Arlan's betrothal



Riani was not angry at all seeing Aira's expression. He already understood everyone who saw the scar if not disgusted ya surprised.


The Aira family told them all to come in and gather in the main hall.


Aira walks with Riani. Aira was already in love and quickly close to Riani because seeing the woman looks like a kind and loving person. Although actually she still hopes Niana who became his sister's future wife, but, but Aira also will not refuse if Riani later became her brother's soul mate because all of that is the destiny that must be lived by her brother.


"Mba, where's Arlan? Is he home?" ask the woman who is Riani's mother.


"Of course he exists. That's it." Tatiana's index finger pointed at a man who was coming down from the stairs.


Arlan looked very handsome and dashing, he wore a white shirt with no tie and suit and three buttons from the top he did not pin.


Riani looked under her future husband. His face looks flat.


"Mba, it's Mas Arlan. My brother's handsome, right?"


Riani's face seemed to blush in embarrassment. He nodded his head once slowly.


Arlan seemed to smile kindly introduced by his mother to the Riani family.


"He's very handsome, Mba Tia," praised Riani's mother.


"Of course he's very handsome because he's my son." They both laughed.


"Ma, where's the girl I want to be betrothed to?" ask Arlan for a moment.


"You can't wait to see your future wife?"


"Not impatient, isn't this event really held for me to meet the girl you're dating?"


"He's with your sister."


Aira holding Riani's hand they walked closer to Arlan.


Arlan looked at Riani from top to bottom. For him this girl he was about to be betrothed to was not too bad.


"Mas Arlan, this is Mba Riani. Pretty, right?"


"Mir!" Riani looks embarrassed by Aira's praise.


"Yes" answered Arlan briefly.


Riani raised her head to look at Arlan who replied that Riani was indeed beautiful.


"Hi, Riani," said Arlan.


"Hi, Arlan. Ma'am, and Budhe, I can't talk to Arlan both."


'This brave girl also directly wants to be alone with me. Hm! I wonder what he wants to talk to me about?' arlan said in his heart.


"Of course I can. You two should talk to both."


"Arlan, can you talk to both of you?"


"of course. We'll talk to him by the pool."


Riani nodded and she walked following where Arlan's feet were stepping.


Aira who saw it seemed to feel that there was something different about her brother.


Arriving there Arlan immediately twisted his body staring seriously at Riani.


"What do you want to talk about?"


"Arlan, I'm sorry if this show might bother you."


"Why do you know that so well?"


Riani looked a small smile. "Arlan, do you have a boyfriend?"


Arlan was somewhat surprised to hear the question of the girl in front of him.


"It was, but we decided to end the relationship because he knew I was going to be betrothed to you and he didn't want it until I became the brave kid against my parents."


Arlan immediately smiled obliquely. "If that means anything, there's definitely not going to be this meeting. Why don't you refuse this match?"


"I love both my parents. I wish I could get married and have a happy little family. So, I accepted the matchmaking that both your parents planned."


"Are you not having a lover? Don't tell me you don't have a boyfriend because it's impossible. You're beautiful, you look smart, there's no way you don't have a boyfriend."


"I don't have a boyfriend and I've never had a relationship with anyone."


"What's? You serious?" Arlan looked surprised. Riani nodded. "Why could that be? Are you the one who chooses too much?"


"I've never had the kind of man I love because I didn't dare to do that."


"Why?"


"Arlan, I'm afraid of loving someone, I'm afraid they're disappointed to have a lover like me?" riani lirih.


"What are you really why? You have an abnormality?"


Riani shook her head slowly. His hand then picked up the hair covering his face that had scars there.


"Because of this."


Arlan looked surprised to see the scar. He immediately withdrew from Riani.


"Any man who sees this scar must be disgusted and unwilling to come near me. I didn't turn them on either."


"Therefore you also want to accept this matchmaking because surely you will get a husband? Huh!" Arlan seemed to not believe that his mother would match him with such a ugly girl.


"I told you why I wanted to be betrothed to you. If you have refused, but it is not heard, then I will tell our families to cancel this match, even though I have to make my parents' hearts hurt."


Riani who was about to walk away from there immediately her hand was stopped by Arlan.


Riani looked surprised looking at her hand. "What's wrong?"


"You don't have to cancel our match." Arlan took off Riani's hand.


"Why?" Riani looked astonished at Arlan.


"Because I don't want to make a child disobey his parents."


"But, aren't you rejecting this match? I don't want you to feel tormented by having to marry me."


"We'll think about it later. Now we go back to the main room. They're all waiting for us."


Arlan walked in and Riani followed him again. They regroup with their families.


Aira who saw it seemed still curious about what her brother and his future wife were talking about.


"Mba Riani is okay?" tanya Aira made sure.


"I'm okay Aira. Why do you think his face looks so worried?"


"Honestly, I'm afraid that Mas Arlan said something that made Mba sad because it actually was."


"Brother don't you approve of this matchmaking?" Aira was somewhat shocked by Riani's words. "I'm glad Arlan said something honest. I've also told you that I have a deformity on my face."


"Mba Riani also showed that wound?"


Riani nodded. "There's nothing I need to cover, Aira. If you want to start a relationship, you have to start with honesty. That's one of my principles."


Aira was more and more fascinated with the heart that the girl her brother was about to match up to.


The Aira family invited the Riani family to eat together. They all looked warm and both of Riani's parents looked still thick with the typical attitude of people living in the countryside.


After the meal together, Tatiana reiterated why today's event took place.


"Ma, I accepted my arranged marriage to Riani" Arlan said firmly.


Everyone there looked happy. Unlike Riani and Aira, they felt that what Arlan said was not what his heart wanted.
