Ellian
18. Wife Candidate

Wearing a plain knee-length dress in toska color combined with a white bone blazer, her long hair was left neatly untouched. Ellie looked beautiful and was sitting on the floor waiting for an invitation.

A black minibus stopped in front of his house. The figure of a handsome man wearing sunglasses got down from the car and approached him. That man is David.

"Hi, are you ready?" a gentle greeting to Ellie who stood up to greet him.

Ellie nodded and smiled, "I say goodbye to mom and dad first". He turned back to the house.

"How beautiful your creation is, O God" David's inner neutrality ceaselessly looked at the girl.

Ellie came back to the front with both tau and her sister.

"Om my aunt excuse me" said David kindly.

"Be careful on the road, I leave Ellie with you" said Mr. Ahmad.

David nodded obediently "iya om" he said.

After saying goodbye, the two took a car and headed to the airport.

Ellie and David are on a plane that will take them back to the capital. Both of David's parents decided to go to Semarang to visit Dinda who lives with her grandmother there. As well as delivering the news of David's marriage.

"Ell" call David slowly.

"Yes" replied Ellie no less slowly.

"After we get married, we'll stay at home with my parents for a while. Do you mind?" David looked at the girl sitting next to him.

"No, I'm happy.

Aunty and o'm nice guys to me" Ellie smiled.

"Thank God, I'm relieved". David took a deep breath as if he wanted to say something important.

"El, you need to know I am not the son of a sultan who has a lot of wealth, or a CEO who is rich with many companies. I'm just an ordinary man, in addition to being a lecturer in the campus there is this small company I just started in a matter of months with some of my acquaintances. Right now the treasure I have is just a car, the shophouse that I made the office is still rented. I hope you don't mind this" at length, David explains his situation to Ellie.

Come to think of it, they don't know each other any further. Ellie doesn't even know her future husband's job, which she knows is just a little bit of a non-permanent lecturer.

Ellie shook her head slowly, a sincere smile she still showed. "Inshaa Allah I accept you as you are".

Hearing that David felt to be the luckiest man at the moment, his right hand moved about to touch Ellie's left hand. But before his hands touched, he said "can't you hold it?" David pointed at Ellie's hand. He asked permission first.

Ellie blushed she bit her lower lip and nodded slowly. Not daring to look at David's netra, he turned his head towards the window. Her cheeks were red like tomatoes.

During the trip David still did not want to release his hand, Ellie's hand to numb because he did not dare to move in the slightest.

"Oh my goodness, why is it so sticky? Did he just use glue?" curry Ellie in heart. He regretted allowing David to hold his hand.

Ellie has never been close to or dated any guy. Her days have been very busy with school activities, extra-curricular events, being provincial ambassadors and of course also helping the mother's business in the culinary field.

Although many men try to approach him he still considers only a friend no more. Of course because until yesterday, no one was able to shake his heart.

Only David who managed to make his heart unhealthy because it does not stop racing, the man who is currently right next to him. The man who will soon be her husband.

Just when he arrived at the Jakarta airport, David released his hand. Because he was busy removing the seat belt and also took the luggage that was on it.

Ellie moved her left hand for a while because she felt numb, but when they were about to go back down the hand was held tightly by David.

"Jeez this guy really, yeah, I'm not going to run away really huhuhu" whined Ellie in the heart.

They walked towards the parking lot after picking up the suitcase. And of course David's hand still held it tight.

"Mas, this is hopefully dong please release his hand first. I'm not going to run away" Ellie said as they reached David's car.

"Why?"

"My hands are numb" Ellie replied pouting.

David chuckled "oh sorry, I thought you enjoyed it".

Ellie rolled her eyes lazily. While opening the car door and sitting sweetly next to the steering chair.

After putting the bag and suitcase into the trunk of the car, David opened the door and sat behind the wheel. "Still in the afternoon, you want to go straight home or take a walk first?" ask David. Actually he hopes Ellie answered the streets first because honestly he still wants to be with this beautiful girl.

"Directly to the boarding house, yes, my entry stacked" replied Ellie origin while installing the seat belt. He just reasoned, Ellie was afraid in case there were friends of the campus who saw him walk with his lecturer, what would the world say later?

"Okay" replied David briefly, he was disappointed.

"What's up Roy?" he said shortly after sliding the green button on the screen.

The voice across seemed to explain something.

"I'm there now" he answered briefly then hurriedly drove his car at high speed.

Ellie felt something was wrong, her hands were holding on to the car door handle that was above. His heart raced as fast as a speeding car split the streets and occasionally overtook.

"Mas, there's still me here if you want to die, die alone just don't take me. Why speed up kayak gini? What the hell's going on? Where are you going?" Ellie's voice shook with fear.

"To the office, something bad happened" David replied still with his serious face.

But it reduced his speed a little.

"Sorry I brought you here first, just for a moment. Not pa-pa, right?" David said as they arrived in front of a two-story shophouse.

In front of the shophouse there is a signboard that says D Tech, which is none other than the name of David's company.

Ellie just nodded and smiled, she didn't mind at all.

"Let's go in" David asks Ellie who has gotten out of the car.

"This is my office, my room is upstairs. I'm upstairs first. You can rest there" David told Ellie when they were inside the modest shophouse. He pointed to a room in which there was a set of sofas.

"Yes" Ellie nodded.

David rushed upstairs to his room. His steps are very wide he can reach three steps at once in one step. Roy the assistant had been waiting for him upstairs.

"Where can it be tracked?" david asked Roy, who seemed busy in front of the computer. David took off his jacket and threw it on the sofa in the corner of the room.

"Almost boss" replied Roy.

David approached Roy, he sat in his seat of greatness shortly after the man got up and retreated. Now David looked seriously at the computer screen, while Roy stood obediently beside him.

While David struggled with program files tracking ip addresses that infiltrated his program. Ellie downstairs goes around observing the room. Because it's Sunday the office is quiet no employee works.

Downstairs there is a table that is a bit longer than the others. And around it there are six tables that are blocked like employee desks.

There was one room that contained a sofa and several iron shelves inside. And there's another room like it's a pantry, there's a fridge, a dining table, chairs and a stove and some plates and glasses.

Ellie goes into the pantry, she intends to make coffee. After looking through the state of the contents of the refrigerator, he found fresh bread and various kinds of jam.

His brain thought for a moment. He decided to bake cakes as a coffee companion. It seems suitable also to prop up the stomach before dinner time arrives.

There was probably a friend of David who had called, so Ellie decided to make three cups of coffee and three toast.

It didn't take long, fifteen minutes later Ellie was done with her toast and coffee. He stepped up the stairs with a tray.

After being upstairs, Ellie seemed confused she had to go into which room? There are three rooms with glass doors. One of them is wider, he decided to enter the room that looks wider.

Tok tok tok tok

David and Roy are shocked at who comes to open the door. Of course the most surprised was Roy, he gawked at the beautiful girl who was smiling towards him. Oh Roy, you're wrong, more precisely, this girl is smiling at David on the other side.

Although surprised but David still smiled "just finished, put it there first" he told Ellie. His chin pointed at a table that was between the sofas.

He realized Roy was still surprised, "he's my future wife, don't mess around" David said as he glared at his assistant.

He knows very well who Roy is, a small class playboy who likes to play with beautiful girls. As long as the two were friends for nearly fifteen years together there had not been a single girl he had taken seriously.
