliza stopped by in my life. Then I remembered one of my classmates. A beautiful quiet woman. Several times I chatted with her but it never crossed my mind to hurt the girl let alone smash her to pieces like her brother had said.
“I know and have talked several times. She's my underclassman on campus but I don't feel that I ever hurt her let alone break her heart like you said.”
“Hah, that's the reason you're alone. There's no way you're confessing, is there? Where there is maling ngaku maling.”
The woman took something in her small bag and what she took was a cell phone. It seems he contacted someone.
“Liza, now Ma'am is in front of a jerk who has broken your heart. He right?”
The woman seemed to be making a vidio call with her sister because she pointed her cell phone camera at me.
“Not, Ma'am. Ma'am don't interfere with Liza.” affairs
“You don't cover up the reality. Don't protect that son of a bitch. You've been ruined because of him.”
“Mbak, stop. It's my business with that guy. Mbak don't interfere.”
“You're Mbak's only sister. Ma'am will never accept the treatment of that depraved man against you. Don't be weak like this!” she shouted at her sister who was defending the man who had destroyed her.
“Oath, Ma'am. That man is not Kang Atep. Kang Atep Liza's. He's a good guy. Don't hurt him, Ma'am. Liza please.”
“For God's sake, Ma'am. Not Kang Atep. Ma'am don't fuck around. Don't let those ugly Mbak guards hurt Kang Atep.”
“Once again Ma'am asked. Who's the son of a bitch who ruined you? Mbak will not hesitate to destroy the person who has destroyed you.”
“Not, Ma'am. It's not Kang Atep. Ma'am don't bother him. He's a good man.”
It seems Eliza has started sobbing hearing her disjointed voice. I also wonder who the jerk who has the heart to hurt women as beautiful and gentle as Eliza.
The woman put her phone back in the bag.
“It looks like I've been mistargeted.”
Plaque.plaque..plak…
The glamorous-looking beauty started slapping her bodyguards one by one.
“You are not becus. None of your work is right. You guys have humiliated me.”
Plaque..plaque..plaque…
Once again, the woman slapped her bodyguards. There was no body gesture of fear, it seemed like the female was dominating her four bodyguards.
A dangerous woman.
I then walked up to me.
“Sorry, I've wrongly accused you.”
Then he opened the sunglasses he had been wearing.
Beautiful eyes with sharp eyes.
“My name is Evangeline. You can call me Angel.”
He raised his hand and stroked my jaw. “Atep. A unique name.”
Before he went any further, I caught his hand that started to wiggle my face and neck.
“Do not act rashly. You have accused me. Don't go on doing things I don't like like like this.”
I saw his face slightly wince. Maybe because I was holding her hand too hard.
“I assume this business is done. Never again do you appear before me.”
I threw his hand immediately.
I turned my body around to leave the cafe immediately. I don't want to be late for my special girl's special.
“Wait, Kang.” The Word called me just as I was about to open the door.
“What's up, Man?”
