THE BEST BROTHERS

S4 Chapter 23 "Love Letter" The Best Brother

"I can't, I really can't if Dio hastily proposes to me. But I can't refuse it. I want to, marry her, and I really can't say no when in front of her, what should I do? Do I take Dio's proposal tomorrow night?" Rania was confused by this. He was pacing around in his room thinking tomorrow night Dio would propose to him.

"Stupid you, Rania. You used to tell your father to get married to Dio. And, now, Dio is really going to propose to you, Rania. He'll propose to you. You should be happy, not confused like this, and scared like this" Rania said softly.

Rania sits in the front seat of her desk. He opened the red box where he kept the letter from Dio. Rania was a beautiful girl in Junior High. He became an idol at his school. Moreover, she is a student who is fairly good at her school. Many of his male friends sent him letters. Many also openly expressed love for Rania in front of all her friends. But, there was not a single male friend of his that he liked other than Dio.

Rania also never replied to letters from her male friends, except for Dio's letter. He only replied to the letters from Dio. Rania often sent letters with Dio, even almost every day they sent letters, even though he was a class. Rania opened the first letter from Dio. She smiled reading the first letter Dio had written for her.

Dear Rania's.

Maybe this is the first time I've sent a letter to a girl friend. Yes, you're the first, the girl I sent the letter to.

Rania, since the first time I saw you, I was amazed by your nature which is not owned by girls in general. Yes, you are a caring student, a smart, clever student, and one more thing, I love to see your beautiful eyes. I'm sorry, I'm not a tombal, but it's reality, Ran.

Rania, thank you for being my friend, being my good study partner. You are different from Ran with other girls who always spread the charm to get attention from men. And, that's what amazes me with you, Ran.

Ah, nevermind. I don't know what else to write. I just want to convey that. I'm glad to be your friend. And, I really admire you, Rania. See you in class tomorrow.

Dio.

Dio always sent a letter to Rania, when she came home from school. She did not put it in Rania's bag or in Rania's desk drawer quietly. He gave it to Rania. Even though they already have cell phones, they prefer to reply to letters. They are afraid that sending chat via mobile phone will be caught by their parents, because the phone is often scrutinized by their parents.

Rania smiled to herself reading the letter. Yeah, funny first letter from Dio. Just to say amazed by him. Dio used to be so humorous in his class. Until Rania is often overwhelmed with jealousy when Dio is approached by other girlfriends. But, Dio always knew, if Rania was jealous, would be angry indistinctly with Dio at that time.

"Where is your old humorous nature, Dio? Which made me fall in love until now, and can't forget it. Do you still have admiration and love for me? As you write in your letters? But, I don't think you love me anymore, Dio. Honestly, I was so weak, remembering all this. Until I can't love anyone but you." Rania was still muttering while reading Dio's letters first.

Almost 1 year, Rania always sent a letter with Dio. Until the last letter from Rania was not replied by Dio. Until now Rania does not know, why Dio did not reply to his letter and he was getting away from Rania. After sending a final letter to Rania. And the contents of the letter, the expression of love from Dio to Rania. How happy that time was. Dio declares his love for Rania, and Rania reciprocates. However, after that Dio got further away. Rania had no idea why Dio was staying away from her. All he knew was that Dio was having problems with his family, and Rania understood that.

Rania read back the last letter from Dio. Where Dio expressed his love for Rania at that time.

To those I admire,

Rania Pratiwi

I don't know what I should write on this piece of paper.

I can't pour it myself even if it's just a drop of heart. No one can represent a self who is distraught with this feeling. I don't know what's going on in this heart, Rania.

Honestly, when I first saw you, I was interested and fascinated by you. I saw at first glance how beautiful you are and how beautiful you look. All these feelings of being heartened happened because you were so beautiful in my eyes. And those eyes, which always foster a sense of serenity in my heart. Yes, those beautiful eyes of yours, Rania. But, I don't know if it suddenly appeared in my heart is it worth me admiring you? And what is this feeling called love? Ah, I don't know. It's too early I know love and declare love, Rania. This is the first time I know love.

You're like a beautiful angel with meaningful eye lyrics,

I am just an ordinary man who can only admire you. But, right now I'm willing to vent this heart.

I told you I love you, Rania. And whatever you say, I love you, love you, and admire you.

I hope you return this letter to me with heart-felt news. And, can answer all the restless hearts during this time. I'm waiting for your answer, Rania.

Who always admired you,

Dio Alfarizi's

Rania shed her tears reading the letter. The last letter from Dio, because after Rania replied to the letter, Dio no longer sent a letter to her. And, tomorrow night, the person he loved so much, would propose to him. But, Rania knew, Dio did not love her anymore.

"Actually who is someone who is in your heart right now Dio? Me or any other woman? If another woman is in your heart, then why did you propose to me and marry me? Is it because you're not feeling well with mom, Abah, dad, and mom? If that's the case, please don't force yourself, if you love another woman, marry your woman, not me, Dio." Rania said softly and sobbed. He folded Dio's letter again and put it in his box again.

The sound of knocking on the door of Rania's room. Reno went into her favorite daughter's room. Reno knew her son was heartbroken right now. Reno approached Rania and sat down beside Rania.

"Dad, does Dio really love me? Why did she suddenly accept this match? Doesn't he have another woman?" ask Rania to Reno.

"Son, if she had another woman, how could she possibly accept this matchmaking? Look, Dio really loves you, son. I saw his sincerity yesterday when he asked you to Dad. I'm sure he loves you, as he wrote in the letter in this box" Reno replied.

"So dad, read all?"ask Rania.

"Yes, I read all the love letters from Dio for you, and it seems like you love Dio too. Because I saw you never had a lover. Yes, even though Evan repeatedly asks you to father, but I know you don't love him" Reno replied.

"Dad knows" said Rania.

"It's not that you know, baby. Because we're your parents, so know what you like, and what makes you comfortable. I know, you love Dio, don't dodge it." Ana suddenly enters Rania's room, standing between Reno and Rania.

"Mother, father, Rania wasn't sure. Dio is different from before. Dio is now not the one who used to love Rania. Rania is sure, Dio does not love Rania anymore, father, mother," said Rania.

"Then what's the point of him asking you from dad, if he's not in love? That's impossible, son. If he does not love, he refuses. The proof is that he asked you to father blatantly. If not love, it's not like this, son," Reno explained.

"Yes, dad. But this is different" said Rania.

"Different what? Maybe you just feel different, because it has not met for a long time, has rarely chatted, you have your own world now, Dio was like that," explained Ana.

"Yes, maybe, mom. But, I don't know. I followed what my father and mother said, if Dio is the best for Rania, yes. Rania will strengthen this heart, to accept Dio," said Rania.

"That dong, the time has not been bought the ring so, and in his Dio reject?" reno.

"Ih, how do you know? Rania was invited by Dio to buy a ring?" ask Rania.

"Yes, it was Dio who told me" Reno replied.

"Oh .. did he say?"

"Yes, honey. You have rested, tomorrow you do not need to go to the office, I want to take you to the Najwa boutique. Choosing a dress for you, with mom and Dio as well," said Ana.

"Dad not invited?" ask Reno.

"No, no" answered Ana.

"Okay, it's okay. It's already the daughter of a beautiful father, who is about to get married, go to sleep. Do you want to read a fairy tale? Before you became a full-fledged Dio woman?" reno.

"Dad, time in the fairy tale bacain? Fester. This is Rania taking a break. Father and mother also rest," said Rania.

"Great dreams too, dad. Good night" said Rania.

Reno and Ana exit Rania's room. Rania goes into her bathroom, she washes her face before going to bed. After coming out of the bathroom, he threw himself on the bed. He thought back to Dio, who continued to disturb his entire brain.

"In Dio's years, I tried to forget you, but it was hard. And now, you're going to marry me? But, I don't know, do you still love me like you used to, Dio?" rania Gumam.

Rania tries to close her eyes, and forgets about Dio who still loves her or not.

^^^^

Annisa sits with Dio on the back porch near the pool. Annisa knows, Dio was forced to do all this. But how else, Dio has decided to propose to Rania tomorrow night. Even she has prepared all her needs, including tomorrow choosing a dress at the Najwa boutique.

"Dio, you ask me one more time, son. Are you gonna have to do all this?" ask Annisa.

"Mother, Dio was not forced, Dio really wanted to marry Rania. And, not that this has been talked about by mother and Abah long ago, even when Dio was in High School you were already in the spirit of matching us," replied Dio.

"Yes, it's like that. But, you don't love Rania, do you? Aren't you trying to find another woman, and just love another woman, son?" Annisa suggested that to Dio.

"Mother, I know women, the first I wear is mother, the second, Rania, and finally Najwa. Yes, I still love Najwa very much. But, that can't be mom. And, Rania, Dio used to be amazed at him, but after that .. ah .. already do not discuss the former, mother. Dio is not forced to propose to Rania. And, Dio will try to love Rania again" Dio said.

"Son, love is not a game, and marriage is a sacred thing. Don't get married because you have to, Dio. Mommy wants you to be happy" Annisa said.

"Honestly, happy Dio is Najwa, Mother. But circumstances that cannot unite us. She's my Haram lover to marry. And, if I don't marry Rania, until when will I be alone? After all, I can't marry Najwa at any time" Dio said.

"Yes, mom knows that. But, aren't you willing to try looking for anything other than Rania?"ask Annisa.

"I'm looking for him who's blessed mother and brother. Om Reno and Aunt Ana agree too, right? Then why should I bother looking for another, Mother? After all, you all agreed to it, and betrothed us," Dio replied.

"But, just yesterday you cut off your relationship with Najwa, isn't that too soon, son? You don't be selfish, don't cover up your feelings, if you're not ready, don't force it" Annisa said.

"You are married to Rania or not to Rania, it will definitely hurt Najwa, Mother. And, I don't want to put it off. Why delay, if still sick, and can not have Najwa, mother," said Dio.

"Dio, forgive Abah, son," said Arsyad suddenly appearing behind Dio and Annisa who were chatting.

"Change, don't be like that, it's because of circumstances. Don't feel guilty, this is the way" Dio said.

"Are you sure you're getting married to Rania?" ask Arsyad.

"Yes, Abah," Dio replied firmly.

"Then how do you feel?" ask Arsyad.

"All of that will go with time, Abah," replied Dio.

"Yes, if it's your decision, how else" said Dio.

"Yes, Abah. If not with Rania, I can't be with Najwa either, right?" ask Dio.

"Yes, like that. Forgive abah. Suppose Abah told you a long time ago, it wouldn't be like this, Dio," said Arsyad..

"Already Abah, don't talk like that anymore" said Dio.

"Oh, yes Dio. Are you going to take Aunt Ana to the boutique tomorrow to pick a dress for Rania?" ask Annisa.

"Yes, I told Najwa too, mother," replied Dio.

"Oh, yes, I have. Then how's Najwa?" ask Annisa.

"Yes like that, she will also show the latest wedding dress design, she said," replied Dio.

The three of them continued their conversation. And, as they chatted Najwa came looking for his brother.

"Change, I'm looking here" said Najwa spoiledly.

"What's looking for, Abah?" ask Arsyad.

"Tomorrow to take Najwa to the airport, Abah," replied Najwa.

"For?" ask Arsyad.

"Habibi asked me to come there, to let him go to Budapest," replied Najwa.

"Alright, tomorrow Abah interracial," said Arsyad.

"Mother is not invited, is it?"ask Annisa.

"Yes mother come along, later after the airport directly to the boutique, so would you choose a dress for Rania?" ask Najwa.

"Okay, you're coming" replied Annisa.

"I wasn't invited, was I?" raffi was behind Najwa.

"If you want to come, come, Raf. Actually, I'm going there anyway. Because he forced, yes I wanted to," said Najwa.

"I'm alone, who wasn't invited?" Dio suddenly made a sound and wanted to come along as well.

"Emm .. if you want to come," said Najwa.

"Okay, does that mean tomorrow you're going with all this?" ask Arsyad.

"Yes if you want" replied Arsyad.

They gathered together on the back porch until late at night. Najwa actually had a tight chest. Hearing Dio will choose a wedding dress for Rania. But, whatever the power, he and Dio can't unite.
