The eyes of the two of them looked at each other in the air. Nicholas' gaze was so deep, that it made Leira's heart go unnoticed.
"Thankfully yes, the man who got your love, Ra" said Nicholas in a voice that shook with the pain in his heart.
"It's not just him, I'm lucky" Leira answered, making Nicholas' heart ache.
How you, Ra. Though I had hoped to be able to get your love, Inner Nicholas.
Nicholas why? It seemed, she was saddened by this engagement party, Inner Leira.
"Sister Leira, called Aunt Mila tuh. He said he told me to try it on a party dress." Elena came to break the awkwardness between the two.
"Nichol, I stayed for a while" said Leira who suddenly became nervous.
Nicholas only answered with a nod of his head. He was too lazy, to just open his mouth to agree with Leira's words.
"Why, Brother? How, sad?" elena asked astonished to see Nicholas moping.
"Leira, soon to be engaged, Len." replied Nicholas with a face in the bend.
"Yes, three more days." said Elena innocently.
Elena still did not know about the sadness that Nicholas was feeling at the moment.
"That means, the hope of married sister Leira is destroyed already" said Nicholas while squeezing his hair.
Instead of feeling sympathetic, Elena laughed when she heard Nicholas say.
"Len, please, don't make Brother angry!" nicholas protests as Elena's laughter grows louder.
"Oh, my stomach hurts. Ha-ha-ha!" elena said as she held onto the part of her stomach that felt cramping because she continued to laugh nonstop.
"Stop, Len! Don't be kidding!" Nicholas started getting emotional because Elena didn't stop laughing at him.
Elena shut her mouth so that her laughing voice would not come out again, and increasingly made Nicholas become enraged by it.
"I'm sorry, brother! But this is so funny!" replied Elena who was still holding onto her stomach with one hand.
"Ckk, you must be laughing at Brother's misfortune, right?" nicholas said as he glanced at his brother.
Instead of stopping, Elena even more laughing because she saw the expression of Nicholas who she thought was getting funny.
Nicholas growled furiously at Elena's behavior, which did not care about her current feelings.
Nicholas gets up, and intends to leave Elena there alone.
"Sister, wait a minute!" call Elena while she pulls Nicholas' hand.
"What's? Still not satisfied, laughing?" nicholas said in a high tone.
"Listen to me first, brother! Don't go!"
By having to, Nicholas' obeyed Elena's words. He sat back in his place.
"Open!" Elena offered an invitation card, which Nicholas immediately knew was Leira's engagement card.
"No way!" Nicholas brushed Elena's hand to the side.
"If you don't obey me, I guarantee you, you will regret it." Elena threatened who immediately made Nicholas take the invitation card from him.
Not for reading, but just on the table.
"Come, open!" elena insisted.
Nicholas' hand shook to regain the invitation card he had saved.
To be honest, Nicholas' heart still did not feel ready to know the contents written on the invitation card.
Beep it! Beep it! Beep it!
Not yet had he opened the invitation, his phone had vibrated the sign there was an incoming call.
"Yes, Sergeant. What's up?" nicholas asked his men across the phone.
Nicholas was confused by the words of the men. Therefore, Nicholas dared to ask again to Sergeant Agus.
After the phone call was cut off, Nicholas focused on the invitation card in his hand.
Slowly, and with increasingly shaky hands, Nicholas opened the plastic wrapping of the invitation card.
Nicholas' hand trembled even more as he finished reading the writing on the invitation paper.
Nicholas Mahendra's? isn't that my name? And Leira, it turns out that she's going to have an engagement with me in three days? inner Nicholas.
I don't know what Nicholas is feeling right now, sad? happy ones? or moved? Nicholas can't express all his feelings.
"Hows it? Is Big Brother leaving, now?" elena taunts Nicholas who is currently still stunned while holding her own engagement card.
"What are you doing? How, at a dumbass like that?" leira asked who had returned from trying on her party dress.
Nicholas hid the invitation card behind his body. He was too embarrassed to be caught by Leira.
"It's okay, Ra! We're just having a casual conversation, aren't we?" nicholas said as he forced Elena's body to be beside him.
"Aww!" Elena cried out in pain as Nicholas pinched her waist violently.
"What's wrong with you, Len?" ask Leira astonished.
"Eh, I ...,"
"Elena mah-lebay, Ra! He likes acting too much!" nicholas said as his hands clung back to Elena's waist.
Inevitably, Elena agreed with Nicholas because she did not want her waist to get another hard pinch from the Brother.
"Sister Nichol taught me to act, brother!" elena said as she glanced at Nicholas.
"Acting? Since when, you've been learning acting, Len?" leira asked in amazement.
As Leira recalls, Elena does love various types of films. But for acting, Leira had never heard Elena mention about it.
Just this time, it was shocking.
"Ah, I forgot! Mamah had me accompany Aunt Mila fruit shopping to the mini market across the house" said Elena while throwing Nicholas' hand still attached to her waist.
"Elena, why? How strange!" leira said slowly as she walked closer towards Nicholas.
Approached by the woman he loves the most, making Nicholas become misbehaved.
"How's the dress, Ra? What load?" nicholas asked trying to drive away the awkwardness between them.
Leira nodded, then sat down on the chair next to Nicholas.
"Leira ...," call Nicholas slowly.
"Why? Still want to be angry, with that problem?" leira said with a gentle smile that adorned her face.
"No, not that." Nicholas panicked for a moment.
"Then?!"
"I. .. want to apologize!" the words of Nicholas that suddenly made Leira stunned by surprise.
"I'm sorry for what? You'll never make a mistake with me!"
Nicholas was eager to pinch Leira's cheek because it looked so adorable. But he held it, because now is not the time for Nicholas to do things that are out of bounds.
Later, if they are officially married. Nicholas will do it. In fact, it could be more than just pinching the cheek, Nicholas thought.
"I'm sorry, because I've come to understand you, Ra. I thought you were getting engaged to someone else. Turns out ...,"
Nicholas did not continue his words. He was too embarrassed to say all these things, in front of him Leira.
