Exactly 5 minutes before my working hours were over, Mas Adnan came to me. "Udah is done, let's go straight away," he asked.
"Just take care of this first" I replied. Today there are not so many buyers, so storefronts-etalases of goods are not too messy.
After finishing fixing the snack shelf, I immediately headed for the counter counter to get ready. "What are you talking about, you can't talk here?"
"Ga can, the important thing must be discussed in a good and comfortable place," he replied.
We walk out together, do not forget to lock the door minimarket, because the minimarket will be reopened at 7 pm and guarded by its own owner. I work only from 8am to 5pm. But every day I have to come early to clean up and prepare before opening the minimarket.
"Where did you park the car? Is there usually no one there?" my question and pointed towards the vacant land next to the minimarket where he always parked his car.
"Today I didn't bring a car, I went home and changed bikes with clothes" he replied.
"Oh, yeah let's go now to the mallem later."
"Here's the helmet, put it on first" he said and put the helmet on my head, not forgetting to put the hook on it too.
"Thank you, when I can make my own without you helping me."
"Ga papa dong, let's be romantic" he chuckled.
I laughed too, "you eat most of your cheese."
"Let's go up, a tight grip," he ordered and wrapped both my hands on his stomach.
This afternoon the streets look so crowded, probably because it's Monday and it's time for people to return home after a tired day at work. "You want to try the cafe that just opened on my office deck?" ask Mas Adnan a little hard.
"Well, follow me" I replied.
"okay."
45 Minutes later we arrive at a minimalist cafe with a beautiful atmosphere. Mas Adnan parked his motorbike in a series of special parking areas motorbike, after the motorbike stopped I was immediately down. Finished removing the helmet and put it on the motorbike, we both began to enter the cafe area which is quite crowded, maybe because it is only 2 days open. It is clearly visible writing near the entrance that says promo for 3 days since the cafe opened. So maybe a lot of curious and interested people come to get a discount.
When entering there was only one empty table left, near the cashier table. Actually this cafe consists of indoor and outdoor areas but because it will talk about something a little important, we choose to sit inside. Mas Adnan pulled the empty chair and told me to sit down, he always treated me like a child, but I still felt reluctant and embarrassed when treated like this.
"You want to order what, this is you choose first," he said while handing over the menu book that had been lying on the table. "I'll call the waiter later."
"If you want to order what? You know I rarely eat at kayak gini cafes, usually also eat on the side of the road or you are wrapped," I replied.
"Yes, you choose yourself, when I continue to choose."
"I want Spaghetti Carbonara with Mojito, if you want what?"
"I'll take your food, but drink it I want Mocha Latte. I'll call his servant."
After the waiter came and recorded the food we ordered, the waiter passed and told us to wait a little longer because of the large number of visitors and orders coming in. I didn't mind it because I wasn't hungry either.
While waiting for the food to come, I began to ask her what she really wanted to tell me. "You want to tell me what the hell it is, I've been very curious about it," I said.
"I've taken care of all our marriage needs from 2 months ago, and that's almost 80% already" she replied lightly.
" Huh, crazy you, suddenly you have been alone without discussion or tell me first," I replied. "You're in the habit of liking to mutusin anything yourself."
"Yes, but you have to discuss with me first. Keep your parents' problems yesterday I'm still confused about how. Your parents clearly don't want me to be his daughter-in-law. Although your father's answer seemed to approve but to me it was not fully they accepted me. Being your only child does not mean that all your desires must be fulfilled. Moreover, this is not only about the two of us, this also concerns your family, let alone your extended family who might also wish you had a matching companion," I replied.
"You know I love and love you, I will do anything as long as I can stay with you. My parents' problems are easy, you yesterday I was horrified to talk even without my parents' blessing, I will marry you."
"Don't look like it dong, wherever those who have taken care of you and raised you from small, give you everything you need, which you want..." I stopped talking when I saw the waiter walking towards me.
"Excuse me, here's the food and drink, please enjoy" the waiter said and placed our order on the table.
"Thank you, brother," I replied with a smile, and the servant passed away after saying the same.
"Eat first, we will continue that earlier," said Mas Adnan.
I did not answer, and immediately started eating. Maybe because my mood was starting to deteriorate, I was reluctant to speak. Mas Adnan who noticed the change in my expression just sighed softly and started eating his order.
20 Minutes passed without chatter, only the sound of spoons and forks clanking and the noise of other visitors. I who had finished my meal remained silent waiting for what Mas Adnan would tell me next.
A few seconds later, Mas Adnan had finished his food, then wiped his mouth with a tissue that had been provided. He started looking at me and tried to get me to talk. "I know you must not feel good about my parents, but I'm the same they are different, I never mind you from any circles. I think everyone is the same, as long as he's good enough in my opinion, they may still be against you because they don't fully know you, unlike me who has known you all this time, who knows your nature, your behavior."
After a pause, he continued, "If you are still not ready for marriage in the near future I can still wait for you, but also not too long, I was so hopeful and sure that you would be with me for the rest of my life."
"Aren't you afraid of being a bad boy?" I'm speaking up. "You should respect your parents' decision, you should also be grateful because both people know you're still there, like I've been left out of adolescence, there is no place to complain. I don't want to marry you, but marriage is sacred, I only want to marry once in a lifetime, I'm afraid that if we force it too much it will backfire on us later."
"If it is the blessing of my parents that you think is very important, then I will talk to them again. I will persuade them until he accepts you with open arms, without coercion" he replied. "But you have to promise first, if I manage to melt their hearts and they want to accept you, you must marry me as soon as possible."
"What is your motive for getting married? Besides you actually love me," I asked. "Whether because during courtship I always refuse you when you kiss or have sex, because from the beginning when in a relationship I have emphasized the possibility of doing it after marriage. Is it because of that?" Suddenly those words crossed my mind.
" A..A..I.." he stuttered.
"I know, I already know the answer, it seems clear from the way you talk and your expression, maybe you forget that I can guess the nature and mood of people just by looking at the expression and the way of talking." my answer.
"Not so," he said, beating his head.
"Udah mending you anterin I went back to the minimarket to take a bike, no need to take between the house."
"But this is malem. I'm worried that you're going home on your own bike. Mending you I take it, tomorrow morning I pick you up just want to go to work, let you not walk again kayak this morning."
"No need, I'm not in the mood for a long time with you, I don't want it to come out of my mouth and I end up hurting you" I said.
Finally after he finished paying at the cashier he stepped out after me who had already left, he relented and chose to take me back to the minimarket.
After arriving at the minimarket, he immediately said goodbye to go home, and I only replied with a murmur. I know that his mood is bad too, so let us both cool our heads. Hopefully tomorrow our mood will improve.
I immediately went home after saying goodbye to the minimarket owner. Actually before we knew each other I was used to go home alone by bike, but since I knew Mas Adnan and love him, I have never come home alone, because he always took me. Because this morning he had a sudden business, so I had to walk. Tonight was the first time I went home alone after almost 2 years, and the first time I and she had argued up to this.
