You Pinang Me As Honey

Episode 13: First Dinner

Scratch of twilight out there. When Ardan knocked on Arinda's bedroom door.

Tok.tok..

No one opened the door.

Tok.tok..

Knock for the second time. Arinda scrunched his forehead. They don't usually wait.

"Yes..?" Arinda from the room.

"Arin, it's me..." Ardan's voice came from behind the door.

Arinda got out of her bed. Opens door.

"Follow me..." Ardan. Arinda did not open the door yet. "I'm waiting downstairs..."

"Wait, Ardan. Where are we going...?" Ardan continued to step forward regardless of Arinda. "Hey..." Arinda's cry was only answered with a wave of the hand. Without looking a bit.

"Ihh..." Arinda growled, but still prepared to meet Ardan.

Arriving in the family room...

"For a long time..." Ardan grumbled to see Arinda coming after 10 minutes.

"I have to change clothes, Ardan. Anyway, you didn't answer when I asked where we were going. Who knows, you might want to come out. So I'm looking for warm clothes in my closet. It's cold outside." Ardan only smiled looking at Arinda who spoke at length.

"It's a good thing you're beautiful, so I'm waiting for you..." Ardan Temptation.

"Idihh, start again..." Arinda blushed.

"Tuu right, you're more beautiful if you're embarrassed..." Ardan looked smiling, continuing to tease Arinda.

"Aaa..., that's it, so don't you...?" Tanya Arinda smelled menacing. "No, I went back to my room..."

"Eee..., wait.wait..." Ardan surrendered. Prevent Arinda who wants to turn around the body. "Yes. yeah.. Yuk.. follow me."

Arinda walked beside Ardan. It seems that Ardan took Arinda to the side of the house. There's a little terrace there. With a few stairs to get to that place.

"Waaahhh..beautiful bangettt..." Arinda said softly, after Ardan opened the glass door. The sun was about to set there. Arinda was fascinated by the sight she had just found in the house.

"You like...?" Ask Ardan with a smile.

"Hu um..." Arinda nodded quickly, without taking her eyes off.

They spend the twilight there. Until it was dark, they rushed in because the air had also started to cool.

That night was the first time they had dinner together in the dining room. Arinda sat to the right of Ardan, opposite Victor.

Victor looked at Arinda who nimbly picked up rice and side dishes and vegetables on Ardan's plate, with a gaping mouth. A very rare sight for him, because during his marriage to Angel he had never once seen Angel do the same thing.

"Hey, what do you see...?" Ardan's asking surprised Victor.

"Ehh, not me." Ardan threw a smile at Victor. He knew Victor was stunned by the way Arinda served him.

"So this is enough...?" Arinda placed the plate that already contained food in front of Ardan.

"Enough. Thanks, pretty...,"

"Together..." Sahut Arinda who wants to be ordinary with the greeting of Ardan. Then he took his food after he had allowed Victor to take it first. Victor refused. They also had dinner together.

After dinner, they spent time in the living room. Victor checks Ardan's phone, hoping Angel gives him some news.

Ardan spoke with Arinda. Sometimes they are heard giggling because they are joking.

There is a sense of relief in Victor's heart seeing Ardan can laugh freely when with Arinda. But on the other side of his heart, there is a feeling of pity with the fate of Angel.

"Tomorrow's the weekend, Mommy." Victor said as their chatter seemed to be pausing. "Does Mas Ardan want to say hello to Alvin...?"

"Oh, of course, Vic. Ask him where he's going tomorrow..."

"Good, Mas."

"Then he said he wanted to go to an amusement park. But ask him again, who knows he's changed his mind.."

"What...??? Amusement park...!!!" Victor frowned at hearing the place. That's where they were considered strange by many people because they were like a couple g*y. And Victor was eager to avoid that place when he was with Ardan and Alvin.

"Haha..." Ardan chuckled at Victor's reaction. He knew what Victor was thinking. "You're scared, honey...?" Tanya Ardan seduces Victor. That word gave Victor goosebumps.

"What the hell, Mas. Hii..."

Arinda seemed unconcerned about their conversation, as she thought they were talking about work. He only watched television with a screen that was wide enough to stick to the wall. But he doesn't know what he saw.

Victor, who's been getting answers from Alvin's nanny, is getting restless. But after looking at Arinda, suddenly a smile broke out on her lips.

"Mas Ardan, how about Miss Arinda come with us...?"

"Hmm...?" Ardan turned to look at Arinda. Thinks. Then nod signs in agreement.

"Come on, rest now." Ardan. "Tomorrow we'll go to the graveyard..."

"What...?" Arinda surprised. "Entertainment park...? What are we going to do there...?"

"Have not asked much. Tomorrow you know..."

"Hey..." Arinda still wanted to ask.

"Vic, you set everything up..."

"OK, Mum. Ready."

Ardan moved from his seat. As if not concerned with the attitude of Arinda who is still confused. "Let's ride..." Said Ardan while stepping.

Arinda looked at Victor, trying to find an answer. But Victor simply raised both of his shoulders while smiling.

Then Arinda hurried to follow Ardan up the stairs and into their rooms. Not long after, Victor also entered his room which was on the lower floor. Victor will indeed stay where Ardan lives. Because he should always be there when Ardan needs him.

Arriving in the room, Arinda immediately cleaned herself, changed clothes, then lay down to prepare to sleep. But his eyes still refused to close.

Arinda remembered the events of today, starting from morning until tonight. Everything he experienced was like a dream. Arinda recalled how when she met Ardan back. Then his emotions are uncontrollable, so he feels comfortable when with Ardan. Like in school. Arinda seemed to have found her old happiness that had been lost.

Arinda sighed. "What exactly is Ardan planning...?" His mind was agitated if he remembered the question repeatedly. For Arinda, Ardan is a very good friend. But the other side of his mind said, time could have turned him into a different figure.

"What is Ardan's real purpose...?" Arinda mutters.

"Feasily he said love to me. He knew I didn't feel the same way about him."

"Is he playing me...? But, the look in his eyes looked sincere."

"Mama's the same papa too, so familiar with Ardan. They talked to Ardan like their own children..."

"Hhh... Ardan is indeed amazing now, even mama and papa can let me be with him for a few days."

"Cand..."

Unknowingly Arinda fell asleep after saying that name. It was getting late, creeping into the morning.
