A few months have passed. Now Shaki Kaivan and Hyuna have graduated High School and are about to enter the world of college. They choose different majors but still in one of the best campuses in Indonesia. Actually Darel has asked his sons and daughters to go to school abroad, in a US country for example. But Hyuna refused on the grounds that she did not want to leave Darel alone. Shaki and Kaivan are also the same so Darel decides to go to the same school in order to take care of each other.
Hyuna studied in education, Shaki studied in architecture, and Kaivan chose to study in agriculture. Shaki chose the department because he wanted to continue the Darel business because as we know Iwang is more interested in becoming a doctor than a businessman. Hyuna herself wants to give opportunities to children who are less able to get an education. Hyuna also aspires to establish a school for those who cannot attend school due to limited costs. While Kaivan himself aspires to be able to advance farmers in Indonesia in order to be like an outside country.

Dinner this time was so crowded. Juna and his small family, Randita and his small family, and Kaj have dinner together at Darel's house. Darel deliberately invites Kaj because there is something he wants to say about the man. Arya herself is actually confused why her uncle could invite Kaj who incidentally is an outsider to have dinner with the family.
"It looks like we'll meet more often after this." joked Iwang as they walked towards the dining table.
Iwang walks beside Kaj while on the other side Shaki feels very suspicious about Kaj's arrival this time. Somehow his feelings said something was going to happen and it was related to his little sister. Shaki stared at Hyuna who was chatting with Naruka. The girl had previously been cold to Hyuna, but now she had returned to the Naruka they knew. Naruka claimed not to silence Hyuna but because there was a problem so carried over to accidentally silence her cousin's sister. Though the truth is that Naruka was deliberately cold to Hyuna. He returns to his usual attitude because he wants to attract Kaj's sympathy that he is a gentle and cheerful girl, also so that his family does not suspect him. This is all the sedition of Zoe, her mom.
"Hyuna, papi wants to have a serious conversation with you" Darel said.
Darel opened his voice amid the silence created at the dining table this time. As soon as Darel spoke, all eyes stared at him and Hyuna in turn. Shaki squinted increasingly as if hoping that what he thought did not happen. Shaki then turned to look at Hyuna who was staring at Darel with a look of confusion.
"But just talk, why ask permission first?" hyuna.
Darel. Take a deep breath, then...
"The fire has thought about this carefully. Papi intends to match you with Kaj. Papi feels he is a suitable man to replace papi take care of you. Papi had seen how he had behaved all this time. Even Papi also noticed that he helped you several times. So, how?! You want to make a match with Kaj?" darel asked, looking at his daughter.
Everyone was surprised to hear Darel. No exception to Hyuna. He was shocked and looked shaken. Hyuna was still digesting what her papa had just said. Hyuna stared fixedly at the papi as if looking for doubt from the face of the man who had aged more than half a century. Nil. Hyuna did not find that doubt on her papa face.
"Did papi have thought of this before?! They're getting married, pi, not on a show. A lot of things changed after they got married. Did papi think about it?!" ask Shaki.
No!!! Shaki did not trust his sense of hearing. Shaki didn't want what he was thinking to happen. His sister will be arranged. She's getting married to a man she doesn't love.
"Yes, dad! Hyuna is very small. He was just about to enter the world of college. Isn't it too soon to set him up?" ask Iwang.
Iwang applies as big brother to his little sister. He was so protective of Hyuna. To Iwang, Hyuna was still the little boy she had taken care of first. He was a one-year-old boy who taught him how to walk. It was a three-year-old who often whined spoiled at him. No!!! Iwang did not want his sister to grow up so fast.
"The fire has thought this through. Believe me, papi only wants the best for Hyuna. Papi loved her very much too. Papi couldn't have plunged him into the abyss of hell" Darel said.
Hyuna looked again at Darel as well as Darel who was looking at Hyuna as if asking Hyuna to agree to this matchmaking. A split second passed, Hyuna looked towards Kaj who looked so relaxed. So annoying to Hyuna's eyes. How could the man look calm in such a tense situation?!
"Alright, if papi wants this matchmaking. Hyuna will take it." said Hyuna softly.
Everyone cheered for being happy with this match. Darel looked so happy to hear Hyuna's answer. Shaki just silently looked towards his little sister then let out a heavy sigh. It's always like this. Hyuna always put the happiness of others above her own happiness.
Among the cheers of the Darel family are the happy match between Hyuna and Kaj. There was someone who seemed to be holding back his anger. His hands were clenched under the table until his fingernails turned white so strongly that his fist was.
"This time you've really lost, Naru!!" whispered Zoe who was sitting next to her daughter.
Naruka stared intently hatefully at Hyuna. Then stare at Kaj's heart full of cravings. Naruka was not willing. Only he can have Kaj, not Hyuna.
You always rob me of what should be mine, brother!!! But not anymore!!! Kaj mine!!!! Only mineuu!!!!!
"Alright, after dinner you go for a walk to get closer. How, Kaj?!" darel asked, looking at Kaj.
"I'm up to Hyuna if she wants me to go too" Kaj said.
"Yuna?!" looking towards Hyuna.
Hyuna who was daydreaming was immediately jolted because of Darel's call.
"I.yes, pi?" hyuna asked because she did not listen to what Darel had just said.
"How about after this you go for a walk?! Well, it's to get closer before you're officially married" said Darel.
"Hyuna is up to the papi." said Hyuna resigned.
"Alright, later after eating get ready" said Darel.
Hyuna just nodded her head. As soon as she finished dinner, Hyuna walked towards her room to prepare. This time Hyuna wore jeans then wore an oversize hoodie that made her curves perfectly covered. No one would have thought that behind the oversized hoodie was a crazy body.
"Well that's him. There you go. Hyuna is Kaj!" Darel.
"Of course, om. Then we go first." said Kaj.
********
"Why do you agree with this match?!" ask Hyuna.
Now they are in a night market in the city center. At first they were confused about where to go until finally they decided to go to the market tonight.
"Eitherway. Maybe it's your papa begging me to take care of this little baby!" said Kaj.
Little baby?!!! Hyuna gaped at Kaj's words. It was as if she said Hyuna was a little baby?!!!
"Little baby?!!!" jolt Hyuna did not accept.
"Why?! Want angry?! It's a little baby!!" kaj flat said.
"Don't get me wrong!!!! gini-gini I'm that big yaaa!!!" hyuna.
Kaj stared at Hyuna with a difficult look and Hyuna closed her lips when she noticed the ambiguous words coming out of her mouth.
"M..I mean that my body is already big!!! I'm not a kid or a baby anymore!" hyuna said straightened out her previous words with a misbehavior.
"It's a habit!!!" kaj said flatly and then looked ahead.
Hyuna was so furious with this man beside her. I want him to scratch that face.
"We're here first and then at nine we go home. I also have no other purpose. Or do you want to go somewhere?!" ask Kaj.
"No!" hyuna replied briefly.
Kaj was indifferent as Hyuna answered her question briefly.
"Eh, where are you going?!!!" ask Hyuna.
Hyuna was confused because suddenly Kaj stood up and left her. Reluctant to stand up and chase after Kaj, Hyuna decided to stay in her place. Currently Hyuna was sitting on the edge of the field with a thin mat. Not long after, Kaj arrives but carries nothing in his hands. Then where did he go just now?! Inner Hyuna wondered.
Kaj was silent, and so was Hyuna who was reluctant to ask. A woman approached them with a plate of grilled sausage and next to her was a boy who might be five or six years old. The boy had orange ice in both hands.
"Excuse me, sir. Here's the order." said the woman.
He placed the plate containing the puncture of the grilled sausage into the middle of Kaj and Hyuna. Then the boy also put down the orange ice he brought to Hyuna and Kaj's side.
"Thank you. Here's money!" kaj said giving red money folded.
"Sorry, sir. But your money is surplus. Here's the rest I return." said the woman who looked disinclined.
While the boy continued to look at Kaj and Hyuna also towards his mother in turn.
"No need! Think of it as buying your son's needs." Kaj says.
"Yawallo!! Thanks sir!! may your fortune continue. May you mate until death do you part" said the woman, smiling.
Her tears welled up along with the prayer she made for Kaj. After saying prayers of kindness to Kaj and Hyuna, the woman left. But the boy stayed and stared fixedly at Kaj. Suddenly the boy hugged Kaj. Her sobs just broke.
"Thank you uncle!!! Because uncle mother no longer dizzy to think about the contract money that will soon run out!!! Thanks!!! I won't forget the service of uncle!!!" said the boy as he continued to hug Kaj.
Hyuna was moved to see the sincere expression of the boy.
"I'll go first, uncle! mom must have found me! Uncle's chest, brother's chest!!!" said the boy smiling and waving at Kaj and Hyuna.
"Wait?!!! Why did he call me uncle and call you brother?!!" kaj protests when the boy had gone away.
"Hahaha, he knows that you are old!!!" jeered Hyuna while laughing satisfied.
Kaj could only snort annoyedly at Hyuna's taunts. But in the next second he was made to smile when he saw Hyuna who laughed satisfied while eating grilled sausage. Hyuna ate the grilled sausage very greedily even before here they had dinner but it seems like Hyuna's stomach has no limit to the extent that Hyuna had spent three skewers of grilled sausage. Even Hyuna did not seem to realize that the ketchup and mayonnaise from the grilled sausage was up to the splotches on her lips.
Kaj took the initiative to take out his handkerchief and rubbed it onto Hyuna's lips gently. Hyuna was jolted not expecting Kaj to happen in such a way. For a moment the two neutrals met and dived in each other. Hyuna's cheeks that bulged because it was full of grilled sausages made Kaj even more anxious.
Why did she look so adorable with her cheeks bulging like that pufferfish?! inner Kaj.
