SPOTSOME
CHAPTRE 23
“Those pickets tomorrow don't forget the sweep of the floor until kinclong! keep mop until there is not a single dust left! And one more thing, the glass should be on the lap! If not your face that I wipe!” The class leader immediately gave the order and then went home with a fixed class picket at the maid!
Anna cursed miserably, "Have a very bad class leader anyway! Class leader or employer?! We're like TKW being ordered!"
Sarpo Bawelnya is not kelulungan. Whereas on another day the accuser let them pick the spot.
“Udah Na, no need to frown. Do you know who is teaching tomorrow, Novita? Women lovers of cleanliness. Dust is taken care of. Sarpo kayak it.”
Anna continued her cleaning duties. Ella's comment was enough to make Anna berserk in horror considering how the teacher sounded the bell ranting. Two hours of lessons instead of being spent on lectures because of shoe impurity, it felt like their ear veins almost broke off hearing the teacher's ultimatum on that one. And since then every Monday they learn not to wear shoes. Anti-mainstream, right?.
The floor is done. Now Ella grabbed the germ-proof cling and sprayed it on the glass. His focus was again dark. Suddenly a tall, white, dimpled man standing next to her helped clear the glass.
“Mike, why are you here? You picket on thursday.”
“My conscience tells me to help you elo. Because I know your short body will not be able to touch all the glass.” replied the guy was relaxed.
“Nyebelin! Do not use blasphemy can not anyway?” Ella cursed. Yes, although honest from the bottom of his heart and almost drowned, actually he really likes to be helped.
‘Ukhhmmm... ’ Sweet innuendo Anna successfully make Ella not feel good. Anna's problem is single, so she likes to be envious when she sees other people together.
The plot! The girl forgot that she was single too.
“La, later go home with me ya!” Mike asked in a commanding tone. But a second later.
Drrtt. Ella's phone vibrated, delaying Mike's response. The girl's eyes widened to see the name on the screen.
“Sister Julian? Tumben phone? What's up?” inner Ella. Ella takes her position away from Mike and answers the call.
“Halo, sis.”
“La, sister ask for help. Later tonight you take Mike to the Cafe, yes.”
“Tonight, Brother? In which cafe Kak?”
“Cafe us. But don't let Mike know. You're the only one you can hope for now. Brother wants you to help brother to improve Mike's relationship with his father.”
"okay, Sis. I'll help you as much as I can.”
Tutt's.. Phone connection disconnected. Ella looked at Mike worriedly. The guy is still engrossed in his lap-wiping activities.
-000-000-
Ella put her body on the bed. His eyes looked at the ceiling. But his mind drifted far away.
“Gue how to do?” the girl seemed to be thinking hard.
Tok-tok The sound of knocking on the door broke the silence. Ella who was struggling with her thoughts finally woke up
“Iya Mah, why?”
Ella opened the door with a lazy face.
“There's Mike under your nyariin.” Mamah Ella smiled wryly then turned to the kitchen. Judging from the appearance of his mother who wore an apron, it seemed to be cooking.P rushed down the stairs to approach Mike. The girl gets Mike who wears a trining suit with earphones that he puts over his head.
"La, jogging yuk!”
Ella gaped at Mike who suddenly invited her to go jogging.
“Age change clothes! Still in the afternoon, put on a nightgown! I will buy snacks, deh.”
“Serious?” Ella was thrilled to hear the word treaty. Because what? Because he likes what he calls free.
“Iya spit! A lot of kids! Hunting before I change my mind.” Mike's tone now sounds jutek.
Alright, before her chance was lost, Ella took a thousand steps towards the room to change clothes.
-000-000-
Mike ran a little. While Ella's breathing has been wheezing. It was the third time they had surrounded the complex.
“Mike, I'm tired!”
They stopped in front of the park. Mike glanced at Ella who was already flooded with sweat. The man hugged Ella and sat down at the edge of the park among the street vendors.
“Wait here bentar.” Mike approached the drink seller and bought two bottles of mineral water. The guy gave Ella a bottle.
“Where to buy? I'm laper, Mike.”
“That's why I've bought Drinking.” Mike tried to test the girl's patience. Yeah but about the promise Ella can't wait, huh? Mike got a punch in his arm.
“Ngak... Naw.. I don't accept.”
“Ndon't accept ya udah.” Mike put on a cool-ass face. Sok cool, not so cool.
“Mike, fix me crashing and will strike say the same lo two years.”
Mike chuckles at the cute expression of Ella, “No need to moyong so can not mbak?” seductive Mike while pinching the girl's cheek.
“Mike! , it can not nyubit my cheeks mulu. My cheek add chubby!” nagel Ella.
“Iya... Honey!”
The deg! Whatwhat? Mike said what? Sayan? How does it feel like Ella wants to fly?
“Ya come on.” Mike pulled Ella's hand gently.
“No... No... No. I don't want satay anymore. I want tuna sushi.”
Mike clings to the girl's head slowly. Why it can turn out to be annoying. “Dikasih heart for love.” ****! What's that saying?
“Bodo highly!” reply Ella with her face.
“Ya eight hours stand by at home. I'll pick up.” Mike ruffled the girl's hair. And at once Ella's face turned bright shining like a new sun rising from the eastern horizon.
-000-000-
Tittt.... The car horn sounds. Mike's sign has arrived. Ella hurried to tidy up her appearance and approached Mike with her sweetest smile.
"We're happy now?"ask Ella.
Mike smiled as he looked at Ella with his appearance. The only thing that makes the guy happy is seeing Ella smile. It felt like a burden was missing.
"Depart the Princess." said Mike in a seductive tone. The guy opens the door and lets Ella in.
Ella was looking at Mike. It turns out that guy has a romantic side too.
“Something seems suddenly full of me.”
Yep... Ella was caught stealing a look. The girl's face suddenly metamorphosed like a boiled crab.
-000-000-
Ella circulated her gaze looking for a fitting seat. The girl also chose to sit near the garden decorated with small colorful lights.
“Sushi tuna equals strawberry yogurt dessertnya yes, mbak. Oiya Mike lo pesen what?”
“Same as.”
Ella nodded and ordered the food two servings earlier. The girl looked at Mike again, now that their gazes clashed, the flashes of love began to shine. Ella's beautiful lens makes Mike want to keep looking at the girl again and again. There seems to be a pink aura here. Mike seems to be starting to like Ella. Or maybe she fell in love with Ella? It's just that he's still very selfish to admit that feeling. While each is still fixated with silence, Julian, Jashon and Carissa appear before Mike. They smiled at the two people at the pink-clad table. Kontan Mike was surprised not to play so saw the presence of Jashon and Carissa.
“Carissa? What's going on here?"
"Sister invited Carissa here, La. You calm down, yes." replied Julian.
"Emmm.. Yes Brother July, Om, let's sit.”
Mike stared intently at Ella who allowed the man to sit down. 'What do they all gather here?! Something is not right!' inner Mike.
“What are you here for?!” blow Mike without further ado.
“Mike, I invited them here.” Ella said timidly. I was worried Mike would explode. Mike warms up as soon as he hears Ella's words.
“Everything will be okay. Believe me please.” Ella gently clasped the man's hand. His sincere gaze made Mike slightly wither.
“Mike, how are you? ” Jashon voice unlock.
Mike hunchback. Honestly, actually from the bottom of his heart he misses the sound very much. It's just that Mike is too arrogant to admit it.
"Mike, I want you to know everything now.”
"Dad? What does this mean, Dad? Carissa doesn't understand?" Carissa looked at Mike confusedly.
Then, What do I need to know?! I think everything is pretty clear!" Mike replied with emphasis in each word.
Mike hates godfathers like Jashon who let his mother burn alive. Because the man couldn't save his angel from the flames.
“You deserve to hate your father as a liar. But not as Mike.”'s killer
What was that? What do these heart-wrenching words mean?
“Nevent to be stale! To the point can you?!” snapped Mike.
“Daddy misses you, Mike.” says Jashon.
Mike hates those words! Really am! it hurts! His heart was torn apart.
Brak! Mike kicked the table and stood up from his seat, “Gue said no need to talk! A waste of time I know not!”
“Mike!” exclaim Julian. He didn't like Mike's attitude of yelling at his father like that.
Everyone who was there stiffened. Like there will be wrestling and boxing shows. Especially Carissa. The girl still hasn't fully digested everything Jashon said.
Ella rubbed the shoulder of the guy next to her and asked him to keep sitting quietly. “Mike, you should be quiet.” Mike looked at Ella. Erghhh! again that look! The look that made Mike unable to pucker.
“Sorry dad,” Jashon's voice now sounds raucous.
“During this time father has lied to you.” a puddle of tears is visible from the man's eyes.
****! His words made Mike stab! mike's feelings rumbled, his chest tight, anger and sadness enveloped the man's soul. He didn't understand what Jashon was saying.
"Mother Merlina is not your birth mother. He's just the sister of your late mother. I'm sorry I was never honest with you, Mike. Your mother actually died after she gave birth to you and Carissa. Since the fire, grandma hasn't allowed me to take you and July. Grandma just let me take Carissa, because grandma loves you so much. You were devastated by Merlina's departure. Dad's sadness exceeds your disappointment, Mike. But I fought to support you. Even though you hate you, you never stop loving you. Even after the death of my grandmother I gave you anything through Julian.”. After a long time, he finally revealed the secret. Even he was willing if Mike killed him this second as well.
"So? Mike's my big brother, huh?" Carissa looked at Mike in disbelief.
Jashon nodded, she hugged Carissa with her tears in her eyes. "Yes, he's your brother. I'm sorry, I'm just telling you now."
Mike's fingers started to clench. It felt like he was punching Jashon in the face. It turned out that he was more seductive than he thought.
“Carissa is my younger sister?! And you hid all this for years?! Do you still deserve me to call dad?! I've never felt like I had a lying father like you! And lo, Brother. Can you cooperate with a human being like him?!"
“MIKE ENOUGH!” julian snapped, he was not strong with this situation. Heart aches. Even Ella was already shedding tears at the screams and insults from Mike.
"Mike... “ Ella grasps Mike's hand gently.
"OUT! YOU DON'T WANT TO INTERFERE!” Mike brushed off Ella's hand which stopped him from leaving.
“Mike... Mike wait.” Ella chases after Mike's fast-paced steps. He should have known everything was going to be like this. And now things get complicated.

Mike sits in a small village that he doesn't know about anywhere. The boy was treated to the sight of children playing with their parents around the hut. Looking at all of that, it felt like he was tearing his heart apart with his own hands. So hurt. So the man decided he would enjoy the pain until he could completely accept it all.
Mike took the paper from his bag. The man wrote a letter to Merlina and her mother.
"Mother, if time could turn around, I would love to go back to that time. A time where you can see your mother smiling, giving a warm embrace and embrace. You two will remain the people I care about the most. Mother, although I was born from a different mother, but my affection to this day has never changed. Because the only person who wipes away my tears when sad, caressing my hair when I am restless, I will never be able to erase all the sweet memories you once gave me. It was too painful for me to forget that horrible incident. Can I open the heart space to forgive him? People who for years made me lose my way. Losing affection and parents.” Mike's letter folds into a boat he put in the river next to the shack.
