Pak Eko's question that makes Asti more worried “ Now, the person where Dik?”
Tomi who actually has been standing in the living room for a long time waiting for the opportunity to join the terrace, felt that was the opportunity he was waiting for when he heard Mr. Eko's question earlier.
“I'm here, Mr Eko!” He said while out carrying a tray containing two glasses of syrup and nuts earlier.
“Good evening, Sir!”
“Good evening..” Pak Eko replied reluctantly.
Suddenly his excitement saw Asti in the house earlier, yawning away.
For a long time he heard the name Tomi associated with Asti, the man did not like Tomi.
“It just so happened that I made two glasses of iced syrup, sir."
First one for Bu Asti. But because Mr. Eko came, this drink is for you only.
Let me make it again for Bu Asti!” said Tomi again. He tries to be reasonable and calm in order to maintain Asti's feelings.
Though he would bet that Mr. Eko does not like to see his presence in this house.
“No need!” Asti interrupts. “I'm not haus”
“Then, yes already I just want to help Mom just”
“Thanks!”
Pak Eko caught Asti then looked at Tomi, alternating.
“Do Dik Asti not have a housekeeper?” tanyanya.
“Or other Dik Asti family?”
“All gone, Mas.Just have me at home.” Asti's voice stopped when he realized that his words could cause conjectures in Eko's head.
Tom knows that. He felt sorry to see the innocent girl so quickly he intervened to help her.
“That's Mr. Eko why when Bu Asti made a drink for me, I quickly passed his job.
It would not be nice if I as a student was served by his lecturer,” he said.
"Here it is, Asti tried to smile even though with great difficulty. “Now please drink the syrup water. Come Mas Eko” said the beautiful girl.
To neutralize the dangerous atmosphere, Tomi immediately inhales the ice in her syrup.
Mr. Ako who actually felt not thirsty, took the glass in front of him and inhaled the contents.
“Kangnya Mas.. sorry, there are only nuts..” Asti said again.
His cheeks suddenly turned red when he remembered the bad beans that scattered on the table had become because of the extraordinary experience he had just experienced with Tomi.
Fortunately, Mr. Eko did not pay attention even though Tomi with his careful eyes caught the change in the face of the lady of the house.
His heart became warm all of a sudden. And it brings out a sense of compassion for the girl he loves.
His presence between him and Mr. Eko must have made him feel awry.
Ever since Tomi felt how loving Asti was when she was in his arms and how much of a kiss she received back from the girl, she felt her struggle all along, especially his struggle to grab the attention of the girl from Pak Eko, has shown an encouraging result.
Therefore, he is no longer too anxious and afraid that Asti fell into the arms of Mr. Eko.
Then, after sipping the ice syrup again, Tomi saw his watch.
“Bu Asti, Mr. Tomi. I think my business here is done,” he said later.
So, I asked to step down first. Thanks for the help of Asti. And sorry also I have interrupted Mom” break time
“It's okay..” that's all Asti can say.
“Hopefully if I have difficulty in my task later, Mom is still willing to help me back”
“Iya”
Tomi then smiled sweetly towards Asti and then towards Pak Eko.
“Nah, Bu Asti and Mr. Eko. And happy evening!” said later.
“Happy evening!” Asti and Mr. Eko jointly returned Tomi's greeting earlier.
With the departure of Tomi earlier, Asti thought that the departure of Tomi would certainly relax the pressing atmosphere that began to feel in that place.
It even felt like he was losing his grip!
While chatting with Mr. Eko, Asti felt lonely and unfocused.
Asti got up from his seat and turned on his porch light because it was dark.
Mr. Eko who is still speaking despite the words in response by Asti he still tries to continue his conversation.
Asti sat back and looked at the white rose that was filling the tree.
It was so beautiful that the light of the terrace lights that had just been turned on. Without Asti realizing it he entered the daydream.
She loves roses in addition to jasmine and other flowers.
But roses are her favorite. Any rose has no shame. It is only by chance that in between, the roses, the white roses are the ones that never stop flowering.
But despite this, white roses are her favorite. Tomi once sent her a white rose in a series so beautiful, a white rose then became something different.
Every eye saw his white rose, every time he remembered Tomi. Especially now when he stared at the white rose.
He recalled a thrilling experience in the kitchen not long ago.
Truly dead, she could never hold herself back, why her anger, aggravation and resentment towards Tomi could just disappear when the man kissed her.
Even when the man just held his hand. It was a very dangerous situation he was facing.
He did not want to tie the strings of feeling with anyone at this moment. Especially with Tomi, his own student.
Moreover, the student was not among the outstanding students.
If anyone knew that there was anything between him and Tomi, there would be a crowd on campus.
I don't know where his face will be hidden from the gaze of the lecturers and from the students.
“How Dik Asti, Are you ready?”
mr. Eko's voice suddenly sounded, entering Asti's ear and breaking his daydream earlier.
“Watch a movie with you?” asti asked as she turned her eyes away from the white rose towards Pak Eko.
“Yes. There is a great movie!”
“Not that I refuse you, but Mas will see for myself I'm waiting for home! asti Sahut.
“But I want to be invited by my parents and aunt, I don't want to go with them”
“Alright then. There is still another time,” said Mr. Eko held back his disappointment.
“Do you think that I take you for a walk just to look at another atmosphere?”
“Hopefully, Mas. It depends on the condition and the situation!” Asti told me the truth.
Mr. Eko looked at Asti with a gaze that contained curiosity. The naked eyes showed his feelings.
“I've been here many times, Dek Asti. But you're always not home!” said later.
“May I know what your departure has to do with someone?”
“Someone? Who do you mean, Mas?
“Yeah, with someone special of course”
“Why did you ask, Mas?”
“I mean, if you already have someone special, I won't take you away!”
Asti held his breath for a while. The man began to open his heart.
It is very desirable that he said that he already has someone who is special to answer Mr. Eko's question earlier.
But he knew very well that one day Mr. Eko who was very concerned about him having a working relationship with him would see that the answer was a lie.
However, if he says he does not have a special friend, it is likely that the man will more often try to approach him.
It's so hard. But Mr. Eko's question must be answered as well. The man was waiting for it.
“Special friend as lover, you mean Mas?”
Asti tried to find the right answer to Pak Eko so that there was no more questions and not also give him hope, Asti who felt increasingly confused by the situation he was facing at this time. Not yet broken his thinking about Tomi, came again this Mr. Eko, in his mind.
