After dinner, they gather in the family room, but Airish has given up on the reason of a headache to avoid Zio, but Bianca who knows nothing about the relationship in the past, he forced the girl to accompany him. Finally, Airish could only be speechless watching Diana, Bianca and Zio interacting with each other.
"How old are you, Mr Winarya?" ask Diana.
"I.. 21 years old, Madam!" zio smiled faintly.
"Just like my daughter. Bianca this year will be 21 years old as well" Diana said, patting the back of Bianca's hand sitting next to her.
Zio only nodded faintly, his occasional glare of eyes stealing glances towards the Airish that many lowered their heads.
"I'm sorry, maybe my conversation is out of our business context...." Diana again put on a faint smile.
"It's okay, Lady Diana, while I can answer that question, I'll answer it."
"If I were to ask you, would you also answer?" Now the question was thrown from Bianca's lips. Making Airish who had been bowed a lot began to turn his head, in his mind could guess if Bianca had an interest in Zio.
"Of course," Zio replied briefly.
"Are you interested in a one-night relationship?" ask Bianca to the point. Diana nudged her daughter's arm at Bianca's bold and outspoken question, even Airish stared at her with her eyes in a pattern.
Zio chuckled softly. "One night stand?" ask her with sarcastic tone.
"Yups, One night stand!" Bianca clarifies.
Diana looked at Bianca in disbelief, gesturing through the eyes as if she did not like the question of her daughter.
Zio did not reply, instead looking at Airish as if asking the girl what she should answer to Bianca, but Airish just shook her head faintly in response. However, in his heart he now realized that Zio still recognized him, even considering him to be among their conversations.
"Sorry, I mean. Look, don't take it personally with my question. Here I mean, in our country that kind of thing is a natural thing to question. Yeah, so about. Um, how do I say it, yeah I think you understand what I mean, don't you?" Bianca seemed misbehaved at Zio's silence that gave her no answer.
"I understand what you mean, Miss. But I'm not interested in that."
"really?" bianca asked with a seductive smile.
Zio nodded steadily.
"Can I know why? Wouldn't all men be interested in the things that lead there?"
Zio chuckled softly. "Maybe true, but I'm one of the exceptions. If you want to know the reason maybe because our culture and culture are different. Indeed, not all men who are equal to me will think the same. But that was, I was an exception because I had a commitment to connect with just one girl in my life."
"Wow, really? That sounds so naive... Are you not going to regret it?" bianca Goda.
Zio shook his head. "After all, I'm engaged. I don't want to disappoint my chosen girl." Zio smiled slightly at the end of his sentence.
That answer made Bianca speechless as well as feeling that if Zio was a man full of challenges, she was increasingly challenged with this kind of man.
While on the other hand, Airish gave a look, Zio's remark saying that the man had been engaged made him stunned and inexplicably feel heartache.
Come on Airish, what's the matter with you? Whether she's engaged or not, it's none of your business!
What about Zio's promise to him? Looks like Airish will have to forget that from now on.
Although he had cut off contact with Zio for many years, but somehow Zio's promise to him was always ringing in the mind. Airish thought over time and without any communication between him and Zio, it made him not expect more with Zio's promise. In fact, deep down, he was expecting it.
Knowing that Zio is engaged, making Airish's heart whipped, a feeling of regret for making a distance to make Zio choose another girl. However, the other side of his heart was trying to strengthen itself. Do not ask about his feelings now because his heart was messy like slashed sembilu then given a squeeze of lime, sore and very sad.
"You committed man, the girl you choose will feel very lucky, Mr. Winarya." Diana finally said.
Zio nodded slowly, his smile began to slowly disappear, because he saw there was a lasciviousness in the view of Airish. Whys?
Diana nodded, the next split second she stood up, followed by Bianca then Airish who forced to support the body with her legs suddenly dawdled since knowing the reality about Zio who was engaged. I want Airish to ask the young man directly, but his mouth has always been confused and can not join the conversation.
"Oh yes, sir.... Airish my friend is also from Indonesia, which city do you live in? Who knows you're from the same town" Bianca said as they drove Zio to the exit.
"I'm from the city of M," Zio answered honestly while glancing at Airish.
"Well, if it's not wrong Airish is also from that city. Right, right?" Bianca elbowed Airish's arm and the girl just nodded lethargicly.
"really?" zio asked as if he didn't know about this.
"Yes!" bianca cheers cheerfully, then she turns to look at her best friend. "Airish, don't you feel this is so fun? You met other people from your city, when you were both in the country of people?" he chuckles.
Airish just smiled wryly. "See," he replied without interest.
"Then, since we're from the same town, perhaps your friend would accept my offer." said Zio in search of his fortune.
"What offer?" bianca asked with a deep pain.
"Will your friend stay here? If she wants to go back to her house, I'm willing to give her a ride...." Zio said kindly while looking at Airish, unfortunately Airish did not want to look at that beautiful face, he chose to avoid Zio's gaze.
"Oh, of course he wants to, right?" Bianca replied without asking Airish's approval to make them interact with each other through the eyes. Airish tries to protest by glaring at Bianca, while Bianca also glares at Airish for her best friend to agree to her speech agreeing to Zio's offer.
"Do not reject Mr. Winarya's offer, Airish." said Diana gave a code, he hesitated if Airish refused the offer of business relations.
"Ehm, well Aunty.." answered Airish because he understood and was sensitive enough to the code that Diana gave him.
Now, Airish dared to look at Zio. "Can you wait a minute until I pick up my things in Bianca's room?" the question is very slow.
"Hmm, I'll wait in the car" Zio said as he turned to where his car was parked.
Airish immediately passed to Bianca's room.
"I think he's interested in you, Airish.... CK! All men look the same. I think he's different" said Bianca, who also followed Airish's steps up to her room.
"You mean?" ask Airish while putting his things in the bag.
"A few minutes ago, he said that he was a committed man, he was engaged!" grunts Bianca.
"Maybe it's just your feeling!"
"Airish, just once trust me! He's interested in you!" Bianca clucked her tongue at the end of her sentence.
"Every day I believe in you, Bianca.." Airish. "Then, if your words are true, why? She's engaged too!" lazy sis.
"Airish! I can't believe your answer! You see, if he's very handsome, aren't you interested? Are you numb? If you're interested, snatch her from her fiance! That's called a challenge!" bianca said with great enthusiasm.
"Whatever! I don't like taking someone else's property" he said.
"No, Airish! Still engaged!"
"Just like!" Airish rolled her eyeballs.
For Airish who had heard that Zio was engaged, it meant that things were not the same anymore. Everything has changed. True to his words in the past, if Zio's promise to him is only a speech from a man with high school status who is still often unstable and impossible to keep such a promise.
