The Love Me For 100 Days
Childhood
**day to 89**
That morning, Meira could not sleep quietly and woke up restless. Last night he said hello to Ervin But he did not respond at all and just left.
“huhh.. It's possible that he's in a hurry to somewhere.” Mumbled Meira.
Meira takes her clothes from the closet and suddenly, something falls out of her pocket.
“oh..? this is kan.”
An old pocket watch that Arva had given him back then.he remembered that Arva told him to look inside the watch. With curiosity followed, Meira decides to take him to work
While walking, he kept daydreaming and thinking about the clock. To the extent that he had unknowingly bumped into people while walking.
“hei miss ! watch your step !”
“iya sir sorry. I'm sorry.” said Meira, bowing her head to the old man.
After getting up and standing up, Meira reached into her pocket and panicked when she found out her pocket watch was missing. He quickly walked down the street and found it in the corner of a shop and was damaged by being trampled by many people.
However, that was where he learned the truth about the old pocket watch. Meira immediately ran to her workplace quickly. After a while, he had already reached there and met Ervin already tidying up the equipment before the store opened.
“oh..? boss, what are you running like.?” ask Raka.
Meira was still panting with her breath and answered the question by showing the old pocket watch. Raka knew that Meira was going to do this because last night, Arva told her about Meira and the clock.
“if tomorrow he knows something, tell him you don't know and I can't see him until the 50”th day
“ap..what!? where are you going..? then, what if I'm in trouble..?
hhe..hey ! basic ! aisshh..how is this.?” exclaiming Raka who saw Arva disappear quickly after saying so to him.
Raka is still upset and curious why Arva left for so long. And finally, Meira takes him to sit down and talk about the clock, but, before that, she picks up an old notebook from inside her office and shows him an old photo.
“Ervin, see photos here. Isn't it very similar to the photo in this old pocket watch.?” ask Meira.
Raka looks at a picture of a boy inside the watch, and she compares it to the one that Meira took when Meira was a child playing on the beach with several people who were photographed. There, behind Meira's little photo, was a photo of a boy who looked a lot like the one in the old clock.
“what could he possibly be the same man.?” ask Meira.
Raka just fell silent by raising her shoulders while explaining that she herself did not know about it. Meira was made to remember back then.
“do you feel, if this kid looks a lot like Arva.?”
Raka is shocked by Meira's perception of it, but, it could have been Arva. But, if Meira survived the weather and the storm at that time, would the Arva-like boy survive..? the question in Raka's heart continued to ring in her mind. Maybe Meira had something to do with Arva the angel of death.
“Ervin, can I contact him..? you're his friend. Can I meet him.?”
“ehm.it. Can't.” Raka said as she stood up and turned her body away from Meira.
“eh.?! Why..? did she go somewhere..?” ask Meira.
“iya.she said, she went somewhere and for quite a long time.”
Raka immediately left there and did not want to linger about Arva with Meira. He was worried that he would be caught lying.
Raka heads to the kitchen and prepares some orders while Meira has also entered her office and realizes that Ervin's attitude is very different today with last night. The thought was immediately cleared and he went back to work on his order.
The afternoon is getting colder in this snow season, but, the store is getting longer, the more crowded with visitors who order some warm bread and warm drinks. That made Meira think to see the situation around her visitors.
And sure enough, his shop was really busy with his workers pacing around to deliver orders.
“ya golly..! I am why..?
I even relax and let them fuss.” Mumbled Meira who then stood at the cash register to help the queue that boomed.
A moment later, the situation was under control and the anti-visitor was reduced. While Meira was still focused on her work, something broke her focus and that she had not expected before.
“see uncle will turn this into an animal you like.taraa !”
How shocked Meira was to see Ervin amusing the children with origami paper. He suddenly remembered Raka's paper origami as well, Arva's magic trick.
“nona ! what's wrong with you ..? we are currently queuing !”
“oh..! Excuse me. Ii'm sorry. Please, price.”
Meira returns from her daydream and does her job. At that moment, Raka looked at Meira while smiling at him. Raka doesn't know that what she's doing is causing more confusion in Meira.
Seriate..
