Dear Om Rey
Chapter 25: Will you be Girlfriend Om?

The premium MVP car in white drove away. After not being seen again, I went into the house and cleaned all the cups and plates that still had some leftover snacks.

I still can't believe Miss Sekar really let me stay here with Om Rey. He said goodbye as if he had just come to visit our newly occupied home as if we were newlyweds.

His desire to soon have the granddaughter of Om Rey who is so big, made him think so unorthodox. Though Aunt Dewi had warned her several times to take me away and let me stay in one of her apartments only. But Bu Sekar still refused and let me be with Om Rey alone in this house.

She said, "Mom believes in Rey. He won't till the heart stains Danisa. I just want them to get closer to thinking about getting married so they can do the activity immediately. We'll see how far Rey can hold him back after a long time of not doing it with Manda."

The words front^l Bu Sekar really made me stunned again.

"And don't wash it. You must be cape. Let ART wash tomorrow." Om Rey said as I picked up the dishwasher sponge.

"It's just a little, Om. It's okay." Without looking at her, awkwardness still enveloped me.

"Yes, if so, help ya." He grabbed the glass wrapped in foam and rinsed it.

"Udah, Om. No, let me do it." I clean hard.

"Both are more sparse, Dan. Let you take a break too."

Then I let him go, not wanting to argue. My plan after I finish washing these glasses, I will head straight to my room. We wash in silence. Only the sound of tap water and our washing activity was heard.

The last cup is finished. I grabbed my bag tucked away in the dining table chair. "I'll go upstairs, Om." My pamphlets still don't look into his eyes.

"And." Hand grabbed. As soon as my heart shrieked, I guessed it he must have kept me from leaving.

"You still angry?" Om Rey took my hand. "Sorry Om, yes."

Because Om Rey mentioned that the flash of shameful events flashed back through my mind, making me want to bury myself in a hole again. I bowed my head in shame, still turning my back. "Udah, Om. Don't talk about it anymore."

Om Rey pulled me, turned my body and wrapped her hands around me. My heart immediately boomed beating rapidly.

"A little while, Dan. Please be patient." I pulled my hair slowly.

"Don't discuss, Om!" My protest covered my face and hid in the chest of his field.

Om Rey chuckles. "Why? You shy?" Not getting an answer from me, he grabbed me tighter and pecked at the top of my head. "Don't run away again, yeah. Um so think that you were acting like that."

Om Rey walked away and looked at me. "Tomorrow, Om will meet your Grandpa. Om will return Manda, as well as ask for blessing to marry you. Although it may not be direct, but after the divorce process is complete, Om will immediately bring the Om family to see your family."

I don't know if I should be happy or what. Everything happened too fast. This Rey is not my girlfriend. Will I get married without dating? A lot of questions popped into my mind.

"Wait, Om. Om seriously marrying me?"

Om Rey looked at me warmly, grabbed a little bit of my hair and pinned it behind my ear. "Of course, I've been thinking about your marriage. But just a thought. Just look at the mother who likes you so much, Om so sure for your marriage."

"Why? We know 2 months as well." I reminded him, worried that he had forgotten how fast this was happening.

"And, that mother always sniffed with Manda. They never get along, but the same you, when you just met, but mother is already good and so unfortunately the same you. I'm really sure that you're going to be a good wife, and if you're that sure, Om's also sure you're going to be the right wife for Om."

I'm honestly confused. I don't know him anymore.

"And? Wh why? What are you doing in them?" Ask to see me who is silent does not answer.

I looked at his face worriedly. "Om, I'm not ready yet."

Momentarily Om Rey fell silent.

"But we are..." Nada hangs.

"Yes, I know we're already.that's." I lowered my voice when I said that. "But Om, I want to date first. I don't want to get married first. I haven't thought of it until there, Om. I'm only 18 years old, I've just become a student. I want our relationship to be gradual, Om. I want to be shot first Om, ngedate, continue to do things that are usually done by dating people. I don't want to get married all of a sudden."

He looked at me meaningfully.

"Sorry, Dan. It's too rushed, yeah." He said while smiling softly. "Sorry to be selfish. You know Om is not young anymore. So did mom..." He did not continue his words and instead scratched his eyebrows which I was sure did not itch.

I understand, given the age of Bu Sekar who will be 70 years old, Om Rey must be eager to grant the mother's wish to immediately have a grandchild. But it's also about my life, I want at least everything that happens between me and Om Rey to run like any other normal couple. If I get married now, I have to lose my youth and become a mother at a young age, I never really thought it would happen to me.

"Well, you wait here for a minute." Om Rey walked towards her room and soon returned with a smile on her lips. I was still standing in my position in confusion.

Om Rey grabbed my hand and gave me something. A tosca colored jewelry box with a famous brand on it is now in my hands.

"This is what, Om?"

"You open it."

I slowly opened the box and saw a necklace with a small heart-shaped pendant. Real pretty.

"Let's go back in the locket." I did what Om Rey said and saw the letters D and R engraved there.

"It's..." Suddenly I was at a loss for words.

Om Rey grabbed the necklace and walked behind me, wearing it around my neck. I stall back my hair and I touch the pendant that now hangs around my neck.

My body faced him and said. "After our conversation, Om can't wait anymore."

My forehead shriveled not understanding.

"Om not going to be selfish, Om is going to be your girlfriend before you become your husband. But Om says from now on, we're not going to date for long. Because Om wants to make you Om's wife."

My breath's stuck.

My hand is held. "Can Citra Seruni, will you be Om's girlfriend?"

It seemed like suddenly hundreds of fireworks were scattered, blasting ^s in my heart. His voice filled my head. Om Rey is really asking me to be her boyfriend!

My mouth was preparing to say yes, but suddenly Aunt Manda crossed my mind. My face changed softly. "But Om has not officially divorced Aunt Manda."

Om Rey breathed. "And, the divorce process is underway. You also heard yourself earlier that Mother will speed up the divorce process. If you have interfered, the divorce process that can take months, can be completed in a few weeks."

Sure oes. Bu Sekar has many connections. Kusuma's family business has a lot, of course they have a team of lawyers who will help things like this.

I don't know why I suddenly thought of a question. I want to make sure before we get into a relationship. "I also wanted to know one thing."

"You want to know what? Just ask."

"Om, is Om really not feeling like Aunt Manda?" Many finally.

Although I'm sure of how Om Rey feels about me, I still want to know. However, Om Rey survived five years of a painful marriage before she decided to end it. His feelings for Aunt Manda must have been huge. Then what about now? Has he really forgotten it?

"There, in Om's heart there is nothing left of Om's feelings for Manda. The taste of Om for Manda is long dead. Probably only about the first two years of marriage Om still feels that feeling. The rest is just pain that slowly erodes that Om feeling." Om Rey paused his words. "Okay, Om will tell you something. At first Om did not want this story, because after all you are Manda's nephew. But this time it looks like Om will tell you everything."

"What's the story about, Om?" Askaqua.
