Attention

"Kok you didn't hit me? And.. does Rania know, if you're married?"derry asked with a face that turned serious.

"We haven't had a wedding reception yet, I'm still busy with my work. That's why I haven't invited you,"sahut Arjuna.

"So Rania really doesn't know if you're married? You know, right, if she loves you so much?"ask Derry seriously.

"You know, too, that I never loved her?"Arjuna asked back.

"He has long been chasing you. Don't even hesitate to run over a woman who likes you. As if she was your wife," said Derry smiling thinly as she shook her head slowly, "Rania does not know that you are in a relationship with a woman, even until marriage. Must be because he's out of the country, right?But, who's the lucky woman to marry this Arjuna?"asked Derry as he lowered his eyebrows.

"Later you also know,"short Arjuna said.

A waiter came to put down drinks and snacks for the two of them, until for a moment they stopped their conversation.

"I wonder why the women like you, even though you are irritable to talk and minimal vocabulary,. Your advantage is only because your face is handsome" said Derry after the waiter left.

"Don't be envious!"sahut Arjuna with a flat expression.

"Awas, take good care of your wife! Don't let him get fucked by Rania! You know, right? Rania is that reckless guy?"ask Derry.

"Hum,"sahut Arjuna brief.

"How long have you been dating?"ask Derry to investigate.

"Go get married"sahut Arjuna.

"What's? You mean, you've never dated her?"ask Derry marketing.

"Hum" said Arjuna while eating a snack of his order.

"Kok, can?"ask Derry again. Indeed talking to Arjuna requires a lot of patience, because the man will not talk much, except when arguing.

"Stupid," Arjuna said again.

"What's? Modern times like this are still betrothed, like the era of Siti Nurbaya alone," said Derry then chuckled,"Do you like her?ask Derry back to kepo.

"Looks,"sahut Arjuna.

"seems like? Hais.what kind of answer is that? Just tell me you're starting to like him. I'm getting curious, what your wife looks like, to make this North polar ice melt" she said with a faint smile.

Although Arjuna does not like to talk much, Arjuna has many friends because Arjuna always shows his attention through actions, not words. Arjuna is also notoriously stingy and understanding to his friends. Like Derry who used to be barely able to take the final school exam if Arjuna did not help him pay the administrative payment for the exam requirements. Because at that time, Derry's father was sick to lack the money to pay for Derry's tuition.

Some time chatting, Arjuna finally left after receiving a call from Kinara who told Arjuna to pick him up.

Smart meticulous district held in SMU Yadika was finally finished with satisfactory results, because students from SMU Anak Bangsa managed to become winners in several subject competitions. Smart meticulous is indeed held per subject. So every three students will follow intelligently carefully in one subject.

"I'm very happy, our school can be a winner in some subjects and bring home the most trophies" said Bu Cici proud.

"Yes, Mom, I'm happy too. But now we have to go home soon, otherwise we will go home to the media" said Mr. Yudi.

"Bu Kinar, Ibu Kinar's husband hasn't picked me up?"asked Bu Cici who seemed still curious about Kinara's husband, as well as Mr. Yudi and Mr. Rudi.

"I called, Mom. At the very least it also came,"so Kinara smiled faintly.

"It is very difficult to meet Bu Kinar's husband," said Bu Cici, looking disappointed.

"Where do you want us to go?"asked Arjuna glanced at Kinara at a glance.

"Terserah Mas Juna only. I don't know this area, "sohut Kinara.

Arjuna took Kinara to some good places in the area. Although Arjuna did not say much, Arjuna always seemed to understand what Kinara wanted. Arjuna buys whatever seems to attract Kinara's attention.

Even when Kinara seemed to pay attention to a food stall, without saying anything, Arjuna immediately pulled Kinara's hand to enter the not-so-large food stall, but it looked clean and tidy.

The attention given by Arjuna today really made Kinara happy. After the sky began to darken, Arjuna took Kinara to a hotel to stay overnight. Rest their bodies that feel tired and sore after a day of activity.

The next day they went to a waterfall in the area. Kinara was very happy playing under the waterfall. While Arjuna just enjoy the beautiful scenery and feel the cool air. They were long enough at the waterfall, until finally decided to go elsewhere to buy souvenirs typical of the area.

When the day began in the afternoon, they decided to go home, so that it was not too late to get home.

After Kinara left the bathroom, Arjuna went in to clean up. Moments after finishing the bath, Kinara was seen receiving a call on the balcony of the room.

"How are you, Fit?"asked Kinara after seeing the name of the caller that appeared on her screen.

"Ra, I'm sorry, because I, Doni, know your phone number. He must have called you, right?"ask Fita from the phone, to the point.

"It's okay. I know, she must have forced you, "so Kinara let out a heavy sigh, along with Arjuna coming out of the bathroom.

"Do you not love him, Ra," asked Fita.

"I don't love her" Kinara said without noticing Arjuna standing by the balcony door, hearing every word that came out of her lips..

"He said he would give you anything you asked if you would be willing to live with him" Fita said.

"If she thought I would love her because of the possessions she had and was often with her after marriage, she was wrong. I am not a woman greedy for treasure. I will not love someone just because of the possessions they have. Besides, I gave my heart to someone" Kinara said.

"Is the person you're referring to your husband?"asked Fita seemed surprised, because all this time there was no man who could get Kinara's love.

"Hum,"sahut Kinara.

"But, you said, you're not getting married because of your will?"

"hum. I was forced to marry her, because our family owes her family a debt of gratitude" explains Kinara.

"But finally fell in love with her?"

"Yes," said Kinara with a happy look on her face.

Arjuna who had been listening to Kinara's conversation seemed to frown. Who does Kinara love and who doesn't Kinara love? Arjuna was confused.
