Lisa stopped the taxi after walking far enough from her place with Marvin earlier.
The distance between his house and his current place is quite close, it may only take about 20 to 30 minutes.
He came in when the taxi stopped right in front of him.
I'm sorry Marvin, I don't want you to be disappointed in me one day. All this time I've been trying to make friends with anyone, but I finally had to swallow the disappointment because they eventually stayed away from me when the rumors got to their ears.
I began to limit my association, until I finally only had a friend named Arumi. A very sincere and mature person. Sometimes I want to be just an ordinary person like Rumi so that my life is calmer without interference from Stevi and her social friends.
Elisa was still trying to wipe her tears while in the car. Until the middle-aged man who was focusing on driving was paying little attention to him.
"Non's tissue?" the bargain to Elisha who had been busy wiping the clear melt that kept rolling on his cheek.
"Thank you, sir," he replied, welcoming the taxi driver's offer. He took some tissue from his hand.
"Sometimes life doesn't live up to our wishes, Non. But we still have to live it. Whatever your problem, may God give you the best path for Miss" said the taxi driver, who made the melt flow faster.
"Thank you for the comfort, sir. Father also, may always be blessed and endowed with many favors," he said while trying to smile.
"Miss seems like a very nice person, there must be a lot of people who love Miss,"
Elisha smiled, but a stroke of sadness was evident from the look on his face.
It was seen by the taxi driver.
"I'm sorry if I misspoke, Non" said the driver, feeling guilty because his passenger's face grew grim after hearing his words.
"Why apologize, sir? I'm just so grateful there are still people who love me all this time" Lisa comforted.
Yes, even though those people were only Bi Sum and Bi Yanti. But Elisha felt like this was enough.
There was no mother hug, but there were still the hands of the two people who were always ready to gently caress her and calm her down since she was a child.
"Thank God, I guess, you're saying the wrong thing,"
"No, sir,"
Then they both smiled.
"Miss house here? This includes one of the elite housing complexes, Non,"
"I just hitchhiked, sir," he replied with a smile.
"Oh ...so? Which one's the house, Non?" ask the driver while slowing down his vehicle.
"That silver and tall fence, sir," answered Lisa, pointing to a rather magnificent house with a fence and a gate towering not far from them.
The taxi driver stopped his car right in front of the designated house.
"This is right, Non?"
"Yes, sir," Lisa replied, handing over a piece of money to the middle-aged man who drove her.
"Return, Non?" she screamed as Lisa was about to get away from her car.
"Keep it, sir" he replied, cupping his hands and bowing politely.
The taxi driver smiled and watched the person he was delivering.
Lisa stepped her feet through the rocks that were deliberately arranged neatly in her yard.
He felt a little calmer after having a little chat with the taxi driver.
He grabbed the doorknob of his house and turned it around while giving it a little push until it opened.
"Auntie said you were sick? Why wander?" ask Hanggara who is sitting in the middle room.
"Lisa's just looking for air,"
"Search for air or find the striped-nose men?" search for Hanggara while standing and circling his daughter.
"How many times has Lisa said to Papa, Lisa has never had any relationship with the men that Papa meant!" Lisa raised her voice. Just now he felt a little relieved after shedding tears that made him tight earlier.
"Then what is this?"
Hanggara showed me a picture of him being with Marvin. Unfortunately, only Marvin's back was visible.
"This? Where did Papa get this picture?"
"It doesn't matter where Papa got this photo. But obviously Papa was very disappointed in you Lisa, because you never changed until now. You're young, you don't lack anything either. Papa can still give you money and give you whatever you want. But why should this path be the one you take? Give your body to everyone who approaches you. That's a very embarrassing thing, Lisa. If you want a car or a luxury item like Stevi's sister, you can ask Papa. Or if you want to make your own money, work like Stevi's!"
Scars of disappointment were clearly emanated from the look of Hanggara's face.
He did not end up thinking with the mind of his second daughter all this time.
