Along the way, Jana's mouth didn't stop muttering. Voicing his frustration with everything he could say. The woman was in a bad mood this morning, until when someone caught her attention.
Jana's heart was racing, as she got off the motor. Still holding his helmet, his eyes could not be seen the man who walked back and forth in front of the minimarket franchise where he worked.
As if stunned, Jana's mouth just gaped. If only it was night, Jana was sure there would be mosquitoes coming in and making her choke.
Neutralizing his wild-beating heartbeat, Jana breathed in his breath many times. He tried to be calm when he approached the man. But what power, it seems his body is contrary to his logic. If the logic wants Jana to be calm and look beautiful, now Jana's body even slightly trembling because of nervousness.
"Hello, Mister, can I help you?" ask Jana in English as she remembers.
The man was blond, his skin too white if juxtaposed with Javanese. Even his height exceeded the average height of the man Jana had met. And when Jana looked at the man's face, the man had blue eyes like the sky–so clear as if carrying Jana flew to wishan–and could be believed Jana, if the man was a Caucasian. Therefore, he ventured to ask in English, even if sober.
"Oh, hey, do you own this store?"
However, Jana was like slapped on a wave of coconut leaves. He did not expect, if the bule in front of him could speak Indonesian even though his words were still a little off. This made Jana grimace.
Quickly he nodded. "Yes, ah I don't mean." Jana nodded quickly nervously. "I'm just a worker here."
The bule nodded his head, with both hands against his waist. "When is this place open?"
Every speech that came out of the man's lips, made Jana fascinated. The thin lips at the top, and also the thick at the bottom of it so caught Jana's attention. And when the bule involuntarily wet his lips, in Jana's heart could not bear to not pounce on him.
"Hello, are you okay?"
Jana's daydreams fell out, when the bule asked again. The man even waved his hand on his face. And Jana just realized, the bule leaned towards her which made the distance between them only a few inches apart.
Jana blinked, taking a step back in panic. "I-I'm open yes," he answered nervously, still staring at the man before him.
Just as he turned to open the door, Jana took a deep breath. Next to his hand rubbed his chest at a glance, as if trying to calm his wild thumping heartbeat, like wanting to jump out of place. Jana shuddered, the man's charm was truly frightening. In fact, Jana can feel if she is currently in love at first sight.
The door opened, and Jana quickly went inside. Approach the cashier table, and turn on the monitor screen immediately. Then activate the air conditioning, so that the work place is cool.
Jana had just turned around, and found that the bule was already in front of the cashier's desk. Jana's eyes bulged wide, and again her heart felt like it wanted to jump out. "M-mister," call Jana nervously. "What do you need?"
"Don't call me mister, you can call me Joshua." The bule reached out with his charming smile.
This makes Jana feel happy, do not want to waste time, he quickly welcomed the hand of the bule–no, but Joshua– with enthusiasm. "My name is Jana .. Jana Arumika," she replied, mentioning her full name.
Joshua nodded, then let go of the hand. He seemed to be looking over here and there, looking around him with those sharp blue eyes.
For a moment, Jana shook her head again. Just stay in place like a fool who only notices one object among many things. And subconsciously, his lips continued to be interested in forming a smile that never faded.
Not finding what he was looking for, Joshua cleared his throat for a moment. Then turned to look at Jana and asked, "Is there canned beer here and cigarettes?"
Jana looked straight to the right and left. A second later he turned around to look back. "Sorry, Mister, I mean, Joshua. There are only cigarettes, and no beer. Uh, there is, but zero alcohol," Jana replied with a guilty look.
This makes Jana's body churn, wanting her to lung at Joshua to devour those sexy lips. Either got the courage from where, Jana instead thought about talking with her mother this morning.
"Em, Joshua, where do you live?" tanya Jana started the conversation so that the atmosphere did not feel silent between them.
"I'm staying at a hotel near here" Joshua replied, looking back at the exit.
Jana's eyes sparkled, hearing the word hotel, she was sure that the man was not an indiscriminate person. Jana thought, if Joshua is a rich man in his home country there.
"What ... do you have a wife, Joshua?" jana asked nervously, her hand gripping the edge of the table firmly. Really, the girl seemed to insist on luring Joshua even at their first meeting.
Joshua frowned, looked at Jana fixedly then laughed loudly. "I'm single, I don't even have a boyfriend" he replied, exhaling a long breath.
Jana's smile. "What were you looking for?" tanyanya diverted a little conversation.
"Oh, yeah, god, I forgot. Just give me a cigarette, then" said Joshua.
Jana swiftly picked up the cigarette Joshua wanted, and handed it to the man directly. "Here, don't pay. Think of it as our introduction," said Jana shyly, while tucking some of her hair behind her ears.
Joshua gasped, receiving the cigarette hesitating. "really?" tanyanya.
Seeing Jana nod, Joshua's smile seemed blurred. He leaned forward toward Jana. "Can I ask for water too?" her tanyanya whispered, in a seductive tone of voice.
"Of course, take everything you want. Let's just say this is our introductory gift," said Jana smiling widely. For the sake of captivating Joshua, he was willing to pay whatever the man would take.
Quickly, Joshua picked up some stuff. Drinks, ice cream, and also some snacks. In his heart, he was happy and he did not want to let go of Jana just like that.
"Oh, Jana, do you also have a lover?" ask Joshua. Who would have thought, that man also wanted to approach Jana for a certain purpose.
"No," replied Jana smiling shyly.
"Will you be my girlfriend?" joshua asked looking at Jana fixedly with a seductive look.
Jana gasped, to the point that her mouth was half open. A second later, he nodded quickly. "Girlfriend yes, I yes. Do you want to marry me too?"
Joshua was astonished, the heart only wanted to make Jana his lover. Why did the woman say she was married? Does Jana not know the meaning of his words? Joshua thought to wonder.
The man had just wanted to explain, when Jana suddenly circled the cashier table and approached him. Even without a sense of hesitation, Jana held her hand tightly.
"Come, I want to know you as my mom and dad."
And Joshua could not dwell, when Jana suddenly pulled him away from the minimarket franchise.
