Fragrant For Galih

Ep. 45 Perfumed Answers

"I..." Perfumed paused his speech.

"I'm sorry, I think I need to speak to Galih first before answering him. Just two." The fragrant answer then made all parents cringe at his heart. But how else? It was a decision from Wangi and everyone should respect it.

"Okay, let's talk." Galih.

"Emmm... All right, we'll leave you two here. You guys talk comfortably." Said Ridwan on Galih and Fragrant.

"No need, we're going out to talk, can't Galih?" Fragrant Pinta on Galih.

"Of course." Galih nodded and agreed to Wangi's parminuan.

"Alright if it's more life for you guys but Galih, please take good care of my son." Rendra said before Galih took Wangi away to talk.

"Of course om, I'll take good care of Fragrance." Answer Galih.

"I believe in you." Reply Rendra while patting Galih's shoulder.

"If so we say pa, ma, om, aunt." Pamit Wangi while greeting the parents alternately.

"Well, when you're done coming home, we meet at home, we'll listen to your answer when you're ready." Rendra's Message to Wangi.

"Yes pa." Answer Fragrance.

After the Galih and Wangi pemamilitan left the Admaja family residence with a Galih motorbike.

After about twenty minutes Galih parked his bike in front of a cafe. The atmosphere there was quite calm and quite comfortable to talk.

"Sorry, I have to take you on a motorcycle, your car I left at the Battalion's dormitory because I don't think we're going out like this." Galih said after they sat down, he felt bad for Fragrance and was afraid that the woman was uncomfortable when she was a screwdriver.

"I don't care, we didn't plan any of this." Answer Fragrance.

"Yes, it's just that I feel bad, I should have used papa's car but I will have to go back to the dorm after this, so there's no way I'll take papa's car." Bright Galih who still feels bad at Fragrance.

"Just calm... I used to be driven by a motorbike, sometimes I took Riko on his motorbike." Speak Fragrance so that Galih does not feel uncomfortable because of it.

"Owh is..." Sahut Galih felt a little more relieved.

"Oh yeah, what message do you want? Let me order." Kata Galih.

"Emm what is it? Matcha Latte only." Answer Fragrance later.

"Well, wait a minute..." Then Galih moved from his seat to the drinks counter and ordered drinks there. After paying him Galih returned to his place where Wangi sat waiting for him.

"Wait a minute, wait for the waiter to deliver." Fragrant nodded hearing Galih's words.

The atmosphere between them became a little awkward, the two of them were silent for a moment until Galih finally opened his voice.

"Scented... If you want to talk now, I'm ready to listen, whatever your decision will be I'll take it." Galih said that she was actually a little nervous about what answer she would hear from Fragrant. He did not know why he could this mouthful even though he did not expect much for Fragrance to be able to accept it. But somehow in his deepest heart Galih also hopes if Fragrance can accept it. It's nothing, just all this time only fragrant women who can be said to be closer or arguably also only fragrant women who are close to him lately and Galih is quite comfortable to be friends with Fragrance. It is possible that Fragrance is really a soul mate that God sent to fill his days that have long been empty after the departure of the Light.

"Please." Sahut Galih who stared back at Wangi, waiting for the woman in front of him to express his question.

"Galih, are you sure to accept this matchmaking? If it's because of my papa, I'll explain it to papa so you don't have to feel burdened and unwell to my family." Wangi said that he felt the possibility of Galih accepting it because he was forced or because he felt imitated by the orders of his father who incidentally was Commander Galih himself.

Galih sighed for a moment before answering Fragrant's question.

"It was my own decision without any coercion from any party, either from my papa or your papa." Reply Galih seriously while looking fixedly at Fragrance.

"Why?" Wangi asked wondering why Galih would easily accept the decision of the parents.

"Because it's you." Answer the ambiguous-sounding Galih in Fragrant ears.

"Because of me? Ye... Like me?" Tanya Fragrant hesitated with a sudden heart beat.

Galih smiling...

"No, em. I mean I don't know, so far I feel comfortable near you and be your friend, if you say like as a friend I like, but if you say like with a different meaning I can't answer it because my feelings for you still feel ambiguous." Answer the book honestly.

"Is it because you haven't been able to forget your ex-fiance?" Ask Fragrant by heart.

Galih nodded then then shook his head as well, making Fragrance even more confused.

Soon their order came, a cup of Matcha Latte for Fragrance and a cup of Espresso for Galih.

Galih sipped his Espresso before continuing his words.

"I always remember it because remembering it means I will never forget if I am guilty of it. But since knowing you, I began to realize that what he and I experienced was a fate that has been outlined by God. You made me more open-hearted and more accepting of God's destiny. Little by little I was able to remove the shadow of the Light from my mind. As you said, it doesn't mean I forget it but I will keep it as fondest memory as an album. Fragrant... You are the one who made me realize the meaning of life." Bright Galih with its symbol without cover-up.

"So you didn't have to because of my papa?" Wangi asked and Galih shook his head.

"Not at all, but for now I can't love you and I'm sure you don't love me either. It's just that if you accept me as your future husband, then I will try my best to learn to love you." The Calamity's answer adds to the vibe in Fragrant hearts.

"Come heart, just shut up for a second!" The fragrance in his heart.

"You sure?" Ask Fragrant once again.

"I'm sure." Answer Galih firmly.

Fragrant was silent for a moment and just stared at Galih who was sitting before her.

"Shy... Why are you so sure if I don't love you? It is precisely here that I am not sure if I do not love you, because the vibrations in my heart always come if I am with you or remember you. So maybe I already loved you first?" Perfumed heart that began to realize if the seeds of love for Galih began to grow since he and the man were always together every day. Galih who sometimes irritated him because of his silence, Galih who always made him worry when the man did not pay attention to his own health, It was Galih who made him fret when he met another woman and Galih whose heart was weak behind his calm and firm attitude. Unknowingly Fragrant always noticed the man who was now in front of him. The insensitive shift.

Perfumed to sigh so long as if he was tired. Then he took out his Matcha Latte cup and drank it then put it back on the table. Fragrant looked at Galih back and said...

"Alright, I also agree to it, I accept you as my future husband."

Seriate....
