She just fainted. In front of me. I immediately brought her into the clinic. I laid her in the bed and for the rest of it, I let the doctor took care of her. I should go back to the garage immediately because the meeting couldn’t begin without me.
I walked to the garage and everyone seemed nervous.
“How was she?” Jensen asked to me.
I explained to him that nothing serious. Doctor said she just too tired after a couple hours flight from Japan to Australia. Then we discussed about tomorrow’s strategy. Although I just being explained as generally because my personal strategy will depend on my race engineer which is Ella.
“Chun, you should have a personal meeting with Ella. She is the one that has specific strategy for you.” Jensen explained to me.
“I know. I just hope she is okay.” At that point I was really wished that she was not my race engineer. I was really worried with her health. At one side, I just wanted her to take a rest but in the other hand, I need her as my race engineer for my first race tomorrow.
I walked to the clinic with orange juice in my hand. Hopefully she will getting better. I stepped on the patient room and I saw her and him. I saw her with Baron.
Baron hugged her.
Suddenly I frizzed there. I couldn’t do anything, I really wanted to punch him, but who am I? I just his driver and I didn’t have any right to do that. But seeing someone that you love with other guy really hurt you. Moreover, the guy was someone that she ever loved before. Someone who broke her heart so deeply. Why she broke so deeply because she loved him deeply too.
At that point it seemed like all my encourages that I have for these 3 months suddenly erased. Her replied in all P.S that I sent to them suddenly mean nothing. Nothing because I knew, who am I that could be comparing with him?
I stepped back. I almost left the mobile clinic when I heard her scream.
“Let go off me!! Please!!” She screamed.
There was no one there since the doctors had a special meeting for tomorrow’s preparation report with FIA. I ran into the room and when I was there I saw Ella cried and she ran at me.
“Chun! Help me!”
I was so angry. What did he do until she screamed like this? “What are you doing?” I screamed back at Baron.
“Who are you huh?” He stood and our eyes met.
“I’m her driver and I want to pick her up for a meeting.” I tried to calm down my self. I immediately grabbed Ella’s hand and walked together out of the clinic.
She still cried. Actually I really didn’t know what I have to do. I didn’t dare to ask what happen between them. I was afraid. I was afraid that she will not answer me if I ask her. I didn’t want to hope too much.
We walked in the silence. Until she said “Why don’t you ask what happened between me and Baron?”
“What? Well…”
“So all the P.S that you have sent to me just a bunch of trash. You even didn’t dare to confront with him there. You choose to run away from him.”
I stopped my walk. She also stopped when she saw me stopped. “Who am I Ella? I’m just your driver. I was standing there as your driver. I didn’t have any right to punch him even I really want to.”
She mumbled something but I couldn’t hear her.
“What did you just say?” I asked her.
“Nothing.”
“But I hear you say something.” I forced her to repeat what she has just said.
She took a deep breath and said. “I thought your feeling is sincere and true. I thought… You love me.”
“I love you Ella. But you said that you are not ready for this kind of relationship. So I will not force you. I will be here waiting you until you are ready. I will pretend that nothing happened between us. I’m just your driver now. As you wish.”
“But… “
“But what Ella?”
“But… I started to…”
My heart stopped beating when she stopped her sentence in the middle. I felt like I found a glimpse of hope.
“I started to like you.”
I hugged her. In the middle of the way to the gate of Albert Park Circuit, I hugged her. “Is that true Ella? Is that true that you started to like me?”
“Don’t be too loud. People will hear us!” She scolded me.
“I don’t care! I want everyone in the world hear it!”
We laughed together. I was over with joy. A joy that I knew only could be brought by her.
“But I just said that I started to like you. That was not mean that I already completely like you or love you okay?”
“I told you. Even if it just a small hope, as long as I know there is hope, that will be more than enough for me.”
She looked at me and said. “I just realized today. I just realized that I like you was today. Baron actually talked to me when I wake up. He said how much he wanted us to come back.”
“So what did you answer to him?” I asked curiously.
“At that time he asked me that question that was time when I realized my feeling to you. I didn’t know why but suddenly I remembered about you. I asked to my self, so what will happen to Chun? Will he mind with this? When I realized that I care about what do you think about Baron’s question, I knew I started to like you. You know what… If you didn’t come into my life…. Perhaps I will say yes to him because I still love him. I also will still think that my little daughter always want her mom and daddy to be together. But because of you… I know what my daughter’s truly feel about me. I knew she just want me to be happy. And when I remembered about you… remember about those crappy emails that make my inbox full… I feel like.. how is my happiness actually already in your hand. You have offered to me. How about if I just need to take what you have offered to me. That what made me reject his request to re-married again with me. It’s enough. It’s enough that he hurt me too deeply in the past. I have given him another chance over and over again, but he didn’t use it well. I thought, that divorcement decision that I made was the best. I will not back to the past again just to feel again how it feels to be in sorrow. To be in deep pain. I will not. I have to grateful with what I have now. In present because present means gift. I should take that gift. That gift is your sincere feeling that really graphed in my heart even we didn’t meet each other.”
If I was a woman, I will cry when I heard her words. I never thought that my small action like sending her emails could make her moved. Could make her realize about my sincere feeling. I always avoided giving her a further action like calling her because I wanted to get close to her, bit by bit. I thought I still have to work harder to get her heart. But I was wrong…. She did understand my feeling and she decided to open her heart to me.
I hugged her tightly. She cried in my chest. I could hear her voice. “Chun… I thought I will never able to feel love again. How to being loved and love someone.”
“I told you Ella. You will never knew. We will never know before we try it. Who knows that a driver from Brunei could beat drivers from Europe?”
She laughed and said. “Yeah… who knows that a pathetic woman like me could being moved by a man than even much younger than her. That being scolded in his first day of his work.”
I saw her lips when she laughed. That desire came again. A desire to kiss you. To show how much I love her.
Then I kissed her. My lips and her lips met. This time with no guilty feeling. With no her cries in between.
That kiss… our second kiss… but much sweeter than our first kiss. Who said first kiss was unforgettable and unbeatable. It was not for me.
That night. A cold night, in March, Albert Park Australia. That night didn't feel cool again because of our hot kiss.
