MILLY

MILLY
chapter 1. reuniting after a long separation


Milly was still fixated on looking at someone who had just collided with her.


He meant to be angry, but suddenly his tongue felt frozen to say.


"I'm sorry, I was completely unintentional. I was in a hurry, again I'm sorry."


The man thrust his hand out, to help Milly stand up. Like a dazed man, Milly did not answer or return the man's hand.


He still could not believe what he was seeing at the moment. Although he had not met for many years, with the man who had just collided with him, but he could still clearly remember who the man was.


The man who was always present disturbed his calm during Junior High School in his village first. The man who always comes offers help in times of distress. And also always defend her, if there are school friends who disturb her.


Well-known guy in all over the school. Not only good, he is also a smart and accomplished student. He often represented his school in various competitions. Students who make many students fall in love with her.


But baby, that man already put his heart only on Milly. It all didn't in the slightest make Milly kind to the man. Even Milly was always trying to avoid her.


And it's lucky that Milly wasn't on her side, she was always one class with Dean.


Yeah, that guy is Dean. The guy who always says love to Milly. And that's what makes Milly hate her.


Druuttt .. druuutt.


The voice of the phone held by Dean, made Milly aware of his past memories. Milly hurriedly stood up and let Dean's hand remain floating in the air.


"Hallo"


"Hallo Mr. Dean, I've been waiting since."


"Sorry, okay I'll be there soon."


Tut.tut...


The call was turned off by the guy who called Dean earlier.


"I'm sorry, I have a need that I need to work on right away. If you'd like to, would you wait for me for a moment? In about thirty minutes, I'll see you here.


Really, it's like a miracle to me. We have not seen each other for years, and now you are in front of me. Maybe we can have a chat while we're having a little coffee."


Dean spoke expectantly to Milly.


Milly just kept quiet, she didn't know what to answer. Dean still remembers it.


"Well, Milly, excuse me, yeah. I hope you'll wait for me for a moment" Dean continued. Dean leaves Milly.


*****


Milly looked at Dean who passed into the cafe. Milly was still glued to the door of the cafe. The place where he just collided with Dean. Milly was confused, did she have to wait as Dean said? go back to the cafe, or just go.


A little in his heart was the desire to wait for Dean. But most of all, Milly's heart still hates Dean like he used to. And Milly's still trying to avoid Dean.


Not for no reason Milly hates Dean. Not because of his face, because Dean includes a handsome face and also a smart person.


Although Dean is also a little naughty.


But Milly dislikes Dean's attitude, who bluntly tells her love, in front of many students. Until everyone knows it. If most female students are happy to be treated that way, but not with Milly.


It was very disturbing and embarrassed him. Even Dean's parents know that. And Milly's anger grew, as Dean's parents called him by the call of his son-in-law, in front of his classmates. And there are parents of Milly's friends.


At that time, the day of the class increase report, each student was accompanied by their parents.


"Gee, Mom's daughter-in-law is great, always a class champion" Santy's mom Dean told Milly.


"Congratulations, daughter-in-law," continued Santy, hugging Milly.


"Make it, Mom," Milly replied.


Ciee .. cieee .. ciee ....


As in command, Milly's classmates immediately shouted at her. Milly is embarrassed, wanting her taste she's mad at Dean and his friends. But Milly did it, because she appreciates Santy's mom.


I don't know what Dean told his mother, so Santy can talk like that.


Milly's mother, who was also present at the time, only smiled at Santy and Milly.


Only when at home, Milly's mother named Miss Rina asked Milly about it.


Milly told her all about it to her mother. Also about his feelings for Dean.


"We cannot tell or forbid anyone to like or hate us. We have no right to it, if someone hates us we should not retaliate by hating as well. Let it be his business with God.


But if someone likes us and we don't like them, let them. That will be his talk with God too. But there is one thing you must remember, do not hate excessive and do not also retaliate with bad words or deeds.


Because it can hurt his heart, and feared it will be bad for us later. Because we don't know, what's up with life in the future? Be good no matter what."


Milly remembers what her mother said at the time. Milly prefers to avoid. Although his heart hated Dean and kept a distance from Dean, but not once did Milly do or say that hurt Dean.


Without Milly realizing it, it also made Dean more curious and liked Milly.


_*****_


Still in the same cafe, in a VIP room. Dean, who had a meeting with his co-workers, felt the clock was so slow to turn. His mind was divided, hoping Dean's camas would think whether Milly would wait or not. Dean's big hope is for Milly to wait. If not, then there's no clue that Dean will ever see Milly again.


After a short stale conversation, Dean and his co-workers finally walked out of the room. But Dean didn't leave right away, he was circulating his gaze around every corner of the cafe room. While praying in his heart, for Milly to really wait. But he did not find the man he was looking for.


Last Dean looked at the front of the cafe. But the result is still the same. There was no sign of Milly there.


Long standing in front of the cafe, Dean finally decided to go home. Arriving in the car, Dean leaned back on the steering chair, with his head looking up at the ceiling of the car.


Disappointment and regret are two things Dean feels. Regretting that he didn't ask for Milly's cell phone number.


"Ahh .. is it possible, he wants to share his mobile number? He's so hard to get close to. What is he now, still the same as before?" Dean spoke to himself.


Then he smiled remembering his behavior first. And how Milly used to be. Milly's like a magnet to Dean. What's in Milly, like always pulling in Dean's heart.


"Is it still possible?" dean's heart spoke again.


Dean then left the cafe. He looked back repeatedly, hoping that the person he was waiting for was present. But the result is still the same.


Dean drove his car slowly down the congested streets of the capital. It just so happens that the streets of the capital are jammed, because it coincides with people coming home to work.


If it's normal, getting stuck is a very annoying thing for Dean. But this time Dean really enjoyed it. His heart is in flower. His mind was twisting the beautiful memories of the past.


Accompanied by a beautiful romantic song, Dean is like watching a time machine, which is displaying small pieces of his unrequited love story. Even so, love was very beautiful and imprinted in Dean's heart.


The meeting reminded Dean when he met Milly for the first time. And at that moment Dean immediately fell in love with him. Simple but very expensive girl because of her beauty and her heart.


The day was first to go to school, and all the new students were running MOS. All the students were split over how many groups, and Dean was one group with Milly. It turns out that not only beautiful, Milly is also smart, all the tasks given by the older brother can be completed well. It's all thanks to Milly. At that time Dean and Milly could be close and joking freely.


Until one day, when Milly's birthday, Dean who has been storing feelings for Milly, took the initiative to give a surprise for her. During the break, Dean sees Milly sitting with her friends on the edge of the school basketball court.


With great confidence, Dean borrowed the microphones of students who were practicing singing.


Coincidentally next week will be in the performing arts degree at their school.


"Birthday goal .. slamat birthday


... slamat Milly's birthday, slamat birthday."


Milly looked extremely shocked, there was not the slightest smile or happy look on that beautiful face. Her face was red, either embarrassed or angry. A moment later he immediately lowered his head.


Even so, Dean still did not waste the opportunity. He immediately squatted in front of Milly. While holding a red rose, which he took from the school garden. Dean reveals his heart.


"Sorry Milly, if I'm presumptuous to talk like this. But really from the bottom of my heart, I've liked you for a long time. Since the first time I saw you, I've fallen for you. I love you Milly. Will you be my girlfriend?" continued Dean.


After a few seconds of silence, then the cheers of the students who witnessed it sounded very boisterous.


"Receive ... accept .. accept."


Shouts from other students. There are also whistling. There were also people cheering Dean. Dean's heart was stubborn, because from earlier, Dean saw Milly was still down and still in his seat. Milly stood up and left Dean.


Ricuh was again heard accompanying Milly's steps. There were even some students who blatantly ridiculed Dean. But that didn't make Dean discouraged or angry. In fact, he remained in his belief to be able to have Milly.


***


Milly just arrived at her boarding house. After first meeting his mother. Milly went straight into the room and laid herself on the bed. His head was heavy and very painful. The problem lately, the sense of it does not stop coming to him.


Staring at the ceiling of the room, Milly tried to calm herself down.


For a moment he remembered the incident earlier, meeting the person whom Milly did not expect to see at all, and it only added to the resentment in Milly's heart.


Sleep is what Milly wants right now. Although it was difficult to close his eyes.But because he was really tired, eventually Milly fell asleep as well.


Dreeed ... dreed .. dreead ....


The noise from Milly's phone woke her up.


His head was still painful and even increased from what he felt earlier. Milly grabbed her phone, which stopped ringing.


Milly was shocked, it turned out that there had been many incoming calls from earlier. He was really tired, so he did not wake up quickly, when his phone rang from earlier.


Milly felt uneasy after knowing who had called her from earlier.


Milly looked at the clock on her phone, apparently she woke up when the magrib time had passed thirty minutes.


"It turns out it's past the time to pray magrib, today really makes me tired. Better now I pray first," muttered Milly.


Whatever the circumstances, prayer is something Milly never left behind. Except when he comes by the moon. It's been Milly's habit since she was a child.


When Milly was seven years old and she had memorized her whole prayer reading. Milly never forgot to pray.


His mother was the one who always taught and reminded Milly that.


Milly went to the bathroom. But, Milly was just about to put down the phone. A message came in, got Milly to stop doing it.


(What's your decision? I can't wait long. The choice is in your hands )


A message, from the same number as the one who called her earlier. The message was from Vania's mom, her boss at the office where Milly works.


This morning Milly wanted to borrow money from Vania. But he didn't get that money. Milly was even offered another solution, by his superior. Solution that makes his head turn dizzy. Not only that, it could bring a lot of other problems in the future. But Milly really has no other solution.
