THE SACRED LOVE OF MENTARI

SMOOTHED

"Laura really, I have to solve my problem with Adam's mas immediately, I have to confirm with Adam that our relationship has ended and ask him not to see me again." Dance monologues with herself while pacing around in her room.

By late afternoon, Laura was home, while her father had still not returned from pulling the angkot.

Lips Dance may say that their relationship has ended, but her heart feels hard to accept, chest tightness Dance releases the man she loves only because of social status, because of social status, especially when Dance pulled the ring pinned by Adam in her sweet day, the ring was so difficult to remove as if it was a ring in the destined circle in her sweet day.

Dance took off the ring coupled with the roar of tears that suddenly fell like rain, I swear Dance is not willing to remove the ring from her finger, but she must.

"I'm sorry Adam, but maybe it's best for us, I hope you'll meet the woman your family wants you to be." he muttered that ring in a red velvet box.

Dance wiped her tears, and typed a message for Adam.

Dance: Adam, I want to meet you, Mas, at the park where we first met.

It only took 4 seconds for Adam's reply to get on his phone.

Adam: Yes, dear, I intend to meet you, I will pick you up.

Dance: No need to mas, Dance to go alone.

Adam : Okay, tell the angkot brothers carefully, baby, I don't want my future wife to go to any lengths.

Dance did not reply, the Heart of Dance grew increasingly claustrophobic imagining that this might be their last meeting.

"You strong Dance, everything will be fine, lest you be weak and cry in front of Adam." Dance tries to strengthen herself.

Dari took her bag and put the ring box in her bag, after wiping her tears dry, she stepped out of her house to meet Adam.

****

At this time Adam was driving, his destination was the house of Dance, but on the way, Tari sent a message and asked him to meet in the park, he said,

Adam smiled as he read the message sent by Tari, he did not expect that in the end Tari invited him to meet.

Adam stopped his car at the flower shop to buy flowers for the lover, and after getting what he wanted, he drove back to his destination, he really can't wait to meet with Tari, therefore, he drove his car at high speed so that he quickly got to the destination.

"Dance, I miss you baby." she said.

Upon arrival at the place where they first met, Adam circled his eyes to look for the existence of Dance, but it seems like Dance has not come so Adam chose to sit in a long chair facing the direction of the artificial lake.

Adam promises to try to convince Tari not to end their relationship, Adam actually loves Dari and can not let Dance just end their relationship.

****

From a few meters away, Tari could see the back of Adam sitting behind her, Dance immediately stopped her footsteps, Tari's heart rumbled, it felt like she was not ready to meet Adam, but she had to. After strengthening her heart, Tari walked back to Adam.

"Mas Adam." call him in a soft voice.

The owner of the name immediately turned his head when he heard his name being called by the woman he had been waiting for. As soon as Adam turned towards her, Dari could see a wide smile and a glow of longing from Adam's eyes.

"Tariiii." cried Adam excited, he immediately stood up from his seat and ran over to Tari.

Once near Tari, Adam immediately embraced Tari to channel the longing and sadness that mingled into one heart.

Dance did not refuse, she even wrapped her arms around Adam's waist, she said, he who from home tried to strengthen his heart and tried to memorize the words that he would say to Adam to actually end their relationship, he now sobbed soundlessly in the arms of the lover, she said, more precisely maybe ex-lovers because Tari has severed their relationship unilaterally.

"I miss you dear, do not try to dare to leave me." said Adam.

"I'm sorry Adam, our relationship has to end." sighed Tari in heart.

Adam breaks his arms, sees the lover he loves so much crying, "Hey, why are you crying dear."

Tari shook her head, "I'm fine mas." he said in the mouth, when clearly he was okay.

Adam cupped Dance's face and with his thumb he wiped Tari's tears away, he then brought his lips closer to kissing the forehead of the lover he loved so much.

Dance closed her eyes feeling Adam's warm lips pressed against her.

"I love you and will marry you" Adam said in a whispering voice.

Dance opened her eyes that immediately met with Adam's sad eyes.

"I love you too, Adam." almost without a sound.

Adam drew his forehead closer to the Dance, for a moment the eyebrows of the two lovebirds were clinging to each other.

"Whatever happens, I will still marry you Dance, even if my family doesn't approve of our relationship."

Dance instantly pulled herself away and somewhat away from Adam, her lips quivering.

"Why Dance, you don't want to marry me." lick Adam grabbed Dance's hand.

Dance pulled her hand, "Don't mas."

"Why Dance." Adam looks disappointed because of Dance's refusal.

Dance turned her body, whoever helped her, she was very trying to hold back her tears so as not to fall, but no matter how hard she tried, the clear circle just slid down her cheeks, she said, Dance hastily removed it.

"Be careful, please be strong, don't be weak like this."

After feeling himself able to say what he wanted to say, he turned back to face Adam.

"From me....."

"Mas, I'm asking to meet you to return your gift ring." Dance unzipped her bag and looked for the ring box she had just put in there.

Dance took out a velvet box in maroon and thrust it at Adam.

"Dance, what does this mean." Adam looked at the ring box he gave to Tari, the ring he used to propose to her, and now the ring was returned by Tari.

"Our relationship is over, and I have to return the ring you gave me."

Adam glared, "What the fuck is Dance." Adam's voice rose, this is not what he wanted, he met with Dance to mend their relationship, and so on, not to see Tari hand over the ring she pinned on her lover's ring finger.

"I....." Dance tries not to cry, "I can't marry you, take your ring back."

"I don't want to dance, I'll keep marrying you even if my parents don't approve of our relationship." Adam nyoloth.

Dari knows Adam loves her, but Tari does not want to just because of her relationship Adam and his parents become fractured.

"But I can't mas, forgive me." Dance grabbed Adam's palm and stuffed the ring box in Adam's hand, "I'm sure there'll be a woman better suited to wear the ring." she said unwillingly.

"Goodbye mas, I hope you get a better woman than me and will definitely be accepted by your family." after saying that, Dance turned around and left, at this moment, in time, Dance is no longer resistant, the tears she has been holding back have spilled back, separated because the third person was sick, and separated because it was not approved as well as sick.

"Oh my God, why is my chest so tight." Dance held her chest.

Adam runs after Dari, of course he is not willing to let Tari break their relationship just like that, with his wide stride Adam managed to catch up with Tari, he grabbed Dance's wrist which automatically made Dance's body turn to face her.

Dari was shocked because she did not expect Adam to catch up with her.

"You broke off our relationship and returned my gift ring, but why are you crying Dance." - Adam saw that Dance's cheeks were wet with tears.

"I'm just. I'm just.." Dance's voice stammered.

"Forced by my mother." Adam continued the Dance sentence that he could not continue.

"It's not that mas, I just feel unworthy of you, you deserve a lot better than me." she said.

"But you're the best for Dance, I don't want anything else" Adam said.

"Sstttt." Adam put his index finger on Dance's lips, "I want you and only you, to understand you Dance." Adam tries to convince Tari that all he wants is Dance, not another woman as Tari says.

"I love you Whardani Mentari, and it will always be that way, you love me too."

"I didn't....."

Adam cupped her face and looked into her eyes because her eyes could never lie, "You love."

Dance finally nodded under Adam's eyes.

Adam smiled, "Thank you for loving me, Tari, we'll get married soon." Adam broke up.

"But what about Adam's family."

"With or without their blessing, I will marry you."

"But Adam's relationship with the mas family could later be fractured, and I don't want the family mas Adam hate mas Adam."

"I don't care if I can be with you Dance, we'll start a new life and have cute children, you want to get married and live with me Whardani Mentari." Adam proposed to Dari again when they first met.

Dance's lips curled at the beautiful plan, she timidly nodded, "I want Adam's."

Adam carries Dance in his arms, they hug each other sharing a sense of happiness with each other.

"Ohhh, wait a minute." Adam breaks his arms, he runs towards the chair he was sitting on, he picks up the flower he bought and returns to Tari, "This is for you." hands the flower over to Tari.

Dance to pick up the flowers offered by Adam, "Thank you for that." Dance brought the flower closer to her nose to breathe in its fragrant aroma.

Adam then knelt down, he proposed to Dari for the second time, and in this second disguise, he did so with a little romance, he opened the ring box that Tari had just handed back to him, Adam said, "Whardani's mentor, the second time I ask you, will you marry me and be my companion and the mother of my children."

Dance smothered her lips, she couldn't hold back her sense of well-being, she came back crying, but this time she wasn't crying because she was sad, but she was crying because she was happy, and without waiting for long, she said, Dance nodded in response to Adam's proposal.

"Yes, I want to marry you, stand by you and be the mother of your children."

Adam's smile expanded, he stood up from his kneeling position and grabbed Dance's fingers and re-attached the ring to the sweet lover, they hugged again.

There was a sound of applause from around them that made the two lovebirds break their arms.

"Oh my goodness, I'm ashamed, why are we suddenly such a spectacle." siss Tari looked around.

Apparently, some people who are visitors to the park stop and witness the proposal, some even mengvidionya with their cellphone cameras.

"Congratulations, ma'am." The men congratulated and greeted Adam and Dance alternately, they were also happy with the couple's happiness.

"Thank you, thank you for being my cover witness." Adam said thanks.

"May your relationship last until death do you part" said a prayer by one of the men.

"Amin, thank you again." Adam thanked me again.

And the rest of the day they spent going to historic places for both of them and reminiscing about the good times they had spent together, and the story of that day they closed with dinner at a restaurant that served a romantic atmosphere.

The hands of the two lovebirds were clinging to each other on the table, they were unceasingly smiling at each other with loving gazes.

"I can't wait to get married to you, waking up every day and seeing your face next to mine."

Dance smiled, "But what about your family mas." again Dance asked that.

"I told you, I don't care about them, I'll still marry you, even without their blessing."

"But you will be a child of disobedience if you marry me without their blessing."

"You are the source of my happiness Dance, they should not be selfish by imposing their will, all this time I have always been a good child and obeyed their every word, was it wrong this time I chose my own way of life and chose my happiness."

Dance nodded in understanding.

"Dance, I hope, you don't ever mention them again."

Back Dance nodded.

Adam's cell phone on the desk rang, Adam just turned to see who called him, and he had no intention of answering when he found out that the call came from his mother.

"Who is it."

"Mama."

"Why don't you lift."

"I'm lazy Dance."

"Don't that mas, it's mama mas, maybe there's something important she wants to say that's why she called mas." even though Mama Cellin had insulted her, but Dance could not have instilled hatred for Adam against his mother.

Urged by Tari, Adam finally grabbed his phone and answered his mother's call.

"Adam, why haven't you come back too baby." mama Cellin's voice from across.

"Adam is busy ma."

"You're busy, baby, come back, son."

"Yes, Adam is coming back, but Adam is having business."

"Yes, baby you'll be back."

"Yes, if that's the case, ma'am, Adam close first."

"Okay, baby, I'm waiting at home."

"Hmm."

The mother and son ended the call.

"Your mother asked you to come home."

"Yes." Yeah."

"Well, let's go back now."

"Later Tar, I still want to spend time with you, I'm still missing." spoiled Adam.

"But then my mother will be worried."

"I'm already big Dance, I don't have to go home right on time."

"So Mentari, don't think about my mama, you better sit quietly because I want to be satisfied looking at your pretty face."

"What sieh you mas, you dreadlocks." Dari's face met with shame.

"I'm not a pussy baby, it's a fact that you're beautiful until I can't blink looking at you."

"Enough Adam's mas, it makes my head grow bigger."

Adam chuckles.
