CHAPTER 20

HOLLAND’S P.O.V

Selena mau masak everyday? dia serajin tu kah?

GULP.

Saya menatap my handphone screen, looking at her last message… looking, not reading it already… I’m staring into blank space…

Baru jam berapa ni? cerrr, baru dekat 8pm bah…

Pantas jari saya mengetik screen handphone saya…

Dialing London’s number…

“apaaa…?!” London jawab with an annoyed voice… “saya belum balas dendam lagi sama kau tadi tengahari…”

Erk… tidak payah bah kau mau balas dendam… sudahpun saya dapat karma… karma memakan kari ayam yang pedas gila, sikit saya mau lari to the backyard and jump into the pool…

“saya rindu Kimmy’s Italian dishes…” saya bilang…

“eh?” London exclaimed in disbelief… “the dishes might be Italian, but it’s not Kimmy’s…”

Ah well… ya bah… saya tau lah bah Kimmy pun tidak pandai masak, anak jotawan pula si Kimmy tu… at least you guys ada chef and you don’t have to suffer, London… ciss!

“ya so… dinner besok bah…” I sounded like a beggar… sungguh memalukan…

“makan saja bah tempat mom or suruh saja si little miss shorty kau masak…” London bilang…

Little miss shorty? how insulting… bikin panas oh…

“kalau tidak mau jemput cakap saja bah…” aik, merajuk oh saya...

“iisshh… besok kami dinner with the Bestians… a small gathering to celebrate Harren’s birthday...” London explained…

PASRAH.

Tapi saya tidak berputus asa… I called Jordan… kalau Bella tu banyak alasan, sama macam London… adik-beradik kan apa tidak… ciss!

The 5th ring baru Jordan jawab panggilan saya…

“saya rindu masakan kau…” saya bilang…

“yaiks… kitai…” Jordan jawab…

Saya terkekeh geli…
“besok kau masak ah your Norwegian beef steak…”

“kenapa tidak suruh Bella…?” saya dengar lagi suara Bella menanya siapa tu…

“mau tanya lagi…” I rolled my eyes walaupun Jordan tidak nampak…

“bah… macam biasalah…” Jordan bilang…

YES! YES!

7pm at Jordan and Bella’s… terus saya whatsapp Selena that we’ll be having dinner sama dorang Bella…

Selena tidak reply… dia tersinggung kah tu? should I just submit to her wanting to cook? saya takut bah at one point nanti saya tidak boleh tahan saya termuntah depan dia… I hope the wallpaper and the cooking app are hints already for her…

TING!

Sempat saya berdoa… janganlah dia sakit hati, jangan, please…

Selena: I can be your maid if you want…

Huh? maid…? I didn’t expect that kind of reply though…

You want to be my maid, Selena? I should be horrified by her offer… but instead my lips curled up into a devilish smile…

Me: Then I’ll buy you a French maid’s uniform…
Me: with a cap to match…

Eh! terbuduh sudah fikiran saya ni tau… illegal otak kau ni, Holland…! I dropped my handphone on my desk and bent down to open the mini fridge attached to my working desk…
