🌸🌸🌸

Winda walked past Adrian and Tya without greeting them.

"Mom, Winda", call out to Tya as Vinda hurriedly walked over, forcing Vinda to stop her steps and turn her head towards Tya. "Morning, Ma'am", greeted Tya with a smile on Vinda.

"August, Tya. Sorry I'm in a hurry", he replied to Tya. Just as Winda stepped on his foot, Adrian called out to him.

"Winda", call Adrian, again stop the pace of Winda. "How are you this morning?" adrian asked with a look on the back of Winda.

"Ehm, well", replied Winda briefly, then continued his steps leaving Adrian and Tya.

Adrian looked at the back of Winda who continued to move away, so that it could no longer be reached by the sight of his eyes.

"Sir Adrian", call Tya disperse the reverie of Adrian.

"O, yeah. Is Mr Ferdo inside?" adrian's question distracts Tya.

"Yes, there is sir", said Tya with a friendly smile.

Adrian smiled his smile and walked into Ferdo's room.

Chequek.

Adrian opens the door to Ferdo's room after Ferdo lets him in. When entering Adrian saw his best friend was sitting in his big chair while looking up to the ceiling of his room.

"What's wrong?" adrian asked as he sat across from Ferdo separated by a table.

"Hufft. I'm confused", said Ferdo with a heavy breath.

"What makes you confused?" adrian asked as he looked towards Ferdo who was waiting impatiently.

"Grandfather betrothed me", said Ferdo uninspiredly.

"Puft, maybe grandpa thinks you're old?" cerca Adrian on Ferdo.

"Get out!" sergeant Ferdo was very upset.

"Patience, bro", Adrian said to appease Ferdo. "Come, tell me, how can grandfather match you" said Adrian who looked at Ferdo showed him that he was ready to listen.

"Yesterday night grandfather arranged a meeting with his father Siska", said Ferdo with a slight annoyance.

"Siska?" adrian asked with a frown.

"Yes, Siska", Ferdo replied lazily mentioning the name. "What did he say to his grandfather and father. Until they plan this matchmaking" Ferdo said, rubbing his face rough. "But. ", he said then hung his words, his tongue felt like a joke to continue.

"But, what? Don't make me curious" said Adrian who is still listening to the story Ferdo.

"Grandfather gave me a choice. If I don't want to be betrothed to Siska, then I have to bring a woman, to be reunited with my grandfather as my future wife" he said uneasily.

"Good, dong!" exclamation Adrian.

"Yes, but it's only been a week" he said with a sad face.

"What! One week!" adrian said with a bit of shock, which was responded with a nod by Ferdo. "Where'd you get a woman that fast? Or do you have someone special?" ask Adrian.

"I was confused. How, while I do not have a boyfriend" said Ferdo while thinking about the solution.

Adrian walked over to Ferdo, "just this" he said, patting Ferdo's shoulder gently. "How about you pay someone to be your pretend girlfriend?" adrian asked and gave Ferdo some advice.

"Where would I look for such a woman. I was also worried that grandfather would be suspicious" Ferdo said, looking up at Adrian.

"How about Yunda being your pretend boyfriend?" adrian asked, making Ferdo snort. "I'm sure Yunda will help you" he said later.

"Yes, there's no way I can, right!" cerca Adrian's.

Ferdo was unable to say anything, on the one hand he was happy, but on the other hand he was worried that his grandfather would ask him to marry Ayunda. If that happens, everything will be a mess.

"You don't worry, I will persuade Yunda" Adrian assured Ferdo. Ferdo was forced to follow the idea of his best friend.

***

This afternoon Ferdo was actually invited by Siska and his father to eat together, but Ferdo refused on the grounds that there was an appointment with the client.

Drrt.

Ferdo's cell phone rang again, when just a minute ago Benny, Siska's dad called him. Ferdo grabbed the phone he had just put in his pocket.

"Winda" he said, frowning as he read Winda's name on his phone screen.

"Hallo, Win" said Ferdo as he swiped the green icon on his phone.

"I'm with my client. What's up?" ask him when he said to Winda from across the phone.

"Yes, new client. I'm sorry, I don't feel good talking on the phone. If nothing matters, I close first, yes", said Adrian when Winda suspected him not to be with the client.

Ferdo immediately disconnected the phone, when Winda did not say anything important to him.

"Adrian", call Ferdo to Adrian who's focusing on driving.

"What's wrong?" adrian asked, looking at a glance, then refocused on driving.

"Help me make Yunda agree with our plan. Before Siska used Vinda and grandfather to help her, so that I would agree to be betrothed to her", Ferdo pleaded with Adrian.

"You're my best friend. I will help you, as long as I can do it" said Adrian who turned a glance at Ferdo with a smile.

"Thank you" said Ferdo, gently patting Adrian on the shoulder.

"No need to hesitate", reply Adrian while turning his vehicle into the gate of the Ayunda campus. Then park the vehicle in the campus parking lot.

Ferdo and Adrian walked out of the car, to the campus cafeteria. They've made an appointment with Ayunda, meeting at the campus cafeteria this afternoon.

As Ferdo and Adrian walked down the campus corridor, all eyes looked with awe at the two of them. The women did not stop praising their good looks. Some even deliberately crashed themselves into Ferdo, for the sake of holding his hand. Adrian, the women did the same to Adrian.

Ferdo and Adrian walked in at a rapid pace, avoiding the crowd of women who were appraising handsome men. When they arrived at the cafeteria, they also received the attention of the entire canteen. Highlights of their eyes can't be separated from Ferdo and Adrian, who are gliding their eyes through every corner of the canteen in search of Ayunda.

"That's it", pointed at Adrian when he saw Ayunda waving her hand. Then they continued their steps toward Ayunda.

"Hi, Yunda", greeted Ferdo as he sat on one of the empty seats, which Adrian followed.

"Hi my handsome brothers. You seem to have a lot of fans, yes!" exclaim Ayunda while staring at Ferdo and Adrian alternately.

"Yes, what else, deck. Your brother was born like this", Adrian replied with bragging.

"I'm sorry I said that. I pulled my words. Only Brother Alfian is handsome", said Ayunda to recite his words.

"Puft", Ferdo held back his laughter by shutting his mouth. Then suddenly his face turned serious, as Adrian glared at him. He doesn't want Adrian to get angry and change his mind to help him.

Adrian briefly explains the purpose they met in a hurry in the cafeteria at this time. Ayunda who heard the explanation of the brother, was shocked and confused. He could not refuse or accept the idea of the brother.

"I think about it first, Brother", he replied by forcing his smile.

"Alright, Yunda. I won't force you" Ferdo said with a friendly smile. Then Adrian and Ferdo say goodbye to Ayunda, who still has the next course. They don't want to interrupt Ayunda's lecture. But before moving on, Adrian had told his sister, that Adrian was waiting for his answer when Ayunda returned from campus later. Although Ayunda objected, she still nodded her head in response to the request of the older brother.

To be continue...
