Actually Love
Chapter 379_Night of the Year 2
Leo stepped into the living room. He smiled when he saw who was coming.
"Hi, Leo," she said with a smile.
"Hi" replied Leo. Then they hugged briefly.
"Im glad that you came" (I'm glad you came) Leo said. He had indeed deliberately invited William home to spend the night of the turn of the year.
Then Leo invited William to join his family in the side garden.
Papa and Yuna were surprised to find out who had come. They immediately smiled looking at the person standing beside Leo.
"He's William" said Leo, introducing William to his family. "Doctor William," he continued, asserting who William was. She immediately covered her mouth with both of her palms. He could not believe that this great doctor was visiting his home.
"Good night" William said in the first language. Country language I but with its European accent, so that it sounds funny.
"Good night" answered everything in unison.
"It's nice to meet you guys" said William's doctor again in English.
"Waaah, doctor William is great. We already know our language," said Yuna using English. He gave her one thumb and a hand bay. Leo looked at Yuna.
"Thank you for the compliment, beautiful lady. I will be more excited to learn. For your sake," replied Willam already using English. He only understands language in a few sentences.
Yuna laughs loudly at William's doctor's answer but not with Leo. He wants to kick William back home. It felt like he had mistakenly invited William to come.
"Don't pay attention to my wife, Willy," Leo said.
"When you say that, it makes me even more excited to tease him" William replied.
Leo pulled out his phone and dialed a number he easily got from the internet.
"Send 100 creepy clowns. I'll send you the address" Leo said. And he immediately turned off his phone after speaking. Skavers.
William suddenly drowned.
"Ok, I'm sorry. I won't tempt your wife" William said regretfully. He looked at Leo sadly. Without a word Leo pressed the button on his phone again.
"Cancel," he said. "I will pay compensation" he continued. Clik. Done it.
"Ok, you won. You know my weakness best" said William to lose. Yes, Leo does know about this one phobia.
"Why was he left standing. Please sit down doctor. Introduce, I'm Mama Leo," said Mama.
William bowed politely. "Greetings," replied William. He sat down across from Yuna. And Leo sat down beside Yuna.
Mama eagerly introduced her homemade rice tumpeng to doctor William. The meaning and philosophy of rice tumpeng typical country I.
Doctor William nodded in understanding. He's very enthusiastic. It turned out that there was a meaning to this cone-shaped dish, its inner being.
"Is there any special food in our country that you like, doctor?" this time Dimas asked.
William thought for a moment before giving an answer. "Drag," he answered. Yes, this special food is already worldwide. Delicious taste can shake the tongue. "Hmm, there's one more," he said.
"What is that," asked Dimas.
William glanced at Leo for a moment then turned his gaze to Yuna, "Yuna," replied William. And a spoon directly floated towards him. Luckily, William has fast motion. He managed to avoid the spoon throw. This ... as it used to be when Karel praised Yuna.
Mama, Papa, Nora and Dimas were not upset by William's answer but laughed out loud.
"Just this time, there's something blatant like this" Dimas said with a still laugh.
Yuna reached out her hand to clasp Leo's hand under the table. Actually, he doesn't like anyone saying he likes her. Even if it's just a joke.
"So William's doctor is single?" ask Mama.
"Yes" replied William. "Tante wants to find a mate for me?"
"Hmmm, what kind of girl do you want a doctor?" ask Mama.
"Like---"
"Ondel-ondel," said Leo immediately and laughter immediately broke out. William who does not know what is ondel-ondel just grin and scratch his head that does not itch.
"Ondel-ondels?" tanyakanya. "Is she a pretty girl?"
"Yes, very pretty," replied Leo. "Beautiful and sexy."
"Wooh, I like sexy women" Willy said.
They laughed again hearing that.
"But from your laughter, it seems that ondel-ondel is not as sexy as I imagined," said William watching them one by one.
"She's the most beautiful woman in our country" continued Dimas who also wanted to be nosy. William nodded.
"Greetings Willy to him, Auntie," said William seriously.
"Surely, definitely," replied Mama. Then they started eating the dishes. Mama by reading do'a cut the top of the tumpeng. The top, she gave it to her husband. Then, Brother Dimas, Leo, doctors William, Nora and Yuna.
"Hummm from the aroma has been very delicious," said William.
"We'll taste even more delicious if you eat it with this" Leo said. He pointed at the oval-shaped and green-colored side dish.
"What'sthis? Is this some kind of pea? But why is it so big for the size of a bean" William said. Everyone was silent watching William and Leo. In fact, in the hearts of the Great Lord and the Great Madam were very happy. In addition to the state of Leo that has improved, Leo is also more welcome with others. He was no longer cold and stiff in his attitude. Leo even now has a prickly nature.
"It's a pea specialty in our country. You should try it" replied Leo.
"The evening lackey" replied Leo. William nodded. "This was sent from there, specifically" continued Leo. William nodded again. Then, he picked up some seeds and placed them on top of his rice tumpeng. He scoops one.
"Directly two, so that the taste is more steady," said Leo. William added one petai to his spoon. Slowly, the spoon went into his mouth. And on the second chew, William's face turned bluish red. His hand immediately took out a tissue and took out everything inside his mouth. Leo laughed satisfied looking at that. And then there was laughter from all of it. They all laughed out loud to the point of stomach pain.
"You're so fad Mr. husband," said Yuna.
"Let it go" replied Leo. Actually, Leo himself is not happy with the food of that one. Maybe for some people, petai is delicious breakfast including the big lady Nugraha likes the one thing but for Leo's tongue it is very unpleasant. And he hated it when his breath stank.
"You cheated me, Leo. What food is this? Why it tastes so strange" said William who is also not used to the food.
Leo did not answer him, he gave William orange juice to slightly neutralize the taste in his mouth.
"This food is very delicious for the elderly," explained Mama.

At a restaurant on the sixth floor. Vano and Neva just finished dinner together.
"I had a conversation with Leo this morning" said Vano.
"Really?"
"Yes. He asked us about our wedding plans."
"Then?"
"Then he said. He has recovered and will soon return to country I. So we can specify the date and day we want. What date do you want us to get married?"
"I don't know. What if we talked about this with a big family. On January two, Papa and Kak Dimas also returned to the country. Mama and Kak Yuna who are still here to accompany Kak Lee to fully recover," replied Neva who answered a nod of the head by Vano. Yes, he also agreed if the wedding date was determined by the elders.
Vano stood up after looking at the watch in his hand. He extended his hand. "It looks like there will be fireworks soon" he said. Neva welcomed Vano's hand.
They stood facing out the glass window. Vano wrapped both his hands around Neva's stomach. Hugged the girl from behind.
Neva raised her hand to put it on Vano's arm. They both wait for the turn of the year.

The fireworks greeted and ended the year with beautiful colors. I hope there is no sadness this year. May everything be as beautiful as the color of the fireworks tonight.
"Happy new year, baby," Neva said. He slightly turned his head towards Vano and kissed her cheek. "What do you want in this new year?"
"New status" replied Vano. Neva smiled broadly. "Mrs De Vano" said Vano with a smile and kissed Neva's cheek.
Beautiful sparkling fireworks greeted the sky. Vano let go of his embrace and took something from inside the pocket of the suit he was wearing.
"Can you please close your eyes for a second?"
"Why?"
"Close it, please,"
"Au .. I'm Ge Er. Are you gonna give me a surprise like the one on TV, that tv?" Neva obediently closed her eyes immediately.
Slowly, Vano put something on Neva's neck. A Ruby pendant necklace. Ruby gemstone with red color blushing with perfect luster. Ruby is often associated with peace, strength, and love.
Neva smiled as something stuck to her neck. In his closed eyes, he raised his hand to touch something. He felt the locket slowly. From the touch of his hand he could tell if the shape of this pendant were two hearts united.
"Now you can open your eyes" said Vano after putting the two sides of the necklace together.
Neva opened her eyes slowly and smiled. He looked down at the necklace he was wearing. His heart became very moved.
"May you like it" said Vano. Neva nodded for sure. He immediately turned his body and looked at Vano.
"Like. I really like it" Neva replied. Vano smiled back at Neva's gaze. He rubbed Neva's hair slowly.
"The pendant is from the precious stone Ruby. Ruby has a symbol of peace and love. I hope we make peace with everything that has ever happened. About my past, Leo, Yuna and you. Let the past be a lesson for us to move into the future. Hopefully no more problems are the same" said Vano. His hand was still on Neva's head. Rubbed Neva's hair gently.
Neva nodded. Inwardly he promises to make Vano no longer disappointed in him.
"Neva ...."
"Yes." Yeah."
"I love you."
And the two lips meet. To give love from the heart. Both hands hugged each other romantically.
