Delanie (Not a Wives Bet)

Towards marriage

After staying overnight Ricardo finally took me home, on the way somehow my heart was so heavy leaving Oma Geeta.

In just one night Oma Geeta was able to present the figure of a mother who had long disappeared from my life. Before we went to bed that night, Ima Geeta asked that she comb my hair before going to bed. Oma Geeta does it with a very careful and attentive heart.

At that time I felt like a teenage girl who was always noticed by Mommy, during her life Mommy often combed my hair and told me about various things with her.

" Why is it so sad ??" ask Ricardo

" Oma must be lonely, right??" I said to Ricardo, I can feel the same way Oma feels. He must have missed a person who could love him sincerely.

" That's it...Did you like it??" Ask Ricardo

" Off course." I said to make Ricardo proud and happy for a moment.

" But don't worry, I just like Oma Geeta, not you" I said, I didn't want Ricardo to think I liked him.

" How about we pick a wedding dress??" ask Ricardo

" No. I want to go home and take a shower and sleep a little bit" I said looking for an excuse so I could push back

" Well then I'll pick out a dress for you myself, I'll make sure you like it" Ricardo said

"But..."

" I told you I don't accept rejection" Ricardo said, leaving me speechless

I went back and took a shower, I felt like my body was already sultry because I didn't take a morning shower. I feel refreshed when I wash my body and hair

" This is Bi ni making ginger tea" said Bi Jida who arrived just entered my room, I could see the look of a sad face

" Thank you Bi" I said with a smile

" Sit down" I said

" T-.api"

" I know that aunt has a problem" I said without further ado

Suddenly Bi Jida cried in front of me, I could only pat Bi Jida on the shoulder so that she was a little calmer

" What's up?? just say it" I said

" I need 40 million non money, " Bi Jida said to make me a little surprised, I didn't have that much money at once.

" What's Bi for??"

" For my brother's non surgery, he suffered heart failure so he had to undergo heart ring installation surgery" said Bi Jida increasingly sobbing

I thought for a moment that 40 million money was not a small one, that's when I then checked my personal debit card balance. Really I was surprised to see the contents of the card amounted to 1 Billion rupiah.

My heart was stunned from where that much money reached my account, indeed every month I got rations from Okta company but it was only 10 million per month.

" What is Zio??" ask yourself, but you're grateful that I was able to help Bi Jida finish her brother's hospital administration fee.

Some days I was busy accompanying Bi Jida until I forgot about my business with Ricardo. Surprisingly Ricardo did not protest even this afternoon he came to visit me with Bi Jida in the hospital.

Ricardo even brought me some food wrappers and Bi Jida.

" Don't bother I can handle it myself" I said

" I'm just doing my job as a future husband" Ricardo said

"Well me and he talked for a while outside, Bi" I said as I pulled Ricardo's hand towards the Canteen

I ordered two cold Americano drinks for me actually a few days in the hospital made me a little saturated.

"'I'm asking you to keep an eye on the running of Okta's company" I told Ricardo I knew I wasn't potential enough

" Will be ready my lady without any orders I've done that" Ricardo said

Ricardo then took out his phone and showed some very important documentation.

" What is this??" say

" It's the ownership of the oma company Geeta company, he wants to give this company in your name"

" what?? Is that true??" I said I didn't believe it and didn't want to have that kind of thing.

" But Oma herself asked for it, she wanted the company to be renamed Del Company which means Abbreviation of Delanie"

" But I can't possibly agree to that?? I don't want to be tied up anyway" I still disagree

" It's good that I'll tell Oma Geeta even if I have to be sad because she must be disappointed"

Instantly I kept quiet and thought about how the old woman would feel if she was rejected, with a heavy heart I finally agreed to her

" All right you set it.." I said softly.

" really?? Oma must be very happy" Ricardo said

" This is because Oma is not because of you" I said back straightening

" Yes I know my mistress"

" Stop calling me that"

Suddenly I remembered the Nur Treatment and accidentally asked her circumstances. Ricardo was upset when I asked the young nurse how she looked she also tried to avoid us while we were at Oma's house.

" Don't ask weird stuff anymore, I don't want to talk about other people" Ricardo said

" He's not someone else he's Oma Loh's nurse" I said

" In fact he was Oma's previous aide's son, because he felt sorry for Oma sending her to school until she graduated from nursing school" Ricardo said

" He's married??" much

" b... Lum"

I felt that there was something strange but I didn't think much about it, I chose to enjoy some free time before I returned to Bi Jida and smelled the scent of the hospital and medicine.

Ricardo also said after almost 2 hours he accompanied me and Bi Jida in the hospital, he then resigned and I drove him to the parking lot.

" In two weeks we're getting married, I've got a dress, a building and everything we need to get married" Ricardo said before he left

" what?? Don't joke..You decided that yourself??" I said in a annoyed tone

" Yes, if you wait for your answer too long, and one thing our wedding invitation will come out tomorrow"

I fell silent as I stared at Ricardo's departure with his car, refusing to be meaningless. Actually I was saddened by my own life, I could never determine with How and with whom I would live.

" Why is this unfair god" I said as I looked up at the sky
