Zen was unable to stem the happiness in his heart.
His hand grabbed my body quickly and hugged me tightly.
"Thank you, Almira. I promise I will make you happy. I will fulfill all your wishes" Zen propped his head up on my shoulder. I felt Zen's breath falter, I felt Zen cry.
"Why are you crying? it should have been me who was crying" my protest saw Zen's eyes red and shed tears. Zen smilingly held both of my cheeks gently.
"You are my highest dream. I was happy and didn't expect you to return my love. You were the most beautiful gift of my last year of school" he said for sure.
"I feel like an old man to you" I complained looking into Zen's eyes.
Zen chuckled.
"You still have to respect me as your priest even though I am younger than you"
"Yes, I'm older than you" I said annoyed.
"Stop mentioning age when we're both. Let us enjoy our cknta beautifully" said Zen gently stroking my head.
"After graduation, I'll propose to you. Before that I'll take you to meet my family" Zen looked at me calmly. Her reddened eyes had returned to normal although she still looked like her eyelashes were wet from tears.
"Are you sure of your decision?" I asked to look for the truth in his eyes.
"Yes. Because if it's too long later you will grow old and will torture you to give birth to 6 children for me" said Zen lightly. Makes me upset at the same time pounding erratically.
"Zen.." I punched his muscular arm.
Zen caught my hand and kissed it gently.
"I want to touch your lips, but not now. Wait for me when I graduate" he said shamelessly. I felt cold heat with his sentence without the slightest filter.
"Al, may I ask you more personally?" Zen let go of my hand and started to slowly run his car.
"Can. I will answer it as long as I can and naturally"
"But promise not to get angry"
"What do you want to ask?"
"Am I your first love?"
I jerked. How shameful to admit this. It will be revealed that I never had a boyfriend until the age of 27.
"Yes.." I replied lethargic.
"I'm happy, Al. I am too. You're the only woman I love after my mom"
"really?" I was overwhelmed by his words. Everything related to the mother figure is the happiest focus and the most beautiful advice for me.
"Yes. Next month after the exam I'll take you to see my mom and dad"
"Are they going to accept me, Zen?" my voice sounds soft.
"Don't be afraid. They are the ones who support me to be independent like this"
"And when are you going to take me to see my future in-laws" Zen smiled mischievously.
"Of course after you're not busy and my campus activities aren't crowded"
"I promise you, Almira. I'll graduate with the best grades. I'll continue my studies after we get married"
"Your test will start in two months. After that, the announcement passed. Isn't that too soon for us?"
"Trust. It's a decision that's equally beneficial for us. And again not a good relationship dating too long. I'm afraid I can't help myself" Zen so openly said all things. I was embarrassed to hear it.
"I want to have children soon" whispered Zen making me really embarrassed and pounding.
"Zen, shame me a little" I complained in the face of Zen's overly open attitude.
"We have lunch first, I will take you to a restaurant built by my company. You have to start knowing what efforts your husband is doing to make his wife happy later" Zen said calmly.
"How many companies do you lead, Zen?" I tried to figure out what Zen's life looked like in his youth.
"Not much, I have a telecommunication cable material supplier whose center is in this B city. And my company makes several subsidiaries in several cities that are engaged in several businesses such as culinary and travel"
"Welcome to Zen" said the security guard at the restaurant's entrance. Zen smiled and greeted the officer.
His attitude was friendly and did not distinguish status.
"My future wife" Zen said as the officer looked at me. I glared at Zen who was smiling sweetly.
"Brother was happy to hear it. Quickly finish your school" the officer said with a laugh.
Looks friendly. I began to add my list of jekaguman to the young figure of Zen Pratama.
A man and a woman in neat clothes greeted us in the lobby of the restaurant.
"Welcome, Mas Zen.tumben usually alone" welcome the male with the name Andreas.
"I'll get married soon after graduation" Zen said proudly. Mr. Andreas laughed and the woman next to him was seen smiling blandly. Every now and then his eyes glanced at me and Zen with a strange look.
"Thank God, we're happy, man. Hope everything goes well" Andreas said happily.
"Please, mas.the room has been prepared"
"Thank you, Mr. Andre. Ohya, I'll just order food inside" Zen grabbed my hand and invited me in. The room that was prepared was so clean and clean. Maybe this is the class of privacy or VVIP space commonly used for meeting entrepreneurs.
"May I call you dear if we're both?" Zen sat opposite me.
I smiled shyly. Zen was very open to me.
"You should call me with a call dear. So that the love and affection we have will continue to grow and increase"
"Why be alay anyway." lamented I faced Zen's attitude.
"Or is it just like young people dating out there?"
"Zen.do not overdo it. Tell me where they were" I shifted Zen's shameful attitude.
"Sir Andreas was a confidant of my father. He's the restaurant's manager. And the woman next to him was the head of the production and marketing department of this restaurant. The woman's name is Airin. She's still single and reportedly doesn't have a boyfriend"
"To that extent do you know it?" my search. There is a sense of dislike with the status of a beautiful woman named Airin earlier.
Zen laughed crisply.
"After marriage you should not be jealous of my employees. Because to me you are everything. All you have to remember is that you're my life's goal"
I was ashamed of my attitude. How Zen easily knew this sijap kanakanku.
"Almira, I'm really happy today. I love you so much. Are you happy with me too?" Zen looked at me seriously.
"I love you too, Zen" I said softly "I'm sorry if there's an attitude I don't have in your heart. Maybe I need to adjust to your world of work"
"Yes.akupun. I just hope you believe me. You are everything to me"
Today went so perfectly. Zen was very attentive to my comfort. I feel so meaningful and happy with him. Sometimes there is a labilistic attitude of young people who are spoiled and need attention. Sometimes he becomes a person who is full of authority and keeps himself as a leader.
Little by little I began to know who the real Zen Pratama was.
I admire him not without reason. Jija in school is no different from his age, joking, playing basketball, even doing activities like high school children in general.
However, Zen does have more value to be proud of. Many girls in the school admired him but none of them managed to captivate his heart. Zen's figure is completely clean from romance in school.
He hangs out and blends in with anyone as a friend, colleague, even a peer tutor. All the same and treated the same. Zen is very caring for relationships and good relationships.
And I'm proud of that. I am proud to be the one he loves. The only woman after her mother. Uhh...Zen how perfect you are.
I love you so much as you are. If allowed I want to give you the best happiness of your life.
If God permits me to have many children with you as long as you are happy with me.
I realized I didn't know Zen yet. And whether the Zen family will accept me well after knowing my circumstances, especially the age that is far enough.
"Don't be afraid. Just look me in the eye and tell me you love me. Then believe all your fears will be overcome" said Zen at that time.
Will it be that easy on my journey of love with her?
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh...Zen, I really love you.
