At first Alice was very surprised by the actions of Adji. Getting an impromptu attack that Alice did not wrinkle. However Adji kisses her very gently but demandingly, and that leaves Alice lulled. Their kisses were released as both were depleted of oxygen, as they held their breaths as the kiss occurred. The two people who are still ordinary about the romance do not know how to kiss well. They rely only on instinct.
Realizing what had just happened, the two quickly separated. When Adji hugged Alice, Alice unconsciously returned the hug. Then they sat down at the place where Adji and Sam were.
" My grandfather wants to see you!" Pinta Adji told Alice about her Grandpa's wish yesterday.
" I talked to the Twins first. Do they want to meet your Grandpa or not?"
" Because they don't like being forced." Alice tells one of her children's traits that she doesn't like the most when someone forces her.
" I hope you can persuade them." Adji's gaze pointed at Alice's face especially her lips.
" What's wrong with me. Why do I keep staring at her lips." murmured Adji.
" I'll try!"
" And don't forget one more...." Adji put his face closer to Alice's. And whisper the words that upset Alice.
" From now on you must learn to love me!"
" I told you, Young Master. Love cannot be forced."
" I didn't force you. Just ask you from now on to learn. I'm the underline of LEARNING."
" It's the same as forcing." Alice felt dizzy for him to talk to the Young Master.
Alice herself had never felt what falling in love really was like. Because he was still in high school, once liked his classmates. Then they date, but her lover cheats on her own best friend. And Alice was neither hurt nor vengeful to them. Even after they both broke up. They are still in good contact. Communication between them was also still on the way, only his status had changed, becoming an ex-lover.
" What makes me fall in love with you."
" I'm the most handsome, richest, respectable man in this Diamond town" Adji prides himself.
Hearing Adji's words about herself made Alice slightly dumbfounded. Adji was so confident himself to talk about the advantages he had.
" And you would be surprised to learn that I am the most GENIUS person in this Diamond city."
A proud smile expands on Adji's red lips. When telling Alice, it will be to her superior that most people do not have in this Diamond city.
Unlike Alice, who was increasingly convinced by her assessment of this Young Master.
" This Young Master's confidence, his height exceeds that of the Himalayas."
" Let's just admit that I'm the most handsome man you've ever met in your entire life." Adji put on a face that could enhance the charm on her.
" Who this is bad it turns out. His narcissistic nature had already reached a high level."
Alice remained silent not speaking. Alice could only mutter in her own heart, and was unable to speak.
" Hey, Alice. Is that how fascinated you are to me, so silent and unable to speak?"
" I know that, without you having to talk either."
" So now you must have fallen in love with me, right?"
Adji just keeps talking about the advantages that become proud of himself. Alice looked at Sam sitting next to Adji.
Alice looked at Sam with a gaze for explanation, actually what was going on with her Young Master. But Sam was silent. As if not understanding the meaning of Alice's gaze for him.
" Alice, are you in love with me now?"
Alice just took a strong breath, then exhaled it. His mind was tired of facing this high level of confidence, belonging to this Young Master in front of him.
" It doesn't seem like Young Master yet." Alice answered honestly
" why? What is my lack of self?!"
" Yes, because I'm not the kind of person who falls in love easily. Well that guy is handsome? Rich? Honourable? Or even a genius."
" But you have to love me. Because we're getting married,"
" You said it yourself. Will marry the man you love."
" And therefore inevitably you must love me."
Adji's words are not a single thing stuck in Alice's brain. Alice really wanted to hit the Young Master's head in front of her. Maybe by hitting her head she could think sanely.
Seeing the anger on Alice's face, Sam tried to mediate between the two of them.
" Your Young Master is right. You're the most handsome, richest, honorable person, even your genius brain has not been matched,"
" But sometimes love doesn't need any of that."
" Love is a feeling that almost everyone has, but everyone is different in interpreting their love."
" Love is not just for couples. It can be for parents, children, brothers, and on himself. There are even many people who love treasure."
" Oh, more precisely what is love? Young Master must feel it for himself."
" And the Young Master will know the meaning of love for you."
Sam said so long using simple language to be easily understood by his Young Master.
" Sam, have you ever been in love?" Adji asked as he looked at his assistant's face.
" If you've never been in love, Young Master. But in my heart there is love for the Young Master and the Great Lord." Answer Sam.
Hearing Sam's words made Adji moved. Adji remembered that Sam had always been faithful to be by his side. Adji means Sam's love is always by his side and his Grandpa's side. Sam always did his best for her. Following where he went, doing what he commanded. Always protect themselves from danger. Not once but twice Sam almost lost his life while protecting himself from people who want to do evil to him.
" So Alice, is there any chance that you'll fall in love with me?" Adji asked Alice in a soft tone.
" I don't know Young Master. Maybe tomorrow or the day after that even some time in the future the love appears."
" And I don't know the kind of love that's going to be between us."
" What as a friend? As brothers? Or as a couple."
Alice explained to Adji.
" I hope that love is present between us, love as a couple." Adji.
" Then what about Young Master himself?"
" Has the Young Master fallen in love with me?" Ask Alice.
