5 Years of Marriage Without Love
Proposal

Dina \= ["Whose problem is it? you're the one who won't track down the number that terrorized me. Know for yourself what terror is like. That means you don't care, don't want to protect me, if I fall into the hands of another man. If you are like that, we better be friends. Let me find a companion who can take care of me sincerely."]

Billi \= ["You want to break up with me?"]

Dina \= ["Yes, we better be friends, before marriage you are possessive with me, especially later when married. My breath may be stopped because of your possessiveness."]

Billi \= ["Dina I'm sorry about you, I'm sorry. I love you so much, I can't afford to leave me. I'll take you to Istanbul, I'll fly today."]

Dina \=["How dare you come here, I won't forgive you."]

Billah held Dina's shoulder, she looked him in the eye.

"Solve the problem do not use emotions, not problems that are solved but instead add to the problem, ego downin Din," advises Barah.

Dina took a breath and exhaled slowly.

Dina \= ["Billi, I forgive you but don't be so possessive with me. I don't like your attitude like that, Billi whom I knew before I became my lover was warm and always protected his best friend."]

Billi \= ["I'm sorry, I'm just afraid of losing you. So my attitude changed for you. I'm sorry well.I'll track down who the number is that's been through you. After all you are my future wife whom I must protect."]

Dina \= ["I'm also sorry, for speaking rudely towards you. Thank you for understanding me."]

After the incident, Billi changed his attitude towards Dina. A new relationship must be able to learn to understand each other's partners. Don't over-exalt the ego, understanding each other is the key to a relationship.

Blah invited Dina to the Hagia Sophia, explaining to Dina that the Hagia Sophia was built in the sixth century as the Byzantine Church and later converted to the Catholic Church in the 13th century. It was converted into a mosque by the Muslim conqueror of Istanbul (then Constantinople), Mehmed II, in 1453. But Turkey's first president, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, revoked its status as a mosque in 1931 and turned it into a museum in 1934. On July 24, 2021, President Erdogan changed the status of the museum to a mosque again.

"We pray dzuhur si here well, feel the atmosphere of prayer in Turkey," asked Bilah, to Dina.

Didn't feel Dina's been in Turkey for 1 week. Blah really took Dina around Istanbul.

Today Dina will return to Indonesia, Bilah deliver Dina to the Airport.

"Bil, I thank you very much you have invited me around Istanbul, take care of yourself well, well" said Dina.

"Loe also take care of yourself loe well, don't continue to be confused Billi, get along well your relationship. Remember my message, don't tell me my number is the same Bagas," Bar's message.

"If I get married next month, you don't go back to Indonesia?" ask Dina.

"Gue will attend my best friend's wedding, there's no way I won't come to loe Din's wedding. I want to take care of my business first. I'm gonna miss you." Bar hugged Dina, before Dina entered for the visa examination.

"Gue wait for you to come home Bil, to Indonesia." Dina waved her hand, then she went inside to head for her flight.

Bilah bought her a Dina business class flight ticket so she would feel comfortable when she returned home to Indonesia. A shorter journey than departure. 13 hours Dina was on the plane and finally she arrived safely at Soekarno Hatta Airport.

Billi invited Dina, with a very happy face, to welcome Dina's return from Turkey.

"Capek yeah? here's your suitcase let me take it," Billi said.

"Thank you, Dad, you picked me up" said Dina.

"Don't thank you, it's my job to pick up my future wife. Can I hold your hand?" ask Billi.

Dina nodded her head and smiled at Billi. Dina's heart felt pounding hard when her hand was touched by Billi. They walked together to the parking lot. Billi stuffed Dina's suitcase into the trunk and opened the front door for Dina.

"Take me to my parents' house well, all I know you," said Dina.

"Would you introduce me to your parents?" ask Billi.

"Why not?" ask Dina.

"I'm very happy to be introduced to camer" Billi smiled.

"Or I've known you for a long time" said Dina.

"But as a friend, it's another status. Your husband-to-be, I'll apply to you. If you've talked to your parents. Only my father who came to your house, to propose you officially," said Billi.

"Huh..now you want to say? are you sure you want to marry me?" ask Dina.

Billi pulled her car over, she looked at Dina with eyes full of confidence.

"I'm pretty sure I've been married to you, the woman I've been secretly in love with all this time." Billi held Dina's hand while talking to Dina.

"Do you doubt me?" ask Billi.

As their eyes stared at each other, Dina hurriedly turned her eyes away.

"Day dear, to quickly arrive" said Dina, smiling.

Billi was very happy when Dina called herself dear, because when in Turkey she did not want to call Billi affectionately.

After 1 hour, Billi arrived at the silence of the parents of Dina. Billi breathed in because her heart was beating fast.

"You nervous?" Dina touched Billi's hand.

"Little." Billi smiled.

Billi opens the car door for Dina and picks up her suitcase. They stepped towards the door of the house.

Tok tok tok tok

The sound of the door being knocked.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Mom, Dad," call Dina.

"Wa'alaikumsalam." Rio, Dina's father opened the door.

"You've come home from Turkey? bring some souvenirs for Dad?" rio asked, smiling at his daughter.

"Bring dong Daddy, when I forgot the same father," replied Dina.

"Billi thank you for picking up Dina, let's go in first. Coincidentally Om and Aunt want dinner, all yuk," asked Rio.

"Let's go in, baby" asked Dina.

Rio was confused when Dina called Billi affectionately.

"You guys?" Rio asked.

"Billi's my lover, Dad, he came here to talk seriously with you. But after eating Dad. Dina was hungry, kangen also the same mother's cooking." Dina put her hand in her father's hand and walked to the dining table.

"Mother..." Dina immediately hugged her mother.

"Eh the beauty is home, how come? kirain Ibu equals Bilah up to 2 months hehe,"canda Tia .

"Well, ma'am, how do I work in Bandung. I was in college too" said Dina.

"Come Billi, let's eat. I'm sorry for how it is," Tia asked.

They had dinner together with Kitmat. Dina's family who was so welcome with Billi made her not awkward when talking to Rio and Tia.

After dinner, Dina took her parents to the family room.

"Om, Auntie, I love Dina. My intention to speak today with Om and Aunt is to propose to your daughter. Later my father will come to this house to propose officially Dina," said Billi.

"When are you?" ask Tia.

"It wasn't long for me to have my Mom's press conference. I'll tell you everything" said Dina.

"Om waiting for your father Billi to propose to Om's daughter" said Rio.
