CHAPTER 5

AMETHYST’S P.O.V

HAH.

Hahahahaha!

Saya berjaya melepaskan diri dari lelaki berwajah tampan tapi berekspresi dingin. Si lelaki ber-Ferrari.

A red Ferrari.

As I drove back to Novotel, I giggled remembering how I escaped him.

Nasib baik the guy named Joe Hutt let me off easily.

Sebenarnya, Joe lah bah yang suruh saya cepat-cepat meninggalkan the scene masa si Mr. Red Ferrari on his phone.

He took out his wallet, got a piece of white paper and a pen from his pocket and gave it to me.

“Write down your name and mobile.” Dia bilang. “We’ll get it settled outside without a case.”

I brightened up although pada mulanya saya ragu-ragu.

Namun, Joe menghulurkan saya his name card.

Detective Joseph O. Hutt.
NSW Sydney Police Force
(04) 98989 07077

Great, so he is a police officer. A detective! Damn, I’m screwed.

“I…ummm.” Saya gementar.

“Just do as I say.” Joe bilang. “Jeremiah is not a guy you want to mess with.”

Jere…I didn’t hear it clearly. What was his name again? Saya mau tanya, tapi saya gengsi. Hahahaha.

Fine.

Saya sudah tertulis satu garis dengan niat untuk menulis A… Amethyst Abraham.

Or maybe I should just write down Amie Abraham.

Atau…

Entah idea dari mana tiba-tiba saya tertulis Emily Rose.

Hahahaha! Biar dia takut nampak nama Emily Rose.

“Here.” I handed Joe the piece of white paper.

Joe looked down at the piece of paper in his hand.

“Emily.” Dia tersenyum. “It’s a pleasure meeting you.”

Mmm, yalah, pleasure lah sangat.

Argh! I need a hot tub bath and very good sleep.

Dua hari kemudian saya melangkah masuk to a convenience store untuk membeli a temporary sim card.

Ya, betul. Number handphone saya pun, saya tipu. Hahahahaha.

Setelah membeli dan mengaktifkan a one-week Australian mobile sim in a backup Samsung mobile phone that I always carry with me merentasi semua benua yang pernah saya jelajahi, I then walked to a nearby café.

“One hazelnut smoothie, extra cream and chocolate sauce toppings.” Saya order di counter.

“Would you like normal sugar, less sugar or no sugar, miss?” The barista tanya saya.

“Less sugar please.” I took out my credit card and paid for my drink. “Oh, add blueberry croissant to that.”

Getting my croissant and smoothie less than 5 minutes later, saya melabuhkan punggung saya on a large beanbag sofa at the corner of the café.

This place is very private and comfortable. Saya suka suasana di ni café.

I started sipping on my smoothie sambil menaip di Google searh bar.
