Love In Butterfly Needles

He proposed to me

The year has changed with the new year.

There are many stories that were engraved in the last year, some are attached to the present, some are forced to be wasted by memories.

Later that night Adrian will come to Dena's house, they have agreed to bring their families together that day.

" You nervous Adrian?", asked Radit as they were on their way to Dena's house.

" Slight sister, I can't wait to determine our wedding date".

" Hahaha, patience bro....".

" Don't tell your sister you can't stand your man's passion anymore" Radit patted her on the shoulder.

Adrian laughs because he actually wants to get married quickly because he does not want to do crazy things to the people he loves while the status as a husband is not attached to him.

" Sister Radit, if later you know the shortcomings of my future wife I beg you will continue to bless our relationship" said Adrian slowly.

" Well, if you can just accept your partner's shortcomings, then what right is this brother of yours to not be able to accept".

Adrian breathed a sigh of relief, because later there inevitably Kak Radit will know that Dena has a chronic disease. He was afraid that his sister would later take a stance that made the Dena family offended and hurt.

" You know Adrian, the great man is a man who knows all the disgrace of his partner but he still chooses to love".

Adrian nodded in approval to his brother's remark which he did not know from where.

They have arrived at the House of Dena, warmly welcomed by Dena and her family.

This application is not like the application in general that looks a lot of male families who come.

Adrian only came alone with his older brother, because he was the only family Adrian had.

Radit's brother has had a little conversation with Dena and Hasbi's father.

They talked to each other about their work and their activities.

Dena's father did not think that the prospective daughter-in-law was a sister of the owner of a Property Company that already had a name in the city.

Because what he saw Adrian was always simple, he even became an employee at another company even though he actually wanted to he could have helped manage his sister's business.

Their conversation is still not going to the issue of Adrian and Dena's proposal.

Laughter was still heard between the conversations.

While Adrian just a lot of silence, observing the woman he will marry.

Dena still looks busy helping mom prepare food and drinks for her special guests tonight.

Adrian again stared in amazement at the beauty of his lover. Dena wears a knee-length orange dress with a small hemisphere on her right side, the clothes wrap snugly on her body to display a beautiful curves. The way to dress is simple, but always looks special if the beautiful woman who wears it.

Radit and Dena's father seem to be done with their little talk.

Dena and her mother had joined the room.

Radit began the conversation, declaring their intention of arrival.

" This is Mr. Surya, so my intention of coming here was to fulfill the goodwill of my younger brother who wanted to propose to Nak Dena".

" Even though they haven't been in a relationship for long, it seems that my sister is already convinced by her choice".

" Do you and your family want to accept our good intentions to propose to Dena?".

Dad was silent for a while then took a deep breath and began to give an answer that might not be straight to the point.

" Look Radit, before that I want to tell you a story and want Radit to know everything about our family, including the state of my son Dena".

" I think Adrian's son already understands and can understand, but I don't know if Adrian's son has told him or not to you".

Radit turned to Adrian as if asking,

" What haven't you told me about your boyfriend?".

Father cleared his throat, then continued his sentence.

" My son Dena does look worthy of her ordinary woman who undergoes her activities normally".

" But behind it all, we're very concerned about Dena's health".

" Because our son actually has a chronic illness".

Radit was a little surprised to hear that, in his face a glimpse of the woman's face.

Her face looks fresh, her beauty can even be said above flat.

He continued saying he came back.

" Our son has stage five chronic kidney failure and has been on dialysis for almost eight months".

" Would Radit as Adrian's family accept the condition of my son Dena?".

" Honestly I believe and believe in Adrian Nak who sincerely loves Dena".

" I also want Adrian's family to accept Dena's situation, so that later in the day there are no regrets that make my son Dena disappointed".

Adrian looks anxious, waiting for how his sister's reaction after knowing this.

Radit still can't believe what Dena's dad said.

" Is it possible?", he asked in his heart.

" Sister Radit", Adrian nudged his brother's hand which looks still dumb.

" Ehh yes".

" So sir, I've come to your house tonight, which means I'm very supportive of everything Adrian wants".

" If Adrian alone is convinced by his determination to marry Dena, then he accepts all the advantages and disadvantages of Dena".

" I as his older brother always supported Adrian's decision".

Dena's father smiled at Radit's words, Adrian no less his sumringah.

He looked at his older brother, saying thousands of thanks through his gaze .

" Well son Radit, if Adrian and son Radit can understand and accept all his circumstances I think there is no reason for me to reject this proposal".

" One message I want Adrian, take care and love Dena like we're her family who always look after Dena".

Adrian just nodded his head unceremoniously without issuing thousands of promises.

Sometimes, there is a typical human who does not talk much. It seemed ordinary to say his feelings but in his heart there was so big chunks of love.

Later in life, this patient man will even make Dena live a normal life like before for the great sacrifice he gave.

Dena looked down, not wanting everyone in the room to see her face.

He did not know what feeling was now raging in his chest .

Between sad and happy.

" But Adam, I've been proposed to people".

" I can't even prevent my heart from rejecting it".

" I finally realized that we're just a bunch of wasted stories".

Tears dripped without excuse, Adrian could see Dena's crying face despite trying to cover it up .

" Dena, are you crying happily because you're overwhelmed by my proposal?".

" Or is there something else you're hiding from me?", Adrian sighed inwardly.

That night, Dena is officially engaged to Adrian.

A pair of gold rings coiled around their fingers as a sign they were bound in a more serious relationship, with the initials A and D engraved inside.

Then, the beautiful pearl ring that Adrian had given to Dena before he still wear on the ring finger of his left hand.
