Married ?
I've been hearing this word a lot lately.
Not in the office not in the apartment and not in the orphanage.
I feel like I can handle every horror someone mentions this one word.
And this time, I heard it again...
Make the umpteenth time, from my dear brother's mouth.
Inner Qirani, while looking fixedly at the brother who is now enjoying a cup of sweet black coffee.
" sister... "
" Hmm ? "
" What is the growth of the Arga company ? "
" Good, the stock has started to rise slowly. The benefits for our company have also begun to appear. Maybe mmmm, next month we can start charging. "
" ooh... Good riddance... "
" Why ? "
" No... "
" Are you afraid Arga will lose his company in the near future ? "
" It's not that. "
" Just calm down... As long as you're not married to Arga, we can still relax. The plan will continue after you marry her. "
" ooh... "
" When, then ? "
" I don't know. "
" Mom don't want to wait too long. "
" Should ya ? "
" Not really. Without you marrying Argapun, the plan will continue. Tapiiii. a crushing blow will be felt by the Bima family if you can marry Arga. Arga keys. "
" yes. "
" If you don't want to marry Arga, I'll do a backup plan. Destroying them through the insiders. Married or not married to Arga, will not affect your plans. This is purely a personal matter of mama and Bima's extended family. You, me and Arga, as flavor enhancers, baby. "
" I get it. "
" Yuuffthh.... Honestly, I don't want you involved, Divy. Your problem with Arga must also be complicated. If coupled with the affairs between this large family, fear that you will suffer even more. "
" No koq... I want to get involved because it's my mom's business. I'm a mama's son, I should be able to help mama in everything. "
" It's true... "
" Alright, I'll continue my part. "
" Are you sure ? "
" Yes... "
" all right. If that's what you want... "
Aditya got up from his seat on the tapestry. Qirani turned her gaze towards the outside of her apartment window, staring at the night sky.
Before, I was very excited for revenge.
But getting here, seeing and feeling Arga's concern for me and the orphanage kids, made me weak.
From the story of the mother and the children there, Arga was very considerate and sincere, even before I was here though.
My mom is very important to me.
Arga.
" Some are daydreaming... "
A voice of reprimand made Qirani turn his head.
" You ? "
Just thought of, it's nongol...
What brother invited him to come ?
Qirani finds a cheerful Arga figure approaching him with a sizable box package.
" Hazelnut brownies, who knows you like. "
Arga said as he sat on the rug, faced with Qirani, then offered what he had brought.
" He really likes it. Relax, your gifts will not be wasted. "
Aditya said with a small laugh.
" Dit, your place is very comfortable... "
Praise Doni while watching every corner of the room.
" I'm so grateful to Divya, she's my interior design. "
Aditya Sahut.
" Whoa, indeed... A place to live will feel comfortable if there is a touch of a woman yes. "
Said Doni still amazed.
" But there is also a messy place to live, even if one occupies a woman. "
Indra said while glancing at Intan.
" But you're the best at home ! "
Intan protested while pinching Indra's arm.
" Okay ! Sick ! "
Indra complained that he could not escape.
" Fresh drinks, gangs... "
Said Aditya who suddenly had brought several bottles of cold soft drinks and placed them in the middle of the tapestry, where there were Qirani and Arga.
" Mantul... "
Impal Indra who immediately sat next to Arga, followed by Intan and Doni.
" I cut it up first yeah, the cake .... "
Qirani said as she stood up, deliberately avoiding Arga who kept looking at her.
" I'm helping you... "
" No need, just sit there and act as a polite guest. "
Strictly from the talk and the look in the eyes, Qirani cut off Arga's speech.
Then, without wasting any time, Qirani twisted his walking body leaving Arga.
Arga who had intended to stand up, sat down cross-legged on the tapestry limply.
Indra and Doni feel compassion for his best friend. Slowly, the two patted Arga on the shoulder slowly.
" Patience... He needs time, Ga. "
Doni said half a whisper.
" Yes ... I-i know. "
Sahut Arga who still continues to stare at the figure of Qirani when stepping towards the bar table.
Intan let out a long sigh, feeling that Arga looked so pitiful in his eyes.
Arga really died love with that girl...
Adhisty, I have never been more than a friend to this day.
But better this way, being a friend is also not something that hurts, rather than continue to hope Arga gives space in his heart for me, it is impossible...
Intan's mind, without realizing it, had a small smile on the corner of his lips.
Adit's not bad either...
He might be the best for me, right ?
He looks like he's welcome with me.
Connect Intan while turning his eyes to Aditya who is busy preparing drinks for all of them.
" Is there something funny ? "
With a strange looking face, Indra whispered to Intan.
" Iihh.. make a surprise ! "
And Intan completely flinched, breaking her daydream and turning her gaze towards the side.
" Adit cool is... I think I'm in love with him too. "
Indra said while smiling funny with a voice that was still whispering.
" Not funny ! "
Umpat Intan is upset, feeling mocked.
" Haha....Kidding, Intan. Sorry, I'm still a normal koq... "
" You guys are... Joking what the hell, whispers mute. Huh, hajar deh ! "
Said Aditya pushing a tray filled with a one-liter bottle of orange juice, a few empty glasses and a few bottles of fizzy drinks.
" Wokay ! "
Doni was full of enthusiasm and became the first to take a bottle of soft drinks.
" Please... "
And Qirani swiftly put two dishes containing brownies that have been cut into pieces.
" Now, I also brought a lot of chips... "
Intan opened the shopping bag that he had brought, and sure enough, several packets of chips with various variants were placed in the middle of them.
" Well, if it's complete gini, how about we watch a movie ? Definitely exciting... "
Aditya said.
" Agree ! "
" Okay too ! "
" Come, find a horror movie ! "
Greeted cheerfully by everyone, Aditya also began fiddling with his television channel.
" dt... Horror is ! "
Doni.
" Thriller is good... "
Intan's Proposal.
" Which one is it ? What horror thriller ? "
Aditya began to confuse choosing.
While others argue looking for a movie to watch, Arga still keeps glancing at Qirani who is busy with her cell phone in the corner of the sofa.
Arga took a small plate and a fork, then moved two pieces of brownies to the small plate.
Then he stood up slowly, stepping towards the sofa without making his friends notice him.
Now Arga was sitting right next to Qirani, still hesitantly trying to shift his seat to be closer to Qirani.
" The brownies are a favorite of someone who is very important in my life to this day... "
Arga said while cutting small brownies with a fork.
Qirani lifted her face from her mobile screen, and found Arga who was sitting right next to her.
Since when has he been sitting next to me ?
Inner Qirani astonished.
" Someone said, eating small pieces tastes more yummy than directly devouring them with large pieces... "
Continue Arga who thrust the brownies towards Qirani.
" That's actually koq... Eat with large pieces so can not enjoy the sweet chocolate and soft brownies. "
Sahut Qirani while accepting what Arga proposes.
" Mm... That person, his name is Qirani Asha, he... "
" The orphanage girl you always played with, didn't she ? Which you keep harassing ? What do you have to obey ? Who can't say no, because you can't be rejected ? Which... "
" You ? .... "
Arga looked dumbfounded looking at Qirani who was seen replying to her gaze hatefully.
" Yes, I am indeed Qirani, I remember everything. His se-mu-a ... "
Sahut Qirani with a soft but spicy tone of voice.
" I love these brownies, really like them... I even held back my saliva when you presented it at that time in your office. "
He continued to bribe little by little the brownies in his hands and continued to look at Arga who still looked in shock.
" So you've been all this time... "
" Yes, all this time I was Qirani, but I was also Divya. I intentionally. "
" But you're different, you're changing. Everything's changing... "
" Then why ? You don't like me now ? "
" No. I mean, I... "
" I want to repay you. I hate you. I really-hate... "
" I've been looking for you everywhere, I... "
" I know. But I don't want to go back to you that fast. I'm not the old Qirani, dear Arga... "
Hearing Qirani's last words, Arga gulped because he felt defeated.
" I need to talk to you a lot right now ! "
And without further ado, Arga drew Qirani's hand.
" Stop ! "
Qirani exclaimed while stomping Arga's grip.
Qirani's high tone of voice made the others turn their heads towards them.
Aditya, Intan, Indra and Doni stared at Arga and Qirani who were now standing and staring at each other.
" What's up, Ga ? "
Ask Doni.
" You guys fight ? "
Ask Indra.
" div's... "
Aditya called out to Qirani in surprise.
Intan did not make a sound, but his gaze was also full of questions the same as the others.
" Dit. I need to talk to Divya. May ? "
Ask Arga without further ado.
" okay... As long as Divya agrees with you, I won't ban it. "
Aditya answered Arga's question while glancing towards Qirani.
" We need to talk. There's something I need to explain to you and it's important. "
Arga looked expectantly at Qirani and tried to ask for understanding.
" Nothing to explain. Everything is clear koq. "
Qirani remained in his stance.
" please... "
Arga really looked desperate this time.
" Mending you two talk, let it be both plong, that is. I know, I'm an outsider, but I'm glad you're heartbroken, that's not good either. Talk about it all, get out your uneg-uneg, and find a solution together for your problems. It will be more comfortable in the future, whatever your decision, at least, it's your decision together. "
Intan tries to be a mediator.
" right... I think Intan is real. "
Connect Doni while nodding.
" Yes too.... Than you keep getting closer to dodge, pull, and not over... "
Timpal Indra agrees.
Qirani's scathing gaze towards Arga weakened. Getting advice from others like that, Qiranipun tried to be wise, respecting the opinions of those around him.
" all right... I'll follow what you want. "
Qirani finally decided.
And the others were compact to smile with relief at Qirani's decision.
" Come, let's talk in my room... "
Take Qirani and walk ahead of Arga after releasing Arga's hand grip first.
Full of smiles, Arga follows him, followed by the views of his friends and Aditya.
Without waiting for Arga and Qirani to enter Qirani's room, the others returned to focus on the previously disturbed spectacle.
Good riddance...
The sooner Divya makes a decision, the sooner the next plan begins...
Inner Aditya with a sly smile at the corner of his lips.
Why does Adit's smile look so weird...
I feel, Adit koq is suspicious ?
Inner Intan who accidentally looked at Aditya and found Aditya's smile that was visible only for a moment.
