THE WOMAN (END)
•76

BEEFSTAR (Resto and Cafe)

I don't know what dreams led me to this situation, the anxiety and nervousness that pressed my heart chamber in turn made me even more unsettled.

I stared at the watch in my hand that showed at 1 o'clock in 15 minutes. Luckily, I was able to change my break time with Aisyah.

I squeezed my fingers nervously.

I looked around the restaurant, many people who seemed to be enjoying lunch there.they were certainly not from the ordinary, even the clothes they were wearing were also dominated by office coats. some women appear to wear white shirts with subordinates to knee-length skirts.

I looked at myself, a very distant look at what they were wearing. I felt like a stranger who was lost.

"Welcome ma'am, please come in!" the voice of a Waiters made me look at him.

I gulped bitterly. Meeting him was like facing death.

I stood up to greet the middle-aged woman.

"Good day ma'am, how are you!" I give my hand as a sign of respect.

Bu Ayu smiled coldly while shaking my hand briefly.

"Sit down! sorry to keep you waiting," he said flatly.

His words did not sound regretful at all because it had made me wait long enough.

"Do you want to eat something?" the menu opens up on the table.

"No, thank you!" I always felt that the offer was just a stale. I don't know, I used to think this Bu Ayu is very good.but seeing some things that happened, made me rethink and be wary of him.

"Well, thank God, at least I don't have to bother spending money." he murmured slowly.

"Sorry ma'am, actually I want to know why you suddenly want to meet me?" ask me to vent.

Bu Ayu looked at me coldly.

"Well, I don't want to linger anymore, because I'm also very busy!" Bu Ayu took out a brown envelope from inside her bag. It seemed like it had been prepared because it looked open. Bu Ayu then pushed the thing in front of me.

"Is this mom?" I looked at him not understanding.

"Open up and look!" his orders.

At first I hesitated to look at the contents of the envelope, but my curiosity was so great that I ventured to pick it up and open it.

I opened my eyes sharply.

Shocked, of course, the contents of the envelope turned out to be some photos of me and Sandy when we vacationed to one of the family recreation areas. I didn't even know anyone was stalking us until we managed to capture it through camera shots.

I looked up at Bu Ayu for quite a while. What exactly does this mean.

"Hows it? you must be surprised, right? where did I get all those photos!" jest.

"Did you tell someone to follow us?" I'm trying to guess.

"Clear Eyebrow.. I thought, you're a smart enough woman to understand what I mean?" Bu Ayu looked at me cynically.

"I really don't understand mom!" I shook my head slowly.

Bu Ayu corrected his seat.His body leaned slightly closer to the table.

I was glued on long enough. The thing that I had been afraid of finally happened also.I thought if Bu Ayu would not act this far.or maybe he would ignore the private life of Sandy...

He seemed to be a high fortress between my relationship with Sandy.

"Why?!" I tried to dare to question his unreasonable request.

Ma'am ayu smiled lightly.

"Oh my God, should I explain everything? your status? even in terms of age, you are not suitable! Sandy is young, she does not understand the terrible outside life.You already have children, of course know many things and experienced. So please,.. Stop everything before it's too late!"

I've heard harsh words and even mockery, but somehow, today Ayu's speech feels very painful to me.

"Does Sandy know what you're doing?"

I gave her a doubtful look, although I was very sure Sandy didn't know about any of this, but I tried to ask her to just outwit her. I'm an uneducated woman, but I'm not a stupid woman who just fell down with a bluff.

"Sandy knows it or not. it's not important at all. Sandy has always dated many women and the average of them is not just any woman! You might just be one of them, so rather than you being disappointed later on. it's better to just end it all now."

I try to be calm and smile at him.

"Sorry mom, I can't keep up with Mom's request." I refused.

Bu Ayu looked at me sharply.

"Why? has she fucked you? don't tell me you're pregnant because I won't believe it!" vile accusation.

"Did I look cheap in mom's eyes? even these photos can't prove anything ma'am!" I refute putting that envelope back on the table.

Our views collide with each other's emotions that are still held back. For him maybe my attitude was too bold and disrespectful to him. But I also have the principle to defend myself when I am cornered, especially if what he accuses me is not true at all.

"I was completely fooled by the plain appearance of your eyebrows." he muttered looking down at me.

"Everyone's look can fool you. I won't know from everyone in this place, which one has a real face or just pretends. even I felt deceived by my mother's appearance!" selorohku

"What do you mean? how dare you speak that? who do you think you are?" hiss upset.

"I am indeed a nobody mom. I am not even comparable to mom. only, if mom disturbed my calm. then I will do the same!"

"I'm sorry!" my toilet again while getting up from the chair and leaving Bu Ayu alone.

I came out of that place steadily, when to be honest my body shook violently.It even felt like my feet did not step on the earth.

After coming out of the Resto I passed by Mr. Ivan, his face looked surprised. So do I.

She must be wondering why I could get out of this luxurious place by myself.

"Alis," he said slowly.

I had no intention of poking him and immediately ran to stop a taxi that happened to pass by.

I let out a sorry breath.

because of the emotion and panic, I didn't even notice and just got into the cab. and I know very well how much money I have to spend if I take this taxi to my workplace again.

"Foolish base" I said to myself.
