The Trust In Timing
Let it hurt then let it go
"May?" Alora saw her mother as soon as she entered the kitchen which seemed to be busy cooking
"Are you hungry?" Asked her mother as soon as Alora approached her, Alora shook her head
"Mama's still a long time?"
"It'll be ripe soon, just wait a minute huh" Alora nodded
"Can Alora help you?"
"No need, you wait in the living room only later mama call if it is ready" Alora nodded then poured mineral water into the glass she then returned to her room after seeing the living room that looked crowded by her cousin and uncle. There was something she had to think about carefully before telling her mother because Alora chose to wait in her room while playing on her phone, checking some messages and reading a book on her desk. After a few minutes, a person knocked on Alora's door and her mother's face appeared from behind the door
"Let's eat"
"Mahs...I have something to talk about"
"Now?" Alora nodded
"Can we talk about it after the meal?" After thinking Alora nodded again it might be better if her entire family were the thing that Alora was about to talk about
"Let's eat" Alora immediately stood up and approached her mother, they then went down to the 1st floor together to go to the dining room and there had been gathered all her family members, her uncles and aunts, and her family members, her grandmother and some of her cousins, they accidentally gather to eat together at Alora's house. They then eat their food while occasionally telling jokes until they feel full and start cleaning the dining table
"There's something I want to talk about" Alora said, making her mother and aunt stop cleaning the dining table
"There...what's lora?" His uncle asked after everyone suddenly fell silent
"Well, let's sit down let's talk about everything with uncle"
"Lora... What's wrong? Don't scare the mother!" His mother looks agitated but still complies and sits next to Alora
"This is great news" mah"
"really?" Alora nodded confidently
"Well, uncle, aunt, grandma... The ground was already sold" Alora smiled while they looked surprised by Alora's statement
"Well, the land has been sold and we can settle all debts2 father" Alora holds her mother's hand.
"Really?" His mother looks incredulous and looks bad
"Emm, last week. I came home to take care of all this and of course I'm gonna need uncle's help"
"Uncle will help!"
"Sold at what price?"
"As we expect mah, 1 M. Enough to pay off all my debts"
"Finally, thank you dear!" Alora's mother hugged Alora
"Mahs... Tomorrow I'm the same uncle will take care of everything, me and uncle will try to solve it as best as possible. After everything is done I will pick up ade from Bandung, she can stay with mama again without fear and worry so..." Alora stopped, her chest suddenly felt tight
"So... Can we get all those wounds off now?" Alora held her mother's hand tighter
"Can we forgive father and release him calmly? Can we stop looking for the reason behind all the previous father's actions? Can we start all over again? Without a father also without the wounds he left behind?"
"Iora..."
"Well, remembering that wound will only make us more hurt. Can we take that wound away? Isn't it the right time? After 2 years please help me to let go of my father's departure in peace. Help me to disappear claustrophobic, disappointed, also vengeful that continues to haunt me for 2 years. Please mah..yah?" Alora pleads with her mother, she knows it won't be easy especially for her mother but she has to be brave, she has to be strong, she has to make her family life better
"Alora's right, sister" her uncle looked at Alora's mother
"True, there is no point in continuing to live in the past let alone continue to dig into the past" his grandmother began to agree
"Sister... Let's start everything from the beginning. With all the injuries left, I will try my best to help Alora solve all the problems after that let's start again calmly, without a grudge that we don't even know the reason for" His uncle tried to persuade Alora's mother
"Mahs... There was me and Ade" Alora looked into her mother's eyes
"Emm, let's try!" His mother smiled and immediately hugged Alora

"Aksan's afternoon" Sapa Cassie so successfully pursued Aksan's steps
"Sore, Shh. Right?" Aksan observed Cassie's smiling face looking elated
"really?"
"Today you keep smiling"
"Well! Aksan's sister is watching me?"
"Ehem, the entire room can be clearly seen from my room!"
"Oh yes!" Cassie agreed to Aksan's reasoning
"Wanna go home?"
"Hmm, can you have a minute?" Aksan pointed at himself after hearing Cassie's request for not being sure of her intentions
"Emm, Aksan's time is 15 minutes or 10 minutes. Can you?"
"Now?" Cassie nodded
"Okay, promise nothing more!"
"OK, where?"
"Lobby cafe?"
"okay!" After agreeing they then rushed to the elevator and before long the elevator opened, they immediately entered the elevator. They have now arrived at the lobby and then they rushed to the cafe, ordered 2 cups of coffee at the cashier and then brought it to an empty table in the right corner, a bit away from the people who have been in the cafe first
"What's wrong? Is your ex bothering you again?"
"It's just that he shouldn't dare to bother me anymore and also Aksan's brother" Cassie smiled, hearing that of course Aksan was relieved but also felt curious
"Something happened?"
"I fought him"
"meaning?"
"I warned him not to bother us anymore"
"And he agrees?"
"Not at first because it set a trap. I recorded our conversation and recorded the incident when he stalked me with evidence that I threatened him" Cassie told Aksan
"Cassie... Are you sure he won't do anything?" Aksan was worried now
"Calm down, brother! He's a coward, I assure you he won't dare to harass us again"
"But..."
"Sir Aksan. Thank you so much for helping me and because my problems have been finished from now on Aksan's brother does not need to pretend anymore to be my girlfriend and I think now I am becoming more courageous also aware that that son of a bitch doesn't deserve me"
"All right! That sounds better"
"Again thanks for helping me all this time and I'm sorry I still can't help Aksan's brother"
"Help back? Meanin?"
"As before helping Aksan to get close to Alora because as Aksan knows, Alora has a boyfriend"
"Heuhh.. You're this! Who says I still want to get close to Alora?!"
"So Aksan's brother has given up?"
"Forced to give up anyways Allen looks fit for Alora"
"Really! That was the right decision! But it turns out that Aksan's brother is quite unfaithful" Cassie pranks Aksan
"Not faithful you say?"
"Emm, it's only been a few weeks that Alora's got Aksan's boyfriend already forgotten about her"
"Shhh... isn't 1 year more enough to prove my loyalty?!" Aksan feels disgruntled by Cassie's accusations and tries to remind Cassie
"Ahh right! Aksan's sister has liked Alora since a year ago, since Alora first worked here"
"Is that enough?!"
"Hmm, that's enough!" Cassie smiled, of course she could not take long to judge Aksan
"Come.I'll drive you home!"
"No, brother! I can do it myself"
"Why did I take you"
"Father me alone"
"Really?"
"Really! Besides I've taken brother 15 minutes I can't possibly add anymore"
"Okay then! Be careful when you get home!"
"Okay, brother Aksan be careful too!"
"Oh yeah.. If there's anything you don't hesitate to ask for help, Okay?"
"Shh... But what if I can't bales again?"
"Cassie..."
"Hehehe..okay!"
"okay! Nye"
"Bye bye" After saying goodbye Aksan immediately left, today he had an appointment with his sister while Cassie also immediately rushed home, as she usually walked to the busway stop, and she was on her way to the busway stop, wait a few minutes then take the busway, and stop at the usual stop. Cassie walks alone, the road to her hostel tonight seems lonely and without Cassie noticing someone following her from behind, her footsteps drew closer and when Cassie realized it she was too late because the man had already drugged Cassie with the handkerchief she was carrying
