Look at Me, Elle
Chapter 29 The Mask?
The snapshot from Naomi's camera phone was so loud that some of the people next to her turned to her. Because it has not been getting the maximum pose and shooting the whole body, this cute curly-haired woman poked one of those who happened to pass in front of her. "Excuse me, sorry .. Can you please take a picture of me?" ask her with a friendly smile at the pink hooded youngster.
"Can, Brother."
"I'm sorry, yes, it's troublesome" he added, who felt a little uneasy. However, Naomi knew that asking for help suddenly was not pleasant for some people.
"No problem, brother. Just relax, come on! Ready, Brother?!"
"Just wait a minute." Then he patted the shoulder gently of the person wearing the pocong costume and asked again, "Mas, photo me once again! The picture was not good!" pekiknya a bit hard because around him a lot of people are unpretentious and on his right there is a cafe and there is live music.
Yes, Malioboro tourism is never crowded. Yesterday when Naomi came here, the atmosphere was exactly the same. Only, he did not have time to come here to take pictures with some ghost cosplay in Malioboro. Although she once lived in Jogja, Naomi rarely roamed Malioboro. In addition to work, he only inhabits the house, occasionally go to cafes, or often visit nightclubs such as when he was in Bali.
"Let me take the picture" Leonardo interrupted who came out of nowhere, because suddenly the man appeared from Naomi's left side. The girl who received a helping hand from Leonardo also looked at Naomi.
"He's my friend" Naomi replied and nodded. The girl gave Naomi's phone to Leonardo. "Thank you so much and I'm so sorry that I'm interrupting your time."
"Sama-sama, Brother. Excuse me, first, yes, sister!"
"Thank you!" naomi exclaimed as she floated a wave with her two hands. "Be careful!" the ideal that the sweet woman replied with a wave of hands. Now his gaze fell on Leonardo who stood before him while carrying his mobile phone. "Why did you come here?! Just disturb!"
"Don't pretend to be angry, I know you're happy that I came with you." Just wanted to argue because her mouth was open, Naomi got a shitty balsan. "Of course, don't be noisy! Just style!"
"I want a photo, you're the one who's excited!" spray Naomi and glance at the pocong on the right side by folding her hands in front of her chest. "It has to be what you said, Nard! I don't want to know, the results have to be good!"
"How noisy you are, just look at it later." Seeing two people who were fighting, the pocong so-called events can only smile in silence. He watches only Leonardo and Naomi who fuss over trivial problems. "Look, the ghost next to you is so hot that you see it noisy," said Leonardo who increasingly muddy Naomi's mood. But, this time Naomi did not argue anymore, she instead changed the pose by closing her face half while glancing again at the ghost of a fake pocong on her right side. "It's over, done."
On that cold but tense night, Naomi walked on the sidewalk with her chest beating quite fast. In the pedestrian for all lovers of Malioboro atmosphere, everything is relaxed while chatting. Only Naomi speaks a thousand languages in Leonardo's hand. "Why are you quiet?" asked the man who kept Naomi in his sight, straight ahead. "You're enjoying your ex's hand?" seductive Leonardo continues to try to make the woman feel ashamed. "Is it still as warm as it used to be for you?"
"You should be ashamed. Why are you just now speaking out? Look, your face is red." Leonardo said it while chuckling, typical like a person mocking his interlocutor. "You enjoying this kind of atmosphere?" leonardo asked in an understatement. "Like school children alone," he added, which made Naomi suddenly release her hand grip with a very rough.
"You took me carelessly, and you mocked me yourself. It's so weird of you, Nard! You've changed." Naomi chose to walk alone. Fortunately because the sidewalk is very crowded by pedestrians, some people are not too focused on the surrounding, but rather prioritize their closeness to friends and partners.
"Already changed?" leonardo asked himself. "That means you've been watching my attitude all this time" he added, swinging his legs to catch up with Naomi. "There's still a lot I have to dig out about you being now covered up. Or actually, you've been wearing a mask all this time?" Only those questions led Leonardo to pursue Naomi. It was for the sake of his struggle to get Brielle's heart. "Based on the ex, if it wasn't for Brielle, I wouldn't have chased you like this." Leonardo walked quickly to catch up with Naomi who also accelerated his footsteps. "WAIT, NAOMI! DON'T BE MAD, BABY!" leonardo's instantaneous shout was also a highlight on this pedestrian path.
Naomi who heard Leonardo's screams could not help but widen her eyes. He looked over and stopped automatically. His legs were like getting a spell when the word call for him was spoken again on the lips of his ex-lover. However, his treatment afterwards made Leonardo frown. "There's no way she loves you!" naomi's strangulation resuscitated herself while slapping her right and left cheeks repeatedly in turn.
In the other city, Leonathan is not tired of thinking about his beloved woman and his son. Today Leonathan can be thankful who is truly grateful to his Creator. Because he is still given the opportunity to play with Elnathan and gradually he is sure to win the heart of Brielle again.
The man was sitting on the living room couch holding Elnathan singing. The three-year-old boy was watching a cartoon show from his father's device. There is a train cartoon film that became one of his favorite spectacles in addition to a cartoon film about car racing.
"El want this, Om!" he yelled at the train that became the main character in the film. "Blue train's! I want it!"
With a smile that was as wide as Elnathan's, the man pulled the corner of his lips and glanced towards the kitchen for a moment before replying as he was a little wary if Brielle appeared all of a sudden. "Okay, I'll buy it for you."
"Holes! Funny!" he was excited and Leonathan looked back at the kitchen.
Leonathan kissed the top of his son's head and put his lips close just above his handsome son's hair. "But can you call me Papa?" he whispered instantly, without hesitation and thought long.
"Papa?" tanya El looked up.
"Yes. El wants papa, right? I can be Papa El, you want to, El?" Just contact Elnathan nodded and changed his sitting position. He wakes up and hugs Leonathan by the neck after dealing with the best adult man he thinks. Only tears and a tight hug were given to answer his biological father's question.
