Chapter 10: The Conception

For the first time I went out to celebrate the turn of the year. Usually I am only at home while watching drakor or movies accompanied by many snacks that Papa bought. But this time I was with a special person. Ja. Now he's special to me. The attention he gave me, his kindness, his presence, maybe that's why he became special.

He took me to go to the paragliding in Batu. It's pretty far from my house. At first I was not allowed by Mama and Papa. But he boldly asked for immediate permission with a bright bribe of Mama's favorite red velvet moon and Papa's favorite special martabak. To find out just that, he kept poking me on whatsapp.

The journey to paragliding we traveled by riding a motorcycle. All I know is that he has a car. But he's saying his car's in the garage again.

"By the bike is more romantic than the car."

"What's romantic?"

"It can be helmeted, hug me from behind if you're cold, or not like what you're doing now. Hold my shirt until I fasten gini."

"Hehehe..fear of falling."

"Have I reduced his speed."

I laughed at the conversation we had on the road. He did talk quite a lot, until I was tired of responding to him. But he'll be angry if I don't answer. He said I should accompany him to chat so he doesn't get bored on a trip far enough.

Because the place we were sitting in was getting crowded, Brother Ryan invited me to move places. He said he wanted to enjoy nature with me. My hand was not taken out of his hand.

"It's straight back, isn't it, brother?" my real question is also still afraid if Sister Ryan messes around.

"Yes, deck. 1 Hour back. Take it easy, I won't say anything."

"Well, it's not wrong that I'm afraid."

It's 1 hour before the year changes. I don't know why I'm leaning my head on his shoulder. He did not protest either. Instead he said, "why suddenly do I put my head on my shoulders?"

"I'm sleepy, Brother."

"Do you want to buy coffee?"

"Make what?"

"Let's not sleep, deck."

He went to buy coffee after I said yes. Before long, he came with a cup of black coffee. The glass was in our midst. Then he took out a sachet of auans and rubbed it on my hand. "Mosquitoes are so many, deck. Ntar I can be scolded Papa Lo if the girls come home banging-bentol all," he said that I reply to laughter.

After rubbing it on my hand, he rubbed it on his hand. Then he told me to drink black coffee that didn't seem to be hot anymore. "So I asked the mas to give 1 spoon of sugar."

"It should be bitter" I said after drinking a mouthful.

"I'm afraid, deck."

"Huh? Scared why?"

"Fear you have diabetes."

"What the hell? How to take diabetes?"

"Soalya lo already sweet, ntar can be diabetic if the drink is sweet too."

I laughed, making him laugh. The conversation is so funny. Especially with her funny face and voice. Just pinch it.

"There's."

"What?"

"dither. To think first" he said, then pretended like people were thinking. But I had to wait a long time until he finally surprised me. Looks like he's found another fight. I hope this fight is better than it was.

"Now know, deck. The difference between kancil and lo?" his tanyanya makes me laugh. It looks like this fight is the same as it was. I still shake with laughter.

"If you steal cucumbers, if you steal my heart," he replied with a shuddering body. He who just mengombal amused, let alone me.

I admit, this one is really better than the one before. I laughed and seemed to be with my cheeks that were like apples. How could I not baper if he were to race like that. "I have one too" I said.

"What?"

"Mr Joker's brother, huh?"

"Not."

"That's not the answer," I said hitting his arm. He laughed instead, "what do I have to answer?"

Okay, I have to be patient. Fortunately, he was my cute prince. "I know," I answered

"Kok know?"

"Pantes his son is funny," I replied with an amused shudder. I thought my fight would fail. But Ryan laughed and it was funny. I don't know why he always looks so funny to me.

After I had a fight like that, we were both silent. Maybe he was looking for another idea? Or is he still a baper because of my fight? But when my brain thought the no-no, it changed its seat to face me. "Gue remember, there are people who call me the same shop," he said to make me remember what I said a few months ago. How did Ryan know? It must be Jihan who told you. The boy's mouth asked to be patched.

"There are people who say that I'm a store with a top rating. Many people stopped by and surely those people were also top level. Do you know who said it was like that?" ask her with raised eyebrows. He doesn't know or just wants me to be honest. He answered, but he opened his mouth. "When, the person who names me the same shop is the owner of the store."

So, I mean Brother Ryan I'm the owner. Why did the atmosphere suddenly change. Plus Ryan's sister keeps looking at me. My lips feel so frozen, to the point of wondering what to say.

"Gue don't know if you already understand or if you are bodo very. But I just wanted to say. If I like the same lo," he said that made frozen in my lips began to attack my body. "Since the first time I met the girl who returned the text of the drama script. My life is filled with curiosity. God answered my curiosity at the right time. Surely you do not know that in fact I have been eating lo since you same friends you truant to the canteen. That day I also skipped lessons because the stomach was sound. I am also concerned about you who are struggling. Keep luck on my side. I don't know why I pulled it that day either. And that day I knew your name, Tiara Zelmita. The girl with the beautiful face that made me fall in love."

I was stunned to hear his story. So he was curious about me because of that first meeting. "I don't know, since when did that liking grow. Our first meeting I remember, brother. Still can't believe I can meet a prince in the real world. The second meeting, eat together prince. It's an honor for me. But there was fear when Brother chatted me, deketin me, while many people who want to be posited by me. One side I'm afraid, but one side I'm smirking, can be close to the same handsome and cute prince."

"My feelings are starting to grow the closer we get. I also know the code that Brother once loved. Brother who has a romantic story in High School, because he's boned by a special person. When you ask me to hug, I hear you, it's just impossible for me to admit it. The song we sang together, I get it, brother."

She smiles. Pull both my hands and hold them. "Such a song, maybe too soon. But believe me if I like the same lo, deck. I want to make a story together lo, take care of you, and forever be close to you."

"Do you want me to grant you a wish, brother?"

"What do you want, so my girlfriend?"

"Who will refuse, if the prince asks."

That day, December 31, 2019. I'm officially dating the prince who stole my heart. It is only fitting that the wooden girl would accept her proposal even though she had just met for the first time. Because this prince has an allure that cannot be avoided.

"Happy new year princess" he said after the clock showed at 00:00. The sky was filled with flowers. He told me to lean back on his shoulders. I approached, but one question was asked. "May you pinch her cheeks, won't you?"
