Jakarta - Tokyo Love Story
47. Ex Call

As soon as he saw Kalula walking back to the cafe, Dika immediately ran towards his office.

A few minutes ago Edward just called him to ask about Kalula. Now the girl walked through the side area of the cafe with a sad face.

Dika can't bear. But Edward's threats scare him too. He called Edward again.

"Sir, Kalula is here again with the same suitcase. He's gonna want to ask you about his salary, sir. I don't have the heart. What do I do, sir?" Dika peeked out of the window of her room and saw Kalula was only a few meters away from her door.

"Yes just said kayak earlier. There are errors and problems with the same account. Just make him blush. You promised me his salary would be taken care of as soon as possible. If he asks for your personal money or whatever it is, don't give it. Just watch!"

The voice of the order from Edward made Dika tremble as well. And finally when the door of her room was knocked, Dika could only wipe her sweat and open the door nervously.

"Oh, hi, Kal. What was? Isn't your shift clock finished?" He opened the door and greeted.

"Yes, Sir. I went home earlier. I want to talk about my salary. Why haven't you come down yet, sir? I need the money to pay the cost." Kalula asked without further ado. It's dead-end.

Dika scratched his head. With a heavy heart he finally told the lie. Technical problems of the central side that he can not handle. Kalula listened to Dika's lying explanation with a clear face. The study he was waiting for turned out to be the end of it.

Even if he pays today, then for the first time in his life, he can use his own salary without being asked by Mama Sastri or Karina.

"I'll try to do it quickly, Kal. It is not my authority. Later if it turns out that your account problem, you create another account yes a new one. I'll help you later." Dika said with a pity.

Kalula. He looked at Dika with a pleading gaze.

"I don't have enough money. I have to pay the cost money. Can't my salary be cash?" Kalula threw away her embarrassment. He asked Dika this expectantly.

Dika shook with a heavy heart. He has personal money to lend to Kalula, but he is afraid of being caught by Edward and everything turns out to be messy. He might have been sprayed.

"Oh, Kal. I can't help. That is central authority. I just handle the technical and the field. Salary beyond my authority. Mmm, is it possible that you could ask Mr. Edward for help?" Dika mentioned the name of the boss he was afraid of with doubt.

Kalula shook weakly.

Nope! Don't let him call Edward again! He has decided to avoid. It's been quite a month since he was 'tricked' by Edward's charms. Being treated like a stupid girl who is easily lied to make the ego in Kalula sting too. Yes, although it must be admitted, Edward's charm is alluring.

Not because of his handsome face or perfect physique. Kalula was more touched by the way the man appreciated her, the way she cared and cared in different forms.

Edward might just be a friend to her. But Edward always knew how Kalula wanted to be treated. Edward gave her space to express her weakness, her tiredness, her despair. Only then could he make Kalula rise in such an amazing way.

If with Edo, Kalula actually felt the opposite. Edo gave him no room to feel weak. Edo always told him to be strong and defend, but sometimes Kalula wanted to stop sometimes also because he was tired.

Edo did win by the number of years and the intensity of his time with him. Edo colors his teenage years.

But Edward is another. He was present in Kalula's life when he was an adult. When Kalula many life problems and more complicated pettiness.

Edward knows how to tattoo Kalula.

"No need, sir. I'm waiting for Mr. Dika who takes care of. Soon as possible, sir. I need the money." Kalula looked at Dika with a disappointed face and then he left.

Really, Dika really can't. He saw Kalula who walked away while dragging his suitcase.

I don't know where he's going home tonight...

"Yes, Sir. About twenty minutes ago. I want to call you directly but there was a little incident at the cafe. So I've just had a chance to tell you now."

Dika's voice at the end of this phone call made the look on Edward's face that had been sad turned into gloomy.

Aye? It was twenty minutes ago but why didn't Kalula also contact him? Where's she? Would she go back to her mother's house?

Edward was panicking. He then switched off the phone with Dika. Afraid that Kalula would not be able to reach her because her call was blocked by Dika.

For five minutes Edward paced in his luxurious apartment. Now it feels empty without Kalula.

While pacing back and forth he looked at the screen of his phone. He really wanted Kalula to contact him as soon as possible.

"Ed, can I stay in your apartment again?"

Oh, those are the words he's been waiting for. But a phone call or a short message from Kalula never came.

Suddenly Edward was worried. Where did Kalula go? What if something happens to that kid?

Where it's night again.

Edward bit his own lips with a huff. His handsome face looked gloomy as his forehead was wrinkled.

Drtts! Drtts!

Finally the phone call came.

Wasn't it! Kalula didn't call Edward. But it was Edo who called Kalula from Tokyo.

"Kal's? Roby was there. You don't move places. Stay at the location you shared with me earlier. Anyway you calm down. Roby's good. I guarantee that." Edo's voice sounded anxious.

Yes, once there is a problem about his salary and dead-end because confused about what to and where, Kalula spontaneously sent a short message to Edo.

Edo was the first person he had ever called when he had a problem. Maybe before they break up there are many problems, misunderstandings, prejudices, jealousy, and endless fights. But after breaking up, Kalula still felt he could contact Edo at any time.

Yeah, Edo's not just an ex-girlfriend. Edo was his best friend, his brother. Almost 20 years old, 5 years there is Edo in every moment of his life, in hard and happy.

"Thanks, Do. I don't know what else to do. Yesterday's feeling my bank account was fine. There's no problem." Kalula replied in a faint voice.

"Oh my goodness, Kal. Anyway, calm down. I'm grateful you'll call me at this time. What matters is that you're out of Edward's apartment." Edo's voice still sounded worried.

"Yes, thanks, Do. I don't know what else to do. I don't want to go back to Mama's house." Kalula's voice was starting to crackle. Want to be strengthened anyway if you feel weak yes weak.

"No! Don't go back to that house again, Kal. Pelase. Mama Sastri and Karina have used you enough for years..."

"Do! Roby's got a brown jacket, right? I think he's coming." Kalula cut Edo's words when he saw a man running towards him.

Is that really Roby?
