Consorts of the Heart Mr. Billionaires

Bonus chapter.4 (Applying Dinda)

By morning, Aril was still sitting in the living room chair while looking at the suitcase containing clothes that he would bring out of the country. Yes, he is still upset because even though Dinda has said go, but the expression of a sad face can not be covered to make Aril understand if willing to just limited words.

"Why also the duty of the state should come now," muttered Aril.

Finally he moved from his seat, grabbed a suitcase and stepped towards the exit of the house with a modern minimalist design. His steps came to a halt as the ringing of the cell phone that was in his pants pocket sounded so loud.

Mr Al? Maybe he has reached the airport, Aril's inner when looking at the screen of his phone.

Without delaying the time Aril received the call.

"I'm on my way, sir."

[No need to go to the airport.]

"Huh, why?"

[We are not going. I sent out a planning team and the investor agreed, I've wanted to swim with my kids.]

Alfaro ended the phone call.

"Yes! Not to go" said Aril with great enthusiasm.

Aril turned back inside, he put his suitcase and lay down on the living room chair of the house. At first glance his smile looks fluffy while continuing to look at the ceiling of the room. Yes, he was thinking of an impromptu plan to propose to the idol.

Wait for me, your sadness will turn into happiness, inner Aril.

In a different place, Mother stepped with a flat expression towards Dinda's room. Since last night, the princess only wayangnya it looks very sad. I know because Aril has also asked her permission, she understands the words of the future daughter-in-law, but it seems not with Dinda.

Clamps.

The door of the room opened, Mother sighed slowly as she watched Dinda sit curled up on the bed. He resumed his steps sitting on the edge of the princess' bed.

"Are you a bit of Din's work?"

Dinda, who had been staring out the window, now shifted her focus to Mom. "No ma'am, I'm a permit."

"Why? Din I know you're sad Aril left, but this is also for your future too, not for long."

"Huh, yes Ma'am .. but today Dinda wants to be home alone."

"Aren't you going to Aril to the airport?"

"No, ma'am, maybe now the plane's flying."

"Yes, don't be sad continue to dong ... Mom's so claustrophobic."

"Why is Mom claustrophobic?"

"At least usually your face is like that, yelling like usually so that you can also scream. Morning I don't yell so tight."

"Yes, I've been there."

Finally the arch of a smile was seen on Dinda's face, though so thin that it could not cover the dominating sadness. He turned to his phone, there was no notification of anything that made the flat object vibrate. He wants to call first but he knows for sure that Aril is on his way. Because at dawn, Aril had sent a message if he would leave soon.

...***...

"Babe why is the guy early in the morning outside the aje?" ask Ncing.

"Morning exercise" he replied as he turned to Ncing, who was standing on the porch.

Ncing put the tray on the table and approached Engkong who was still running small in the yard. Although he was already seventy years old, but his spirit was still four-five.

"Breakfast used to be, anyways very tumben."

Engkong stopped his activities and stepped closer to Ncing. "From today, Babe wants to live a healthy life, so she can see Dinda married, have children."

"Well, that's why breakfast first."

"Yes, too, let's go."

Engkong was about to turn towards the terrace, but his steps came to a standstill when a familiar car entered the yard. He approached the car with Ncing. Engkong's cleft face was radiated when he saw the man who came out of the car was Aril.

"Good morning Engkong, Ncing." Aril shines his hands in turn.

"Tumben you're really here?" ask Engkong.

"Let's go ahead, have breakfast together," Ncing said.

"Yes Ncing thank you."

Aril goes hand in hand with Engkong and Ncing. I don't know what he's going to talk about, but it's definitely something serious. Aril's failure to propose to Dinda at a restaurant, makes him have other ideas that certainly challenge himself.

...***...

Dusk so quickly greeted. Dinda who was sitting on the porch chair still looked uneasy. How not, someone who should give news, but until this moment there is no message let alone a phone.

Dinda again checked his phone, this time he ventured to contact first he could not stand and also, he missed. The phone was attached to the ear, but not Aril's voice that he heard, but instead the voice of the mobile operator who was speaking, that the number in contact was not active.

"Kok is not active anyway .. if the phone is dead," murmured Dinda with an upset look.

"Gut mulu, shower there already afternoon," said Mother who suddenly was in front of Dinda.

"Where not to frown Mom, Aril's number is not active" said Dinda.

"Maybe he is again .. what is his name .. meeting, yes maybe he is again meeting," said Mother as she stepped sitting next to Dinda.

"Don't Aril cheat on you, ma'am" said Dinda with a face expression.

"Cheating? ... Gini ni, watching your saggy kite, anyways will go with Rumi's husband, where maybe he cheated," said Mother.

"Yes too."

In the middle of the chatter of the child and the mother, suddenly heard the sound of typical Betawi ondel-ondel music. Mom and Dinda turned to the page. Engkong, Ncing, some ondel-ondel and music players entered the front page. Yes, it was Engkong Dinda's car.

"Well, you're trying to bring ondel-ondel a lot of real here" said Dinda who remained focused on looking ahead.

"Yes yes, not usually, Engkong car also does not exist, the time is on foot," said Mother.

The ondel-ondel show began. Dinda and Mom approach Engkong and Ncing. Because the situation is so interesting, making the neighbors around come together to watch the impromptu show.

"Why, how come it's here?" ask Dinda curious.

"Not much to ask, just look a little," replied Engkong.

"Udah Din, enjoy the show, yes" said Ncing who looks very happy.

The instructions ondel-ondel increasingly attract attention, not only neighbors but people who pass by also stop by. Musical accompaniment from tanjidor, Gong, tambourines and other musical instruments accompanied the performance, until finally a large ondel-ondel approached Dinda.

Ondel-ondel danced around Dinda, until finally stopped in front of her. Engkong stepped, insert a mic through the mouth of the ondel-ondel that has been in the previous stel. While Dinda still looked confused, she could only remain silent in her own mind.

"Grandfather, for the beautiful woman who is in front of me now .. sorry that I came late" said a man who was in the ondel-ondel body.

Dinda's eyes began to glaze over, when she heard a voice that sounded so familiar. Yes, of course it is Aril, but it still feels so exciting because he knows very well his lover is very afraid of ondel-ondel.

"Aril," said Dinda.

"It turns out you still recognize my voice yes despite not seeing me from inside here .. I tried to fight my fear, in order to stand in front of you in a different and proper way. Today I came, with one question you have to answer .. There have been so many days that we have been together, he said, I still didn't expect this day to arrive at a time I didn't expect. I want something we dream of to come true, where you and I become ... Dinda, will you marry me?"

"Thank you! Accept it! Thank you!" The sound of the crowd was heard echoing.

Dinda's eyes warmed up, before answering, she turned to the side where Mother, Ncing and Engkong were standing. He seemed to ask for approval and of course what he got was a very compact head nod from all three. He also looked back to the front.

"Yes I want .. let's get married, '" said Dinda who could no longer hold her eyes.

Cheers were heard from the people watching. Some people helped Aril to get out of the body of the ondel-ondel. A moment Aril came out, with a quick movement Dinda immediately rushed to hug him.

"Thank you for accepting me" said Aril right in Dinda's ear.

"Thank you for realizing my dream .. Why didn't you tell me you didn't leave?" dinda asked as she continued to sob.

"The name is also a surprise" replied Aril briefly.

Finally happiness comes. It all started with accident and the throwing of Mom's shopping bag. They eventually became familiar as friends. Years of hiding in each other's feelings and finally revealing each other.

Marriage was Dinda's dream for a long time until Aril's priority to make it happen. This is proof that the comfort of a friendship can be a sense of more than that.

It would be painful if the feeling clapped one hand, but not so with Aril and Dinda because they fell in love with each other. Aril's struggle to get family blessing is not easy, he has to withstand the trauma.
