Albern and Lily
Commitment

Albern was still staring at Lily with question marks. He decided to let the girl cry to her satisfaction, without caring for the other restaurant guests who were beginning to pay attention to her.

After Lily felt somewhat calm, Albern began wiping away the tears that soaked the girl's cheeks with the available tissue.

Albern sighed while looking at Lily with mixed feelings. There was a sense of relief in Albern's heart after he expressed his pent-up feelings all along. But on the other hand, he also does not know what to do with Lily because Lily's reaction is too ambiguous and can not guess.

"What should I do to you, Lily?" albern muttered as if monologuing on himself.

Lily lifted her face and looked back at Albern. He looked at Albern's face while swallowing his saliva with some difficulty.

My God, Lily really did not expect that this man of her tribe also had the same feelings as her. He was just about to start a struggle to get Albern's heart, but Albern himself instead expressed an unexpected love for him. Between delight, shock but surprise, Lily finally reacted with a rather unusual twist. She was crying as if something was making her feel so devastated.

"I also love Brother Al ..," Lily said at last in a somewhat belligerent voice.

Suddenly Albern's eyes widened at Lily's words.

"Every day I dream of being the only woman who accompanies Kak Al. I always think of ways to make Kak Al look at me. I really don't think that Brother Al has the same feeling. I was so surprised I didn't know how. My heart feels like it's about to explode out of pleasure." Lily touched her own chest.

Albern was stunned with his eyes widening.

"Every time I imagined that one day, Al would marry someone else, I always felt like I was going crazy. I have to endure that feeling every day, and hope that one day Kak Al will see me as a woman." Lily wiped away her tears that had fallen back involuntarily.

"I really didn't expect that Brother Al would have the same feelings for me." Said Lily again while holding her stuffing.

Albern. As with Lily, the man also did not expect that Lily also loved him. Having previously felt confused by Lily's reaction to her love statement, this time her heart suddenly felt like it was filled with thousands of flower petals. A faint smile finally rose on Albern's face. Something that had never happened before, an Albern Brylee smiled so sweetly at a girl.

"So you have the same feelings for me?" Ask Albern later.

Lily answered with a nod. And this time it was Albern who reacted unexpectedly. The man laughed like something was funny.

"If I had known that, I wouldn't have harbored my feelings for too long. All this time I was afraid that you would feel uncomfortable and stay away when I expressed love for you. I was worried about something unnecessary." Albern interrupted his laughter.

Lily laughed, before their laughter finally subsided. The two then looked at each other with equally deep gazes.

"So, from now on can I wish on Kak Al?" Ask Lily.

Albern nodded. His smile was flaring back as if he had a stock of smiles today.

"Of course I can." Albern replied then as he got up and came back closer to Lily.

"Sir Al ...." That's the only word Lily can say. He still couldn't believe that he had heard the phrase day from Albern, the man he had long desired.

"May I also feel jealous of Brother Al?" ask Lily again.

"Do as much as you want. I love it when you're jealous" replied Albern.

Lily smiled happily and looked at Albern with a cringe.

"Lily, will you promise me?" Ask Albern later.

"What promise?' Lily asked back.

"Promise me that you will never be in a relationship with another man, and love me for the rest of your life" says Albern.

Lily looked towards Albern.

Albern smiled again. I don't know how many times he's smiled.

"Yes, I promise." Reply Albern.

Lily was stunned and did not know what else to say. Everything became so beautiful in an instant.

"Sister Al, will we always be together after this?" Ask Lily again.

Albern nodded.

"Yes, we will always be together, no matter what the circumstances" he said.

"Sister Al will never marry another woman, right?" Lily asked again

Albern.

"I'm just gonna marry you." His word.

Lily smiled brightly again. He looked at Albern's face with a feeling that was almost popping.

Ah, Lily had no idea that her dream of side by side with Albern would come true like this. Everything still feels like a dream.

"Sister Al, I'm not dreaming, am I?" For the umpteenth time Lily asked.

"You think?" Albern asked back.

Lily's hand extended back to her face. He pinched his own cheek and instantly grimaced with pain. Everything is real, not a dream. Lily was not asleep. And this beautiful thing is a reality. Albern's love statement is reality. A truly happy reality.

"Thank you, Brother Al." Lily murmured finally softly. There were no words to describe Lily's current feelings other than being happy.

After being content to pour out their feelings, Albern finally returned to deliver Lily to campus because there were still classes that he still had to take. Along the way, their smiles will take turns to expand. The two men who were in the closet seemed unable to hide their feelings. Until finally, they reached the campus Lily.

"Sir Al, after this we will meet more often, right?" Lily asked for a moment before getting out of the car.

Albern nodded.

"In that case, I'll go first, brother."Lily was about to get out of the car, but then she felt Albern's hand rubbing the tip of her head gently.

Lily was stunned for a moment while slightly buying her eyes with a chest that suddenly felt thumping.

"Don't play around too much, study hard" Albern said.

Lily nodded softly as she touched the top of her head.

'Mama, Brother Al rubbed my head. Am I a cat?"

Seriate...
