Choice Matchmaker For Reva

24. Open your heart

"I've proposed to her, I've got the answer, but why am I so afraid to step up." Aldo drove his car restlessly, between believing and not believing Reva had accepted his proposal, was it really his wish, or was he running from his broken heart. Aldo exhaled, resting his shoulders on the steering chair. Until he stopped in front of his old house.

"Dev, are you inside?" Aldo knocked on the door.

Before long the door opened, sure enough his best friend was still there and seemed to have just woken up.

"What's wrong?" Her speech.

"I just want to know how you are, I'm calling you but your phone's off." Aldo looked at his friend's face, still a little pale.

"I'm fine. Why did you come here, instead of that time saying it wasn't safe to come back here?" Dev said as he rubbed his face.

"I don't think it's okay, the problem isn't that bad." Aldo turned to walk towards his house in the follow Dev who was still curious about his best friend who suddenly returned home.

"You want to stay over?" Dev came in and sat down in the living room.

"See, look later." He said while taking off his coat and sitting down.

"It looks like you're having a problem." Guess it.

"No." Reply Aldo briefly.

"Is Reva healed?" Dev asked, making Aldo open his eyes.

"He's home, I'm driving him." He closed his eyes again.

Quiescent.

Both of them were busy with their thoughts.

"You think about it?" Aldo suddenly asked as if he knew the contents of his best friend's head.

"You too." Dev laughed shaking his head. He was funny what they were talking about.

"It's ridiculous, but I'm really thinking about it." Aldo laughed at himself.

"What's wrong, is he mad at you?"

"No, he accepted my proposal." Speech weak.

Dev was silent, something was piercing in his heart. Want to be happy to hear him want to also grieve and scream as much.one side of his heart is happy he no longer cries as much as he likes because of him, but the other side of his heart is very hurt."My lover accepted my best friend's proposal. My fiancee is getting married." Just being able to catch your breath suppresses the feeling of numbness inside the chest.

"Blessed, soon you'll be her husband." Said later.

"Is he running from you?" Aldo looked at his best friend.

"From the beginning it was so, he just did not realize that he also loves you, he did not realize since he knew you his heart was double no longer like it used to be. His eyes were so resigned when he looked at you, different to me, he never was, to be honest it made me jealous." Dev explains.

"I'm afraid to have only his body, but his heart for you." Aldo's still not sure.

"If you don't marry her, it means Galih Anggara will have her." His words made Aldo change his sitting position.

"You know him?" Aldo asked very curious.

"No, but I've seen photos of both of them. Sergeant Galih is embracing Reva's shoulder. He still diligently called Reva up to this point, even to mother as well." Clearly again.

"What's the reason they split up?" Aldo was very curious.

"That's it, but Reva said Reva didn't want to wait, and Galih wanted to pursue her career first." Dev poked his two shoulders.

"I'll get married soon." Aldo said sure.

Dev looked at her for a while then laughed at hearing her.

***

Four days passed. Reva has healed her legs are no longer swollen and sore, she can already walk without using a wheelchair. But this weekend felt different, since the day he received Aldo's proposal he had never met again, not even a phone call and a message.

"Is he not serious about his proposal?" Reva tapped her finger at the table, while her left hand held her chin up looking thoughtful and seemed bored as well.

"Darling someone came looking for you?" Mother's voice made her look.

Not yet he moved the person who was looking had walked up to him, this time he was wearing a long-sleeved white T-shirt, with gray pants. A face that is always fresh with neat hair, do not forget a sweet smile and a loving gaze to him.

"Why daydream, what are you thinking of me?" He stood very close to the hijab girl.

"You think?" Reva asked back with a slight tilt of her head.

"No, my leg's healed." He answered without seeing the person in front of him.

"Can we go for a walk today?" Ask very carefully.

Reva looked at the handsome man for a moment, then she went inside to change clothes. It didn't take long Reva was ready.

Aldo looked at her with admiration, not expecting to be able to take her away as a fiance. All this time fantasizing he did not dare.

"My mother went for a walk with Aldo." Reva grabbed the hand of the mother who was busy with her flowers.

"Yes, you guys be careful on the road." Mom stopped caring for her flowers.

"I'll take care of him, ma'am." Aldo kisses mom's hand.

"I believe you." My mother smiled to send them away.

On the road both were silent, until stopping at a shopping center. Aldo takes her down, Reva just follows him. They walked around the place until they arrived in front of the jewelry store. Aldo grabbed and clasped Reva's fingers to make him surprised not to play but Aldo did not release him.

"I'm looking for a wedding ring." He told the shop clerk.

Not to mention being surprised by his treatment, now he was even more surprised to hear what the man said.

"We bought a ring?" Reva asked.

Aldo did not answer even he was busy looking at the model of the ring in front of him.

"Which one do you want?" Aldo looked at his girlfriend's face.

"Where is it." The answer is still with a look of wonder.

"Then this one is it." Aldo pointed to one of the.

"We measure his fingers ."

The shop clerk measured Reva's and Aldo's fingers alternately. Aldo was still holding Reva's hand until he got back in the car just off it.

"I don't think you're serious." Suddenly Reva said it.

Making Aldo turn off the car again. switched to face Reva who was sitting quietly on his left. Aldo looked at him for a little while. He saw her behavior a little demanding this time, but he was happy to see it.

"I'm still taking care of it, I need to talk to mom and sister as well." Obviously, then start the car again.

Reva was silent along the way, Reva had no idea where Aldo was going to take her but she did not ask either. Until they arrived at the beach that some time ago they were there spending dusk together.

Reva got out of the car with a cool breeze hitting her.

"Are you sure you're gonna marry me?" Aldo approached him.

"I'm sure." Reva faced her face.

"What did you ask of me?" Ask Aldo again.

"I'm not asking for anything, I'll take whatever you give me, just as it doesn't become a burden to you." He spoke in a soft voice distinctively to himself.

Aldo was more stunned, he did not expect what he heard from his lover's mouth. Makes him think he'll never let go of it no matter what.

"I love you so much, whatever you ask I'll do even my life." Said meanly.

"I'm gonna ask you a lot of things."

"What?" Aldo looked into his eyes deeply.

"Never leave me, no matter what happens, I'm the only one in your life."

"That's for sure." Aldo was still staring at him.

"I want to get married soon, and there's no party." Again, this time Reva said it and then looked down.

"Well, I'm going with everything you want, but can I just ask you one thing?" He said expectantly.

"What?" This time Reva raised her head looking into the man's eyes.

"I want you to open your heart to me." Steady speech.
