Not Hate, But Love

CHAPTER 74: THE ENGAGEMENT ENDS

The long-awaited day has come, Bima and Ila will soon be engaged on that day. All the guests one by one had arrived.

"Are you sure La? ask Jesi.

"I'm sure Jes, take it easy." said Ila casually, but in her heart was troubled.

"Do the boss know? max me Pak Angga." asked Jesi

"He knows, I explained everything to him and I didn't miss this invitation either" Ila said

Jesi is just very regretful about Ila's decision.

"I still don't understand his way of thinking, but I pray the best for you La" Jesi said in her heart.

All invited guests are welcome to sit on the spot as the event is about to begin.

"Are you ready?" ask Bima Kak to Ila

Ila looked dreamy. He was thinking when he was giving his engagement invitation to Angga.

At that time, Angga and Ila were in a restaurant. There they were talking about work. Then when it was finished and when Ila was about to go Angga stopped him. Ila sat back down and Angga's eyes began to look into Ila's eyes with seriousness.

"Without much ado. I want you to know that I like you Ila. I know this looks a little weird because maybe we were regular friends before I got amnesia, but somehow my heart feels there's a vibration if I'm around you and if I'm without you I feel like something's missing."

Ila was very surprised by Angga's statement and Ila tried to be calm

"I really understand Angga, maybe you just get carried away. But really I am very sincere to take care of you. I'm so sorry but I have to deliver this. (while handing over the engagement invitation paper).

After giving it away, Ila immediately left. On the other hand, immediately the look on Angga's face became sad. He did not expect Ila would soon be engaged to someone else.

Ila had regained consciousness after Bima's sister patted her shoulder and Bima asked again and Ila just nodded, which indicated that she was ready.

...****************...

The host immediately opened their engagement event until the time came for the exchange of rings which as a condition of attachment.

"Please for Mas Bima pin the ring to his bididawari." said MC

But what happened when Ila's turn was about to pin the ring to Kak Bima there was a shouting sound from a distance.

"Stop it." shouted a man who had not seen the trunk of his nose.

A man who looked very dashing in black glasses was Angga.

"Please stop this engagement" Angga said

"Ila my best friend, Brother Bima my senior brother, Jesi my former employee, you are my sister.how many more people should I mention." continued Angga said as he looked at Ila with a smile.

All the invited guests stared at him, without exception Ila and Bima.

"Do you remember everything Angga" said Ila in his heart.

"Yes, I remember you all." cried Angga

Ila was very happy to hear that because Angga had already recalled.

Angga began to walk to the stage where Kak Bima and Ila exchanged rings and he took over the mic from the MC there.

"Play" said Angga

There began to be heard the confession of a nurse who was told by Kak Bima to help carry out his plan to separate Angga from Ila's life forever.

Recorder.....🔊

"Maybe you're here wondering what this voice recording means, especially for the groom. Is that so Mr. Bimanta Dwiandra." said Angga while staring at Kak Bima

"Well without saying much, I will explain how rotten Mr. Bimanta Dwiandra has deceived me to make me leave the only woman I love so much, he is Ila." said Angga very firmly and looked at Kak Bima with anger.

All were made shocked without exception Ila who still did not expect the actions of Kak Bima.

Not staying silent, Bima tried to hold Ila hostage. The right hand was on Ila's neck, while the other hand was holding the sajam.

Everyone screams in fear. Bima's sister took Ila out of the engagement building and Angga ran to save Ila.

When Kak Bima was about to bring Ila in a car and then from the back of Angga kicked her body. A fight between the two, until Bima was exhausted and he gave up and just left from there.

Angga did not care about Kak Bima anymore, the most important thing is now he saved Ila who was in the car. His mouth was covered in plaster and his accomplices were tied.

"Here calm down, I let go of all ya." said Angga

There Ila was crying in fear and Angga could not see the situation of Ila like that.

All were released and Angga told Ila to get out of the car.

"Let's get out" said Angga

"Be careful." continued Angga

After getting out of the car, Ila immediately hugged Angga and she returned the hug from Ila.

"You calm down, I'm here now" said Angga

Ila did not say a single word, she just hiccupped while crying. Angga tried to pet and calm him down.

Angga also drove the Ila family to go home.

"Thank you Angga, let's stop by this first as you can take a shower and change clothes first, this is soon going to be a bad night outside." Ila's mother ordered.

"Yes, come on sister" said Ila's sister

Ila still looks very shocked by the incident earlier this afternoon, she is still a little scared by the actions of Kak Bima who tried to hurt her.

Ila and Angga were sitting on the sofa together, they had already finished bathing and changed clothes anyway. I was in the kitchen preparing dinner for everything.

"Are you okay?" ask Angga

Ila nodded, she didn't look okay.

"What are you thinking? we're safe here."

"I'm still traumatized by the incident earlier this afternoon, how about Kak Bima come again?" said Ila

"That won't happen I promise, but if it happens I will have my men look for him and drag him to the police station" Angga said firmly

"I'm afraid" said Ila while holding Angga's hand

Angga hugged Ila and calmed her back down.

"Calm down, don't think about it anymore, right now I'm here" Angga said

"Then what should I think?" ask Ila.

Ila looked into Angga's eyes and both eyes looked at each other.

"Our relationship" Angga said very gently

She smiled and was embarrassed. Their hugs were getting closer and closer to each other.
