Several days passed, while waiting for his counter customers. Ellia accidentally filled her time by opening social media on her phone. And accidentally, he found a post from a close friend during High School nearly two years ago.
The post was about some of the official campuses that open enrollment for online full tuition. With a variety of courses available and much in demand people at that time.
I was interested and curious about the post. Ellia also tried to dig out more accurate information from the links that have been listed in the post.
As a result, a few moments later. Ellia's tiny face revealed her happy look and bright smile. She's so happy. Because in a moment, he could realize his dream of becoming a scholar.
So happy, Ellia did not realize. That, since a few minutes ago. A food courier came to bring him food.
"Miss...!!! Miss...!!! NO-NA!!!" call the courier a few times until he has to raise his voice a little. So that the person he calls may see him.
"Astagfirullah!!!" ellia said surprised to make her seat that has wheels, backwards half a meter because of it.
"Eh.uh... Miss, careful!!!" the courier said with a hand gesture to resist the movement of the seat occupied by Ellia. In order not to make Ellia fall down. But whatever the power, between him and Ellia was blocked by the window table.
Luckily, Ellia was able to quickly come to her senses from her shock. And stop the movement of the chair that could have embarrassed him because of a fall.
"Allahu Akbar's... Why did it surprise me anyway?! Almost, I fell." said and hardik Ellia in a soft voice.
"I'm sorry Miss??! I didn't mean to surprise you just now. I just slightly raised the volume of my voice. So you can listen to my call. Because, I have called several times with a slow and medium tone. You don't notice me either. Again, I'm sorry Miss??!" obviously Mas courier was apologizing.
"really??! If so, it means I'm wrong. Forgive me for ignoring you??!" said Ellia felt guilty and quickly reached out her hand to apologize to the Courier.
"Yes, we're both wrong. So, we should forgive each other." said Mas Courier and welcomed Ellia's hand.
"Oh yeah, I mean come here. To deliver this food to you Miss. You're the counter guard?" obviously Mas courier was and asked to make sure, if he wasn't the wrong person.
"Food??! What's the name of the sender?" ellia asked a little confused.
"He didn't mention her name Miss. He just said "To deliver this food to this counter guard." Miss." replied the courier honestly.
"Did you see the guy? Can you tell me what that guy looks like?" ask Ellia
"Em... was about 185 cm tall, white, and she was wearing a dark gray suit." explained Mas the courier as per her vision.
"I don't seem to have any friends with such traits. Who is he? If the sender isn't clear, I'm afraid to eat that food. Don't the food have any more poison?!! Ihh... Just throw it away Mas!!! I still want to live." said Ellia with a slight shudder in horror
Ellia refused to accept the food. For fear of poisoning and his life will end in vain later. Imagining it all he shuddered in horror himself.
"Astagfirullahal'adhim! That's not going to happen, miss. Although the sender of this food is not known. However, I guarantee myself that this food is clean, halal and delicious. Because of this food, it came from my mother's restaurant. And he himself prepared and wrapped it. So, there is no way...if my mother poisoned her own customers?!!" said Mas the courier and explained where and what kind of food it delivered.
"Hem...really?!! But I still doubt it. What if the courier tries it first? For me to believe, if this meal is non-toxic. And Mas courier had to wait for me to finish eating. After that, the courier can go." said Ellia challenging Mas courier.
He deliberately did that, to prove that the food was safe and non-toxic. And the matter of waiting for him to finish eating the food. It was also to see the reaction of Mas courier's body. After a while of tasting the food.
"Oh my goodness, miss...! You're too su'udzonous to others." said Mas courier was starting to grow angry with Ellia's protective attitude, towards yourself. "alright. I'll taste your food. To prove that food is safe from toxins. I will also wait for you to eat. Now, let's open the food!!!" keep the courier.
He took the Ellia challenge for granted. And ordered Ellia to open the food box for him. So that he can taste it.
When Ellia opened her food box. The courier shifted the seats available there. For his place to sit while tasting Ellia's food.
After the food box was fully opened. The aroma of these foods directly tempts Ellia's sense of smell and taste. So that makes him have to swallow his own saliva. To overcome this temptation. Then allow the courier to taste the food first.
"This, Please taste!" said Ellia while thrusting the food in front of the courier.
"Don't blame me, Miss. If until I go and finish this meal." said Mas courier before tasting the food.
"Why is that?" asked Ellia not to understand.
"This is one of my favorite foods, miss. And I'm afraid, after tasting it then I'll go straight and finish it." explained Mas courier.
"Yes, don't dong...!!! Let's taste it!!!" ellia said and said she could not wait to eat the food. But you have to make sure the safety of the food first.
And without saying much more. The courier began to taste the food. Use the plastic spoon available in the food box.
One spoon.two spoon... The courier put the food in his mouth. And Ellia continued to pay attention to the facial mimic displayed by Mas the courier when tasting the food. And the mimic is so relaxed and looks very greedy when chewing his food.
Feeling worried that the courier will finish the food. Just about to take that food again next spooned. Ellia immediately pulled out her food box and brought it closer in front of her.
"That's enough. I'll ask, don't you feel the heat in your throat?" ellia said as she pulled out her food box, then asked.
And still in the state of chewing. The courier replied with a soft head. A sign that he felt nothing in his throat.
"alright. That means the food is safe. I'll eat it." Ellia concluded. Then quickly snatch the spoon in the hand of Mas the courier. And began to scoop and feed the food into his mouth. After saying basmalah.
Meanwhile, Mas courier can only chew up and swallow the food left in his mouth. But as he chewed, his lips seemed to smile. I don't know what he thinks?
Then, the courier drank the water that Ellia had prepared for him. Then clean his mouth with tissue that has also been prepared by Ellia, before.
Before long, Ellia had finished her meal. Up to the toilet and no rest. Not even a grain of rice was seen in the food box.
When Ellia was drinking water. The courier said something that immediately made Ellia choke on the water and coughed.
"Miss, why did you use my old spoon and not replace it with another spoon? Isn't that the same as us kissing indirectly??!!!" said the courier by displaying a small smile on his lips.
"E.M...??!" said Ellia with both ends in her forehead raised and while continuing to drink water. And immediately choked after hearing a statement about kissing indirectly he did. "Uhukk...." Ellia coughing.
"God...!!! Slowly Miss!" said Mas Courier.
