The boss man looked a little troubled while wearing a black t-shirt. Must be a cut in his stomach. And he shouldn't be able to move much.
" I help ", Kirana finally offered herself, even though she was a little awkward. " Sit down. You're too tall ... ".
A smile was etched as the boss man started to sit on the chair. " Thank you .. well, I trouble you keep ya ".
" It's not free" Kirana interrupted quickly. Contrast that with her slow movements that helped to put the black shirt on.
" Oh yeah... ", alend the boss man laughed.
" Sit down", pinta Alend later. " We're going to talk a lot of things, aren't we ? ".
" Wedding ... Maybe even your marriage will be accelerated. Sir.... ehm' mas Alend already know, right ?. Has it been ... it turns out .. mas Alend also likes mba Cinta ?".
Without a prologue, Kirana started the conversation clearly. Directly towards the target, like an arc released after going through a high-accuracy process. It darted quickly and instantly tore apart what was referred to as a pleasantries.
" This includes the question ? ".
Kirana replied with a nod and a confident eye light.
" If I answer it .. means there are only two more questions left. You sure ? ", Syailendra looked at the girl in front of him with an affirming look.
" Yes", Kirana's firm answer was certain. " Because Alend's answer is decisive, I will continue this game or not ".
" Well .. I like your style ", Syailendra is still seen stalling. " So....".
" Did you like Mba Love ? ", asked Kirana again, snatching quickly and making Syailendra smile.
" No .. He's just a good friend to me ".
" Mas Alend .. would you help me unite Mba Love and her lover ? ".
" Hey Rana. That's not a question, but it's a request ". Syailendra was a little surprised, his friendly face was so obvious that it showed a small bang that suddenly boomed in his heart.
" Mas make the rules if the answer is only 'yes' and 'no'. There are no rules on how to form that question. I still remain in the corridor of this game koq ".
" Haduuuuh.
" Mas Aleeeeeend .."., ", and Kirana stared with sparks of cute eyes that were adorable like a kitten who was being battered.
" Okay.. yes ".
Kirana also smiled with a fairly satisfied expression, while Syailendra faced like a gambler who lost a bet.
Smart girl ... hiss the man in heart. And he was fascinated with a soft face that had sharp but warm eyes, implying the personality of an intelligent woman.
" But the next question is not now .. later, there will be a time ".
" Hey ... The three questions were only valid this afternoon ", hastily Syailendra protested.
" Sorry ..... The rule is only three questions and does not discuss about when ... remember? mas just said ... You can meet me this afternoon and ask me three questions with yes and no answers ".
Kirana raised her two perfectly curved eyebrows without the addition of painting, making her two jelly eyeballs stare firmly at Syailendra. But to this man sitting before her, it somehow seemed so adorable. Ah... really a very sweet little sister, inner Syailendra without holding back a smile.
" He. he. he. he. your detail and perfectionist nature must be down from Om Mandala. Okay.... next, what should I do for your cupid project ? ". Syailendra finally gave up.
" Monday afternoon or evening, but it looks like afternoon, I was asked to meet with om and aunt. At that time Mas Alend also had to tell them about the fact that Mas Alend could not accept this engagement.... ".
" Huh?!!. .... Am I?? ", Syailendra pointed at his own face with an expression of disbelief. " How can ?.. when you're the one who will meet them ".
" Yeah... I've never ... emmh.. has been ding'... once, yes just met om & aunt Raihan, where might immediately say ... please cancel this engagement plan, because your son does not love my brother, and brother also actually already loves someone else.... even thought I had a crush first the same mas Alend ".
" He .. he.. he... neither does pa-pa .... ". Syailendra's naughtiness comes off casually and only means to flirt.
" Hiiih... ngarep' .. no!!! ". Spontaneous Kirana flashed a sneering tone with an expression like a bee stung person.
But.. dug-dug... dug-dug.... dug-dug....... dug-dug..... the heart beat of the girl was hammering even faster, and the nervousness was faintly visible from her face. It made Syailendra laugh out loud, as if she was enjoying every expression of this sweet sister without knowing what she was really feeling.
" Yes.yeah...did be a doctor as sweet and beautiful as Rana many men have a crush. Butiiii.... why yesterday night no one nemenin his Sunday night?.... is still a picky stage huh ? ".
" Mas Alend ... we are discussing mba Cinta. do not switch the topic dong ", Kirana was pouting.
" He. he. he. he.. Yes, but must have had a bustle, right ? ".
" Mr... please deh .... ". Kirana acted as if sulking.
But that pounding in the heart, then became the main reason he behaved like a boy, sulking long when tempted by someone close to him. Wait a minute .... is it close?. Is that Rana?. Since when is ?.... ah, it just claims your one-sided feelings. Or have you been so fascinated with this guy ?. It looks like that, Rana ? .
" Okay.... Then you have a plan what sweet sister ? ". Syailendra asked with a smile.
And that smile was the same smile, which had managed to create a tempest in Kirana's heart. Creating two opposing camps. Between the instincts of a girl who has been captivated and the arrogance of a woman with because it holds her pride.
The flower that must be edited, should not bow its petals to the bee .
Duuuhu.... Kirana, how is it ?.
" Kan' I said earlier ", Kirana also returned to issue an invisible catfish, a habit when she began to get upset.
" So that's just your plan ??? ". A pair of grayish-brown eyeballs were enlarged, exposing the layered iris petals.
" Will not work for my parents" Syailendra said again with a small sigh.
" Come on, how's dong? ", kirana was starting to look frustrated. "I have no other idea. Time is it anyway ?. People want fiancee to continue marriage 'kan have to love each other mas ".
" For a widower like me. Most of them will say .... try it first, she's a nice and beautiful girl, yes time not interested in you. Not that you are close? ..... or..... ".
" Stop.... ", Kirana hurriedly stopped the man before her who was transformed into an impersonator. " Even though Mas Alend also said that Mba Cinta already has someone she likes ? ".
" He. he. he. little brother, this is the world of desperate adults. If your lover does not move. And you know?. Your mom is the perfect candidate. According to our family, for someone like me. Of course Love is very appropriate. Moreover, aunt' Hana was almost desperate .... ".
" So you think you're a hero.
" Waaah .... Is that beautiful what I mean ? ", Syailendra said with a slightly quivering nostril, it seems like she is too proud. " There must also be a business reason in it ".
Kirana straightened her seat when she heard the last sentence that escaped Syailendra's lips. Somehow something tickled and disturbed his heart, creating a vibration with frequency that felt a little painful.
" Om Juna is not such a person, he would not sacrifice his own son for a matter. I disagree ", Kirana said firmly.
" O'ouw. The reason for business is only one of the reinforcement.is not already common among entrepreneurs, business marriages like that ".
" But not for my family ".
" Rana ... sorry ..". ", suddenly Syailendra felt guilty with her presumption. " Can we refocus .... ".
" Mas himself who widened his problem ", snorted Kirana in annoyance.
" Sure!!. and you promised ".
" Yes..so, what should I do ? ".
Kirana was silent for quite a while, while Syailendra who was sitting in front of her also seemed to be biting at the corners of her own lips. The boss man also looks so maximize the ability of his right-left brain. After a while .........
" Rana ... You're just my girlfriend ".
" What ?????!!!! ".
....................
Evening has just slipped in the horizon contest, and replaced with a slightly cool night due to drizzle. The insistent Raka escorted Ardelia to the girl's house, currently sitting down while enjoying a cup of warm tea. Befriended the newly matured cornbasket, making the young man's mouth fizzing due to the heat and also the sting of the little green hot peppers for the negligent.
" It's soooo. Can you do something like this, right ? ".
" Of course ", replied Ardelia confidently
" It's good to make a aunt ? ", asked Raka then while looking at her mother Ardelia, Aunt Palupi.
" Do you doubt it ? ".
" In that case, make something like this every time I ask. um, every day maybe ".
" Ish!!!", and Ardelia just smudged her lips.
" Mas Raka, thank you for writing Ardel. Even so troublesome ", finally a woman with calm stature.with her skin as white as radish it interrupts the conversation. The expression that was displayed started to get serious.
" Aunty.
" Aunty too ".
" Then .... Aunt first ".
" If it's about me, it should ask for my opinion first ". But Ardelia interrupted quickly. His pair of eyes suddenly looked dull with a gentle vibration that tore at comfort.
" It's about us, of course your opinion is very heard and needed ". That is how Raka touched and calmed Ardelia with her gentle yet earnest speech.
" Did Raka know everything ? ", asked Palupi then while staring at the two lovebirds before him alternately.
" mommy... ", Ardelia touched her mother's fingers. He looked at the request, but his mother smiled calmly.
" Raka should know dear ", said the woman while squeezing her daughter's fingers to calm down.
" I ... groped a little and guessed it. About Arya Sanjaya's family proposal ? ".
" Not a proposal ... in fact, our family who came volunteered for an arranged marriage. Don't get me wrong, that's beyond my approval, as Ardelia's mother. Her stubborn papi. I never agreed to it. I'm against it ".
" mommy ...... ". Ardelia got up from her seat, approached her mother, and hugged her tightly.
" For any time, my mother will oppose it. Don't sacrifice yourself, baby ..... ".
" I'm fine ..... will always be fine, mami don't worry .... It's gonna be okay ".
Two beautiful women who are fragile but strengthen each other. The purest love and affection are indisputable, look at the two of them supporting each other. Ignoring the pain he was in, to see others happy. In fact, both are very fragile and languid.
" Aunty.".", Raka's heavy voice broke the atmosphere. The two women were now staring at him.
" Ardelia ". Raka uttered it with the clearest tone created from a true conviction. " I'll protect Ardelia ".
" Ti-no !!... a-I. I will comply with papi's request .... ".
" What for what, baby ? what do you expect from a man who just happens to be your real father. The real man is the worst man I've ever met ".
" mommy.... ", Ardelia only further tightened her embrace on the beloved woman.
" Don't sacrifice yourself, your love and your life. For what? a confession?... Baby, we don't need any of that. They are the ones who cannot live, even with our shadows. Treasure? ... We don't need. Family? .... quite cute' beside mommy ".
Wasted out, that was how Raka translated a conclusion from what she saw at the moment. Two strong women who strengthen each other make the side of his sense of responsibility as a man tempestuous. Establish a decision he has made.
" Aunty ... sorry .... ", Raka interrupted and made the woman who was in the arms of her daughter look back at her. With a face that began to sparkle as if a hanging cloud had blurred.
" Next week, my family will come to propose to Adelia. And the marriage .... this month will be done ".
" Raka... you, never conferred with me. ", Ardelia sounded protesting.
" Was Raka so fast? .... Has your family agreed to it ? ". Palupi was surprised.
" Don't we have to race against the time and desire of Ardelia's papa ?. Then Raka turned to stare intently at Ardelia. " And also .. I regret your attitude that does not want to be frank with me ".
I don't know why the sentence was like a row of darts that shot then slammed into his chest. Ardelia even seemed to tremble, either holding back the anger or enduring the intense pain in her heart. To be sure, the girl felt cornered by Raka's attitude and words.
" What do you mean ? ", sis Ardelia while releasing her embrace from the mother. Stand up straight and return Raka's gaze.
" I waited for you .. But you never told me what it was. Till.... ".
" Enough Raka ! ", sambar Ardelia and make Raka stop talking. " It's night .. I'm tired, you go home ".
" Samela .... ". The touch was accompanied by a gentle reprimand from Palupi for his daughter.
" Aunte Hana must be worried about you, come home Raka ".
" Well ... but.. deliver me to the front of the complex ".
Ardelia nodded, then she quickly darted away from the comfortable living room. Carrying a rumble in his head, covering up the fear that made his tears cornered.
Meanwhile, Raka, after saying goodbye to her mother Ardelia immediately rushed to follow the girl who was no longer seen. Now there lives a Palupi who looks at the two young people. There was a bitter smile at the corner of his lips, but the most beautiful prayer flowed without edges, he said to the Most Love for the sake of the happiness of his only daughter.
................................
He is the best you have given me
He is one of the embodiments of your affection in the world
If my past sins were truly unforgivable
Please grant me this one prayer
Let her be happy with her true love
