The Charm Behind the Mist

There's the Other.

~Happy Reading~

Carren heard what Aaric said, so he slapped Aaric's back who was hugging him. He was surprised, so he smiled. "Sister Aaric's on my ledekin?" Ask Carren. Aaric let go of his embrace, then smiled looking at Carren's reddened face, out of embarrassment.

"I'm not being ledekin, just a blunt talk. Time twice proposed to you that way. Not very romantic. Later if you can think well, then I will propose to you to marry me. Good thing you know, if anyone finds out, they'll say I'm a man who doesn't have romantic feelings." Aaric said seriously, but his smiling eyes made Carren smile.

"What is romantic, brother? Wasn't that the other day and the other day romantic, because success surprised me?" Carren asked, because according to him, the way to propose Aaric is very unique and touching.

"If you ask that, I'll have to think about it. Don't think about it again, let me just think about it. Because I'm gonna propose to you." Say Aaric to avoid unnecessary discussion.

"Now we have a deal. You want to date first just married, or get married first just dating." Aaric said with a serious face, making Carren eighth because he was not ready with Aaric's request.

"I'm up to Aaric. How good you think, brother, I'll come." Carren replied, because he believed in Aaric's decision. Whatever his choice, he'll be with Aaric.

"If I were, it would still be like that. Married first, just dating. Because if you're not married, you can't travel. I travel a lot. If we're going out first, we're going to be dating more often this way." Aaric took his phone back and showed it to Carren.

Carren so smiled looking at the hand movements and twinkle in Aaric's eyes. "I'm coming, how good does Brother Aaric think." Carren could already speak casually, looking at Aaric's attitude towards him who was already relaxed.

"Arra, are you sleepy?" Aaric asked when he saw the time on his phone was almost midnight. He thought he'd talk again the next time Carren would take a break. Carren shook his head, as he still wanted to be with Aaric. I wanted to ask you a lot about Aaric.

"alright. Then wait. You want to drink something warm? I'd like to order a hot drink, because at this hour, I can't sleep anymore." Aaric said, considering he will leave at three in the morning to the airport to fly before dawn.

"I'm asking for hot chocolate, brother. Thank you." Thank you." Carren said, considering the favorite drink his mother made if he had to work late at night. Sometimes alternating with pure milk. But in such a place, hot chocolate is better than impure milk.

Aaric looked at Carren, upon hearing his request. "Do you like to drink hot chocolate?" Aaric asked, because he himself liked it very much. He always prepared supplies where he would stay for a long time in that place.

"Yes, Brother. You could say like, because often drink if you have to work late at night. Replace with whole milk." Answer Carren again. Unknowingly, they are learning to know each other's preferences.

"You're sitting there sitting down drinking his hot chocolate, I'm gonna pack my luggage." Said Aaric, because there is no way security comes tidying up his luggage when Carren is with him. Although not byak goods are carried, still must be tidied up. All of her casual clothes and toiletries went into a small bag, while the two suits worn for the meeting were brought.

After everything was tidied up, Aaric sat back on the sofa beside Carren who was holding a hot chocolate cup with both hands. "Arra, we've been talking very far ahead. But you and I don't know each other yet. I was just getting you, you like hot chocolate or whole milk." Aaric gasped when he found out Carren's favorite that he didn't know before.

"If I'm busy, please call so that we can maintain communication and get to know more. So if there is something negative from the outside, we can face it. Our relationship is serious, not like a teenager just learning to date. There will be a lot of serious things we will face. So we need to get to know each other better, to be stronger against it." Aaric spoke seriously, because some time in the future there will be a lot of things going on with his family. So she hoped, Carren would still believe her and support her.

"Because now that I've proposed to you personally, you're the most important person to me. I want you to know that, so that if you hear anything about me, talk to me. Don't draw your own conclusions, without asking me." Aaric said seriously. Seeing that, Carren placed the cup in his hand onto the table.

Aaric was relieved, because Carren could understand. With the way he put the cup, Aaric knew Carren was listening to what he said. Tidsk was being ignorant or ignoring his words.

"The first thing I have to talk to you about, so as not to become a wedge or misunderstand between us. You're not the first woman in my life. There was someone I had loved before. But you don't have to think about it, because he's not in this world with us. I've let go, so now you're the only one in my heart." Said Aaric, then clasped Carren's hand.

"What about you? Because there's no way I'm the first man in your life." That's what Aaric thought, because there's no way Carren didn't have a boyfriend before. Judging from his attitude and face, there must be someone interested in him.

"I asked this, because I didn't like it, exactly couldn't accept the surprise. If you had said it earlier, I wouldn't be bothered if I suddenly heard or faced." Aaric said to convince Carren to speak openly with him.

Carren looked at Aaric, then bowed his face. He was unable to talk about his past while looking at Aaric's face. Though the view is reassuring, but there is seriousness there. "Me too, Brother. We once loved someone, but we've been separated." Carren said while remembering Recky.

"Why did you split up?" Aaric asked seriously, as Carren's remark corroborated his conjecture. "Because he's married, brother." Carren said slowly. Aaric looked at Carren seriously, upon hearing what he said. In his mind, there was a man who let Carren off to marry another woman, meaning that woman was amazingly amazing. To her Aaric, Carren was an amazing woman.

"Are you still communicating?" Ask Aaric again, because Carren's case is different from his. They are still alive and can still communicate. Especially in an era like today, the tools to communicate are in your grasp.
