Waiting for your Love to Grow

Fiancee Candidate

"Who is he?", asked Vanya to Denis, after letting go of his embrace and seeing Nabila who had been looking at them both.

Denis didn't answer Vanya's question. Denis left Vanya walking towards Nabila. But Vanya did not let it, by running small to grab Denis' arm and tuck his hand there.

Denis was about to let go of Vanya's hand, but Vanya insisted on not letting go. Denis just resigned. They walked towards Nabila.

"Nab, meet this Vanya, the son of papa's business partner" Denis said while still staring at Nabila who was also still staring at the two of them.

"Nabila", said Nabila introduced himself while extending his hand to invite shaking hands. But Vanya did not return Vanya's hand.

"Vanya, the prospective fiancee of Denis", said Vanya while looking at Nabila dislike, then turned to look at Denis with a sweet smile. His hand still won't come off Denis' arm.

Denis who heard Vanya's words was shocked. "Vanya! What do you mean?", Denis snapped, letting go of Vanya's hand.

"Loh, papi's been planning our engagement all day long, brother. Surely aunty has also conveyed to the older brother right" said Vanya while staring at Denis sticky, while Denis still did not stop caring for Nabila.

" Sister hasn't answered my question, who is he?" Vanya said as she glanced at Nabila.

Denis had not had time to answer, suddenly Nabila preceded him to answer, "I'm an employee in Mr. Denis' office", with a forced smile and then lowered my head.

" Oh, just an employee, I think__”, Vanya did not continue his words. "Don't come with me, I came here just as cool, there's Oscar and Luis too" said Vanya pushy while tugging at Denis' arm.

"You guys just go, I still want to go for a walk myself" said Nabila.

Actually Denis was reluctant to leave, but after hearing Nabila's words he decided to come with Vanya.

"Are you really okay with me leaving, or are you coming?" Denis.

"Go, I am not a child who everywhere should be accompanied" said Nabila as he walked away leaving the two.

Denis who walked while being pulled by Vanya just followed resignedly. Sometimes he looked back to see Nabila who was getting further away from him.

Nabila just followed where his feet went. The incident he saw earlier made his mood change. Not because of jealousy, really not because there is no love in Nabila's heart for Denis.

"Well, maybe I'm too silly. Who me? I still don't understand why he married me. Of love? Don't expect Nabila, even to acknowledge our marriage alone he doesn't dare. Where may he care about your feelings", grumbled Nabila in the heart, occasionally he inhaled slowly and exhaled violently.

" I miss you so much mami", she grumbled again. Nabila was still sitting in a chair in front of which saw the view of the pool whose water was so soothing to the eyes of people who saw it.

Denis has separated from Vanya and her friends who chose to go home first. Soon his feet stepped in search of his wife's whereabouts.

He looked to the right and left of every road that passed, but did not see the nose of his wife. Sometimes he asked someone to look for the whereabouts of his wife, by mentioning her characteristics. But the result is nil.

Denis pulled out his phone, intending to call his wife. But when he started to open his phone, his lips suddenly swore, "fucking" as his right hand grabbed his own hair.

He forgot that until now, he had never kept his wife's phone number.

After walking there, Denis finally found the figure he was looking for. The man sat quietly on a bench. He approached the figure he was looking for.

"Still at home here?" said Denis, sitting next to Nabila.

Nabila just kept quiet, didn't answer Denis's question. He looked at Denis at a glance, then his eyes were again fixed on the beautiful scenery that was in front of him.

" It's late in the afternoon, let's get out of here. I want to take you somewhere you're sure to like" Denis said.

Long enough Nadia was silent, then she said "we go home, yes, I'm very tired" while looking at Denis with a pleading gaze.

"All right, we'll be there tomorrow" Denis said.

They both got out of the place, then drove in Denis's car. On the road the atmosphere of the car looks silent, they are silent with their respective minds. Sometimes Denis glanced at Nabila who had been staring at the window glass of the car next to him. Eventually the car arrived at Denis's parents' yard.
