As it rose, a commotion sounded again. Obviously, almost all of the bus passengers were men except Leni and another assistant named Dina. But unlike the two girls, Love is much different.
Love's appearance always attracts attention, especially once he opens his face cover. Red little lips, a pair of big eyes with pliable eyelashes, a pointed nose, clean yellow skin and a doll-like face. A smile is always on his face.
But their spirit was instantly broken by the introduction by Leni. "Come everyone! This is Mike's girlfriend. This ma'am was left behind by Mr. Mike's car. You guys have to respect a little!"
Love waved her hand. "Hello all!"
"Halo Ma'am... "
"Hello Mistress... "
The call to reply was not compact that provoked Love's laughter.
"Call me Love, my name is Lovely!" love said with a laugh. He could not hide his joy of being called that way.
"Wooow! It's Lovely's Mommy who's the artist, right? Singers like to play piano and guitar, right?" shouted one of the members of the group who was at the very back. He stood up while pointing at his phone screen. An article was seen with a photo of Love.
Everyone looked back, before looking back at Love in disbelief. How could a girl with a tomboyish simple and memorable appearance be an artist?
Then another cry sounded. "Bak Lovely! I've been your follower ever since I performed at the opening of the sport! Can you ask for his autograph, ma'am?"
Everyone was more amazed to hear the information, they looked at Love who then nodded.
Even Leni never thought that the little girl next to her was an art worker. But then he noticed Love's hand.
Of course, it was definitely not a hand accustomed to silence. A long tiny hand full of muscular veins arose, revealing a hard workout forged from small. He may also be a musical instrument player.
Love just laughed. Nodding without saying anything.
After that brief introduction, Love sat down next to Leni. For a while, Leni had a chat with Love. Nothing serious, just discussing some things that happened to be seen by them when the bus glided on the highway. Apparently this is not the first time Leni to Balikpapan.
Because Love had to get up before dawn to practice for a while before leaving, just a few minutes bus walk, he already looks sleepy. Not wanting to interrupt Love's break, Leni stopped talking.
While Love was asleep, the voices of the men behind her were even more engrossed in talking about her. Based on information from one of Love's followers, they began to explore information about the young girl through social media.
Even Leni secretly peeked at the information from her own phone after eavesdropping as soon as she made sure Love was actually asleep.
The young girl turned out to have a myriad of artistic achievements. They range from representing schools, institutions to countries to international piano competitions since he was just 10 years old.
The world of attracting new voices began to live when he was about to graduate Junior High School. But lately the intensity of Love's appearance reduced. The girl sang more on her video channel.
Love's social media account is actually managed by her artist management. But the account is also full of carefully selected Love selfie photos.
Some were alone, some were with friends in his class, there was also when he was with fellow artists. But more photos of him playing piano, guitar or singing.
After seeing the beautiful face of Love that looks from various angles and almost all of them display a face without make-up except during the performance, the, so almost all male employees of the Mahkota group who were on the same bus became new followers.
While the girl they adored fell asleep more soundly. Iba saw the girl's head occasionally hit the window, Leni also moved the girl's head to her shoulder. Then he smiled to himself. An idea suddenly floated in his mind.
Using her phone, Leni took a selfie with Love sleeping on her shoulder. Then with a smile, he posted the photo with the caption 'When a star do her sleeping beauty beside you!'
Once again Leni looked at her latest post. He smiles. Unlike Love in the original account, the sleeping Love looked like a plain baby. Very cute and adorable.
Slowly Leni sure, maybe that's why a handsome face but fierce style Mike could not resist the charm of Love.
Leni just intended to close her eyes when her phone vibrated. Once. Hmm. definitely like notification from the post just now. Leni smiled wryly without any intention of checking.
But, the vibrate notification continues to feel. Makes Leni gasp. He looked at his phone screen, and notifications popped up non-stop.
Oh my God, what happened!!
Hurriedly Leni pressed the phone screen and her eyes almost jumped out seeing the three digit numbers already liking her post. Hundreds of comments were also crowded at the bottom of the post. Leni can't say anything.
hey, my Lovely why is it with you?!?
- Who is this guy? Why is our queen sleeping so miserable????!
hey, he's in the same town as me!!! Holy hooch! Athaghfirullah!
- Wow, did not expect Madam Leni to be a famous artist!!
When Leni was still confused, the phone vibrated. This time it was not a notification but a phone call came in. Mike's name appears on the screen. Leni answered immediately.
"Hello?"
"Where do you know Lovely?"
Boo! Leni forgot that Mike was following her account too. "That's. I just got to know, sir," I'm Leni.
"you mean? Is he the same as you now?" ask Mike with a different intonation. Impressed stiff and a little sharp.
"I. iy. yes, sir! He was following you, but you're gone, so get on the bus with me and the group..."
"Now listen to me, Len! Delete your post right now! Stop this bus at the nearest place! I'll follow you there, '" cut Mike fast. There was a panic-stricken tone heard from his voice.
Leni glanced out the bus window. "But sir, we're already in the middle of the forest. Most later if you meet a shop or restaurant. Besides, you can't go back. We have to get here before tonight to the location, sir!"
Mike was silent before he spoke again. "good. I'll stop at the nearest restaurant, I'll give you the address, then you follow and stop! Children also need to take a break."
"Ba.. good, sir!" lenny replied nervously.
Love also woke up. The girl's eyes still looked sleepy and flickered repeatedly. "Who, Brother? Is that Mike?"
Leni nodded. "Yes, we're told to stop and he's waiting for you, Lov."
Love simply replied with a nod, before she leaned back and slept again. Unaware of the panic on Leni's face. Leni hastily opened her social media account.
Although a bit heavy, he deleted the photo he just posted earlier.
During this time Leni followers only dozens of people. In addition to coworkers in the office, friends of company partners or old friends while still in college, as well as some family members, no longer follow him outside the social environment.
There are others too a little. Even if the follower increases, at most only 1-2 weeks before again shrinking at the original number.
But with just a photo of Love, suddenly his account followers increased almost tenfold. For the first time his account was showered with thousands of likes in a matter of minutes.
It is remarkable the influence of the girl whose followers themselves almost reached 2 million.
She looks like an ordinary girl. Even if something is different, it must be her beauty. Leni really acknowledges that. But people who were prettier than this girl were also many. This girl also fell asleep and acted like an ordinary young girl.
There was nothing strange or exaggerated in his appearance. His clothes, his pants and shoes, even the backpack he put on his feet were not branded items. She is a simple girl for a famous artist. That's why Leni was relaxed.
But if Mike, the cold haughty guy, just sounds frantic and almost forgets his responsibilities, then Leni is sure, there is something extraordinary behind all the simplicity of Love.
Even without understanding the reason, Leni herself liked this girl. He never had a sister, and Love described the younger brother he wanted. The thought that made Leni smile.
Lovingly, he moved Love's head once more onto her shoulder. Love squirms and her hands wrap around Leni's arms. Getting more sleep into dreams.
