Long Journey of Tough Women
31. Missing In Silence

Missing is something that cannot be seen, but can be felt. There are longings that can freely be expressed, but there are longings that cannot be expressed for certain reasons.

Believe that to whom your longing is addressed, whether he knows it or not you have made yourself a longing figure who has withstood the sense that cannot be told. Eda Sally

*****

Yuana sadly stared at her sister's departure until her car disappeared. She has not wanted to part with her brother, but due to the demands of her job, she cannot hold back her brother. Her sister could come and stay for a day Yuana was already very grateful.

After a long period of pondering, Yuana rushes back to her room to prepare some documents that tomorrow will be given to Bram's secretary, and partly she diligently reads them because tomorrow she must present them in place of Bram's secretary.

Yuana too late struggling with her laptop until she was unaware that the clock had shown at 23:00. Since everything that was done was done, Yuana immediately cleared her work to sleep.

As he was about to get into bed, his phone rang.

Who's calling with the nights.

Yuana stared at the new number listed on the phone screen and was lazy to pick up for fear if it was a prankster.

Yuana prefers to sleep because tomorrow she has to go to the office early to arrange and make sure some schedule that will be attended by the big master goes according to plan because there will also be a meeting with the leader children of the Angkasa Group branch outside the city that must be attended by a big master.

When Yuana was about to close her eyes, her phone shook. Yuana chose to read it. Who knows it's important. That was what Yuana had in mind. Yuana immediately grabbed her phone and read the incoming message.

"I miss you, baby?"

Yuana did not respond due to the new number.

"Have you opened the box that I put through Bram's secretary?"

Deg, man,!

After reading the second message that came in, Yuana's heart skipped a beat and immediately realized who had sent the message.

Yuana immediately remembered the box that had been given by Bram's secretary. He hasn't opened it at all. While Joshua's got it taken

"Oh, not answered? Why am I so nervous?" Yuana said to herself.

Yuana immediately opened the box that she had forgotten to notice. He was very surprised when he saw the contents. A bag and a dress that is in the same color. He could not estimate how much the price because the dress and bag were really branded, judging from the brand.

When weighing the bag, a letter tucked away fell down. Yuana immediately took the letter and read it.

If you've opened the gift I gave you, I hope you can smile even if I can't see it. Maybe I won't be able to see you for long enough, because of the circumstances that forced us. But believe me, all this love is only for you. I don't know how you feel about me, but you need to know that I'll never throw away the taste I already gave you. And for this dress and bag, I hope you wear it next week for my Birthday. You must be so pretty in that dress.

Who always loved you. Erik William

Yuana shed tears while reading the writing. All this time he was deliberately indifferent because he felt unworthy of Erik. Maybe he is intelligent, but not for the social status that lies between them. That was the reason why he always forced his feelings to regard Erik as his brother. But after hearing all that Joshua had said, Yuana's heart began to worry about what he was trying to keep.

"If you have opened the box and have read the letter, sleep because I know you have smiled even though I cannot see it. Good Nights. Love You❤❤"

Finally, after being confused about what to reply, Yuana only sent two words to reply to the message.

"Thank you❤"

"Maybe that's all I can say. For now I myself am confused where to start. It feels too heavy to live. Nor can I speak at length to reciprocate his feelings, for if I do, I myself will be thrown out of my work."

*****

Erik who received a reply from Yuana did not believe that Yuana would reply to his message even if only using a very common word. But for Erik, that was enough.

Erik, who was originally going to sleep thinking that Yuana was unlikely to return the message, immediately sat back down and stared at the phone screen with a smile.

"Thank you❤"

Erik repeatedly read the message and smiled to himself imagining that Yuana might be smiling as she replied to the message. Which makes him smile while continuing to stare at the phone screen because at the end of the word there is a heart emoticon. For Erik, that was enough even though Yuana did not say at length.

If I stay here, I won't be able to hold my heart back from meeting him. No matter how hard I hold it, I can never. That's why I have to get away from him. Maybe with me far away, our love will get stronger. Here I can not freely contact him let alone meet, because papa trust people are always everywhere. The only way is for me to continue my studies so that I am no longer supervised by anyone.

I'm also bored every day of having to be told to pick up that shitty woman. It's immoral, matre, it's a cry for mercy. I hate women like that. I can't keep pretending like this.

"I have to go. Maybe with me gone, Celine would change her mind not to continue waiting for me and immediately look for a replacement. Such a woman could restrain herself." Erik spoke to himself.

Erik suddenly remembers that he had to remind Bram's secretary.

"For my Birthday next week, don't forget to include Yuana in the event, according to your plans." Erik.

"Good young master. I will do as you command. Do I need to call a salon person to dress Miss Yuana up? Given that Miss Yuana is not used to dressing up." Secretary Bram

"It better be so. I want her to look perfect on my show. And don't give the receptionist's job to him. Give her another task that fits her better. I don't want to see him shaking hands and holding another man." Erik

"Good young master. I'll watch." Reply to Bram's secretary with a smile.

After receiving a reply from Bram's secretary, Erik immediately went to bed still hugging his phone so happy because there was a message Yuana on his phone.
