Apparently there's an event like an arisan at Rajendra's mother's friend's house. Hearing that, Rajendra initially refuses. There was no way a child as old as him would go to such an event. Especially if there is business not him. Or if her mother insists that Rajendra come along, she will wait somewhere else until the show is over.
Before leaving, Rajendra waited in the car patiently. In his hand was a cell phone he used to communicate with Ignacia. It just so happened that his girlfriend had woken up and had just finished breakfast. Rajendra tells Ignacia that she will take her mother and sister to the event. Maybe Ignacia wants to meet Rajendra while waiting for the show to finish.
Ignacia certainly did not mind if invited to meet. Although his existence is only used to accompany Rajendra. Oh yeah they can discuss the next date later. If Ignacia agrees, Rajendra can pick her up. Go somewhere interesting but not far from where his mother's funeral took place.
After a long wait, Rajendra's mother and older brother finally walked out of the house. Apparently his mother was busy making the first boy look more handsome than usual. Her hair was neatly styled, she wore a perfume that was rarely used by her son, and she chose clothes that made her brother more charismatic.
The hope is only that the daughter of the mother's friend also likes this matchmaking. Four parties including Rajendra already know about this plan, only his brother who has not. Fear will be rejected if you know. Better let the miracle do its job.
"Mother, I will meet with Ignacia while waiting for you to finish. Can you?" Rajendra had to ask permission first so that his mother could understand. From the back seat, the woman he spoke to nodded. The important thing is to pick up her mother and sister after delivering Ignacia home. Pity the girl if she leaves and goes home alone.
Rajendra's brother sat down next to the sister, glancing at her younger one with a seductive look. "Suspect after this Ignacia will be brought home to be introduced to the family. You guys are dating more than usual." Rajendra laughed when he heard his brother's words.
Everything's on target.
"I still don't understand why I have to come along" said the man next to Rajendra, "Mother has been escorted by Rajendra, he will also wait for mother to finish. Then I have to get in the show too. I'm not a child anymore, Mother." Her brother's tone sounded very forced. Rajendra did not know why his brother did not refuse.
His mother only insisted that the brother should get acquainted with the child of the mother's friends. Maybe later it will make it easier for the child to have a broader view. It might help in the current job issues. Clearly, relationships are important. Wherever it comes from, it's still important.
While his brother and mother chatted, Rajendra was impatient to pick up Ignacia by car. For the first time, Rajendra will look cooler. Rajendra must be ready to get a look when Ignacia falls in love with her carrier while driving.
The condition of the house to be used for gatherings looks crowded. Of course, his name was also a mother's association. Must be crowded and full of laughter. Rajendra remembers a small reunion when Ignacia came to pick up customary clothes at his house. For the purposes of school events when still Junior High. Unfortunately Rajendra was not home at the time and could not meet Ignacia.
There were several associations of fathers and young people there. Because the wives have their own gang, the husbands have new friends. It's exciting, but it's no place for Rajendra. Now he better hurry up and pick up his girlfriend and go on a date.
Rajendra's brother is down, leaving him the younger one with his mother. The woman in the backseat advanced her body slightly, intending to chat with her youngest child before leaving. Asking if Rajendra will only meet Ignacia for a while. See if her son has another date after the show is over.
The plan was only a short while because it only discussed the next date plan. I don't know if Ignacia wants to see you for longer. Rajendra will tell his mother if there is a change of plans. His phone will always be on if his mother wants to call as well.
"Be careful when driving, Rajendra." Finally the mother went down, bringing the older child into the house area. Hopefully her brother can adjust quickly to Rajendra's mother's plans. Holding back a smile, Rajendra does his car back to the streets.
Next destination is Ignacia's house.
While the lover was on his way to pick her up, Ignacia was already waiting patiently on the porch. He sat on the porch chair while looking at the quiet street in front of his house. The girl sharpened her hearing if only the sound of Rajendra's motor almost arrived. The man did not say if he would bring a car, so the sound of his motorbike was waiting for Ignacia.
Ten minutes later, a black car stopped in front of Ignacia's house. The beautiful girl who had been waiting was staring confusedly, not remembering if there were friends or relatives of her parents who would visit today. Ignacia will rise to call her parents. The man who got out of the car stopped the girl.
Rajendra waved his hand, greeting his lover. Ignacia hurriedly shut her door. The steps are so light when going to open the fence. "I guess who's coming. Apparently you're." Ignacia smiled happily, who would have thought he could meet with Rajendra sooner than initially thought.
Rajendra politely leads his lover to another door next to the wheel. The door was opened by the man, allowing Ignacia to sit like a princess. Ignacia who get sweet treatment is even harder to hold a smile. It was like being one of the characters in the novels he had read.
It may seem trivial, but it feels special if Rajendra did it for Ignacia. Whatever the man did would have been very special for Ignacia. Even just sitting behind the wheel makes Rajendra look really cool. The long-haired girl never imagined she would be picked up in the Rajendra family's car like this.
Rajendra drove his car at an average speed. See how beautiful this lover drives and passes many vehicles without endangering anyone. Rajendra's driving skills have improved more than when the two were on a double date.
"Rajendra, thank you for taking me away today. I hope I don't trouble anyone," Ignacia said. His eyes seemed to sparkle without Rajendra being able to see.
"You've never been a hassle, Ignacia. I'm just glad I could pick you up. I'll take you home too. Mom told me to make sure you stay safe."
The heart of the girl who heard Rajendra's words exploded like fireworks. Hardly believe if Rajendra's mother asks her son to take care of her. The signs of progress became increasingly clear to Ignacia. Even if he can't see that from Rajendra. Maybe it's not time yet.
Again Ignacia stared at Rajendra long enough, making the person face to face conscious and began to misbehave. This time just let Ignacia focus on every inch of her lover's face through a side viewpoint, Rajendra also has to put focus on the streets so that both of them survive to the goal. There was no conversation, both of them were busy in their own affairs.
Upon arriving at a cafe where the two would chat, Rajendra again treated Ignacia sweetly. He first came down to open the door for his lover, his hands immediately he joined into the cafe. It's not too late, so there are plenty of tables available.
"So, what are we going to do on our next date?" Rajendra is the first to start the conversation. Stirring drinks that he ordered before sitting opposite his lover while staring at the girl's face. "If we can, we're going on a date we've never done before."
Ignacia fell silent, making sense. A date they haven't already been on might be a vacation to a faraway place. For now, that plan can never be done. Can't if Ignacia hasn't been straightforward with her parents. Long time lying if going to go with a friend makes his little heart tired.
Dating too often makes both of them eventually run out of ideas. No wonder why there are many who make a list of activities for dating according to the season and time. Ignacia suggests searching through social media or the internet. Maybe there will be one or two ideas that interest you. This can be done without spending too much time.
"You know, just sitting together like this I'm happy. I love all of our togetherness. I don't know what we should do." Ignacia hung up her phone, turned to grab her drink. He looked at Rajendra who was still busy looking for ideas. He definitely did not want to just sit and be quiet.
Ignacia also likes the times when she can freely stare at Rajendra. There is no boredom-boss staring at the serious face of the man who owns the thick eyebrows charming Rajendra. Seriously, Rajendra had not noticed Ignacia's falling-in-love gaze twenty minutes ago. Too busy diving on the internet.
"What if I go swimming and have a picnic?" Rajendra's bowed head was now raised, catching Ignacia's gaze wet. "Did you like it? We can play water and then have a picnic. We prepare good food and you can read books later."
Only Rajendra knows him best. Most likely Ignacia will love the picnic this time. He is not very good at swimming, Rajendra can certainly help him. Ignacia would agree if her lover wanted that too. Maybe changing clothes after swimming is a bit of a hassle, but that's okay.
All right, it's been decided they'll do what on another date. When will they execute the plan. Neither Ignacia nor Rajendra had any plans ahead. I don't know what the sudden plan will be.
Oh wait, a nice picnic spot isn't in their town. There was no place as good as a double date back then for a picnic. Do you feel like you're going all the way to another city to swim and have a picnic? Ignacia should ask her parents for permission then. Either you get permission or not. Too risky.
"Then we swim. I know a good place. Doesn't matter, does it? I'll pick you up."
"Sure, how could I mind if I could meet you." It's a pity that Ignacia can't have a picnic with Rajendra. Next time Ignacia will be able to do it without having to worry about licensing her parents. Especially the father who seems to be changing.
Rajendra thought his mother's arisan wouldn't last long. It seems to last until after lunch. Then Rajendra should take Ignacia to a nice place. After he drove her home and picked up her sister and her mother at home earlier. It's good to be with Ignacia.
"Thank you for taking me out, Rajendra. Be careful on the road." Rajendra nodded and walked back into the car. Ignacia waved until the car her lover was driving disappeared around the corner. It is better after this he prepares a swimsuit and instead.
Arriving at the reunion venue, Rajendra found his brother and mother waiting in front. Seeing from the water his brother's face is no longer too relaxed, Rajendra seemed to know what had happened. Most likely his mother's plan was successful or vice versa.
"Rajendra, let's go to the market. I have something to buy."
Without much talk, Rajendra again directs this car to the streets. This time the path was a bit more congested to the point of taking more time. Along the way his mother told him about what happened at the reunion. As much as possible do not show deliberate about matchmaking.
There are some that his mother tells about the moment of togetherness of his mother with a friend who intends to make besan. Discussing about his daughter also who knows the second child is increasingly interested. From the tone of the mother's voice, Rajendra was sure if the plan worked.
The market looks crowded, Rajendra's mother asked her two children to stay in the car so as not to get more crowded. And now there's only Rajendra with her brother. Maybe now is the right time to ask about the girl mentioned by her mother earlier. Just now Rajendra wants to open his voice, his brother Lenin told me.
"I think I like the mother's friend's son. At lunch, he and I sat next to each other. It just so happens that's the only place left. There are so many people. He talks to me a lot, some things he likes and that interest me."
"In other words, did you start to open your heart to that woman? Sounds like you guys can get along in no time." Rajendra saw clearly the small nod of his brother who began to misbehave. Her mother's plan was clearly working. "Ehem, looks like I'm coming to the wedding."
"Hey that's too fast!"
Rajendra chuckles with her brother. If you have got the blessing, who would have thought someone's heart could easily change. If nothing is forced by both sides on each of these human beings, it must be the heart of both that works, right?
