Mirages
Mia knows

JOY coffee shop, that's the name given by Mia and her husband for the place of business they built.

A coffee place is located in front of a famous University in the capital, where every day will always be crowded by students who gather together there.

The shop is divided into two areas, namely the indoor area in the front, and the out door area in the back garden. In the indoor area, it is divided into two floors, where the upper floor is only half of the entire area of the shop room. Brown and brick red dominate the couple's shop.

Many family photos are hanging in the cashier section. While there is a bulletin board on one side of the room, which is deliberately provided for visitors who want to leave their memories in that place, or just donate their polaroid photos. There are also many sticky notes attached there with a lot of messages intended for someone. The bulletin also became one of the main attractions of the hangout.

Then in the out door area, there are several tables, complete with chairs in the form of an elongated garden bench. Small, dimly lit decorative lights appear to hang on it, and the vine plants also beautify the atmosphere of the place.

This area is surrounded by an iron fence filled with vines that spread up and wrapped around the lamp support wire.

Mira, who happened to be there, looked amazed at her senior's place of business.

"Sister, okay also yes the shop," praised Mira after looking around the place of business together with Joy.

"It's a business, we've been pioneering for a long time, Mir. The heat of my pain is the same my husband built this business from scratch" said Mia who was in the kitchen located in the indoor area of the store.

Mira sits in front of a table, where baristas usually concoct customer-ordered coffee. While Joy, the little girl was back playing with her toys in one corner of the store.

"What's the heat, Mir?" tawar Mira is grinding coffee beans.

"Eh .. No, Brother. I don't drink coffee anymore. Hehehe ...," replied Mira.

"Lho ... why? I think yesterday when you met at the mall you also had a coffee," asked Mia.

"Ehm .. Well, now again want to reduce caffeine aja, brother. Hehehe ...," said Mira laughing stiffly.

Mia seems to stop the movement of her hand that is putting the results of the mill into the container.

"You still smoke?" asked Mia while continuing her activities.

"No, Brother. I want to do a healthy lifestyle again" replied Mira, with both hands propped up her chin.

"Well .. good. But, it is difficult to say that one habit," said Mia turned a glance towards Mira, and smiled.

The mother-of-one looked down again, and began to brew coffee for her husband.

"If it's alcohol, isn't it?" ask Mia again.

"I've been drinking for two weeks now, brother. It's hard, but I just want to be healthier" replied Mira.

"Ehm ... You still work at Mom Winda's place right?" asked Mia who was walking towards where her husband was, while bringing coffee.

He then went back to the kitchen, and made a drink for Mira.

"I've announced that I'm going out, but it's not official yet. You see, I have not given the ransom for Mom Winda," replied Mira.

"That means you don't work there anymore, do you?" ask Mia who keeps asking about Mira.

"No, brother. Since it was more than a month ago," replied Mira.

Mia then presents a glass of strawberry yogurth smoothy for Mira.

"drink. This is good for pregnant women," said Mia.

Mira immediately rounded her eyes, hearing the words of her senior.

"Ba ... how ...," asked Mira.

Mia walks around, comes out of the kitchen, and sits next to Mira. He rested his arms on the barista, and smiled at the junior.

"Mir, you are the only lady Mom Winda who cannot be said. You always defy everything you are told, even for trivial matters. But now, cigarettes, alcohol and even caffeine, you're avoiding yourself. There must be something important that you want to take care of," said Mia who made Mira speechless.

"In addition, your relationship with the man, it seems not an ordinary relationship, just like when you were with Thomas. I can see the love in your eyes, Mir. Eyes that are always cold, now look so warm," he added.

Mia stared fixedly at the face of the woman who was already like a sister to her.

"All right what I'm saying?" ask Mia to make sure.

"Why Brother ...," asked Mira.

"Can you know?" sela Mia's.

Mira nodded, saying yes.

"I'm a woman and I was in your position, Mir. I know how you feel now, especially if you remember our conversation the other day at the mall," said Mia.

"So, it's as easy as you guessed," said Mira smiled faintly.

"Did that man know?" ask Mia.

"Ehm .. He knows. More precisely just a few days ago know," said Mira.

The pregnant woman began to enjoy a drink made by Mia.

Ehm .. This is very fresh, inner Mira while tasting that yogurth smoothy.

"Then, does she want to marry you?" ask Mia again.

"Well, she promised to ask me a few more months" replied Mira.

"What about his parents?" mia's question, practically makes Mira go back to silence.

His hand that had been stirring the stainless straw had stopped because of the words of his senior.

Mia could understand, when she saw the look on Mira's face that looked grim.

"Did they reject you?" ask Mia.

Mira shakes.

"We haven't even told them" said Mira.

Now, Mia knew what the restlessness of the woman beside her was.

"Mir, I've already lost it to you. The background of our work, very difficult to accept by others, especially our future in-laws. But we must continue to believe in love. Because with love, we can go through everything with the people we love" Mia exclaimed.

Mira raised her head and looked at Mia. A faint smile was painted on the lips of the beautiful woman.

"I know, Brother. In fact, I have also prepared myself for the worst possibility, if later I have to be alone with this child. But that guy, he's been so attentive to us, and loves us, and he loves us" Mira said.

"Thank God" said Mia.

They also smile at each other. However, Mia's smile suddenly disappeared when her eyes caught the shadow of the person who had been watching her shop from outside the window.

"Sir, what's wrong?" asked Mira who saw the look on Mia's face turned tense.

He then tried to turn around and see what his senior brother was watching.

"Oh .. ehm .. no papa, really." Mia looked back at Mira and distracted the woman before her.

They talked again, with Mia occasionally watching the figure that was still lurking from inside the store.
