Shean & Jenny
Raining
The more afternoon, the air was getting stuffy, I walked down the office area on the border of the central and southern city. Lively in the afternoon before evening, then the tares of vehicles increasingly crowded the two highway lane currents.
My eyes were fixed on the ramen shop not far from Jenny's office. I better fill my stomach, this afternoon I did not have time to eat and had to rush to hand over important files.
A long queue was seen from the entrance, hesitating to order a meal here. Should I find somewhere else?. Because I have been waiting in line, I should be patient just waiting my turn.
"Please.. What do you want to order, sir." asked a restaurant waitress.
"I ordered miso soup ramen, chicken katsu topings and hot ocha.
"Please wait for the order, sir". the attitude is friendly and to the point, quick without further ado. after paying at the cashier I went to the empty table by the large glass window, clearly visible outside with a frenzy in the afternoon.
Ramen miso sauce with the addition of chicken katsu and warm tea that I ordered was served on the table. Luxury dishes that I do not always eat. I was forced to buy with a pocket of 200 thousand rupiah, the same nominal with my pocket money for 2 days.
I rarely enjoy food like this. For me, if you want to snack enough to buy meatball noodles or chicken noodles Pakde Kumis my subscription in the complex near the house. It tastes better than the ramen I'm eating right now and it's a lot cheaper.
As a man who has no family, I have to save money and that is why more time is spent alone, sometimes accompanied by Erik, my only friend who I considered to be my brother.
The rest I used to pass the time by reading books or listening to music, rarely for a walk. Even during work I do not share much with work friends like most people.
After my working hours I always go straight home, continue my research after that sleep and wake up in the morning, a very mediocre routine.
Now the life I live starts to change, like an injection of adrenaline, everything I try to achieve, both research with Erik, Erik, learn to later continue S2 next month and of course struggling with the legacy of my great-grandfather.
The change I've experienced since meeting Jenny, it seems like she's been hard pulling me into her colorful world. There is no boredom when with him, joking, talking until you forget time, or just sitting on the bench of the park after returning from the office.
The days feel more beautiful, there is a meaning that I find more and more every day with him, maybe that's the love that I can not deny his arrival.
I'm happy with him.
The phone ringer woke me from a long daydream, not feeling it was almost 6 p.m. Jenny called and asked me to meet in her office lobby, rushing me to come so she wouldn't wait long.
"We're going home with your bike, yeah.." Pintanya.
"Ready princess!" I replied firmly while chuckling to see him blush in embarrassment. We also shot away from the office center and straight up to South Jakarta.
At the crossroads to his apartment he told me to turn the other way, and stopped when he got to a restaurant that serves seafood.
"Let's go.. I'm so hungry". He took my hand and entered the restaurant. The waiter led us to an empty table reserved for two people with a fairly large square table.
After choosing the food to be eaten, we talked about the events today that make Jenny stressed and resigned if the cooperation contract is canceled by the customer. Lucky I stopped by the cafe Atelier who actually wanted to coffee instead had to scramble on the road to return his files left in the cafe.
"Thank you so much baby for today, without you, it looks like I could be ashamed for a lifetime of failing to contract due to my own carelessness". He said at length thanking me.
"You'd better thank Sudirman, if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't know about the file either".
"Haha.. True too, later I will take me there again sometime yes.
Jenny looks very greedy eating the dish, there are lobsters and grouper fish to burn. Every now and then I glanced at her enjoying the dinner menu, Funny like not the Jenny I imagined before.
"Oh yes, you will stay in the apartment". He invited me to stay but I was still hesitant to be alone in an apartment that big.
"Why really? I can go straight home after dropping you off, after all I'm used to going home at night.
"Come on... Tomorrow I'm off, miss your cooking..".
"Please, baby, yes, yes." whine like a child.
...----------------...
It was raining heavily that Jenny and I, who were just in the restaurant parking lot, were drenched when they were about to turn on the motor to her apartment.
"How's this. Let's go back inside" Invite me but rejected by Jenny because it's wet she asked directly to her apartment.
"Yeah!! It's the first time I've rained like this". He hugged me tightly in the rain driving through the cold and heavy rain, the view was a little blurry.
Slowly I crossed the lonely road because it was raining not many vehicles dare to pass.
Arriving at the apartment, my whole body was wet as well as Jenny, the curves in her body became increasingly visible, and was unable to glance at her.
"Why are you ?" ask her astonishment.
"none".
"You have a shirt I can wear, right?.." Want to wash the body immediately, afraid it will make us both sick.
"There was a moment I prepared" he came back from his room and brought a new towel, shirt and shorts made of cotton knee-length cream. It was embarrassing to wear this type of clothing but there was no choice but to wear it.
Finished beating me to the balcony of his apartment, sitting on the bench, even though there was a little splash of rain no matter what, I wanted to enjoy the coffee I just brewed and lit a cigarette.
"Honey.. Why's it outside, let's go in.." Bring along.
"I'm still smoking, later" I replied.
He came shortly. Jenny was wearing a long, smooth white pajama shirt made of silk and there was a knot of rope on her waist making her curves look beautiful and seductive.
"It was the first time I was raining like this" Jenny opened a chat about her first experience riding a raining motorbike through the highway.
"Yes.. I'm sorry you're soaking wet for riding a motorcycle".
"It feels fun.. Maybe because it's with you" he said gently, his face red blushing maybe he was embarrassed by what he just said.
"Thank God you enjoyed it".
The rain will not be seen to stop, the whirring of the water is getting louder every second, strong winds and thunderbolts of lightning struck continuously like a war drum. But so did not make him to taku, he hugged his arms tighter and put his body in my arms, feeling warm and comfortable.
"May I always be your most comfortable place wherever we are" I said softly and tightened my arms to him.
