Pride of Love

Vacation

"For Pa..." Amel came out of his room and went straight to the Word at the dinner table.

"Hey.. papa's daughter is up apparently. let's have breakfast first" Word greeted his daughter.

After Firman revealed Amel and Andra's arranged marriage plan last night, Amel did choose to lock himself in his room. Firman looked happy because after the debate with his daughter Amel still wanted to accompany him to breakfast.

"Aren't you going to Mayra's studio today, dear?" Word could see the face for his daughter.

"Amel was confused about what to say, Amel was bored!" For him.

"Ehmm... Why don't you go on vacation, baby.. Has your suitcase been idle for a long time?!" Word tried to comfort his daughter.

"Can you please pa?" Amel's face suddenly sumringah heard his papa's offer.

"Before your wedding day, papa let you be satisfied first the way dear...."

"Please don't talk about marriage anymore pa.., Amel does not want to be horrified again" Amel lowered his face. "Well, now you think about where you're going on vacation, you're free to go anywhere, baby, but you have to go with Mayra!" Word diverts the conversation.

"Why should it be Mayra pa?" Amel is curious because his unusual papa requires him to go with his best friend Mayra since he was a child.

"Because if the same Mayra papa sure you will not be like kind of darling.., fear later you will not vacation even run away from papa haha.." Word chuckles small. Amel smiled at his father's silly behavior.

The sound of music was no longer heard at Mayra Studio when Mayra had finished her gymnastics class that day.

Mayra exited her studio and entered the cafeteria next to her studio. Amel was waiting for him there.

"Kok lo looks really lemes Mel? And tumben today you do not join the zumba" Mayra approached Amel while ordering orange juice to the cafe waiter.

"Gue again bete May.., I'm stressed!" Amel pressed his forehead with his finger.

"What's the matter anyway? You think you're traveling less?!" Mayra chuckles at Amel.

"Well...Andra means lo?, wahhh... congratulations Mel.. surely you are very happy right?" Mayra smiled happily.

"Shut up!" Amel looked at Mayra annoyed. "Gue no longer joking know.bokap I actually outrageous May, and I can not refuse his wishes this time" Amel's face suddenly sad.

"Ehmmm.. I don't think you're wrong Mel, Andra is very suitable to be your life partner" Mayra tried to comfort her best friend.

"But I don't love him May, the cold guy fits me so mummy, preserved in the freezer so I can't be a troublemaker in my life!" Amel grumbled again. Mayra smiled again at her best friend.

"Mel. bokap you must have thought this well Mel, believe me all parents must want the best for their children." Mayra directs a straw in her juice glass to Amel's lips. Amel sucked a mouthful of the juice then held Mayra's shoulder.

"May, do you want me to take a vacation? A week ago, I want to remember the thought for a moment" Amel's face back a little bright when remembering the road plan.

"Where's Mel going?" Mayra also sucked the juice and put the glass back on the table.

"Not far away, to Thailand or to Korea.., where do you choose May?" Take Amel with enthusiasm.

"Huh..to Thailand, Korea? Going abroad Mel? That you said not far?" Mayra was astonished. "If the holiday to Ancol, Bandung or Puncak it's not far name Mel. well,, far away a little to Bali, Lombok or Raja Ampat gitu" Mayra reassured again.

"To foreign countries is May..., the time here is only here? Already mainstream know.., if necessary to go into space or to the poles. All of us return the Ice Man to his native hahahaha" Amel laughed at his own absurdity.

"But my savings are not enough to make the way abroad Mel, here it is" Mayra hesitated.

"Don't feel like a tough guy like May, you calm down all I take care of!" Amel blinked his eyes. "Seriously Mel? Mayra still can't believe it.

"Yes, seriously" Amel raised his middle and index fingers.

"Wahhh, thank you Mel, you are the best anyway" Mayra said as she embraced her best friend's shoulder.

"Eh don't stick gini. lo it stinks" Amel giggles as he releases Mayra's hand. "Yeah.the name is also out of exercise, yes it's natural that the smell of sweat" Mayra defended herself while laughing.

A week later, the two friends were preparing for their vacation. They finally decided to go to Thailand . They were driven to the airport by Amel's private driver.
