The Unexpected Love Journey

Ch 9's. First Experience (2)

“Ah, you anyway. Joking got jammed, even hit real,” Andre grumbled when his car entered a traffic jam on the highway; although actually not too jammed because they can still walk a little.

Yunita did not reply, she preferred to close her eyes and try to calm herself down to overcome her nervousness.. Her stomach felt somewhat mules, just when she had to attend her father's big family event every month; an event where she had to face so many questions regarding her future.

A little vent, every time he saw his brother who was always a bad mood every time he came home from the event, he became lazy every time he had to attend such an event every month, if occasionally it might be okay.

Whether only in Indonesia or not, there is one thing that he hates enough from his father is; the habit of comparing him and his brother with other children.

And, one of the toughest points for him was when his father was very angry because he chose to enter the robotics race; his father wanted him to be an accountant, just like his brother. Luckily, her stepmother always broke up when her father scolded her or her brother.

‘Are Andre's parents like that too?’ the question was in his head.

Because, if Andre's parents are like that too, then the same as he will add to his current stress burden and honestly, he is not ready for it.

“Hey, what are you thinking?” Andre asked, he nudged the arm of Yunita who was immersed in his own mind, while staring at the scene of traffic jams outside through the car glass.

“Hah?" Yunita finally realized from her daydream, "No, just bored,” she dodged while smiling a little and looking at Andre who frowned. “By asking something ngak?” said again.

“What?”

Yunita was silent for a while, she rolled her lips, and considered the consequences to her question. And, after careful thought, he decided to just ask, rather than later he made a mistake, “Your parents, rich parents how?”

“Meanway?,”

He became a little nervous when he saw Andre who was back frowning and looking at him in wonder, “Ma.. I mean, your parents are fierce or aren't they?” he quickly tried to explain his question before it became a misunderstanding before he could be dropped off in the middle of a stalled toll.

Andre snorted, he smiled faintly before finally answering “Ah, that. No. really. In fact they are very freeing me, want to do anything also can as long as it does not embarrass my family,”

Yunita sighed when she heard Andre's reply and saw a reaction that was not angry at all, making herself a little relieved,

“Instead, Dad and my mother are very excited to see you,” added Andre again.

“Keep your parents, like rich people how?” Yunita ventured to ask once more. This time, his goal was so that he could grab the hearts of Andre's parents and give a good first impression.

“Hm,” Andre was silent and like thinking, “sopan and honest maybe, and most importantly. Just Be Yourself,” Andre replied. She then held Yunita's hand and stroked it, intending to reduce the nervousness Yunita was feeling right now.

Seeing Andre's attitude like this, Yunita was made to fall more and more in love. Although his attitude is a little childish, but Andre is able to look mature when speaking in a low voice that is a bit intimidating; which sounds very charming to him.

About an hour away, Andre and Yunita finally entered the grounds of a 5-star hotel that is famous for luxury, and of course the super fantastic building rental price.

Coupled with the number of artists and crazy rich who often rent the building, make the prestige of the hotel is increasing and of course impact on the rental price that will be more expensive.

“Well how many journalists?” Yunita asked Andre as her eyes saw a crowd of people gathered in the distance, also a flash of flashlight every few seconds.

When they were at the boutique earlier, he had actually guessed that it was not an ordinary night. However, this was beyond what he had imagined; in his shadow they would only attend the weddings of wealthy people who were usually all-enclosed and only close relatives were present.

“Ah, that's because her future husband is a pretty famous artist, so there must be a reporter,” explained Andre calmly who is currently reading a magazine seriously, like looking for something important in one of the articles in the magazine.

“Ta.. Ta's.. But right..” Yunita did not know what to say, nervousness came back to her.

Every time their car moves, their nervousness grows. His legs became unable to stand still, he also started squeezing his hands involuntarily, his mind unable to focus.

Looking at the nervous looking Yunita and the cold sweat, Andre clasped Yunita's hand. “Just hold my hand like this annd trust me, everything will be okay,” Andre said with a thin smile.

As soon as the car moved back, and saw only 2 more cars left before they went down, Yunita felt her heart beating very fast, the same feeling as when she took part in the robotics race 2 years ago in Singapore.

It's just that, at that time, he could enjoy being accompanied by his friends. While the situation now was very different, he had to stand in front of dozens of such cameras amidst everyone who was very foreign to him and could only rely on Andre.

“Ready?” andre asked, just as the car in front of them was walking and it was their turn to get out of the car.

Yunita simply nodded; since there was already no way back, inevitably she had to deal with this situation as best she could.

“OK, I came out first and then I opened your door, okay?” add Andre again; by chance he is sitting on the right and Andre is on the left.

"Don't be nervous son, just believe in Andre," Budi gave advice just before Andre opened the door beside Yunita's seat.

As soon as he and Andre stepped on the red carpet. The silent atmosphere of the car thanks to the soundproof feature of the expensive car, now turned into a very crowded; the clicking sound of the camera accompanied by flash came from various directions highlighting both.

“Follow me aja continue, don’t let go of my hand,” said Andre who is now hooking their arms together, and after that Andre led him to walk forward through all the reporters without turning a single look, both himself and Andre.
