A Handful of Love for You
63. She's my love

Atep POV

“Wait, Kang!” The Word called me just as I was about to open the door.

“What's up, Man?”

I've been restless and agitated over the worry of coming late. Half an hour later Alena's birthday celebration started and I'm still here. My phone was already filled with chat notifications from Teh Iyah reminding me to come on time.

“Order of coffee beans can not be processed while our stock has been thinned.”

“Why can't it be processed?” my many.

“Price issues. The supplier raises the price. I cannot decide if I have not reported with Akang.”

“How much price do they offer?”

“Two fold.”

“What's not wrong they offer you a price? We look for other suppliers that offer cheaper with the same quality. I don't like them toying with price.”

“Means we have to find another new supplier, while the time we have mepet because the stock has also been thinned.”

“Can I give you a business card?”

The woman has not left. He walked over to me and gave me a business card.

“It turns out we are indeed paired,” he said sounding relaxed.

“What do you mean?”

“Sorry if I eavesdropped on your conversation. I heard that you're in need of a coffee bean supplier. I could be that supplier.”

“You are a coffee bean seller?”

The woman nodded. “Not just a regular seller but a big seller. You'll be lucky if you trade with me.”

“How much price do you offer? If indeed the price comes in, of course I will agree to trade with you.”

“Can we talk in a more private place?” ask with her eyes rolling.

“I'm not used to talking alone with women. We better talk about it here. If you are not willing chances are I will not accept an offer from you.”

“Good. We talk here.” The woman obeyed me.

After half an hour of discussion, it was decided that the woman would become the new coffee bean supplier. I didn't expect an exporter like him to trade with a small cafe owner like me. Hopefully I didn't choose the wrong supplier this time.

“Man, prepare a letter of agreement with Bu Evangeline.”

“Already, Kang. I have prepared the letter. I just changed the name of the supplier. If the terms are the same.”

“Please read the agreement letter Bu Evangeline.” I'm presenting a letter of agreement that we'll both sign as first and second parties.

The woman immediately signed without reading the agreement file first.

“You didn't read it first and signed it right away? You do not worry if this agreement will harm you?”

The woman shook her head. “I believe in you.”

Huh, earlier I he insisted that I was a man who had hurt his sister and did not believe my words. Now he trusts me. You weird chick.

“Not more than an hour, You accuse me of a deed I did not do and You do not believe that I am innocent even though Your sister has told you many times.”

The woman laughed. “Forget that one. Now we just think about what is in our future. It's a pleasure doing business with you and don't call me Mom. The effect is old. Just call me my name, Angel.”

He reached out to shake hands with me.

“It's nice to do business with you too. Thank you for your willingness to supply quality coffee beans for my cafe.”

He smiled sweetly and still did not let go of his hand department.

“Sorry, Mom.” I tried to let go of my hand.

“Alright, Angel.”

He took off his hand and then kissed my right and left cheeks.

“Bonus from me,” he said with a seductive look on his eyes. Huh, am I really tempted by her eyes? I held the truth many times in my heart.

“Basic crazy woman.” rutukku in heart.

After making me surprised by his kiss, he took a leisurely stroll out of the cafe. “See you again.” said the woman almost shouted.

I saw a watch on my wrist that showed almost one o'clock in the afternoon. I immediately rushed to perform the Zuhur prayer. When finished, I instructed the Word to handle all the cafe business today.

Immediately turn on the motor and plug the gas to immediately arrive at the residence of Alena's sister. I'm sure I'll be late for the show. I felt the vibrating tone of the phone I kept in my pants pocket. It must be Teh Iyah who called me.

I have already resignedly received anger from Teh Iyah and the Alena family. I asked them to help in my application but I was late.

I called the bike immediately without breaking any traffic rules. Although I want to get there quickly but the safety of myself and others is more important.

Along the way to Kagendra's house, my heart thumping more and more to make my head dizzy. I have to be extra careful in riding a motorcycle because it could be the result of abnormal heart work can make me involved in a traffic accident.

Entering the complex of Kagendra and Teh Iyah house, my heart beat was more and more crazy. I took a deep breath and took it out slowly. I repeated it many times until the madness of my heart beat subsided.

I saw the watch on my wrist, exactly two o'clock. I stopped the motor just in front of Kagendra's house. I'll park the bike in the garage soon. Luckily there is still a little place to store the motor.

After feeling a little calm I set foot into the house that will be a historic place because this is where I will make my feelings and propose to Alena in front of her family. It is easy for God to launch and facilitate my efforts.

I ran to the front door and went straight into the house because I saw the door open. All of Alena's family was present and I saw Teh Iyah looking at me with sharp eyes.

Instantly my heart beat uncontrollably. I took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly. I say many prayers in my heart.

“Atep! Where have you been? Why are you late?” Teh Iyah approached me while shouting. His hands are ready to touch my ears.

“Sorry Tea, there was a problem in the cafe that must be resolved immediately,” I replied in a hurry.

“What are the important issues until you get late, huh?” ask Teh Iyah with a high tone.

“Don't be angry, later dede baby is scared as the sound of your crypreng,” sela Kagendra who is worried about his wife and children who are still in his wife's stomach.

“Recoverable. This child is indeed a hobby to make Iyah upset,” Teh Iyah said to her husband. “If not your own sister, Iyah hit until battered.”

I chuckled at the threat of Teh Iyah.

“How, Tea?” I asked Teh Iyah while looking at her.

“Do not stare at people's wives for too long!” hardik Kagendra, an acute jealous man.

“Ih...what-what the hell?” Iyah's tea hit her husband's arm and was reciprocated by the husband's close embrace.

“Leasin! sultry!” Teh Iyah tried to escape from Kagendra's embrace but her husband instead showered Teh Iyah's face with a kiss.

“Basic husband tacky,” rutukku in a low voice almost whispered but it still seems to be heard by Kagendra.

“Biarina. So quickly marry the Lena,” Cibir Kagendra.

“Soon. If I can get married today, I immediately marry,”, I replied firmly with the laughter of the older brother of the woman I love.

I soon passed from that happy couple. Still heard their voices clashing.

I went into the living room, where all the Alena family was gathering. He's right there. I looked at her, very beautiful and elegant with a soft colored dress. It looks so pretty in my eyes.

“Len,” I call his name slowly.

He turned and looked at me.
