A&R (Aleta And Raven)
20. The matchmaking?
"what's the matter, why did aunt Zanna ask like that" he murmured inwardly, then continued to wash the dishes.
On the other hand, Raven and Evano were chatting in the living room.
"Raven" Evano called Raven seriously.
"yes om"
"you must have known about this matchmaking"
"i-iya, Raven already knows" he said.
"you don't have to worry, om will help you get Aleta to agree to it" Evano held onto Raven's shoulder.
"do you love my son?" evano's question rattles his heart, he does have feelings for Aleta but he himself is not sure if it's love, like or what it feels like.
"i honestly don't know how I feel about Aleta, either"
"om sure, someday you will love each other"
"but what is it possible, om. While Aleta's sister looks like she's not interested in Raven?" Raven.
"you don't think like that, you have to try. You should be able to get Aleta's heart, om believe in you"
"Raven will try, om"
"good, I'm glad to hear it"
The clean-up is over now everyone is gathered in the living room, to talk about Raven and Aleta's relationship.
"why did you tell everyone to gather here?" ask Aleta in your heart.
"everyone's gathered, let's start" Evano began the conversation.
"actually what is it? why do you look so serious" Aleta asked everyone, because she noticed that everyone looked so serious.
"so this is dear" said Mala.
"mama, papa and aunt Zanna are good friends" he continued.
"you-you mean mama?"
"auntie will explain to you" said Zanna and Aleta listened to every word she said. Among happy because in the end the three friends were reunited, sad to hear that his father Raven was dead, and confused because his mother never told me about this. And he was shocked when he heard the last words that Zanna said.
"WHAT?!" he cried out in his heart, and his mouth gaped in disbelief.
"what does all this mean?" ask Aleta as soon as Zanna finishes talking.
"pa? ma?" he continued, staring at his parents in turn. While Raven had a quick glance at Aleta, she was afraid that Aleta would not approve.
"you calm down baby" Mala told her daughter.
"huuf.(.Aleta wastes a rough breath) What is the meaning of all this?" ask him again.
"fooling?" he said in his heart. Then looked at Raven.
"do you know about this?" Aleta asked Raven, and Raven looked up.
"sorry brother" he answered.
"lo.. is there no other word that comes out of your mouth other than that word?" aleta asked with great emphasis, hearing Raven always say sorry to her. Raven just kept quiet while looking down.
"honey, you don't like that to her" Mala said, holding Aleta's arm.
"mom.."
"Aleta's enough!" Evano spoke looking at his daughter sharply. Aleta fell down and sat down beside her mother.
"quickly you apologize to Raven" Evano ordered, Aleta was silent.
"Aleta!" evano shouted in emotion. Aleta was afraid that her papa was directly hugging her mother tightly.
"pa.." said Mala to calm her husband.
"pardon Aleta's attitude yes, Raven" Mala told Raven.
"iya ma, Raven understood. Maybe Aleta's sister won't agree to it, so Raven won't force her to accept this match"
"gw will never accept this matchmaking" Aleta said at a glance at Raven.
"Aleta! papa said enough!" evano once again.
"Aleta... Aleta already has a boyfriend" she told a lie, and everyone stared at her including Raven.
"who? who's your girlfriend? until it makes you defy the same orders of your parents" asked Evano.
"a-there" he answered stammeredly without looking at his papa.
"mampus gw (holding his nose)" he said in his heart.
"Aleta?" call Mala and Aleta to look.
"mama knows you don't have a boyfriend yet"
"A-Aleta already has kok ma" he said again while holding his nose.
"mama sure you're pretty sure you're lying"
"Aleta didn't lie ma" he held his nose again.
"Aleta, you're my mother's son"
"mama knows that if you're lying you'll be holding your nose" realized his hand was holding his nose he immediately lowered his hand.
"yes because you're mama's son, mama knows all about you dear"
"if you knew all about Aleta, why didn't you tell me about this?"
"yes, 'cause mama doesn't think it's time you found out, baby"
"when does Aleta know?"
"yes, my mom doesn't know, either. And you see now, you know it all, now that there are no more secrets that mama has hidden from you" clasping her two daughters hands.
"but not gini ma"
"mama must know, if all this is too.." she cut Mala.
"mama knows, this is all too sudden for you. But please, just this once you want to accept this matchmaking?"
"but ma'am.."
"it's okay Mala, let him think first" said Zanna.
"it's okay, brother, at first I was also shocked to hear all this, but after I thought about it slowly I started to get the answer" said Raven a little nervous.
"and I'm sure, big brother will definitely understand as time goes on" he continued.
"be quiet, you know what this is all about? You're just a kid"
"it's enough Aleta!, you've been late" said Evano.
"wr..."
"dear, you don't force Aleta too much. Let Aleta think first" Mala broke up.
"iishhh" upset Aleta, then ran up the stairs into her room and locked her from the inside.
"what the fuck is all this?" he said after laying down his body on his stomach in bed while crying.
"why do I have to be fooled, does it look like I can't find my own soul mate? hiks hyks" his stuffing behind the pillow.
"but...(turn lying facing the ceiling of his room) what attitude I had passed with Raven? aakhh.why be gini siih"
tok tok tok (the sound of knocking on the door from outside Aleta's room)
"Aleta peeper herself" he shouted from inside the room.
"sister Aleta?" call Raven from behind the door, and she thinks her mother who knocked on the door wasn't. Aleta got up and stood at the door.
"what's going on here?"
"sorry, I.."
"kalo lo here just want to apologize mending you do not need to come here again"
"i know you must be angry and disappointed right now, but you're trying to understand how our parents feel"
"they used to be good friends as if nothing could separate them, but they used to be forced to separate because of something and it was very difficult for their lives"
"and in the end they were reunited, even though they had to lose one of their friends. Can you imagine how they feel? the pain was not worth the anger and disappointment of sister now" Aleta listened to every word Raven said and it made her slightly aware of her actions.
"gw knows" he said softly and perhaps Raven didn't hear him.
"but I don't want to be betrothed in this way, none of this makes sense" Aleta said.
"gw never understood the feeling of mama, I never helped the work of mama hix. and maybe I became a burden for mama hiks hyks"
"gw always wants dingertiin and gw. hiks hyks. I feel that I am not a good child hyks hyks"
"sister Aleta don't cry" said Raven softly from behind the door. The parents watched from behind with a big smile, maybe Raven was able to make Aleta better.
"how do I have to do?"
"try brother clear your mind first, do not ignite emotions. Brother think with a cool head" said Raven soothingly.
"try sister take a breath out of the nose" Aleta followed Raven's orders.
"hold for 3 seconds"
"1.2.3... exhale slowly through the mouth" and Aleta managed to do it.
"is my brother calmer now?" ask Raven gently.
"a little bit" he answered briefly.
"have you made a decision?" raven's question made him think again.
"gw astonished at the same time amazed lo" said Aleta suddenly.
"sister mean?"
