85. Get that out of me
...Life always offers a choice...
...determining choice...
...the path of life...
A whisper that re-echoed in the recesses of the Orchid's heart.
*****
If you knew what I was feeling right now, all the feelings were mixed together. I can't even translate what I feel anymore.
I put a coffee cup in the glass. Started to concentrate on reading the rental agreement letter under Bian's gaze. He was shoring his chin while smiling. Another hand knocked slowly on the edge of the table.
"Will the lease be under the hands or a notary agreement?"
"By your hands, Brother Bian!" I keep reading every line of sentences. Dare not look at him.
"Do you believe the deal is under your hands?"
"Yes, Brother Bian,"
"Yes what?"
"Yes I believe in Bian, too,"
"What.. What did you say? I didn't hear it,"
"Yes I believe in Bian's brother," I gulped, He did it on purpose. After I said out loud that he did not keep his promise. Then I had to swallow all the words again. When the truth hit me hard.
"What else do you believe in me?" I frowned and turned my gaze from the agreement letter to Bian's face.
"What do you want me to believe again, Brother Bian?" I said weakly while signing Bian's property lease agreement. To be honest, I'm ashamed to accuse him of not doing anything with confidence.
"You're adorable when you're like this, I feel like I want to pounce on you but wait when the time comes and you've legitimately become mine. What's more interesting about Kenzo than me?"
Okay I'm out of breath and cold sweat soaks my palms. Bian began to bring out the other side that I had never seen.
......-----......
"There must be a privilege of everyone, Brother Bian. Can't compare to each other,"
"He's special in your opinion? meet me with him, let me judge for myself."
I took a breath and sighed slowly. Filling my chest cavity to get my mind clear again. Bian started playing the word. Everything I say will be a boomerang. I have to be strong otherwise he will continue like this.
"How about Tasya, why so long after your proposal and engagement you're not married?"
"I don't want her as a wife. I love Tasya as a friend and sister to me. I don't want to give her any false hope, our engagement is off,"
"Easy then?" I could hardly believe it, after the matchmaking drama that made Bian give up some of his rights as the Prasetya family. Followed by our relationship that ran aground just ended.
"Easy that? you think it's easy? did I say the cancellation of the engagement and the proposal was something easy?"
"No, Brother Bian" I cursed myself for making another mistake.
"I knew something was wrong when I met Tasya. He was depressed because of a broken heart. A subtle 'sick', all presumed to be recovering by the wedding of me and Tasya."
Bian sipped his coffee "But I knew it wasn't solving the problem, I was the one who pushed Tasya to see a psychiatrist to check her mental health. While in Jakarta I accompanied him on therapy to recover his psychic condition,"
"Oh,"
"I put myself into being a 'compliant good boy' all my rights were returned papa. I went back to building my own business, Working with Arga Danumarya included getting rid of a bully, while taking care of you by placing Cleo. He's in charge of helping you grow your business and keeping you at my request,"
"I prepared you to enter the Prasetya family. I'm sorry I didn't mean to say this well but understand my family's weakness is seeing someone out of what they've got. It was a problem and I was looking for a solution,"
"You said a bully earlier, Who?"
"Cleo says Dion always comes to see you. I don't like the news, Moreover Cleo sent someone to follow you guys while walking along. I think I'd like to slam the phone into a picture of how romantic you two are drinking coconuts."
"Arga is in the process of making a film where I am the executive producer who co-financed the Arga film. Cleo's been looking into Dion's profile, he's interested in entertainment. It's quite coincidental that Arga was apparently involved in a deodorant ad with Dion,"
"Well.. You mean you had a hand in Dion passing a casting in Arga?"
"Yes you're right, besides Dion's talent. Arga did not arbitrarily choose the actor in the film. Arga in the latest film is also a producer,"
"I prepared and fixed all the things for my mistake of running away from the problem. Tasya is the second child of her family, she has an older brother with special needs at my age. Due to the syndrome she suffered she remained a child in adulthood. Tasya is the hope of the parents, the princess who became the focus of her parents and her brother,"
"All you do alone?"
"Danar helped me,"
"Cleo managed to execute my orders to help your efforts, you smart Orchid. All help is useless in the hands of the wrong person. You succeeded, At the same time my efforts went smoothly, Tasya was declared to be recovering from depression and he will continue to take his pending master's degree. Preparation to continue the family business empire,"
Bian looked at me fixedly "Tasya is not interested in getting married at the moment, He is beginning to understand the big responsibility. I also have an independent business now. Our family began to loosen the choices we were about to take,"
Bian stood up then he pulled the sofa stool and put it next to my chair.
"I prepared you to enter the Prasetya family. I can't choose which family I'm born into. The thing I don't like is that my family judges people by what they have. I know there's no choice but to get you ready to be in our family,"
"Conditional acceptance!" I snorted angrily at the thought of the open and unconditional acceptance of the Kenzo family.
"I like you from a broken-hearted Orchid, has a tiny booth named pentol unyu, He was a fragile man at that time even had to suffer pain because he wanted to look perfect, he said, Kenzo knows you when your business is far away and growing, you've become a young entrepreneur. He didn't accompany you from zero, Maharani Orchid,"
"Have you brought up the kindness instilled by you, Brother Bian?"
"You said conditional acceptance. I remind you of that from my family but personally I love you what's inside of you. There are no conditions in my love"
I swallowed the saliva not knowing what to say. Bian solved the problem from the roots without any clashes. He knows the problem area and then looks for ways to solve it.
"Why didn't you just run away here?"
"Four thought was over but if I never escaped here. We will never meet. This is the life line I have to go through, the line that leads me to meet the woman I love and it leads me to solve problems in the family,"
"Yes the lifeline," I nodded in agreement.
"I've talked to Danny and Tasya's grandfather about you. They're interested in meeting, I'd like to give you a surprise in the near future, Orchid but it's just a surprise from you that I received,"
Bian pulled my hand before I realized. He put my palm over his palm. Clasped my hand tightly and turned the chair so that we faced each other.
"I was furious that Kenzo had escaped Cleo's supervision. He didn't expect Kenzo to take Miepa to the bazaar at first, so taking the initiative to propose you as an inspirational figure is the beginning of your close relationship. Cleo thinks only professional relationships,"
"Why is it when you're all done you're not here right away, Brother Bian? so it doesn't need this to happen,"
"Grand, I just solved this problem. To tell you I'm still there for you. I sent all 'marks'. That's so you know my heart is still for you, haven't I ever asked you to take care of your heart?"
My body feels weak a lot of the things he did for me. Why I know this moment.
"You're pale, honey,"
"Yes, I'm sorry Brother Bian. I've misjudged you,"
"You can make amends by doing one thing for me. Just one, would you do it for me. Just one thing?"
"Yes, Brother Bian. After so many things you did. Tell me one thing what I should do,"
Bian clasped my hand and then he grabbed the ring finger that coiled the ring from Kenzo.
"Take this off your fingers and come back to me, Maharani Orchid."
