My Love Sleeping Beauty's

A Hope

Maretha's phone rang while she was leading a meeting, all eyes looking at her with a very disturbing look. "I'm sorry, I forgot to turn off my phone" she said guiltily after turning off a call from someone she loved dearly.

Martha then continued her presentation in front of the Director of her company and several other shareholders.

"Congratulations, Rere Your presentation was very good. And this project I trust you with. You can choose your own team that you can work with." Mr. Lukman congratulated him after the shareholders left the company.

Mr. Lukman is the Director of the Company engaged in Advertising in the place where Mareth and his best friend Alisya work. Mr. Lukman may be old, but his charm still looks very clear. This is seen from his sturdy posture and there are still remnants of muscles being treated. His stature was firm with a tall posture of about 178cm, his jaw was firm, his eyes were brown despite being covered with glasses that were always perched on his nose.

Martha carved out her trademark smile that showed dimples on both her cheeks that made her even more beautiful."Thank you sir for your trust. God willing, I will do everything possible for this project" he said, replying to Mr. Lukman's hand with enthusiasm and confidence.

"Oh yes, the incident was not repeated again," added Mr. Lukman warned him when he wanted to turn back to his room.

Martha scratched her non-itchy nape, "Okay sir," a little embarrassed.

After Mr. Lukman walked away. Alisya ran over to him and immediately hugged him excitedly. "Maretha, you were so great. I'm so proud to have a best friend like you," her excited hug makes Martha a little hard to breathe.

Martha tried to loosen up her best friend's embrace, "Al, to-long loosen up a little bit of your embrace. I-I'm a little hard to breathe." she was finally able to finish her sentence.

Alisya, aware of the flatness of her best friend. He also loosened his arms. "Sorry, but I'm really happy to hear that. Finally you can also prove that you can lead this great project." Alisya was still excited.

"You know, if I'm so happy to hear this. And,,,,,,, we have to celebrate. You have to buy me food." added Alisya again.

An engraved smile on his thin lips, "That's for sure. You can choose where to go."reply again make Alisya more excited.

Martha held onto her phone, and a message came in. She reads on the flat screen of her phone, a message from her lover who is already her fiance.

"Ciyee, her art can be the spirit of the future husband," led Alisya nudged the shoulders of Martha who looked embarrassed.

Martha held her phone near her chest happily. "I'm happy, in the end we're getting married. Papa Mas Bara finally gave his blessing," A clear water dripped on his eye sieve. Happy tears and haru. Today, Mareth is very happy,

"Don't be sad. Yuk, we're eating. I'm really hungry" asked Alisya to forcefully pull her hand.

-----

They entered a restaurant not too far from the office. They sat by the window in their favorite place.

"Good afternoon, what message do you want?." asked the waiter kindly as he pulled out a pen from his apron pocket and a taking order.

Alisya opened the menu book and looked at the list. "Re, what message do you want?." asked Alisya confused to see the menu list that he had often seen.

Martha, still busy with her phone replied to a chat from her future husband. "Hmm, I want the usual" he replied without glancing at Alisya.

Alisya rolled her eyes lazily looking at the behavior of her friend who was still busy chatting with Umbara. "So serious chatnya," he reprimanded.

"Hmm," replied Martha again.

"Excuse me, madam. I will be back a long time later. If you have a decision please call me again or with my friend." Bargain the waiter politely.

Alisya looked up at the waiter, "I ordered Greentea Smoothies 1, Mocca Latte 1, Mineral Water 2 which is not cold."

"This is all right?" asked the waiter. Then Alisya pointed to the food menu on the menu list. "I want this one 1 and this one" he replied as he pointed to the menu. The waiter painstakingly recorded their order.

"Well I repeat the order yes, Greentea Smoothies 1, Mocca Latte 1, Mineral Water 2 which is not cold, Special Package 2 1 and Special Package 3 1. Is the order correct?." asked the waiter again to confirm.

Alisya nodded confirming her order, "Okay, please wait. Messages will be ready in 10 minutes." Then the servant left them.

Martha was busy with her phone. Alisya began to be lazy, they should have fun and enjoy today. Because of the victory of the tender they were allowed by Mr. Lukman to go home early because previously they had to overtime to prepare for the meeting today.

"What the hell, Re. Very serious chat with Umbara." Alisya protests snatch Maretha's phone from her hand.

"Al, here's my phone." But Alisya held her hand. Martha who fell silent and stopped asking for her phone.

Alisya skimmed their chat and she mwngernyit, "Seriously nih???."anya then showed the phone screen to Maretha.

Martha folded her hands on the table, "I was shocked too. Tonight, his father Mas Bara asked me to come to their wedding anniversary. He said he wanted to announce our marriage." Martha was not confident.

"I don't know what to do?." Martha put her head on the table with her hands held together.

"This is good Re, it means that your relationship is indeed completely sanctioned by Umbara's father." Alisya was very happy.

Martha put on her own face, "But I'm afraid. There must be a lot of work relations Mr. Danu, and I'm afraid I can't keep my attitude. I'm afraid I'm going to embarrass them" he hesitated.

Alisya rolled her eyeballs thinking to convince this friend of hers. "Why should you be afraid. You are beautiful, Re. You are also smart, even though you are an orphan, but you can prove that you deserve it. After all, there must be Mr. Lukman too. If you feel awkward, you can talk to him. Mr. Lukman would be so proud of you, if only he had a son maybe he would marry you."

A faint smile was etched on Maretha's lips, "But still I feel unprepared." The answer.

"It's how we eat first, after that I help you get ready and beautiful grooming" added Alisya encouraged him.

Laughter broke out between them. Their orders came. They talked about what to do when meeting with the working relationship of Mr. Danu Umbara's parents who are also CEO of Gineka Corporation. A company engaged in Garment and also has a Mall in one of these cities.

Martha herself was an orphan, she grew up in Orphanage. He never knew his parents. He was just placed in front of the door at the time. During the Orphanage, no one wants to adopt it because Maretha is a quiet and closed child. He does not get along easily with new people, his friends are not too much. Martha had always loved to study, and therefore she always got a scholarship. So the caretaker is very dear to her, Martha is too independent and never bothers others. When he was an adult, Martha decided to leave Panti to learn to live independently. But he never forgot them. Martha often visits the Orphanage if she has free time from her busyness now.

With his background unclear makes his relationship with Umbara not smooth.
