Pursuing Love in the Past

The Ferdo Engagement Event

Happy Reading 😊

🌸🌸🌸

Ferdo walked out of his room in a hasty step, after he had just finished contacting someone who was his confidant. His steps stopped when he was right in front of the door of Adrian's room. He went inside without knocking on the door, to discuss something that he thought was very important. Ferdo immediately walked up to Adrian's table and presented his purpose without a final word. He asks Adrian for help, to do something to him.

"At least you sit down, first", Adrian's slightly upset about Ferdo's hasty attitude.

"No need! I just want this done right away", said Ferdo who looked very agitated.

"You calm down, I will definitely help you. But not in a hurry like this", said Adrian firmly, when approaching Ferdo who was still standing in his place.

Then Adrian took Ferdo out of his room, to calm himself down somewhere. They also walked down the office hallway. While in the office hallway, Ferdo and Adrian see Winda walking in a hurry to get to Ferdo. Almost had his legs slipped, because of the high heels he used.

"Sir!" they shouted at him simultaneously while holding his hand. "Almost" said Ferdo with a breath of breath.

Winda looked up at Ferdo and Adrian alternately. His smile expanded, as two men were watching him at once.

"You're okay, right?" asked Ferdo with worry, which faded the smile on Winda's face. The question was actually wanted to hear from Adrian's mouth, but Adrian just kept quiet without saying a word.

Winda shook his head, "i'm fine", he replied with a forced smile.

"O, okay if so", said Adrian by removing the handle directly, which makes Winda more sad.

Winda immediately dismissed his thoughts about Adrian. He didn't want to be too hopeful for the man who had rejected him. "Ferdo, I need your signature" he said, trying to distract her, to cover up her current feelings.

"Is that really important?" asked Ferdo while looking at Winda.

"Hmm, actually it can still be waited until tomorrow" said Winda who looks to think. "O, yes Fer..."

"OK, just give it to Tya. We are in a hurry" said Ferdo who immediately stepped foot, without listening to the next word of Winda.

"Huft, in case I just want to ask, is it true next week engagement? That's it" said Winda while grumbling.

The day seemed to pass very short, until the day that Ferdo never wanted arrived. Even he still clearly remembered Ayunda's facial expression, when telling the truth about the grandfather's rejection of him. From then on, the Ayunda began to change.

Today is Ferdo's day of battle with Siska. All preparations have been arranged by Siska and her family. Siska is in her room with her favorite make up artist. Even the clothes he wears have been specially designed by famous designers.

"Perfect!" siska said proudly as she stood in front of the reflecting glass.

In a different room Ferdo looked extremely agitated, he was walking back and forth like a man waiting outside the operating room.

"Calm down!" sergeant Adrian, who was very upset by Ferdo's panic.

"You can calm down, 'cause you're not getting engaged!" reply Ferdo with emotion.

"I'm sorry", Adrian said as he walked over to Ferdo. "I didn't mean it that way. I just want you to calm down for a minute, so that none of our plans fail" he said, calming Ferdo down.

Ferdo nodded his head, then stood in front of the mirror while paying attention to his current appearance. "May all go according to our plan" he said with a grin.

Tok.

"It's me, your appointment" replied someone from behind the door.

Chequek.

The woman immediately opened the door, as Ferdo allowed her to enter. "How, Son. Are you ready?" ask Mery Winda's mother.

"Yes, auntie", she replied, hugging Mery.

"Then, come on!" take her by holding Ferdo's hand. "If your mama is still alive, she must be very happy to see her son engaged at this time" he said softly, leading Ferdo to stop his steps.

Ferdo gasped as he listened to his tantric speech. He recalled the events of 12 years ago, when he lost both of his parents. Ferdo's tears fell freely on his cheeks.

"Don't be sad again, son! They were quiet in His heaven" said Mery, calming Ferdo. "I'm sorry that auntie has made you remember them again" she said with a clear face while gently rubbing Ferdo's tears.

"I'm fine, Auntie", said Ferdo with a forced smile.

"If you smile like this, you're very handsome, son" Mery said with a big smile. "Come, let's go down", gently invite Mery, who again holds Ferdo's hand. "You have to go with her, too, right!" he said by glancing at Adrian who was silent when watching the interaction of Mery and Ferdo.

"Yes, Auntie", Adrian replied with a wry smile.

They also walked down the stairs, to where the engagement party was held. All eyes looked in awe at Ferdo's good looks, his charismatic face giving charm to women, even though he would soon be engaged. Shortly after Ferdo came down, Siska also came down the stairs gracefully. The peach-colored dress that wrapped her body distracted every guest from her.

"Look at your prospective fiancee" said Mery by elbowing Ferdo's arm, but his attention was only on his men who never go nongol. He had asked the man to mess up the party before the engagement began.

"Hi dear", said Siska, which made Ferdo spontaneously turn towards him. Their beads met each other, but Ferdo quickly shifted his gaze. "Didn't you want to praise me today?" siska asked with a happy smile.

Ferdo ignored Siska's question, he shifted his body slightly, to approach Adrian. "Where are they? Why haven't they started yet?" whispered Ferdo who was impatient the party was over.

"Adrians... Ferdo whispered what?" siska asked with her lips pursed.

"Oh, that's.he was just praising your beauty" he said with origin. Ferdo glared sharply at him.

"Thank you, baby. But you can say it directly", he said spoiledly.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what to answer if asked suddenly", he whispered to Ferdo, but did not dampen Ferdo's anger.

The host has distracted everyone, all eyes on him who is MC at Ferdo and Siska's engagement. He asks Ferdo and Siska to stand side by side, as the ring embedding will soon begin. Siska looked more aggressive, hurriedly grabbing Ferdo's hand which was still in its original place.

"Don't hurry, sweet lady!" MC exclaims that make Siska blush, more precisely shy.

Ferdo was forced to step foot into the place provided by the EO. He stood on the right side of Siska, while circulating his gaze. Let alone Adrian, the man who was not seen at all. "What's this?" he muttered with an annoyed face.

"Hem, why?" siska asked who heard Ferdo muttering. "Is there an event that doesn't suit your wishes?" ask Siska back.

"It's nothing", reply Ferdo flat.

Now you can be arrogant, look at it later after we become husband and wife, inner Siska.

To be continue...
