"Gue needs time to answer your questions, sister," Aliza replied.
"Okay, I'll wait until tomorrow" Arsen said.
"Gue hope you really think this is mature. That's the only way for this matchmaking to continue even if only temporarily. At least our parents will know if between us there is no match at all after establishing a marriage relationship" he added.
Aliza is eager to argue. Have they never known him more closely? Why not try it first. Who knows, they have interests and interests.
Why make the decision before trying?
Aliza was silent without any interest in answering.
"Lo didn't listen to me anyway?" annoyed Arsen who did not get a response from the girl in front of him.
Aliza looked at Arsen. "Gue listen. I need to make a decision tomorrow."
"OKAY. I'll wait for tomorrow. Now I'm anter lo go home! It's a shame" said Arsen staring at the watch on his wrist that had shown at eleven o'clock in the evening.
"Gue can be silent about the same bokap lo, bring his daughter home late in the mallem," said Arsen then stood up.
"Well, I believe the same, brother. That's why he's our mate" replied Aliza originally.
"Lo jago is also joking." Arsen looked at Aliza who was walking ahead of him.
***
On the way home only silence enveloped them.
Aliza is busy with her own thoughts, while Arsen is serious about driving.
"Oh yeah. I heard from Mommy you have a bakery." Arsen opened his voice in the midst of the chaos of Aliza's mind.
"Huh?"
"Ck! Lo daydreaming what the hell? Do not need to be carried around dizzy. I'm not going to ask for an answer if tomorrow you can't make a decision." Arsen tried to calm Aliza down.
However, he does not want to impose his will on others even if it is the only way out.
According to him, a decision can only be taken by the person himself without any other party dominating.
"Nih you drink first! Your gaze is so empty." Arsen gave a bottle of water that he had provided in his car if at any time he was thirsty.
Aliza took it and gulped it a few times.
"Take comfort first. Take a break tonight. Don't think about our matchmaking." Arsen gave me advice.
He was trying to understand what it would be like to be an Aliza. The girl was not there to refuse because it was her parents' order.
Arsen is the same. He also could not refuse this match.
Their situation is the same.
"Gue ain't papa, brother. I'll give you an answer tomorrow. You just calm down," said Aliza staring straight ahead.
Arsen nodded. "Okay, good to give you a timely answer. I can't agree with my plan."
***
This morning Aliza was ready with a blue shirt paired with black cutbray pants.
The girl accidentally left the room after both her parents had left for work.
He tried to hide his swollen eyes from crying all night.
He couldn't meet Arsen under these circumstances.
The plan is that he'll meet Arsen later that afternoon after his return from the store.
There are orders that he must handle himself.
"I went alone, sir," Aliza told the middle-aged man who was waiting for her in front of the car.
"Who? Why, Non?" ask Mr. Mamat as Aliza's personal driver.
Aliza smiled. "No papa, sir. I want to do it myself."
Mr. Mamat could only obey the daughter of his master.
After driving for half an hour, Aliza was immediately treated to a white car parked, similar to the car that drove her home last night.
"What does Aliza like, Mba?" ask Arsen to the employees who are there.
"Mba Aliza usually likes strawberry-flavored cakes, sir," replied the young woman.
"Yes, please pack one strawberry flavor!" Arsen turned around after getting a nod from the employee.
How surprised Arsen, now there is Aliza in front of him.
Arsen smiled. "When is it here?"
"Barusan dateng" Aliza bales.
Honestly Aliza was a little surprised to hear the conversation between Arsen and his employees.
Why order her favorite cake?
Though he can eat as much because this bakery belongs to him.
"Gue was your favorite cake. You say you like strawberries, right?"
Aliza nodded. "You don't need my cake, brother. This shop has me."
"Yes I know. But this is a gift from me" Arsen said after paying for the cake.
"Take it even if you're used to eating!" Arsen gave the neat cake in the box to the girl in the blue shirt.
"Gue said yes. Let me know later if you have the decision." Arsen walked out of the shop after getting a brief nod from Aliza.
Even the girl had not been able to say thank you. His tongue was very faint, as if he had not believed what Arsen was doing.
His heart throb was getting crazier, his hands were cold sweat.
Somehow it was always like that when he was with Arsen.
That admiration made Aliza put her hopes higher.
"Gue hopes we have a chance to be together even for a while because we're not meant to be lovers."
***
"Before I apologize, brother. I can't accept that contract." Aliza immediately said what she had thought matured all night to make her have to stay up late with tears that became a witness.
Tonight they meet again at the same restaurant as they have dinner with the family.
Arsen who heard that just nodded. "How do you want to go?"
Honestly Arsen was also confused if Aliza did not approve of his plan.
"Why don't we try first, after marriage we will know we are suitable or not. Well, if indeed we are not a match papa we can separate without having a contract marriage agreement," said Aliza.
"If we are fooled?" tanya Arsen looked at Aliza seriously.
Arsen just wanted to hear a response from Aliza. I don't know, like something's stuck. Seeing the look in the eyes of the girl in front of him was like something was different, but she did not know.
"We will continue this marriage" Aliza replied seriously.
Yeah, that's his hope.
"Where is my boyfriend?"
Aliza breathed a heavy sigh. "It's up to you to continue your relationship or break up. I don't want to tell you to killusin Risa."
"Do you mind if I continue my relationship?" ask Arsen carefully.
Aliza shook her head steadily. "No."
Lie if he doesn't mind. How can he marry someone who is still in a relationship with another woman?
That's very painful.
But this time he must be strong to accept all the risks.
"OKAY. I'll keep going" Arsen broke up while looking at Aliza seriously.
There is something that looks stuck in the eyes of the girl like not accepting with Arsen's decision.
