Chapter 2

Regina repeatedly presses her best friend Jessica's apartment bell. However, the door to the apartment did not open.

“What is he going?” regina's Mumbles. He reached into her bag, took her flat object to contact Jessica.

Hearing the doorbell sound, Jessica who was actually asleep was also moved from her bed. Open the door to people he feels are disrespectful. Because, visiting when the clock has shown at 10 pm.

“Regina? What are you doing here night-night?” jessica asked in surprise as she opened the door.

“Keep!” Regina walked in and sat down on the living room couch before Jessica could be invited.

“Always like that, not yet welcome to play in.”

Regina leaned back while closing her eyes. Jessica, who knew Regina was having trouble, rushed back to her room to go to the bathroom, washing her face so that her sleepiness disappeared. “Minum.” What's up, Re? Papi again?" jessica asked while giving a cold canned drink to Regina.

Regina nodded, receiving the drink with her right hand.

“Have you talked to Anton about this issue?”

“Already.”

“Then what says Anton?”

“She's tired, she wants to end it.”

“Really?” jessica's voice sounded very happy.

“You why is it like that, Jes? Are you happy if Anton and I split up?” Regina stared intently at Jessica.

“Not so, Re, I mean you better get married. Kan, sorted,” said Jessica, more precisely looking for an excuse.

“You're right, Jes, I have to marry Anton. My age is enough to get married. Your brain can think. Thank you, Jes." Regina passed into Jessica's room.

“What did I say? Basic Jessica! Could be Regina. Huh!" Jessica hit him on the head many times regretting what he had told his best friend.

Jessica lives alone in her apartment, she would rather live in an apartment than live in a house with her family. She doesn't want to live with her mother. After Jessica's father died, Jessica's mother remarried and had a son. He was 10 years old then. For a child at the age of Jessica, of course he can not say anything when the mother decided to remarry.

When Jessica was working and felt her salary was enough to finance her own life, she decided to live in an apartment that her late father had inherited first.

Regina and Jessica are best friends from High School, they never part. Even while in college they choose the same campus even though different majors.

This morning Regina woke up first from Jessica. After cleaning her body, she can only wear Jessica's clothes because she didn't bring her clothes yesterday.

Regina walked towards the kitchen, her eyes finding Jessica's kitchen very messy and dirty. Dishes and glasses that have not been washed for how many days.

Regina clucked in annoyance, every time two stayed at Jessica's apartment, Sia was always treated to a scene like this.

Without thinking, Regina immediately washed all of Jessica's cutlery and cleaned every corner in the kitchen. Regina is not uncomfortable doing all that even though she is a child of a successful businessman. Her mother always educated Regina that no matter how high a woman is, she is still a wife and mother. A woman cannot forget her nature.

No wonder Regina deftly does homework and cooking without worrying about her hands getting rough.

Regina opened the fridge intending to pick up groceries to cook. But Jessica's fridge was empty, no vegetables or other food. There is only spagethi. because it feels hungry Regina immediately cook the spagethi.

The fragrance of Regina's cooking woke Jessica up. He got out of bed and caught up with his best friend.

“You often stay here, Re, so that someone cooks me every day,” Jessica said while taking water.

Jessica laughed at Regina. Before long the spaghethi that Regina was cooking was ripe, Jessica quickly snatched the plate containing the spaghetti from Regina's hand and intended to eat it straight away.

“Stop! You haven't had a bath, haven't washed your face and then you want to have breakfast? Go shower!” Regina took the plate back from Jessica's hand.

“Cash! Yes, I'll wash my face.”

Jessica brushed her teeth and washed her face and went back to the kitchen to have breakfast with Regina.

With unanimous determination, Regina must immediately discuss the issue of marriage with Anton. According to him, that's the only way his papa can accept Anton.

“Where are you going?” Jessica asked. He saw Regina was tidy. “Work?” ask again.

“Meet Anton, discuss marriage problems,” replied Regina while combing her long hair.

“What do you mean, Re?”

"Yes, I want to marry Anton.”

Jessica was surprised. However, the girl was also annoyed with herself. I don't know why last night he could say shit marriage to Regina. And, this is how it ends. Regina wants to marry that man soon.

“But, your papa doesn't like Anton. Don't be crazy,Re, don't make trouble.”

Regina was upset, “you should have supported me, Jes. Your best friend is getting married soon. But, you precisely—”

“Re listen to me first,” Jessica said. “I didn't mean it that way. I support whatever makes you happy. But at least you should be able to see the situation. At least you and Anton can convince papi, so that papi bless your relationship. Get Anton to meet your mom to talk about this. Both of your parents are still there, Re, don't let you let them down."

Regina was silent for a moment. It is true what his friend said. It's better that Anton talk to papi and mami.

Regina hugged Jessica's body tightly.

“Thank you Jes, you are always there, always reminding me if I took the wrong path. Once again thank you.”

“What is GPS? Always remind if the wrong way!” jessica exclaimed as she took off Regina's embrace.

“Ya, roughly so.” Regina and Jessica laughed at their own apocalypse.

Regina immediately drove her car to the agreed cafe, to meet with Anton. Time passed, but the man did not come. His cell phone number could not be reached. Regina has no intention of leaving, she knows, Anton is coming.

“Kok, long?” the question was as soon as Anton came in after an hour of Regina waiting.

“Sorry, Re, the road is jammed. What are you suddenly looking to meet here?” Anton sat his body in the chair opposite Regina.

All right, no need to mince words. Regina says her heart's intention is to get married, and Anton must see his parents soon. Regina's eyes sparkled happily when she said the intention of her heart.

“Hah? Married?” Anton widened his eyes at Regina's words. Cold sweat suddenly flowed slowly on his forehead. His heart stopped as soon as he heard the word marriage. “Se-now?” ask her nervously.

Regina nodded for sure. Later that night, he asks Anton to come to his house.

“Re, this is too sudden. I also have to tell my parents. Then how do we prepare a wedding with this short time?”
