Romance at 17 Years Old
ADU17 CHAPTER 24 - Necklace and Promise
One week before try out.
This week Gala invited Giselle to visit a fun fair in the middle of the city.
The plan is they will go there along with his other friends, but it turns out they all already have their own plans.
Anjas invites Lili to watch their favorite movie that just aired in the cinema.
Anjas and Usman have a basketball game to play.
Be today Gala and Giselle just go alone to the fun fair. Choosing the afternoon so as not to get too hot and can watch the beautiful twilight in Jakarta and change the night.
After performing the magrib prayer at the places of worship available there, Gala and Gisel sought a place to eat.
They had gone around and now they were quite tired.
Chicken noodle shops are their choice.
"Sir, the chicken noodles are 2," said Galang began ordering to the seller.
"Gala, I'm chicken meatball noodles."
Gala nodded.
"Sir, regular chicken noodles 1, meatball chicken noodles 1."
"Drink?" bargain that father.
Gala and Giselle immediately replied in a compact manner, "Tea is warm."
Making both chuckle and the fathers of the chicken noodle seller also smile too.
5 Minutes wait and their order has reached the table. They ate it voraciously, even Gisel did not hesitate when the portion of the meal was more than Gala.
"I don't like meatballs" Gala said as Giselle was about to give her 1.
"I like her you," Gala chimps again, making Giselle instantly snort.
"I love chicken meatball noodles," replied Giselle and stuck out her tongue, poking.
After eating, they decided to go home. Gala had promised both of Giselle's parents that she would take Giselle home at 8 p.m.
And Gala tried to keep it.
They walk hand in hand with hand. Towards the parking lot until you reach the Gala motorbike.
Before putting a helmet on the girl, Gala reached into something in the pocket of the jacket she was wearing. Then gave a small object in his grasp to Giselle.
"What's this?"
"Open up."
Giselle opened the Gala's hand and saw a beautiful necklace there, with a pendulum of a crystal so beautiful.
"For you" said Gala.
As long as Giselle was silent, she was still stunned by the beauty of the necklace. The necklace that Giselle sure wasn't Gala bought inside earlier. Because they never separate and never once headed for knickknacks like that.
"The crystal is our hope, while these 2 rings are our promise."
"Promise?" ask Giselle.
"Yes, once our expectations are met, we will get married" Gala explained.
It made Giselle say nothing more. Only able to stare at Gala until their gazes met and felt so deep.
Giselle always expressed her hope about the future, about wanting to become a PNS, whose life will be guaranteed by the state even until retirement, like her father.
But the road to get there is not easy, because there are too many rivals.
"What if I can't grant my wish, don't we get married?"
Gala chuckled, but did not break the gaze of the two.
"Try first and I'll do the same."
"What is Gala's hope? all this time it was just about my expectations that were discussed."
Giselle snorted, when she wanted to talk seriously, Gala always teased her.
Giselle's frustration disappeared as Gala put the necklace around her neck. Touching her nape makes Giselle goosebumps.
"Never take off the necklace, huh?"
"Come on," replied Giselle, as if unconcerned as she would always remember the Gala's words.
"Where did you buy this necklace?" ask Giselle.
Now Gala began to put a helmet on for the girl. Then put on his own helmet.
"Gift ciki," Gala replied, she immediately laughed when she saw Giselle's annoyed face.
"Yes, I'm sorry, don't frown anymore" Gala said after her laughter subsided.
"Trust me, necklaces are expensive, don't get lost" Gala said.
He got on the bike and pulled Giselle to sit behind him. This time Giselle was wearing jeans, so she did not sit sideways anymore and was able to hug Gala tightly using both hands.
Once it was ready, Gala also turned the gas motor and immediately came out of the fun fair area.
The road slowly enjoys the night breeze and the time together with Giselle.
The sky tonight also seemed so bright, as if supporting the two to linger together.
Giselle was no longer awkward to hug Gala tightly. Even Gala who no longer feels uncomfortable when her back feels a soft touch. He's used to it.
If Giselle didn't hug him, she instead felt annoyed.
"Don't hug another guy like this, okay?"
"I'm a cheap girl!" sahut Giselle fast.
"Bunda said, when your Elementary School is chasing Septian, Junior High School Mr. Mamat, my High School, later you may have a new target!" ketus Gala's.
Talk about the past so much that Giselle likes, while she is only Giselle who is able to get into her frozen heart.
"Take college in the same place as me!" giselle replied no less. Until now only Gala has not decided to go to college where.
And hearing that again Gala did not answer, making Giselle become upset herself.
Giselle wanted to break her embrace, but Gala quickly held Gisel's hand. Touch it gently until it links their fingers.
Giselle was so weak with a fierce soft touch like this, making her not warty and could only obey. His heart was also easily broken.
On the way home they no longer talked, only their hands were still together.
Until Gala finally stopped her bike in front of Giselle's house.
Gisel goes down and Gala takes off her helmet.
"Where I go to college, nothing will change between us. Unless your heart changes."
"Why am I wrong, you don't want to be with me" replied Giselle with a sour face.
And Gala who saw that also smiled a little. He took Giselle's hand back and held her.
"Trust me."
"Creduce what?"
"Sometimes we'll get married."
"When?"
"Life 25."
"Promise?" tagih Giselle was excited, she also put forward her little finger.
"Promise," Gala replied, and linked her little finger to Giselle.
After Giselle's smile returns, the new Gala lets Giselle in.
Gala continues to watch Giselle leave, until the girl actually enters the house.
"Bismilah" said Gala.
Convince her heart that all the hopes she has put together with Giselle will go well.
