The Love Story of Aina

53. First Date

"Where are we going?" aina asked after they were already in the car.

"It's up to you, you know this area" said Riyan, driving slowly.

Aina seemed to think, she tapped her chin with her index finger. Riyan turned towards her then smiled looking at Aina like that. Funny, thought.

"Find a cool place. In Kuningan area, mas. We are refreshing our minds" said Aina.

"Maybe, it's also interesting" said Riyan.

"Later we'll look in the map gugel aja, mas." said Aina again.

"Every princess" Aina turned her head towards Riyan and smiled shyly.

"Why?"

"Neverything."

An hour's drive to Kuningan, they reach the destination. Riyan parked his car in the parking lot, then they got off and headed to the entrance payment. Although a natural tourist spot, but still pay money to enter the tourist attractions.

"Have you been here?"

"Not yet, but he said the place was good. It's good for people to date" Aina said involuntarily. Riyan turned his head, he looked at Aina who was staring around looking for something.

"So we're dating again?" ask Riyan.

"Huh?"

"Yes, let's find a comfortable place to date" said Riyan.

Aina was getting confused, the long she thought. Then suddenly smiled to himself. Riyan smiled as well, worried as he thought. In addition to the work problem, Aina was so slow to respond, making Riyan so anxious for her.

Then they go to a cafe that looks suitable to enjoy a comfortable place for nature lovers. After they get a seat, they order lunch because the time is already showing at half-time.

After they enjoy lunch, they take a walk around the cafe place, because the view from the cafe is also very good. They sat on a bench that happened to be facing towards the soothing expanse of rice fields. The manager of this cafe is very smart to pamper its visitors, to continue to linger enjoying the atmosphere of the open nature.

Visitors should never be quiet and always crowded. After the two sat down, they fell silent for a moment. Then Aina asked about the unek-unties who had been in her dorm since last night.

"Mas Riyan doesn't want a story?" asked Aina who had been waiting for Riyan.

"Can't I kiss you?" said Riyan looking at Aina lovingly without heeding Aina's question. Aina slightly moved away her seat heard the ngaco speech in her opinion.

"Huhah! You're funny Ai. I want to get your wedding spit." Riyan laughed off seeing Aina's behavior just now.

She was happy to tease Aina. Aina pouted, she was annoyed. Riyan was still flirting when she was curious and seriously asked about Riyan's story.

"Mas Riyan don't joke around, don't be funny!" still frowning mode.

"Who's joking, I really want your marriage. If you need it next week. How's it?"

"Mas Riyan!"

"Deal next week?"

"Gee!"

"It means deal."

"Well, who's the deal? I was still curious from last night, why did Riyan suddenly come and propose to me immediately" said Aina looking down embarrassed.

"So don't want to be in Lamar?" riyan asked still teasing Aina.

"Yes, no, he meant why he could suddenly propose to me, he meant. Ish, why is Riyan upsetting me!" aina's annoyance was peaking, her dead red face was clearly holding back the emotions.

Aina was silent, she threw her face aside. His regret for Riyan who always joked when he wanted to talk seriously.

"Because I love you. I'm afraid you're hunting people. Hence yesterday directly proposed to you." said Riyan looking at Aina who is still Aina silent and has not turned her head towards him.

Aina lowered her head, suddenly blushing in shame at Riyan's words, Aina's cheeks flushed red. He turned towards Riyan who was too close to him. And of course, it made Riyan quickly kiss Aina's cheeks that were still flushed..

Cup.

Aina grew even more surprised, her flushed cheeks getting reddened as Riyan kissed her cheeks all of a sudden. Riyan sniffled, she stroked that scolding cheek.

"You're beautiful if you're red cheeks, Aina" said Riyan still staring at Aina.

The two stared at each other, but Aina cut her gaze on Riyan as her heartbeat grew weaker. Riyan's gaze was so deep in his heart, that Aina became misbehaved.

"Keep, why suddenly the night is home. He said the time on the phone was busy, when he had time to come home." asked Aina did not dare to look at Riyan again.

"And I told you, I'm afraid you're taken. The proof is that when I got to your house, there was already your friend. Meet your father anyway. I'm so nervous to see your friend talking to your father. It felt like my world was collapsing." said Riyan, his eyes glaring deep toward the expanse of rice fields.

"Then it got like that?" aina said curiously.

Riyan let out a long sigh, he seemed to think. If she told him the past, was Aina not jealous. He looked back at Aina's face carefully.

"I used to love a girl. Since I had been expressing love for too long with her, she had already been with someone else. I'm disappointed in myself, why don't I immediately express love to her." Riyan took a deep breath and then looked down.

Aina was still waiting for her next story. There was jealousy in Aina's heart, but she kept quiet. Withdrawing a heavy breath, only one day did his heart hurt a little with the story of Riyan. Does Riyan still love the girl he told me about?

"When I called you yesterday afternoon, and heard your friend wanted to come home, I hurried straight to Cirebon. Though it was waiting for a client, but I canceled, let my assistant meet him. I don't want it to happen again. But it turns out I was late, your friend came first. I was immediately pessimistic. Plus you're talking to him alone, I'm getting less confident. My disappointment will be repeated again, and it will be deeper in his pain." said Riyan sadly.

"I spoke to Anto so as not to continue his intention. I didn't like him and explained why I didn't. Something past that's not finished with Anto. That's why I took him out to finish." Aina sighed, she looked at Riyan waiting for a reaction from the man. But Riyan was silent.

"He used to be my best friend in High School, but because of the incitement of others, he broke our friendship. Until graduation there was no communication. When I met in Jakarta I was surprised, it was my first meeting with him after he decided on friendship. But he instead asked Vishnu sir to have lunch together. Yes how else, sir Vishnu immediately left me. He was sorry at the time, I also forgave him" said Aina.

"But you've been seeing him a lot, to his office again" said Riyan, pretending to be upset.

"Eh, at that time I was told by Vishnu directly to submit the file. I told the courier to hand it over. But do not know why suddenly Mr. Vishnu said I had to give up myself. I'm actually lazy to meet Anto." Aina reasoned.

"But I met you too, went back to the office with her." said Riyan.

Aina looked at Riyan, she was confused by the attitude of Riyan just now. Then he smiled, then suddenly wanted to prank Riyan.

"Mas Riyan is jealous?"

"Who, look at you laughing happily with her, I'm jealous.", unknowingly Riyan uttered her jealousy.

"Thank you, Riyan, I've been paying attention to you. I was jealous too. So the more love is with Riyan" said Aina smiling shyly, Riyan smiled.

"But I don't like Anto, I think it's not good to be vengeful and still disappointed with her. He used to be my best friend, though. I always thought of her before she broke off a friendship. But he said last night he liked me, which is weird. I can't be. I explained to him that I was disappointed in him, and until now could not be lost. Maybe because I was too often disappointed, so I always never believed the same person who suddenly liked, suddenly close to me. I'm afraid they'll disappoint me." Aina looked down, she was silent. Breathe in slowly.

Riyan pulled Aina's hand and held it tightly. Then looked at Aina's lowered face, then she pulled Aina's chin to look at her as well.

"I'm sorry, I made you remember the past that made you dislike. I won't let you down, I really love you, Ai. Next week my mom will meet your dad and I'm asking to marry you soon" said Riyan, pulling Aina's body into his arms.

Once again Aina did not refuse, she was already comfortable with Riyan. He also loved that man. The two stared towards the yellowed expanse of rice fields.

"I love you, Aina Saraswati." Said Riyan with confidence, and she was sure that Aina also loved him even though it had not been spoken. The day was getting late, they took a walk while enjoying the natural beauty of the mountains until the two decided to go home.
