52. Trust
Adrian
The smell of coffee mixed with the smell of the library. They chitchat slowly around. Coffee shop convenient location to chat.I know this place from the nerdy girl. Who would have thought I'd be here again.
I sat on the armchair in front of her. Ayesha sits in front of me. The round table separated us.
"You like to be here?" I asked.
she nodded, placing the book on the table. "I didn't know you liked reading?"
"Well, I don't like it, but I like the coffee and the cake here. They taste good."
"Yes, I work here."
Gosh, I'm ashamed of myself. No wonder the waitress smiled at us.
After we ordered food from the waitress, Aisyah asked, "So, what do you want to ask?"
The type of girl who gets to the point or because she's uncomfortable sit here with me and wants all of this to end quickly?
I replied, "About my relationship with Fany."
She nodded slightly. "You lo

Audacity 53. Push Over
AdrianI took Fany home from campus. Again she called someone.Love relationships need a sense of 'trust'.I believe in Fany, however, there is a small hole in the word 'believe'. That small hole can only be closed by meeting Joshua. I'm guessing he's her mother's choice.I hit the steering wheel many times because I was angry. "Damn it!""Calm down, I'm on the phone," Fany moaned, keeping her focus on her stupid phone.Let me guess. "Joshua?"She nodded quickly, covering my mouth with her finger. "Hello, Joshua? How are you?"I turned to find her laughing so hard she covered her mouth. She spoke plainly."Seriously Josh? My God. You're so smart."Enough, I can't take it anymore! "Oh, so now you like smart people? I'm smart in bed too. You should try sometime.""Adrian, shhh."So this is the feeling of jealousy when the girl you like is snatched away by people? Be patient. A se
Audacity 54. Joshua
FanyI didn't want to take Adrian to see Joshua because I was worried about his behavior later. Not a bad thing, I enjoy him being jealous. Jealousy is a sign of love, right? The weirder Adrian acts, the more he loves me, but what happens when he meets Joshua? He's not ready yet, it takes time.Meanwhile my relationship with Joshua is getting closer. Since we're not that far apart in age, he's easy to talk to.I hope that Joshua and Adrian can meet soon, hopefully they can become friends.I parked the car on the arm of the street in front of the reading coffee cafe.The aroma of coffee wafts in a room full of bookshelves. The sound of small chatter occasionally heard accompanying the sound of the paper being turned over. It looks like a reading coffee cafe.I waved at the handsome man who smiled at me.His appearance… was different from the last night we met. He was wearing a long sweet sweater an

Fany"Adrian?" I can't believe he came here on a big motorbike. It's not like he swore never to ride a motorbike again"What's wrong Miss?" asked Joshua. "He's your friend?""Boyfriend." I grabbed Josh's hand on the table. “Listen, he's impulsive and jealous, so you don't--”"He'll be even more jealous if he sees you holding my hand."Oh no, he would definitely vent all his anger on Joshua.Joshua chuckled watching Adrian's movements outside. "Your boyfriend is cool, is he a motorcycle gang member?""Joshua I beg you, run."He laughed. "Miss is too worried. He's a nice guy.""He used to beat up six seniors who bullied me at school. I don't want you to be beaten."Adrian walked into the cafe, came over to us with a devilish face, his eyes unblinking judging us with definitely negative thoughts. I know it!I stood up, holding his hand. "Adrian, introduce this J
Audacity 56. Dark Secret
FanyWhy do I feel Joshua looks like Adrian. Handsome, sloppy, annoying. Yes he's sloppy, but in front of me he can suppress it, while Adrian in front of me is out of control.After showering and changing into casual clothes, immediately went to see Joshua. When I got there, I sat relaxed away from the window. He had changed into more casual clothes, a long-sleeved sweater, and a pair of t-shirts.I just sat down, he immediately gave a serious face without a smile. "Very well, Miss. Listen carefully. I uncovered a very old secret document."He placed a pile of white printed paper, with yellowed documents on it, on the table. There were lots of pictures on the papers, photos when my father was young and Mr. Bened. Maybe he took photos of these documents in a hurry, then printed them.One of the documents is the initial bookkeeping of the company.Joshua said, "Your company used to be co-founded with Mr. Be
Audacity 57. It Nothing
AdrianYesterday was amazing. I got a new friend named Joshua. She likes my next door neighbor, so Fany is safe.This morning I planned to surprise Fany by locking the door from the outside, then hiding behind a wall. I want to see his reaction when he thinks I'm back to the way I used to be, it must be funny.When locking the door, the occupants of the next room came out of the room. He greeted me lightly."Look who wakes up early without needing Fany to pick her up.""Well, change is important. Oh yeah, you got a greeting from Joshua."“Give my regards to him, and tell him if you dare, give a direct greeting, don't leave it. Me first, yes."I waved to let Aisyah go. Now he was acting more detached than usual. Maybe because you think of me as a friend? Cute girl.Suddenly someone from downstairs came to me with a helmet. Oh shit, he was the one who lent me a motorbike yeste

AdrianThe place where I work is heaven for me, able to turn a bad mood into a bright one. Lucky I followed Carl's advice to work here. First salary, $750."See? Your smile is so cute after receiving the money," Carl commented."Don't bother him Carl, you'll get a bad tattoo later," said my coworker.Carl sat on the couch waiting to count the store cash. His eyes glowed unblinking. His laughter began to resemble Mr. John."In two months I can buy a new motorbike," he muttered."Learn to ride a motorcycle first," I said.He was still laughing carelessly. Money base.After my 'patient' was satisfied I was about to work on another patient, but a little boy walked into my work place. Elisa's child tugged at the bottom of my shirt.Seeing his nephew bothering me at work, Carl commented, "Kid, if you want to play this afternoon, yes, now Uncle Adrian is at work."The little boy didn'
Audacity 59. Old Friend
AdrianI sat on the lounger. Many criminals here are being questioned by the police, it looks like there's been a riot."Adrien!" Carl sat next to me, studying the handcuffs I was wearing. "Nice bracelet.""Want to try?""Carl, don't make fun of him. Adrian, I'm sorry. Because of this you--""Does not matter." Even though this matter was so big, he didn't need to know. Women need not be burdened by men's affairs.Elisa sat on the other side of me. Rather than seeing Carl, it was better to see a young aunt. Her face languished, full of invisible burdens. If I hadn't been handcuffed I would have grabbed his palm, caressing her soft cheek.Now all I can do is ask, "What's really going on?"Elisa squeezed her knee. As if she was about to answer, "He's the father of my child.""Your husband?"She shook her head."Your ex-husband?"She shook her head and replied, "KK ane I ..
Audacity 60. Mr Downson
AdrianThe police asked me all sorts of questions, from normal questions such as address, occupation, status, to official immigration cards. Then sudenly he ask about imigrant card.I answered, "I'm Native American, born and raised in California. So how could I possibly have an Immigrant card?""Are you sure? Did your parents have Italian blood?"My shoulders go up and down. I never met Grandma and Grandpa. "Obviously my mom and dad are Americans."Every now and then I peek at the door of the commissioner's office. I hope he remembers who I am. There are many things I want to talk about, especially about the contents of the conversation with my late father.The burly policeman with Sea's girlfriend came into the interrogation room. I don't know what he was whispering to the police who were interrogating me. Then he left and didn't forget to give some snarky lyrics."Adrian Bened, where do you live?
