Sexy Bodyguard Jack
Too Sweet

Trying not to look or seem tacky, that's what I buried in myself when Bang Jack took me to Discovery Shopping Mall, one of the largest and most complete malls in Kuta, Bali. I don't want to embarrass myself much less embarrass Bang Jack. However, as much as I try to be ordinary, there are still obstacles. This tacky country girl was afraid to climb the escalator stairs. I mean it's because for the first time I used a walking ladder. I was confused and afraid of being wrong when I stepped foot, and when I whispered that to Bang Jack, he giggled instead.

"Don't be afraid, my dear. Just move your legs as quietly as possible" he said as we stood in front of the escalator stairs. "Make sure your feet are in the middle of the palm of the ladder." He pointed to the part he meant. "Don't step on that part of the line, otherwise you'll fall. Understood?"

I'm nodding. I looked carefully at the people who had just climbed the escalator stairs as an example and adjusted it to the explanation that had been spoken by Bang Jack. "I think I can" I said. "Come, let's try."

"I'll stand on the side of the stairs, and you just hold on to me. I'm where you hold on, aren't I?"

Ah, Jack Bang. The bodyguard of the gombal. Under these circumstances he still had time to sweeten me. Although it's true, he's where I hold on. The solid hand that replaced my father's two hands.

"All right, I get it" I said.

Well, Bang Jack is taking me closer. "Remember, walk away relaxed. Don't jump, okay?"

"Em." I nodded, and we stepped.

Aaaaah. I deg-degan, you know!

I held Bang Jack's hand tight because I was afraid of falling. Let her laugh and almost get knocked over by my ridiculous reaction. I still won't let go of his hand. What matters is that I'm safe.

"Remember, getting to the top later step casually. Don't jump."

Ahaha! Norak, aye....

But it worked. We got to the 2nd floor and climbed the escalator stairs again to the 3rd floor. Bang Jack took me to the electronics store.

"What brand do you like?" tanyakanya.

"Would you buy me a cell phone?"

"Yes, honey...."

"No need, brother. It's expensive."

"How do I call you when I'm gone? Through telepathy?"

I grin. Embarrassed creation.

"You need-not, not you, but me. I need you to have a cell phone so I can monitor you when I'm away from you, or I won't be able to calm down and always worry about your situation. You gotit?"

Again, I grin super wide.

"It has. Don't protest too much and don't take any more. Just think of me. Okay?"

I nodded my head and no longer denied it. He knows what's best for me.

"So, what brand do you want?"

"Whatever. Anything can."

"Pick dong, honey...."

"I don't know. Where do I know about cell phones. Kan-"

"Shhh...." His finger was on my lips. "sorry. I understand," he said, nodding. "Let me choose."

"That's what?" I asked, pointing at the thing I meant.

Bang Jack followed my index finger. "That's called a tablet" he said. "A kind of cell phone too."

"Oh." I'm nodding.

"You want that?"

"Eh?"

"If you want to say yes, don't hesitate."

But I didn't say yes. I just nodded with a smile. I think it must be fun to use that super-wide advanced thing. I let Bang Jack call the store employee, talk about it, then transact: 2 units of smart phone he bought for me and I was confused.

"You need a cell phone to take my call. If you use a tablet it will be difficult," he explained.

I'm nodding. Got it. "So both for me? That's very kind, my brother. I'll be good. Thanks...."

Sweetly, Bang Jack stroked my head. He smiled happily and then said quietly in front of my face, "Let me show you something better."

"Abang..," I cried. He's making me nervous.

And as usual, Bang Jack laughed until chuckling.

"Basic naughty!"

"It's okay, dong. The bad will only be for you."

"I want to marry you. Only then can I judge your seriousness."

Bang Jack nodded. "I understand," he said.

"You don't understand completely" I said, then I spoke more slowly, "I'm not a clean ass or feel like a precious woman. I know I'm a nobody. Not someone precious, especially special. But I will never want to be the humiliated trash you can use and end up throwing it away. At least, if I get married, and if you get bored of me later, then you divorce me, I can at least hold the status of a widow, not just a girl who is not a virgin due to promiscuity. Life isn't always smooth, is it? I am very grateful this morning the electricity in the apartment was short. If not-"

Again, his finger was on my lips. "I understand. Very well understood. Okay?"

"But you don't judge me as a pretender to elevate my degrees, lo, yes. I didn't mean to...."

Bang Jack nodded again. "No. Not at all. I know, it's just about your honor as a woman. You don't want to be worthless trash until it's wasted. I get it, really. I'm sorry that my words often make you feel uncomfortable. I was just kidding. Seriously, I was just kidding. Sorry, huh?"

I'm nodding. "I'm sorry too. I shouldn't have talked about this in public. I. I just got carried away. I'm sorry."

Bang Jack nodded back. "Well, don't talk about it anymore, okay?" He took our groceries from the top of the storefront and grabbed my hand and took me in, we left from there.

Now, we are still among the electronic goods. Bang Jack invited me to buy a lamp that can be lit when the electricity goes out, as well as decorative lights such as flashlights that use battery power. Oh, my God, he's so considerate.

"There will be no more darkness around you" he said.

Really, this time he made me really feel overwhelmed. All this time in the village I was only accompanied by kerosene-fueled lamps. But now, this man gave me a beautiful decorative lamp, even without me asking for it. Although this is just a small concern in the eyes of others, but to me this is amazing. He's the only one who's willing to understand my phobia. "Thank you" I muttered. "I like it, and I'm overwhelmed. You're very considerate."

"I love you" she said suddenly, then the sturdy hand cupped my cheekbones and she looked at me lovingly. Obviously I can feel it. "Don't feel low anymore, yeah. For me you are precious, and you are the most special. I'll marry you early next month. I promise."

Oh my goodness, my shortness of breath was made. She's too sweet.
