“This is impossible.” Cia's body was limp, making her sit on the bathroom floor. The net still continues to look at the pregnancy test that shows two red lines. Her tears just escaped her beautiful eyes. Instantly, even sobs sounded so heartbreaking. Feeling so sad is so amazing.
“I don't want.” Only that sentence could be spoken Cia. But that can't change anything. Because in reality, she's really pregnant.
Devastated Cia's life when she discovers that she is pregnant. She thought life would be as sweet as the cake she had made all this time. But life is not that sweet. Now, his struggle in the land of people to study and end happily, just a mere wishful thinking. Because everything was destroyed instantly.
Imagining graduating college and pioneering bakery business has always graced his mind all along. Three years already Felicia Amaya Julian studied at one of the universities ‘culinary’ branching in London. Graduation was already achieved a month ago and the plan, one week away, he will return to Indonesia.
Unfortunately, all was not in line with what he planned. Returning home pregnant, not included in the list of Cia plans. The twenty-three-year-old girl, now confused by what to do.
In the bathroom, Cia sat with her legs folded. Hiding his face between his chest and legs. Her tears were non-stop dripping. His feelings this time were completely unbecoming. It seemed, Cia could not imagine what it would be like if her family knew about this. They might be very disappointed. Though, they were unceasingly reminding Cia to be careful.
With the rest of his energy, Cia got up. Swinging his steps to the bed. Her tears still flowed on her beautiful face. Not receding at all.
Laying her body down on the spot, Cia curled up on the bed. “Why can it be like this?” That question came to his mind. I can't imagine how all this happened to him.
...🌺🌺🌺...
A month ago.
The wind was shaking the trees. The dried leaves were blown off by the wind, falling onto the streets and filling the streets. It looks beautiful when the eyes look at the streets filled with dry leaves.
Cia walked out of the house, finding such a beautiful sight before her, her smile cracking. The fallen leaves indicate that it is now autumn in London. However, unfortunately this autumn, it will not be fully enjoyed, because in another month he will return to Indonesia.
Cia tightened the coat she was wearing. Not giving a crack of cold air that wanted to barge in and hit his skin. A sweet smile spread across his face. It has not been three years that Cia has lived in a country of people. Away from family to pursue their goals.
The plan, after graduation, Cia will continue the cake business pioneered by the grandmother. Open more branches and expand the efforts of the grandmother who had been just a cake.
Cia swung her steps. Heading to one of the stops closest to the house he had been in. Living in the British royal country made him completely independent. Everywhere he went by himself using the public buses available.
This afternoon Cia was preparing to attend a graduation party held by her friends. Before going to the party, Cia took the time to go to the office of Sebastian Noah - the man who had been filling the niches of his heart.
All this time, Cia loved in silence the man who became her sister-in-law's friend. Noah already has a lover, making it impossible for Cia to get into a relationship with Noah.
Cia goes to Noah's office to give him a parting gift. At the very least, it would be a memento for Noah.
In the double decker bus, Cia looked at the passing road. The ancient buildings he saw, looked so beautiful. As if explaining how historical relics are so valued, guarded and cared for.
Always, Cia never ceases to admire the place where she lives today. That's what made him so enthusiastic when choosing London as a college place, three years ago.
The bus arrived at a stop near Noah's office. Cia got off and walked to reach Noah's office. When she first came to London, she used to come to Noah's office to deliver cookies, but unfortunately, after finding out Noah had a lover, she chose not to come to Noah. Slowly away from the man.
After meeting with the receptionist at Noah's office, Cia was directed to go straight to Noah's room. No need to ask anymore, he's already very sorry where Noah's room is. So, he quickly went into the room of that twenty-eight-year-old man.
“Hai, Brother,” greet Cia when entering Noah's room. Looking at her, the handsome man with blue eyes was seen sitting sweetly in his chair.
“What wind are you in here?” Noah stood up while buttoning the suit attached to his body. Approaching Cia who was still standing in front of the door.
“I want to give you something.” Cia opened her bag to pick up the gift she had prepared for Noah.
“Sit down first!” noah's orders. His steps, continuously swung towards the sofa in his room. Then, sit her body slowly on the sofa made of navy leather, in accordance with her favorite color.
Cia undoes her intention to take her prize. As per Noah's request, he sat on the same sofa as Noah. It didn't take long, Cia returned to pick up a present for Noah.
“This,” said Cia while handing over a small rectangular box. The navy blue box was wrapped in a beautiful white ribbon.
“What is this?” noah asked as he received the box.
“That, a parting gift from me to Sister.”
Noah who was about to open the gift immediately stopped his movement. A moment to digest Cia's words. Until finally, he remembered that Cia had finished her education and intended to return to her homeland.
“What is this as a sign if we won't meet again?” asked Noah quipped.
“It is not so, Brother. It's just a gift because I'm coming back. Not a sign like Brother Noah said.” Cia rolled her eyeballs lazily when she saw the man in front of her insinuating her.
“Good.” Noah opened the box and found a navy colored ballpoint pen that read ‘Sebastian Noah’. A smile rose on Noah's face when he saw Cia's beautiful gift. “Thank you,” said.
“Sama-sama,” Cia replied. After answering, he tidied up his bag. Today's activities will still be long as she has to go to her friend's house to celebrate her graduation.
“You're back?” asked Noah who found out Cia was leaving.
“Iya, I have to go to my friend's house because it will celebrate my graduation.” Cia stood up and prepared to leave.
“Till night?” noah asked, wanting to know.
“No, afternoon I have come home,” replied Cia while slinging her bag over her shoulder.
“Then I go first.” Cia passed by while waving her hand. His phone was shaking. It was predictable if it was his friends who asked him to come immediately.
“Cia ...,” call Noah.
“Do not get close to foreign men.” While opening the door, Cia said what Noah often said. The sentence was well remembered because Noah always said it. “I will remember,” he said. Passed out of Noah's room.
“Basic!” noah shook his head. His net back on the reward given by Cia.
