Mario glued to look at me who was crying sobbing. He quickly cupped my face with both hands
"I'm sorry Intan, I know I'm presumptuous, but I have no other way"
I could only lower my head by continuing to sob
And Mario could only sit on the chair next to me with his head down
"Thousand hours I've spent forgetting you Mario. I tried desperately to throw you out of my heart. But why are you re-invading my defenses tonight?"
Mario raised his head and turned towards me
"I've learned Mario's heartfelt lesson to let you go for the woman I saw the night he held your hand"
"I've learned to accept the reality of how she looks into your eyes with love. But why don't you appreciate my struggle Mario ?"
Back I sobbed in the finish I said the sentence
"Intan, I told you that I have nothing to do with that woman. If I really loved that woman, I wouldn't be able to propose to you again?"
I took a deep breath hearing Mario's defense .
"Either Mario, I don't know if you're honest or not. But I know that you never lied to me"
"If you know I'm not lying to you, then why do you still doubt me ?"
I immediately turned my body facing Mario
"Not hesitating, but worrying"
"What are you worried about ?"
I took a deep breath hearing Mario's question, then I threw my face away and looked straight ahead trying to wipe away the remaining tears on my face
"Hate your two sisters"
Now it was Mario's turn to take a deep breath to hear my answer
"You certainly know that Raisa and Tasya were back at my lesehan restaurant. I don't want what happened yesterday to make the mood worse. And now that you're proposing to me again and wanting to marry me, I'm sure my two sisters' hatred is growing. Because I knew that at any moment your two sisters would never like me and approve of me being their sister-in-law"
Mario turned his body towards me, then looked me in the eye with a serious look
"I ask you, what are you living for yourself for my two sisters?"
I was silent to Mario's question. And I heard Mario take a deep breath again
"Enough Intan. Enough you always think about how Tasya and Raisa feel. While both of my sisters never thought at all about how we feel. Now I'm asking you to, stop thinking about the feelings of my two sisters. Ask your heart if you still love me or not. And whether or not you marry me, that's all I need right now"
"I asked you Intan, Have you missed me just once since you broke off our engagement ?"
I took a deep breath again hearing Mario's question that I really didn't need to answer, because he himself would know if I missed him so much
"Jawab I'm Intan. I don't like didiemin at all!!"
"If I miss you, you'll feel it. If my heart calls your name, your heart will hear my voice"
"And if you remember me, it's because I'm here thinking of you"
"Now I'm asking you the same question. Have you ever thought about me and missed me ?"
Mario smiled as he shook his head towards me
"Cone, Intan... What is the question, hemm? of course every day I think of you"
I smiled bitterly at Mario's reply
"Because our inner bond is as close as the heart. And our hearts are feeling the same heart-vibrations" Mario continued
"I ask you once again, will you not marry me ?"
I turned my face to hear Mario's question. Take a deep breath and then look straight ahead
"Did you ever remember Mario when I left Umrah ?"
"You asked me to pray and call your name. And that's really what I did"
"In Jabal Rahmah, I even asked God to show me Who is the best mate. But somehow the moment that comes to my mind is you"
"And I only assume that if your shadow appears when I pray in front of the Kaaba and also in Jabal Rahma it is my illusion alone"
"And I keep trying desperately to throw you out of my heart. I'm sure you'll be much happier with that woman than I am"
"I'm a widow with two children Mario. Not a career woman like that woman. I'm not pretty, nor am I attractive. So what do you expect from a girl like me?"
Mario immediately pulled me into his arms. Which made me take another deep breath when my head stuck to his chest
"Don't ever say that sentence again, Intan, I hate to hear it. You know I never thought who you were and what you were. You knew I loved you".
"And if you think I love you now that you've become a successful woman's business, it's wrong. Because I love you just as much as I loved you when we were both in school"
Without I can prevent it, my hand returned Mario's embrace. And then I put my head on his chest
"I love you Mario, love you so much" I said
"I know that you love me very much Intan. If you don't love me, there's no way you'd want me to hold it like this"
I immediately pinched Mario's chest hearing his confident answer, which made Mario chuckle.
"So you want to marry me?" asked Mario back who I answered with a nod of the head. Then I raised my head so that our eyes clashed again
"I love you Intan"
I'm not answering Mario's love statement. Instead of re-gluing my right hand clasped his body
The two of us reflexes were released when Dani's motor light came on
And I hurriedly tidied up my hair and clothes
"We went home Brother" said Reno and Dani when they stopped on a bridge not far from where we were sitting
I nodded my head then told them to be careful on the road. Then the two nodded their heads, then Dani who was in front immediately put forward his motorbike
"Sister, I'm home too?" abraham said after Dani's bike was away
I fell silent and put my lips together to hear Ibrahim's question
"So right, there is Mas Mario." continued Ibrahim again because I did not seem to allow him to go home.
"He knows there's Mario, but he's coming home...."
"Yes anyway. But take it easy, brother, safe. Nothing ever happened, right?"
"Yes no papa Im, if you want to go home, just go home. Let brother take care of Intan tonight" replied Mario quickly
"About !!!" I answered no less quickly while glaring at Mario
"Was it going ??" said Mario
"You also went home, along with Abraham. I want to sleep too, because it's night time. Tomorrow if you want to see me again, you just come to the store"
Mario smiled and then rubbed the top of my head
"Well, if you want me to go home, I'll go home. Thank you, Intan, for taking my proposal back"
I took Mario's hand that had rubbed my head, then placed it on my face
"I love you Mario...."
Mario smiled as he nodded his head hearing my words
"Mas I first.." shouted Ibrahim who was already sitting on his motorbike.
We waved our hands at Ibrahim, then Mario quickly pulled my nape and immediately sipped my lips
If I cried when Mario kissed me, but this time I closed my eyes and enjoyed it
"I'm home, baby.." - wirily Mario, rubbing my wet lips.
I nodded my head and drove Mario to the front of his car
Before Mario entered, Mario turned his body towards me, then we both hugged
