The Marriage Order

Prologues

Living as a person or people like to call it by the word "rich man" has been a burden all my life. We can live with gratitude, but this still adds many rules. I was never free to decide what I wanted.

Everything is determined from the beginning. Both my education and my pleasure were determined by both my parents. Fortunately after my graduate graduation, I was allowed to choose a job outside of Papa's company. The only thing I've been grateful for my whole life. They cannot impose my will.

The day passed like never before. I walked out of the office three hours later than usual. The sky began to darken. A red car waiting for me outside. A man was waiting to sit in it. He's my girlfriend, his name is Fandy Raihan Ardhito. I then approached him.

"Darling, sorry I'm late." I got in the car.

"Yes dear," he replied with his sour face.

"Don't pout that dong. There was a deadline" I replied while wearing my seatbelt.

"Yes. We can make coffee first. I'm not in the mood anymore" said Fandy then stepped on the gas of his car.

Fandy's been with me for the last six years. He made me fall in love at first sight. His face was handsome, his eyebrows were thick, his eyes were slightly narrow with black irises, his hair was slightly wavy, his skin was clean and he was tall. Fandy is a hard worker. He always strives and is ambitious to achieve the desired goal.

Along the way Fandy just kept silent not to ask me to talk. Seen from his tense face. As many thought. His eyes focused towards the road and did not speak much. I wondered in my heart what he was really thinking. But I did not dare to speak because his face was unfriendly.

Not long after that we arrived at a cafe. Fandy got out of the car walking quickly leaving me behind. I'm wearing high heels can't catch up with him. With ease I walk leisurely.

"It's so bad for him," I grumbled.

Fandy stopped. He looked back and turned around to grab my hand and hold me. Then shook his head.

"You are so long the way!"

I didn't return his words. My head was down looking at the path.

"Hey don't you see if I wear high heels? It sucks, but today is a reminder of our six-year relationship. Just ruin the mood."

We sat at a table around the cafe. The atmosphere was quite crowded that night. This cafe is our favorite place. A waitress approached us. He asked for our order.

"What do you want to order?" Fandy asked

"I'm Ice americano" I replied.

"I'm a coffee latte."

"Aren't the food, sir?" ask the waiter.

"In the meantime."

The female servant nodded then passed away leaving us. Fandy looked seriously into my eyes.

"How was it at the office?" Fandy opened the conversation.

"As usual ... although there is actually a deadline and so late return."

Fandy nodded his head. His eyes looked back at me.

"Sheryl, I want an important talk." Fandy opened the conversation.

"Speak" I replied.

Not long after that the maid came with our order. He interrupted the moment of conversation we had just started.

"Thank you, Ma'am" said Fandy.

I sipped that iced coffee. My dry throat instantly disappeared in an instant.

"All right, I have something to say, Sher." Fandy looked back at me.

"She just talk, baby. I have something to ask you, too" I said.

Fandy this time I'm really going to ask about the seriousness of this relationship. I'm tired of this dating status. I need certainty.

Fandy took a deep breath then said, "I am entrusted to control a branch company in Japan for an undetermined time. This is really good news, isn't it? My career will definitely grow. I will also be looking for a scholarship for my next education. You must be proud to have a boyfriend like me."

"Then our relationship?" my many.

"Look at this, we had a long distance relationship first. I'll definitely go home and marry you." Fandy sipped his iced coffee.

"Just now I want to ask you about your seriousness about our relationship and I already know the answer" I said trying to calm down.

"What do you mean?" Fandy looked at my face confused.

I sighed again trying to hold back the emotion, "Now we just break up. I don't think I'm on your agenda at all anytime soon. I'm tired."

I immediately opened the bag I was carrying and handed a small gift of our anniversary to him.

"This is for you .... Happy anniversary. We shouldn't have to see you again in the future. Enough's enough! I'm going home!" I rushed my foot out of the cafe without seeing Fandy's facial expression.

With quick steps I got out of the cafe. Tears began to drip I could no longer hold. I cry in silence. I hope he comes after me and apologizes to me. But it's only in my mind. No one is chasing me.

I walked out calling a taxi right on the side of the highway.

"Sheril!" A man's voice called my name.

I looked back and saw a man wearing a navy blue suit with a white shirt inside. His stature is tall and sturdy and athletic. His face was handsome with a brownish white skin color. She is Baruna Adrian Asyraf my brother's best friend and the man I've been betrothed to. His age who was the same age as my brother made me call him Kak Baruna.

The taxi that had just stopped in front of me was immediately ordered to pass. Baruna looked at me in wonder. I hurriedly wiped my tears.

"What are you doing here?" tannya

"There is business, brother. But it's done."

"Why are you crying? Let me drive you home. It's not good for a girl to be alone these nights." Baruna's sister pulled my hand. I had to walk after him.

I got into a sports car owned by Kak Baruna. Silence without words. Baruna did not ask much. He immediately stepped on the gas pedal.

A phone came into my phone. Fandy's name is on the screen. I don't want to talk to him. I think that's enough. This is my firmness for him who is tired because all this time always follow his wishes. Never want to know what I want.

Baruna glanced at my phone screen and asked, "Why don't you pick up the phone? Have pity who knows it's important."

I had a sour face right then and there. I was so lazy to pick up the phone from someone who ignored me.

"Yes - yes - yes okay I understand. I won't comment much." Brother Baruna raised his hand to understand the look of my sour face.

"I just broke up, brother." A sentence just slid from my mouth.

"Your old boyfriend?"

"Yes Brother."

"Why?"

"Small," I replied.

"Here if you're tired, you can lean on my shoulder. But then, yes, I'm driving. Haha." Brother Baruna chuckled.

"Hw .... Brother took a chance in narrowness," I protested.

Baruna smiled and said, "Sher even though we were betrothed from four years ago, I don't want you to cry because of your boyfriend in front of me. But since you've broken up, it looks like it'll be a chance for me."

"Start taking a chance. Why don't you go out with other girls anyway? Physically okay, financially especially. There must be a lot of girls who want to be the same brother," I replied.

"If I could've done it a long time ago."

I was silent not to reply to his words. I knew this would definitely lead to the outpouring of his heart that had long pursued my love.

"I'm sorry if my words bother you" said Kak Baruna.

I nodded in triumph at his words. I really haven't been able to digest any information other than my mind being filled with Fandy.
