Love to Aruna

CUA S2 - Chapter 10

''Aruna!" mrs Galuh exclaimed as soon as she reached Aruna and Zidane's room. Aruna was, of course, very surprised by the arrival of her parents at Daniel's house. They both hugged Aruna. Of course, Aruna's tears just flowed until Aruna finally sobbed. I can cry without speaking. In the doorway, Daniel was already standing there. It must be Daniel who told everything, that's what Aruna had in mind. But now Aruna just wants to cry in the arms of both parents.

''Why do you keep this burden alone, son? There's Papa and Mama here.'' Said Madam Galuh with her cry.

''Why didn't you tell Papa? Papa can pick you up and Zidane. Mr. Daniel came to see us and told us everything.'' Connect Mr. Wira. Aruna could only shake her head while sobbing.

''Oma-Opa, don't you guys miss me?'' sahut that innocent voice. Seeing her only granddaughter lying on the bed, Mr. Wira and Mrs Galuh immediately approached and hugged her granddaughter.

''Zidane, are you all right, baby? Forgive Oma and Opa huh?'' said Mrs Galuh.

''I'm fine Oma-Opa. Oma and Opa are not wrong.'' Zidane replied. After long enough hugging, they let go of each other.

''Aruna, what did the doctor say?'' ask Mr. Wira.

''Zidane is fine Pah, just a common fever.'' Aruna answered while wiping away her tears. Aruna turned her eyes to Daniel, who was still standing in the doorway.

''Ah-Mah, leave Zidane for a moment?''

''Yes dear,'' replied Mrs Galuh. Aruna then pulled Daniel by the hand and took him to a corner of the room far enough away from her room. Daniel follows Aruna's footsteps without much protest because Daniel knows that Aruna will be angry.

''What do you mean by bringing my parents here?'' Aruna immediately asked without much ado.

Daniel sighed, already knowing that Aruna would say such a thing.

''They're your parents Aruna, so they deserve to know. When are you going to hide? And what if they came to your old house but you weren't there? Wouldn't they be even more disappointed and hurt?''

Aruna just kept quiet and did not flinch at the words of Daniel. At least what Daniel said this time had a point. Daniel then holds both shoulders Aruna, in the face of a beautiful face but looks sad at that time.

''Aruna, I know you don't want to make them sad and feel burdened but think from their point of view as parents too. They deserve to know all your problems and don't keep everything to themselves. Remember, you still have parents. There's still room to lean on when you're like this. Don't avoid and hide. If I also remained silent, they would also definitely think badly of me. Moreover, you work with me so you are also my responsibility.''

Aruna was silent. He could not answer Daniel. But at that time Aruna also saw the figure of Daniel who was so mature and wise. Unlike Daniel who is usually childish and also self-absorbed. Aruna then lowered her head, holding back all the bitterness of life she was currently experiencing. It was unexpected that the man before him bore witness to all the bitterness he had experienced. Daniel then pulls Aruna in his arms.

''Everything will pass you by, Aruna. Believe.'' Said Daniel. Again, Aruna was unable to resist Daniel's embrace. He felt Daniel's embrace was able to calm him down.

A pair of eyes was watching the two seriously.

''Daniel!" the voice of a familiar man in Daniel's ears. Daniel turned to the source of the voice with a surprised look.

''PAPA,'' he murmured. Hearing Daniel say the name of Papa, Aruna immediately released her embrace from Daniel.

''Hutama Masters. Wh-sorry! We-we did nothing and sa-I also did not do as you say.'' Aruna stammered. Indeed, he was very afraid and worried if Mr. Hutama misunderstood. Mr. Hutama smiled as he approached them.

''You've been from earlier Sir?'' ask Aruna.

''Mmmm enough, '' replied Mr. Hutama.

''Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. I'm sorry.'' Aruna said as she passed in a hurry. And now there's the father and the boy.

''What the hell is that? I just calm him down.'' Answer Daniel timidly.

''Calm it down or look for an opportunity?'' god Mr. Hutama.

''Mmmm both, Pah.'' Daniel's chuckles.

''BASIC!" Said Tuan Hutama while menoyor softly his son's head.''

And now they all sit together. Both of Aruna's parents sat opposite Mr. Hutama. Daniel sits with his father while Aruna is with her parents.

''Master Hutama, forgive us this sassy especially our daughter. It shouldn't be him and his son here, at his superior's house.'' Said Mr. Wira who started the chat.

''There is no need to apologize, sir. I'm happy that Aruna and Zidane are here. I really don't mind at all.'' Said Mr. Hutama. Of course, both of Aruna's parents were surprised by what Mr. Hutama said.

''Sorry, what do you mean sir?'' ask Mr. Wira.

''This is how Mr. Wira, I have known Aruna for a long time. Even when she started her career before marriage. To be honest, I wanted to set her up with my son, Daniel. But unfortunately, at that time Daniel was still in school and Aruna already had his own candidate. So my desire to make Aruna my son-in-law still continues to this very second.'' Clearly Mr. Hutama was calm. Of course, both of Aruna's parents were surprised by Mr. Hutama's confession as well as Aruna's.

''Without further ado, I would like to propose Aruna as my son-in-law and as the wife of my son, Daniel, '' Hutama continued. A statement that again surprised them. Before coming to Daniel's house, Fero had told Mr. Hutama everything, especially about Daniel's feelings for Aruna who still got rejection from Aruna.

''But sir, we are just ordinary people and Aruna is also just a subordinate in the office. Especially with his status as a single parent, '' said Mr. Wira.

Mr. Hutama smiled. ''I don't mind all that. It's just status. For me only Aruna deserves my son and also I love Zidane very much.''

''Sir, I do not deserve Mr. Daniel. After this I will also move. Moreover, Mr. Daniel is also my superior. My status and my past will certainly be the talk of Mr. Daniel's fans.'' Aruna said as she glanced at Daniel. Aruna's speech was also welcomed by Mr. Hutama's laughter.

''Calm down Aruna, she has no fans. He is now a fan of you.'' Kekeh Mr. Hutama. Honestly, Aruna did not expect this accidental meeting for Aruna, which would lead to anything to do with Daniel. It was beyond expectations Aruna. Aruna herself is also not convinced by Daniel, considering Daniel is a playboy.

''Aruna, I know your doubts about my son. But as a father, please believe in him. Give her more confidence to prove her feelings. I also know that you must have been traumatized in a marriage so I also don't want to make you rush to make a decision. Getting to know each other is no problem. What is clear is that I only want you as my son-in-law.''

''Om-Tante, I honestly don't know when I fell in love with Aruna. As Om and Aunt know for sure Aruna is a little bit of a story about me. I admit that I was stamped as a playboy but since I knew Aruna, understood her pain and was made to witness her failure, it made me realize that I was wrong whatever it was my reason. I just wanted to find a female figure who was like my late Mama and I found it on Aruna. He gave me warmth in a family. I also knew Aruna before Aruna worked with me. Even she was the girl I had been looking for all this time, the girl with the butterfly clamp.'' Daniel's clear. Daniel's words make Aruna feel touched because usually men boast of her but this time Daniel actually shows his shortcomings.

''So she's the girl you told Papa and Mama about?'' sahut Tuan Hutama.

''Yes Pah. But when I wanted to ask her to meet Mama, she was gone and only now do I find her.''

''Wow, the world is so narrow. So how are the Ladies?''

''We as parents, leave all decisions to Aruna.'' Said Mr. Wira.

''Sir, I'm sorry that I haven't been able to make a decision. Because it's too fast for me.'' Aruna said that she actually felt bad but she also could not lie.

''Daniel, Papa has tried. Now it's up to you to prove it, whispered Mr. Hutama.

''No problem, Aruna. What matters is that you, Om and Auntie know how I feel about you. I don't want that answer right now but I'll prove it until you say YES.'' Daniel was full of optimism. Both of Aruna's parents just nodded with a smile, as did Aruna. Of course the trauma of failure in the household still looms over him.
