Dusk For Nathan 2
16

" Gio, don't play it far, baby." I screamed a little at the trouble of serving buyers. Today the shop is quite crowded. In addition, there are two employees I do not permit to enter. Makes me a little troubled.

" Yes, ma." Sahut Gio who has run out of the store.

I serve the buyer who wants to pay while my tail glances at Gio running.

" Mom.. Papa's coming!" Gio exclaimed cheerfully as he entered the shop and approached me. His face was very happy while showing the paper bag towards me.

I smiled and saw Nathan walking behind Gio.

" Please replace me for a minute." I said to Tika who has since helped me put clothes bought by consumers into a pocket of crackle.

I approached Nathan who was looking at me with his flat face. " What's up?" I asked with a flat face. No. I showed my pleasure for seeing it.

" I'd like to take you and Gio to the house."

" I'm busy. The shop is crowded right now. You saw it for yourself, right?!" I was impressed to refuse his invitation.

" I can help." Nathan said again.

" No need. Your future wife will be angry!" My mother still hides my feelings.

" Will not. I don't have a wife yet." Nathan said and immediately walked to the cashier's desk.

His handsome face and also his posture made everyone switch to looking at him. Same with Tika. His hands scanned the clothes on the table. But his eyes were fixed on Nathan.

Haduhh is not right. Could bankrupt me. When I saw Tika put some clothes in plastic but it did not count.

I immediately approached Tika and asked her to tidy up the clothes on the display. I had to let Nathan help me. Many shopgoers praised his good looks. Some even asked to take a picture together. Like meeting an artist.

I just smile at the sight of it and sometimes shake my head at the behavior of visitors.

I don't know what wind. Visitors in my shop are getting late. More and more crowded. It is very unusual and even more strangely average that comes today women. If anyone had just entered it would have deliberately walked over to the cashier's desk and whispered while pointing towards Nathan. I didn't know Nathan was paying attention to that or not. But today he really became the highlight and main object in my shop.

" Are you satisfied?" A young woman suddenly came towards me.

I who was focused on serving the buyers instantly looked at him.

" Angel!" Little Nathan's jerk doesn't like him talking with high intonation.

Nathan immediately abandons his activities and pulls Angel away from us. I don't know what they're talking about. I try not to care.

" Mba, I'll count it later. Wait for that." Pinta a mother while pointing at Nathan who was talking to Angel.

I smiled clumsyly. It is aged but still likes young leaves. I obeyed his wishes and went on to calculate the other shoppers' groceries. But again refuse. Yasudah while I stopped my activities and walked over to Nathan and Angel.

" Hurry you home!" Nathan exclaimed in anger when I got close to them and I stopped my steps.

" I'm going to destroy this shop. You're all mine, Nathan. I won't let another woman get you!" Threatening Angel is no less angry.

" Never touch this shop or the Dusk family!" Nathan confirmed his words and immediately walked towards me.

By stomping his feet. Angel looked at me with anger and passed out of my shop.

*****

It was getting dark, I decided to close the shop earlier than usual. Tired of this body. I smiled with satisfaction at my empty shop. The flood of buyers like today really makes me not expect.

" Thank you, yeah. My store is in great demand because you came." I'm a little ashamed of Nathan.

" It's ok. So when are you going to my house?" Ask to make sure I'm coming.

" It's okay now. I'll stay at your house if I can." I said with a down face. The whole day with him made me unable to look at him.

" Ok."

After eating the fried rice that Jerry bought, we headed to Nathan's house. It never occurred to me to set my foot back there. I used to worry about Nathan and Ayuna's relationship. But now I'm not worried about anything. Is this a sign that we are fighting. Ah, why do I still wish to be a match with him. Soon I threw away that thought.

" Can I ask you something?" I asked to open the chat.

" Please."

" I'm sorry before. Ayuna died why?" I asked a little carefully.

" Car accident. Engineered by someone who knows who's behind it." Nathan answered with a heavy sigh.

" What do you mean?"

" That day. Ayuna pregnancy has reached the age of 7 months. He was on someone's phone. He said it was one of my office employees asked me to come to the office right now. Ayuna, who was afraid of me, took her car keys and the accident happened. Suddenly Ayuna's car was hit from the front at high speed. That resulted in Ayuna and our future son dying." Nathan looks to wipe his eyes. She must be sad to lose two people she cares about at once. Nathan took a deep breath to relieve the tightness in the chest. Not Nathan. I'm the one who's not Ayuna just feel claustrophobic.

" How do you know the accident was engineered?" I'm still curious.

" It's all very coincidental. But the police investigation, the driver who hit Ayuna drunk. He's only in jail while my wife and son are.." Nathan can't continue his words. He looks increasingly claustrophobic.

I patted her softly on her shoulder. " Patience, Nath." My word.

Nathan pulled the car over and put his face on the steering wheel. His body shook slightly and many times he took a long, heavy breath.

Nathan-I'm really grieving. He must have been devastated as well as Bu Fitri.

" I'm sorry Dusk." He said with slightly wet eyes. He seems much more relieved.

" Sorry. I didn't mean to make you sad." I feel sorry. Nathan smiled and drove back to his car.

Along the way I kept quiet and stared out the window. Every now and then I watch Nathan from the reflection of the windshield. A tired and full of weight is clearly visible. All this time people were only fixated on his good looks and his sweeping gaze.

I wanted to hug her and share her troubles. I don't want to see it like this.

The ringing of my phone broke my daydream. I'll get my phone out of the bag immediately. I saw Reza's name there. I immediately picked it up.

" What's up, Za?" I was too lazy to talk to him.

" Where are you? I'm in front of your house." His word.

" Homeway. I'm visiting my friend's house."

" Who?" Reza curious.

" Bye." I ignored his question and immediately turned off my phone and put it back in my bag.
