The Love of Mr. Erick
GCTE | Chapter 88

"What are you trying to say? you're trying to instigate me?!" tuding Erick looked suspiciously.

"It's not so." Clarissa shook her head, her tears were already creek, unstoppable.

"I'm just warning you, Erickson. We're here for your treatment, right? why come back so soon."

Erick shook his head slowly. "I told you, I don't need any more medication or therapy, all I need is Elena."

"What made you turn out like this, Erickson?" Clarissa took one step back. "What?!" he shouted furiously, making Erick buyak surprised because of the change in his attitude.

Clarissa could not think clearly anymore, the fact that if her love still clapped one hand even with everything she did and the sacrifice for Erick, the man still could not open his heart. Instead, choose a woman who has obviously hurt him. Clarissa could not accept this fact.

"Tell me, has that changed your mind now?!"

"Because someone's words have opened my eyes, Clar." Erick replied with a flat look. The man is trying his best not to vent his emotions at this time, even though the attitude of the woman before him is now very annoying, but Erick still tries to respond casually.

"What he said to you, tell me as well." Clarissa challenged with her gaze.

"What did he say that made you change your attitude so quickly?" added again.

Not immediately answering, Erick just let out a long sigh, he stamped the base of his nose with a feeling of frustration.

"Clar, we've got this bad talk, we've got your emotions under control."

"Non-quality talk you say? it's important to me Erickson!" clarissa held the left shoulder of the man.

They looked at each other for a while, then Erick looked back.

"There was an old man I met on a park bench, he said what made me finally come to my senses" Erick said, repeating what James had said, the old geezer who was probably a messenger from God to resuscitate her, said in front of Clarissa.

"Never waste someone who is now beside you ... " Clarissa came to a conclusion at the end of Erick's sentence.

The woman exhaled a rough breath, shaking weakly. "But I've always been next to you Erickson, even to this day. Are you unaware of my presence as well, instead of just remembering Elena in your mind. Am I worthless to you, Erickson?!"

"I appreciate your every effort, Clar. I'm so grateful that I've always been there for my worst moments. But try to understand .. I can't return your feelings, I just think of you as a little sister, just like Mona, you guys are just as important to me," erick said at length trying to give understanding to Clarissa.

Clarissa chuckled. Brak! he threw an object on the nightstand until it crashed into the wall.

"I don't need your thanks, I don't want you to equate me like your sister, all I want is your heart, Erickson! just your heart!"

Clarissa shrieked even louder, she suddenly rebelled and screamed hysterically.

Erick immediately approached her, Clarissa turned sobbing.

"You evil Erickson, you cruel!" the woman banged on Erick's chest, venting her sadness as well as anger.

"Listen to me Clar." Erick tries to hold back, the woman refuses to be touched by him.

"Clarissa!" this time Erick released to raise his voice.

"Listen to me, please!" this time her baritone voice sounded pressured, both Erick's big hands each cupped Clarissa's face rubbing the woman's forehead.

"Love can't force Clar, try to understand that!" Erick stared hard, the eyes of the two clashed with each other.

"I just think of you as a little brother I love, nothing more. Don't just stick to a guy like me, you can get a better guy, who will love you so much someday." Erick nodded his head steadily, looking into Clarissa's eyes with confidence in the words she had spoken.

While Clarissa involuntarily regulated her breathing, she gulped with great difficulty. His mind tried to accept what Erick said even though he thought it was very difficult.

The woman begins to curse herself, she craves Erick so much, a figure that has always been in her memory since childhood, a cold but warm man inside. Clarissa was very envious of Elena, Why wasn't she the one in the girl's position? whyyy?!

"Stupid, I love you too much, Erickson."

Erick said no more, then quickly took his suitcase, pulled his handle and towed it as he walked away, leaving Clarissa who began to sit up with one tear after another wet her cheek.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Elsewhere, Elena was busy in the pantry, struggling in pans and pans. Along with Candra who accompanied him cooking. In this villa only he and Jaka's family lived in a room at the end of the villa, as a guard Pak Jaka must always stand by and be ready for that is why the man also invited his wife and child to stay at the end of the villa that has been prepared Marvin.

Now when the villa was occupied by Elena for an undetermined time, Candra, Jaka's wife and daughter moved to the main villa to accompany Elena during her stay here.

Elena is now opening a package of groceries containing ingredients to make a cake that she has not touched since.

"Miss Elena wants to do something?" mbok Can who had been listening to join, after cleaning the dirty dishes finished their meal.

"Yes mbok. I want to try making a cake" said Elena, looking at the woman, smiling.

"Well, may I help non?" mbok can.

"Of course." Elena further developed her smile.

After being ready with the ingredients on the table as well as the mixer and other necessary equipment, Elena was ready to execute. He wears an apron and ties a knot of his long hair.

This time he decided to create cookies with recipes that he had found on the google browser website.

Mbok Can was in charge of helping her out a little. They chatted and joked between the activities of making the cake.

An hour later.

Ting! the clang of the oven marked cookies are ripe reads, Elena and Mbok Can who have been waiting ever since also put on a radiant face.

Wearing wide gloves, Elena carefully picked up a baking sheet containing matcha cookies, her favorite taste.

"Well, the color is so pretty non." praise Mbok Can.

"It must be good too."

Elena smiled at her hearing, after being decorated by matcha powder, and had been in silence for a while. He allowed Mbok Can to try it.

"Emm .. mantle! this is really non!" exclaim mbok Can gave two thumbs to Elena after tasting the matcha cookies.

Elena laughed at the reaction of the middle-aged woman.

"Try to make a non business, will definitely sell well. Moreover, the color is beautiful gini, children also like."

Hearing Can's suggestion, Elena contemplated trying to think again.

Is correct. There is still his savings all this time stored in the bank. This is the time to rise again from the fall. Creating a cake shop might be the solution.
