Edgar's fingers were still on Arumi's pretty face at the time. He continues to try to convince Arumi about the difficult situation he is facing right now.
He kissed the girl's forehead gently. Not to forget, he stroked Arumi's long hair feelingly. Edgar then slightly lowered his body to see the face of Arumi who was still sulking to him. The man smiled. A warm smile and felt so friendly.
"Don't be mad at me!" Pinta Edgar slowly. He touched Arumi's chin and lifted slowly. Edgar knew that Arumi would be at ease with a kiss. At least that's what he used to do when they were together, a few years ago.
Arumi was only speechless when Edgar touched her lips. He didn't give any response. It seemed, the girl was really mad at him.
"Arum ..." said Edgar softly, "listen, darling!" Continue the man without removing his hand from Arumi's pretty face.
"I want to stay close to you. However, the situation that is happening to my company right now is not good. I can't stay still, because if I let it drag on. I can't let that happen. I don't want to disappoint my late adoptive father" Edgar explained in a very soft tone.
"I hope you can understand that ... or if you want .. come with me to France. So, we can always be together" Edgar said.
Arumi immediately raised her face. He seemed to want to protest at the invitation of a man who had no idea what status he was currently in.
"Whatchu mean? Does that mean you're not going back to Indonesia?" Arumi's question was suffused with a face full of unrest.
"No, it's not that! I'm definitely back here, but not anytime soon. I must really regret this matter to the fullest. Please understand!" Once again Edgar asked Arumi to be able to understand the difficult situation he was facing at this time.
Arumi did not answer. The girl turned her back and turned her back to Edgar. His attitude is really spoiled. It was something very strange, because Arumi had never been so spoiled in front of Moedya. However, in front of Edgar, he often showed his child side. Is it all because of the sweet attitude that Edgar always showed all this time? Yes, Edgar always wanted to spoil Arumi.
Edgar then held Arumi's arm and turned the girl's body to face him. "What if I buy you some ice cream?" Woo the man with a seductive smile.
"I'm not a kid!" Reject Arumi with a brush.
"Yes, of course you're not a child. However, take a look at your attitude, Arum! You look more spoiled compared to Dinan," Edgar said lightly.
Arumi was silent again. He glanced at his ready suitcase. Without saying anything more, he immediately grabbed the handle of the suitcase and dragged it out of the pavilion.
"Oh ... God. Give me some more patience!" Edgar murmured with a bit of complaining. He follows Arumi out and chases after the girl who is now walking quite quickly. "Arum, wait!" Edgar cried with a voice that was not too loud.
Arumi turned his head for a moment, but he resumed his steps quickly. He seemed to want to escape from Edgar, and unfortunately at that time Edgar's steps had to stop because Keanu invited him to speak again. They went back to discussing the matter of stone throwing, which happened overnight in the pavilion room occupied by Arumi.
While Arumi had arrived at the parking lot. An officer has prepared the car. Arumi had also stuffed her coffee into the trunk. Just as he closed the trunk door of his car, there was the sound of a greeting from a man who was addressed to him. Arumi looked at me.
Ben, the tattooed man had been standing there, not far from Arumi. With a smile on his face that looked very firm, the big-haired man walked over to Arumi who was still standing near his car.
"Wanna go home, Miss Arumi?" Treat it kindly.
"You drive yourself, Miss?" Ask Ben again. He was getting closer to Arumi so now their distance is only about a few steps.
"I'm used to driving by myself" replied Arumi. He began to be uncomfortable with the man's clingy gaze that felt like he was intimidating her. Arumi chose to avoid that gaze.
"Where's your girlfriend?" Ask Ben again.
"Ed?" Arumi was a little nervous. But soon he could control the situation. "Um .. He still has business inside. Yesterday we left separately, so now ...."
"That sounds very strange. A couple went on vacation but set out on their own," Ben smiled wryly as he muttered softly. "Ah .. sorry, forget about my stupid words just now!" Ben again showed a strange smile to Arumi. A smile that looks so much different from a smile that Edgar always shows.
Arumi was even more uncomfortable because of it. Fortunately, Arumi was wearing her sunglasses, so Ben could not see the discomfort that emerged from the look of the girl's eyes. There was no other choice for Arumi other than to leave immediately in the presence of the man.
“I’m sorry, Ben .. but I have to go,” Arumi said with a slightly forced smile.
“Of course, Arumi! I'll be back in France tomorrow. I've been here too long. As you said ‘the holiday is over’. Time to come back to reality,” Ben again showed his smile.
Arumi laughed softly. ”Yes, have a nice trip,” said the girl rather clumsyly.
"Maybe sometime you should include France as your holiday destination. Don't forget to visit the port city of Marseille. Stop by my humble seafood shop!” Said Ben who looked very relaxed with his shorts.
Hearing Marseille's words, Arumi's countenance changed instantly. He then nodded slowly. “I will definitely come to Marseille, because the graves of my parents are also there,” suddenly Arumi became interested in responding to that conversation.
Ben's smile became clearer. “Wow .. it was a very unexpected coincidence. I will definitely be waiting for you at my shop. We have a bouillabaisse menu that is very tasty and must be tried,”, Ben said again. He wants to bring Arumi into a conversation that is getting further away.
Arumi plays her car keys and laughs softly. “My sister will definitely like it a lot. He really misses the special cuisine of our father's hometown. Hard to find traditional food with original taste from his own hometown,” reply Arumi. It would have been late in the conversation, had Edgar not appeared there immediately. “Babe ...” call him slowly.
Arumi immediately looked over. However, he still felt annoyed at the man. Even so, Arumi did not want to show it in front of Ben, especially when Edgar immediately embraced his waist with a friendly.
“You again?” Edgar's tone sounded unfriendly to Ben. Ben just smiled.
“Yes, we accidentally met again here. Maybe you should never leave this beautiful woman alone," the words that sounded increasingly irritated Edgar. As much as possible Edgar should be able to control his frustration, although in his heart he was eager to slam the man before him.
However, the annoyance grew when Ben turned his gaze to Arumi and said with a very friendly smile, "Enchantee ...."
