Lazily Cilla woke up from the bed when the door was pounded hard enough. He grumbled, annoyed by Theo's behavior that was different from before they officially became cousins.
“Ten minutes to go pick you up below. From earlier mami called your phone did not enter, kept busy,” Theo sneered.
“Iiih his name is also dating again,” cebik Cilla. “Indeed aunt Siska would like to take you where?”
“Napa massage ? I'm ready, your time is only ten minutes.”
Theo passed by leaving Cilla who immediately locked her room back and prepared. It didn't take long because Cilla wasn't the kind of dandy girl who took a long time before going out.
“Kak Theo is also coming?” cilla's eyes narrowed when she saw her cousin's brother was neat complete with a sling bag and prepared to wear shoes.
“So I come here just as a doang apartment guard ? Instead of joining alone here, was at home aja,” said Theo with a sharp tone.
“Kak Theo now really so judes very, anyway,” scolding Cilla. “Exceed girls again pms.”
“Kayak your girlfriend does not like jutek aja !” sahut Theo while glaring.
“From the beginning of Mas Juna has been like a gasoline hose, if Kak Theo was originally a calm man full of charisma. Uh it turns out oh turns out, Brother Theo is more annoying than Mas Juna,” Cilla rushed to follow Theo's steps longer than him. Both of them left the apartment to the elevator.
“Belain aja keep your girlfriend it,” cebik Theo with a sour face. “Awas if later fitting often left behind, come home while crying so that your Mas Juna is advised not to be a super busy man.”
“Original Brother Theo nyebelin. Swear the ugly Cilla ! Find a girlfriend there so as not to be easy jutek. Over time jones become less sensitive to the feelings of women”
Theo only snorted in annoyance as the two had already reached the ground floor. It looks like Siska's mom is waiting for them in the apartment lobby.
“Loh papi om Rio not with Aunt?” Cilla frowned because she only found her aunt alone.
“They're seeing business partners again. Yesterday, now is the time to shop,” aunt Siska immediately pulled Cilla's arm down Orchard Road .
“Eh how is shopping ? Not to a tourist spot, Tan ? Or culinary tour ?”
Aunt Siska shook her head and continued to hold Cilla's hand along Orchard Road which was always crowded without knowing the time. Theo just followed from behind with a sour face.
“Find a meal first yes, Tan. Starting hungry, let alone ngadepin jutek guy who is more than a girl again pms,” grumbled Cilla while glancing towards Theo behind him.
“Indeed you are the same name Theo ?” ask aunt Siska with a smile.
Since Theo and Cilla came down it was already seen that there was a cold war because both of them put on a jutek face and not joking as usual.
“Neither, Tan. From earlier Kak Theo ngomel only, nakut-nakutin Cilla also about Mas Juna,” grumbled Cilla.
“The basis of the bocil, usually ngadu continue,” cebik Theo. Cilla stuck out her tongue.
Aunt Siska just laughed and did not try to defend anyone. He invites Cilla to cross the zebra cross because the crossing lights are green,
“On foodcourt how ? Many options and not far from where we want to shop.”
“Where aja, Aunt. Cilla is not picky food, which is important delicious and can make the stomach full. And another one is not expensive,” said Cilla while chuckling.
Aunt Siska laughed. Though the pocket money given by Papi Rudi can make Cilla eat well every day. But for Cilla would be as expensive as any restaurant he visited, if only alone remained uncomfortable and the food was tasteless.
That's why he once told Arjuna that eating alone is very unpleasant and the beginning of his friendship with Arjuna is as a friend to eat, not a girlfriend.
“Now where are we going, Auntie ?” tanya Cilla saw Aunt Siska stepping towards ION Mal. But Aunt Siska just smiled and gestured for Cilla to follow her.
Cilla's eyes frowned as they entered a boutique with a brand that was quite famous in the Singapore market. Because the clothes offered in this place the model is very formal, far from the taste of Cilla who prefers casual clothing.
“Tante regular shopping here ?” asked Cilla in a curious tone.
“You choose one that is roughly to your taste for the official dinner. The plan tonight papi Rudi wants to ask her single daughter,” said aunt Siska with a smile.
“So early in the morning papi did not say anything to Cilla,” eyebrow Cilla menaut felt unsure of the words of aunt Siska.
“Udah anyway, told parents to obey without protesting napa. Where may mami cadaver until told you to buy all clothes,” Theo embrace Cilla's shoulder and invite her to look around in a row of women's clothes that are roughly suitable for girls the age of Cilla.
This time Cilla did not protest anymore, he complied and began to look at the row of clothes hanging neatly in several rows.
He saw a black knee-length dress with lace on his neck. Looks neat and not too open, because Cilla herself prefers sleeves rather than dumbfounded hands.
His eyes widened when he saw the price tag attached to the clothes he was holding. His brain directly calculates the price in Singapore Dollars to the rupiah currency. He hurriedly put the shirt back on the hanger. Crazy ! The price attached to a plain black dress shirt combined with lace reaches one million and five thousand rupiah.
Aunt Siska who had since noticed Cilla's movements was only smiles while Theo clucked irritably while shaking his head. Whether stingy or too frugal, Cilla's attitude is far from the picture of a rich man's daughter who will not run out of money just buy a dress for one million and five thousand rupiah !
At the request of Aunt Siska, a servant brought some pieces of clothes that were roughly suitable for Cilla into the fitting room.
“Try a few clothes that have been selected, Cil, including the clothes you were holding. Don't look at the price. All these instructions from your papi directly. Don't let your dad be disappointed. You must look different and look special tonight,” said Aunt Siska with an indisputable face.
Finally Cilla relented and tried a few pieces of clothes brought by the waiter. On the advice of aunt Siska and Theo, black clothes combined with lace that was held Cilla became the first choice plus 4 other pieces of clothing each in black, peach, light blue and yellow. Everything looks beautiful when worn by Cilla.
“Create what much like this, Tan ?” Cilla already wants to return the clothes that have been confirmed to be purchased when at the cashier table.
“Eh duckling, she says she wants to be Arjuna Hartono's wife. Want to come to a business party to meet his colleague Arjuna wearing jeans and t-shirts ? Or want to let Arjuna carry another handbag when they have to attend a meal invitation that requires bringing a partner ?” theo said as he folded his hands in front of his chest.
“Learn to be a girl who starts to mature even though your body can not get higher. Don't be ashamed of your future husband who is known as the great CEO,” cutty Theo.
Theo's words had struck Cilla's heart and made him speechless for a while. Aunt Siska immediately glared at Theo who spoke quite loudly to Cilla. Theo simply shrugged both of his shoulders as his mama stared at him sharply.
Theo's words make Cilla aware, if he is ready to be Arjuna's wife, means he must also accept Arjuna's condition as it is.
After his education in High School ended, then finished also the role of Arjuna as a teacher. He will return as a CEO who may not only lead a company, but also some of the companies that will become Cilla's in time.
Cilla also had to change, no longer just a college boy who can relax hang out with anyone and talk as he wants now. She will be the wife of Arjuna Hartono, the CEO who is well known among entrepreneurs. It is not impossible that the life of an Arjuna Hartono will become the target of news hunters.
“Cilla, do not be too entered about the talk of Theo earlier,” aunt Siska embrace her shoulder when they have walked back to the apartment.
Cilla looked up with a smile, her head immediately shook.
“Cilla is okay, Auntie. What Brother Theo said is absolutely true. Cilla likes to forget that Mas Juna will not be a teacher forever. Once Cilla graduates, Mas Juna will also stop being a teacher and return as CEO. Besides two months Cilla's age is also seventeen years, it's time Cilla learned to be an adult woman, can not bring herself children continue.”
“Yes everyone should be metamorphosed after their age. The important thing is not to force yourself and eliminate your identity let alone become what others want. Such conditions will not last long, even in a relationship that was originally filled with love. Because love is not just like to like to see the good, but also must be able to accept the shortcomings of the people we care about. That's just the name of true love.”
Cilla nodded and smiled. Embrace the arm of aunt Siska with a little spoiled. How sometimes he misses the figure of a mother who is able to understand his needs as aunt Siska does today.
