ALBRA
9. Back to Meet

Just at 10 am, Qyen heard the greeting of Ian, the brother of Albra who suddenly got out of his car with a big smile towards Qyen and asked for news.

“Hai, Qyen. How are you?”

“Ian? Hi good news,” replied Qyen while also smiling awkwardly.

Shortly after, two employees got out of Ian's car and opened the trunk of the car. Qyen noticed the two officers, they took out a large package that Qyen had returned this morning on orders from Fin. Qyen frowned, is that as soon as the package given by Albra returned to her residence this morning?

“Ke ... why behind, Ian?” qyen asked as he retreated his steps so as not to block the way of the employees who were moving the package.

“Gue who should ask Lo. Why Lo balikin?” now Ian turned to Qyen to ask him why Qyen had returned the package to their company.

“Em .. sorry, I guess the package was misplaced. Thank you sir,” said Qyen at the end of his sentence politely thanking the employee who had brought the big package into his shop.

“Might not send wrong. Consider it a gift from Alan,” said Ian.

Qyen who was not comfortable chatting while standing up, he invited Ian to enter his shop to chat casually, but Ian quickly refused.

“Gue won't be here long. Oh yes, where do you know the company address Albra?” asked Ian who was already very curious about how Qyen returned the big package.

Qyen was silent for a moment because she did not know what to answer. He even scratched his head that did not itch. “Actually it wasn't me who returned the package there,” replied Qyen with some hesitation.

“Then?”

“Emm .. my friend delivered it. But I also don't know how he knows Mr. Albra's company address. Something wrong, Ian?” ask Qyen carefully.

Seeing Qyen's extremely innocent face made Ian worry. Ian has an estimate that Qyen's age is below that. It is evident from his very young face. There were so many negative thoughts that stopped by Ian's head because he saw that very innocent Qyen, what if Qyen was easily lied to by others? Desire to protect Qyen, now enveloped his heart.

“Ian? Why daydream?” qyen asked as she moved her hands in front of Ian's face.

Ian quickly regained his senses and immediately showed his smile to Qyen. “Not-nothing.”

“I asked, why didn't you answer?” qyen asked back with her soft voice.

“Oh yes. There's nothing wrong. The name of the person who returned the package was really Fin Ghazi? True friend Lo or ... Lo's girlfriend?” Ian was now more and more curious about the woman standing before him.

Ian could see if Qyen was laughing a little. “I don't have a boyfriend. Fin was once a person who likes to buy fruits here, because we often meet, so we already deket. Just a minute,” replied Qyen casually.

“Alright, Qyen. Ah, I forgot to tell you, Lo. Before coming here Alan nangis chasing I, he said he wanted to come.” Ian told me a little bit about Alan.

“Really? Ah why don't you just take it? Uh, sorry ..” said Qyen weakened at the end of the sentence.

He had just realized, Qyen should not have spoken like that to Ian. Who told Alan to meet him anyway? Remembering Alan's cute and handsome face made Qyen smile.

“It's okay. Alan also likes it when again Lo.”

Qyen could only nod. He remembered Fin's words this morning, Qyen should not have to interfere with other people's affairs, or later he would be affected by the consequences. Moreover, the Alan family was an influential person in this place, even Qyen was nothing compared to the little boy. Remembering Alan, Qyen could not remove the figure of Albra from his mind.

“OK. I'm just here to take that to Lo. I'm sorry, Qyen.”

Qyen could only nod, and smiled as he waved his hand.

Qyen walked into his shop, then went back to see the sizable package.

“This fits in my room no yes?” mumbling slowly.

With all her might, Qyen moved the large package in a way to slightly lift it and slightly push it through the stairs to get to the bottom floor where the room was. He opened the package, and Qyen could see and feel if the mattress from Albra was not playing nice.

“Wah .. This is very comfortable for sleeping all day. No more gatels because of the mattress,” muttered Qyen with a smile.

“Even have the warranty?” qyen asked with a bit of surprise.

After reading a guidebook about a mattress that was too classy for him, Qyen finished moving the mattress into his room. It turns out that the size of the mattress fits the room, not too big or too small. Not to forget, Qyen also moved his old mattress to the top floor, where the empty room was located.

Feeling tired, he laid his body on the new mattress. It feels really comfortable. Closing his eyes, Qyen thought about what activities he should do after this other than selling fruit.

“Beras has run out, the toiletries have run out too. Looks like I have to go to the super market later tonight,” said Qyen who was thinking of buying his needs. He chose the super market because the price there is cheaper than he bought these items in retail.

By nightfall, Qyen was getting ready to go buy her needs at the super market after closing her shop a few minutes ago. Qyen only wears black trousers, and a short t-shirt wrapped in her pink cardigan, she tucks her hair and carries a small purse in her hand, not to forget her phone is also brought. The plan, Qyen will go to the super market using public transportation that likes to pass in front of the store street.

Waiting for about three minutes, he was finally able to get into public transportation that would deliver him to the super market. The night road today looks quite arid, the street lights look very pretty, even Qyen can hear the sound of the waves vaguely here.

“Night is never wrong,” said Qyen with a smile.

It only took 10 minutes, finally Qyen arrived at the super market he was headed. Qyen entered while pushing the trolley, his main goal this time was to buy rice and toiletries, even it seemed that Qyen was going to buy other items because he had seen large discount banners everywhere.

“Pantes only again there is a massive discount, it turns out this is again an old date. Good thing I came here today,” muttered Qyen casually.

After he finished buying his goods, he was tempted by the discounts found in fast food stands. “It looks like many tempted people come there,” muttered Qyen when he saw others were there to choose food.

While walking leisurely, Qyen was surprised that someone hit him from behind.

“Sorry, I don't see.”

Hearing the sound, he turned his body and helped the little boy to wake up. But, Qyen felt familiar with the voice of the boy. Haven't had time Qyen saw the boy's face, suddenly ... “Alan!” the call sounded to her ears.

Qyen was quite surprised, he also looked at the face of the boy who was now in front of him. Both were surprised at the same time.

“Alan!”

“Qyen!”

Qyen had not spoken a single word, Alan quickly hugged Qyen's leg very tightly, and all that Albra witnessed with his own eyes.

Looking at the surprised Albra, Qyen was now feeling awkward, unable to let go of Alan's embrace on his leg. Even at this moment, several pairs of eyes were looking towards them.

Albra could not stay still, she approached her son. “Alan, can not be like that,” remember Albra. It is fitting that Alan forced himself to go to the super market turned out to be an unexpected event like this.

“Qyen, do you remember me?” alan asked who was now letting go of his embrace, but clasped Qyen's hand tightly.,

Qyen could not speak, as he felt disrespectful. He looked at Albra with a sense of awkwardness, involuntarily, Qyen's soft eyes met with Albra's sharp eyes, at that moment, Qyen immediately shifted her vision and tried to remove her hand from Alan's grasp.

“Why? You're mad at me, Qyen?’ alan asked who was clutching Qyen's hand.

Qyen could not answer, as he had not yet obtained permission from Albra to speak to Alan.

“Jawab only,” says Albra.

“No, what are you doing here?” tanya Qyen made small talk, even though her heartbeat could not be controlled.

“I'm buying ice cream, and some snacks. What are you doing, Qyen? You want to come to my house?” alan asked who spoke quickly.

“Ah like that? Sorry Alan, it's late, I have to go home.” Qyen who felt very awkward, had to talk like that to a child.

“Really? Pah ... can you take Qyen home? I want to play with Qyen ..” whining Alan very funny.

Qyen was panicked, how could Alan speak like that in front of his father, Albra? Qyen's panic grew when he saw Albra's unfriendly face.

“Qyen, you wait here and shut up. You can't go anywhere,” said Alan who let go of Qyen's hand and is now walking back 5 steps to go to Albra.

“I want to talk to Papa, this is serious,” said the smart little boy.

Seeing the situation that had begun to be safe, Qyen felt this was his chance to escape from this place, but Alan's voice interrupted him. “Qyen, I know you want to escape,” Alan said.

Finished whispering something with his papa, Alan immediately ran towards Qyen and held back Qyen's hand tightly.

“Pa?” call Alan.

No matter what their negotiations were, Albra agreed by nodding her head. “Yes. I love you, Papa.”

Qyen who knows nothing here, he just complies when his hand is grasped by Alan and walks around the super market. Even all the time, Alan always chattered about anything that concerned about the daily life of the little boy.
