That Handsome Ketos, my Beloved
New Year Together



Afternoon at Dinda's House


"Ryan, let's eat" Satrio asked. He and Dinda sat down at the dinner table to wait for Ryan. On the table there are already many dishes such as fried noodles, fu yung hai, roasted chicken, vegetables, and others.


"Thank you, Om," Ryan said with a smile.


"Papa likes this the most." Dinda took a piece of fu yung hai to Satrio's plate.


"We pray first." Satrio began to lead the prayer and the three of them ate together. Satrio occasionally glanced at Ryan and he saw that Ryan only ate a little.


"Ryan, you don't have to be shy with Papa. Eat a lot of ya," said Satrio after he had finished eating.


"Papa?" dinda was surprised.


"Yes, Ryan's son was Papa's best friend. Consider him Papa's son" Satrio replied as he looked at Ryan.


"Yes, Pa. Thanks," said Ryan.


"No, Pa. Why can he call me Papa?" dinda was confused.


"Why? She's Papa's son-in-law, right?" reply Satrio.


"Pa," Dinda said as she looked at Satrio's face with her face blushing in embarrassment.


"Yes, you continue to eat with Ryan. Papa has finished eating" said Satrio. He stood up and took his plate to the kitchen.


"Papa likes to joke, you don't get into the heart." Dinda spoke while tidying up the dirty dishes on the table.


"No, if it's really good, too" Ryan said. He also helped Dinda tidy up the dirty dishes. Then, the two of them brought the dishes to the kitchen to wash.


"What good?" dinda asked while looking at Ryan. He was still focused on washing the dirty dishes.


"Papa admits I'm his future son-in-law now. Later Papa can admit I'm his son-in-law" Ryan replied after Dinda finished washing the dishes.


"Are you serious?" dinda asked in an intimidating tone.


"Hmm." said Ryan while hugging Dinda.


"Tomorrow new year, but Papa is not home" said Dinda, leaning her head on Ryan's shoulder.


“What do you want to do tomorrow?” ask Ryan.


“I want to see fireworks anyway. From small, Papa same Ci Cindy temenin I see fireworks every night new year.” Dinda answered while looking at the window.


“You want to rooftop cafe?” ryan asked, clenching his forehead. He could only think that the rooftop cafe was the ideal place to see fireworks.


“Hahaha, that's not what I meant. I want you to come here again tomorrow. We can both see the fireworks from my house,”


“OK. I'll come back tomorrow, yeah. Good night." Ryan waved his left hand with a smile.


“Night too," replied Dinda who immediately replied to a wave of Ryan's hand.

Dinda ran to open the door. I can't wait to welcome Ryan this afternoon.


“Halo, Honey,” Ryan said in an enthusiastic tone.


”Halo also, Dear.” Dinda greeted Ryan with one warm hug. Ryan spontaneously returned the hug.


"Why? You miss me so much?" ryan asked who was deliberately flirting with his girlfriend.


"Kangen doang" replied Dinda.


"Relatedly? The time is not very bad with your handsome boyfriend," said Ryan with a smile.


"We also met yesterday."


“You wait a minute, yes. I take drinking water first for you,” said Dinda. He immediately went to the kitchen to get water for him and for Ryan. After that, he returned to the living room and placed it on the table.


”Thank you.” Ryan took his glass and drank the water.


“We watch a movie first, yes?” ask Dinda.


“Film what?” sahut Ryan's.


“Home Alone 2." Dinda took the TV remote and played the movie.


”You like the movie?” ryan asked curiously.


“Iya,” replied Dinda while nodding. Then, Dinda looked for something in the living room desk drawer.


”I like it too," said Ryan.


“Nih, there's popcorn too. You want to not?” dinda said as she thrust the popcorn towards Ryan.


“You've made great preparations, yes.” Ryan took the popcorn from Dinda's hand and began to feed it into Dinda's mouth.


“You don't want to eat the popcorn?” ask Dinda.


“Why if bribed with you,” replied Ryan with a smile.


“Manja is so.” Dinda took some popcorn into her hand and then fed it to her boyfriend's mouth.


“Hahaha, thank you, dear," said Ryan as he stroked Dinda's hair. They both focus on watching the movie until it's over.


“Yeah, the movie is already good."


“You saw there first, there were fireworks,” Ryan said as he pointed towards the window. Dinda looked over and started to get excited again.


“Let's see the fireworks!” bring Dinda. Ryan nodded and accompanied Dinda to the balcony to see the fireworks in person.


"It's really pretty, the fireworks" said Dinda, smiling happily.


"Yes. You don't want to try fireworks?" ask Ryan.


"I'm not getting. Have you ever played?" dinda stared directly at Ryan.


"Here I was, but it's with my Mommy" Ryan said.


"Father, even though we can't play fireworks now, the important thing is that we can both see fireworks directly every new year" Ryan added with a smile and embrace Dinda's shoulder.


"Yes, you really are" Dinda said as she nodded. Ryan grabbed Dinda's hands and looked at her boyfriend's eyes with a deep look.


“I love you,” says Ryan.


“I love you too,” says Dinda.


“Thank you already want to be my girlfriend, thank you for all the moments that we have spent together, and thank you because you are still beside me until now. I love you so much, Dinda,” Ryan said as he hugged Dinda.


“You are so sweet really,” said Dinda while pinching both cheeks Ryan.


“Yes, you don't want to say anything to me?” ryan asked as he held Dinda's cheeks with a hopeful face.


“In this new year, I hope we can get to know each other more and hopefully we can achieve our ideals." Dinda answered with a smile.


“What are your ideals?” ryan asked curiously.


“I want to be a fashion designer, if you?” reply Dinda while looking at Ryan's face.


“I want to be a doctor. If so, let's pray and learn together every day from now on, how?" bargain Ryan.


“Iya, I agree," replied Dinda while nodding.
