BECAUSE IT’S YOU - Chapter 41:KLCC
“I miss you so much, did I do anything wrong?”
“No. I guess.”
“Just tell me, don’t hide anything please. I’m begging you.”
Deandra silent, she can’t speak her heart. She can’t even stand properly after hear Rayyan voice.
After awhile Rayyan let Deandra free from the hug.
“I need go back to Johor tonight, it’s already noon, lets grab something to eat first.” Deandra give suggestion to avoid Rayyan eyes.
“So soon?”
“Yes, really not planning to stay here.”
“Alright, if that the case.”
They walk together to Rayyan car. Rayyan open the passenger door for her, as soon as she sit, she saw a picture on Rayyan dashboard, it’s a picture Rayyan kissing someone forehead, but Deandra not sure who the person that Rayyan kiss, not sure either his new girlfriend or boyfriend since Rayyan quickly hide the picture.
Deandra ignore what she saw and quickly fasten her sit belt. The entire journey only filled with song from radio. Neither Rayyan or Deandra open their mouth to start the conversation.
They both arrive at KLCC (Kuala Lumpur City Centre) to grab some food. They head to Marini’s on 57, it is an exclusive Italian restaurant set on the 57th floor of Petronas Tower 3, adjacent to Suria KLCC.
While Rayyan ordering the food, Deandra look outside the tower. She remember come here on her birthday, Rayyan treat her like a princess that day. He even gives her a nice necklace that writes D&R on the locket. Also he gives her 100pieces roses that combine 7 colors of roses in it.
Deandra never dare to dream to be treating like that. She never dream to have a so called perfect boyfriend, she know her limit. She still remembers what her friend said to her when she filled form that asked about ambition for the counselor to analyze. Deandra innocently write police and doctor on the form, a typical ambition for a little girl like her. But her friend told her this,
“Hahaha, you can’t be a police officer; police need to catch a criminal so they need to be slim to run fast, a fat pig like you can only be the criminal so the police can easily catch you.”
“Yes she can’t be a doctor too; she will end up killing her patient because her big hand may over press the patient chest while doing a CPR.”
While the other laugh Deandra cry inside, from elementary school she be feeding that fatties only bring troubles to others, fat people is a lazy person, and etcetera.
