ASA IS FADING
CHAPTER 4. Curious


"Where are you?"


That sound. Jihan was a few moments. Who's the baritone voice. Like recognizing but not remembering. Jihan tried to guess but she got no shadow.


"Who are you?" Ask Jihan.


"You're Jihan, right?"


"Yes, I'm Jihan." The girl allowed. He's not lying. Sami smiled with relief.


"You who?"


"Can we meet? I want to apologize for kissing you the other day." Tukas Sami without hesitation. He immediately expressed his heart to the girl. Hope Jihan's ready to see him back. He felt guilty for doing something silly to Jihan.


Gosh darn. Jihan stunned. That's her voice. That cold guy. Customers who had served in room service the other day. The man who had kissed her forcibly. It was because of the sudden attack from the man that made Jihan feel harassed. Jihan was too shocked. He does not accept. Without a second thought Jihan desperately left the man without excuse. She was too embarrassed to feel unappreciated. He was forcefully kissed while he was singing.


"You...?" Jehan's voice paused. He doesn't believe. The cold man called. How could?


"Yes it's me. Samis. Customers the other day. You inget?"


"Do you know where my phone number is?" Ask Jihan at last. He did not know where this man got his phone number from. How did he get in touch with Jihan? The girl did not feel she had shared her personal number with anyone other than for work.


"That doesn't matter, Jihan. What matters is that we can meet? I'm at the Star Cafe. Intentionally meeting you, but you didn't go in. You have three days off. Is it because of me?" Ask Sami without further ado. He was desperate to ask directly why Jihan did not go back to work after that day. Sami believes it must have something to do with the incident that happened between him and Jihan the other day. It must have something to do with the kiss. Because of that, Sami also felt guilty. Jihan's pale face recounted after she attacked the girl while singing. Sami's not feeling good.


"Don't be too formal, Jihan." Pinta Sami with a calm tone. The man's distinctive features. He never increases his intonation when speaking. Even when he is upset or angry.


"OK fine. Mr. Sami."


"Call me for it." Changed again.


"Yes. I don't want that incident anymore. Don't need to discuss. Don't extend it anymore." Jihan. He had to lie. For whatever sake Jihan really can't forget what happened the other day. The incident he thought was so embarrassing. Jihan can't even stand that guy anymore. Especially to go back there. Jihan is no longer.


"But I want to apologize directly to you. Want to see you again, can you??" Sami asked expectantly. He didn't care even though he sounded a little begging. I don't know why he wanted to see Jihan. He wanted to see that sweet face again. I don't know what happened to his heart. A sudden longing came over.


"I'm sorry, though. I'm missing too." Jihan gave an answer. He hopes the man understands if he has rejected the invitation indirectly. Although he actually could not forget.


"But I can't forget what happened the other day. I feel guilty. Want to apologize directly. Can we see you again?" Sami doesn't want to give up. Hope Jihan will accept his invitation. Although only for a moment.


"Lupain aja mas, Sami."


"Please..."


The voice was like begging. Makes Jihan suddenly feel doubtful. What's he supposed to do? Should he accept the man's invitation? Or did he just ignore it?
