My husband Bujang Lapuk

Chapter 4 ~ Why Not Married

 

The good news that Eyang Surya can go home makes Luna calmer. The best treatment is at home. Luna who received an arranged marriage may be her own immune to Surya.

At this time Luna was in her cubicle, chasing the lag of work that had been delayed. Plus the preparation of a new project to be handled.

“Luna, how are you?” astri asked who was standing next to Luna's cubicle.

“It's been better, I think this afternoon can go home.”

“Hm, hopefully he will be healthy again quickly yes,” exciting Astri guaranteed by Luna. “Eh yes, you already know not if there is a new employee?”

“Not yet. Good dong, because we do lack senior.”

“Can be that person will be your senior,” exclaimed Astri again.

Luna does not concern anyone senior who must be accompanied, as long as it can be invited to work together. Not arbitrarily let alone pretentious like existing seniors. The phone on Luna's desk rang, apparently a call from Pak Arta to get Luna to see him.

“Excuse me, Sir!”

“Come in!” decreed Arta.

Just now that Luna was seated, Pak Arta had republished explaining the new projects received, including previous projects that had to be handled by Luna.

“However, this person must be satisfied with the results of our work. Because he will invest in this company,” said Pak Arta. “Good news is he's postponing the meeting because he's busy, so you still have time to prepare and tomorrow there's a senior escort. Although he is new, but the matter of interior design has experience.”

“Good Mr. Arta, I understand.”

...***...

“You overtime?” astri asked who was ready to go home, while Luna was still staring at her computer screen.

“No, I came home,” said Luna then turned off her electronic device also ensure the wallet and phone into the bag. If Astri does not rebuke him, Luna may still be engrossed in daydreaming.

Not daydreaming about the prospective husband or how the marriage will be, but thinking about how he will tell Mother if she will get married in the near future. Although since childhood living with Eyang Surya, Luna understands that there is a responsibility of her mother regarding blessing prayers and other trivial things.

Luna called Nuri-Mommy, saying she would stop by tomorrow morning. Of course Nuri welcomed Luna's wishes, even asking what to make for breakfast. Their relationship was nothing but resentment and hatred, both understanding the circumstances and the situation. Surya really educated Luna well.

“Cafe X, kok even deg-degan,” muttered Luna who had moved by attaching a bag strap on her shoulder. She will meet again with her future husband, Teja Dewangga.

Not until twenty minutes, Luna's motorbike had arrived at the destination cafe, Luna had to fix her hairstyle after removing the helmet and opening the sweater. The girl floated her gaze as she entered the cafe and looked for Teja.

“Yes very mojok,” muttered Luna saw the figure she was looking for was on the table a bit corner and the man turned his back towards the entrance.

“Sorry late,” said Luna then sat across from Teja who shifted her gaze from the tablet screen on Luna's face. The man scrunched his forehead, comparing the appearance of Luna yesterday and now. Luna's appearance yesterday seemed sad, different from the present which is neater and beautiful.

“Pak, I order first yes. Thirsty,” said Luna and successfully made Teja who was sipping her drink choke.

“What did he say? Sir! He calls me father,” Teja said inwardly.

After ordering a drink, Luna looked at the man before her even by looking at the two hands on the table.

“What do you want to say?”

“What do you call me? Mr?”

“Yes, is that wrong? My boss looks like he's the same age as,” points Luna at Teja. “I call Mr.”

Teja just shook her head.

“Terasu. Whatever you want to call. Our wedding will be held next week and ..”

“Pak Teja changed her mind and refused this matchmaking? Honestly yes sir, I also disagree with the matchmaking but for the sake of Anyang I am willing. After all, you are quite handsome and I am not very ugly, tend to be beautiful even. Yes, although often single.” Luna interrupted Teja's words and chatted, making Teja sigh, even to the point of listening to the girl's chatter.

“Well, what do you say?” ask Luna without feeling guilty.

Teja did not immediately speak because there was a waiter who delivered Luna's order, the girl not only ordered a drink but also food. Reasoning is soon dinner time.

“I can talk or you want to finish your food first.”

“Speaking aja sir, I multitasking really. Can focus on hearing what you say while eating,” said Luna.

Again Teja could only sigh and hope the woman before him did not give him a headache after they got married.  

“How old are you?” ask Teja.

“Two four, two more months two five. Because who asked the Father so I answered, if other people have certainly I make a fuss because it is not polite to ask the age of women.”

“Are you sure our marriage will be happy, our age difference is quite far.”

Luna put down her spoon and immediately swallowed the food she was chewing and gulped down some drinking water in front of her.

“Pak Teja, I've never been married before so can't answer your questions. Mr Teja was married?”

Teja shook her head.

“So seriously Mr. Teja bujang weathered, uh I mean bachelor. How can you sir? If I see Mr. handsome and his kayak job is okay,” said Luna guessed according to Teja's appearance in a suit, it is certain that the man is not an unemployed man.

“Why you are not married yet, I should know this. Don't let her know after we get married and become regrets?”
