...🌸 Happy reading, and healthy always 🌸...

''Ren, I came here because there is something I want to talk to you about. And I'm also sure you actually know what I'm going to talk about, right?'' Said Alif staring at the face of Irena who was currently standing quietly beside him.

''Do not let Alif know again if I have heard all his words while at Mira's house this morning.''

Iren was confused if later Alif asked him, what he should answer. Alif stood up and walked over to Irena.

''Ren, did you hear all of my conversations with Dimas this morning at his house?'' Alif asked Irena, but her gaze seemed to make Iren's tongue twitched to answer. Finally Iren could only answer by nodding.

''Ren, all of my words that you heard this morning while at Mira's house, that's true. My feelings are still the same, my love is still the same for you. Although I was about to bury my feelings deeply and remove the engraving of your name in my heart, I still could not afford Ren. Whether you want to believe it or not, but surely everything is true.''

''Ren, actually, I myself don't have the guts to meet you. What else says all my heart. Moreover, given my current status, it makes me even more anxious to reveal it. Therefore, all this time I can only hold it in my heart. And love you in silence. I'm.....'' Alif's speech was immediately cut by Iren.

''Enough Lif! I don't want to hear any more nonsense from you. You've always been that Lif, always thinking according to your own wishes, without thinking about the feelings of others! Have you considered my feelings? Have you ever asked me how I feel about you Lif? You always make decisions without asking first.''

''If I'm quiet because I'm tired of you. Because you have to fight for my feelings alone, you are always worried, unable to be firm with your feelings. And you can't fight for your love and feelings in front of your parents Lif, I'm tired of Lif, tired of my own feelings. Although often hurt, but I am also unable to deny your existence. I have also tried to open the door of my heart to other men, but still you are always enthroned in my heart, even when you are married though.'' Iren dropped his body leaning against the bench. Either courage from where to make Iren let out all his heart.

Alif crouched down in front of Iren, visible from the corner of his eyes had begun to get wet from tears. Alif held both of Iren's palms.

''Forgive me Ren, I know, I'm just a cowardly man who can't fight for my love and feelings. Forgive me for being selfish for never considering your feelings.''

''Alright, Irena, ''' Alif paused his words and took a deep breath.

''Can we start a new relationship with Ren? Some time we have passed. We have a lot of things we have been through. It is not easy indeed, a million senses that words cannot express. In a thousand ways you always make me happy. You are the reason and the answer to all the questions, all I really want is for you to always be here for me. Will you be my choice? to be the last of my life. Will you be the first? Which is always there when I open my eyes in the morning? Know ye? The only person qualified to be my wife is you Ren. Because, the condition of a lasting marriage is to fall in love many times in the same person.''

''Irena, will you spend the rest of your life with me? Will you be my companion with my status as my wife?'' Alif said seriously, his eyes looking at the beautiful face of the girl he loved so much, who was currently in front of him and waiting for the answer what the girl would give.

But when Irena just opened her mouth, suddenly from behind....

''Ren?'' The voice of Mr. Bayu who called Irena from behind. It turns out that Mr. Bayu has been listening to all the talks between Iren and Alif since.

At first Mr. Bayu was only worried when Kenzo told him that Alif wanted to meet and talk to Irena. Arsen wanted to follow his sister to enter and not pay attention to Alif, but Mr. Bayu who stood up and forbade Arsen to call his sister.

''Let you see it, '' said Mr. Bayu. Until finally when he was in front of the door he heard all his daughter's conversations with Alif.

''Father!'' Iren was very surprised when he saw his papa approaching him.

Iren was confused as to what to say, his mouth still locked silent silence. And finally what he said...

''Yes, let's go inside Lif first, papa told us to go inside. True also said papa, if until the neighbors know, they will gossip badly about us later,''

''Come!'' Iren invites Alif to enter, Alif nods his head and follows Irena to enter the house.

When Alif's footsteps entered the house, the air was already horror, suddenly it felt like there was a pile of snow falling on him, when Alif saw Pak Bayu, Arsen and Kenzo sitting in the dining room.

''Come on Alif, let's have a seat, '' said Mr. Bayu.

Alif also obeyed the words of Mr. Bayu, they also had dinner together in silence. It feels like a moment of silence.

After eating, Mr. Bayu told Arsen and Kenzo to invite Iren to take the souvenirs in his papa's room. At first Iren did not want to come along, because he was worried that his papa would scold Alif, but Arsen and Kenzo immediately pulled Irena's hand. Until all that remains is only Alif and Pak Bayu.

''Ekheeem's...'' Mr. Bayu like code to Alif. But it seems Alif is also confused to say what, even though he was married, but it still feels groggy.

''Miss Alif, if you may ask, about the meaning of the arrival of Nak Alif what?'' Say Mr. Bayu while sipping a cup of warm tea on the front desk.

Alif lowered his head, in his heart he tried to strengthen his resolve so that he could speak smoothly before the prospective in-laws. (Quotes : If accepted 🤣🤣🤣)

''Actually uncle, Alif is here to express Alif's feelings to Iren. Because Alif still loves his uncle's daughter, and if Irena and uncle would like to accept it, Alif wants to go straight to a more serious level. Alif wants Iren to be Alif's life companion, uncle, said Alif. Both of his hands clenched, clutching tightly at the end of his clothes.

''Really? Are you sure of your decision, son Alif?'' Said Mr. Bayu, but his eyes are still staring intently at Alif.
