The Princess Mayor

2. A match for Leira.

Leira is still confused by his decision, wanting to offer help or just let it go. After he weighed up the decision, he finally chose to offer Alex a place to rest, since it was getting darker because it was not possible for him to find lodging with a fast time.

Alex accepted it with a very happy heart because he could have a chance to get to know Leira better.

"Bi, please deliver Alex's car to the guest room." Leira said to Bi Nenah.

"Well Non ...," replied Bi Nenah then invite Alex to follow him. "please pass here den..," he said.

"Yes Bi ..," Alex followed.

After the departure of Alex and Bi Nenah, Leira got up and walked to her room, after which she went to the bathroom first to clean up, then lay down on her bed. There, Leira's mind glared at the chat she had with her Tantenya on the phone earlier.

"How's Ra? It was your mother's will while she was still around, she already did this matchmaking while you were still in the womb. Because he no longer exists in this world, so Aunt will continue her will. Aunty will also go to Jakarta to meet with your future in-laws and husband there. See you next time Yes ... Ara baby!" Such are the words spoken by his Tantenya Leira who mentioned if he had been betrothed by his mother with the son of his acquaintance.

Leira took a deep breath, she had just lost both her parents, now faced with the burden of her matchmaking. He also tried to eliminate all grievances in his heart by listening to relaxation music until he fell asleep until the next day.

                   

...----------------...

"Morning ..," Alex said to Leira, who was sitting on the back yard bench.

"Morning also ..," he answered with a gentle smile towards Alex.

"Again what?" Ask Alex to her. "Obviously, I'm breathing morning air." Reply to Leira again.

"Don't tell me the morning air is fresh and pollution-free." Chirps Alex.

"He-he ... Aye!" Answer's short.

"Oh, yes! Actually, I was just about to say goodbye. But Bi Nenah said that we are here again, so yes already .. I'm here to follow." Obviously Alex.

"Oh, so."

"Yes Miss Leira ... H-he!" Alex Kanda.

"He-he ..," Leira only chuckles in response to a joke from Alex.

"His mother had breakfast?" Ask.

"ppffttt ... Ha-ha!" Alex laughed at Leira's question.

"Rohhh ... Why are you laughing?" Leira said in wonder.

"Part of you, it's like that. My name is Alex not the mas." Alex's light on the reason laughed at Leira's question.

"Yes ... That's what I mean." Leira's pretext to him.

"Not yet, I haven't had breakfast Miss ... Ha-ha!" Alex said as he turned Leira's call to him.

"Ha-ha-ha!" Leira also laughed because of Alex's jokes. While Bi Nenah was watching them from behind the window, so she felt happy to see her young Miss had started to laugh.

Of course Alex who heard his invitation so sparkling happy, he could not refuse the invitation of women in his tribe. Yes ... Although this was his first meeting, but somehow Alex already felt a match for Leira.

since it was time for breakfast, the two of them went to the dining room. There, there is already a menu prepared by Bi Nenah before, there is nasi uduk, omelet, bakwan, tempe orek and also lalapan, all the menus are prepared is a local breakfast menu. Bi Nenah is indeed the champion if you have dealt with the problem of cooking, about the taste in guaranteed steady pisan.

After finishing breakfast, Alex said goodbye. "Thank you, for everything. Sorry if I become troublesome, already fed, drank, continue to be allowed to spend the night anyway." He told Leira.

"He-he ... No trouble at all, it's Bi." Leira replied while looking towards Bi Nenah.

"Yes, even Aunty's so cool." Add Bi Nenah. "Cock Bi's smile?" Alex asked astonished at Bi Nenah's reply.

"Yes ... Cockroaches! Non Ara so there's a meeting." Babe Bi Nenah made Ara blush.

"Ohh, that's ...," Alex just understood the meaning of the words from Bi Nenah. "Kirain, Aunt has a crush on me ... Haha!"

"Aduhhhh the aden how can talk like that, if Bibi has a crush or yes time does not remember age, den-aden ... Hi-hi!" Reply Bi Nenah while giggling amusedly responding to Alex's joke, Leira also laughed at the behavior of the two of them.

"Yes! Aye! Sorry Deh Bi ..," said Alex again as he walked to the yard followed by Leira and Bi Nenah who drove him while waiting for a pickup car.

"Mayhhh ... The car is coming." Alex exclaimed when he saw his order taxi had arrived in front of the gate. "I say yes ... Leira, Bi Nenah." Pamphitt.

"Yes ... Thanks for coming, say hello to Aunt Jessica and Om at home."

"Yes! I must have told you, Mama must be happy to hear that." Said Alex again while opening the back door of the taxi. "Well, I'm going!"

"Bye-Bye ..," she cried as she waved at the taxi window, which was waved back by Leira and Bi Nenah.

After the taxi turned in the T-junction and was no longer visible from sight, Leira and Bi Nenah walked back into the courtyard of the house.

"Money!" Call Bi Nenah. "Yes Bi ..," Liera replied.

"Den Alex is funny, yeah." Said Bi Nenah.

"Funny how Bi?" Ask Liera flat.

"It's funny that Non. His clothes are cool, his face is handsome, but he's not arrogant." Bi Nenah.

"Leira knows what Auntie means." Said Leira while nodding. "Auntie says that because Alex likes to joke, right? Not like his supposedly calm appearance ... Aye right?"

"Yes, that's what Aunt Non means ... Hi-hi."  Said Bi Nenah while giggling amusedly.

Leira just shook her head to see Bi Nenah's behavior, she did not feel angry or upset with every word and treatment. He already considered Bi Nenah like his own family.

When she was inside the house, Leira walked closer to the bookshelf that she had neglected for a few days, the book that continued to accompany her to spend long days. Because of his love, Leira even has some types of Novels that are carried specifically by his father when returning from work from out of town. The father knew his daughter's favorite collection of books from the latest and old Novel series, from the Romance, Fantasy, even Horror Comedy genre Leira had. Therefore, his father made Leira a special rack to accommodate all his book collection.

Given that, Leira could not hold back the tears on her eyelids, the longing for her parents became deeper when she saw her belongings given by her parents.

"Dad, Mother ... Ara kangen." He spoke slowly while shedding tears that were already unstoppable in number.
