The Journey of Jinan

Chapters. 64

Because of the actions of Ria and Elena last night who dressed her like a Annabelle doll and brought Ardo into their room, making Jinan this day not dare to meet with Ardo. Even from breakfast to dinner, when Ardo was about to approach him and wanted to talk to him, Jinan always did various ways to get away from the man. She was so embarrassed last night to see Ardo's surprised face looking at her face with a very messed up make-up.

When Jinan had just come out of the toilet in the restaurant where he was staying, he was surprised by the presence of Ardo who was standing next to the door of the female toilet.

"Jinan, why are you avoiding me? What the hell is it? Did I offend you?" ask Ardo.

Jinan did not respond to a question from Ardo, the woman just kept quiet while bowing her head.

"Is it because of last night? Jinan, I'm really sorry if that makes you mad at me. I swear, I didn't mean to laugh at you, it was me. I was just surprised to see your face full of thick makeup."

Jinan looked up at Ardo's words, his face now reddened with the shame of what happened last night again.

"What's wrong with your face? Why is your face so red?" ask Ardo in panic.

"I ..."

"Did the makeup you used last night expire, making your face look like that?" terka Ardo with the panic that has become. He was really afraid if the face of his future wife was irritated because the quality of makeup she wore was not good or even had expired. 

Jinan shook his head slowly. "No. I ..."

"Or don't you eat wrong? We have to go to the nearest clinic, I'm afraid you're poisoned."

"No, Ar. I'm okay, I'm .. I'm just ...."

Jinan swallowed his saliva, it felt like he could not tell the reason why his face could become red like this.

"Why, Ji?" ask Ardo curiously.

"I ... shame. I'm .. I'm ashamed when you see me in such a state as last night" Jinan said slowly. His eyes were now staring back and forth so as not to meet Ardo who would make him even more embarrassed.

"Jinan. Look at me."

Jinan steadied Ardo with doubt.

"You're ashamed that I saw you last night?" Jinan nodded her head slowly.

Ardo sighed. "Jinan. I love your pretty face, but that doesn't mean I love you just because of your face. I love you because I love you, Jinan. Because this heart chose you."

"Originally, you know, there have been a lot of beautiful women who have come near me. Whether it's through my family or those who came to me. But you know what? None of them could interest me even if I was just a close friend. And vou? You are the only woman who can make this heart move to step into a relationship I never thought of before."

"Now I'm asking you. If one day my face becomes deformed and ugly, will you leave me? Or will you avoid me like you did me today?"

Jinan's eyes seemed to be glazed over hearing all of Ardo's words. From his face alone he can guarantee if Ardo says it is sincere from his heart.

"I'm sorry. Forgive me for avoiding you all day" Jinan said regretfully.

"Jinan, I want this to be the last marriage for both of us. I want the two of us to be able to establish a household until we age together. You know, by then our faces will start to wrinkle, and the beauty and good looks we have now will disappear over time. And I want, the changes that happen to our physical later will not diminish our love for each other."

"I'm sorry."

There were no words other than an apology coming out of Jinan's mouth at that moment. Really she really had no intention to think up to there, she was just embarrassed by her very chaotic appearance before her future husband. That's it, nothing more.

"Here you go, don't keep apologizing. You're not wrong anyway. It's better now that you go inside your room to get some rest. Prepare yourself for tomorrow's event. Tomorrow is a tiring day, I don't want you to be exhausted before tomorrow's show."

"I want to go to the ballroom for a while. I haven't seen that room yet. I want to see her for a minute."

Ardo agrees that Jinan, who wants to see the ballroom where their event takes place tomorrow, must not be more than half an hour.

Jinan walked in the opposite direction to where the ballrom was. Ardo who realized that immediately stopped the woman's steps.

"Ballroom's over there, why are you walking the other way?" ask Ardo in wonder.

"Ayla is with her sister Huri. I'm afraid to disturb your sister who's about to rest, so I want to take Ayla first before going to the ballroom."

"Go, I'll take Ayla to the ballroom."

Arriving at the ballroom, Jinan seemed stunned to see the spacious room had now turned into much more beautiful than he had previously seen. She smiled at the beauty of the room. Especially when he imagined a magnificent stage up there that would be his stop tomorrow. It was as if he was dreaming of what was in front of his eyes right now.

Although actually this concept of marriage is not the concept of marriage that Jinan dreamed of, but he couldn't possibly tell Ardo about this because he didn't want to make all of Ardo's efforts to prepare for this go to waste. According to him, what Ardo has given for him is more than enough. Moreover, all the needs of this marriage is 100% financed by Ardo himself. It would not be appropriate if he asked for what he should not ask for.

As he was busy staring at every corner of the room, Jinan was suddenly surprised to see the figure of Rico behind his body.

"Rico," cried Jinan slowly.

Rico smiled at Jinan, then he walked over to Jinan.

"Are you happy with all this, Ji?" rico asked as he stared at the decoration of the room.

Jinan did not answer Rico's question, he just kept silent while staring at any direction.

"Or were you forced to marry that man?"

Rico turned to look towards Jinan, along with Jinan who turned to look towards him as well. A few minutes they looked at each other in silence, making the atmosphere in the room cooler than the AC in there.

"Why did you accept that man, Ji? Why?" asked Rico with an expressionless face.

Ccq ...

Rico and Jinan stared at the open entrance. Ardo is already on the doorstep with baby Ayla in his arms. The man walked up to Jinan and Rico while looking at Jinan's face and ignoring Rico who was there.

"It's late, go back to your room" said Ardo like an order in Jinan's ear.

Ardo was about to hand Ayla over to Jinan, but Jinan did not accept it, he just kept silent while looking around him.

"Em, put it on the floor."

Ardo scrunched his forehead. "The floor?"

"It's okay, just for a moment" Jinan said.

Ardo sighed, only to realize that Jinan did not allow himself to come into contact with those who were not his mahrams.

"Patience, Ar. From tomorrow on, Jinan is all yours, "inner Ardo.

Ardo placed Ayla on the floor of the ballroom, not until five seconds Jinan had grabbed back baby Ayla in his arms.

After Jinan left the ballroom, Ardo walked up to Rico with his flat face.

"I know you like Jinan. Just so you know, from tomorrow Jinan will officially be mine. So I advise you not to think more about my future wife" Ardo said and immediately left Rico there alone.

"Damn," rico swore by hitting the wind.
