Heart of a Handsome Doctor
Chapters 88. Kartika Boutique

That morning, Lian rushes out of her sleep and searches for the whereabouts of her father and mother. He intends to borrow his mother's or father's cell phone to call his mobile number.

"Any! Where are you and mom going so early?" Lian dyed looking for the figure of her father and mother.

Lian ruffled her hair in frustration. He must find his cell phone immediately.

"What if Julian's sister calls me but doesn't connect? Oh my goodness!! I don't know how anymore!!"

Lian decided to clean up first. After taking a shower, Lian put on her work suit. A black knee-length skirt and a soft pink shirt.

Lian put on her natural face. The nude color liptint sweep is her favorite. His back hair he stalls free as usual.

A strange ringing echoed in his room. It was the sound of a woman's cell phone yesterday colliding with her.

Lian immediately raised the call.

"Hello," said Lian.

"Hello, sorry, Miss. I was the one who yesterday collided with Miss at Mall XYZ. I think our phones are switched."

"Ah yes, right, Madam. I just realized last night I wanted to contact someone. I'm really sorry. I'm so careless."

"It's okay. I'm also careless."

"Oh yeah, how can we meet today? I really need my phone, Madam."

"of course. Miss can come to Kartika Boutique. I'm there every day."

"Oh so. Then I'll be there before I go to the office."

"Yes, Miss."

"Once again I'm sorry."

Call ended. Lian stared at the wallpaper featuring a boy smiling.

"You're so adorable! Your parents must be so happy to have you." Lian rubbed the phone screen.

"Why am I not willing to give this phone back?" Lian held onto his chest.

"Good, Lian! What the hell are you thinking? It's time you left. Yesterday I escaped not being scolded by Brother Julian. Not necessarily today can get away with it again!"

Lian immediately grabbed her flagship sling bag and greeted her father and mother who were eating breakfast together.

"Lian, have breakfast!" lusi.

"Well, that looks good. Where did mom and dad go? I'm looking for you but you're not there."

"We're going to the market, son. Your father's products are very popular in the market." - Lusi.

"really? Then I'll have to patent the father's product. Don't get pre-empted by irresponsible parties."

"How's it going, son?" ask Lono.

"Try asking Julian boy! He can help your father!" luci Pinta.

"Mother! We must not continue to rely on Julian. That's not good!"

"What our daughter said. We can patent our own products without having to ask for help from Nak Julian." said Lono.

Lian nodded in agreement.

"You guys!!! Father and son are the same!" susi's murmur then passed from the dining table.

Lian and Lono are each other tos' ria. "Thank you, Dad. Dad is the best!"

Lian on her way to Kartika Boutique. Unsaturated Lian looked at the photo of the boy on the phone's wallpaper.

"Perhaps if Rain was still around, he would have been this big by now." Lian's eyes suddenly condensed.

"Yes God! What the hell am I thinking? I cannot condemn God's destiny." Lian blinked her eyes so as not to cry.

"Miss, we've reached our destination" said the taxi driver.

"Ah, yes, sir."

Lian gave a taxi fare then looked at the fairly large and magnificent boutique building.

"Well! I've heard his name a lot but I've only seen his real place for the first time."

Lian walked into the boutique that had just opened it.

"Good morning, how can we help you?" ask a friendly boutique officer.

"Good morning. I would like to meet Mrs Kartika. Does he exist?"

"Mother Kartika has not arrived yet. Please Miss just wait in the waiting room."

"Oh, so yeah." Lian followed in the footsteps of the boutique clerk who drove her to a waiting room.

"What does Miss want to drink?"

"Ah, no need. I just wanted to see Mrs Kartika for a moment."

The employee understood then left Lian.

Lian looked around the soft cream colored room.

Before long, a beautiful woman entered the room Lian occupied. Lian immediately stood up to welcome the boutique owner.

"Good morning, sorry I'm a little late."

"It's okay."

"Sorry to Miss..."

"Diamond, just call Lian." Lian extended her hand.

"Kartika, just call her Tika." Kartika welcomes Lian's hand.

They sit next to each other.

"So, Mrs Tika is the owner of this boutique? I've heard of Madam a lot."

"Oh yeah? Did ya? I'm very flattered. I don't know if I'm that famous."

They also laughed a little.

"Oh yeah, it's Miss Lian's phone." Kartika hands Lian's phone.

"Ah yes, thank you." Lian received her phone back. Now it's Lian's turn to hand over Kartika's phone. There was a slight reluctance as his hand handed the phone over.

"How about we exchange mobile numbers? It seems like fate deliberately brought us together in unexpected ways" said Kartika.

"Can. Umm, ma'am, if I may know, the photo on that phone..."

"This is my son."

"Oh so yeah. If you know how old he is?"

"This year he's 5 years old."

Lian nodded in understanding.

"Please don't call me 'lady'. I'm not that old, Miss Lian."

"Ah, then how about I just call you brother?"

"Can. I'll be 35 years old."

"That means I'm younger than brother."

Just now the atmosphere was melting, suddenly Lian's phone rang. Lian rolled her eyes lazily. I can guess who contacted him.

"Sorry, Kartika. I have to go to work." said Lian.

"Yes, please. If you can tell, where do you work?"

"Ar-Rayyan Group."

"Oh, so."

Kartika looked at Lian's back which was starting to move away from her sight.

"So, she's working for Julian?" Kartika rubbed her chin.

...*...

Lian could have guessed that Julian would be angry with her. Lian forgot time. Lian knocked on Julian's office door.

"Lake in!" sounds good from inside the room.

"Excuse me, Brother. Sorry I came late. Today I..."

"Sit down!"

"Eh?"

"I'm asking you not to scold you. Do you think I'm that bad that I always scold you? Do I look that scary?" julian asked who made Lian look up.

"What's wrong with her?" inner Lian.

"Then, what business did you call me?" ask Lian at the end.

"Have you opened a gift from me?"

"Gift?" Lian knitted her brows.

Lian forgot that Julian gave her a paper bag yesterday.

"Sorry, Brother. I haven't opened it yet." Lian replied honestly.

"It's okay. You can open it later. The important thing is that you accept it."

Lian did not understand Julian's direction.

"Received it?"

"Yes. I really hope you can take it."

Julian looked at Lian with an unusual look. It's not like Julian Lian knew five years ago.

"Why is he looking at me like that? It reminds me of a long-lost friend. That look belonged to Patrick."

Lian's eyes condense as her memory twists the memory of her being together with Patrick, her best friend.

...B E R S A M B U N G...

"Kira2 Julian love what gift to Lian?" 😯😯😯
