LOVE STRATA 1
CS1 In Mario's House



The atmosphere at the poolside of Mario's house suddenly changed after Juno raised questions about Mario's matchmaking. Actually Juno is interested in bringing it up since the spy action in the last tutor first. However, the exam season made him focus and put aside his curiosity about Mario. Meli's narrative has triggered her curiosity to grow back. Juno no longer hesitated to ask. Now he looked seriously into Mario's eyes and looked forward to his explanation.


"Is it true that Mario has been betrothed?” juno asked once again with a serious look.


Mario's expression that had changed was now back to how it was. There was no look of surprise on his face, just a smile suddenly painted on his face. Mario took his mango juice, then drank it a few sips. Until the glass is put back on the table, Mario has not yet answered Juno's question. Again Mario's distinctive smile just like that.


"Uh, Ken! Does Mario suck like this?" ask Juno to Ken. He was anxious to see Mario's expression that never answered his question.


"Haha .... You finally realize that Mario is a bitch, too" Ken said, patting Juno on the shoulder.


"True, I've already been betrothed!" mario said suddenly when Juno was complaining with Ken.


In order to make sure they don't hear wrong, Juno and Ken turn to Mario again. Juno stared seriously, while Ken moved into a sitting position and drew closer to Mario.


"Seriously?" juno and Ken asked at the same time.


"Of course I'm kidding" said Mario followed by a light laugh.


Juno patted the eel, then rushed to drink the juice of his second mango. Ken's expression was different again. He asks tos with Mario, and after getting tos he returns to his seat earlier.


"So, at that time Mas Mario lied dong to Anjani and Meli. Yeah, right, Mas?" juno asked after his emotions returned could be resolved.


"Juno, that question also explains that you are really following and eavesdropping on our chatter" explained Mario without fading his smile.


The deg!


Juno immediately stared at the explanation. He was too late to realize the consequences of his question. Now, he could only grin while scratching his non-itchy head. Slowly, he changed his sitting position, from the one facing Mario to the direction of Ken.


Being stared at by Juno makes Ken go awry. His intention was to pretend not to know and evade, but apparently failed. Ken finally laughed strangely. He also decides to confess and justify if he and Juno have eavesdropped on Mario's chat.


"You won't sue me for that. Just relax!" said Mario.


"Haha .... Okay-okay! Why lie to them all? A whim?" ask Ken. He was relieved because the atmosphere was already crispy back.


"Not really. At that time I just wanted to make sure of something," replied Mario bluntly.


Suddenly Mario's smile was saved again. He looked towards the pool water. Not to observe the water looking fresh, it was just a blank stare, while his mind soared far.


When the tutor was last at that time, Mario had already guessed the question that would be asked of him. Actually he did not intend to lie using the reasons already betrothed. He just wanted to know Meli and Anjani's reaction. Beyond a doubt, it was Anjani who at that time looked wrong shortly after Mario said that he had been betrothed. There's something about Anjani. And ... Mario is interested in knowing.


"Hi, bro! Tell me quickly! What did you want to make sure of that time?" ask Ken whose sitting position is now approaching next to Mario.


"Do I look like I'm going to tell you guys?" ask Mario.


"Yes" Ken replied briefly.


"No way!" said Mario. "Follow me down to the second floor. There's a gift for you from my father. Come on!" take Mario and be immediately welcomed by Ken and Juno. The call also successfully distracts Ken and Juno from forcing Mario to tell stories.


Ken and Juno step casually behind Mario. The three of them did not go straight to the second floor, but stopped by the living room first to bring souvenirs from Mario's father. There were five large paper bags that they had to move to the second floor. Juno voluntarily brought three paper bags at once, while Ken and Mario each carried one paper bag.


Arriving on the second floor, the first place to go is the balcony. At that place the three of them used to gather and make friendship together.


"Put it on the table" said Mario.


"Okay, Mum!" answer Juno.


"I wonder what kind of stuff Mario's dad brought. Must be expensive stuff!" guess Ken.


"You know exactly what's in it, Ken. No need to wonder anymore!" said Mario.


"Open it yourself!" tell Mario to Ken who looks impatient.


There are five paper bag souvenirs from Mario's father. The large paper bag of plain white color became the first opened by Ken. The top of the paper bag is tightly sealed using clear insulation. Slowly Ken opened it and took out the contents.


"Wow, shoes!" ken.


Switching to another paper bag, Ken chose a white paper bag brown combination. Just like before, the top of the paper bag is tightly sealed using clear insulation. Again Ken opened it slowly afraid to damage the items in it if it was a luxury item. However, it turned out to be ....


"Wow, shoes again!" ken said a second time.


Ken immediately glanced sharply at Mario who was leaning on the balcony barrier. The glimpsed one was very sensitive, and it immediately drew closer towards Ken.


"Three more you haven't opened yet, Ken. Open it!" pinta Mario's.


"Haha .. I seem to know the contents," Juno said in response.


"I can also guess the contents with my eyes closed, Jun. The shoes!" ken said.


Although he said he could guess with his eyes closed, Ken still opened the other three paper bags. Still with the same clear insulation, Ken kept it open slowly. However, this time for fear of damaging the paper bag that has an elegant color design.


"Aha, so like this is a gift for the favorite son of the owner of three shoe factories. Steady! I'll just choose this one. Fit with my leg size. This one suits you Juno, and it looks like it fits right at your feet. Try it!" ken orders Juno to try on the shoes recommended for him.


"Sip, Mom. Same with my feet. But ... This is why there are women's shoes Mas Mario? For whom?" juno asked curiously because there were two models of women's shoes.


"That's for Anjani," Mario replied without further ado. He even mentioned Anjani's name with a meaningful smile for the sake of seeing Juno's expression.


"Seriously?" juno and Ken asked at the same time.


Mario wants to see Juno's surprised expression, but Ken is surprised. But beyond that, all of Mario's words are true. Mario will indeed give the shoes to Anjani.


"I owe him an apology" explained Mario. This time his expression was serious.


"I'm sorry for lying about the match, Mom?" search Juno. He was the most excited to ask.


"No, there was something else before that. Wanna come?" ask Mario to offer Juno. Mario's smile was painted again.


"Can you really come, Mom?" asked Juno enthusiastically.


"Of course not, Juno! I'll talk to Anjani alone. Your heart won't hurt because of that, will it?" mario's question provoked Juno's reaction.


"Ahaha, yeah, don't. Just relax, Mas. Mentally tough. Twice rejected absolutely no side effects that can make me lament. Teach this Ken Mas!" point Juno at Ken.


"No need to carry my name, Jun!" ken protest.


The atmosphere was instantly so crisp. Not because the paper bag contains shoes, it is just an intermediary. All the pleasant atmosphere was created because of their friendship based on mutual trust.

Mario just drove Ken and Juno to the front gate. A few seconds after Ken and Juno's return, Mario's smartphone shook. When he saw it, there was apparently a short message from his father.


Alenna will be returning to Indonesia soon. Be sure to welcome it properly.


"Alenna is back" said Mario Lirih.


Without replying to the message first, Mario chose to call his father directly. Mario was about to say something, but Mario's father first said another short message that had just been sent. Not until Mario responded, the phone has been shut down. After pecking for a while and followed by a long breath, Mario then rushed to step into the house.
