8. Contacting

Shortly after grabbing the phone from David Ellie's hand was confused, who would he call now? He may have memorized the numbers Novi, Winda or others. After thinking for a moment, he dialed his own number. I hope Novi keeps his phone and his bag.

After the third ring, the call was picked up by someone far away.

"Hallo, who is this?" voice voice is crossed. Ellie was grateful in her heart for the relief that her phone was in the right hands. He had thought badly that his phone and bag were missing at the bar last night.

"Nov, it's me Ellie. Akh..." Ellie very memorized the voice that holds her phone there is none other than the voice of her best friend Novi. But his speech stopped when the interlocutor suddenly began to sound loudly.

"Jeez where is it now? Where the hell are you? Who's going, where's Elo El sleeping, El replied, all right?" Novi asked a question.

David seemed to follow in shock, he clearly heard the voice because his position sitting opposite Ellie was only a sofa handle. And then immediately he smiled.

"Well, well I'm good Nov, later I explained. Elo please bring the class needs today yes, my book to campus. I think I went straight to college so as not to be late" he replied.

"OK-okay, but if it's El, where's elo now" Novi chuckled with his question.

"Ehm, I'm here in-anu it's my aunt's house" Ellie replied as long as she smothered her own lips in fear of David's parents hearing her lies. Yet David could still hear him he frowned in wonder. "Oh yes I closed, bye" he continued.

"Call your parents in Surabaya son" said Ms. Ratna.

Ellie was silent for a moment she hesitated, worried that her father and mother misunderstood and suspected bad things to happen.

Keep pushing this way Ellie so she thinks she's finally calling her mom's phone. There's no way his father could've even fucked up.

"Assalamualaikum ma'am, this is Ellie"

"Waalaikumsalaam uh Ellie, who are you calling? You're all right?"

Mr. Wahyudi gave the code so he could speak on the phone.

"Ellie's healthy mom, oiya here's who wants to talk to mom. Don't worry" Ellie handed the phone politely to Mr. Wahyudi.

Mr. Wahyudi is seriously talking on his mobile phone. Ellie kept on fidgeting while glancing at the wall clock that showed nine o'clock over ten minutes.

Though soon precisely at ten he had his class Professor Abdullah who was notoriously merciless for those who truant his class. 'What a nih' rutnya upset in the heart.

David who caught Ellie's anxiety seemed to understand, he was also in a hurry because there were teaching classes on campus. And today is his first official day as a lecturer. It is impossible that he failed on his first day as a lecturer at his university first.

"Of course, you should stay in college, baby. Take it easy to be escorted by David and he also went to school" replied Ms. Ratna.

"I've spoken to your parents, and they agree with your marriage. This weekend we go to Surabaya to propose to Ellie" Mr. Wahyudi said after hanging up his phone.

David and Ellie gawked in shock without being able to say any more words. 'Geez what the hell is with these parents' growled david inwardly. This weekend? That means the day after tomorrow, because today is already Thursday.

'Should I be stuck in the same marriage as that man without love' his heart is really upset. Ellie squeezed her own fingers that were being interlocked.

'Ah entahlan tomorrow's business is just a thought again, I have to go to campus now' his inner monologue.

"Om, sorry aunt Ellie, excuse me for going to campus now" he said politely.

"Yes, please, let all be ushered with David. You're leaving, aren't you, David?" said mr. Wahyudi.

"Yes, I left first mah pah" said David to his parents.

"Be careful on the road, son" said Ms. Ratna.

The couple drove the departure of two lovebirds to the living room. "pah, they are compatible right? aah soon again I have a daughter-in-law and a granddaughter of two senengnya" said Ms Ratna.

Pak wahyudi only responded with a wide smile, signifying happiness.
