Heart Treatise

Episode 17's

Soraya was right in front of the figure of the man she was looking for, while the man in front of her who was none other than Rudi looked confusedly at Soraya. Because the woman in front of him is currently pulling his arm, while saying softly, but he can still hear, "Thank you for still here."

The family from Soraya began to descend the stage to approach him. Soraya turned to look at them, but her hand could not be held firmly by Rudi's arm. It was as if he was channeling his fear there. This is the only way regardless of his family's plans, he thought.

Rudi who felt his arm gripped firmly just silently did not protest Soraya's behavior. He was just understanding what was going on.

"Who is Soraya?" ask Bramantyo to her.

"He's Soraya's partner, he's the one Soraya just told me about."

Soraya was already unable to judge the expressions of the people around her. His thin lips tightly clenched, Soraya ventured to look up at Rudi who was staring at him.

Rudi could catch the fear and pleading gaze from Soraya's eyes. He has met many people, understanding the expression and even the facial expressions of his patients. And again he was no stranger to the actions Soraya had done to him.

"What does my nephew really say?" ask Bramantyo to Rudi.

Not yet Rudi answered, Soraya increasingly gripped his arm. His shoulders looked stiff as if they were preventing Rudi from saying words. Rudi who understands the situation, tries to calm the person beside him by nodding to the question.

And it proved Soraya could be calmer. Precisely now Om Bramantyo is extending his hand and greeted by Rudi, then they introduce themselves to each other.

"Excuse Om who did not talk about the problem first, and for Rudi we need a lot of time to chat further in the next day. Now, let's enjoy the party tonight first" said Om Bramantyo patting Rudi on the shoulder. Then he greeted the other guests.

Rudi and Soraya remained in silence, amidst the noise of the invited guests. The focus of invited guests has also been diverted by the excitement of the party that is underway. Now Soraya began to open her voice but still remained with a lowered gaze, "We need to talk."

"Yes," said Rudi briefly, he then moved stepping out of the crowd and reflexes followed by Soraya. Even without realizing it Soraya's hand was still swaying on Rudi's arm.

Now they are both in the outside area of the hotel building, precisely near the Wijaya hotel swimming poll.

"Married me," Soraya said softly, staring inside the person in front of her.

Rudi's eyes turned serious, when defined his physical appearance is classified as perfect. High, his shoulders are firm, his face lines are handsome and his eyes are sharp. Soraya with her confidence without a second thought dared to ask the man to marry her.

His seriousness did not last long. The proof is now Rudi looks relaxed in response to Soraya's speech. He only considered Soraya's remark to be the wind then.

"It's cold, we better go back inside" he said, switching the conversation.

Soraya shook her head, "I don't want to go back there."

"Then I go first" said Rudi then turned to leave Soraya.

Soraya, who realized that Rudi was getting away, hurriedly stepped in the way of Rudi. "Marry me" he said again.

Rudi chuckled, without a sound.he frowned, Let alone this joke, he thought. "It's night, you better get back to rest."

"I'm not kidding, which I'm saying is serious." Soraya looked up and dared to look at Rudi. Rudi also did not find a joke there, the gaze of the woman in front of him looked desperate. Not wanting to think more, Rudi denied it by saying, "I'll just marry the person I love."

Rudi's words were able to make Soraya flinch, her breathing choked. Love?. He was determined, something he did not think at all but deep down he believed there was trust in the person before him.

They remained silent long enough. Rudi's body was about to turn around, but Soraya swiftly caught Rudi's arm, not getting him away.

"I'll take you home" Rudi said at the end.
