The Love Between Two Countries

Beliefs

Azharin abandoned her intention to return home. Azharin again stepped closer to Bernard. Bernard watched in silence.

Azharin chose to sit on the edge of the hotel bed. "Dear, I'm sorry. I don't give you a kiss, I don't love you. Is that so important to you?"

"Not really. Relationships should not only rely on that alone, but rely on an understanding of unspoken feelings as well. I'm sorry I made that a yardstick." Bernard said with a full smile. He realized Azharin was not comfortable with the way she thought.

"Trust me. I'm a normal woman. I'll do anything for your happiness after we get married. Can you wait for that?"

"certain. Is one hug I don't deserve Barbie, either?" Bernard said, stretching out both hands.

Azharin smiled warmly. He headed towards Bernard. He entered Bernard's warm embrace. Bernard tightened his embrace. Really he felt full of challenges to get Azharin. Just one hug should drain his energy and pockets.

"You terrible woman Barbie," said Bernard still hugging Azharin warmly.

"Why?"

"I have to have extra energy to love you. Hugging you alone should cost me a lot of money" joked Bernard. Azharin laughed.

"Okay Barbie, you can rest, I want to rest too." Azharin stretched her arms. He asked Bernard to bow slightly in front of Azharin. Bernard complies with Azharin's request. Azharin gave a glimpse of Bernard's cheek.

"Good break Big Boss. I'll pick you up later."

Azharin left the hotel. The goal is not to go home to rest. He was sure that brother and Sonia had been waiting with a myriad of questions. Azharin did ask to stay while delivering Bernard to the hotel. He decided to take a taxi after that.

When he was at home, Azharin's guess was correct. Just as he entered was seen Armian and Sonia looked on with a curious look. Azharin laughing. That last laugh that Armian may not have seen for a long time. Azharin sat opposite the two of them.

"Interrogation is ready to begin sir" joked Azharin.

"Is__" said Armian decapitated because Azharin immediately replied.

"I'm still sane sir. I'm not drunk either. I was just drunk in love with that blue-eyed guy."

"Serious move. Do you know who he is?"

Azharin was also finally serious. "I don't just know him. I also know his parents. They even accepted me, without asking my background. They gave everything to their son. I was well received. You two don't worry."

Azharin then told him how he got to Bernard's country. He also tells of Bernard's purpose in coming with him.

"You mean you've been steady with him?"

"I've been steady with him, Bang."

"You know the risk. You're far away from us. You'll be alone in there without family."

"Don't forget Bang, my family is just brother. One with Nia. I'll be fine there. Trust me."

Armian looked at Azharin with a happy feeling, but the other side of his heart he was also grieving. He'll be thousands of miles apart with his sister. Armian's teary eyes held back feelings. Azharin initially strengthened the heart. He did not want to cry in front of his brother, but Azharin failed.

"Don't cry Bang. Trust me, I promise to be happy there. Brother should also be happy with Nia here."

Azharin's tears have been shed. He moved quickly towards his brother. He sat down in front of his brother. His hands hugged his brother's knees.

"I love you very much, brother. Lie if I say I'm not sad away from you. All this time I could always hold back the crying because Brother was there. Soon enough, I'll have to be away from you. I promise I'll let you know once a day. You promised me you'd propose to Nia soon."

Armian rubbed his sister's hair. His gaze grew increasingly faint looking at his sister who was struggling in front of him because her tears spread. Nia had also been crying beside Armian.

"Why not just look for men from our country?" Armian was still trying to shake his sister's feelings.

"We just go Bang. We also don't know if I'm a match. Marriage between two countries is not as easy as getting married here Bang. At least, I have advanced one step with the arrival of that man here."

Armian doesn't want to be selfish. He just wants the happiness of his sister, even though the risks must be far apart.

"Aren't you going to see me for my blessing?" tanya Armian tried to control the situation.

"I don't know Bang. I don't plan on getting married here."

"Why?"

"I just want to start a new life in a happy place. Where I was sincerely accepted. I haven't seen my dad in seven years either. Ever since I turned down the phone call, since then I've never called me again Bang."

"Please wait until Bernard speaks to Brother. I'll take him."

***

Bernard has said the purpose he came for. In fact he had also proposed to Azharin in front of Armian and Sonia. Armian did not ask Bernard much. Armian instead requested that Bernard keep and happy Azharin there later.

If Azharin had not had the courage to tell a lot about his family while at Bernard's parents' house, Armian opened it all up with Bernard. He had to make sure if Bernard could accept Azharin as he was. Armian also knew Azharin as much as possible not to discuss the topic. Azharin only discussed important points at that time to Bernard.

Armian was greatly relieved, when Bernard did not take the slightest issue. To him it was only Azharin's past. Azharin was more relieved, the story did not need him to tell. He was very grateful to his brother who had been wise to be forthright, even without consulting him.

"I don't dare promise you much. I only promise to make her happy. Don't worry much when he's far away" Bernard said with confidence.

"I leave it with you both." Armian could only say that.

"I think you two still want to talk. Me and your brother are better off first" said Sonia understandingly.

"Uhm, my brother-in-law is very understanding. Do not forget to urge your lover to propose immediately. You must lose to my distant lover."

Sonia only glared to hear Azharin comment. They left, and left the restaurant.

"I don't think anything else is a hindrance." Bernard looked fixedly at Azharin.

"still. I wonder if your love is over for Laurren? I don't want it after I've decided to stay away from family, your past becomes a new drama!" Azharin firmly asked for Bernard's honesty.

"He is no longer in my heart. Now and in the future you're my priority." No combing tone no seducing tone heard Azharin, only real seriousness.

"So you're sure?" ask Azharin.

"I'm so sure I'll be with you Barbie. Do you want to provoke my annoyance?"

If Bernard was full of seriousness to ask, not with Azharin in welcoming him. Azharin laughed and teased Bernard.

"Hmmm you're getting different after wearing that Barbie ring." Bernard had proposed to Azharin in front of Armian and Sonia.

Azharin was relieved. He is grateful that everything has gone so far. If it had been Azharin who asked, now Bernard who asked the seriousness of Azharin.

"I want to know now. Are you sure you'll stop working and come with me after marriage?"

"I'm sure." Azharin answered steadily. He had also been weighing up when Bernard decided to seriously join the country of Azharin. Moreover, there had been so many sacrifices Bernard had made to him.

"If so, we'll take care of the papers immediately. It'll take a while to get married between countries."

"I knew. I'll take care of it and you'll be back advised to come here for an interview and more."

"Here my love is tested. I have to share."

"Who?" tanya Azharin was calm.

"Not who the question is with Barbie, but with what."

"Oww, most with your work then," said Azharin understood.

"You understand me" said Bernard gladly."

"certain. I understand enough when you don't give me the news for days."

"Are you not suspicious of me with another woman, for example." Bernard fishing Azharin.

"I don't like to suspect others, until I get my own proof."

Bernard smiled very happily He flanked Azharin's chin. "You're a perfect fit for me Barbie."

Bernard wants to steal Azharin's lip taste. But he broke it. He didn't want Azharin to think he was taking a chance. He did not want to destroy the confidence that had emanated from Azharin's brown eyes.
