My Ribs

Cancel Only

Arjuna got out of his car, stood up while leaning his body on the car with a shirt that rolled up to his elbow and put both hands into his pants pocket.

Chintania who came out of the hospital looked in all directions looking for Arjuna's whereabouts. And his eyes stopped at one point when he saw Arjuna standing while leaning on his car.

Suddenly, Chintania felt that there were shadows in her memory that were similar to what she saw now. But the shadow of the person leaning on the car in his memory was only a black shadow, so Chintania could not see whose face was in his memory.

Chintania's head felt extremely ill as she tried to recall the shadow. During this year, Chintania had never experienced anything like this. Chintania staggered with her eyes closed while holding her head. But Chintania felt someone grab her body as she almost fell.

"Why you?"ask someone who sounds familiar in his ear.

Slowly Chintania opened her eyes looking at the man who was holding her body from falling down. Suddenly his heart skipped a beat as the look in his eyes met the sharp eyes of the man holding his body. Chintania felt that this man's face was familiar, but did not feel that he knew this man before, other than when they met at the restaurant and now.

'We just cancelled our plan today, it looks like you're not feeling well. I'll take you home" said the man who was none other than Arjuna. Arjuna saw Chintania holding her head and was staggering. Therefore, Arjuna quickly approached Chintania and held Chintania's body which almost fell.

"Ja. don't cancel! I'm doing fine. My head was suddenly dizzy, but now it's no longer, '" said Chintania who somehow felt unwilling to go with Arjuna today.

Without saying anything Arjuna walked towards his car followed by Chintania. Arjuna looked back at it briefly and saw that Chintania was still following him. Arjuna opened the passenger car door next to the steering wheel. Chintania got into the car immediately.

"Thank you!"chintania said, but Arjuna did not respond and immediately closed the car door, then walked to the side of the driver's car.

"Cold, once! But attentive, interesting," muttered Chintania softly with both corners of the lips drawn upwards forming a smile.

Although Arjuna seemed cold, but from the other side Chintania felt Arjuna was very attentive. Evidently earlier when Chintania was about to fall, Arjuna immediately caught his body. And when going to get in the car, Arjuna also opened the car door for her.

Before long, Arjuna got into the car and sat in the driver's seat. Both of them are compact using their seat belts. After that, the car driven by Arjuna also drove towards one of the famous boutiques in the city. They will choose wedding clothes that have been prepared by the boutique owner. The boutique has prepared several wedding outfits for Arjuna and Chintania to choose from.

On the way, Arjuna only focused on driving his car, not a single glance let alone staring at Chintania. His eyes only focused on the highway they were passing by, making the atmosphere become silent.

Sometimes Chintania steals a glance at Arjuna to vent to start the conversation, breaking the silence that occurs.

"Ep.. Where does Juna work?"chintania asked, looking at the man beside her who was focused on driving. What a handsome face according to Chintania.

"Managing the family business," Arjuna said as he could without looking at Chintania at all.

"What business, Mas?"chintania asked still looking at Arjuna's face.

"Furniture,"share Arjuna brief.

A second, two seconds, three seconds. Arjuna's short answer made Chintania confused to have to talk let alone. However Chintania continues to try to communicate with Arjuna.

Upon arriving at the boutique they headed, the boutique owner immediately welcomed the two kindly. The owner of the boutique served Arjuna and Chintania personally, assisted by two employees. They showed several models of wedding clothes to the two of them.

A few moments later Arjuna came out of the dressing room as well as Chintania. Accidentally the two eyes met and stared at each other. But Arjuna immediately cut off the eye contact.

"Wahh. You both really fit and match. The one is beautiful and the other is handsome, "praise the boutique owner who looks amazed at Arjuna and Chintania.

"Mas, I picked this dress, okay?"chintania asked, looking at Arjuna.

"Hum,"sahut Arjuna brief.

After choosing a wedding dress at the boutique, they headed to the largest jewelry store in the city. Along the way the two went back to silence making Chintania sigh heavily to dare to ask again.

Chintania asked about anything as long as there was talk between the two of them. But again Arjuna always responded with a short answer even often just answer it with a thud. And it was successful in making Chintania feel so upset that she could not stand Arjuna's attitude anymore.

"The relationship that we will live is marriage because of arranged marriage. Was Mas Juna forced to have this relationship?" chintania asked looking at Arjuna who was next to her.

Arjuna was silent, did not answer Chintania's questions at all, and remained focused on driving the car making Chintania feel even more annoyed at Arjuna.

"Stop right here! I said stop!"chintania said with a cold voice made Arjuna look at Chintania, then pulled over his car.

"If Mas Juna feels forced to live this relationship, we just finish this relationship up here. Don't have to continue anymore. I'll tell our parents that we don't fit in. We'll just cancel the wedding" Chintania said, removing her seatbelt and then getting out of the car and standing on the side of the road in search of a taxi.

While Arjuna who was still in the car was gripping the wheel of his car was strong. If this matchmaking fails, I don't know what his stubborn grandfather would do. Arjuna quickly got out of the car to coincide with a taxi that had stopped in front of Chintania.

Arjuna immediately closed the door of the online taxi car when Chintania would get into the car, "We are talking about this carefully," Arjuna said, immediately pulling Chintania's hand back into his car.

With a sour face, Chintania followed Arjuna's footsteps. The man again opened the car door on the front, next to the driver and immediately closed it back after Chintania entered. Arjuna got into the car and sat back in the driver's seat.

Arjuna let out a long sigh, then looked at Chintania who had a cold face, at a glance, "Please, don't cancel this matchmaking!"arjuna said with both hands tightly clutching the steering wheel of his car. His eyes stared straight ahead without looking at Chintania.
