Juan And Mentari

J&M - Part 5

As planned, Iwan took Mentari to his family's subscription boutique to do the fitting. 

Iwan stopped his car right in front of a pretty famous boutique in the city. He helped remove the seat belt used by his future wife. Then he got down and opened the car door for her.

"Thank you" said Mentari.

Iwan brought Mentari into the boutique to meet the owner and designer of the boutique.

"Mbak Rosa introduced this to my future wife. Dari, this is Ms. Rosa, she is the owner and designer of this boutique. He's my friend, too, so if there's something you don't think you're comfortable with, you can't say that to him."

The mentor reached out his hand to Rosa and of course was immediately greeted warmly by the designer.

"Please sit! I'll get people to get you your clothes. Please wait a minute!" said Sister Rosa softly. "Bring Mr. Iwan's dress over here!" rosa told her assistant. 

 

Not long after that someone came up with a toska green wedding dress in hand and handed it to Mentari.

"Please try it first! If there's anything I need to fix, just say it! Don't worry" said Rosa.

"Try it, I'm sure you'll definitely look very pretty in that dress!" get Iwan.

"Okay" replied Mentari. Although less excited, Mentari still headed to the dressing room to try on her wedding dress. 

Not long after that Mentari came back out of the dressing room. She looked so beautiful in that dress.

"You're so beautiful" Iwan praised.

"Thank you" replied the Mentari briefly. 

"Hows it? Is there anything you want to add?" ask Rosa.

"There is no Sister Rosa, everything is good" Mentari replied.

"Thank God, if you're satisfied. I was so worried, afraid that you would not be satisfied with my plans. Moreover, you ordered this wedding dress suddenly," added Ms. Rosa. "Now it's your turn to try on your bridal outfit, Wan!"

Iwan obeyed Rosa's orders. She went into the dressing room and tried on her wedding dress.

"How does your future husband look good wearing that?" ask Rossa to Mentari.

The mentor simply answered with a smile.

"Look, Wan. Your future wife won't comment!"

"He's a little quiet, Miss Ros."

"Oh, is that it?" answer Sister Rosa.

After finishing trying on the wedding clothes, they immediately say goodbye to leave the boutique.

"Can I ask you something?" Iwan asked when they were in the car.

"Please" replied Mentari.

"Do you really want to go through this matchmaking and marry me?" asked Iwan while looking at the beautiful netra of Mentari.

Mentari did not answer. In fact, he was still a little doubtful about the decision. 

"Dance?" call Juan to make sure.

"Of course I want to marry you" Mentari replied later.

"Are you serious?" ask Iwan again.

"Yes, I'm serious." There was still so much doubt in his heart.

"There's one more thing I want to ask you."

"What?" 

"Have you had a boyfriend while studying in America?" back Iwan asked.

Mentari. He did not expect that Iwan would ask him about it.

"Why? Don't you have a boyfriend in there?" 

"We broke up" replied Mentari.

"really?"

Mentari.

"When did you break up and why?" cecar Iwan's. 

"Before I return here" replied Mentari. 

"Reason?" ask Iwan again.

"He betrayed me" replied Mentari. "Please don't ask me anything else."

Iwan nodded, he re-started his car engine and drove away from the boutique parking area.

"Wan, did you see my phone?" ask the Mentari to panic. He took out the entire contents in his bag.

"No, maybe your phone's left at home."

Mentari tried to remember the things he did before joining Iwan to the boutique.

"Perhaps, the phone was left in the room" Mentari said. He put the items he had just taken out of the bag.

"Now, do we want to eat first or go home?" ask Iwan.

"Just go home, I want to rest." replied Mentari.

Finally Iwan fulfilled Mentari's desire to go straight home

"Thank you, Wan." That's what Mentari said when they arrived at the yard. "I went straight in" added Mentari.

"Dance" call Iwan. 

Mentari immediately stopped his steps and turned towards Iwan. "What's up, Wan?" ask Mentari.

Iwan got down from the car and walked towards the girl.

"Tari, we'll be married soon."

"Continue?"

"Can I have your WA number?" ask Iwan while asking for permission.

"Of course you can" replied Mentari with a sweet smile.

Iwan pulled the device out of his pocket. "Here, please write your contact number here!" pinta Iwan, he gave the device in his hand to Mentari.

Tari received Iwan's device and typed his name and whatsapp number on the flat-piece screen board in his hand, after finishing he handed the device back to Iwan.

"That's my number, you can call me anytime." 

Iwan stared at the device in his hand. "Thank you" said Iwan. 

"I'm in now. Excuse me!"

After making sure his future wife entered the house, Iwan immediately left the yard.

***

Mentari sighed, she put the bag carried on the bed. He remembered his device that was left behind.

Mentari circulated his gaze to look for the existence of flat objects that he thought were very important. Because there the number of lecturers and their college friends is stored, including Juan's number, the person who until now rubbed his heart.

"It turns out here" Mentari said after finding the flat object under the pillow.

Mentari turned on the device and began to enter the password to open the screen.

He was shocked to see hundreds of messages and dozens of missed calls from Juan.

Mentari opened one by one the messages sent by Juan by his lover. All of the messages contained an apology from him. There were even some messages that Juan sent by attaching a photo of himself who was clenching both hands in front of the chest with the caption of his apology. Unknowingly, Mentari's tears fell down her cheeks.

"No! I've decided to accept Iwan's proposal. I shouldn't falter just from seeing her apology."

Dance looked back at her screen when she heard the incoming message notification and she could guess that the message was a message from Iwan.

Dance, this is my number. Please save yes! - That was the sound of the message Iwan sent for him.

After answering 'yes' and adding Iwan's number to his device, Tari put the device back on the nightstand. 

Mentari closed his eyes for a moment, but he reopened when suddenly Juan's shadow appeared in the eye patch.

"No! I must forget Juan, must! He has betrayed me. Anyway, I've decided to marry Iwan. I can't embarrass Mom." Dance speaks in the heart.

Not long ago, again rang from his device. He returned to pick up the device he had just placed on the nightstand. When he found out who contacted him was Juan, Mentari just glanced without answering him. He did not want his heart to wobble again when he heard the voice of the man who had been his lover.

"Dance, why didn't you answer, honey?" ask Ratih from outside the room. 

"Yes, Mom. This is Tari changing clothes so Tari has not answered," Mentari replied lying.

"Honey's answer, it seems important. Because since you haven't been home, your phone keeps ringing!" 

"Yes, Mom."

Dari answers Juan's phone.

"Yes, what's wrong?" reply Mentari.

"From me ...."

Juan had not yet finished his words, Tari had already interrupted him.

"I'm getting married, so don't bother me!" 

Dance back to turn off her dress and put it on the nightstand.
