THE NANNY
48. Honesty Niko
"What message do you want ?" bargain Niko.
"I'm a drink...Vanilla Latte's."
"OK"
Niko waved at the waiters, she gave a note of her order.
"In what order is this here Ko..?" ask Vita while taking out a cigarette.
"When did you smoke ?" Niko frowned. Didn't answer Vita's question.
"Since trying it, and I've been hooked." replied Vita while exhaling cigarette smoke from her lips. "You haven't answered my question, yet" Vita squinted her eyes at Niko.
"I've been here 2 days for work. Tomorrow morning return to Jakarta."
"Explain to me.." Niko leaned closer to the ribbon. "You divorced and moved here without telling me, why hmm ?"
"I forgot..." Vita chuckles to see Niko looking at her seriously.
"Oh came on Vit..you know I've stayed in Jakarta, why not ngabari..had not considered a friend yes ?" Niko looks upset.
"You know I'm divorced and moved here.that means you know and why didn't you meet me, comfort me, hmm ?" checkmate. Vita's words make Niko silent, misbehaving.
Waiters came to serve 2 glasses of drinks on the table, making their conversation pause.
"That's it. 'cause I want you to call me, who feels like I need you." answered Niko a little stuttered.
"Huftt.iya I'm sorry Ko, 3 years you went to make me forget that you have been in Indo again...." Vita chuckles at the annoyed Niko.
Niko sipped the Capucino in front of her. "I want to be honest 1 thing is the same you.Do you know why 3 years ago I went abroad without saying goodbye ?"
"That's because I love you, Vita Eliza." said Niko with a soft look and a smile.
Vita puts out a cigarette by pressing it on an ashtray. His gaze looked at Niko's bead of eyes trying to find out honestly or lie to her.... "You're kidding, right ?" tanyakanya.
Niko shook her head. "I'll honestly tell you everything, don't cut.after that it's up to what you think."
Vita seemed to nod her head.
"Since we were close friends at High School I've had more feelings, I love you. But looking at your usual attitude, I dare not reveal. Especially when you were dating Yosep, the basketball boy, and crying on my shoulder when you were cut off, made me even more sure that you only considered me a friend." Niko was still thinking about the past.
"When you're at the end of the class you're with Arya. Until the time you have worked, your relationship with Arya is getting closer and even planning a wedding. I feel like there is no hope of getting your heart. That's why I decided to leave when I saw you were happy to choose Arya.
"Why didn't you reveal it at the time ?" Vita frowned.
"Because I don't want us to be awkward, I know my love is clapping one hand" Niko said with a chuckle.
"Although far from you, at all times I always know how you are, even to this day when your former superiors break into the apartment !" Niko stared intently at Vita, to the extent that her newly gulped Vanilla Late choked in the throat.
Vita could not say anything, her eyes bulging in shock. His body stiffened and broke out in cold sweat. Didn't expect Niko to know that far about her. "Did Niko know what Edward and I were doing." - Inner Vita.
"Sweety.I dare to reveal everything now that you're single. Is there any hope for me, I still love you until this moment," Niko held Vita's hand full of feelings.
Silence surrounded the two, each drowning in a different feeling. Niko is relieved at the expression of love that she has been craving for years. Vita is shocked by the description of Niko's story, which is like a stalker, knows about the details of her.
"Give me some time Ko..."
...SERIATE...
