"Thank you for accepting my baby proposal!", Frans told me in front of our family. I didn't nod nor respond.
I left my finger touched by her until it was embedded in a diamond-eyed ring that did look very elegant.
He peed my forehead long enough. I could only close my eyes.
After Frans let go of his kiss, I saw my parents who looked very happy.
Especially papi, she was so excited to see me who was now engaged to Frans.
Then how were the two Frans' parents? They are just as happy as mami papi. It's just...
"Alright, now we have dinner first!", brother Nathan.
We all moved to a family dining table that was enough to accommodate about twenty people. But we're not that much.
Frans sat down beside me. My hand was always held as if I was going to run away from him. But..did he do!
"So, when are you planning on getting married?", asked Papi after we finished dinner.
Frans looked over and looked at me.
"Later Pi, after all my business is done. Tomorrow, Frans will also take Mom and Dad to London."
"Then how's your job here?" asked papi.
"Frans is just a Pi investor. And being a doctor in a hospital, is also just a contract system."
"So, you want to go back to London first?" asked Mami. Frans nodded.
"Yes Mi. There's something Frans has to take care of first! It's okay, baby?", Frans rubbed the back of my hand. I also nodded. I was hoping that you wouldn't have to come back here Frans.
"When was Frans? Papi would love to see you married!", said Papi again. Nathan and his wife looked at each other. So did Sakti and Sabrina who did know the plans Dimas et al.
"Maybe one to three months pi. If it could be faster, yes...Frans try it!", he said again.
"Heum, so it seems!", said papi.
The stale base was finished, all the guests were saying goodbye but not Frans. He came home later he said he wanted to talk to me before tomorrow night leaving for London.
"Pi, it's only half ten. Can Frans take Amara out?", Frans asked papi.
Nathan rounded his eyes.
"It's Frans' night. After all, you guys just got engaged instead of getting married. If there is anything you want to talk about, it can be here!", Nathan said firmly.
Frans looked at my eldest brother. And then after that he smiled.
"All right, brother!", said Frans.
"Can we talk to both baby?", she asked me. I don't want to even nod.
"We can talk in the back gazebo!", I said.
Frans also apologized to my parents and brother.
"Why don't you let Frans go alone with Mara, Nath? They're engaged. Not just dating!", papi told Nathan.
"New fiancee Pi. Not marriage!", Nathan said. Papi also could not say much if the firstborn had said so. They also rest in their rooms.
Not with Nathan. He watched Frans and Amara from afar. At least, if Frans was being rude to the youngest, he could hear it.
Back to the pair of fiancees who are now sitting in the gazebo.
"Baby!", Frans grabbed both my hands and kissed him with a friendly kiss. I slowly took my hand out of his hand.
"Aren't you satisfied now Frans?", I asked. Frans sat next to me. He grabbed my shoulder and put his hand on it.
"Not yet! How can I be satisfied, you're not married to me baby!", she rubbed my cheek. I looked the other way. But that quickly he grabbed my chin. Our eyes clashed with each other.
"Actually I'd like to spend the night with you before I actually go home to London. But it seems that Nathan's brother is now possessive, beyond Daniel's!", he said softly beside my ear.
"Don't think of anything!", I said as I kept my head away from her.
"I just want to prove that you gave yourself to me!"
"I want to get engaged to you Frans. But that doesn't mean you can touch me all you want! We have no legitimate ties!", I began to vent. Bodo is very much the same plan Dimas, Frans can 'eat' me!
After he was satisfied, he let me go. He rubbed my lips.
"This lips are mine baby! I'm not gonna let Alby or anybody take that away from me! Understand?!", he gripped my chin.
My breath is hunting, it feels like I can't stand to be in this situation.
"It's night! Go home!", I asked. Frans smiled faintly.
"I'm going home, but....!"
He rubbed his own lips while looking at me. Then he raised his eyebrows. What does it mean try??
"You don't understand baby? Yeah, that means you want me to stay here!"
I closed my eyes while squeezing my hands together because it was so emotional. But I'm trying to be 'inner'. Facing a lunatic like Frans, I can't go crazy. I know what Frans meant. Inevitably, I obeyed his will. With a little tiptoe, I fulfilled what he asked for.
Even in my heart, I feel like a very cheap woman! How can I feel worthy of Alby, the man who has already taken possession of my heart?
Frans smiled with satisfaction.
''I like you so baby! I don't think I want to go back to London."
I didn't respond to him. But after that he grabbed my waist.
"Can take me forward, your brother is watching us from before!" he said.
Nathan's brother watching me? That means he's looking...
"Sister!", as for Frans to Brother Nathan. Nathan just nodded.
"Home home, right?" asked Nathan. Frans nodded.
"I'm going home baby!", camel Frans to me. I nodded slowly. Frans came out of the papi yard. After Frans was gone, Nathan pulled me into my room.
"Sister! Slow down!", I said a little. Mayang who saw her husband like an emotion followed her to Amara's room. His intention to take a drink was also undo.
Brother Nathan pushed me into the room.
"What the hell are you Deck!", Nathan snapped. If my brothers already use the word deck, it means that I should be aware and be able to put myself if I am the youngest child in this family. And I just have to obey them.
Nathan's brother was ready to put his hand on my cheek, but Mayang held him back. I resigned myself when Nathan's brother would slap me.
"Don't flirt like that!", Mayang held Nathan's hand.
"You don't know what May did. What the fuck is a girl kissing a guy who just became her fiance!"
Mayang.
"Truly deck?", asked Mayang. I can't dodge, I can only nod.
They were angry and this rent saw me kissing Frans. How did they react when they found out I was 'so' with Alby? It's lucky Daniel knew.
"Yes!", Mayang held her husband's hand again. Nathan's brother peels his face rough.
"You said you didn't love her, did you? Why do you want to do that?", asked Nathan.
"I had to brother!", I bowed.
Nathan's chest is still up and down. Thinking about what the next step would be like if Amara just acted resignedly like that.
"Tomorrow, after Frans left for London. We will bring mami and papi to Padang!", said Mba Mayang.
I knit both my eyebrows.
"To the village of Mayang mba?", my question is. Mba Mayang nodded. Both parents Mayang Javanese mba but have settled there because it did set up ponpes there.
"Do mommy and papi want to?", I asked.
"God willing. Mba would like to invite them to be creative as well as friends Abi and Ummi mbak!", said mba Mayang.
"This is also one way to protect them both from Frans' threat. Because once Frans to London, I believe that mom and dad need protection. Brother does not want anything bad to happen to them!", said Nathan.
My eyes glazed. I heard Nathan's own words supporting me.
"Thank you brother!", I hugged Nathan's brother. She returned my embrace.
