The Matchmaker Competition

CHAPTER 11

POV Dira's

What is that soul mate like? What is it like snow falling cools the heart? What is like a fire that comes burning all the flavors? or maybe like the wind just passing by? I don't think so for everyone. If such a cold snow will be temporary and then melt into flowing water and then disappear. If it is like a fire there will definitely be a spark that will be extinguished if given water. If a soul mate is like the wind, he will blow anywhere aimlessly and just disappear.

I felt squeezed between the freezing snow and melted when given fire and the dust flew in the wind and disappeared without a trace. When asking me to find a partner because Vira wants to get married. I think the one who was frozen turned to heat. How not? Who wants to marry who? Who is looking for whose partner? I never bothered that Vira would step up. I also did not ask for the step of Satria or Vira.

But why did your attitude seem to subvert me.

"Already, Dira. Just say mom. It's for your good." Sahut Kak Feri who nongol in front of my room door.

"But, brother. I'm not getting married yet."

"Mama loves you. He doesn't want you to be inferior to Vira."

"Well, I don't feel inferior." My solute.

"Dira, Mama just wants you to have a partner because your age is not young anymore. Maybe at times we can call God."

Mama's talk is mellow, sih. I love my mom, that's for sure! Don't make me look for a partner in an emergency. Slow down, let it all just flow. Not that something forced is not good for the future.

"Ma, Dira also loves Mama. Dira wants a healthy mom always until Feri gets a new wife, until Dira gets married later, until Vira and Satria also get married and have a new wife. We only have mama now, me, Sis Feri and Vira will never leave. If we were all married then who would accompany Mama? Where most wives follow their husbands wherever they go.

And now my mom asks me to get married as soon as possible. Finding the right partner is not easy, ma.

"Ma, Dira is still 25 years old. Dira also just finished S2 two years. Surely Dira enjoyed the singles period as well as possible. A time that Dira had never felt during college. Dira wants to work first according to the knowledge I got during college.

I tried to make up my words so as not to offend my mother. Mama struggled alone to raise a company that almost went bankrupt because of papa. My father, who was supposed to be a protector for his children, became a scary monster for all of us. Papa, who should have loved his family, even became a field of hatred for his children.

"I think you'll get married now or later, son. If someone approaches us, it means a signal for you to get married soon. For God has written in the message of your destiny, son. And I'm sure this Rian can be your good partner."

"Ma, Dira has just met Rian. How is mom so sure the same guy who just came."

God, how can I explain to my mother that today's fast marriage is not the right solution. How can I ask Rian to get married, even though we just got to know each other.

I want to sleep well tonight, but I failed. My mind was filled with mother's requests to find a partner before Vira got married. And mama asked to be met with Rian. Crazy one?

I threw my body on the bed. My eyes were focused on the door that connected to the balcony. From behind the window of the room a shadowy figure stood as if peering into my room. Who else if not Juna's sister.

Lately I feel like he's starting to get along with my life. Especially when I started getting close to Rian, he always appeared like a security guard who was on standby to take care of me. But since childhood, Juna has always been a security guard for me.

From my brother Feri and my sister, Vira, I was different myself. My brother and sister are white while I'm mature. Many say I even decreased papa's face. My brother and sister looked like white faces.

Every time I'm in the bully friends because my skin is different from both, brother Juna and Ayu always appear as heroes. They are always there every time I feel cornered. They have always been my defenders.

Until when I was in High School, my skin was not as black as when I was a child and the bullying was reduced. But whenever I get close I always turn to Delia. Surely when someone approached Delia, Kak Juna would be a security guard for Delia.

"Eh, I'm sorry this aunt made my mother's cooking. Marrow slurry." Rian gives up a box of Tupperware places to eat to Mama Dewi.

"Well, you're bothered to take this. Tell your mother, thank you. From the smell it's like this good." Mama Dewi went inside leaving Dira and Rian.

"Hmmm. tumben early in the morning you're nongol." Dira direct to the point.

"Oh, I don't have a problem." Dira only returned a small smile in front of Rian.

"Aren't you busy?" Ask Rian.

"I don't think so."

"You want me to walk while I'm looking for breakfast"

But I'm still full mama cooked bakwan." Elak Dira's.

"Dira!"

"Sister Juna?"

"Yes, my laptop is real. You come with me so you can check for yourself."

"Titip same with mom. I want to go with Rian." Elak Dira's.

Juna just stared at the back of Dira who had walked away from him. The heavy breathing sounded slow. His hands clenched hard as if holding back an outpouring of emotions.

Juna felt that since the incident of eating ramen at that time, Dira often avoided him.

Do you have the same feelings as me, Dira?

If not, why do you keep avoiding me?

Are you usually not gini?
