"If so put Darius or God to guard Arumi. I don't want anything to happen to my son-in-law..."

"Good, Mister..."

"Ep... El, why don't you ever call me papa? I've said many times that you've been part of this family. And you have the right to call me and Dania like Mirza called us"

"It's just rude, sir..."

"Aish.now I'm not just asking you . But tell me you're calling me papa. Listen...!"

Elvano gasped as the high-pitched word approached his ear.

"Good, Sir. Uh, Pa.."

"Good.Sometimes I feel like you're my real son if you see Mirza's stiffness. I don't know where that stiffness came from. Am I too hard to educate him?"

"If he wasn't as strong as me then he wouldn't be the number one entrepreneur right now.."

"But therefore he cannot recognize which girl is good, which one is only after treasure and fame.."

"Maybe his heart will soon realize it..."

"Hopefully..."

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

In another place at the same time. Arumi, who still uses the pain certificate from the doctor by lying down and relaxing. His mind was wandering about when Mirza kissed him. Suddenly his face turned red. There was a strange sigh that always popped when remembering all the things about his handsome lecturer.

But when she remembers her last words last night, Arumi scrunched her forehead. He breathed heavily.

"You don't love me, but you kiss with your passion. Then you go back to saying that you don't love me. Ah, that refrigerator man could have done that to a girl like me. Although I am not beautiful, but at least do not treat me as despicable. Akh.." Arumi's inner.

He put his face on the pillow. The ends of his two legs stomped alternately on the soft mattress that he slept on. There was an annoyance that lingered in his heart at that moment.

Then suddenly Arumi seemed to remember something. Therefore he immediately got out of bed and took the object that some time this became his friend.

Yeo...." Arumi cheered when she found the scales dropped by one number. Arumi jogged around the room. His hands pointed in the air.

"One..one.." said Arumi repeatedly. Satisfied with his behavior, Arumi again threw the body into the mattress. The breath goes up and down quickly. Then his hand opened the calendar on the phone. His mouth was creaking, like casting a spell.

"But if it's one month, my weight goes down two kilos then...Ah, there's no way I can slim down in six months. Hadeuh.." said Arumi while scratching his head that did not itch and buried his face back on the mattress with a little annoyed.

"Aishis...I should how?

Arumi beat up the mattress he was sleeping on a little irritated. He screamed because his face was still on the pillow.

"I beg God, give me that miracle. Ah, while waiting for a miracle I'd better keep trying. I can't despair. My only way right now is to go on a more restrictive diet. Okay, Arumi. The spirit...!"

Geck.

Geck.

Geck.

"Mbak.ada mbak Vanya below" said mbok Parni behind the door.

"Yes, tell him to go upstairs..."

"Good, Mommy..."

Shortly afterwards, we heard a step closer. The rhythm of his steps was so slow and hinted that the owner of the foot was a graceful person.

The kreeek...

The door leaf creak opened. Arumi was blown away when she heard it. He wanted to immediately tell his achievements to his best friend.

"Vanya...Va....!"

Arumi said instantly choked when she found out who was standing in the doorway.

"Tan-te Dania...!"

Arumi hurriedly approached the middle-aged woman who still looked beautiful. Arumi grabbed Dania's hand and kissed the back of the woman's hand who was predicted as her future father-in-law with reverence.

"How are you, Ndok?

Dania hugged Arumi. Gifts a gentle kiss on the head of Arumi. Next to her hand rubbed Arumi's back. At this moment in his chest there was a burning feeling. There was anger running through his soul when he saw Arumi's state.

"Arumi's fine, Auntie"

Dania sighed. He did not expect Arumi to experience two events at once only a few hours apart. Dania's eye-light keeps Anger.

"Who's aunt?"

"alone. Earlier when he heard it from Om, Auntie immediately slid here. Aunty's worried, let alone your dad being out of town"

"Thank you, Auntie. Sorry trouble..."

"Don't hold on, baby. If anything happens quickly tell Auntie, om or Mirza. Listen..."

"Yes, Auntie..."

"Promise...?"

"Arumi promise, Aunt..."

The smile of Dania from the corner of her lips found Arumi's willingness.

"Well, how's your relationship with Mirza...?"

Deg.

Arumi's blood ripples when asked about her relationship with Mirza. It's gamang. Don't know what to say?. Arumi sighed which felt heavy to her.

"Sorry to put Arumi in this situation. But Auntie is sure, one day Mirza will open her eyes. Keep up and try. Arumi loves Mirza, right?

Blushes...

Flushed Arumi's face got the question. Not wanting to know the color of his face at this time, Arumi also kept his face deep while feeling his heart beating violently like jumping.

Dania smiled at Arumi's reaction. His heart cheered when it came to knowing Arumi's current feelings. In Arumi's arms in his close embrace.

"Tante knows. And Auntie was happy to know it.." while breaking down her happy smile.

"Tante.." said Arumi lirih.

"Yes, sorry for taking the plunge to see you. Your friend is still downstairs. Where are you guys going?"

"Em, want to go to the shopping mall. There are some personal items to buy..."

"Then put this on...Arumi can wear it as Arumi likes" said Dania offering a black Debit Card.

"No need, Aunt. Thank you.." reject Arumi with a smile.

"Why...? Just wear it, don't hesitate.. Auntie's happy if Arumi wants to wear it..."

"I'm sorry Arumi Aunt. Not that Arumi does not respect Auntie, but it feels that Arumi is not ready to receive this Award. Sorry..."

Dania scrunched up Dahi. This time there was a girl who refused the money. But on the other side of his heart he was happy. Because he did not misjudge Arumi.

"Then, Auntie, excuse me. Have fun. Don't forget to call Auntie, om, or Mirza if there's anything..."

"Yes, Aunt. Thanks..."

Dania breezed out of the room in Arumi's radius. The second step seemed to go down the stairs are quite long. Once again Arumi kissed the back of Dania's hand with reverence just before the woman passed with her luxury car.

After the departure of Dania, Arumi hugged Vanya who was looking at her questioningly. Seeing that Arumi immediately gave an answer, worried that his best friend was speculating first.

"Em, she's Mirza's mother..."

"Yes. I-i know. So your relationship is like in-laws and daughter-in-laws?"

"Ah, speak what the hell Beb...Em, we're mall-mall, right? Come on, I'll be in the middle of the afternoon. Hot, Cin..."

Vanya is dissatisfied with Jabawan Arumi. But what to say if the owner himself does not want to tell a story. Vanya sighed while following Arumi's footsteps.

"Ten o'clock past fifteen minutes. Arumi and Vanya are already in the shop. Both steps seem impatient. I don't know where exactly the destination of the two because some of the personal equipment stores that are commonly visited have been passed.

Shortly thereafter, both cheers were heard while in front of the center of the game.

"Well, it's been a long time since we've played all this" said Vanya sumringah.

Both step steadily. The eyes of both of them glistened like eagles preparing to catch prey. Almost all of the games they play range from single games to double games. From screaming, singing to jogging. Everything is done with joy.

Ridiculous, the right word was pinned on the two at this moment.

Meanwhile, in the same place when the silliness of the two took place, two handsome men had just stepped out of one of the cafes in the shopping center. Both Mirza and Elvano had just met with one of their important clients.

Mirza's legs come to a halt as her eyes catch Arumi and Vanya's silliness by accident. His lips revealed a smile at the behavior of the two girls who he thought was so ridiculous.

"Gokil is also a girl.." - Inner Mirza.

"Want to join, Boss...?"

"Ah, if I want, the place I bought..."

"Eugh.mocky" said Elvano, chuckling.

Then Elvano finally approached Arumi and Vanya who were in the dance box.

"Sir Elvano." said the two almost simultaneously.

Elvano smiled as she played both her eyebrows up and down.

"Where are you, sir...?" asked Vanya while keeping her smile.

"Meeting...Keep looking at your madness so stop by the dech.

"Alone, sir?" ask Arumi.

"Why? I'm with someone, huh..?"

Blush....

Arumi's face flushed. His face was hidden in his lap.

"Usually where Mr. Elvano, the refrigerator man exists. Where the refrigerator man exists, Mr. Elvano exists. You guys are like a clap button. Wherever both.." said Vanya.

"Hahaha.." The third laugh broke out.

"You're okay? I heard from Elvano about last night's events." Mirza said as she stood beside Arumi.

"I'm doing fine. Lucky Mr. Elvano was there last night. If it's not possible today I'm in the hospital or maybe even more fatal..."

"Eat him if the road is careful." said Mirza. After that he passed without any expression.

"Eh, yak.yak..yak...! The base of the refrigerator, play nyelonong aja" said Arumi annoyed when left alone by Mirza without having time to answer anything.

Elvano and Vanya who saw that, can only throw eyes at each other just to see the departure of Mirza.

Arumi pulls Vanya away from the place and heads to one of the cosmetic stores.

"We're fine, Ar.."

"How will I be well, if I am treated as such..."

"Everyone's different, Ar..."

"I knew. And there seems to be no chance for me..."

"Don't despair. Ar's spirit" said Vanya who answered Arumi with a nod of his head and his trademark smile when out of the shopping center after getting the necessary items.

Arumi's eyes swept across the parking lot. I don't know why he did it. Is Arumi looking for someone or something. Only God and He knew. Hehee....

Arumi's step was quite long when heading to the car about two blocks from where he stands now. While Vanya followed him while smiling looking at his best friend's back.

Drrt.

Drrt.

Drrt.

"Slightly stay away from Arumi. In front was Mirza who wanted to talk to her. Em, we can have coffee or something if you want.."

"All right, Mr. El..."

Vanya also meets the demand of Elvano. Slowly but surely Vanya's steps become no longer in line with Arumi.

"Ah, there it is. Lelet one step. Hey.if you notice she's sweet too. She is also different from other girls. Not because of his height or weight but he was different. Why am I impressed to praise him. Shit..."

"Ok. one, two, three...."

Bruck...

Arumi hits the door Mirza just opened. He is also suspicious.

"Akhs...."

Arumi was suffocated as her body hit the car door. Not only because of how he hit him but rather the shock he experienced. Arumi's body is. Intentions want to nag the owner of the car.

"Come in.." said Mirza a little ketus and flat face only. Not once, but three times Mirza asked her to come in when the girl had not fulfilled her request.

Arumi again gasped when Mirza's last words were like an order in her ear. Arumi sat in the car next to Mirza, who looked handsome, sitting behind the wheel.

"It turns out I had to be a little harsh on you, and you heard me. Have you always been like that?"

"Ah, why are you nagging me. You should apologize for hurting me..."

"You should be the one apologizing for hitting my car. Aish..I feel sorry for my car because you've been hit with your bully's body..."

"Ah, how anarchic these refrigerator man words are. I don't know if I'm in this pain. Must have done it intentionally. Basic heartless man. But the reason why I still love her.

Arumi. Taper lips. While his hand rubbed his bones that had stumbled earlier.

"Is that sick...?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore, sir. Why is there such a man as Father. Come apologize to me. Come on..human refrigerator" inner Arumi.

"Sorry...."

"What...! Mr. Mirza Adyatma, the refrigerator man apologized. Am I hallucinating?" inner Arumi.

"Hey.I've apologized. Why are you keeping quiet? Is dumbass already your hobby...?"

"No. I was just surprised to hear you apologize. I don't seem to believe it"

"Then assume I never said it"

"Egh.." Yeah...."

"Where are you headed, I'll drive you?"

"It's okay to drop off a bad girl like me?"

"Not many comments. Just answer..."

"Damn nieh, girl. Since gaining her confidence her mouth was like an unstoppable express train" Mirza's inner.

"Widya Salon and Spa...."

Mirza immediately turned the wheel to the place Arumi mentioned. His eyes occasionally stared at the girl next to him who looked mediocre. Even very mediocre.

"Do you love me?"

Degs...

Arumi was silent. Mirza's question made her cornered.

"Why did he ask again? What does he really want? Then I have to answer what" inner Arumi.

"If you love me, then why don't you try to chase me or try to make me fall in love with you?"

"There are many ways to show love. And I am not one of the girls who indulge in love in public. Especially to kiss or run after the father like the other girls or maybe the boyfriend of the father. Love does not have to be blind. Love does not have to be forced. If not love, then it is..."

"Well, what did I just say. Why do I say it like that. Actually if I dare I will do it, tell you even the world that I love you. Not just kissing or running after you but asking you to marry me.." Arumi's inner.

"You are different Arumi. You're not like the other girls who always chase me. Forcing me to be happy just wants to have what I have, which is treasure and fame. They always pluck me like ants finding sweet gulali.." - Mirza's inner.
